Abstract

Chapter 8 explores how to understand thoughts and perform cognitive appraisals with the use of an ambiguous picture exercise. Automatic appraisals are discussed, along with how to identify core automatic appraisals. Thinking traps (probability overestimation, catastrophizing) and cognitive reappraisal are also explored.
