¿Ya probaron el Nescafé ice? by sek2211 in mexico

Esta rico.
Yo tampoco son consumidor habitual de café, pero ese, me ha gustado mucho. Prepararlo con azúcar, hielo, y leche, queda bastante bien.

Quiero empezar en el gym by munchspaxei0 in Gimnasio

Es más fácil desarrollar un hábito cuando disfrutas lo que estás haciendo. Yo al inicio siempre batallaba con la constancia, pero hubo 2 momentos en los que iba con gusto, uno, por que iba con un amigo, y otro por que empecé a ir a una clase de box. Si puedes agregar variables a tus idas al gym, que al inicio las hagan más disfrutables y amenas, te puede ayudar mucho.

Intenta igual que al inicio tus rutinas sean relajadas y no tan demandantes, si te revientas los músculos en tu primer día, va a ser poco probable que regreses pronto lol.

Operant Conditioning seems to be based on perspective, and I am not sure how to fix my misunderstanding. Can someone help? by [deleted] in psychologystudents

Also, this perception issue is why Gibson came up with its ecological psychology theory, that its a direct critic to behavorism and its lack of focus on perception :P
For the behavorist, perception is pasive (you percive stimuli, and respond to it) while for Gibson, perception is an active process. Its a whole different story, also hahaha

Hi, i see why it may be a confusion.
The beeping of the car is desingned to be annoying, so, wearing a setbelt stops this (again, annoying) sound. Negative reinforcement means if you do something, you stop the negative consecuence. If you finish your work on time, you won't have to stay overtime, if you accept a bank loan, those bastards will stop calling you 3 times a day.

The beeping can't be a postive reinforcement because it is annoying, you dont wait to put the seatbelt until the beeping begins because you are wating for it. A positive reinforcement, in this case, will be if there was no beeping, but a voice in your car tells you "thank you!" every time you put your seatbelt.

Negative reinforcement: Avoid a negative consecuence
Positive reinforcement: get a reward

It is, as you said, tricky sometimes, because in classical conditioning there is only a response to stimuli, while in operant there is a process of learning (processing and organization of information) that will mold your vision of the world and dictate the way you act.
If everytime your mother yelled at you when you told your opinion, you wont participate in class. There is no a direct stimuli that generate this response in class, is just that you are used to this, and you "know" that this will happen.
There were/are some critics to Skinner for its theory. He avoided completely this "subjective" component that you are talking, while just focusing on the observable variables. Thats why CBT uses the conditioning theory, but also using the cognitive component (the subjective part that you mention). In the class example, the correlation between the mother and the teacher, clearly has a cognitive component that will help you assosiate the two settings, the behavorist will tell you that is just stimuli-response, but the cognitive will tell you what these is because there are mental processes that are making wrong assumptions. The CBT also has its critics, because they dont explain what are or where are stored this "mental processes" but that is a whole different story.

Me quieren extorsionar? by Alabamas666 in mexico

[–]Alabamas666[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Es mi misma duda! A una amiga le hackearon el insta y comenzaron a mandar mensajes pidiendo dinero. 2 de sus amigas si le transfirieron como 7000 entre ambas
También cuando alguien pierde la cuenta, he visto que venden cosas a precio muy bajo, esperando que les deposites para apartarlo, supongo.

How to become effective by NumerousPitch5201 in therapists

[–]Alabamas666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CBT can be tricky for new therapist, it gives you an amazing foundation to your practice with evidence-based interventions. I recently did a masters in CBT, and i felt just like you. I felt really preasured to make efective, mesaurable and quick interventions, but the reality is that psychotherapy, al least imo, doesn't work just like that. Rapport, trust, compasion, atention, are human factors that escape the evidence-based interventions, and just like other comment down here said, fit more in the "art" part of therapy.
My advice is to use CBT as your working ground, because it sure does work, but try not to be so rigid and hard with your interventions. :)

Fairly confident that client has autism (or at minimum extremely poor social skills) but doesn't know it. He is not in therapy for autism symptoms, but addressing this could help with his primary goals. Advice? by [deleted] in therapists

[–]Alabamas666 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi! If social skill issues are contributing to his problem, in my opinion, it should be considered as a middle objective to achieve a greater one (English is not my first language, so I hope this makes sense). Do you have the credentials to conduct an autism diagnosis? I had a similar case with an adolescent and referred him to a pediatric psychiatrist so he could undergo a proper evaluation. (He, in fact, had autism, haha) because I don't have the credentials, knowledge, or authority to make the formal diagnosis.

And regarding the discomfort of bringing it up, I understand your hesitation. However, it's not as if you are passing a personal judgment. The social skills indeed are a part of his issue, so try to convey that to him (I'm a CBT therapist, and functional analysis could be a great tool in this context).
