One interesting fact about phobias is that they can develop through observational learning. For example, a person may develop a phobia of spiders after seeing someone else react with fear or disgust in the presence of a spider, even if they have not had a negative experience with spiders themselves. This is known as vicarious conditioning and is a type of classical conditioning that can contribute to the development of phobias.
If we flip this over, surely it can work the other way?
