Today we finished the Schizophrenia topic with a look at the last psychological therapy - CBT. The aim is to change the faulty thinking that underlies the abnormal behaviour and resultant symptoms. We discussed two CBT techniques - CSE (coping strategy enhancement) and reality testing. There are many more but I suggest you only learn a couple and evaluate them well.
Today's ppt is here. The evidence that you will need to support and oppose the use of CBT is here and here (paper copies from me in R23).
Don't forget the timed essay next Tuesday.
