Hopelessness for family members of individuals with borderline personality disorder
Family members and loved ones of individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) can experience high levels of distress. Types of distress reported by family members include burden, grief, depression, guilt, and powerlessness. Hopelessness is a construct that has received little attention despite its potential relevance for this group. This study sought to examine, and assess potential change in, hopelessness among individuals attending a …

Physical and mental illness comorbidity among individuals with frequent self-harm episodes
Physical and mental illness comorbidity was high among individuals with frequent self-harm episodes. Male gender and alcohol abuse were associated with highly lethal self-harm methods. The mental and physical illness comorbidity of individuals with frequent self-harm episodes should be addressed via a biopsychosocial assessment and subsequent indicated treatment interventions
Investigating the effectiveness of three school based interventions for preventing psychotic experiences over a year period – a secondary data analysis study of a randomized control trial
This study provides the first evidence for a school based intervention that reduce & prevent PEs in adolescence. This intervention is a combination of a school-based screening for psychopathology and subsequent referral intervention significantly reduced PEs in adolescents. Although further research is needed, our findings point to the effectiveness of school-based programmes for prevention of future mental health problems

Real-time suicide surveillance supporting policy and practice
Suicide mortality rates are a strong indicator of population mental-health and can be used to determine the efficacy of prevention measures. Monitoring suicide mortality rates in real-time provides an evidence-base to inform targeted interventions in a timely manner and accelerate suicide prevention responses. This paper outlines the importance of real-time suicide surveillance in the context of policy and practice, with a particular focus on pub…
Mental Health Promotion and Intervention in Occupational Settings
Depression and anxiety are the most prevalent mental health difficulties in the EU, causing immense suffering and costing the global economy EUR 1 trillion each year in lost productivity. Employees in construction, health and information and communications technology have an elevated risk of mental health difficulties. Most mental health interventions for the workplace have been targeted at larger companies and small and medium-sized enterprises …
Psychosocial Outcomes of Individuals Attending a Suicide Bereavement Peer Support Group
Individuals bereaved by suicide represent an important group in terms of postvention. While peer support groups are often accessed by those bereaved, few studies have examined their impact in terms of physical and mental health wellbeing. The aim of this study was to examine psychosocial outcomes of individuals attending suicide bereavement peer support groups in Ireland. Between August 2020 and June 2021, all members were invited to complete a s…
Heaney's The Cure at Troy and the Christian Virtue of Hope
Heaney’s The Cure at Troy and the Christian Virtue of Hope Paul Corcoran ‘Believe that a further shore Is reachable from here’. Introduction The penultimate chorus of Seamus Heaney’s Cure at Troy contains perhaps the poet’s most oft-quoted words. They cap the tone of a work that ‘proceeds from, and ends in, optimism’.1 Delivered through an adaptation of Sophocles’ ancient Greek tragedy, Philoctetes, and addressed delicately to a divided Ireland e…
Repeat Self-Harm Following Hospital-Presenting Intentional Drug Overdose among Young People—A National Registry Study
Young males are at increased risk of repeat self-harm and method-switching following IDO and the type and quantity of drugs taken are further indicators of risk. Interventions targeting IDO among young people are needed that ensure that mental health assessments are undertaken and which address access to drugs

John Stuart Mill's Political Pessimism
John Stuart Mill devoted much of his life to developing a ‘science of morality’ to enhance the social, moral and intellectual character of individuals and society as a whole. His liberal aspirations included the reform of legal and political institutions according to utilitarian principles and consistent with personal liberty, and the development of a diverse and creative culture. Paradoxically, Mill, the liberal optimist, was also a pessimist ab…

John Locke on Native Right, Colonial Possession, and the Concept ofVacuum domicilium
The early paragraphs of John Locke’s Second Treatise of Government (1690) describe a poetic idyll of property acquisition widely supposed by contemporary theorists and historians to have cast the template for imperial possessions in the New World. This reading ignores the surprises lurking in Locke’s later chapters on conquest, usurpation, and tyranny, where he affirms that native rights to lands and possessions survive to succeeding generations.…

Bullying Victimization and Suicide Ideation and Behavior Among Adolescents in Europe
Postcolonial Genetic Criticism
This article explores the interface between two fields of enquiry that have developed with rather differing sets of priorities: textual genetics and postcolonial studies. Textual genetics has placed the emphasis on writing as a process, deeply influenced by a whole range of factors both literary and non-literary. Its attendant desacralization of the notion of the 'definitive' text as the prime object of study, or as a privileged site for the unde…
Pathological Internet Use and Risk-Behaviors among European Adolescents
Risk-behaviors are a major contributor to the leading causes of morbidity among adolescents and young people; however, their association with pathological Internet use (PIU) is relatively unexplored, particularly within the European context. The main objective of this study is to investigate the association between risk-behaviors and PIU in European adolescents. This cross-sectional study was conducted within the framework of the FP7 European Uni…

