		Beck, who is an MD, was asked how he understands the brain physiology and how he thinks his verbally mediated treatments affect the brain as opposed to say, pharmacotherapy alone.
		Beck answered some questions about Rogers (a "benign figure") and recalled that Ellis had ridiculed him once for being that benign figure during a session, someone who listens quietly and then returns the client to the same $!%# situation at home or work.
		Beck recalled that "years ago Ellis wrote in a book that MUSTerbation causes mental problems", but the proofreader caught the "error" and corrected it, with the resulting statement not at all what Ellis intended.

	Beck, Aaron Temkin \| Psychologists and Their Theories for Students
		Aaron Beck is one of the founders of cognitive therapy, a form of talk therapy that incorporates an information-processing model of human psychology rather than one based on instinct, motivation, or biochemistry.
		Beck's cognitive therapy may be categorized as a variant of constructivism, a term that has become increasingly popular among academic psychologists since the mid-1970s.
		In terms of the history of psychotherapy, Beck's contribution is the development of an effective form of short-term treatment well-suited to the age of managed care, cost containment, and evidence-based medicine.

	BPD TEMP
		Beck’s outcome trials with the cognitive therapy of panic disorder demonstrated a significant and lasting reduction in the number of panic attacks.
		Beck discovered that by increasing patients’ objectivity regarding their misinterpretations of situations or subjective sensations or feelings (cognitive distortions) and their negative expectancies, they experienced a substantial shift in their thinking and subsequently in their affect and behavior.
		Beck and his colleagues have subsequently elaborated the cognitive theory of generalized anxiety disorders, phobias, panic disorder, substance abuse, personality disorders, delusions and hallucinations, and negative symptoms (schizophrenia).

	Essays: 'After Freud' by Alexander Linklater \| Prospect Magazine June 2006 issue 123
		Beck was an assistant professor of psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania Medical School when, in 1959, he began to conduct some modest research into psychoanalysis.
		With this little shift in perspective, Beck began to take a path away from the entire model of the Freudian unconscious, with all its motivational and instinctual drives, towards one in which the conscious mind was the key.
		Since Beck's pioneering work in the 1960s and 1970s, CBT has developed slowly but surely, building up a portfolio of disorders for which it is effective, and for which it has evidence to demonstrate its effectiveness—principally anxiety, depression, trauma, obsessive compulsive behaviour and eating disorders.

		For example, Dr. Beck said that a woman who sought help at the Beck Institute's clinic initially saw him both as an authority figure who would try to control her, and as a helper who had her best interests at heart.
		If the patient believed Dr. Beck was trying to control her, for instance, he might ask: "How would you expect me to behave if that were case," and "What is the evidence in favor of this; what is the evidence against it?"
		Seven studies in England, Canada and Italy, Dr. Beck noted, have shown cognitive therapy to be effective for chronically ill patients who do not respond to drugs and for patients in the throes of acute psychotic symptoms.

		Beck provides a great introduction to his thinking and methodology for approaching depression.
		As opposed to psychoanalysis and psychopharmacology, he sets out a system of treating depression through cognition (changing the thought patterns that lead to harmful mood changes), that is useful for short term treatments and alleviating milder occurances.
		Dr Beck's book is particularly comprehensive and advances a strong argument for the establishment of Cognitive Therapy - it is, of course, accepted now as a valuable tool in the fight against the various anxiety/emotional disorders.
