BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: The identification of trauma and posttraumatic stress disorder and its treatment is critically important in contemporary society. This preliminary research aimed to investigate the effect that rational-emotive behavior therapy (REBT) had on trauma-specific beliefs. METHOD: This study used a randomized controlled trial design. The study participants were 182 undergraduate students. A self-report questionnaire which measures trauma-specific irrational beliefs was used for data collection. A trauma-focused REBT manual guided the group intervention. Within x Between-subjects and paired t-test statistic were used for data analysis. RESULTS: The results show that REBT brought about a significant reduction in trauma-specific irrational beliefs among the students in the treatment group compared to their counterparts in the waitlist control group. Finally, the results indicate that the positive gains were significantly maintained by the treatment group at four months follow-up. CONCLUSION: The current study suggests that an REBT program can be helpful in altering trauma-specific irrational beliefs. The authors employed this model of psychological intervention in an African society in which trauma is significant. The authors demonstrated a model for evaluation and a model of intervention that appears to be of a significant and enduring impact as reported in this study.

The use of rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT) in sport psychology has received scant research attention. Therefore, little is known about how REBT can be adopted by sport psychology practitioners. This paper principally outlines how practitioners can use REBT on a one-to-one basis to reduce irrational beliefs in athletes. Guidance is offered on the introduction of REBT to applied contexts, the REBT process through which an athlete is guided, and offers an assessment of the effectiveness of REBT with athletes. It is hoped that this paper will encourage other practitioners to adopt REBT in their work and to report their experiences.

This research aimed to investigate the effect that rational-emotive behavior therapy had on the symptoms of burnout among undergraduate electronics work students in Southeast Nigeria. This study utilized a pretest–posttest design involving a no-intervention group versus an intervention group. Participants were 124 undergraduate electronics work students who met the inclusion criteria of the study. The intervention consisted of 12 weeks of rational-emotive behavior therapy treatment and 2 weeks of follow-up meetings conducted at 6 months. Self-report questionnaire was used for data collection. Repeated measures analysis of variance and t test were used for data analysis. The results show that rational-emotive behavior therapy had a significant effect on the symptoms of burnout syndrome among the electronics work students in the treatment group compared to their counterparts in the no-intervention group. Finally, the positive gains were significantly maintained by the treatment group at the follow-up. The current study suggests that rational-emotive behavior therapy program can be effective for dealing with burnout syndrome among the population of undergraduates in Nigeria. Further clinical evaluation is needed.

Research examining the effects of rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT) on athletic performance is emerging. There is, however, a paucity of research exploring psychological interventions in specialized sport populations. The present study investigated the effects of a single REBT workshop, including intellectual and practical insight into the ABC(DE) framework, on psychological, physiological, and performance markers in an elite blind soccer team. From use of a within-participant pretest–posttest crossover design in an ecologically valid setting, data indicated small and immediate reductions in irrational beliefs, perceived helpfulness of preperformance anxiety, and physiological markers (i.e., systolic blood pressure) prior to a penalty-kick simulation. However, no substantial changes were shown in penalty-kick performance. In sum, although the findings elucidate some benefits of a single REBT workshop, the educational insight into the ABC(DE) framework was deemed insufficient for meaningful changes in outcome measures. Practical implications and recommendations for future researchers are discussed.
