Response Persistence Slide18
1. Experiential Avoidance
It refers to
the
attempt to avoid unpleasant thoughts, images, feelings, sensations, and emotions.Prevents us from being accepting of and present to our natural inner
impulses.It prevents us from acting on opportunities to pursue the values that give our lives meaning.Habitual experiential avoidance is a common trait found in people who have difficulty making normal, everyday decisions.
It telegraphs and repeatedly reinforces the message that our feelings don’t matter—and that we should be ashamed of them. Slide19
2. Rumination
When people ruminate, they over-think or obsess about situations or life events, such as work or relationships.
It
conjures up more negative thoughts. It becomes a cycle.Becomes the fast track to feeling helpless.
It paralyzes your problem-solving skills. You become so preoccupied with the problem that you’re unable to push past the cycle of negative thoughts.Slide20
3. Emotional Masking
Process
in which an individual changes or "masks" their natural personality to conform to social pressures,
abuse or harassment.Because a person wants to receive acceptance from the public, masking helps disguise characteristics like anger, jealousy or self-confidence.
Females tend to have an easier time hiding their negative emotions towards something they dislike than males do.Leads to feeling of dissonance, insincerity, emotional and physical exhaustion, and self-reported health problems.Slide21
4. Short Term Focus
When
you are focused on the present or past and consider them more important than the future.
Such people value tradition, the current social hierarchy, and fulfilling your social obligations.
You care more about immediate gratification than long-term fulfillment.This develops more addictions.Slide22
5. Response Persistence
Resolve one issue same way over and over again
Respond with ‘Ifs’ and ‘Buts’
Feel frustrated without realizing same pattern in problem solving Slide23
6. Hostility and Aggression
Refers
to violent attitudes or actions that are associated with
anger.Desire to dominate a situation or others. Displays
itself in verbal, non-verbal and physical ways and holds the intention of causing harm.Slide24
7. Negative Appraisal
P
ersonal
interpretation of a situation; it is how an individual views a situation.The perception of a situation can be the cause of a negative psychological reaction, rather than the situation itself.Slide25
