Ammonia Aversion With an Exhibitionist

A Case Study

W. L. Marshall

Rockwood Psychological Services Queen's University, Canada

This case study illustrates the effectiveness of a simple aversion procedure. Having an exhibitionist use smelling salts as an aversive agent effectively reduced the frequency and intensity of urges to expose and as a result, eliminated acts of exposing. Furthermore, these reductions in exhibitionistic behaviors markedly improved the client's mood and strengthened his self-confidence, thereby allowing him to expand his social life, begin a relationship, and plan educational upgrading to obtain a secure job. Suggestions aremade for the clinical use of the procedure.

Key Words: exhibitionism • ammonia aversion • urges • mood
