Chapter 11 Cognitive Behavior Modification
What is Cognitive Behavior Modification (CBM)? • All CBM interventions share three basic assumptions: • Behavior is mediated by cognitive events • A change in cognitive mediating events results in a change of behavior • All persons are active participants in their learning • Not a specific intervention technique
The Origins of Cognitive Behavior Modification • synthesis of behavioral & cognitive psychology • Blending of behavior principles & cognition theory • Behavior is influenced by how we think • The main determinants of behavior are within the individual
The Procedures of Cognitive Behavior Modification I • Self monitoring • Accuracy in self-monitoring • Reinforcement for accurate self-monitoring • Teaching students to self-monitor • Self evaluation • Teaching students to self-evaluate
The Procedures of Cognitive Behavior Modification II • Self-reinforcement • Teaching students to use self-reinforcement • Application • Student involvement and training in all steps
Self-Instructional Training • Students are taught a generic set of statements that they say to themselves when confronted with various situations.
Problem-solving Training • effective in reducing behavior problems and increasing appropriate social interaction
Alternative Response Training • student is taught an alternative or competing response that interferes with opportunities for an undesirable response to be emitted.
Anger Control Training • Students are taught to inhibit or control anger and aggressive behavior through self-instruction
Attribution Retraining • based on attribution theory • individuals seek causes for events in their environment and • these causes influence behavior
Development and Generalization of CBM Programs • Stages of constructing and implementing cognitive behavior interventions • Task analysis • Learner analysis • Development and implementation
Summary • CBM is used to modify behavior, facilitate academic performance, train problem-solving ability, and foster self-control. • Major aim of CBM is to teach students to • be their own agents of change, • in control of their behavior • and their learning
