Preventing the Development of Observationally Learnt Fears in Children by Devaluing the Model's Negative Response.

However, planned comparisons comparing modeled to unmodeled animals indicated that, despite large effect sizes, children’s increase in heart rate from baseline to placing their hand in the box did not quite reach significance, F (1, 4) = 6.00, p = 0.07, r = 0.77, and no significant difference was found between the increase in heart rate from baseline to approaching the box, F (1, 4) = 4.24, p = 0.11, r = 0.72, or the increase in heart rate from baseline to withdrawing their hand from the box, F (1, 4) = 3.37, p = 0.14, r = 0.68 (see Table 1 ).
