SELECTING A BEHAVIORAL ALTERNATIVE THROUGH PRACTICE
Keywords:
BEHAVIORALAbstract
It is a basic premise of this paper that behavior is learned, and can be altered and modified at any time during the life space of an individual provided a sufficient number of alternative responses to the solution of a problem are available in an individual's repertoire of possible responses.
It is further postulated that an individual's repertoire of alternative responses can be increased through practice in a controlled environment such as that afforded in action group therapy. In this type of therapy the patient has an opportunity to explore ways of reacting that might offer the most satisfaction and efficiency attainable in a given set of circumstances.
