Context: Gambling disorder is a mental health condition in which a person repeatedly engages in gambling behaviour despite various negative consequences. The condition is also known as gambling addiction, pathological gambling or compulsive gambling. Recent studies have demonstrated the efficacy of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy in treating gambling disorder. Aim: In the present study, the efficacy of cognitive behaviour therapy in treatment of an adult patient with gambling disorder was examined. Settings and Designs: A single case design with pre- and post-assessments on clinician-rated scales were adopted. Materials and Methods: Fourteen bi-weekly sessions of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy were conducted on an inpatient basis. Assessments were carried out on Gambling Symptom Assessment Scale and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale, at pre- and post-therapy points. Analysis: Pre- and post-therapy changes were examined using the method of clinical significance. Results: A significant decline was seen on the Gambling Symptom Assessment Scale, and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale Conclusion: Application of CBT was effective in treating the anxiety, and gambling symptoms in the patient with Gambling Disorder

Cognitive Behaviour

AbstractCognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) is now the psychological treatment of choice for psychosis but meta-analyses indicate a low effect size on delusions, so further innovations are clearly needed, and group CBT for psychosis (GCBTp) is an under-researched area. This study aimed to service-evaluate the feasibility, satisfaction, safety, and effectiveness of a CBT group specifically targeting medication-resistant single delusions in early psychosis patients (EI-GCBTp). Three separate EI-GCBTp groups were run resulting in a total of 11 medication-resistant early psychosis patients. A within-subjects design tested for group change across two time points: pre-baseline (4 weeks before treatment) to baseline (session 1 of treatment) and sessions 1–8 (the treatment period). Thirteen delusion dimensions were measured from three psychosis-specific questionnaires: The Psychotic Symptom Rating Scale (PSYRATS), Characteristics of Delusion Rating Scale, and the Belief Rating Scale. At least three patients attended each group, satisfaction scores were high, and no harm to patients was identified. With reference to effectiveness, the pre-baseline period showed virtually no change. In contrast, across the EI-GCBTp treatment period, the PSYRATS total demonstrated a statistically significant decrease in delusional severity (p < 0.01), a 31% symptom reduction, and a large effect size (Cohen's d = 1.2, 95% confidence interval = −2.53 to 0.05), statistically significant across four delusion dimensions. EI-GCBTp appears feasible, acceptable, safe, and preliminary uncontrolled effectiveness results suggest merit for larger-scale more rigorous testing of this treatment format for possible dimensional improvements of persistent delusions.

Cognitive Behaviour

This single case study investigates a woman with organic hallucinosis, who was assessed using the Comprehensive Psychopathological Rating Scale (CPRS). She then received cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) for 11 months. The CBT approach involved engaging the patient and specific symptom targeting. An individual formulation was developed, leading to schema focused intervention and relapse prevention. The subjects total CPRS scores and schizophrenia subscale scores were reduced dramatically.

Scale Data

Halusinasi adalah merasakan segala sesuatu dalam keadaan sadar yang tampak nyata, namun sebenarnya hanya diciptakan oleh persepsi pikiran sendiri. Pasien dengan halusinasi pendengaran jika tidak segera ditangani akan berakibat kehilangan kontrol seperti bunuh diri, membunuh, bahkan merusak lingkungan. Terapi keperawatan yang direkomendasikan adalah Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT). Adapun tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh CBT terhadap penurunan tingkat kekambuhan halusinasi dengar. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain one group pre test post test dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 63 orang dengan menggunakan teknik sampling purposive. Instrumen untuk mengumpulkan data menggunakan instrumen Psychotic Syndrome Rating Scale. Data dianalisis dengan uji paired-t. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian diatas dapat disimpulkan pemberian terapi CBT memberi pengaruh yang signifikan secara statistik terhadap tingkat kekambuhan halusinasi pada pasien dengan halusinasi dengar dengan nilai signifikansi sebesar 0,000.
