Answer to Question 1

This is an information processing model of psychopathology. Problems come from the biased processing of
external events or internal stimuli. These biases distort the ways people make sense of their world, leading to
cognitive errors. Underlying the bias are schemas that contain dysfunctional beliefs. When these schemas
become activated they bias how the person processes information. For example, in depression, people tend to
make negative interpretations about themselves, their world and their future. In therapy, clients are made aware
of the connection between thinking and emotional response. They are taught to identify their automatic thoughts,
the logical errors in thinking they are making and how to challenge their validity. Clients are encouraged to
gather information on their own and test their beliefs as hypotheses.

Answer to Question 2
