Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire

The Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire (ATQ) – Believability is an adaptation of the ATQ that measures not only how often individuals experience automatic negative thoughts (ANTs) but also how believable or credible these thoughts are to them. This version helps therapists understand the impact and influence of negative thoughts on individuals’ cognition and emotions, allowing for tailored interventions to challenge and modify negative thinking patterns in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).
