Do potentially traumatic events experienced by people in one's social circle affect one's own mental health and emotional support? Findings from a prospective population-based study
BACKGROUND: Adults may have individuals in their social circle who were recently exposed to potentially traumatic events (PTEs). The present study aims to examine if these adults are at increased risk for mental health problems and reduced emotional support. METHODS: Data was extracted from annual surveys of the prospective VICTIMS-study (2018-2025), conducted with the Dutch population-based LISS panel. We selected adult respondents who participa…
Security of Attachment to Mother vs Father is Differently Associated With Emotion-Reading Ability and Trait Emotional Intelligence in Preadolescents
This study aimed at extending the knowledge on the relationship between attachment and emotional intelligence (EI) in preadolescents by considering differences in the figure of attachment (mother/father) and in the child's gender. Participants were 267 preadolescents (52.8% girls) aged 8 to 13 ( M = 10.52, SD = 1.25), who filled in measures of attachment anxiety and avoidance in relation to each parent; trait EI; and emotion-reading ability (ERA)…
Mediators of Outcome in Trauma-Focused Psychotherapy with Youth
This article aimed to provide a systematic narrative synthesis of existing studies on the mediators of change in psychotherapy with adolescents (10–19 years) and transition age youth (TAY) (20–29 years) who have experienced trauma-related symptoms or posttraumatic disorder. Additionally, we were interested in identifying psychotherapy-, trauma type-, and clients’ age- and gender-specific mediators of treatment outcome. Following the preferred rep…
The Influence of the Big Five Personality Factors on Mental Health Before and During the Covid-19 Pandemic
The Big Five personality factors (PF) are considered to be predictive of mental health problems, but it is unclear if these factors equally contributed to mental health problems during the COVID-19 pandemic compared to before the pandemic. This prospective study aimed to fill this knowledge gap. For this purpose data was extracted from the population-based LISS-panel. We included adult respondents (N males = 1,838, N females = 1892) who participa…
To what extent do post-traumatic mental health and other problems reflect pre-existing problems? Findings from the prospective comparative population-based Victims-study
Background: Findings from prospective studies question the assumption that mental health problems observed in traumatized adults mainly reflect the effects of potentially traumatic events. Aims: Aim of the present comparative prospective study is to clarify the extent to which victims of potentially traumatic events with mental health, social, financial, and/or legal problems, already suffered from such problems before these events. Method: Data …

Characterizing veterans' dreams applying the Zurich dream process coding system
The experience of transplantation as reflected in dream life
Although it is well known that a lung transplant enhances the recipient's quality of life, our knowledge of how it is processed mentally is limited. In this study, interviews were conducted with a lung-transplant patient two weeks, three months, and six months after surgery so as to investigate the relevant unconscious processing mechanisms. A dream reported in the first interview was analysed in accordance withapplying the Zurich Dream Process C…
Association of posttraumatic nightmares and psychopathology in a military sample
The replicativeness of nightmares appears to be a key variable for understanding the relationship between posttraumatic nightmares and PTSD, whereas nightmare frequency and distress appear to be more aptly defined as generic markers of mental health. (PsycINFO Database Record
Association of Trait Resilience With Peritraumatic and Posttraumatic Stress in Patients With Myocardial Infarction
OBJECTIVE: Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a life-threatening condition, leading to immediate fear and distress in many patients. Approximately 18% of patients develop posttraumatic stress disorder in the aftermath of MI. Trait resilience has shown to be a protective factor for the development of posttraumatic stress disorder. However, whether this buffering effect has already an impact on peritraumatic distress and applies to patients with M…

Dream recall frequency, attitude towards dreams and openness to experience
The question whether personality dimensions explain the interindividual differences in dream recall frequency has often been investigated by dream researchers. The present findings confirm previous research which has shown that traits such as openness-to-experience and thin boundaries correlate substantially with dream recall frequency. However, correlation coefficients are small and are much larger if attitude towards dreams or a scale measuring…
