ESSAY
1. ANS:
Point 1: Electroconvulsive therapy: Students should define electroconvulsive therapy as a technique
that involves delivering a short (20–60 second) shock to the client's brain. These shock treatments
may help alleviate depression that does not respond to other treatments. Students should also explain
that this treatment is based on the biological perspective because it assumes that depression can be
treated through the changes in the brain produced by electroconvulsive therapy.
Point 2: Transference: Students should define transference as the strong positive or negative feelings
patients may feel about the psychoanalyst that reflect similar unconscious feelings repressed from
earlier relationships. Students should also explain that this treatment is based on the psychoanalytic
perspective because it involves the impact of unconscious feelings or anxieties (the positive or
negative feelings experienced earlier) on current behavior (reaction toward the psychoanalyst).
Point 3: Token Economy: Students should define token economy as a behavior modification
technique that involves “tokens” that can be exchanged for rewards (such as candy or TV time).
Therapists give these tokens to clients when they perform desired behaviors. Students should also
explain that this treatment is based on the learning perspective because it assumes that clients'
behaviors are controlled by rewards for desired behaviors.
Point 4: Systematic desensitization: Students should define systematic desensitization as a classical
conditioning technique involving the gradual exposure of a client to feared behaviors, step-by-step,
starting with situations that cause low levels of anxiety and gradually progressing to more intense
situations. Students should also explain that this treatment is based on the learning perspective
because it assumes that clients' anxieties can be gradually reduced through exposure to each
situation.
Point 5: Resistance: Students should define resistance as episodes in which the patient omits or
forgets events, pauses, or changes the subject during discussions with the psychoanalyst. Students
should also explain that this treatment is based on the psychoanalytic perspective because the
concept of resistance depends on the idea that the patient's behavior is driven by an unconscious
desire to avoid specific thoughts or memories.
Point 6: Psychopharmacology: Students should define psychopharmacology as the study of the
effects of drugs on thinking and behavior. Students should also explain that this treatment is based
on the biological perspective because it assumes that behavior can be changed through the changes
in brain chemistry produced by psychoactive drugs.
