title: Differential application of cue-controlled relaxation in the reduction of general anxiety.
abstract: This exploratory study investigated the effectiveness of cue-controlled relaxation in the multiple-outcome reduction of general anxiety. Additionally, it examined the effects of matching the technique's presentation with trainee conceptual level. Results suggested that the technique significantly reduced general anxiety. Multivariate analysis of covariance also indicated that the training was differentially effective relative to trainee conceptual level, but not relative to the type of technique presentation.
