Theories Grid Guidelines and Scoring Guidelines

General Instructions

It can be difficult to make distinctions between the various theoretical models studied in this course. Some of the theories/models use the same

terms but might attach different meanings to them. Other theories use different terms to refer to similar concepts. To help, students are to

create one grid that compares the major theories across several categories. It is suggested that this project be begun when the student first

begins to read about the theories and updated as each theory is studied. This project is designed to help distinguish the fine points

between the theories and to serve as a personal study guide for exams and post-graduate testing.

I. General Directions: Include each of the following theoretical approaches for this grid assignment:

1. Psychoanalytic (you may use example in these guidelines)

2. Adlerian

3. Existential

4. Person-Centered

5. Gestalt

6. Dialectical Behavior Therapy
7. Cognitive Behavior Therapy
8. Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy

9. Reality Therapy

10. Feminist Therapy

11. Narrative Therapy

12. Solution-Focused Brief Therapy

13. Structural Family Therapy

II. Create a table that compares these theories across the following dimensions:

1. Major Theorist(s)

2. Key Concepts

3. Therapeutic Goals

4. Relationship Between Therapist and Client

5. Therapeutic Techniques and Procedures

6. Applications

7. Strengths

8. Limitations

9. Specific Multicultural Perspectives

***See the example for Psychoanalytic Therapy below, which you can use in your own project.

III. Layout Directions: Students may use Microsoft Word or Excel to create their project. If Microsoft Word is used, please export the

file as a .pdf and upload the .pdf file for the assignment. Suggestions for designing this project would be to create a table for each

theory/approach in Word and use page breaks between each theory/approach. Choose the landscape option in Page layout and

insert a table. Use short statements and include definitions of terms if you are not sure of the meaning of some of the

terminology. Since using bullet points causes information to automatically indent into your column space, you might consider

using asterisks for your major points as shown in the Psychoanalytical example below. Another space-saving suggestion is to

highlight your cells, choose the Layout tab, select Cell Margins, and set the default cell margins to 0”. Doing so allows you to

maximize the use of space within the cells.

IV. Information Sources: You can use your textbook and outside resources such as journals or internet sources, but you must properly

cite and reference APA style (7th edition) all information you use from ALL sources used to answer your questions. Common

terms/language relative to each theory can be used (i.e., id, ego, superego, empty chair technique, etc.). Otherwise:

PARAPHRASE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE-you will learn the particulars of the theories more easily if you can explain

the information in your own words

V. Plan Ahead: Work on your project each week as you study each theory/approach.

VI. Be Creative: Use your creativity to create the project. For example, you can insert graphics or examples (your own) to further

explain certain points. In past projects, some students have chosen to use colored fonts to differentiate between the

theories/approaches and included pictures of either the theorist(s) or icons representative of each theory. Techniques like

these make the project information more memorable.

VII. Use the Project: This project can be used as part of your notes when taking your chapter tests and will make an excellent study

guide when preparing for comps.
