    Study Notes

    Behavior-Based vs. Insight-Based Therapies

    • Behavior-based therapies emphasize action to address psychological issues.
    • Psychodynamic and humanistic therapies focus on insight into thoughts and feelings.

    Systematic Desensitization

    • Involves teaching relaxation techniques and gradual exposure to anxiety-provoking stimuli.
    • Helps clients confront fears in a controlled manner, reducing anxiety over time.

    Exposure Therapies

    • Two types of exposure methods:
      • In vivo: Direct confrontation with anxiety-inducing situations (e.g., Client A).
      • Imaginal: Visualization of fearful scenarios without direct confrontation (e.g., Client B).

    Token Economies

    • Effective in various settings for promoting desirable behaviors and modifying problematic ones.
    • Utilizes a system of rewards (tokens) for positive behaviors, reinforcing behavior changes.

    Arbitrary Inference

    • A cognitive distortion where an individual draws conclusions without sufficient evidence.
    • Example: Jumping to negative conclusions based on specific events leads to feelings of depression.
