  • Comparison of Early Maladaptive Schemas in Patients with Dysthymic Mood Disorder, Major Depression and Healthy Control Subjects
    April 2014, Volume 2, Number 2 Comparison of Early Maladaptive Schemas in Patients with Dysthymic Mood Disorder, Major Depression and Healthy Control Subjects Mehrdad Shariatzadeh 1*, Shahram Vaziri 1, Malek Mirhashemi 1 1. Department of Psychology, School of Psychology, Islamic Azad University, Roudehen Branch, Roudehen, Iran. Article info: A B S T R A C T Received: 10 Aug. 2013 Accepted: 25 Jan. 2014 Objective: Early maladaptive schemas (EMSs) or fundamental beliefs that underpin stable and trait-like psychological disorders are chronic and relapsing. In, active schemas in dysthymic patients with major depression have been compared with healthy individuals.The purpose of this study was to compare early maladaptive schemas (Young, 2003, 1990) in dysthymic patients with major depression and healthy subjects. Methods: For this study, 46 patients with major depression and 20 non-hospitalized patients with dysthymic during the year who referred to medical centers and clinics in Kermanshah (a city in West of Iran) were selected through structured interviews and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II), and 66 patients with mild problems who referred to the clinic were considered as control group. 15 early maladaptive schemas through Young Schema Questionnaire-Short Form (YSQ-SF) were measured. Results: Analysis of variance showed that maladaptive schemas was different in the three groups. Maladaptive schemas of emotional deprivation, social isolation, defectiveness/ shame, and failure in patients with dysthymic, and maladaptive schemas of Self-sacrifice, and unrelenting standards/ hypercriticalness, entitlement/grandiosity, were active in patients with major depression. Healthy people were not active in any schema incompatibility. Maladaptive schemas in patients with dysthymic were more than the other two groups.

Thomas Dowd1 (Kent State University, USA) (Recibido 22 octubre 2003 / Received October 22, 2003) (Aceptado 30 Noviembre 2003 / Accepted November 30, 2003) ABSTRACT. This theoretical study describes the phenomenon of depression and the use of cognitive therapy in its treatment. It discusses the nature of depression, the cognitive therapy of depression, and common cognitive assessment instruments of depression as well as some treatment techniques. Depression consists of five different manifestations; emotional, cognitive, motivational, vegetative & physical, and delusional, although it is the emotional manifestation which we tend to think of as depression. Three levels of cognition; characteristic self-statements, cognitive distortions, and core cognitive beliefs are discussed. Self-statement (or cognitive content) modification focuses on assessing, evaluating, and changing current automatic thoughts or self-statements. Cognitive distortions (or cognitive processes) are systematic errors in logic and reasoning that result in negative automatic thoughts.

  • Internet and New Technology Based CBT
    Dear colleagues, friends and distinguished members of the EABCT family; It is a great pleasure and honor to welcome you to the 47th Annual Congress of the European Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies (EABCT’17). When we started this journey, our destination to host you was Istanbul. Living in a world of uncertainty, here we are in Ljubljana. However, we all know that it is not the destination but the journey that counts and the only meaningful journey is the one within. I have no doubt that the charm of Ljubljana on top of the high quality scientific programme will make the difference between an ordinary congress and a truly memorable experience. We are grateful for the generous positive feedback we received following the past international CBT Congress organized by the Turkish Association of Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies (TACBT). This makes the present congress even more challenging for us in order to excel the success of the previous ones. The congress’ scientific and organizing committee has worked very hard to present you a programme with first class presenters. On behalf of the TACBT, I would like to express my gratitude to all of our esteemed colleagues who have kindly accepted to contribute generously despite the challenge of relocation of the congress venue. The theme of the congress is chosen as “bridging dissemination with good practice”. This theme is chosen on the idea that dissemination of CBT is highly important but “dissemination of good practice” is a vital requirement to maintain its prestigious, therapeutic and preventive status. We hope that the programme will provide delegates an excellent opportunity for professional development, networking and exchange of ideas.
