Reciprocal relationships between positive expectancies and positive emotions during the Covid-19 pandemic
INTRODUCTION: Previous research highlighted the importance of investigating distinct protective factors that predict the experience of positive emotions during stressful situations, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. In this longitudinal study, we specifically focused on positive expectancies towards the future (optimism, response expectancy, and response hope) in relation to the experience of positive emotions during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our prima…
“If we don't speak the language, we aren't offered the same opportunities”
Context: Despite efforts to enhance equity, disparities in early palliative care (PC) access for historically minoritized patients with advanced breast cancer (ABC) persist. Insight into patient and clinician perspectives are needed to inform future models aimed at improving equity in PC access and outcomes. Objectives: To explore qualitative barriers and facilitators to early PC access in an urban setting with Black and Latina women with ABC. Me…

The MW application is a useful and easy to use tool that can be used for the accurate measurement of emotions, which will be complimented in future with additional behavioral parameters to provide a comprehensive and dynamic assessment
The longitudinal links between shame, eating disorders and social anxiety symptoms
A brief history of Romanian psychology
The evolution of Romanian psychology followed several stages, similarly to other countries in Eastern Europe, yet with its own particularities. The first psychology institutes were introduced by former students of Wilhelm Wundt, and the field saw a rapid development, with distinguished scholars making relevant scientific contributions. However, after the communist regime was enforced, psychology stagnated somewhat due to ideological, financial, a…

A Controlled Pilot Study of the Wish Outcome Obstacle Plan Strategy for Spouses of Persons With Early-Stage Dementia
WOOP is a promising, brief intervention to improve dementia CPs' well-being that may also positively affect their partners with dementia
Managing Distress Using Mobile Prescriptions of Psychological Pills
Background: Although numerous mental health apps are commercially available, only a few of them have been empirically tested. PsyPills is an interactive and personalized mobile application, based on emotion regulation research and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy principles, that can function as a stand-alone intervention aimed at offering immediate stress relief. Objective: In this paper, we describe the newly developed PsyPills app and present…
Developing Joint Attention for Children with Autism in Robot-Enhanced Therapy
About the Irrationality of the Health Field
Looking back through the current lens, along history, the health field has been the stage for various scientific (including also the philosophical-based approaches before modern science), pseudoscientific (e.g., astrology), and non-scientific (e.g., voodoo) practices/interventions. Typically, a health intervention has a practical component (i.e., the treatment) and a theoretical one (i.e., the theory/mechanism of change underlying the efficacy/ef…
Why Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Is the Current Gold Standard of Psychotherapy
OPINION article Front. Psychiatry, 29 January 2018Sec. Psychopathology Volume 9 - 2018 | https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyt.2018.00004
The effects of cognitive behavioral therapy are not systematically falling
In a meta-analysis, Johnsen and Friborg (2015) reported a significant negative relationship between publication year and the effect sizes (ESs) of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for depressive disorders, suggesting its effectiveness was falling. We identified a series of methodological and conceptual caveats and consequently redid the meta-analysis. We used the same inclusion criteria, but only included randomized controlled trials and search…
The Role of Cognitive Discrepancy Between Perception of National Character and Personality in the Functioning and Adaptation of 46 Countries
The role of distorted cognitions in human functioning/adaptation is well-established at the individual level. We argue that the discrepancy between perceived national character and the actual national character (i.e., personality traits) is a form of distorted cognition at the group/country level and thus could have a negative impact on the functioning/adaptation of a given country. In this study, we computed this discrepancy score (the perceived…
Des modèles et simulations spatiotemporelles comme « objets intermédiaires » pour mettre en débat l'étalement urbain dans l'île de La Réunion
Un dispositif partenarial mobilisant un outil de simulation paysagère, Ocelet, a été conçu comme support d'un exercice de prospective territoriale sur une intercommunalité de l'île de La Réunion où le mitage agricole représente un enjeu important. La démarche consiste à coconstruire, au sein d'une arène d'une vingtaine d'institutions, des scénarios d'évolution de l'étalement urbain. Pour favoriser ces interactions, des modèles contextualisés sont…
Preferred Interpersonal Distances
Human spatial behavior has been the focus of hundreds of previous research studies. However, the conclusions and generalizability of previous studies on interpersonal distance preferences were limited by some important methodological and sampling issues. The objective of the present study was to compare preferred interpersonal distances across the world and to overcome the problems observed in previous studies. We present an extensive analysis of…
Robot Enhanced Therapy for Children with Autism Disorders
Children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) have persistent deficits in social communication and social interaction, as well as restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities [1]. The prevalence of autism is estimated at 1-2 per 1000, and close to 6 per 1000 for ASD [23]. ASD is a lifelong disorder, and many individuals need high levels of support throughout their lives [28]. Even though no cure has been found, early inte…
A Survey of Expectations About the Role of Robots in Robot-Assisted Therapy for Children with ASD
You are Such a Bad Child! Appraisals as Mechanisms of Parental Negative and Positive Affect
Although parent cognitions are considered important predictors that determine specific emotional reactions and parental practices, models on the cognitive strategies for regulating parental distress or positive emotions are not well developed. Our aim was to investigate the nature of cognitions involved in parental distress and satisfaction, in terms of their specificity (parental or general) and their processing levels (inferential or evaluative…
The role of specific and core dysfunctional beliefs in breast cancer radiotherapy patients' fatigue
The goal of the study was to examine the relationships among fatigue catastrophizing, core dysfunctional beliefs, and fatigue in breast cancer radiotherapy patients. Seventy-eight patients participated in the study (mean age = 56.3, standard deviation = 10.5). Patients completed questionnaires on fatigue catastrophizing, core dysfunctional beliefs, and fatigue in their last week of radiotherapy. Using bootstrapping procedures to obtain estimates …
Moderating effects of empathic concern and personal distress on the emotional reactions of disaster volunteers
This study examines stress and mood outcomes in community volunteers who undertook one week's worth of post-disaster relief work in L'Aquila, Italy, which had been hit by an earthquake four months earlier. The study team obtained pre- and post-relief work data from 130 volunteers involved in activities such as preparing food for the displaced, cleaning the camps and distributing clean linen. The Perceived Stress Scale, the State-Trait Anxiety Inv…
Slowing Down the Clock
A review of 24 experiments investigated the factors that produce a subjective time dilation. The aim of this review was to investigate the magnitude of the obtained time dilation. The mean time duration judgment ratio of subjective time to objective time for the selected studies was 1.31, SD = .24. The analyses revealed that experimental studies investigating subjective time dilation tend to obtain small to moderate time dilation and that several…

The efficacy of a short cognitive–behavioral parent program in the treatment of externalizing behavior disorders in Romanian foster care children
Attractiveness of Leg Length
The leg-to-body ratio (LBR) is a morphological index that has been shown to influence a person's attractiveness. In our research, 3,103 participants from 27 nations rated the physical attractiveness of seven male and seven female silhouettes varying in LBR. We found that male and female silhouettes with short and excessively long legs were perceived as less attractive across all nations. Hence, the LBR may significantly influence perceptions of p…

Social Interaction and Social Cognition in Aging
The focus of the present study was on the relationship between levels of social interaction and social cognitive abilities of elderly people. Measures of social interaction consisted of a series of quantitative descriptors regarding the magnitude and diversity of social role involvement. Measures of social cognition consisted of (1) person perception; (2) conceptualization of alternative solutions to interpersonal problems, and (3) ability to coo…
