    Open AccessMustafa Batuhan Kurtoğlu, Canahmet Boz et al.ARTICLEJournal of Clinical Psychology2026

    OBJECTIVE: Depression and anxiety are among the most prevalent mental health disorders worldwide, yet existing diagnostic tools do not always align with contemporary classification systems such as the International Classification of Diseases-11 (ICD-11). The study aimed to evaluate the validity and reliability of the International Depression Questionnaire (IDQ) and the International Anxiety Questionnaire (IAQ) in the Turkish population. METHODS: …

  • The development and initial psychometric evaluation of the Centrality of Loss Scale (CLS) in a national sample of bereaved adults from Poland

    Open AccessJ M Cunningham, Mark Shevlin et al.ARTICLEDeath Studies2026

    Centrality of loss reflects the extent to which the death of a loved one becomes a central reference point, shaping thoughts, emotions, identity, and daily activity. We developed the Centrality of Loss Scale (CLS) and tested its psychometric properties and incremental association with grief severity beyond bereavement context. A national sample of bereaved Polish adults (N = 886; 51.0% female) completed the CLS alongside measures of prolonged gri…

  • A systematic review of the accessibility and visibility of bereavement related support for UK and Ireland university students

    Open AccessJulie Graham, Enya Redican et al.ARTICLEDeath Studies2025Referencias: 3

    Bereavement is one of the most frequently reported stressors for university students, yet the extent of support offered by UK and Ireland universities is largely unknown. A systematic search of all UK and Ireland university public-facing only websites was conducted during 2024-2025 to assess the provision of ten bereavement-related support types. Support types were aggregated producing a total bereavement friendly score out of 30 for each univers…

  • Are ‘time’ and ‘culture’ useful and necessary diagnostic requirements for ICD-11 Prolonged Grief Disorder? A Cross-national study

    Open AccessEnya Redican, Mark Shevlin et al.ARTICLEDeath Studies2025Referencias: 3

    ICD-11 PGD can only be diagnosed if symptoms persist beyond 6 months after bereavement and for longer than would be expected from societal, cultural, or religious norms. This study examined the validity and utility of these diagnostic requirements using self-report cross-sectional data from samples of bereaved adults from the United Kingdom (UK; n = 1,012), Ireland (Ireland; n = 1,011), and Ontario ( n = 1,167). PGD symptoms and rates of probable…

    Vanesa Peinado, Mark Shevlin et al.ARTICLEDeath Studies2025Referencias: 2

    The International Prolonged Grief Disorder Scale (IPGDS) assesses Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD) according to the International Classification of Diseases 11th edition criteria, yet its latent structure remains debated. This study examined (a) the factor structure of PGD through the IPGDS, (b) the correlates of its factors, and (c) their potential association with functional impairment. We employed exploratory structural equation modeling and con…

  • Assessing peri-loss emotions and their associations with ICD-11 prolonged grief disorder and posttraumatic stress disorder in a community sample of bereaved adults

    Open AccessEnya Redican, Mark Shevlin et al.ARTICLEDeath Studies2025

    Previous studies have examined risk factors for ICD-11 Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD) but the variation and levels of peri-loss emotional reactions (those occurring during or immediately after the loss), and their association with grief related distress, has received little attention. This study is the first to assess retrospectively reported peri-loss emotional responses and their associations with ICD-11 PGD and PTSD in a large, bereaved adult …

  • Prolonged grief, social contact, community belongingness

  • A network approach to understanding social distancing behaviour during the first UK lockdown of the Covid-19 pandemic

    Open AccessJilly Gibson-Miller, O Zavli et al.ARTICLEPsychology & Health2024

    OBJECTIVE: Given the highly infectious nature of COVID-19, social distancing practices are key in stemming the spread of the virus. We aimed to assess the complex interplay among psychological factors, socio-demographic characteristics and social distancing behaviours within the framework of the widely used Capability, Opportunity, Motivation-Behaviour (COM-B) model. DESIGN: The present research employed network psychometrics on data collected du…

  • ICD ‐11 prolonged grief disorder

    Open AccessVanesa Peinado, Carmen Valiente et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of Psychology2024

    The International Classification of Diseases has recently defined Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD) with symptoms such as longing, worry, and intense emotional pain that exceed sociocultural norms more than 6 months after the loss. This study aims to (a) estimate the prevalence of this new diagnostic category, (b) identify its sociodemographic and loss‐related predictors, and (c) assess the co‐occurrence of PGD with other psychological disorders and…

  • Multiple trauma exposure and psychopathology in Syrian refugees living in Turkey

