Question

A friend says that she will call you, but she never does. rather than phone or text her, you become angry and delete her from your social networking site with the thought, "i'll show you." true or false: according to albert ellis, your response to your friend's behavior may be based on an irrational belief.

Answer 1

The answer is "true".

Ellis set Irrational Beliefs at the specific heart of REBT, as these are the essential purpose behind human wretchedness and brokenness. By testing, addressing, debating and acting against our Irrational Beliefs we can change our enthusiastic reactions to occasions, from unfortunate to solid, which better guide us in accomplishing our objectives throughout everyday life.  

Although numerous individuals have wrongly accepted that Ellis contended that there was such an unbelievable marvel as rational world, this was never his goal. Or maybe, he picked the terms silly as a code word for unhelpful, strange and conflicting with our social reality. Balanced convictions then again are a doublespeak for convictions that are useful, coherent, and steady with our social reality.
