Theory - correct answer Maladaptive behavior is associated with patterns of thinking and response that
do not result in mentally healthy outcomes. The focus of therapy is on the present rather than the past.
The central premise is that behavior is maintained by its consequences:
• Consequences that accelerate behavior are called reinforcers
• Consequences that decelerate behavior are called punishers
Treatment - correct answer The goal of cognitive-behavioral therapy is to change or substitute these
patterns with more realistic and useful thoughts and responses.
Relevance - correct answer It is used to treat Depression, anxiety disorders, phobias and other forms of
mental disorders. Medication is often used in conjunction with this approach to treat mood disorders
and more severe forms of mental disorders.
Cognitive Therapy is based on? - correct answer Cognitive therapy is based on the theory that individuals
with depression, anxiety and other emotional disorders have maladaptive patterns of information
processing and behavioral-related difficulties.
Primary Target - correct answer The identification of negative or distorted automatic thoughts.
What are automatic thoughts - correct answer The relatively autonomous thoughts that occur rapidly
while an individual is in the midst of a particular situation or is recalling significant events from the past.
Automatic thoughts are frequently based on faulty logic or errors in reasoning. Cognitive therapy is
directed, in part, at helping patients recognize and change these cognitive errors (sometimes called
cognitive distortions).
, Negative automatic thoughts - correct answer Negative automatic thoughts can be associated with
behaviors (e.g., helplessness, withdrawal or avoidance) that make the problem worse. In depression or
anxiety disorders, there is often a "vicious cycle" of dysfunctional cognitions, emotions and behaviors.
Patients are taught - correct answer In cognitive therapy, patients are usually taught how to detect
cognitive errors and to use this skill in
developing a more rational style of thinking
Schemas - correct answer cognitive structures are
thought to be the templates, or basic rules, for interpreting information from the environment.
Techniques Cognitive - correct answer challenge thoughts, challenge assumptions, journaling, mental
imagery, thought stopping, self instruct training, role playing or role reversal

Therapy (RET), focuses on altering client's patterns of irrational thinking to reduce maladaptive behavior
