Study Summary

The research team hopes to use brain imaging and mental testing to learn more about specific phobias and the treatment of phobia. When given directly prior to therapy sessions, D-cycloserine has been shown to enhance the effects of therapy. This study hopes to identify reasons why D-cycloserine has this effect by measuring brain activity.

Primary Outcome

Regions of interest (ROIs) were specified based on previous research and included amygdala, insula, dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), dorsolateral PFC (dlPFC), and hippocampus. Multiple regression analyses were used to examine differences in response between experimental conditions (spider versus butterfly images). For significant clusters of activation within ROIs, the average max percent signal change is reported. For other regions, the average max percent signal change is reported withi
