Lazarus's Cognitive Appraisal Theory01:20

Lazarus's Cognitive Appraisal Theory

976
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.

Theory of Attribution II: Kelley's Covariation Theory

195
Attribution theory plays a crucial role in social psychology, helping to explain how individuals interpret the causes of behavior. One prominent model within this field is Harold Kelley's covariation theory, which provides a systematic approach to determining whether internal traits or external circumstances drive a person's actions. The model posits that individuals rely on three key types of information—consensus, consistency, and distinctiveness—to make these judgments.Consensus:...

The Influence of Cognition on Affect

100
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...

The Influence of Affect on Cognition

133
Positive affect significantly influences cognitive processes, including evaluation, memory, creativity, and social judgments. Compared to negative affect, positive emotional states promote more favorable interpretations of stimuli, cognitive flexibility, and heuristic processing. These effects highlight emotions' powerful role in shaping how individuals perceive, remember, and interact with the world.Influence on Evaluation and AttributionWhen individuals experience positive affect, they are...

Beck's Cognitive Therapy

192
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.

Cognitive Dissonance01:38

Cognitive Dissonance

35.7K
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...

Area of Science:

  • Occupational Health Psychology
  • Neuroscience
  • Clinical Psychology

Background:

  • Burnout is a prevalent issue in the general working population.
  • Cognitive functioning can be impacted by psychological distress.
  • The interplay between burnout, mental health, and cognitive performance requires further investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the relationship between burnout and cognitive functioning.
  • To assess the associations of depression, anxiety, and family support with burnout and cognitive functioning.
  • To determine if depression, anxiety, and family support moderate the burnout-cognitive functioning relationship.

Main Methods:

  • Administered seven cognitive tasks to assess five cognitive domains (executive functions, working memory, memory, attention/speed of processing, visuospatial abilities).
  • Utilized validated questionnaires: Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and Family Support Scale.
  • Included employees from the general working population.

Main Results:

  • Burnout and perceived family support were significantly associated with certain aspects of cognitive functioning.
  • Perceived family support was inversely related to burnout.
  • Depression, anxiety, and perceived family support did not moderate the burnout-cognitive functioning relationship.
  • Positive associations were found between burnout, depression, and anxiety.

Conclusions:

  • Cognitive deficits, depression, and anxiety are common in individuals experiencing burnout.
  • Perceived family support plays a crucial role in maintaining mental health and cognitive functioning.
  • Findings suggest potential targets for interventions to mitigate burnout and its cognitive consequences.
