Abstract in brief

The generic cognitive model, based on Beck's famous 50-year-old theory, explains and treats psychological disorders by focusing on common principles that apply across different conditions.
The updated model introduces new concepts like the continuous nature of adaptive and maladaptive functions, dual information processing, and the organization of schemas into modes that relate to expectations, self-evaluations, and memories.
The model emphasizes the importance of beliefs in differentiating disorders and guides treatment through various interventions aimed at challenging and changing maladaptive beliefs.
