Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy01:24

Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy

92
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...

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

5.2K
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...

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 involves therapists demonstrating calm and effective behaviors in...

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.

The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison

50.2K
According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Chronic Disease Management
  • Epilepsy Self-Management

Background:

  • Self-management support is vital for chronic conditions like epilepsy, encompassing treatment, seizure, and lifestyle management.
  • Evidence-based interventions have shown to improve quality of life and treatment adherence in epilepsy patients.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess and synthesize the implementation experiences of the Managing Epilepsy Well Network (MEWN) programs.
  • To evaluate the scalability and rigor of MEWN program dissemination using the RE-AIM framework.

Main Methods:

  • The study utilized data from a survey of MEWN researchers and a review of program publications and documents.
  • The RE-AIM framework (Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, Maintenance) guided the assessment of program dimensions.

Main Results:

  • MEWN programs demonstrated effectiveness in improving targeted outcomes, with an average retention rate of 83.6%.
  • Key enablers included partnerships and peer educators, while barriers involved recruitment, resources, and funding.
  • Programs are being adapted and disseminated to various settings and populations, with strategies for sustainability and scalability.

Conclusions:

  • MEWN self-management interventions positively impact health and quality of life in individuals with epilepsy.
  • Training, partnerships, and technical assistance are key for increasing program scalability and addressing health inequalities.
  • Findings offer critical insights for translating self-management programs to broader settings.
