Modeling in Therapy

139
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.

One influential perspective on what motivates people's behavior is detailed in Tory Higgin's self-discrepancy theory (Higgins, 1987). He proposed that people hold disagreeing internal representations of themselves that lead to different emotional states.

Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

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...

Fundamental Attribution Error

13.1K
According to some social psychologists, people tend to overemphasize internal factors as explanations—or attributions—for the behavior of other people. They tend to assume that the behavior of another person is a trait of that person, and to underestimate the power of the situation on the behavior of others. They tend to fail to recognize when the behavior of another is due to situational variables, and thus to the person’s state. This erroneous assumption is...

Personality Disorders: Dependent and Obsessive-Compulsive

134
Dependent personality disorder and obsessive-compulsive personality disorder are two separate psychological conditions that influence behavior, relationships, and overall life functioning. Though both involve maladaptive behaviors, their core characteristics and motivations differ significantly.

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Clinical Psychology
  • Behavioral Science

Background:

  • Hoarding behavior poses risks to individuals and communities.
  • The influence of personality traits on hoarding is under-researched.
  • Understanding these links is crucial for effective interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the association between dispositional mindfulness and hoarding behavior.
  • To examine the mediating roles of self-esteem and emotion dysregulation.
  • To explore potential gender differences in these associations.

Main Methods:

  • Online survey conducted with 533 Chinese adults.
  • Regression-based analyses used to examine relationships.
  • Mindfulness, self-esteem, emotion dysregulation, and hoarding behavior were assessed.

Main Results:

  • Mindfulness was negatively associated with hoarding behavior.
  • Higher self-esteem and lower emotion dysregulation mediated this association.
  • Emotion dysregulation's mediating effect was significant only for women, indicating a gender moderation.

Conclusions:

  • Dispositional mindfulness can mitigate hoarding behavior through psychological mechanisms.
  • Emotion dysregulation plays a key role, especially for women.
  • Findings support theoretical models and offer insights for targeted interventions.
