In a test of two key features of REBT, causal relationships between irrational beliefs and unconditional self-acceptance were
experimentally investigated in a sample of 106 non-clinical participants using a priming technique. Priming participants with
statements of irrational belief resulted in a decrease in unconditional self-acceptance whereas priming participants with
statements of rational belief resulted in an increase in unconditional self-acceptance. In contrast, priming participants
with statements about unconditional self-acceptance did not result in an increase in rational thinking and priming participants
with statements about conditional self-acceptance did not result in an increase in irrational thinking. The present study
is the first to provide evidence of a causal link between rational/irrational thinking and unconditional/conditional self-acceptance.
The findings have important implications for the core hypothesis of REBT and underscore the advantages of experimental over
correlational studies in theory-testing. 相似文献

In two studies, one correlational (N = 158) and one experimental (N = 128), using college students, it was found that Need for Achievement, Need for Approval and Self-Downing were the most
important irrational beliefs of the General Attitude and Belief Scale predicting unconditional self-acceptance. The Need for
Comfort, Demand for Fairness and Other-Downing subscales were found to be less influential. The findings were discussed in
terms of Ellis’ theoretical formulation of four higher-order types of irrational belief processes (demandingness, awfulizing,
low-frustration tolerance and self-downing), empirical research on different irrational belief themes, the distinction between
ego disturbance and discomfort disturbance in REBT and the distinction between sociotropy and autonomy in different forms
of depression. 相似文献

While numerous studies support Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and Theory (REBT), they tend to be limited by their use of correlational designs, simulated scenarios and self-report measures. This study tested a core REBT hypothesis in an experimental design using multiple physiological as well as psychological measures. Ninety patients from a medical practice were placed in a real-life stressful situation while holding either a rational, an irrational, or an indifference belief. Those holding a rational belief reported the greatest increase in concern whereas those holding an irrational belief reported the greatest increase in anxiety. Of particular significance, those holding a rational belief showed a decrease in systolic blood pressure whereas those holding an irrational belief showed an increase (diastolic blood pressure increased in both conditions). These results not only support the core REBT hypothesis, but also suggest a way to differentiate between beliefs and emotions by measuring physiological as well as psychological changes. 相似文献

The goal of this study was to analyze the role of irrational beliefs and other mediating variables in emotional adjustment
after marital separation. Self-esteem and attachment to the ex-spouse were chosen as indicators of emotional adjustment. For
this purpose several mediation centres and associations for separated people took part in the project. The results showed
that irrational beliefs, as well as length of conflict during marriage, time since divorce and desire of contact with the
former spouse, are good predictors of emotional adjustment. It has been suggested that Rational-Emotive-Behavior Therapy can
be used in the treatment of divorced people. 相似文献
