		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 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).
		At the time that Beck began his investigations in the late 1950’s, the dominant psychological theory regarded depression as due to “introjected hostility.” In contrast to the prevailing dogma, Beck‘s studies showed that depressed patients have a systematic negative bias against themselves and in their predictions of their own future.

		Beck (an MD, who actually calls himself "Tim"), described how when he started out doing research into personality theory, and psychotherapy, there was no time limit on treatment (i.e, no Managed Care), and one could work as long as necessary until landing "flashes of lightening and insights and synergy".
		Beck said that he'd spent much of his career as a psychoanalyst and still thinks of himself as "a closet psychoanalyst." He commented that some aspects of Freud's theories, notably psychological determinism, "still influence my ideas today.
