Bud has been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder
He and his therapist are discussing what happened at school yesterday. Bud's psychology professor surprised the class with a pop quiz. While Bud had been doing well in class up until that point, he had not had a chance to do his reading because he worked until midnight the night before; therefore, he failed the pop quiz. Bud's therapist asked him to share his thoughts about failing the pop quiz. Bud replied, "I should have known we'd have a pop quiz. I should have stayed up after work or gotten up early this morning to do my reading. I know I will fail the class now!" Bud's therapist retorted with, "Why do you think you have the ability to predict what will happen? That is ridiculous. It is just a pop quiz. Didn't you tell me that your professor drops a low score anyway?" His therapist continued on in this directive manner. Based on this interaction, it seems likely that Bud's therapist is providing him with _____ a) rational emotive behavior therapy. b) gestalt therapy. c) Beck's cognitive therapy. d) humanistic therapy.
