The “E” and “P” components in ERP refer to response (or ritual) prevention. It is not enough to provoke the illogical fear; we must prevent any response in the form of rituals from occurring. If one ritualizes after the exposure, it undoes the hard work because habituation and/or inhibitory learning cannot occur.
