Not the exercise type? Personality traits and anxiety sensitivity as predictors of objectively measured physical activity and sedentary time
Personality traits have been investigated as predictors of sedentary behavior, while both personality traits and anxiety sensitivity have been investigated as predictors of physical activity; however, few studies employed objective measurement of these behaviors. The current study recruited 64 young adults who completed the Anxiety Sensitivity Index-3 and NEO-Personality Inventory-3, then wore accelerometers for 1 week. Results revealed that agre…
Attending to Timely Contingencies: Promoting Physical Activity Uptake Among Adults with Serious Mental Illness with an Exercise-For-Mood vs. an Exercise-For-Fitness Prescription
Despite evidence for both physical and mental health benefits achieved through regular exercise, most Americans fail to meet minimum recommendations. Altering the behavioral contingency from a focus on long-term health benefits to immediate mood benefits represents a novel method for exercise promotion. The current study examined a single-session exercise-for-mood intervention against two time-matched comparison conditions in 152 patients with se…

The Development of a Novel Measure to Assess Motives for Compensatory Eating in Response to Exercise: The Cemq
Compensatory eating in response to exercise may be an obstacle to achieving weight-loss and fitness goals. In this study we develop and conduct a preliminary examination of the psychometric properties of the Compensatory Eating Motives Questionnaire (CEMQ), a self-report questionnaire of motives for compensatory eating. Development and testing of the CEMQ was conducted in two student samples. Of respondents, 75% reported engaging in compensatory …
A Randomized, Controlled Trial of the Efficacy of an Interoceptive Exposure-Based CBT for Treatment-Refractory Outpatients with Opioid Dependence
Many patients diagnosed with opioid dependence do not adequately respond to pharmacologic, psychosocial, or combination treatment, highlighting the importance of novel treatment strategies for this population. The current study examined the efficacy of a novel behavioral treatment focusing on internal cues for drug use (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Interoceptive Cues; CBT-IC) relative to an active comparison condition, Individual Drug Counsel…

Supportive-expressive psychodynamic therapy for cocaine dependence: A closer look
Using data from the National Institute on Drug Abuse Collaborative Cocaine Treatment Study, this article focuses on the outcomes of patients who received supportive-expressive (SE) psychodynamically-oriented psychotherapy (plus group drug counseling; GDC). Short-term SE for cocaine dependent individuals, while not the most efficacious treatment examined in the study (individual drug counseling [IDC] plus GDC was), produced large improvements in c…
