EMD was changed to EMDR in what year?
- A.
1990
- B.
1991
- C.
1992
- D.
1993
Correct Answer
A. 1990Explanation
EMD stands for Eye Movement Desensitization, which is a psychotherapy technique used to treat trauma and PTSD. In 1990, this technique was modified and became known as EMDR, which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. This modification involved incorporating bilateral stimulation, such as eye movements, to help process traumatic memories and reduce their impact. Therefore, the correct answer is 1990, as that was the year when EMD was changed to EMDR.Rate this question:

The change from EMD to EMDR denotes a shift of emphasis from what to what?
- A.
Desensitization to information retrieval
- B.
Desensitization to reprocessing
- C.
Desensitization to information processing
- D.
Desensitization to installation
Correct Answer
C. Desensitization to information processingExplanation
The change from EMD to EMDR denotes a shift of emphasis from desensitization to information processing. EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, which suggests that the focus is not only on desensitizing the individual but also on processing the information related to the traumatic event. This implies that EMDR aims to help individuals process and integrate the traumatic memories, thoughts, and emotions, rather than simply desensitizing them to the distressing stimuli.Rate this question:

- A.
Fluoxetine
- B.
Citalopram
- C.

The correct answer is "a and b above" because published research has shown positive results when comparing EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to both Fluoxetine and Citalopram, which are psychotropic medications commonly used to treat depression and anxiety disorders. EMDR is a psychotherapy approach that has been found to be effective in treating trauma-related conditions, and it has been shown to be as effective as medication in some cases. Prazosin, on the other hand, is not a psychotropic medication commonly used for treating depression or anxiety disorders, so it is not included in the comparison.Rate this question:
