RC553.D35R38 2009 616.89—dc22 2009003476 987654321 Printed in the United States of America on acid-free paper Preface In the 1950s, influential researchers and theoreticians (e.g., Noam Chomsky, George Miller, Alan Newell, Herbert Simon) departed from the behaviorist tradition and broke the intellectual ground for the nascent field that Ulrich Neisser (1967) termed ‘‘cognitive psychology’’ in his book by the same name. During this fertile period, Albert Ellis parted ways with both psychodynamic and behavioral psychotherapists to delineate a cognitive approach to concep- tualizing and treating psychological conditions. As early as 1955, Ellis applied the verb catastrophize (and later awfulize) to the way people think when they are anxious. After the publication of the article ‘‘Rational Psychotherapy’’ (Ellis, 1958) and the seminal book Reason and Emotion in Psychotherapy (Ellis, 1962, 1994), Ellis became a tireless advocate of a cognitive approach to psy- chotherapy. Although other professionals (e.g., Adler, Horney, Kelly) before him had stressed the importance of cognitions in the clinical field, they did not promote the cognitive paradigm as an entity in and of itself. It is fair to assert that Ellis’s rational-emotive behavior therapy (REBT), which highlights the integral role of cognition in adaptive and maladaptive functioning, is the oldest form of cognitive-behavior therapy (CBT) and represents the prototype of contemporary cognitive-behavior therapies. By identifying the manifold ways in which individuals react to similar situations, and by exploring how their attitudes, beliefs, and expectancies shape their reality and behavior, Ellis played a pivotal role in instigating the ‘‘cognitive revolution’’ in psychotherapy and psychology more broadly. Accordingly, it is not surprising that concepts derived from REBT have pene- trated and/or been assimilated by cognitive psychology, psychotherapy, and vi PREFACE many domains of mainstream psychology, including the psychology of stress, coping, and resilience. Indeed, contemporary cognitive-behavioral therapies, regardless of their stripe, share the following propositions, derived from or related to Ellis’s REBT: (1) cognitions can be identified and measured, (2) cognitions play a central role in human psychological functioning and disturbance, and (3) irrational cognitions can be replaced with rational cogni- tions and thereby abet functional emotional, cognitive, and behavioral responses in keeping with personal goals and values. Ellis’s ‘‘ABC(DE)’’ model is the cornerstone of REBT and cognitive-beha- vioral therapies. In a nutshell, Ellis argued that individuals respond to an undesirable or unpleasant activating (internal or external) event (A) with a gamut of emotional, behavioral, and cognitive consequences (C). The diverse ways in which people respond to the same or similar events is largely the result of differences in their cognitions or belief systems (B). Rational beliefs can be characterized as efficient, flexible, and/or logical. Rational beliefs promote self- acceptance and adaptive coping with stressful events, reduce vulnerability to psychological distress, and play an instrumental role in achieving valued goals. According to REBT, beliefs are infused with emotion. In fact, Ellis has argued that thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are intimately interconnected. Irrational beliefs (IBs) are related to unrealistic demands about the self (e.g., ‘‘I must be competent, adequate, and achieving in all respects to be worthwhile.’’), others (‘‘I must become worried about other people’s problems.’’), and the world or life conditions (‘‘I must be worried about things I cannot control.’’) and are associated with a variety of dysfunctional feelings and behaviors. According to Ellis, vulner- ability to psychological disturbance is a product of the frequency and strength of irrational beliefs, as compared to rational beliefs. Clients who engage in REBT are encouraged to actively dispute/restructure (D) their IBs and to assimilate more efficient (E) and rational beliefs in order to increase adaptive emotional, cognitive, and behavioral responses. It is notable that this general framework (at least the A-B-C part of Ellis’s scheme) is at the heart of most, if not all, cognitive-behavior therapies. Cognitive-behavioral therapies are the most popular contemporary therapeutic approaches (Garske & Anderson, 2004), and have steadily increased in acceptance and influence. Not surprisingly, thousands of books and scholarly publications have been devoted to cognitive psychology and CBT. Since its introduction to the psychological community, hundreds of papers have been published on the theory and practice of REBT. Some studies (e.g., Dryden, Ferguson, & Clark, 1989; McDermut, Haaga, & Bilek, 1997) have confirmed the main aspects of Ellis’s original REBT theory (Ellis, 1962), whereas other studies (e.g., Bond & Dryden, 2000; Solomon, Haaga, Brody, & Friedman, 1998) have made