Didactic persuasion techniques in cognitive restructuring.
Previous discussions of verbal persuasion techniques utilized in cognitive restructuring have been relatively general and imprecise. This lack of specification has made comparisons between treatment procedures and research regarding the efficacy of verbal persuasion procedures difficult. Drawing from diverse discussions of persuasive techniques, those verbal persuasion procedures considered applicable within the context of a therapeutic relationship are individually specified and discussed. The attempt to systematize verbal techniques is intended to provide a tentative nomenclature by which the verbal aspect of various cognitive therapies may be put within a firmly established framework.
