Study Notes
Behavior Change Stages (Prochaska & DiClemente)
- Contemplative stage is described as integrating behavior change into daily life.
- Contemplative stage involves struggling with ambivalence.
Active Listening Behaviors
- Maintain eye contact
- Nodding and making eye contact
- Asking for clarification
- Combining all of the above
Physician Response to Elicit Change Talk
- A suitable response to a patient rating their confidence at 4 out of 10 is, "You've got some confidence, but not a lot."
Emotion Theories (James-Lange)
- The James-Lange theory proposes physiological arousal occurs before the conscious interpretation of an emotion
Active Listening vs. Other Skills
- Giving advice is NOT a part of active listening.
Placebo Effect
- Incorrectly believing that a treatment is real and experiencing improvement describes the placebo effect.
Precontemplation Stage (Health Behavior Change)
- The precontemplation stage is when a patient has identified relevant issues but has not yet consulted a physician
Motivational Interviewing
- Motivational interviewing involves a lack of argumentation
- It emphasizes supporting the patient's self-efficacy
- Rolling with resistance is a key technique in motivational interviewing
Diagnosing Addiction
- A physician's statement like "You have to admit you are powerless" demonstrates a failure to roll with resistance.
Autism Causes
- There's no single cause of autism; it's not attributed to maternal lack of bonding, a single gene, or poor prenatal nutrition.
Emotion and the Autonomic Nervous System
- The autonomic nervous system doesn't react in ways that are specific to emotions.
Unconditioned Stimuli
- A shock is considered an unconditioned stimulus.
Motivational Interviewing Approach
- A non-directive, patient-centered approach is consistent with motivational interviewing.
- Avoiding argumentation and supporting self-efficacy are key elements to the approach.
- Confronting denial is NOT consistent with this approach.
Self-Efficacy
- Self-efficacy is the confidence in one's ability to execute behaviors necessary to produce specific performance attainments. It is not simply the belief that one can accomplish anything or a humanistic theory.
Factors Influencing Self-Efficacy
- Mastery experiences, social modeling, and physiological/emotional states are factors that influence self-efficacy.
Patient-Centered Care
- Patient-centered care involves respecting patient preferences, needs, and values.
Paralanguage (Paraverbal Communication)
- Paralanguage encompasses vocal elements such as pitch, rate, and volume.
Responding to Patient Anger
- When a patient expresses anger at a colleague, a suitable response is to facilitate their concerns and how they were addressed.
Empathetic Understanding
- Empathetic understanding involves feeling with patients, not for them, and requires genuine concern for their experiences.
Reflecting vs. Paraphrasing
- Reflecting checks for understanding by slightly changing the phrasing; paraphrasing repeats the main points.
Negative Reinforcement
- Negative reinforcement increases a behavior by removing an aversive stimulus.
Non-Real Change from Placebos
- No real change in patients has been observed for some conditions who were exposed to placebos.
First Impressions
- First impressions are based on appearance, presentation, and communication style.
Nonverbal Communication
- Nonverbal communication occurs even if language is not used; it isn't always deliberate.
Learning by Trial and Error
- Learning is said to be trial and error when new things are tried, learning from the failures to avoid repeating them.
Verbal vs. Nonverbal Communication
- Verbal communication is typically more deliberate than nonverbal communication.
Classical Conditioning
- Classical conditioning is linked to conditioned and unconditioned stimuli.
