PART III Clhallllgnllllg IHiumallll Belhavnor 50 Principles of Behavior Therapy and Behavior Modification THE EMERGENCE of behavior theory represents a striking shift from the previous history of ideas in the western world. Since the zenith of Greek civilization, it has been customary to explain behavior in terms of such internal factors as will, desire, purpose, intention, belief, expectation, memory, and character. The experimental analysis of behavior, however, shifts the locus of causal explana­ tions for behavior from internal processes and events to external causes. In Skinner's words, "[This shift] quite naturally led to a flood of practical applications. An early stimulus-response formula was too simple and seriously misleading, but once the role of the causal environment was properly understood, a flourishing tech­ nology was inevitable." 1 This chapter examines the theoretical aspects of the application of behavioral psychology (technically, the experimental analysis of behavior) to the process of behavior therapy.

  • Behavior Modification Interventions
    Behavior Modification Interventions Least Intensive Interventions Response-Cost Lottery Designed to be time effective for teachers, this strategy can be used with individual students or small groups. Materials: • Index card, tape • Colored slips of paper (different color for each student) Preparation: • Develop a reward menu for each student targeted for this intervention. • Select 1-3 behaviors that you wish to reduce in the targeted student(s) and write out concrete definitions for each. • Decide on a time period during the instructional day that the Response Cost Lottery program will be in effect (e.g., 30 minutes during math class). NOTE: You may want to limit the length of the monitoring period at the start of the intervention, to increase the odds of student success. As the intervention proves successful, you can extend the monitoring period. • Decide how many points (i.e., paper slips) you will award to students at the outset of each monitoring period. (NOTE: For short monitoring periods, you may want to start with 4-5 points/paper slips.) • Prepare the lottery tickets. Use a different color paper for each student's tickets, so that you can tell them apart from one another. Or type blanks on student tickets onto which the recipient can write in his or her name and the date that the ticket was awarded. • Choose how frequently you will hold lottery-ticket prize drawings. NOTE: Many teachers find that once per week is sufficiently motivating to make the intervention effective. For students with more intense or severe levels of misbehavior, however, you may want initially to hold prize drawings more frequently (e.g., daily) and as students' behaviors improve, gradually extend intervals between drawings Steps in Implementing This Intervention: Step 1: Introduce the Response Cost Lottery Program to Targeted Students.

    1 A comprehensive review of behavioral activation treatment for depression 2 Xiaoxia Wang1, Zhengzhi Feng2,* 3 1 Department of Basic Psychology, College of Psychology, Army Medical University, 4 Chongqing, China 5 2 College of Psychology, Army Medical University, Chongqing, China 6 Abstract Behavioral activation (BA) treatment has evolved from a component of 7cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and has become standalone psychotherapy for depression. 8The rapid increasing application of tele-mental health approaches such as telephone-, internet-, 9and smartphone-based interventions with BA were emphasized. With its efficacy comparable to 10traditional CBT, and its evidenced-based cost-effectiveness, BA is promising to be developed 11into a guided self-help intervention. The efficacy across diagnoses and effective components of 12BA treatment were reviewed. With the rise of the third wave of psychotherapy, therapeutic 13components across diagnoses will be incorporated into behavioral activation therapy. However, 14extensive studies are required to examine the neural and modulatory mechanism of BA for 15depression, and to explore the feasibility and necessity of tele-mental health BA application into 16the healthcare system. 17 Keywords behavioral activation treatment; depression; tele-mental health; cost- 18effectiveness; guided self-help intervention 19 20 During its developmental process, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for depression has 21gradually incorporated and integrated problem-solving therapy, self-control therapy, traditional 22cognitive therapy, and other therapeutic components [1].

Reeb This study aimed to validate the Behavioral Activation Treatment Efficacy Measure (BATEM), a new evaluation instrument designed to assess an ongoing Behavioral Activation (BA) research program. The study posed three hypotheses, which predicted BATEM would show: (1) strong internal consistency; (2) an ability to distinguish between individuals with mental illness and/or substance abuse history and those with no such history; and (3) an ability to distinguish between frequent and infrequent program participants. Results supported Hypothesis 1, but were less supportive of Hypotheses 2 and 3. Outcomes for these hypotheses were mostly inconclusive and subject to methodological limitations. Results of exploratory analyses and recommendations for future research are also described. Keywords: behavioral activation, homeless shelter, psychometric, validation.

Integrating Logotherapy with Cognitive Behavior Therapy: A Worthy Challenge Matti Ameli Introduction Logotherapy, developed by Victor Frankl in the 1930s, and cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) , pioneered by Aaron Beck in the 1960s, present many similarities. Ameli and Dattilio ( 2013 ) offered practical ideas of how logotherapeutic tech- niques could be integrated into Beck’s model of CBT. The goal of this article is to expand those ideas and highlight the benefi ts of a logotherapy-enhanced CBT. After a detailed overview of logotherapy and CBT, their similarities and differences are discussed, along with the benefi ts of integrating them. Overview of Logotherapy Logotherapy was pioneered by the Austrian neurologist and psychiatrist Viktor Frankl (1905–1997) during the 1930s. The Viktor-Frankl-Institute in Vienna defi nes logotherapy as: “an internationally acknowledged and empirically based meaning- centered approach to psychotherapy.” It has been called the “third Viennese School of Psychotherapy” (the fi rst one being Freud’s psychoanalysis and the second Adler’s individual psychology).
