EXPERIENCES/WORLD in a negative manner, and holding negative views of the
FUTURE).

schemas are activated and give rise to negative cognitions and patterns of information
processing that precipitate depression

form of CBT

RET (albert ellis) - ANS-is a psychotherapeutic approach that proposes that 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.

RET assumption (albert ellis) - ANS-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).

Operant conditioning - ANS-voluntary behaviors are learned through consequences,
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

Skinner - ANS-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 principles
have shown to be successful in altering targeted 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.

Universality (Yalom) - ANS-The recognition of shared experiences and feelings among
group members and that these may be widespread or universal human concerns,

Corrective recapitulation of primary family experience (Yalom) - ANS-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 they may
learn to avoid unconsciously repeating unhelpful past interactive patterns in present-day
relationships.

Development of socializing techniques (Yalom) - ANS-The group setting provides a safe
and supportive environment for members to take risks by extending their repertoire of
interpersonal behavior and improving their social skills.

Imitative behavior (Yalom) - ANS-One way in which group members can develop social
skills is through a modeling process, observing and imitating the therapist and other
group members. For example, sharing personal feelings, showing concern, and
supporting others.

Cohesiveness (Yalom) - ANS-Is the primary therapeutic factor from which all others
flow. Humans are herd animals with an instinctive need to belong to groups, and
personal development can only take place in an interpersonal context. A cohesive group
is one in which all members feel a sense of belonging, acceptance, and validation.
