Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Cognitive restructuring refers to the mental act of changing the meaning or our interpretation of the environmental stressors in life. This is sometimes called reframing. This approach substitutes our perceptions of stressors from thoughts that are threatening to thoughts that are non-threatening. The source of excess stress is cognitive distortion, in which perceptions become distorted and magnified out of proportion to their seriousness. Cognitive restructuring entails first awareness, and then correction, of these stressful, erroneous thoughts.