    Open AccessCaitlyn Rawers, Enya Redican et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica2024

    BACKGROUND: After the Syrian civil war, millions of Syrian refugees migrated to neighboring countries, with the majority settling in Turkey. The prevalence of mental disorders is notably higher among refugee populations. However, prior research on Syrian refugees have mostly used variable-centred approaches which have known limitations. Thus, the present study sought to examine the occurrence and co-occurrence of traumatic experiences among Syria…

  • Self-harm, Suicide, and ICD-11 Complex Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in Treatment-Seeking Adolescents with Major Depression

    Open AccessHuanzhong Liu, Grace W K Ho et al.ARTICLEJournal of Child & Adolescent…2024

    Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is linked with self-harm and suicide, but few studies have examined these severe outcomes in relation to complex trauma. This study examined the associations between self-harm and suicide-related phenomena with ICD-11 complex PTSD (CPTSD) among treatment-seeking youths. A convenience sample of 109 adolescents with major depression (69.7% female; mean age = 15.24) were recruited from an outpatient psychiatric c…

  • Parental physical activity, parental mental health, children’s physical activity, and children’s mental health

    Open AccessGavin Davidson, Lisa Bunting et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2024

    These findings suggest that including support for parental physical activity and children's physical activity should be a routine component of family focused mental health interventions. It is important to acknowledge that there may be additional barriers to engaging in physical activity for families where a parent is experiencing mental health problems, and these should also be explored and addressed

  • The psychological burden of bereavement in the general population of UK and Ireland

  • The emotional consequences of novel political identities

    Open AccessRichard P Bentall, Azzam Alsuhibani et al.ARTICLEPolitical Psychology2024Referencias: 55

    Following the 2016 EU referendum on Britain's membership in the European Union, many people described themselves as “Leavers” or “Remainers.” Here, we examine the emotional responses associated with Brexit identities using survey data collected from two nationally representative samples of the British public in 2019 (N = 638) and 2021 (N = 2,058). Confirmatory factor analysis indicated that many in both samples had coherent Leave or Remain identi…

  • Measuring positive memories of home and family during childhood

    Open AccessMark Shevlin, Enya Redican et al.ARTICLECurrent Psychology2023

    There is a burgeoning evidence base highlighting the positive influence of benevolent childhood experiences (BCEs), even in the context of adversity. However, few measures are available to assess BCEs. The current study sought to develop and validate a measure which assesses positive recollections of experiences and emotions at home and with family during childhood called the ‘Memories of Home and Family Scale’(MHFS). Confirmatory factor analysis…

  • Translation and validation of the Turkish forms of the International Depression Questionnaire (IDQ) and the International Anxiety Questionnaire (IAQ)

    Open AccessEmre Han Alpay, Enya Redican et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica2023

    BACKGROUND: The 11th version of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) included revised formulations of single episode depressive disorder (DD) and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Consequently, the International Depression Questionnaire (IDQ) and International Anxiety Questionnaire (IAQ) have been developed as self-report measures which directly align with the ICD-11 description of DD and GAD, respectively. OBJECTIVE: The curre…

  • The co-occurrence of potentially traumatic events (PTEs) and their associations with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in Indian and Malaysian adolescents

    Open AccessEnya Redican, Maria Louison Vang et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica2023

    BACKGROUND: Although it is well-established that people can experience multiple traumatic events, there are few studies examining the co-occurrence of such experiences in non-Western nations. The current study sought to examine the occurrence of multiple potentially traumatic experiences (PTEs) and their associations with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among adolescents from two Asian nations. METHODS: Latent class analysis (LCA) was employ…

    Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD) is included in ICD-11 and DSM-5-TR and includes a requirement of cultural deviance. This study examined endorsement rates and factors associated with endorsement of this criterion among Danish bereaved spouses (n = 425) and their adult children (n = 159) four years post-loss. In total, 7.5% (n = 44) participants endorsed this criterion. Both including and excluding the criterion, the prevalence rates for probable DS…

  • Prevalence and predictors of benevolent childhood experiences among a representative sample of young people

    Open AccessEnya Redican, 忠茂 山中 et al.ARTICLEBritish Journal of Psychology2023Referencias: 90

    Emerging research evidence suggests that benevolent childhood experiences (BCEs) may partly explain more favourable mental health outcomes among individuals affected by adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). However, much of this research has focused on adult populations. Consequently, this study sought to provide the first rigorous assessment of the prevalence and predictors of BCEs using a nationally representative sample of young people from No…
