  • Shortening a Quality of Life Questionnaire for Adolescents with Chronic Pain and its Psychometric Qualities

    Open AccessVivian Merlijn, V P B M Merlijn et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports2002

    Chronic pain is a common experience in adolescence. To measure its influence on quality of life in adolescents with chronic headache, Langeveld developed the 71-item scale, Quality of Life Headache-Youth. On the basis of this questionnaire we develop a shortened list, also suitable for other pain locations to enhance compliance. For this, we tested a sample of 98 adolescents from an open population with chronic benign pain. This article presents …

    A C Dudok deWit, H J Duivenvoorden et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1998

    OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of predictive DNA testing on participants at risk for either Huntington disease (HD), or familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), or hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). METHOD: Psychological distress was measured with the Impact of Event Scale before testing and at 1 week and 6 months after the test result, in individuals at 50% risk for either HD (N = 25), FAP (N = 23), or HBOC (N = 10). RESULTS: A margina…

  • Stress among Seamen

    Open AccessG Agterberg, J PasschierARTICLEPsychological Reports1998

    The origin and type of stress among seamen were investigated by means of interviews with three harbor physicians in Rotterdam. The main psychological problems encountered were loneliness, homesickness, and "burn-out" syndrome. The problems were primarily caused by long periods away from home, the decreased number of seamen per ship, and by increased automatization. Quantification of the prevalence and severity of these problems is necessary to el…

  • Mothers' Trait Anxiety and Adaptation to an Infant Born Subsequent to the Loss of a Late Pregnancy

    Open AccessG Agterberg, J W Wladimiroff et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1997

    21 women with one infant each born subsequent to the loss of a late pregnancy were invited to complete the State Trait Anxiety Inventory, and two Dutch mother-child adaptation scales one month after delivery. Scores on trait anxiety appeared to be significantly related to maladaptive behavior of the mother to her child in the first four weeks following the birth, suggesting that women with high anxiety and a past of lost pregnancy are at risk for…

    Open AccessJ A M Hunfeld, J W Wladimiroff et al.ARTICLEBritish Journal of Medical…1997Cited by: 2

    The emotional reactions of women ( N = 29) after perinatal loss were evaluated over a four‐year period by means of standardized questionnaires and a semi‐structured interview. Eleven women (38 per cent) displayed a level of general psychological distress which is clinically significant. Grief reactions declined significantly during this period, except for difficulties with coping and despair concerning the loss, and a quarter of the women still s…

  • Do Couples Grieve Differently following Infant Loss

    Open AccessJ A M Hunfeld, Marjan Mourik et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1996

    13 couples who lost an infant due to a major congenital anomaly were assessed using the Perinatal Grief Scale. Contrary to the research findings of generally less intensity of grief in men, couples did not differ significantly in this respect one-half year after the loss of their infant. On the other hand, there was no strong relationship between the scores of women and men, indicating that, apart from intensity they grieve differently

  • Pregnancy Termination, Perceived Control, and Perinatal Grief

    Open AccessJ A M Hunfeld, J W Wladimiroff et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1994

    In a group of 30 women who underwent induced delivery after they had been informed of a lethal fetal anomaly, 18 women reported that this was the outcome of a clear decision process and 12 reported that they had no choice. In contrast to findings in other research areas, the experience of having perceived control was not associated with lower grief scores three months after perinatal loss

  • Trait-Anxiety and Achievement Motivation are Positively Correlated with Memory Performance in Patients Who Visit a Geriatric Outpatient Clinic with Amnestic Symptoms

    Open AccessMarco EF Koenders, M E F Koenders et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1993

    Memory performance was studied in relation to anxiety and achievement motivation in a sample of 35 patients who were referred to a geriatric outpatient clinic for their complaints of memory dysfunction. State-anxiety appeared not to be associated with memory performance or the severity of dementia. Trait-anxiety and achievement motivation were associated positively with memory performance and negatively with the severity of dementia. The evaluati…

  • Reliability and validity of the Perinatal Grief Scale for women who experienced late pregnancy loss

    Open AccessJ A M Hunfeld, J W Wladimiroff et al.ARTICLEBritish Journal of Medical…1993Cited by: 4

    The psychometric qualities of the Perinatal Grief Scale (PGS) were evaluated in a sample of 46 Dutch women in late pregnancy (≥24 weeks), who had been informed of the diagnosis ‘lethal or severe fetal malformation’. The validity was assessed by comparing it to the Impact of Event Scale and to a clinical diagnosis of psychological instability. The PGS appeared to be internally consistent and particularly strongly related to psychological instabili…

  • Value of the Mini-Mental State Examination and Informants' Data for the Detection of Dementia in Geriatric Outpatients

    The Dutch version of the Mini-Mental State Examination was administered to 138 elderly patients who were referred to a geriatric outpatient clinic for a variety of reasons. An optimal cut-off point of 24/25 was found for the detection of dementia. At this cut-off point, the Mini-Mental State Examination was 87.6% sensitive and 81.6% specific in detecting dementia. The discriminative validity was influenced by education and by the presence of psyc…

  • Positive Associations between Anticipatory Anxiety and Needle Pain for Subjective but Not for Physiological Measures of Anxiety

    Open AccessJ Passchier, R Verheij et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1992

    So far, the association between anxiety and pain has not been studied with measures tapping a physiological dimension of anxiety. Therefore, during a blood extraction procedure, we recorded subjective anxiety, electrodermal activity, heart rate, and intensity of pain. Subjects were 15 patients with panic disorder and 24 healthy subjects. Positive associations between subjective anxiety and pain were found in each group. The physiological activity…

    Consultations, motives, experience, and attitudes were explored in 201 men with alopecia androgenetica who had two years before shown interest in hair treatment using minoxidil. During the past two years, one-third consulted a professional on account of hair loss. General practitioners were consulted by 60% and other professionals by about 75%. The main motive for the consultation was hair treatment, which was offered to half of the consulting su…

  • Is Anger Elicited by the Defense Mechanism Inventory? An Exploratory Study

    Open AccessJ Passchier, B Bonke et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1987

    The present study verified whether the Defense Mechanism Inventory mainly involves aggressive ego threats. A shortened Dutch version of the inventory representing the five content areas from the original version was administered to 105 medical students, and questions concerning negative emotions aroused were asked. Anger and pain were significantly more often reported than fear, distress, and disgust, which supported the hypothesis
