1. I felt pretty silly having to do this but i really wanted to get it out the way
2.  It seemed easy enough to complete
3.  Just needed to remember to do the task (opening the boys toilet door) and being around the toilets
4. It didn't really have an effect on me because there was no one in the toilets when i opened the door, so i don't know the response i would have gotten
5. I think that this activity may help a young person face their biggest fear because seeing someone they trust do it would show that it's okay to do and nothing 'bad' is going to happen.

1. It felt weird being asked to do something most people would find embarrassing deliberately, but I can see how a therapist demonstrating for a client could help show them it is ok.
2. It was not too difficult after getting past the initial  mental block
3. Getting past the instinct to not do something that you'd think of as embarrassing
4. I was glad to get it out of the way (and checked off my to-do list) but otherwise didn't have much of an effect on me.
5. I think that demonstrating that something that a client could be anxious about could be useful for helping engage them in behavioural experimentation, however I think that asking someone to do something that they find incredibly worrisome is much harder than the same task that the therapist does not and that it could be a very big ask.

1. I was not looking forward to doing this at all. I scored pretty low on most of the tasks except calling someone by the wrong name so it made sense to take that challenge.
2. The task itself was easy but building up to it caused considerable anxiety.
3. I was my biggest barrier - fear of being misunderstood and hurting someone's feelings.
4. I wish I had chosen the loo task, I'm always going into the mens by mistake. I mind looking silly less than the prospect of upsetting someone.
5. Choosing a behavioural task for a child must be undertaken with great care. Anxieties are due to all sorts of reasons and where immersive techniques can work really well I think the idea of taking on a task that causes anxieties could cause huge amounts of stress. Having said that when I did call someone by the wrong name and they responded very sweetly I realised that maybe I was better thought of than I had first believed.

1. I felt that this task was not entirely related to the things that I feel anxious about. I don't usually get anxious when I do embarrassing things but only when people do unexpected actions/behaviors or surprise me.
2. It was easy because I've come to terms with judgement from other people and completing this task did not affect me.
3. Yes, I did not see a point in completing this task but I tried it with my housemates and their reactions were as predicted with my expectations.
4. I felt nostalgic of the times when I was younger and clumsier and tripping over sidewalks even though it was flat ground made me feel anxious about how people thought about me. It was a really good process in learning about how people's reactions do not affect me anymore.
5. I feel that as a child. most of these feelings of anxiety and embarrassment cannot be properly described with words and with a proper framework on reflecting about these situations, children can experiment safely with a therapist and still learn that people do not immediately judge you for an embarrassing event.

1) I felt nervous about embarrassing myself in public, but keen to get it over with early in the week so that it was not weighing on my mind
2) The task was relatively easy to complete, after the initial fear of looking like an idiot, it was quick and painless and over in minutes
3) the only real barrier to completing this was my own fear of being embarrassed in front of strangers. I told myself that if I would expect a patient to do this, then I would have to be willing to do it myself and the was able to get on with it
4) I was relieved after completing this task and was pleasantly surprised by how little anyone around me cared/paid attention to me. It made me think differently about genuine embarrassing instances in my life
5) I think this task would feel very scary for a child as it means facing their biggest anxieties. However, if they see a trusted person (therapist) do this first, I can see why this would comfort/encourage a child to face their fears.

1. I definitely felt out of my comfort zone and I already felt embarrassed before even doing the BE. But I was still intrigued to do it as it was something I have never really done before.

2. It was easy to fill out the form for the BE and the real life task itself was easy to do. The only thing that was difficult was getting myself to actually do the task for my BE.

3. The only real barrier was finding time to do the task, as well as fighting my own anxiety to do it.

4. I felt relieved after doing the task but also felt a rush of adrenaline. I also realized how much I can overthink a situation, expecting the worst possible outcome to always occur (when in fact it is highly unlikely that it will).

5. I think there are many positives to doing a BE for children. However, I also think you would have to be very cautious as many children may be highly anxious in the run up to this. Therefore, I think if this task is done with children, they should be given lots of support and be closely monitored in regards to if they are visibly distressed when doing the task.

1. I was anxious initially as the task was a bit out of my comfort zone.
2. Once I'd talked myself into doing the task it was not too difficult to complete. Although I was very anxious while completing the experiment.
3. My own anxiety at performing the task initially proved a barrier but once id completed it I felt better.
4. I felt relieved once I had performed the task and it did make me more likely to put myself into situations I may previously have thought of as uncomfortable before.
5. I think it may be very difficult for a child to complete this task. I really had to talk myself into completing the experiment and for a child with anxiety this may be too much of a hurdle for them to motivate themselves to overcome. If a child could complete it I think it would be very beneficial for them to overcome this anxiety provoking event and see that it doesn't necessarily have the negative outcomes that they assumed.

1. I felt happy to do this task as its this sort of thing that reminds me to let my hair down and have some fun. Especially as stepping outside of my comfort zone helps me feel alive. When inundated with work, this is liberating.
2. Whilst the task itself was easy, I felt a bit nervous leading up to doing it.
3. The main barrier was my initial nerves.
4. Liberating
5. I think this type of behavioural experiment is so important for children. I know how helpful it has been for my daughter to see me doing some things first which helps her step outside of her comfort zones too. Its a great way for anyone to challenge themselves but especially children so they can disprove their concerns earlier in life which will help to increase a happier wellbeing.

1. I felt that it would be a good way to identify situations in my life which I avoid because they make me feel uncomfortable and anxious.
2. I found it difficult to think of a situation initially, but when I actually did the experiment I felt quite relaxed and at ease.
3. Barriers were not wanting to feel uncomfortable or anxious for a long period of time.
4. I felt better after completing it as it became a positive experience.
5. I think that BE's can feel daunting initially when anxiety build's up. I had a positive outcome from my experiment, so i'm encouraged to do the same thing again. However, others may experience neutral or negative outcomes which I feel requires support from the therapist and family.

# data[].attributes.body
1. I felt like it was a bit ridiculous but also a bit concerned as to how to carry out the task.
2. It was quite easy to perform it, but more difficult not laughing/breaking out of character.
3. Not really any barriers other than remembering to complete it.
4. I felt relieved that it was done, and also I realised that I thought people would be more judgemental than they were so I shouldn't automatically think something will be embarrassing.
5. I can see why this sort of activity can cause distress and anxiety for children, and additionally I think as a child being embarrassed is such a massive thing (i.e. peer/social approval etc) that it is probably much harder for them to engage with.

1. It felt silly learning about the task so I felt a bit annoyed when I realised that this was the padlet assignment for this week.
2. It is definitely more of an easy task but bringing myself to do it was a challenge
3. i kept thinking about how stupid the task was because it involved me embarrassing myself in public and the more i thought about it, the less inclined I was to actually do it.
4. I felt a surge of relief after getting it done because I just did not want to be bothered by it anymore. Also I realised that I think very negatively of people's reaction when it is not really the case.
5. Because I was able to realise that I thought negatively, I definitely cannot deny that the task worked for its intended purpose. However, I am aware that I did this task for class instead of therapy and that I chose what task I wanted to engage in. Even though I had anxiety about the task, it isn't something that I am coming in to therapy for. As such I think this activity can cause a fair bit of distress in some children.

# data[].attributes.body
Self practice self-reflection (SP/SR) has many values for the clinician. Not least of which is an understanding of what it is like to be asked to complete the treatments that we conduct with our clients.

This week is all about your response to completing your behavioural experiment with the sheet given. I would like you to reflect upon your experiences by answering the questions in Box 2. Post your responses anywhere on the padlet.
