| Provide a strength of the cognitive explanation to depression | The cognitive approach offers a useful explanation of depression as it considers factors such as thoughts and beliefs which are a key involvement in the disorder |
| Provide a further strength of the cognitive explanation to depression | Hollon and Kendall developed the Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire (ATQ) to measure the negative thinking associated with depression. Later on, Harrell and Ryon used the ATQ to compare negative thinking in 114 depressed and non-depressed participants. Depressed participants scored higher. (Shows there's a correlation) |
| Provide a weakness to the cognitive approach to depression | The individual may feel like they are to blame for their problems, thus resulting in the person to feel worse (Maybe) |
| Section 3 | Treating Depression |
| What is the aim of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy? | To identify and change the patient's faulty cognitions ... To help patients notice negative thoughts when they have them and test how accurate they are |
| Briefly, list the steps during CBT | 1) The therapist helps the patient to identify their faulty cognitions 2) The therapist tries to help the client to see that the irrational thoughts aren't true 3) Together, you set yourself goals to think in rational ways |
| True or False: The Therapist can sometimes encourage you to keep a diary, so you can record your thought patterns, feelings and actions | True! |
| Provide a strength of CBT (Ethics) | Overall, there are fewer ethical issues as it aims to empower patients. It tries to put patients in charge of their own treatment by teaching them self-help strategies. |
| Provide a further strength of CBT (DeRubeis et al) | DeRubeis et al compared CBT and drug therapy to the placebo in terms of effectiveness for treating depression. They found that both the drug and cognitive behaviour therapy were more effective than the placebo |
| Provide a weakness of DeRubeis et al's study on CBT | Drug Therapy was more effective than CBT. In certain cases, therapists lacked experience, thus resulting in the treatment not having a strong effect. On the contrary, drug therapy arguably doesn't require in maintaining as many extraneous variables, making it more effective. |
| Provide a strength of DeRubeis et al's study on CBT | Hollon et al compared participants from DeRubeis study after they were withdrawn from treatment (CBT and Drug Therapy), with participants who continued drug treatment. In the long term, those who were withdrawn from CBT were less likely to have relapsed after one year than those who were withdrawn from drug treatment. |
| Provide a final strength of CBT (Brandsma et al) | Brandsma et al found that CBT is particularly effective for people who put a lot of pressure on themselves and feel guilty about being inadequate. |
| Provide a weakness of CBT (Practicality) | Cognitive therapies may take a long time and can be costly. Although, it may be more effective when used with other therapies, such as Drug Therapy. However, this will only add up costs. |
| Provide a final weakness of CBT (Ethics) | Rather than empowering the patient, it may only add pressure and make themselves feel as though they are to blame. |
