The Manufacture of Memory (1 of 3)

• Unlike a digital recorder or video camera, human

memory is highly selective and is reconstructive.

• It is more like watching a few unconnected clips

and then figuring out what the rest of the recording

must have been like.

• People add, delete, and change elements in ways

that help them make sense of information and

events.

The Manufacture of Memory (2 of 3)

• In reconstructing their memories, people often

draw on many sources.

• They take bits and pieces and build one integrated

account.

• They often experience source misattribution, the

inability to distinguish information stored during an

event from information added later.

The Manufacture of Memory (3 of 3)

• Shocking or tragic events do hold a special place

in memory.

• Yet even these vivid flashbulb memories tend to

become less accurate or complete over time.

• People typically remember the gist of a startling,

emotional event.

CBT treatment for PDs

this week we will be discussing CBT treatment for PDs. Unfortunately the majority of research centers on BPD with just a bit mentioned regarding other PDs.

(this post may require some light research on the internet to answer this question but be sure to site your source)

Think about these PDs: NPD, HPD, SPD, OCPD, DPD, PPD

What would be appropriate treatment goals for these individuals? What style or type of therapy do you think could potentially be effective for each of these personalities and why? As a therapist how would you approach each of these PDs? How would the psychoanalytic and CBT schools of thought approach the problems of the disorders listed above? Where would they say the problems originate from and how would they tackle them?

THE BIOPSYCHOSOCIAL APPROACH

Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words:

The biopsychosocial approach is thought to produce a comprehensive view of an individual because it requires an in-depth look at biological, psychological, and social factors that contribute to behavior. Review one of the case studies presented in Ch. 9 of Contemporary Clinical Psychology. How are the biological, psychological, and social factors related to one another? How do these factors contribute to the individual’s presenting problem? What is the relationship between these factors and a plan for treatment?
