Cognition and Negative Affectivity

  • Chapter
Advances in Clinical Child Psychology

Part of the book series: Advances in Clinical Child Psychology ((ACCP,volume 16))

Abstract

Cognitive approaches to the conceptualization, empirical investigation, assessment, and treatment of behavioral dysfunction are both widespread and abundant (Ingram, Kendall, & Chen, 1991). Once considered a radical departure from empirical psychological science, the necessity of the “cognitive revolution” in clinical psychology currently only merits discussion from a historical standpoint (Ingram & Kendall, 1986). Now firmly acknowledged as a legitimate aspect of psychological science, cognitive perspectives assume that the fashion in which information is processed plays a significant role in the mediation of behavioral experience and contributes considerable variance to individual functioning.
