cognitive therapy in 60 specifies that the way we behave is a Cognitive Model direct result of our thoughts components of cognitive theory we have thoughts about the situation situations get interpreted through a cog- the way we behave leads to feeling cer- nitive process and then tain emotions this reinforces the beliefs helps to protect us by latching onto expla- nations about events based on the past these interpretations help us to learn and interpreting ambiguous events grow problems can occur with biases in pro- cessing and this leads to behaving in maladaptive ways when confronted with stimuli you follow bias in info processing more similar patterns of thinking depression pattern of thinking negative view of self/world/future overestimation of physical or psycholog-

classifying objects or events as absolute- ly right or wrong, good or bad, acceptable all or nothing thinking or unacceptable, and so forth dichotomous black/white thinking selecting thoughts to support negative thinking selective abstraction eg focusing on 1 loss in a career of wins knowing what others are thinking mind reading eg she thinks I'm an idiot believing that something bad is going to happen even though there is no evidence negative prediction to support this prediction eg I just know I'll have a bad time Cognitive error where you exaggerate a catastrophising minor setback and turn it into a major disaster Cognitive error where you make a sweeping conclusion from a single inci- dent overgeneralisation eg I forgot my keys I can never remember anything magnify imperfections, minimise good labelling/mislabeling parts - making everything about you personalisation - 'why does it always rain on me?' 2/7  3005PSY WEEK 6 Study online at https://quizlet.com/_d4f45z quick

behaviour and emotions is to write down their thoughts and the key component of cognitive therapy situation that was happening, then tune in and analyse the patterns deeper, unconscious core beliefs that stem from early life experiences automatic thoughts represent shaped from individual traits as well as world around us competence and self worth core beliefs often center around rigid, global and overgeneralised triggered by current experiences relevant early life experiences cognitive conceptualisation of how core core belief beliefs form situation/critical incident automatic thought - emo - behaviour they continue to cause automatic thoughts/ cog distortions and then they issues with core beliefs don't get opportunities to refute core be- liefs and just find evidence to support it family