critical contributions to the evolution of REBT PREFACE vii theory and practice (for details, see Ellis, 1994; Solomon & Haaga, 1995). Furthermore, meta-analytic studies have supported the contention that REBT is an empirically supported form of CBT (e.g., Engels, Garnefski, & Diekstra, 1993). Despite the centrality of rational and irrational beliefs to CBT and REBT, it is also legitimate to say that no available book, monograph, or resource provides a truly accessible, state of the science summary of research and clinical applica- tions pertinent to rational and irrational beliefs. Our concern about this gap in the extant literature provided the impetus for this volume. This book is designed to provide a forum for leading scholars, researchers, and practitioners to share their perspectives and empirical findings on the nature of irrational and rational beliefs, the role of beliefs as mediators of functional and dysfunctional emotions and behaviors, and clinical approaches to modifying irra- tional beliefs and enhancing adaptive coping in the face of stressful life events. Many of the chapters in this volume represent international collaborations, and bring together and integrate disparate findings, to offer a comprehensive and cohesive approach to understanding CBT/REBT and its central constructs of rational and irrational beliefs. The authors review a steadily accumulating empirical literature indicating that irrational beliefs are associated with a wide range of problems in living (e.g., drinking behaviors, suicidal contemplation, ‘‘life hassles’’), and that exposure to rational self-statements can decrease anxiety and physiological arousal over time and can be a major tool in health promotion. The contributors identify areas that have been ‘‘underresearched,’’ including the link between irrational beliefs and memory, emotions, behaviors, and psychophysiological responses. The major focus of our book is on rational and irrational beliefs as con- ceptualized by proponents of REBT. However, the contents encompass other cognitive constructs that play an influential role in cognitive-behavior therapies including schemas, response expectancies, intermediate assumptions, auto- matic thoughts, and appraisal and coping. While important in their own right, these concepts are discussed in terms of their relation to rational and irrational beliefs and their role in cognitive-behavioral therapies and psychotherapy more generally. In addition to focusing on the ways irrational beliefs hamper ade- quate functioning, we highlight how rational beliefs contribute to positive coping and engender resilience in the face of stressful life events. It bears emphasizing that our book is not be an ‘‘advocacy piece,’’ slanted toward positive findings regarding REBT. In fact, where appropriate, the con- tributors directly challenge claims made by proponents of REBT and other cognitive therapies. Our intention was to produce a balanced, critical treatise that provides: (a) cogent summaries of what is known and what is

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
    EFPT Psychotherapy Guidebook • EFPT Psychotherapy Guidebook Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) Olga Sidorova Published on: Jul 05, 2019 Updated on: Jul 11, 2019 EFPT Psychotherapy Guidebook • EFPT Psychotherapy Guidebook Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is the most widely used evidence-based psychotherapy for improving mental health. Brief historic overview Cognitive behavioural therapy is a fusion of the behavioural and cognitive theories of human behaviour and psychopathology. Modern CBT development had three “waves”. The first, or behavioural wave was inspired and developed by notable people such as John B. Watson, Joseph Wolpe, Ivan Pavlov, Hans Eysenck, Arnold Lazarus and B. F. Skinner and comes from learning theory (Skinner et Pavlov). Learning theory is a concept describing the process of gaining, keeping and recalling knowledge. Behavioural learning theory assumes that learning is built on responses to environmental stimuli. I. Pavlov introduced a concept of classical conditioning where behaviour is a reflexive and involuntary response to stimuli. The exposure, which originated from the works of Pavlov and Watson, is a widely used instrument in CBT. It is a process of changing the unwanted, learned response or behaviour to a more desirable response. In addition to this, B. F. Skinner later shaped a concept of operant conditioning, which is based on the voluntary behaviour that is modified through the use of positive and negative reinforcements. The foundation for the second or “cognitive wave” of CBT can be tracked to numerous ancient philosophical ideas, notably in Stoicism. Stoic philosophers, particularly Epictetus, believed that logic could be used to identify and discard false beliefs that lead to destructive emotions and that individuals are responsible for their own actions, which they can examine and control through rigorous self-discipline.

