  • A dyadic stress induction tool for experimental investigation of adult patients with cancer and their family caregivers

    Open AccessY Kim, Charles S Carver et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Behavioral Medicine2025Referencias: 56

    BACKGROUND: Medical illnesses are major stressors not only for the patients but also for their family caregivers, yet existing tools are inadequate to assess mechanistic response patterns to such stressors. PURPOSE: We sought to validate a stress induction task that pertains to close relationships and health-related concerns with adult patients with cancer and their family caregivers. METHODS: Patients newly diagnosed with colorectal cancer (n = …

  • Distress and quality of life in an ethnically diverse sample awaiting breast cancer surgery

    Open AccessWhitney N Rebholz, Eric Cash et al.ARTICLEJournal of Health Psychology2018Citada por: 2Referencias: 75

    Poor breast cancer-related quality of life is associated with flattened cortisol rhythms and inflammation in breast cancer survivors and women with advanced disease. We explored the associations of cancer-specific distress (Impact of Events Scale), mood (Profile of Mood States), activity/sleep (wake after sleep onset, 24-hour autocorrelation coefficient) and cortisol (diurnal slope) circadian rhythms, and inflammation (interleukin-6) with quality…

  • Longitudinal Association of Poor Sleep Quality With Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting in Patients With Breast Cancer

    Dooyoung Jung, Kwang-Min Lee et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2016

    OBJECTIVE: Risk factors for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) include older age, female sex, alcohol consumption, and a history of motion sickness. Although gastrointestinal symptoms are found to be related with sleep and mood in other conditions, little is known about their effects on CINV. METHODS: This prospective observational study recruited patients with early-stage breast cancer who had recovered from surgery before receiving…

  • Higher Vagal Activity as Related to Survival in Patients With Advanced Breast Cancer

    Janine Giese‐Davis, Janine Giese-Davis et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2015

    OBJECTIVE: High levels of high-frequency heart rate variability (HF-HRV), related to parasympathetic-nervous-system functioning, have been associated with longer survival in patients with myocardial infarction and acute trauma and in patients undergoing palliative care. From animal studies linking higher vagal activity with better immune system functioning and reduced metastases, we hypothesized that higher HF-HRV would predict longer survival in…

    Open AccessAnn Pongsakul, Meena Cherian et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2015

    The World Health Organization (WHO) has recently promoted a strategy focusing on people-centered and integrated health services (PCIHS). There has also been increasing recognition that surgical services are an important component of integrated care. The goals of this study were to determine: 1) the extent to which the national health plans or strategies are in alignment with the PCIHS strategic directions, and 2) whether and how surgical care has…

  • Reality versus fantasy

    Constance J Dalenberg, Bethany L Brand et al.ARTICLEPsychological Bulletin2014

    We respond to Lynn et al.'s (2014) comments on our review (Dalenberg et al., 2012) demonstrating the superiority of the trauma model (TM) over the fantasy model (FM) in explaining the trauma-dissociation relationship. Lynn et al. conceded that our meta-analytic results support the TM hypothesis that trauma exposure is a causal risk factor for the development of dissociation. Although Lynn et al. suggested that our meta-analyses were selective, we…

  • Disorders of Extreme Stress

    Open AccessEtzel Cardeña, Lisa D Butler et al.OTHERHandbook of Psychology, Second…2012

    In this chapter we review the concepts of stress and trauma and describe conditions within the American Psychiatric Association's (APA) Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders–Fourth Edition (DSM-IV; APA, 1994, 2000) that include trauma as an etiological criterion (i.e., acute stress disorder and posttraumatic stress disorder or PTSD), as well as disorders strongly associated with extreme stress and trauma—namely, the dissociative a…

  • Evaluation of the evidence for the trauma and fantasy models of dissociation

    Constance J Dalenberg, Bethany L Brand et al.ARTICLEPsychological Bulletin2012Citada por: 10

    The relationship between a reported history of trauma and dissociative symptoms has been explained in 2 conflicting ways. Pathological dissociation has been conceptualized as a response to antecedent traumatic stress and/or severe psychological adversity. Others have proposed that dissociation makes individuals prone to fantasy, thereby engendering confabulated memories of trauma. We examine data related to a series of 8 contrasting predictions b…

  • Perceived Benefits and Psychosocial Outcomes of a Brief Existential Family Intervention for Cancer Patients/Survivors

    Open AccessRobert W Garlan, Lisa D Butler et al.ARTICLEOMEGA - Journal of Death and Dying2011

    This study assessed a range of benefits from participation in a brief existential intervention consisting of a semi-structured videotaped interview with cancer patients and their families designed to illuminate a life legacy for the family (the Life Tape Project [LTP]). Results indicated the majority reported intervention-specific benefits, especially in the areas of symbolic immortality (passing on personal values and philosophy), self-reflectio…

  • A comparison of trauma-focused and present-focused group therapy for survivors of childhood sexual abuse

    Catherine C Classen, Catherine Classen et al.ARTICLEPsychological Trauma Theory…2010

    This randomized controlled trial compared trauma-focused group psychotherapy (TFGT) with presentfocused group psychotherapy (PFGT) and a waitlist condition for 166 survivors of childhood sexual abuse who were at risk for HIV infection. Primary outcomes included risk for HIV infection (based on sexual revictimization, drug and alcohol use, and risky sex) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. It was hypothesized that TFGT would be supe…

  • Use and misuse of the consolidated standards of reporting trials (Consort) guidelines to assess research findings

    Helena C Kraemer, Thomas Kuchler et al.ARTICLEPsychological Bulletin2009

    The basic principles underlying randomized clinical trials have been known for more than 50 years. The Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) guidelines, published in 1996 and based on those principles, are a valuable guide to what needs to be reported from any trial within word-limit constraints, but they do not provide guidelines to the decisions that have to be made to generate a trial with credible results. Using these guideline…

  • Depression and Stress Reactivity in Metastatic Breast Cancer

    Janine Giese‐Davis, Janine Giese-Davis et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2006

    Objective: Cancer-related distress due to the psychological and physical challenges of metastatic breast cancer (MBC) may result in symptoms of depression, which negatively affects quality and may influence quantity of life. This study investigated how depression affects MBC stress reactivity, including autonomic (ANS) and hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis function. Method: Forty-five nondepressed and 45 depressed patients with MBC underw…

  • The Life Tape Project

    Open AccessErnest H Rosenbaum, Ernest Rosenbaum et al.ARTICLEOMEGA - Journal of Death and Dying2006

    Cancer poses a powerful threat to the emotional equilibrium of patients and their families. A key role of the family and medical team is to provide a supportive environment as the patient confronts the reality of death. Few interventions have been developed to help families support patients in dealing with fears of death and dying. We present one such approach, the Life Tape Project (LTP), that helps bring families closer together, increases comm…
