• Archive: Description:Based on the meticulous work of Ivan Pavlov, the Foreground-Background process involves using the "foreground" and "background" of perception with respect to a problem situation and a resource experience to create a quick and seemingly “magical” change.
• Usually, what is foregrounded in the experience of a problem or resource is quite different.
• The background of the two experiences, however, often shares many features which can be used to create bridge to resourceful experiences, leading to a transformation of the problem experience that is gentle, unconscious and effortless.Educational Objectives:Describe the relationship between perceptual foreground and background.Demonstrate how common background perceptions can be used to transfer needed resources into a problematic experience.
