Which REBT technique involves education, in vivo demonstration and practice of social skills and relaxation techniques?

• A. Shame Attacking
• B. REBT Skills Training
• C. Time Projection
• D. Tape Recording Sessions

Answer: (B)

Education about rational thinking paired with in vivo demonstration and real-life practice of social skills and relaxation techniques is what REBT Skills Training focuses on. This approach gives clients concrete tools—like social/communication skills and relaxation methods—taught through modeling, guided rehearsals, and actual practice in real situations so they can apply them outside therapy. It’s distinct from other REBT techniques that aim at different processes, such as shame-attacking, which targets fear of embarrassment; time projection, which uses imagined future scenarios to challenge beliefs; or tape recording sessions, which centers on monitoring self-talk rather than practicing new behaviors in real life.
