149 Words1 Pages
Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) is based on the theory that a child’s response to a particular event depends on how that event is perceived by the child (Flannery-Schroeder & Lamb, 2009). As a consequence, the child reacts not to the event, itself, but to their perception of that event. In addition, the child’s response to an event can subsequently affect their behaviours and attitudes. In the context of conduct disorders, CBT attempts to change a child’s antisocial behaviour by altering the way that they perceive or interpret an event (i.e. perceptual distortions and hostile attributional biases; McCart, Priester, Davies, & Azen, 2006). Common techniques involved in CBT are problem-solving strategies, self-instruction, modeling, role-play,

Much like a child who is taught a female’s place is in the home, and a male’s place is to provide, their moral compass will point towards continuing this established norm in their own future. Unfortunately, the same holds true for children who observe violent criminal behavior firsthand. The solution for correcting this behavior is much like the same way the behavior has manifested to begin with: by intervening with teaching. It is generally understood, under the theory of differential association, that the timing, length, frequency and nature of the contact are important determinants of behaviour. That is, the greatest effect on a person’s behaviour occurs the earlier the association is made, the longer the duration of the association, the more frequently the association occurs, and the closer the association is (Akers and Sellers,

SUMMARY Although cognitive behavioral therapy is known as an effective treatment for patients suffering from clinical depression. Despite this, cognitive behavioral therapy is found to not be as effective on religious patients partly due to the emphasis on values like personal autonomy and self-efficacy as necessary for mental health whereas most religious people want to depend on only God for everything.

Conduct problem(s) and antisocial behavior(s) are terms used to describe a wide range of age-inappropriate actions and attitudes of a child that violate family expectations, societal norms, and the personal or property rights of others (Kimonis, Frick, & McMahon, 2014). These children experience problems in controlling their emotions and behavior. Like the children in our examples, youths with conduct problems display a variety of disruptive and rule-violating behaviors, ranging from annoying but relatively minor behaviors such as whining, swearing, and temper tantrums to more serious forms of antisocial behavior such as vandalism, theft, and assault.
