Formulation

Question 1

Padesky and Mooney (1990)

Answer 1

5 areas model

Question 2

Binnie (2015)

Answer 2

As IAPT services dont diagnose, it makes sense for formulations to be used as an alternative
Individuals who’s problem is due to situational factors may feel blamed or dismissed as a result of formulation

Question 3

Sim, Gwee and Bateman (2005)

Answer 3

Formulation can inform treatment decisions
Trade off between gathering too much info (getting complete conceptualisation but too complex) and getting too little info

Answer 4
