Behavior therapy of the first generation was designed to influence maladjusted behavior. Cognitive therapy as the second generation of behavior therapy was designed to improve emotions/moods by influencing thoughts away from the necessity of treating unpleasant emotions like depression. Behavior therapy of the third generation is mindfulness therapy that is designed to control emotions/moods by operating on attension. It introduces mindfulness-based stress reduction and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy as examples of mindfulness therapy.
