Question
Explain the imposition principle.

Answer

  • The principle of imposition is also an important principle of cognitive paradigm.
  • It is called impeachment to attribute the causes responsible for the incident that has taken place.
  • Sometimes a person prefers external or atmospheric factors for the reasons responsible for the event.
  • External blame for abnormal behavior such as aggression and anti-social behavior and internal blame for behavioral disorders such as anxiety, depression, suicide.
  • The cognitive paradigm also prefers the realization of the situation i.e. the interpretation of the realization.
  • The interpretation of a situation rather than a situation determines the intensity and normality of a person’s impulses.
  • The situation or event cannot be changed but the abnormality of the behavior can be prevented if the interpretation is changed. Thus, the cognitive paradigm demonstrates the normality and abnormality of behavior by studying the mental processes responsible for behavior.