Characteristics of small areas with high rates of hospital-treated self-harm
BACKGROUND: Previous research has shown an inconsistent relationship between the spatial distribution of hospital treated self-harm and area-level factors such as deprivation and social fragmentation. However, many of these studies have been confined to urban centres, with few focusing on rural settings and even fewer studies carried out at a national level. Furthermore, no previous research has investigated if travel time to hospital services ca…
Alcohol Consumption Patterns among Adolescents are Related to Family Structure and Exposure to Drunkenness within the Family
There is expedient evidence showing that differences in adolescent alcohol consumption and other risk-behaviour depend on both family structure and family member drunkenness exposure. Data were obtained among adolescents (N = 12,115, mean age 14.9 ± 0.89) in Austria, Estonia, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, Italy,Romania, Slovenia and Spain within the European Union'ss 7th Framework Programme funded project, 'Saving and Empowering Youn…

First‐time mothers
Aims and objectives. To examine the relationships between social support, maternal parental self‐efficacy and postnatal depression in first‐time mothers at 6 weeks post delivery. Background. Social support conceptualised and measured in different ways has been found to positively influence the mothering experience as has maternal parental self‐efficacy. No research exists which has measured the relationships between social support, underpinned by…
Presidential concession speeches
Concession speeches by defeated American presidential candidates constitute a readily identifiable genre, but they have been largely ignored in the massive literature on campaign communications and presidential rhetoric. An analysis of concession speeches by defeated presidential candidates from 7952 to 1992 reveals consistent patterns of strategy, style, and content. The speeches are formulaic and performed as an awkward, perfunctory gesture at …

The area-level association between hospital-treated deliberate self-harm, deprivation and social fragmentation in Ireland
BACKGROUND: The extensive literature on the area-level association between socioeconomic characteristics and suicide indicates that the more deprived and socially fragmented an area, the higher its suicide rate. Relatively few studies have examined the association between the incidence of non-fatal suicidal behaviour and area characteristics. AIM: This study investigated the area-level association between hospital-treated deliberate self-harm, de…

The Bourgeois and Other Villains
Early French socialism reconsidered—I. The propaganda of Fourier and Cabet
French socialism in the 1830s and 1840s has often been criticised for its motley assembly of hopes and ideals, which is perhaps another way of saying that no single thinker dominated the period with a system of ideas which formed a paradigm for the general movement. The diversity of early French socialist thought always involves studying some figures and ignoring others, thus complicating any simple or comprehensive portrayal of socialism in this…

Travel in Twentieth-Century French and Francophone Cultures
By Charles Forsdick. Oxford, New York, Oxford University Press, 2005. xxiii+255 pp. Hb $90.00. There is something insidiously subversive about the way this book digs beneath the surface of the banal and the ‘everyday’ to reveal interconnections between orders of experience and knowledge that are not usually allowed to contaminate each other. The suspicion of witnessing a subversive activity unfold undoubtedly comes partly from the sense of transg…

The Cambridge Introduction to Francophone Literature
The literature of French-speaking countries forms a distinct body of work quite separate from literature written in France itself, offering a passionate creative engagement with their postcolonial cultures. This book provides an introduction to the literatures that have emerged in the French-speaking countries and regions of the world in recent decades, illustrating their astonishing breadth and diversity, and exploring their constant state of te…

Deliberate self‐harm within an international community sample of young people
Background: Deliberate self‐harm among young people is an important focus of policy and practice internationally. Nonetheless, there is little reliable comparative international information on its extent or characteristics. We have conducted a seven‐country comparative community study of deliberate self‐harm among young people. Method: Over 30,000 mainly 15‐ and 16‐year‐olds completed anonymous questionnaires at school in Australia, Belgium, Engl…

Impact of different pack sizes of paracetamol in the United Kingdom and Ireland on intentional overdoses
The difference in paracetamol pack size legislation between England and Ireland does not appear to have resulted in a major difference in sizes of overdoses. This is because more pack equivalents are taken in overdoses in Ireland, possibly reflecting differing enforcement of sales advice. Differences in access to clinical services may also be relevant
