Can someone please summarise which treatment goes with which approach to abnormality thanks


Biological approach: treatment is ECT and drugs i.e. anti-psychotic drugs, anti-depressants.

Cognitive approach: cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and rational emotive behavioural therapy if you need a second.

Behavioural approach: systematic densensitisation, and aversion therapy

Psychodynamic approach: psychoanalysis i.e. dream analysis, free word association and projective ink blot testing.

Hope this helps, good luck, you'll be fab xx

How would you answer "outline and evaluate research relating to independent behaviour"?

Would you just talk about resisting pressures to conform like:
-high internal LOC
-unanimity etc

and resisting pressures to obey:
-no authority
-no legitimate authority
-seeing the pain we cause

then back each one up using the variations from Milgram and Asch's study??

Yes thats right!! :smile:
For the cognitive approach can you talk about the ABC model or do you need to talk about Beck too?

Yes I'm being serious. You have to use paragraphs. Especially in 12 markers. Honestly it's not even that hard.

I think one is probably enough, as long as you can elaborate fully. I think in the essay's they wouldn't specify for a specific treatment with an approach, they would just say psychological treatments, in which case you could do REBT and psychoanalysis or a behavioural one.
