- Sheet 9 revision
- How would the cognitive theory explain depression
- cognitive explanations of how mental processes affect behaviour
- cognitive distortions
- schemas, negative biases lead to depression
- Beck's theory, faulty informatioal processes, negative biases, negative triad
- e.g "I am not good enough"
- Ellis' ABC model
- action
- belief
- irrational beliefs lead to unhealthy emotions
- consequence
- e.g getting fired from job, believing you aren't good enough, not looking for another job
- computer model
- cognitive neuroscience
- cognitive explanations of how mental processes affect behaviour
- evaulation of how cognitivists say depression occurs
- Free will, CBT assigns responsibility to client. Gives them the power to address depression with help from a therapist
- Not all episodes of depression have an activating event, explanation may lack validity
- Other approaches would disagree, biological component, often can't use CBT unles drug therapy is used first
- Practical applications, generally considered the most effective form of therapy for depression
- what is a variable in an experiment
- Factors, traits or conditions which can exsist in different types or amounts
- independent, control, dependent
- why is qualitative data better for studying depression
- provides depth and detail
- attitudes, feelings, behavviours
- creates openness
- encourages people to open up about topics not intially cosidered
- stimulates people's indiviudal experiences
- why people act in certain ways
- attempts to avoid pre-judgements
- why a particular response was given
- provides depth and detail
- explain what is meant by "event sampling"
- observers and researchers decide on specific events which seem relevant to the investigation
- recorded every time it happens
- what does randomization mean, why is it important?
- where you chose participants/ word lists/ pictures randomly
- e.g random sampling, target population is given a number and sample is chosen from a number generator
- eliminates investigatior bias, they have no control over the participants selected, or what group they're in
- where you chose participants/ word lists/ pictures randomly
- comment on what the mean and what the standard deviation is telling us in this study
- the mean score is almost 3 times larger than the women, suggesting they are much better
- the standard deviations are quite similar to eachother, so the spread of perfomance is similar of both genders
- what is content analysis, how would it be used to analyse a short clip
- a technique for analysing qualitative data
- can be catagorised and counted (quan)
- can be analysed in themes (qual)
- 1. watch a film clip or text
- 2. identify categories
- 3. watch again and sort into categories
- 4. conduct a correlation to investigate inter-rater reliability. Must be higer than 0.85
- a technique for analysing qualitative data
- How would the cognitive theory explain depression
