The answer is: Flooding doesn't involve the use of anxiety hierarchy.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Usage of videos and images in therapy: This is not the main difference between flooding and other forms of exposure therapy. While some exposure therapies might use videos and images, flooding typically involves direct exposure to the feared object or situation without gradual steps.

  2. It is only used with PTSD and not anxiety: This statement is incorrect. Flooding can be used for various anxiety disorders, not just PTSD. It is a technique that can be applied to phobias and other anxiety-related conditions.

  3. It asks individuals to process their trauma within the first 72 hours of the event: This is not a characteristic of flooding. Flooding does not have a specific time frame like this for processing trauma. This statement might be more related to certain trauma-focused interventions, but not flooding.

  4. Flooding doesn't involve the use of anxiety hierarchy: This is the correct answer. Flooding involves exposing the individual to the most anxiety-provoking stimuli right away, without the gradual build-up that is characteristic of systematic desensitization or other exposure therapies that use an anxiety hierarchy.
