I can only provide the first 5 MCQ as they are mine :P

1. B       It is not D as long-lasting isn't the term used in the definition. The more correct answer is [relatively permanent]
2. B       Graduated exposure can occur through visual exposure but this is technically called [imaginal exposure]

NOTE - the Q was typed incorrectly. It should have been which of the following is INCORRECT?

3. D      Pure fact
4. D      Pure fact
5. B      Although C is true it's not part of the definition and isn't the "BEST" definition.

Are you giving solutions for the non-multiple choice parts of the exam, Camo? (or still in the process of typing them up and what not?)

Could you please explain the answer for question 6 - How can phobias be transmitted within families? For the transmission of threat part? And can a dysfunctional GABA system be a correct answer as well?

Mc 9 isn't A is it? Fixed interval isn't a specific number of responses it's a specific time period in which the desired behaviour was performed?
