Response expectancy as a determinant of experience and behavior.

TL;DR: For instance, response expectancies, defined as ex- pectancies of the occurrence of non-volitional responses, have generally been ignored in theories of learning as mentioned in this paper, and the means by which re- sponse expectancies affect experience, physiology, and behavior are hypothesized to vary as a function of re-sponse mode.

The role of expectancy and physiological feedback in fear research: A review with special reference to subject characteristics

TL;DR: A review of the expectancy literature in fear research indicates that a subject's characteristic of intensity of fear is related to whether demand characteristic effects confound treatment effects as discussed by the authors, suggesting that more research effort should be devoted to the interaction of motoric, verbal, and physiological components of fear and the role of individual differences in those components and their modification.

The development of a scale to measure fear.

TL;DR: The Fear Survey Schedule-II (FSS-II) correlated positively with the TMAS, Welsh's A-Scale, and Bendig's Emotionality Scale and a low negative correlation with social desirability was found.

Systematic desensitization, therapeutically oriented instructions and selective positive reinforcement

TL;DR: An analysis of variance for a factorial design indicated that only instructions had a significant effect; the reinforcement and interaction factors were not significant.
