Argosy University Online M1_A3_The Mozart Effect Cognitive Psychology PSY363 A01 Professor: Kimberly Wilkins Student: Chantel Perez September 3, 2015 Abstract The Mozart Effect is an occurrence that takes place when individuals listen to the two piano sonata. The results are that individuals can recollect information better. There are two studies that were conducted in association with the Mozart Effect.

Within the discussion there are specific suggestions for future research on comparison of Forgiveness therapy with other anger focused therapies. The recommendation is that the programs used should attempt to decrease or remove long standing resentment and they should be compared with those that highlight here and now anger management and behavior control. By doing this it would help in shedding light on whether the removal of resentment or control of someone would lead to affecting the behavior is the key to emotional health or not (Lin., 2004 et al,
There are four phases to FT which are uncovering, decision, work, and discovery. This therapy examines the injustice done to others, consider and make decisions on forgiveness of all involved parties, and learn the skills to forgive. It has been applied to certain populations. Forgiveness Therapy decreases the frequency and severity of maladaptive emotions rather than improve individuals' ability to cope with these emotions. “Given the importance of anger and related emotions such as anxiety and depression in the recovery of substance-dependent patients, we expect that patients in residential treatment for substance dependence could benefit from FT.” (Lin, Mack, Enright, Krahn, and Baskin, 2004) Forgiveness is the main feature to emotional recovery when dealing with chemical dependency.
The IAPT service delivery model for low intensity interventions is predicated on the stepped care model with Psychological Wellbeing Practitioners (PWPS) supporting its delivery. The Scottish Integrated care Pathway (ICP) for depression sets out standards for depression and defines low intensity therapy for depression as a brief psychological intervention for depression (NHS, 2007). Access to low intensity interventions is indicated within this stepped care model by the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE, 2009) for service users who declined antidepressant therapy and consideration for moving up the model to higher intensity interventions where medication was not effective or symptoms and presentation indicate moderate to severe depression . Table 1 summarises the differentiation between low and high intensity interventions and definition agreed within literature (IAPT, 2010; NHS, 2011a; NICE,

Outline and evaluate psychological therapies for depression? Cognitive-behavioural theories explain depression upon learned irrational and maladaptive thinking. Becks cognitive behavioural therapy works to challenge and alter the irrational thoughts and dysfunctional behaviour that is keeping the depression consistent. The therapist will first need to explore the patient’s background information and identify key irrational thoughts before the therapy can begin. Within the 3-4 months of therapy, it will involve behavioural activation to identify pleasurable activities the patient enjoys and try to make these activities be more consistent in their lives.

They are known to be a coherent group of tested general prepositions, which can be applied as principles of explanation and prediction for a class of phenomena. Theories are also developed based on concepts that are interrelated and are based primarily on facts which have been observed. Many theories importance is to explain human behavior, some of which are more useful and verifiable than others.
