Document Summary
Depressive cognitive triad: negative thoughts concerning (1) the world, (2) oneself, and (3) the future that people with depression cannot control or suppress. Depressive attributional pattern: the tendency of depressed people to attribute negative outcomes to their own inadequacies and positive ones to factors outside themselves. Learned helplessness theory: a theory of depression that states that if people are unable to control life events, they develop a state of helplessness that leads to depressive symptoms. Chronic and intense depression occurs as the result of negative attributions for failure that are personal ( it"s all my fault ), stable ( i"ll always be this way ), and global ( i"m a total loser ) Somatic symptom disorders: disorders in which people complain of bodily symptoms that cannot be accounted for in terms of actual physical damage or dysfunction; formerly known as somatoform disorders.
