Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Dysfunctional Attitude Scale is consistent with Beck's theory of depression as it assesses the negative and rigid beliefs that individuals with depression hold about themselves, the world, and the future. This fits with Beck's idea that negative cognitive schemas contribute to the development and maintenance of depressive symptoms. The other options (A, C, D) are also cognitive assessments but are not specific to Beck's theory of depression.
