RC489.B4 H55 2001 616.89’142’09—dc21 2001047081 11 Preface This book is based on a conference held at the University of Nevada, Reno in June, 1999. The editors organized this conference in order to provide an opportunity for us and others to better understand the development of the behavioral therapies and to capture a part of the historical record before it was lost forever. Most importantly, we wanted to honor the founders of the behavioral therapies and to watch as this group of approximately 20 individuals interacted — most of them as old friends, but also perhaps for the last time, at least in this large of a group. The chapters the arise from this conference show the unique properties of these unique individuals. While participants had an outline of topics to address, each chapter reflects the topics that the presenters felt best revealed their intellectual history and the context and content of their contribution. The difference between chapters in toen and approach could not realistically be eliminated without muffling the very voices we wanted to hear. In the end, we made the conscious decision to give these leaders of the field the freedom to tell their story in their own way. We want to thank these individuals for taking time from their busy lives to make this conference a huge success. Although many of these founders are certainly of retirement age — all are clearly “flunking” retirement. Old friends met once again, sometimes after years without contact. Others met for the first time. There was much catching up and many great stories 12 were told. We would also like to thank them for sharing the stories of their lives and their work. These stories were often quite moving, and sometimes very funny. What these individuals showed us is that the story of the development of behavior therapy is not a dry story of purely intellectual commitments and technical developments. Rather it is clearly a story of deeply held values, caring, compassion, conflict, fate, and, at times, personal tragedy. This book is dedicated to these (and other) founders of our discipline. We also dedicate this book to the spouses and families of these founders. Many individuals brought family members and it was both impressive and touching. It was clear that in many cases there was a real partnership in which spouses not only supported but also clearly substantively contributed to the success of their partners. We also want to comment on one key aspect of the conference. Many of the founders expressed their deep debt and gratitude to two central figures — Sidney Bijou and Albert Bandura. These two individuals often worked quietly and behind the scenes helping others find jobs, training key students, and in general generously giving help and encouragement to others. The special gratitude and honor extended to these two individuals should be noted. We also want to thank Professor Leo Reyna for presenting a paper at the conference. Leo is one of the great teachers in our profession; for example, his influence on Joseph Wolpe was critical to the development of behavior therapy. Unfortunately, due to serious health problems he was not able to write up his fascinating paper as a chapter for this volume. 13 We would also like to thank supporters of this conference. Dean Robert Mead and Vice President Ken Hunter were particularly helpful. Their generous help made this conference possible. Finally, we also want to thank Tuna Townsend for his generous assistance on many aspects of this project. William T. O'Donohue Deborah A. Henderson Steven C. Hayes Jane E. Fisher Linda J.

O'Donohue, Deborah A. Henderson, Steven C. Hayes, Jane E. Fisher, Linda J. Hayes University of Nevada, Reno What is behavior therapy? But what history are we trying to capture in this volume? What is behavior therapy, or what was it, at least in its beginnings? It might prove useful at least for a general orientation to provide a few definitions of behavior therapy, particularly those that were offered around the time of its formation: “Behavior therapy derives its impetus from experimental psychology and is essentially an attempt to apply the findings and methods of this discipline to disorders of human behavior” (Rachman, 1963, p. 3). “The attempt to alter human behavior and emotion in a beneficial manner according to the laws of modern learning theory” (Eysenck, 1964, p. 1). “Treatment deducible from the sociopsychological model that aims to alter a person’s behavior directly through application 17 of general psychological principles” (Krasner & Ullmann, 1965, p. 244). “Behavior therapy, or conditioning therapy, is the use of experimentally established principles of learning for the purpose of changing maladaptive behavior” (Wolpe, 1969, p. VII). Bandura (1969) placed the principles of behavior modification within the “conceptual framework of social learning…By requiring clear specification of treatment conditions and objective assessment of outcomes the social learning approach…contains a self-corrective feature that distinguishes it from change enterprises in which interventions remain ill-defined and their psychological effects are seldom objectively evaluated” (p. v). There seems to be some consensus, at least among these various definitions, that behavior therapy is an orientation to understanding and ameliorating human suffering, through behavior change, that is influenced by principles derived from experimental psychology, particularly learning research. Behavior therapists have traditionally emphasized outcome research (and still do) and more recently some of behavior therapy’s subdivisions stress the importance

