  5. Cognition & Depression www.psychlotron.org.uk • Depression results from systematic negative bias in thinking processes • Emotional, behavioural (and physical?) symptoms result from cognitive abnormality • Depressed cognitive triad • Silent assumptions • Faulty thinking strategies

  6. The Self Experiences The Future Depressed Cognitive Triad www.psychlotron.org.uk

  7. Silent Assumptions www.psychlotron.org.uk • Grounding assumptions operating at a semi-conscious level: • ‘I must get people’s approval’ • ‘I must do things perfectly’ • ‘I must always be valued by others’ • ‘The world must be fair and just’

  8. Faulty Thinking www.psychlotron.org.uk • Systematic negative bias in information processing: • Arbitrary inference • Selective thinking • Overgeneralisation • Catastrophising • Personalising • Black and white thinking

  9. Cognition & Depression www.psychlotron.org.uk • Some hypotheses: • Depressed patients think differently to clinically normal people • Changes in thinking precede the onset of depressed mood • Changing thinking patterns can reduce or remove depressed symptoms (NB treatment-aetiology fallacy)
