  • Evaluating a treatment selection approach for online single‐session interventions for adolescent depression

    Open AccessIsaac Ahuvia, Michael C Mullarkey et al.ARTICLEJournal of Child Psychology and…2023

    BACKGROUND: The question 'what works for whom' is essential to mental health research, as matching individuals to the treatment best suited to their needs has the potential to maximize the effectiveness of existing approaches. Digitally administered single-session interventions (SSIs) are effective means of reducing depressive symptoms in adolescence, with potential for rapid, large-scale implementation. However, little is known about which SSIs …

    Open AccessJessica L Schleider, Michael C Mullarkey et al.ARTICLENature Human Behaviour2021Cited by: 5References: 49

    The COVID-19 pandemic has potentially increased the risk for adolescent depression. Even pre-pandemic, <50% of youth with depression accessed care, highlighting needs for accessible interventions. Accordingly, this randomized controlled trial (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04634903 ) tested online single-session interventions (SSIs) during COVID-19 in adolescents with elevated depression symptoms (N = 2,452, ages 13-16). Adolescents from all 50 US state…

  • Getting Fewer “Likes” Than Others on Social Media Elicits Emotional Distress Among Victimized Adolescents

    Open AccessHae Yeon Lee, Jeremy P Jamieson et al.ARTICLEChild Development2020

    Three studies examined the effects of receiving fewer signs of positive feedback than others on social media. In Study 1, adolescents (N = 613, Mage = 14.3 years) who were randomly assigned to receive few (vs. many) likes during a standardized social media interaction felt more strongly rejected, and reported more negative affect and more negative thoughts about themselves. In Study 2 (N = 145), negative responses to receiving fewer likes were as…

  • Using Network Analysis to Identify Central Symptoms of Adolescent Depression

    Michael C Mullarkey, Igor Marchetti et al.ARTICLEJournal of Clinical Child &…2019

    Experiencing depression symptoms, even at mild to moderate levels, is associated with maladaptive outcomes for adolescents. We used network analysis to evaluate which symptoms (and associations between symptoms) are most central to adolescent depression. Participants were part of a large, diverse community sample (N = 1,409) of adolescents between 13 and 19 years of age. Network analysis was used to identify the most central symptoms (nodes) and …

  • Meta-Analysis of Gender Differences in Self-Compassion

    Lisa M Yarnell, Rose E Stafford et al.ARTICLESelf and Identity2015

    While research suggests strong associations of self-compassion with mental health and well-being, gender norms may hinder the development of self-compassion by women on one hand, and men on the other. This study represents one of the first systematic analyses of potential gender differences in self-compassion using meta-analytic techniques, including whether such gender differences are moderated by age or ethnic minority status. Fixed-effects mod…
