Cognitive Therapy01:25

Cognitive Therapy

1.1K
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...

Beck's Cognitive Therapy

401
Cognitive therapy is a psychological approach designed to address distortions in thinking, which can lead to negative emotions and unrealistic beliefs. These cognitive distortions often influence how individuals interpret and respond to situations, exacerbating emotional distress. Below are some prevalent cognitive distortions, their characteristics, and examples of how they manifest in thought processes.

The Mantel-Cox Log-Rank Test

1.1K
The Mantel-Cox log-rank test is a widely used statistical method for comparing the survival distributions of two groups. It tests whether a statistically significant difference exists in survival times between the groups without assuming a specific distribution for the survival data, making it a non-parametric test. This flexibility makes the log-rank test particularly valuable in medical research and other fields where the timing of an event, such as death or disease recurrence, is of...

Cognitive Dissonance01:38

Cognitive Dissonance

37.5K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Gene Therapy00:59

Gene Therapy

27.6K
Gene therapy is a technique where a gene is inserted into a person’s cells to prevent or treat a serious disease. The added gene may be a healthy version of the gene that is mutated in the patient, or it could be a different gene that inactivates or compensates for the patient’s disease-causing gene. For example, in patients with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) due to a mutation in the gene for the enzyme adenosine deaminase, a functioning version of the gene can be...

Cognition and Behavior01:23

Cognition and Behavior

377
Social psychology examines the complex interplay between individual mental processes and social interactions. Historically, the field was divided into two domains: social behavior and social cognition. Researchers focusing on social behavior analyzed actions within social contexts, such as conformity, aggression, or cooperation. Meanwhile, social cognition researchers investigated how people perceive, interpret, and mentally represent their social environments. However, modern perspectives no...

Area of Science:

  • Digital mental health
  • Evidence-based interventions
  • Health service delivery

Background:

  • Primary care mental health services in Ireland are underdeveloped.
  • There is a need for accessible and effective treatments for mild-to-moderate mental health difficulties.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and highlight evidence-based computerised cognitive behavioural therapy (cCBT) programmes.
  • To identify cCBT programmes suitable for use in Ireland.

Main Methods:

  • Literature search across three databases and a university-developed web portal.
  • Inclusion criteria: at least one randomized controlled trial (RCT) demonstrating efficacy, internet availability, and English language delivery.
  • Profiled 25 cCBT programmes meeting the criteria.

Main Results:

  • The reviewed cCBT programmes target a range of conditions including anxiety disorders (generalised anxiety, panic/phobia, social anxiety, PTSD), depression, eating problems, stress, insomnia, pain, and alcohol misuse.
  • Twenty-five distinct cCBT programmes were identified as meeting the inclusion criteria.

Conclusions:

  • Computerised cognitive behavioural therapy (cCBT) programmes provide effective, low-cost, and low-intensity interventions.
  • These digital interventions are suitable for a wide spectrum of psychological problems.
  • Implementing cCBT, particularly within a stepped-care model, could significantly benefit Ireland's primary care mental health services.
