Document Summary
The articulated thoughts in simulated situations (atss) method is one way to assess immediate thoughts in specific situations. In this procedure, a person pretends that he is a participant in a situation, such as listening to a t. a criticize a term paper. Presented on audio tape, the scene pauses every 10 or 15 second. Thought-listing: the person writes down his thoughts prior to or following an event of interest, such as entering a room to talk to a stranger, as a way to determine the cognitive components of social anxiety. Open-ended techniques, such as the atss and thought listing, may be preferable when investigators know relatively little about the participant and want to get general ideas about the cognitive terrain. Videotape-reconstruction: involves videotaping an individual while they are engaged in some task or an actual or role-played problematic situation. It is important to recognize that many forms of dysfunction have their developmental origins in problematic family interactions.
