Describe how the cognitive approach has been applied to RET The cognitive approach believes that we are information processors. Our thinking and the way we process and interpret events can affect our behaviour particularly our mood. Therefore rational emotional therapy is linked to the approach because its attempts to change the way an individual interprets and thinks about certain events. Ret was devised by albert ellis in the 1950’s. it tries to tackle mustabatory thinking (the thinking that you must be good at everything and like by everyone) by trying to make the patient think more rationally about situations.
Prozac facilitates restoring balance of the chemicals in the brain, which improves mood, sleep patterns, energy levels, decreases anxiety and irritability (WebMD, 2010). The next recommendation is for Marla to begin psychotherapy. Marla will be required to change her way of thinking, to be less critical of herself, and develop optimism, hence, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy will benefit her. Concurrently, Marla must develop better coping skills, which will facilitate her to communicate effectively with family, friends, and co-workers, therefore behavioral oriented therapy is appropriate (Faces of Abnormal Psychology,
Because of Sleeper Curve, according to Johnson, TV viewers need to improve their skill to watch modern TV shows with multiple plot lines. (279) Johnson believes that “the Sleeper Curve is the single most important new force altering the mental development of young people today, and I believe it is largely a force for good: enhancing our cognitive faculties, not dumbing them down.”(279) In other words, Sleeper Curve is the main reason why it benefits the viewers. Johnson also stated that Sleeper Curves trained TV watchers, but the watchers also want a more challenging stories in the TV series. Thus, the ‘bad TVs’ also has to improve themselves so they can catch up. (289~291) I agree with Johnson’s claim of, Sleeper Curve makes the viewers improve so they Liu 2 can and will want to watch more TV shows.
It’s also easier to make the critical voice ego dystonic, something the client eventually rejects as “not me.” At the same time that you are identifying and naming the pathological critic, you can also introduce the client to his or her “healthy voice.” The healthy voice is the client’s ability to think realistically. By emphasizing and strengthening this ability you are positioning the client to begin talking back to the critic. Names that are typically used for the healthy voice include “my rational part,” “my accepting part,” “my compassionate part," “my healthy coach,” and so on. Choose a name that fits the client’s self-concept (i.e.,
She says that we should focus on things we did wrong and think about how can we improve ourselves to be better than people we envy(Holloway). We should think in a way: “Is it possible that other people are envious of myself?”, make a list of your achievements, think positive(Holloway). Exercise regularly and have a healthy diet to get rid of your frustrations(Holloway). Talking with a therapist or counselor is great help to sort out this feeling(Holloway). Holloway advises: “Once you get the confidence to move forward with your own goals, you will most likely be less worried about what is happening with someone
by trying to explain the phenomenon, it takes time in the consciousness to adapt to the positive idea (He is going off to a better place), relieving us from that unhappy condition in which we encounter. While our happiness gets momentarily disturbed, we assimilate the idea at our own pace. With this, we can be sure that even with the toughest situations that we can be facing, our happiness will get us back to normal when we assimilate the idea. Giving space to other kind of feelings than happiness is a good idea because will improve our sense of the psychological immune system. Given that we will be experiencing multiple feelings, thus our perception of the psychological immune system will be
Critical Thinking Application MGT 350 July 25, 2011 University of Phoenix Critical Thinking Application Critical thinking is the art of thinking about thinking while thinking in order to make thinking better. It involves three interwoven phases: it analyzes thinking, evaluates thinking, and improves thinking (Paul & Elder, 2006). It means by keeping the thinking process open to analyze the process of the thought and evaluate the best solution although the individual improves the thinking process. Critical thinking is a good thing to use when it comes to everyday life. People use this when it deals with shopping, school, work, personal life, others
Word count 2093 “A PERSONALISED INDUCTION WILL ALWAYS BE MORE EFFECTIVE” Discuss. Base your answer on theoretical concepts and techniques presented in class. In order to discuss the statement “A personalised induction will always be more effective” we first have to agree that inductions can be tailored specifically to individual clients. Based on the premise that the brain processes information received through our different senses, and we as individuals favour different translations of this information through different modalities as explained in the following essay, I would agree that creating an induction that allows for these translations of information, and tunes into a particular individual, will be more successful than simply applying a universal PMR. This might appear overly simplified taking the complex nature in which the brain processes information, but it is generally agreed that the brain takes information via a visual cortex, auditory cortex and an olfactory cortex.
The view of learning as restructuring and replacing old beliefs implies that transition involves unlearning as much as it does learning. A further hypothesis suggests that instruction may need to recapitulate transitions in the history of science to help learners transit from their own naive theories. Conceptual recapitulation refers to a means of remediating learning problems by retracing instructionally what should have been naturally occurring developmental stages for an individual (Case, Sandieson, & Dennis, 1986). But it might fit the historical recapitulation hypothesis as well. There also seem to be qualitative shifts in the mental models needed by learners to understand more complex systems, for example, in such domains as electricity (Frederiksen & White, in press).
A Personalised Induction Will Always Be More Effective Discuss with constructive argument. “…the unconscious mental forces of the patient appear as the real active agent…” Sandor Fereczi 1916 1 Like every other aspect in life, our conscious interpretation of our world and what we require from it, can be at odds with our subconscious demands of experience and people. We will with any given social setting adapt our speech and body language to best suit the recipient. We instinctually know how best to personalise our communication and adapt to the differences consciously and sub-consciously resulting in dialogue that we want to hear, and perhaps what we think we want to hear. Understanding the relationship between these two very different
