(Krupa, Kirsh, Pitts, & Fossey, 2016)

Aaron Beck

Aaron Beck

  • Beck's early literature focused on information processing styled for individuals with anxiety and depression.
  • Proposed negative cognitive patterns facilitate depression symptoms.

Albert Bandura

Albert Bandura

  • 1977: publication of Self-Efficacy: Toward a Unifying Theory of Behavior
  • Self-efficacy " the belief in one's capabilities to organize and execute the courses of action required to manage prospective situations" (Krupa, Kirsh, Pitts, & Fossey, 2016, p.194).
  • A person is more likely to participate in tasks in which they have high self-efficacy.
  • A person is less likely to participate in tasks in which they have a low self-efficacy.
  • Bandura believed that cognition plays and imperative role in an individual's ability to self-regulate, construct reality, perform behaviors, and take in information.

(Krupa, Kirsh, Pitts, & Fossey, 2016)

Albert Ellis

Albert Ellis

  • Rational Emotional Theory: Developed in the 1950s, due to impractical beliefs, individuals become sad and create self-defeating habits. This theory focuses on the leverage of the belief method on behavior and emotions. These beliefs that lead to psychological distress include

1. "I must perform well to be approved of by others who are perceived as significant"

2. "You must treat me fairly-if not, then it is horrible an I cannot bear it"

3. "Conditions must be my way and if not, I cannot stand to live in such a terrible and awful world.

  • ABCDE Theory of Personality: defines the relation between feelings, thoughts, and behaviors

A. The Activating Event

B. The Belief System

C. Emotional Consequences

D. Disputation Challenges to "B"

E. The New Effects

Donald Meichenbaum

  • 1977 publication, Cognitive Behavior Modification: An Integrative Approach

  • Stress inoculation training: aids clients in coping after events that are stressful. This is also used as a preventative measure to inoculate clients to future stressors. This has 3 phases.

1. Conceptualization Phase: collaborative relationship is made between patient and therapist

2. Skill Acquisition: the learning of coping skills, self-soothing, self-regulation, acceptance, and relaxation

3. Application of Coping Skills: applying coping skills across increasing levels of stressors
