Cognitive Therapy01:25

Cognitive Therapy

18
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...

Cognitive Learning01:21

Cognitive Learning

93
Cognitive learning is based on purposive behavior, incidental learning, and insight learning.
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...

Modeling in Therapy01:26

Modeling in Therapy

26
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
Participant modeling involves therapists demonstrating calm and effective behaviors in...

Operant Conditioning Intervention01:24

Operant Conditioning Intervention

21
Operant conditioning serves as a foundational principle in therapeutic interventions aimed at modifying maladaptive behaviors. Central to this approach is the notion that behaviors, both adaptive and maladaptive, are learned through reinforcement. By analyzing the environmental factors that reinforce problematic behaviors, clinicians can design interventions to weaken these reinforcements and replace maladaptive behaviors with healthier alternatives.
In operant conditioning, behaviors that are...

Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy

20
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...

Beck's Cognitive Therapy01:25

Beck's Cognitive Therapy

20
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.

Area of Science:

  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Clinical Psychology
  • Computational Psychiatry

Background:

  • Cognitive therapy for low mood involves challenging negative beliefs.
  • The role of improved recognition of negative beliefs and biased interpretations as a mechanism for symptom change remains unclear.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of a learning task and cognitive restructuring intervention on causal attribution tendencies.
  • To determine if enhanced ability to identify self-enhancing interpretations influences symptom change.

Main Methods:

  • Online randomized-controlled experimental designs with two studies (N=200 & N=164).
  • Participants completed a learning task (identifying self-enhancing interpretations) and a cognitive restructuring intervention.
  • Data were analyzed using hierarchical Bayesian models.

Main Results:

  • Both learning training and cognitive restructuring decreased unhelpful attributions and increased self-enhancing attributions.
  • Changes in attribution tendencies correlated with higher learning rates during learning training.
  • No evidence was found linking faster learning to attribution changes after cognitive restructuring; higher learning rates indicated better understanding of the task.

Conclusions:

  • Personalized training with feedback from computational models may augment therapy.
  • This approach could serve as a learning support tool in therapeutic interventions for low mood.
