Verbal BehaviorVerbal Behavior ou Comportement verbal est le titre d'un livre de Burrhus Frederic Skinner. Il paraît en 1957, et est une analyse théorique du comportement linguistique du point de vue scientifique de l'analyse du comportement ou behaviorisme. Le comportement linguistique, d'après , obéit aux mêmes règles que d'autres comportements. Il s'en distingue cependant par le fait qu'il n’est pas directement renforcé par l'environnement physique, mais seulement indirectement par le comportement des autres personnes.
Behavioral activationBehavioral activation (BA) is a third generation behavior therapy for treating depression. Behavioral activation primarily emphasizes engaging in positive and enjoyable activities to enhance one's mood. It is one form of functional analytic psychotherapy, which is based on a Skinnerian psychological model of behavior change, generally referred to as applied behavior analysis. This area is also a part of what is called clinical behavior analysis (CBA) and makes up one of the most effective practices in the professional practice of behavior analysis.
Exposition (psychologie)L'exposition, également appelée thérapie d'exposition, est une technique de désensibilisation utilisée en psychothérapie comportementale. L'exposition peut être imaginaire ou réelle. L'exposition réelle consiste en une exposition répétée, progressive et contrôlée, à l'environnement posant problème, dans l'objectif de désensibiliser le patient. La thérapie d'exposition peut comprendre l'identification des pensées qui surgissent face à l'environnement, la réflexion sur ces pensées, et le changement des pensées si elles sont inappropriées.
Community reinforcement approach and family trainingCommunity reinforcement approach and family training (CRAFT) is a behavior therapy approach in psychotherapy for treating addiction developed by Robert J. Meyers in the late 1970s. Meyers worked with Nathan Azrin in the early 1970s whilst he was developing his own community reinforcement approach (CRA) which uses operant conditioning (also called contingency management) techniques to help people learn to reduce the power of their addictions and enjoy healthy living.
Professional practice of behavior analysisThe professional practice of behavior analysis is a domain of behavior analysis, the others being radical behaviorism, experimental analysis of behavior and applied behavior analysis. The practice of behavior analysis is the delivery of interventions to consumers that are guided by the principles of radical behaviorism and the research of both experimental and applied behavior analysis. Professional practice seeks to change specific behavior through the implementation of these principles.
Association for Behavioral and Cognitive TherapiesThe Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies (ABCT) was founded in 1966. Its headquarters are in New York City and its membership includes researchers, psychologists, psychiatrists, physicians, social workers, marriage and family therapists, nurses, and other mental-health practitioners and students. These members support, use, and/or disseminate behavioral and cognitive approaches. Notable past presidents of the association include Joseph Wolpe, Steven C. Hayes, Michelle Craske, Jonathan Abramowitz, Marsha M.
Analyse fonctionnelle (psychologie)L'analyse fonctionnelle est utilisée en psychothérapie cognitivo-comportementale afin de déterminer quel problème traiter, et de quelle manière. C'est la première étape d'une telle psychothérapie, déterminant la suite, donc le succès ou l'échec de la thérapie. L'analyse fonctionnelle tenant un tel rôle clé, les psychothérapeutes la développent rigoureusement. L'analyse fonctionnelle à proprement parler est une analyse quantitative, tant actuelle (ou synchronique) - c'est-à-dire concernant les problèmes actuels - qu'historique (ou diachronique) - autrement dit considérant les antécédents.
Systematic desensitizationSystematic desensitization, or graduated exposure therapy, is a behavior therapy developed by the psychiatrist Joseph Wolpe. It is used when a phobia or anxiety disorder is maintained by classical conditioning. It shares the same elements of both cognitive-behavioral therapy and applied behavior analysis. When used in applied behavior analysis, it is based on radical behaviorism as it incorporates counterconditioning principles. These include meditation (a private behavior or covert conditioning) and breathing (a public behavior or overt conditioning).
Flooding (psychology)Flooding, sometimes referred to as in vivo exposure therapy, is a form of behavior therapy and desensitization—or exposure therapy—based on the principles of respondent conditioning. As a psychotherapeutic technique, it is used to treat phobia and anxiety disorders including post-traumatic stress disorder. It works by exposing the patient to their painful memories, with the goal of reintegrating their repressed emotions with their current awareness. Flooding was invented by psychologist Thomas Stampfl in 1967.
Cognitive restructuringCognitive restructuring (CR) is a psychotherapeutic process of learning to identify and dispute irrational or maladaptive thoughts known as cognitive distortions, such as all-or-nothing thinking (splitting), magical thinking, overgeneralization, magnification, and emotional reasoning, which are commonly associated with many mental health disorders. CR employs many strategies, such as Socratic questioning, thought recording, and , and is used in many types of therapies, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and rational emotive behaviour therapy (REBT).
