Did you complete the PLT (Unit 4 AoS 2 KKP4) and last lesson's GREEN Task (4.2.4A)?

• YES, BOTH! :D

• Only the PLT

• Only the GREEN Task

• Neither :(

The second step in systematic desensitisation is...

• learning relaxation techniques.

• the development of a fear hierarchy.

• gradual step-by-step exposure.

• identifying negative thoughts and feelings about the stimulus.

Treatments that address dysfunctional emotions, thoughts, and behaviours through therapeutic communication:

In CBT, dysfunctional cognitions and behaviours are identified and then modified to more helpful ones.

Organise these options into the right categories:

Groups:

(a) Cognitions

,

(b) Behaviours

• A belief that the phobia can never be overcome

• Catastrophic thinking

• Memory bias

• Embarrassment

• Avoiding social activities that may expose a person to their phobia

• Extreme fear

• A belief that the phobia can only get worse

• Avoidance behaviours in which a person avoids their phobic stimulus and anything related to it

• Not seeking help

Systematic desensitisation operates on the principles of​ (a)   . By changing the association of phobic stimulus + fear, into phobic stimulus + relaxation instead, the (b)   is replaced.

• classical conditioning
• conditioned response
• operant conditioning
• conditioned stimulus
• neutral stimulus
• unconditioned response
• observational learning
• cognitive conditioning

CBT can be effective immediately after the therapy has ended.
