Evidence Based Treatments for Trauma-Related Psychological Disorders: A Practical Guide for Clinicians
Experimental Induction of Emotional and Sexual Intimacy: Exploring the Validity of the German Fast Friends Procedure in Individuals with and without Childhood Maltreatment
Effect of Early Psychological Counseling for the Prevention of Posttraumatic Stress Induced by Acute Coronary Syndrome at Long-Term Follow-Up
No benefits were found for trauma-focused counseling after 12 months when compared with an active control intervention. PTSD prevalence in the present study was low highlighting a potential beneficial effect of both interventions. Further studies are needed to determine the most accurate approach of counseling
Evidence Based Treatments for Trauma-Related Psychological Disorders: A Practical Guide for Clinicians
An exploratory study of embitterment in traumatized refugees
The results provide first insights into embitterment and associated factors in refugee populations. Furthermore, they highlight the significance of moral transgressions and low levels of self-efficacy emerging from displacement and traumatic experiences for the development of mental health problems in a clinical sample of refugees. The findings have implications for future research, policy development and clinical practice
Emotion network density in burnout
The strength of the temporal interplay of negative emotions is associated with burnout, highlighting the importance of emotions and emotional exhaustion in reaction to occupational-related distress in health care workers. Moreover, our findings align with previous investigations of emotion network density and impaired psychological functioning, demonstrating the utility of conceptualizing the dynamics of emotions as a network
Course, Moderators, and Predictors of Acute Coronary Syndrome-Induced Post-traumatic Stress: A Secondary Analysis From the Myocardial Infarction-Stress Prevention Intervention Randomized Controlled Tr…
Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) induce post-traumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) in one out of eight patients. Effects of preventive interventions, the course and potential moderators of ACS-induced PTSS are vastly understudied. This study explored whether a preventive behavioral intervention leads to a decrease in myocardial infarction (MI)-induced PTSS between two follow-up assessments. Sociodemographic, clinical and psychological factors were addit…
Problems after flight: Understanding and comparing Syrians’ perspectives in the Middle East and Europe
This study highlights the impact of local contextual factors on wellbeing. The findings emphasise that planning preventative procedures and mental health care services for SRAs need to consider local challenges affecting the population in specific countries
Prolonged Grief Disorder Among Refugees in Psychological Treatment—Association With Self-Efficacy and Emotion Regulation
These findings suggest that emotion regulation and perceived self-efficacy are associated with PGD in refugees in psychological treatment and are thus potential targets for treatment interventions
Psychiatric Disorders in Refugees and Internally Displaced Persons After Forced Displacement: A Systematic Review
A Longitudinal Investigation of Moral Injury Appraisals Amongst Treatment-Seeking Refugees
There is currently an unprecedented number of forcibly displaced people worldwide. Understanding psychological mechanisms that contribute to the mental health of refugees and asylum-seekers is important for informing the development of effective interventions for these populations. Moral injury appraisals represent an important potential cognitive mechanism that may contribute to psychological symptoms following exposure to persecution, war, and …
Changes in Post-migration Living Difficulties Predict Treatment Outcome in Traumatized Refugees
Background: Refugee mental health is affected by traumatic stressors as well as post-migration living difficulties (PMLD). However, their interaction and causal pathways are unclear, and so far, no distinct treatment recommendations regarding exile-related stressors exist. Methods: In a 3-year follow-up study, PMLD and symptoms of post-traumatic stress (PTS), depression and anxiety were examined in a clinical sample of severely traumatized refuge…
Emotion Transfer, Emotion Regulation, and Empathy-Related Processes in Physician-Patient Interactions and Their Association With Physician Well-Being: A Theoretical Model
Physicians experience many emotionally challenging situations in their professional lives, influencing their emotional state through emotion contagion or social appraisal processes. Successful emotion regulation is crucial to sustain health, enable well-being, foster resilience, and prevent burnout or compassion fatigue. Despite the alarmingly high rate of stress-related disorders in physicians, affecting not only physician well-being, but also o…
Mental health assessments in refugees and asylum seekers: Evaluation of a tablet-assisted screening software
MAPSS may be a cost-effective, flexible and valid alternative to interpreter-based psychometric screening and assessment
How fat will it make me? Estimation of weight gain in anorexia nervosa
Psychotherapeutic care for sexually-victimized children – Do service providers meet the need? Multilevel analysis
Challenging future, challenging past: The relationship of social integration and psychological impairment in traumatized refugees
BACKGROUND: Refugees have been shown to present high prevalence rates of trauma-related mental disorders. Despite their psychological impairment, they are expected to meet high functional requirements in terms of social integration into, and financial independence from, the host society. METHODS: This cross-sectional study examined the relationship of mental health problems, post-migration living difficulties (PMLD), and social integration in a s…
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…
Testing the “Sexually Abused-Abuser Hypothesis” in Adolescents: A Population-Based Study
Adolescent Perspectives on Social Support Received in the Aftermath of Sexual Abuse: A Qualitative Study
Post-disaster psychosocial services across Europe: The TENTS project
Finger Length Ratio (2D: (4D) in Adults with Gender Identity Disorder
Altered Blood Coagulation in Patients With Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
Objective: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has been associated with an increased cardiovascular risk, though the pathophysiologic mechanisms involved are elusive. A hypercoagulable state before occurrence of coronary thrombosis contributes to atherosclerosis development. We investigated whether PTSD would be associated with increased coagulation activity. Methods: We measured resting plasma levels of clotting factor VII activity (FVII:C), FV…
Changing Times: A Longitudinal Analysis of International Firearm Suicide Data
We investigated changes in the proportion of firearm suicides in Western countries since the 1980s and the relation of these changes to the change in the proportion of households owning firearms. Several countries had an obvious decline in firearm suicides: Norway, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Multilevel modeling of longitudinal data confirmed the effect of the proportion of households owning firearms. Legislation and regul…
The Neural Basis of Altruistic Punishment
Many people voluntarily incur costs to punish violations of social norms. Evolutionary models and empirical evidence indicate that such altruistic punishment has been a decisive force in the evolution of human cooperation. We used H 2 15 O positron emission tomography to examine the neural basis for altruistic punishment of defectors in an economic exchange. Subjects could punish defection either symbolically or effectively. Symbolic punishment d…
