Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy

Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy

Cognitive-behavioral therapies (CBTs) are grounded in the belief that our thoughts profoundly influence our emotions and actions. Advocates of CBT emphasize three core assumptions: first, that cognitions are identifiable and measurable; second, that they are central to psychological functioning; and third, that irrational or maladaptive beliefs can be replaced with rational and adaptive ones. This transformative approach to therapy has paved the way for specific models such as Albert...

Cognitive Therapy

Cognitive Therapy

Cognitive therapy, pioneered by Aaron T. Beck in the 1960s, is a structured approach to addressing psychological distress by focusing on the influence of thoughts on emotions and behaviors. All cognitive therapies involve the basic assumption that human beings have control over their feelings, and that how individuals feel about something depends on how they think about it. Unlike psychoanalytic methods that delve into unconscious processes or humanistic approaches emphasizing...

Factors Affecting Drug Response: Overview

Factors Affecting Drug Response: Overview

When it comes to infants and young children, they are typically administered smaller doses of medication in comparison to adults. This is primarily because their organ functions still need to fully develop, meaning their bodies are not as efficient at metabolizing or eliminating drugs. Additionally, their blood-brain barrier is more permeable than in adults. As a result, high concentrations of drugs can easily penetrate the central nervous system (CNS), potentially leading to neurological...

Modeling in Therapy

Modeling in Therapy

Modeling, a key technique in therapy, uses observational learning to help clients acquire and practice new skills by watching therapists demonstrate desired behaviors. This approach, rooted in Albert Bandura's concept of vicarious learning, plays a significant role in therapeutic interventions for various psychological conditions, including social anxiety, ADHD, and depression.
Participant Modeling
Participant modeling involves therapists demonstrating calm and effective behaviors in...

Area of Science:

Cognitive psychology
Educational psychology
Mathematics education

Background:

Fraction understanding is crucial for mathematical development.
Cognitive processes significantly influence learning outcomes in mathematics.
Identifying specific cognitive deficits can inform targeted interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate cognitive processing differences between adequate and inadequate responders to fraction intervention.
To identify specific cognitive skills linked to varying levels of success in fraction learning.

Main Methods:

Assessed 4th-grade students on 7 cognitive processes and 3 fraction outcomes (number-line estimation, calculation, word problems).
Grouped students into adequate and inadequate responders based on intervention response.
Analyzed between-group differences in cognitive profiles and fraction performance.

Main Results:

Adequate and inadequate responders differed in reasoning, concept formation, and listening comprehension across all fraction outcomes.
Inadequate responders on number-line estimation showed significantly lower reasoning ability compared to their other cognitive skills.

Conclusions:

Cognitive factors like reasoning and concept formation are critical for mastering fractions.
Targeted interventions should address specific cognitive weaknesses, particularly reasoning, for students struggling with fractions.
