Clark and Beck (2010) Have Modified Aaron Beck's Cognitive Formulation

Clark and Beck (2010) have modified Aaron Beck's cognitive formulation of depression and anxiety to include neurobiological correlates of cognitive therapy (CT) : as CT modifies maladaptive cognitive processes, imaging studies show that these changes are accompanied by

A) reduced activation of subcortical regions and increased activation of cortical regions involved in cognitive control of emotion and reflective processes.
B) reduced activation of cortical regions involved in excessive thinking, with increased activation in subcortical regions involved in the relaxation response.
C) increased activation in interactive cortical and subcortical regions where emotional processing takes place.
D) reduced activity in the left parietal lobe which has been associated with hyper- focusing and the anxio-depressogenic response complex.
E) increased activity in the left parietal lobe, which has been associated with adaptive judgment and appropriate emotional responses.
