Name all 10 cognitive distortions


There isn't a universally agreed-upon number of cognitive distortions, as different sources may categorize and define them slightly differently. However, Aaron T. Beck, the founder of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), initially identified several common cognitive distortions. These distortions were further expanded upon by other researchers and practitioners in the field of CBT.

The original list of cognitive distortions identified by Beck includes around 10 common types, such as:

  1. All-or-nothing thinking (or black-and-white thinking)
  2. Overgeneralization
  3. Mental filter (dwelling on negatives while ignoring positives)
  4. Discounting the positives
  5. Jumping to conclusions (mind reading and fortune telling)
  6. Magnification and minimization (catastrophizing and minimizing the positive)
  7. Emotional reasoning
  8. Should statements
  9. Labeling and mislabeling
  10. Personalization
