In this report an overview is given of the contribution of cognitive approaches to behavioral medicine. The (possible) contribution of cognitive therapy is reviewed in the area of coronary heart disease, obesity, bulimia nervosa, chronic pain, benign headache, cancer, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome/human immunodeficiency virus and asthma. Although the relative contribution of cognitive therapy varies across these various disorders, its positive effects are now well established and new advances undoubtedly will be made in the next few years.

Appropriate participants attended a group meeting where the purpose of the program was explained, including procedures for ensuring confidentiality, the process o f random assignment and informed consent.They were randomly assigned to either cognitive-behavioural treatment (GET) or a waiting list (WL) control. Treatment was administered in small groups that met for 6 weekly sessions. The wait list group was later treated with the same program for 3 weeks, meeting twice a week. In all cases, excluding weight, there were statistically significant results p < .05. There were no significant changes in body weight -this was expected because of the short duration o f the program and the likely altered metabolisms o f the participants.

These women could control their lives whe...
