Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This CBT handout from the Centre for Clinical Interventions explains biased expectations—negative predictions about outcomes—and their role in maintaining anxiety and low self-esteem. It outlines two primary strategies for clients: using thought diaries to challenge these thoughts and conducting behavioral experiments to test the accuracy of negative predictions. The resource aims to help individuals develop more realistic self-assessments by reducing avoidance and safety behaviors.
