EMDRIA CE Credit Examination
1. The standard EMDR PTSD protocol (Shapiro, 2001) is normally applied to
targets based on the sequence:
- [ ] a. A. Present stimuli, then past events, then the future.
- [ ] b. B. Letting the patient select the issue and trusting the process.
- [ ] c. C. Past, present, future.
2. Survivors of emotional neglect who present with comorbid DSM IV-TR Cluster C
Axis II symptoms often show the following attachment classification:
- [ ] a. A. Secure.
- [ ] b. B. Dismissing.
- [ ] c. C. Anxious-Ambivalent.
3. These patients often show superficial characteristics of
- [ ] a. A. Competence, interpersonal skills, or emotional stability.
- [ ] b. B. Good verbal insight into their emotional process.
- [ ] c. C. Eagerness to form emotionally intense relationships.
4. The inability of survivors of neglect to regulate their emotional states is:
- [ ] a. A. Primarily the result of life threatening events (Criterion A events).
- [ ] b. B. Linked to lack of exposure to a secure, developmental attachment sequence.
- [ ] c. C. Due to poor nutrition in childhood.
5. A variety of human and animal studies indicate which neurotransmitter(s) play a
central role in maternal-infant attachment:
- [ ] a. A. Endogenous opiods and dopamine.
- [ ] b. B. Serotonin.
- [ ] c. C. Acetylcholine and norepinephrine.
6. Neurotransmitters essential to the development of right prefrontal orbital
mediated capacities for emotional self-regulation are stimulated by:
- [ ] a. A. Crawling.
- [ ] b. B. Gentle touch.
- [ ] c. C. Maternal gaze.
7. Patients with dismissing insecure attachment show the following characteristic
shifts:
- [ ] a. A. From hypomanic to depressed.
- [ ] b. B. Little awareness of emotional responses to perceived abandonment until they
reach the point of crisis.
- [ ] c. C. From idealization to devaluation.
8. In the Discrete Behavioral States model, Putnam asserts:
- [ ] a. A. Discrete behavioral states and pathways connecting them need to be
developed.
- [ ] b. B. Infants are born with all of the discrete states needed to function well.
- [ ] c. C. Discrete behavioral states are really metaphors without a physiological basis.
9. The PAT differs from standard EMDR procedurally primarily by:
- [ ] a. A. Using fewer repetitions per set of bilateral stimulation (eye movements).
- [ ] b. B. Focusing on the internal feeling state of a recent shared positive experience,
not focusing on early memories, and only attempting to improve the SUD and
VoC 2 to 3 levels without a body scan.
- [ ] c. C. Enhancing any positive feeling by linking it with a sensation in the body and
leaving out identify negative or positive cognitions.
10. Patients with histories of both neglect and trauma:
- [ ] a. A. Are poor candidates for EMDR treatment.
- [ ] b. B. May need affect tolerance work in the stabilization phase of treatment but also
deserve treatment for the impacts of adverse life events.
- [ ] c. C. Should only be offered affect tolerance and ego strengthening interventions.
