Loneliness patterns across time and subsequent risk of psychotic experiences, depression, anxiety, and diminished well‐being in adolescents
BACKGROUND: Evidence on the association between loneliness and psychotic experiences in adolescents remains limited. Moreover, loneliness has typically been assessed at a single time point, which fails to capture its dynamic nature. We hypothesized that persistent loneliness, assessed across repeated measures, would be associated with psychotic experiences and other mental health problems. METHODS: Using longitudinal data from 3,171 participants …
Effectiveness of psychotherapy
The scientific output generated in psychology has surged in recent decades, including the number of studies investigating psychological treatments. To keep track of all this evidence, we developed the "Metapsy" meta-analytic research domain: a comprehensive system of open databases and tailored software that allows for rapid evidence generation. We leverage this novel infrastructure to summarize the effect of psychological treatment across 12 men…
Development and validation of a prediction model for rehospitalization among people with schizophrenia discharged from acute inpatient care
The model showed moderate discrimination of readmission after discharge. Carefully defining a research question by seeking needs among the population with chronic schizophrenia with multiple episodes may be key to building a useful model
What Is the Minimum Clinically Important Change in Negative Symptoms of Schizophrenia? PANSS Based Post-hoc Analyses of a Phase III Clinical Trial
Applying different methods led to different results, ranging between 7.3 and 18.5% improvement from the baseline for the MCID at its earliest occurrence in patients with predominantly negative symptoms of schizophrenia
No flips in the pool”
Linguistic hybridity is the process of the authorial unmasking of another’s speech, through a language that is double-accented and double-styled. The present study investigates how linguistic resources, especially code-switching is used for meaning making in local comedy shows in Hawai‘i. Local comedy is inseparable from the use of carnivalistic act. This act deconstructs attempts at stabilizing social systems by being playfully and non-violently…

Objective To provide personalized estimates of short-term and long-term relative efficacy of guided and unguided iCBT for depression using patient-level information. Data Sources We searched PubMed, Embase, PsycInfo, and Cochrane L…
Impact of Covid-2019 on school attendance problems
The GAD-7 and the PHQ-8 exhibit the same mathematical pattern of item responses in the general population
Our results suggest that the symptom criteria of generalized anxiety disorder and major depression have a common distribution pattern in the general population
State population indices predict Asian American and Pacific Islander successful substance use treatment completion
Cultural capital is a known factor supporting success in substance use disorder (SUD) treatment. We investigated Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) State population metrics in relation to SUD treatment completion for US clients from 2006-2017 ( N = 5,404,374). Metrics that may signify greater available cultural capital were State AAPI Percentage, State AAPI Percent Change, and State AAPI Population. AAPI Percentage, AAPI Percent Change we…
Substance use disorder treatment success
Background Provider-evaluated substance use treatment completion and client-reported substance use improvement are standards in determining treatment success. The relationship between these two outcomes is anecdotally understood in practice. However, the relationship has not been empirically determined and factors related to provider/client conflicting assessments are unknown. This study investigates treatment success by investigating consensus a…