Abstract In the treatment of depression, while an examination of cognitions and behaviour is surely in order, the therapist must not neglect the emotional realm and needs to delve into the emotional nuances of depression, as it may differ from dysthymia to major depression to depression caused by anaemia and other medical realms. This paper will examine and explore the “common cold of psychology”, examining current issues and offering concerns about current cultural factors as well as concerns about suicide, resulting from depressive episodes. Keywords: Depression; Treatment; Behaviour Drug abuse: Some depressed individuals will self-medicate or attempt to sleep as sleep is one way of removing themselves from the Introduction situation. In a sense, alcohol and drugs are both avenues of escape for some individuals. Drugs and alcohol remove them from the constant pain and awareness of their perceived inadequacies.

  • 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.

  • Behavior Modification, Token Economies, and the Law
    Token and Taboo: Behavior Modification, Token Economies, and the Law David B. Wexler* Not surprisingly, legal concepts from the prisoners' rights move- ment have begun to spill over into the area of the rights of the institu- tionalized mentally ill. Since the mental patient movement is free of the law and order backlash that restrains the legal battles of prison- ers, it may evoke considerable sympathy from the public, the legisla- tures, and the courts. Commentators and authorities have recently directed attention to important procedural problems in the administration of psychiatric jus- tice' and to the legal issues presented by various methods of therapy. Legal restrictions on a hospital's right to subject unwilling patients to electroconvulsive therapy ' and psychosurgery3 are developing rapidly, and close scrutiny is now being given to "aversive" techniques of be- havior modification and control 4-such as procedures for suppressing transvestitism by administering painful electric shocks to the patient while dressed in women's clothing, and procedures for controlling al- * Professor of Law, University of Arizona.

PERSONAL PSYCHOTHERAPY 1 PERSONAL PSYCHOTHERAPY AND THE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF TRAINEE THERAPISTS by IAN CHRISTOPHER ABRAMS THESIS Presented to the Faculty of the School of Health Professions The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center Dallas, Texas In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF REHABILITATION COUNSELING PERSONAL PSYCHOTHERAPY 2 Copyright © 2015 by Ian Christopher Abrams All Rights Reserved PERSONAL PSYCHOTHERAPY 3 Abstract This paper aims to synthesize the literature on personal psychotherapy and graduate training in the helping professions to determine whether personal therapy should belong to the standard set of activities and competencies required of trainee psychotherapists. Though personal psychotherapy has a long history as a training tool, it is seldom formally required or recommended in programs today. Benefits to the clinician have been widely reported; whether clients benefit is a subject of ongoing debate. It appears that most psychotherapists eventually do enter therapy at some point in their career, but not necessarily in training. The paper attempts to determine what is of value to the trainee therapist and how it can be integrated with the goals of training programs.

  • Image and Imagination As Therapeutic Support. Know Oneself and Re-Educate Oneself Through Vision †
    Proceedings Image and Imagination as Therapeutic Support. Know Oneself and Re-Educate Oneself through Vision † Anna Marotta * and Rossana Netti DAD (Department of Architecture and Design), Politecnico di Torino, 10129 Torino, Italy; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] † Presented at the International and Interdisciplinary Conference IMMAGINI? Image and Imagination between Representation, Communication, Education and Psychology, Brixen, Italy, 27–28 November 2017. Published: 18 January 2018 Abstract: This research aims to identify and understand the possible approaches in psychological environment, through the images and imaginary as a therapeutic tool. The image is investigated in the film “projection”: this latter is not only intended as a visual projection on the plane of expression, but it is also the projection of the self, implemented by the director and the actors, but also by the spectator, who becomes a participating observer of the story told. An example that combines all these aspects can be identified in Hitchcock’s figure, for his film culture, for the recording technique, but also for his complex psychic characteristics. The critical synthesis of the most significant works of his film production, can be a possible example for the research proposed here. In particular, some elements of vision and representation were privileged in relation to the relationship between image, imaginary and psychological aspects. Keywords: imagination; vision; fantasy; metaphor; therapeutic aid 1. Introduction Mental images, such as dreams, are emerging symbols from the unconscious that can be investigated and understood to modify and enhance the approach to the real world, but also with oneself. To imagine is not always a simple process to put into practice: for some the production may be excessive or disorderly, for other deficient or problematic and moreover the mind may not be able to distinguish reality from fantasy.
