The A-B-C Analysis of Irrational Beliefs stands for Activating Event (A), Belief (B), and Consequence (C). This approach is commonly used in cognitive-behavioral therapy to help individuals identify and challenge irrational beliefs that may be causing distress or behavioral problems. The Activating Event refers to the situation or trigger that leads to a certain belief, while the Consequence refers to the emotional or behavioral outcome resulting from that belief. The focus is on changing the irrational beliefs (B) to ultimately change the negative consequences (C).
