Meta‐Analysis of the Effects of Peer‐Administered Psychosocial Interventions on Symptoms of Depression
Many community mental health centers have implemented peer treatment models that employ recovered former clients as cost‐efficient adjunct providers. The effectiveness of these and other peer‐administered interventions (PAIs) for treating depression symptoms has not been well‐established. The current study is a meta‐analysis of PAIs’ effects on depression symptoms. Twenty‐three eligible studies were identified. Study characteristics were coded by…
Viewing Resistance as Ambivalence
Resistance to change is a problem that has long evaded easy solutions. In this article, the authors suggest the value of understanding and working with some forms of resistance as ambivalence.

Coping Strategies and Emotional Reactions to Separation and Divorce in Anglo, Chicana, and Mexicana Women

One of the strongest findings related to the relatively high distress of the Chicana group com…

Social Anxiety and Selective Memory for Affective Information About the Self
High and low socially anxious women were given identical feedback about their personality traits after a brief social interaction with a male confederate. The male confederate was trained to respond positively (success) to half of the subjects in each group during the interaction and negatively (failure) to the other half. Results of a subsequent recognition memory test for the feedback supported one of the main hypotheses and indicated that high…
Social Anxiety and Self-Evaluation of Interpersonal Performance
High and low socially anxious men participated in two brief conversations with female confederates. Each subject rated his own and other conversations on social skill, anxiety, and female's response. Judges made identical ratings. It was hypothesized that, compared with low-anxious subjects, the high-anxious subjects would underestimate positive aspects of their performance (social skill and favorability of female response) and overestimate negat…