National Prescription Patterns of Antidepressants in the Treatment of Adults With Major Depression in the US Between 1996 and 2015
Few studies have delineated the real-world, long-term trends of prescription patterns of antidepressants for patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). This study aims to describe their vicissitudes in the nationally representative sample of the US from 1996 to 2015 and explore their characteristics. We used the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey, a nationally representative database of the US population, between 1996 and 2015. We estimated the…
Age-Related Changes in Item Responses to the Patient Health Questionnaire-9
This study demonstrated that item responses for the PHQ-9 followed a similar mathematical pattern across the adult lifespan. Moreover, our findings suggested that the probability of a response of "nearly every day" played an important role in age-related changes in PHQ-9 total scores across adulthood
Risk perception, self-efficacy, trust for physician, depression, and behavior modification in diabetic patients
We evaluated the associations of risk perception, self-efficacy, and trust with two health promotion behaviors (food habits and exercise) and depressive mood. Diabetic patients aged between 40 and 64 ( n = 1195) were included in the analyses. Risk perception worsened behavioral changes in terms of food habits and depression, whereas self-efficacy and trust improved food habits, exercise, and depression; trust improved exercise and depression. In …
Place and membership categorization in a Hawaiian language radio show
Recent articles by prominent scholars of discourse and interaction have renewed the debate over the relationship between membership categorization analysis (MCA) and conversation analysis (CA). Many consider CA and MCA as mutually informing, and that is the position I take in this paper. MCA has been conducted mainly with monolingual data, but in this study I examine Hawaiian language media talk by multilingual speakers. Place formulation is ofte…
Do newspapers preferentially cover biomedical studies involving national scientists
News value theory rates geographical proximity as an important factor in the process of issue selection by journalists. But does this apply to science journalism? Previous observational studies investigating whether newspapers preferentially cover scientific studies involving national scientists have generated conflicting answers. Here we used a database of 123 biomedical studies, 113 of them involving at least one research team working in eight …
Comparative efficacy and acceptability of 21 antidepressant drugs for the acute treatment of adults with major depressive disorder
Stability of the Distribution of Patient Health Questionnaire-9 Scores Against Age in the General Population
Background: Epidemiological studies using the nine-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) have reported inconsistencies regarding the relationship between age and total scores. To determine whether this discrepancy is due to the stability of the distribution of PHQ-9 total scores against age, we investigated whether the total score distribution remains stable during adulthood, and also investigated the mathematical patterns of the total score …
Item Response Patterns on the Patient Health Questionnaire-8 in a Nationally Representative Sample of US Adults
Recent studies have shown that item responses on the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) and Kessler Screening Scale for Psychological Distress (K6) exhibit the same characteristic item response patterns among the general population. However, the distributional patterns of responses on the Patient Health Questionnaire-8 (PHQ-8) among the general population have not been adequately studied. Thus, we conducted a pattern analys…
Standardization of health outcomes assessment for depression and anxiety
An international standard of health outcomes assessment has the potential to improve clinical decision making, enhance health care for the benefit of patients, and facilitate scientific knowledge
Localizing humor through parodying white voice in Hawai‘i stand-up comedy
This discourse analytic study investigates the strategic use of represented talk and thought in Hawai‘i stand-up comedy performances. Utilizing the methods and findings of membership categorization, and stylization, I analyze how Local comedians make discursive contrasts by deploying Pidgin (Hawai‘i Creole) to voice Locals and by deploying “Haole” (
Reliability and Validity of the Japanese Version of the Coping Inventory for Adults for Stressful Situations in Healthy People
The present study examined the validity and reliability of the Japanese version of the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations-2nd EditionTM (CISS; hereafter the CISS-J). The participants were 1,268 healthy Japanese individuals. The factor analyses yielded three major scales (task-, emotion-, and avoidance-oriented coping) corresponding to the original version. In addition, the avoidance-oriented scale of the CISS-J contained two subscales (Dis…
Year Course of Social Adjustment in Major Depression
Background: It is now widely acknowledged that depression is accompanied by major deficits in social functioning. However, the course of this dysfunction and its relationship with depressive symptoms in the long term is less understood. Methods: The Group for Longitudinal Affective Disorders Study (GLADS) in Japan has conducted a 10-year prospective, serial follow-up of a cohort of mood disorder patients starting treatment for their index episode…

Factor Structure of Social Support and Its Relationship To Minor Psychiatric Disorders Among Japanese Adolescents
Although social support has been one of the preferred topics in health psychology for the past two decades, there still remains controversy about its construct and the measurement model for it. The People In Your Life (PIYL) scale, a self-report adaptation of Henderson et al.'s Interview Schedule for Social Interactions (1980), appears to be an outgrowth of the recent developments in this domain. We administered PIYL to two samples, 550 and 434 e…
Social Support and Adjustment to a Novel Social Environment
The present article aims to examine the ways in which social support may affect the adaptation of individuals to a novel social environment. A distinctive feature of this research was the assessment of social support both before and after entering a completely new network of social relationships. A cohort of international exchange high school students (N = 242) was administered a battery of self-report ques tionnaires dealing with personality tra…
Cross-cultural validation of the Beck Depression Inventory-II in Japan
The performance of the K6 and K10 screening scales for psychological distress in the Australian National Survey of Mental Health and Well-Being
Background. Two new screening scales for psychological distress, the K6 and K10, have been developed but their relative efficiency has not been evaluated in comparison with existing scales. Method. The Australian National Survey of Mental Health and Well-Being, a nationally representative household survey, administered the WHO Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) to assess 30-day DSM-IV disorders. The K6 and K10 were also administe…
The performance of the Japanese version of the K6 and K10 in the World Mental Health Survey Japan
Two new screening scales for psychological distress, the K6 and K10, have been developed using the item response theory and shown to outperform existing screeners in English. We developed their Japanese versions using the standard backtranslaton method and included them in the World Mental Health Survey Japan (WMH‐J), which is a psychiatric epidemiologic study conducted in seven communities across Japan with 2436 participants. The WMH‐J used the …
Loss of Fractal Heart Rate Dynamics in Depressive Hemodialysis Patients
Objective: To assess the relationship between depression, reduced heart rate (HR) variability, and altered HR dynamics among patients with end-stage renal disease who are receiving hemodialysis (HD) therapy. Methods: We analyzed the 24-hour electrocardiograms of 119 outpatients receiving chronic HD. HR variability was quantified with the standard deviation of normal-to-normal R-R intervals, the triangular index, and the powers of the high- (HF), …
Screening for serious mental illness in the general population with the K6 screening scale
Data are reported on the background and performance of the K6 screening scale for serious mental illness (SMI) in the World Health Organization (WHO) World Mental Health (WMH) surveys. The K6 is a six‐item scale developed to provide a brief valid screen for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 4th edition (DSM‐IV) SMI based on the criteria in the US ADAMHA Reorganization Act. Although methodological studies have documented good K…
Intertextuality, mediation, and members’ categories in focus groups on humor
This paper extends studies on intertextuality into a more explicitly interactional context. I examine the actual process of intertextuality where comedy audiences construct recombinant selves through making sense of various membership categories as well as through making sense of a certain kind of comedy. The examination of this process requires receptive research; however, most studies leave the interpretive process unanalyzed. Conducting both a…
