You have learnt to associate your thoughts with your own identity, thus leading you to partially accept and trust your emotions and your thoughts.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
This statement suggests that associating thoughts with one's own identity leads to partially accepting and trusting emotions and thoughts. However, this is not necessarily true. The association between thoughts and identity does not guarantee acceptance or trust in emotions and thoughts. People's ability to accept and trust their emotions and thoughts can vary greatly and is influenced by various factors such as personal experiences, beliefs, and self-awareness. Therefore, the given statement is false.

Being aware of your feelings and your thoughts does not suddenly validate them.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Being aware of your feelings and thoughts does not automatically make them valid or true. Awareness simply means recognizing and acknowledging the existence of these thoughts and emotions, but it does not imply that they are accurate or justified. Validity and truthfulness depend on various factors such as evidence, reasoning, and objective evaluation. Therefore, the statement that being aware of your feelings and thoughts validates them is false.

Cognitive theory often indicates that we perceive things in a certain way, understand them to be that way, and thus choose behaviours accordingly.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
The explanation for the correct answer being True is that cognitive theory suggests that our perception of things influences our understanding of them, which in turn affects our behaviors. This means that our thoughts and beliefs about a situation can shape how we interpret it and how we respond to it. Therefore, cognitive theory supports the idea that our perception influences our behavior.

By expressing honestly rather than pretending to be happy about things, and feeling angry later, the person becomes far more centred, self-honest and gently assertive.
- A.
  
  True
- B.

Explanation
By expressing honesty rather than pretending to be happy and later feeling angry, the person is able to maintain a sense of self-awareness and assertiveness.

In cases of ________, the thoughts and feelings are sometimes triggered by events, but often they are due to the stress or anxiety level of the person.
- A.
  
  Depression
- B.
  
  Mindfulness
- C.
  
  Obsessive compulsive disorders
- D.
  
  Neurosis
Correct Answer
C. Obsessive compulsive disorders

Explanation
In cases of obsessive compulsive disorders, the thoughts and feelings are sometimes triggered by events, but often they are due to the stress or anxiety level of the person. This means that individuals with obsessive compulsive disorders experience intrusive thoughts and engage in repetitive behaviors as a way to alleviate their anxiety or distress. These thoughts and behaviors are not necessarily connected to specific events or triggers, but rather are a result of the person's overall stress or anxiety levels.

Where there is no trigger for OCD, and thus nothing you can solve or react to, most people respond with heightened stress, anxiety, anger or frustration.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
When there is no trigger for OCD, individuals may feel heightened stress, anxiety, anger, or frustration. This is because OCD is characterized by intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors, and without a trigger, individuals may feel overwhelmed and unable to find a solution or a way to react. Therefore, it is true that most people respond with heightened stress, anxiety, anger, or frustration when there is no trigger for OCD.

Mindfulness works by gradually introducing the awareness through catching first a few and then habitually catching your thoughts into awareness.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Mindfulness is a practice that involves intentionally paying attention to the present moment without judgment. By gradually introducing awareness, individuals become more conscious of their thoughts and are able to catch them before they become automatic or habitual. This allows for a greater sense of control over one's thoughts and emotions. Therefore, the statement that mindfulness works by gradually introducing awareness and catching thoughts into awareness is true.
