D.4-5-6 Personality Dynamic

        D.4 Personality Dynamic for Self-Mastery
                According to my client, she is a nice little girl. She described herself as a good granddaughter because she can help her grandmother to clean their house, to wash their dishes and to wash their clothes. The client also said that she is studying well to have an award.
                  
D.5 Personality Dynamic for Relationship
                Based on the data that I’ve collected, the relationship of the client with her mother was good. When her mother went home they’re doing things that make them happy, her mother buy things that she wants. And in terms of her relationship with her father, it is not good because she never saw her father.
                    The client’s relationship with her teacher was partly good and partly not. Good because she can participate in a class activities and she can work with her peers. Not good because sometimes she don’t want to write in her writing notebook, she don’t want to answer their assignments and also she don’t want to use her pencil. In addition to that, the client is talkative and annoying that’s why her teacher became angry.
                             The client’s relationship with her peers was good, even though sometimes some of them are getting angry with her because she is annoying and talkative. In the other hand, the child is a good peer because she tutor some of her peers who are not understand what their teacher taught and she also shares her things in her peers.     

        D.6 Personality Dynamic for Action
               
                When the client wakes up in the morning, the first thing she did is to brush her teeth and washed her face. When it comes to her eating habit, the child knows what are the things needed, such as plate, glass, spoon and fork. She get all those things before she eat. She also knows how to get rice and dish from the casserole. While she’s eating, there are times that she played her food and even if she’s eating, she keeps on talking. After eating, she knows where to put dishes on a right place.
                   When the client is studying, she get first the things she needed like pencils, sharpener, eraser and notebook. She started it by sharpening her pencil then goes to writing, client do it on her own and not by the command of her grandmother. She wants to do her homework alone without the help of others.

eced13 summary


BEHAVIORAL THERAPY
Burrhus Frederic Skinner - spent most of his professional life at Harvard. He has been described as the most influential psychologist of this century and he certainly set the stage for the development of behavior therapy.

Joseph Wolpe - receive his medical degree in South Africa and, after studying Pavlov, rebelled against his psychoanalytic training and devoted his career to an empirical approach to psychotherapy. He is best known for devising systematic desensitization.


Albert Bandura - Has taught psychology his entire career at Stanford University, where he has developed a broader perspective on behavior therapy by bringing in a social learning component.



HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT

   The beginnings of behavioral therapy can be found at the crossroads of the rise of behaviorism as the philosophical view and empiricism as a growing method in psychology. With the advent of systematic desensitization in the 1950s, however, behavior therapy came into its own and grew quickly during the 1960s as an alternative to psychodynamic approaches.


VIEW OF HUMAN NATURE

   Behavior therapists view humans as products of their experiences. People are neither good nor bad. But the behavior therapists do view humans as hedonistic in nature, responding to requests to end or decrease personal suffering or to promote greater pleasure and enjoyment in life. Behavior therapists have no model of optimal human functioning toward which clients led.



DEVELOPMENT OF MALADAPTIVE BEHAVIOR

   Psychopathology, from the behavioral perspective, is defined as behavior that is advantageous or dangerous to the individual and/or to other people. It can result from insufficient cues to predict consequences or from inadequate reinforcement. One of the most painful of all maladaptive behaviors stems from an overly severe set of self-standards, and the resulting excess of self-criticism.
GOALS OF THERAPY

  The goal of behavioral therapy is to extinguish the client's identified maladaptive behavior and to introduce or strengthen adaptive behavior that can serve as a replacement and enable him or her to live a productive life. 
   The key to reaching this goal is learning new behaviors. The relies on three paradigms that can stand alone but are often integrated in this approach:
  • Respondent learning
  • Operant conditioning
  • Social modeling


 FUNCTION OF THE THERAPIST

   The behavior therapist is generally very active in counseling. He or She serves as a consultant, a supporter, a resource, and a model. Functionally, the behavior therapist facilitates a process involving four major steps:
  • Accurately defining the problem.
  • Gathering a developmental history of the clients.
  • Establishing specific goals.
  • Determining the best methods for change.


MAJOR METHODS and TECHNIQUES

   Because its task is to resolve client symptoms, there are literally dozens and dozens of behavior therapy techniques. Some of the common methods include:
  • Behavioral assessment - specifying  an individualize treatment plan.
  • Positive reinforcement - giving reward for positive behavior.
  • Token economies - using tokens to be exchanged for desired objects or privileges.
  • Assertiveness training - enabling clients to express thoughts and feelings more freely.
  • Modeling - learning through observing the behavior of another.
  • Relaxation training - discriminating between tense and relaxed muscle groups to relax on cue.
  • Systematic desensitization - paring of a neutral stimulus with one that are already elicits fear.
  • Flooding - maximizing the anxious state of a client for eventual extinction.


APPLICATION
    Research has shown different forms of behavior therapy to be effective in treating anger, obsessive-compulsive disorders, phobias, depression, alcoholism, sexual dysfunction, parahilias, marital distress, and childhood disorders. It has been used successfully in a wide variety of settings.



CRITICAL ANALYSIS

   Behavior therapy provides a relatively coherent conceptual framework of psychotherapy. It is committed to systematization, objectivity, evaluation, and a solid research base. It provides clients with an understanding of the treatment process and also supplies the practitioner with an abundance of effective techniques.
   Behavior therapy, however, is criticized for not dealing with the total person. Critics also point to relatively little attention the behavioral approach has devoted to the therapeutic process.
