Controlled is comprised of external regulation in which behavior is directed by external rewards ( seeking a therapists approval) or avoiding punishment.

A

1) Mastery experience (most important!) I’ve been successful at task and am likely to be successful again and at similar tasks.

3) Verbal Persuasion (weaker form) Usually must come from a trusted source
4) Psychological and affective states - info/sensations we get from our body that influence beliefs/confidence. e.g. being tired is going to influence my ability to do XXX

  • Motivation influences standards individuals set for themselves and their commitment to those goals.
  • Persistence - people will expend more effort over longer periods of time toward goals/tasks they believe they can accomplish. Even if there is difficulty
  • Interpretation - people interpret failures differently when they have high vs. low self efficacy. e.g. high SE = failure seen in a positive light. Low SE = failure seen as confirmation of their ability

- Controlled

50
Q

Q

What are the main ways that autonomy support is accomplished?

A

1) Taking the client’s perspective - foundation.
-the foundation of
successful needs support
- depends on the quality of
our listening
- let client tell their story
and encourage opinions
- acknowledge clients’
perspective as valid
2) Encourage reflection, exploration, and questioning
- increases self-awareness
-helps avoid expert trap or
righting reflex
- guide client toward goal
ID and self-endorsements
of insights and reasons for
engaging in therapy,
pursuing goals
3) Offer choice and support meaningful input
- support choice/autonomy
vs. independence.
- the nature and extent of
choice will vary based on
the client and the context
Choices
-allows actions to reflect
personal values, goals, or
interests which will have the
greatest effect on motivation.
- provide choices that are
achievable
- support client’s ability to
make good choices
- Choice should not be
perceived as too
burdensome
- avoid communicating a
preference
4) Provide meaningful rationales for strategies and activities
- rationale-related features
- specific & concrete vs
vague and abstract
- intrinsic or extrinsic goal
- self-evident vs novel
-autonomy supportive
climate
-accepting neg feelings

- client generated rationale
vs clinician generated
5) Minimize pressure

language
- follow client’s lead
- roll with resistance

52
Q

Describe how to give meaningful rationales in autonomy supportive ways.

A

Meaningful Rationales:

- Novel vs self-evident (stating the obvious is not motivating)
Autonomy Supportive:
- acceptance of negative feelings and resistance to the task/goal
-inviting vs. pressuring language
-client generated rational vs clinician generated rationale

53
Q

Describe the basic approach to minimizing pressure on clients.

57
Q

What is meant by optimal challenge?

A 
challenges that are readily but not easily mastered.
  -clients should be successful 
   most of the time
  -intermittently pushing people 
   to their envelope may 
   heighten intrinsic motivation.

A

Ask patients:

1) what do you think/predict your barriers will be
2) Can you rank the order of the barriers mentioned that could be the most disruptive
3) “lets talk about what you think you can do to manage this barrier”

62
Q

Helping people feel confident to manage problems they may face which will only slightly help increase competency of PT.

A

False- it will help them overall

63
