“(R. Paul & L. Elder 2006) The Aspects of Critical Thinking In addition to our ordinary level of thinking which involves making decisions and choices that can contain the whole spectrum of thoughts based on rational/irrational behaviors, urges, and assumption; Critical thinking requires that thinking be analyzed and assessed. In order to analyze thinking, one must: “Identify its purpose, question, get/receive information, come to a conclusion, going through assumptions, understanding the implications,
Marian Richardson Unit 4222-246 (LD 202) Support person-centred thinking and planning Understand the principles and practice of person-centred thinking, planning and reviews Outcome1.1 Identify the beliefs and values on which person-centred thinking and planning is based. Person Centred Planning puts the ‘person’ at the centre of a planning process and shifts power to them. It provides an effective way to listen and respond to people. The approach encourages us to take direction from people by identifying their gifts, interests and desires. This makes it different from traditional approaches in assessment and individual planning.
It also breaks down motivation into three different categories: intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, and amotivation. Intrinsic motivation is the most self-determined form of motivation and behavior (McDavid, Cox, & Amorose, 2012). Intrinsic motivation is a person doing something for themselves because they enjoy it or makes them feel better. Extrinsic motivation is less self-determined and behavior occurs due to reasons outside the action (McDavid, Cox, & Amorose, 2012). An activity done by extrinsic motivation may not be done because a person enjoys it, it’s often done because they want the end outcome.
moving from catastrophising (no one will ever like me) to a more rational interpretation (my friend was probably thinking about something else and didn’t see me). This in turn helps the patient to feel better, and eventually become more self-accepting. Another part of RET is unconditional positive regard which is basically making the patient feel valued as a human no matter what they say or do or event how they
There is also something called the difference threshold which is the amount of change needed for us to recognize that a change has occurred. Perception is the understanding of what we take in through our senses. It’s the way we perceive things in the environment. It’s what makes us difference from each other. The process of selecting, organizing and interpreting the information brought to the brain by the senses.
Additionally, it is important to note the major ideas of the sensory integration theory: “1. Learning is dependent on the ability to take in a process sensation from movement and the environment and use it to plan and organize behavior. 2. Individuals who have a decreased ability to process sensation also may have difficulty producing appropriate actions, which, in turn, may interfere with learning and behavior. 3.
The Belief component is what each of us as human beings chooses to believe or think about when it comes to the object of an attitude. The Emotional component is simply a person’s feelings that they have towards the specific object of an attitude. The Action component is how a person tends to act or behave when it comes to dealing with the main object of each attitude. All three of these components of attitudes being Belief, Emotional, as well as Action are affected through persuasion, conformity, and biases in different but yet also similar ways. Persuasion is known as an attempt that is deliberately made to change beliefs or attitudes through arguments and information.
Furthermore, modeling situations that relied solely on knowledge and computation were rarely able to predict outcomes in reality (Oatley, 31). Oatley suggested these differences arise due to the current CRUM models’ ability to devise technical plans, but inability to account for emotions which are intrinsically tied to cognition (Oatley, 31). The importance of emotions in mental representations and procedures will be discussed throughout the remainder of the
Mediation is based more on gathering information to find the parties common interests, to negotiate the needs and then come to a mutual agreement, whereas counselling looks at the person, their perceptions and feelings to bring about self-exploration and change. Mediation and counselling employ some of the same processes and techniques such as, active listening, reframing, paraphrasing and summarizing, however these skills are used in counselling to look at underlying emotional issues, but mediation is purely for resolving conflict (Hodges, 2009). Mediation is time limited whereas counselling can be over many sessions, counselling relies on exploration of emotions and interpretation of these emotions whereas mediation works more on negotiation to reach a solution (Messing, 1993). In this essay it will be shown that there is link between counselling and mediation and that some of the methods used can be useful in a therapeutic approach but will also raise an awareness of good practice in both professions. Mediation is usually a step taken to help avoid legal matters such as going to court, but mediation does have a more formal structure similar to what one may see in a legal framework the
