Cognitive-behavioral theory is a conceptual statements that act as a rule from the events, mostly from framework mainly known for its application to psychotherapy the negative events. Going through negative events the mind (cognitive-behavioral therapy; CBT) developed by Albert Ellis extracts general conclusion from them in order to generate a (1962) and Aaron Beck (1876). The main idea of the CBT is coping response. Most of the time, these general conclusions are that not the external events makes us feel in a certain way but irrational and are called irrational beliefs. Usually people are not our interpretation of the events. From the CBT perspective, used to analyze a situation in order to be aware of their thoughts. in order to make a stable in time change in one’s emotions Specific questions are used by practitioners to detect client`s and behaviors we need to change our cognitions (Bernard & thoughts like “What thoughts did you have in that situation?”, David, 2018). CBT uses cognitive disputing, problem solving “Does the situation say something about yourself/other/world?”, strategies, imaginary techniques and homework between sessions “What words came into your mind in that exact moment?”. in order to promote the cognitive change. CBC took from CBT Sometimes thoughts are easy to find and sometime it need a little the conceptual framework as well as some techniques and the bit of time. In our example, the student might think “I will fail, structure of the sessions. In CBC coaches use evaluation before it will be an awful presentation”, “I will receive a bad grade”, “My the coaching process in order to see all the aspects of a client`s colleagues will think I am not smart enough”.

This review attempts to bridge the insights gained from specific areas of social, clinical, and counseling psychology with the executive coaching literature. The article reviews and discusses theoretical ap- proaches to executive coaching, the phenomena of resistance and ambivalence, the psychological theories of reactance and self-determination, and the therapeutic approach of motivational interviewing. The author adopts a relational perspective to resistance to change, describes the conditions under which motivational interviewing might be useful as an executive coaching approach, and notes that the approach is currently underutilized and in need of further research to support its effectiveness. Keywords: motivational interviewing, executive coaching, reactance, self-determination, transtheoretical model of intentional change Coaching is a key strategy for the development of professionals because it addresses developmental issues and helps increase performance (Collins & Palmer, 2011).

  • Conceptual Framework for a Positive Psychology Coaching Practice Jolanta Burke
    Jolanta Burke Paper Conceptual framework for a positive psychology coaching practice Jolanta Burke The complementary nature of positive psychology and coaching psychology has long been recognised by both researchers and practitioners. The last decade saw a tenfold increase of articles relating to positive psychology coaching and even more literature attempting to apply some of the findings from positive psychology in a coaching practice. However, despite the interest and the complexity of both fields, there is a lack of systematic approach to this new practice. The current paper introduces the Conceptual Framework for Positive Psychology Coaching Practice, the aim of which is to offer advice to both practitioners and researchers of the elements necessary to exist, in order to practise positive psychology coaching, as well as inform the policy and curriculum of programmes teaching positive psychology coaching in third level education.

THOMPSON2 erspectives of female collegiate softball athletes (n = 41) attending Puniversities (n = 25) in the United States classified as National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I teams, were examined in this study. Using Self-determination theory (SDT; Ryan & Deci, 2000) as a guide, structured interviews were conducted to assess athletes’ perspectives of head coach behaviors that influenced competence and motivation. Content analysis followed existential phenomenological interpretation methods and revealed three primary themes that influenced motivation: athletes’ perceived competence, coach-related factors (e.g., behaviors, strategies), and coach- athlete communication. Athletes acknowledge the head coach was a major influence on perceptions of competence. Perceptions of coach-athlete communication (including verbal communication) were the greatest influence on athlete motivation. Athletes were more motivated to perform when the head coach’s communication was clear and direct. Athletes’ motivation was most negatively influenced when the coach avoided communication or ignored athletes after a performance attempt. These findings are further explored as they relate to coaching interventions. Keywords: motivation, coaching, communication 1 College of Education, Augusta University

Applied schools; performance; development; well-being in educational contexts, the practice of coaching psychology has the potential to have a positive impact by supporting children and adults to achieve enhanced standards of functioning and well-being. It therefore represents a way in which educational psychologists (EPs) might elect to diversify their practice. However, EPs are disproportionately under-represented in the development of this emerging field. This article charts the birth and evolution of contemporary coaching psychology, and presents a case study illustrating the application of this methodology in a school context.

Coaching in an Educational Setting Utilizing “Techniques of Change”: Enhancing Engagement with Learning in a Post-16 Educational Setting VOLDIS KUDLISKIS Abstract The purpose of this study was to explore whether or not Techniques of Change associated with Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP) could enhance engagement with learning for boys in the post-16 education setting. This was an action research case study that utilized a mixed methods approach. Participants were coached by a qualified NLP practitioner and used NLP workbooks to aid and enhance understanding of “Techniques of Change” associated with NLP. Participants also engaged with a pretest and posttest questionnaire and participated in semi-structured interviews. The study predominantly sits within the interpretivist paradigm. It is a single-site, multi- voice study. “Positions of Consensus” are presented in relation to Techniques of Change enhancing boys’ engagement with learning. The outcome of this research provides some speculative evidence that Techniques of Change can enhance engagement with learning for Year 13 males.
