Behavioural Activation (BA) is an approach that has been efficacious in the treatment of depression. It has been empirically shown that clinically relevant human behaviour is a function of reinforcement and when positive reinforcement is reduced or erratic, people’s sense of meaning, purpose and connectedness are impacted. This can lead to declines in mood and motivation, which causes a vicious cycle of depression.
