Cognitive Therapy and Theories of Knowing: A Social Constructionist View.
Lyddon, William J.
Journal of Counseling & Development, v73 n6 p579-85 Jul-Aug 1995
Explores social constructionism as an alternative to cognitive therapy, which assigns causative primacy for psychological problems to the cognitive process of the individual knower. Social constructionism underscores the inextricable connection between the personal and the social, challenging the merit of decontextualized accounts of psychological problems. Contains 108 references. (JBJ)
