Determining the acceptance of e-mental health interventions in elite athletes using the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology
The UTAUT model has proven to be a valuable instrument in predicting of acceptance of e-mental health interventions in elite athletes. Given the strong association between acceptance and future use, new interventions should focus on the explored factors to establish effective e-mental health interventions for elite athletes
Psychological Burden during the Covid-19 Pandemic in Female Caregivers of Preterm versus Term Born Children
2742 parents-predominantly females-took part in the study, 2025 parents of full-term and 717 parents of preterm born children. Female caregivers of full-term children reported significantly more depression symptoms than those of preterm children during the second lockdown of the COVID-19 pandemic. The PB correlated with increased COVID-19 anxiety as well as with increased generalized anxiety and depression symptoms. Female caregivers of preterm c…
Implementing biofeedback treatment in a psychosomatic-psychotherapeutic inpatient unit
Even though patient satisfaction and staff motivation are high, the implementation of biofeedback in an inpatient unit requires special actions to be taken. Not only should personnel resources be planned and available in advance of implementation but also be the workflow for biofeedback practitioners as easy and quality of biofeedback treatment as high as possible. Consequently, the implementation of a manualized biofeedback treatment should be c…
Validation of the English Version of the General Dietary Behavior Inventory (GDBI-E)
In medical science and practice, dietary behavior is mostly assessed by item-extensive questionnaires (e.g., food-frequency-questionnaires) or by questionnaires focusing on psychological aspects of dietary behavior neglecting dietary quality or quantity. In consequence, these questionnaires do not capture the full bandwidth of dietary behavior or are less effective in the assessment of dietary behavior because of the large item pools. Therefore, …
Fear of Death during Covid-19 Does Not Explain Post-Infection Depression Symptoms beyond Reported Symptoms during the Infection in Covid-19 Survivors
The COVID-19 pandemic poses an unprecedented global burden to the general population and, in particular, to individuals who have been infected with SARS-CoV-2. In the context of the discussion about "post COVID-19", the aim of the study was to advance research on mental health and long-term consequences after COVID-19. In total, 214 COVID-19 survivors (female: 54.2%; hospitalized: 36.7%) participated in the repeated cross-sectional assessment. In…
Levels, Predictors, and Distribution of Interpersonal Solidarity during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Since introducing the first non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) to decelerate the spread of the virus, European governments have highlighted the role of "solidarity". However, the role and levels of solidarity, especially during the past lockdowns, is uncertain. The present study thus explores the levels, the role, and the distribution of received and demonstrated interpersonal solidarity during the COVID-19 pandemic. This pooled cross-sectio…
Different Correlates of Covid-19-Related Adherent and Dysfunctional Safety Behavior
Introduction: Safety behaviors are key elements in reducing the spread of the COVID-19 virus, but have also assumed excessive proportions in form of panic buying groceries. This raises the question whether these behaviors are independent or related to each other. Adherent safety behavior including increased hygiene and physical distancing appears inherently adherent and prosocial, while dysfunctional safety behavior such as panic buying most prob…
Motivation-Enhancing Psychotherapy for Inpatients With Anorexia Nervosa (Manna)
Patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) are frequently characterized by an unstable readiness to change and high ambivalence toward treatment. Enhancing readiness to behavioral change therefore plays an essential role for adherence to treatment especially for severely ill patients treated in inpatient settings. Therefore, a novel 10 week program for the individual psychotherapy sessions was designed using elements from motivational interviewing to be…
Evaluation of the E-Mental Health Mindfulness-Based and Skills-Based “CoPE It” Intervention to Reduce Psychological Distress in Times of Covid-19
Background: The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic poses immense challenges for health care systems and population-wide mental health. The e-mental health intervention "CoPE It" has been developed to offer standardized and manualized support to overcome psychological distress caused by the pandemic. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of "CoPE It" in terms of reducing distress (primary outcome), depression and anxiety symptoms, and improving s…
Changes in Substance Use and Mental Health Burden among Women during the Second Wave of Covid-19 in Germany
The mental health burden remained high during the second wave of COVID-19 and alcohol, nicotine and other substance use increased. However, the association between mental health and substance use was weak. Psychological distress does not seem to be the main motivator of substance use
Validation and Test of Measurement Invariance of the Adapted Health Consciousness Scale (HCS-G)
The objective of this study was the translation and validation of a health consciousness scale in order to provide an economically and empirically confirmed measurement of health consciousness, which is associated with health-related behavior. We evaluated this translation on the basis of psychometric testing in a German convenience sample. A cross-sectional online survey ( n = 470) was carried out using a translated version of the health conscio…
Mental Health Burden of German Cancer Patients before and after the Outbreak of Covid-19
The aim of this study was to analyze individual changes in cancer patients' mental health before and after the COVID-19 outbreak, and to explore predictors of mental health impairment. Over a two-week period (16-30 March 2020), 150 cancer patients in Germany participated in this study. Validated instruments assessed demographic and medical data, depression and anxiety symptoms (PHQ-2, GAD-2), distress (DT), and health status (EQ-5D-3L). All instr…
Generalized Anxiety as a Risk Factor for Dysfunctional Eating Behavior after Obesity Surgery during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Purpose: The present study investigates the impact of obesity surgery on mental health (i.e., eating behavior and distress) during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: Two hundred fifty-four participants were recruited via social media. One hundred fourteen (44.53%) of them were surgery candidates (waiting for obesity surgery), while 142 (55.46%) had already undergone surgery. Participants who underwent surgery were compared to participants that did n…
Mental health burden of patients with diabetes before and after the initial outbreak of Covid-19
The results indicate a negative impact of the initial COVID-19 outbreak on mental health and health status in patients with diabetes. In order to improve the efficacy of psychological support strategies for diabetes patients during the pandemic, possible predictors of mental health impairment such as the aforementioned should be examined more thoroughly and addressed more openly
The Impact of Psychological Resources on Body Mass Index in Obesity Surgery Candidates
Psychological resources seem to be relevant in the context of obesity surgery. Good psychological resources show plausible associations with less depression and a more adequate eating behavior. The evaluation of psychological resources in obesity surgery candidates allows the identification of patients at risk. Competences of patients should be addressed in the context of surgery. Our findings build a foundation for a more individualized supporti…
Perceived Stress Mediates the Relationship of Body Image and Depressive Symptoms in Individuals With Obesity
Obesity is a world-wide increasing condition classified by a BMI ≥ 30 kg/m 2 that is frequently accompanied by various somatic comorbidities as well as an increased risk for mental comorbidities. Studies show associations of obesity with symptoms of depression, lower quality of life, and higher (perceived) stress compared to the general population. Body image has also been shown to play an important role in eating and weight disorders. The presen…
