1. Superstitious behavior is common. You may have your own superstition (e.g., a lucky pencil for taking an exam) or you may know of someone who is superstitious (this is particularly common among professional athletes and performers). What do superstitious behaviors and compulsions have in common? How are they different? Why don’t they extinguish? How do “popular” superstitions spread to many people?
2. Compare and contrast behavioral and psychopharmacological treatments for anxiety disorders. Which approach has the higher empirically demonstrated success, according to Hooley et al. (2017)?
3. Describe the diagnostic criteria for OCD and discuss the treatment approach using exposure and response-prevention, according to Hooley et al. (2017). Provide a case example from the text or other scholarly source. Recall that a website is not a scholarly source unless it has a .gov address. Scholarly sources refer to peer reviewed journal articles located in the library.
