Exam 2: NSG 526
1. Group Therapy primary purpose: The primary purpose of group
therapy is to facilitate changes by the patient to address identified
problems.
2. A technique for dealing with an over talkative client and silence from
other participants in a group during therapy: make an observation about
the group's silence and invite the others to comment
3. the technique of "Information Giver".: During group members sharing
meth- ods they personally use for dealing with problems
4. CBT: consists of active questioning, homework assignments, and
dream survey. The therapist helps the patient consider personal ideas
and beliefs in order to increase the patient's realization about how
thoughts influence behaviors.
5. Attachment: Attempts to explain the dynamics of interpersonal
relationships between humans. A child needs to form a relationship
between at least one primary caregiver.
6. Mileu: Milieu therapy requires consideration of the client's social,
,economic, and cultural status.
7. Complementary Alternative Medicine vs Western major difference:
West- ern medicine focuses on what is done to the patient whereas
CAM focuses on mind-body interactions.
8. Beck: Beck developed the cognitive model of depression and the
concept that cognitive processing distortions underlie psychological
disorders
ACTIVE, TIME-LIMITED APPROACH
9. depression can be understood via schemas:: Beck;
cognitive errors, and the cognitive triad (i.e., negative views of self,
tendency toward interpreting experiences in a negative manner, and
holding negative views of the future).
10.Beck assumption: Distorted thinking contributes to and maintains
behaviour (symptoms)
11.Ellis: RET (Rational Emotive Therapy) a form of cbt
12.ret: unrealistic and irrational beliefs cause many emotional
problems. The purpose of RET is to identify an irrational belief and
dispute it through active, philosophical, confrontational therapy.
13.RET assumption: People make themselves sick anytime they
escalate a desire or preference into a demand or absolute must.
(People become who they become based on their beliefs).
,14.Skinner: operant conditioning
15.Operant conditioning: voluntary behaviors are learned through
conse- quences, and behavioral responses are elicited through
reinforcement, which causes a behavior to occur more frequently.
Positive reinforcement- getting a gift, or negative reinforcement-
removal of objectionable' or aversive stimulus
16.Skinner: Absence of reinforcement, or extinction, also decreases
behavior by withholding a reward that has become habitual. Teachers
employ this strategy
in the classroom when they ignore acting-out behavior that had
previously been rewarded by more attention.
Skinner's behavior model provides a concrete method for modifying or
replacing behaviors. Behavior management and modification programs
based on his prin- ciples have shown to be successful in altering targete
behaviors. Programmed learning and token economies represent
extensions of Skinner's thoughts on learning. Behavioral methods are
particularly effective with children, adolescents, and individuals with
many forms of chronic mental illness.
17.Universality: Yaslom: The recognition of shared experiences and
feelings among group members and that these may be widespread
or universal human concerns, serves to remove a group member's
sense of isolation, validate their experiences, and raise self-esteem.
18.Altruism: Yaslom: The group is a place where members can help
each other, and the experience of being able to give something to
, another person can lift
the member's self esteem and help develop more adaptive coping
styles and interpersonal skills.
19.Instillation of hope: Yaslom: In a mixed group that has members at
various stages of development or recovery, a member can be
inspired and encouraged by another member who has overcome the
problems with which they are still struggling.
20.Imparting information: Yaslom: While this is not strictly speaking a
psy- chotherapeutic process, members often report that it has been
very helpful to learn factual information from other members in the
group, for example, about their treatment or about access to services.
21.Corrective recapitulation of primary family experience: Yaslom:
Members often unconsciously identify the group therapist and other
group members with their own parents and siblings in a process that is
a form of transference specific to group psychotherapy. The therapist's
interpretations can help group members gain understanding of the
impact of childhood experiences on their personality, and
