Specifically
Sokan (1996), states that effective therapist should continually help
in unmasking his clients past and especially his present illogical
thinking of self defeating talks by
(a) Bringing them to his attention or consciousness
(b) Showing the client how they are causing and maintaining their disturbance and unhappiness
(c) Demonstrating exactly what that illogical links in his internalized sentence are
(d) Teaching him how to rethink and re verbalize these sentence in a more logical self helping way
In
changing the clients illogical thought, he/she should be exposed to
main irrational thought, that human beings are prone, to so that at the
expiration of the therapy he does not fall a victim to another set.
Consequently,
unequivocal attack on the client’s general and specific irrational idea
and to try induce him to adopt more rational ones in their place.
Sokan (1996) lists two main ways by which rational therapist attack the irrational ideas:
(i)
He serves as a frank counter –propagandist who directly contradicts and
derives the self defeating propaganda of the client
(2) The
therapist encourages, persuades and sometimes commends the client to
partake in some activity which itself will act as a forceful center
propagandist against the client irrational thoughts.
(ii)
Achievement orientation: The level of aspiration in all human endeavour
is a factor of the individuals internalized construct known as
achievement orientation or need for achievement. Achievement
orientation as a personality trait or construct encompasses learned
predisposition to achieve or attain success in completion with an
internalized standard of excellence. Achievement orientation makes an
individual to man and execute tasks and actions leading to the
achievement of a goal.
Anameze (1992), beliefs that achievement
orientation enables an individuals to plan a task, feel connected with
the plan and select appropriate steps and carry them out to achieve a
goal. Many students who fail examination are likely to have negative
achievement orientation. This can be inferred from their negative
attitude towards planning academic tasks and selecting appropriate
strategies to tackle them, besides, they hardly feel connected with work
and this denies them success. To escape the problem many of them
indulge in examination mal-practice.