  • Behavioral Therapy* Michael Mceachrane
    5 Capturing Emotional Thoughts: The Philosophy of Cognitive- Behavioral Therapy* Michael McEachrane Ever since Albert Ellis introduced his ABC-theory of emotional dysfunction in the 1950s one premise of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) has been the idea that emotional disturbances are caused by beliefs. Following Stoic phi- losophy Ellis argued that emotional disturbances are a consequence (C) of beliefs (B) rather than of activating events themselves (A) (e.g., Ellis 1962). Since then, beliefs have been the focal point of CBT – be it Ellis’ rational emo- tive behavior therapy (REBT), Aaron T. Beck’s cognitive therapy (CT) or the so- called ‘new wave’ of cognitive-behavioral therapies such as acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) (e.g., Beck 1979; Beck et al. 1979; Ellis and Blau 1998; Hayes, Follette and Linehan 2004). A second premise of CBT is that emotion causing beliefs are mentally rep- resented; primarily as ‘internal dialogues’ – what Ellis refers to as ‘self-talk’ and Beck as ‘automatic thoughts’ – but also as mental images (e.g., Beck 1979; Ellis 1994; Segal, Williams and Teasdale 2001). On the basis of this second premise, a central idea to the practice of CBT is that we can become aware of the beliefs that elicit our emotional reactions by becoming aware of the words or images that elicit them. This chapter examines these two premises – that emotions are caused by beliefs and that those beliefs are represented in the mind as words or images. Being a philosophical examination, the chapter also seeks to demonstrate that these two premises essentially are philosophical premises.

Thus, it means a set of tested assumption used overtime to produce a positive result. It also outlined the qualities of a good theory such as; meaningfulness, predictability, simplicity, comprehensiveness, usefulness and validity. The study mentioned its functions as; increasing the understanding of a body of knowledge through the explanation of some phenomena, encourages partway by which predictions are made and serve as a guide to research studies. The reasons for counselling theory were also outlined thus; providing useful information for both counsellor and client, helps in effective counselling, guidance and placement programme to take place educationally, vocationally and personal- socially. The study also mentioned the proponent of the theory as Albert Ellis (1959). It explains his ABCDEF theory where „A‟ refers to event,; B‟ refers to irrational belief and „C‟ refers to the behaviour that results from „B‟. His opinion on the use of „must,‟‟ should‟, ‟ought to be‟, His historical backgrounds and view of human nature were x- rayed as human beings being both rational and irrational, man having the ability to control his feeling and actions, emotional disturbances are not determined by external circumstances but his self-verbalization.

Introduction 1 Primal Therapy, a form of psychological treatment based on expelling neurosis through emotional expression, was developed by the Californian psychotherapist Arthur Janov. His work became well known across the Anglophone world with the 1970 publication of The Primal Scream (subtitled Primal Therapy: The Cure for Neurosis). It is claimed this book sold more than one million copies internationally, which – if true – makes it one of the best-selling psychology books ever. In 1968 Janov had established the Primal Institute in Los Angeles; Institutes in New York and eventually Paris followed, both of which are now closed. He has run the Primal Center in Venice/Santa Monica since 1989, while his ex-wife Vivian is currently Executive Director of the nearby Primal Institute.
