Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping02:05

Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

43.4K
People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage. Calling his theory dramaturgy, Goffman believed that we use “impression management” to present ourselves to others as we hope to be perceived. Each situation is a new scene, and individuals perform different roles depending on who is present (Goffman, 1959). Think about...

Self-Regulation01:25

Self-Regulation

190
Self-regulation, also known as self-control, encompasses a range of cognitive and behavioral processes that allow individuals to adjust their internal states and outward actions to align with socially acceptable norms and long-term goals. It plays a fundamental role in adaptive functioning, from resisting impulsive behaviors to persisting through challenging tasks. While its benefits are widely recognized, self-regulation is not limitless. Muraven and Baumeister's theory posits that...

The Influence of Cognition on Affect

166
Cognition plays a pivotal role in shaping emotional experiences, as demonstrated by Schachter and Singer’s two-factor theory of emotion. According to this model, emotion arises from a combination of physiological arousal and cognitive interpretation. The body’s physiological response to stimuli is ambiguous and only gains emotional significance through cognitive labeling. For instance, an increased heart rate and adrenaline surge while standing near an attractive person may be...

Psychological and Sociocultural Causes of Schizophrenia

428
Schizophrenia, a complex psychiatric disorder, has been historically misunderstood. Early psychological theories attributed its origins to childhood trauma and unresponsive parenting. However, contemporary research largely rejects these notions, favoring the vulnerability-stress hypothesis. This model proposes that individuals with a genetic predisposition to schizophrenia may develop the disorder following exposure to significant environmental stressors. Notably, studies on high-risk...

Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy01:24

Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy

312
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...

Lazarus's Cognitive Appraisal Theory01:20

Lazarus's Cognitive Appraisal Theory

1.5K
Cognitive psychologist Richard Lazarus proposed the cognitive-mediational theory of emotions, which emphasizes how individuals' assessments of stressors significantly affect their experience of stress. According to Lazarus, the stress response is determined by a two-step appraisal process: primary appraisal and secondary appraisal. These cognitive appraisals help individuals evaluate the potential impact of a stressor and determine the adequacy of their coping resources.
Primary Appraisal:...

Area of Science:

  • Psychiatry
  • Psychology
  • Neuroscience

Background:

  • Emotion regulation difficulties are common in alcohol addiction.
  • Metacognitive beliefs may influence outcomes in early abstinence.
  • Understanding these factors is crucial for effective treatment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the relationship between emotion regulation, metacognitive beliefs, and craving in early abstinence.
  • To identify predictors of relapse risk in alcohol addiction treatment.
  • To inform residential rehabilitation strategies.

Main Methods:

  • Sixty-five patients in a 28-day alcohol addiction rehabilitation program were assessed.
  • Data collected via semi-structured interviews and self-report questionnaires at admission, early abstinence (T0), and pre-discharge (T1).
  • Comparison of outcomes between abstinent and relapsed groups at 1-month follow-up.

Main Results:

  • Psychological distress symptoms decreased post-rehabilitation.
  • Improvements noted in most emotional, cognitive, and metacognitive scales, except 'Cognitive harm' and 'Awareness'.
  • Lower 'Emotional Clarity' was associated with early relapse and higher craving levels at discharge.

Conclusions:

  • Difficulties in emotion regulation, particularly 'Emotional Clarity', differentiate between abstinent and relapsed individuals.
  • 'Emotional Clarity' is a significant factor associated with craving and early relapse.
  • Targeting emotional clarity may enhance alcohol addiction treatment outcomes.
