Answer to #1

We all seek to explain the world, we seek to find reasons for events that happen to us and
around us. In other words, we look to attribute occurrences to some cause. If we attribute
all of our failures to internal, stable, and global causes, the stage is set for the development
of depression. If all that is negative in your life is your fault and it can't be changed, what
is there to be happy about? Addressing such irrational thinking is a likely task for a
cognitive therapist.

Answer to #5

Extinction is the process of lessening the strength of a conditioned response by presenting
the conditioned stimulus in the absence of the unconditioned stimulus. If, for example, one
had developed a fear of a snakes (a phobia) after having been bitten by a snake, the
extinction process might consist of exposing the fearful person to a snake (the conditioned
stimulus) without any negative event occurring (such as being bitten; the unconditioned
stimulus). Such a procedure should, hopefully, serve to extinguish the fear response to the
snake.
