When rudyard missed the bus to school, he immediately thought to himself, "the teacher will never let me in late to the final exam. i’m doomed." rudyard’s thoughts are an example of which cognitive therapists attempt to change using one:
a. unreality; reality therapy
b. self-analysis; problem solving
c. self-talk; cognitive restructuring
d. irrationality; rationalization

Rudyard's thoughts are an example of C. self-talk, which cognitive therapists attempt to change using cognitive restructuring.

Explanation:

Self-talk, just as the name states, is the way an individual talks to him/herself. It's the way one tends to respond to experiences in general, a form of internal critic.

Cognitive therapy focuses on the present; behaviors and experiences taking place at the moment and it mainly focuses on solving issues.

Cognitive restructuring is the process in which an individual changes his/her irrational thoughts, known as cognitive distortions, into rational thoughts.

In this case Rudyard's first response was a form of self-talk and it can be seen that the thought is irrational, thus a cognitive therapist would attempt to change it using cognitive restructuring.

whats the question huh huh bruh
