negative core beliefs can cause problems. Theories also suggest that
certain dispositions and certain life events will affect people
differently. There are two categories:
• Sociotropic:
concerned about relationships, concerned of the possibility of
disapproval, ones sense of self- worth is based on acceptance & love

and reach goals outside the relationship, sense of self worth is based
on productivity, achievement and control, overly concerned with the
