Exposure therapy, rooted in the inhibitory learning model, targets these drivers by violating threat expectancies. This translational study investigated the dynamics of fear and threat expectancies within and between 417 individualized exposure sessions for female patients with anorexia nervosa. It was hypothesized that the violation of individual threat expectancies during exposure experiments would reduce threat expectancies and fears, both within and between sessions. Whether the focus of the exposure experiments (eating\u2010related or body\u2010related) influenced outcomes was also examined.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Method<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Individually tailored exposure sessions were designed and performed to challenge idiosyncratic threat expectancies.

Both fear levels and threat expectancies also decreased across sessions. Notably, body\u2010related exposures evoked stronger fears and threat expectancies than eating\u2010related exposures, though both types of exposure led to similar threat expectancy and fear reductions over time.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>These fine\u2010grained analyses of the dynamics of fears and threat expectations during exposure sessions highlight threat expectancy change as a likely mechanism of therapeutic change.
