    This study explores the mortality and mental health correlates of the iconic Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists’ Doomsday Clock, using data published by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the University of Washington’s Global Burden of Disease Collaborative Network.

  • Predictors of involuntary and voluntary emotional episodic memories of virtual reality scenarios in Veterans with and without PTSD

    Loretta S Malta, Cezar Giosan et al.ARTICLEMemory2020

    This study investigated predictors of involuntary and voluntary memories of stressful virtual reality scenarios. Thirty-two veterans of the two Persian Gulf Wars completed verbal memory tests and diagnostic assessments. They were randomly assigned to a Recounting (16) or a Suppression (16) condition. After immersion in the VR scenarios, the Recounting group described the scenarios and the Suppression group suppressed thoughts of the scenarios. On…

  • Duties toward Patients with Psychiatric Illness

    Open AccessRachel Conrad, Rachel C Conrad et al.ARTICLEThe Hastings Center Report2020

    Patients with psychiatric illness feel the brunt of the intersection of many of our society's and our health care system's disparities, and the vulnerability of this population during the Covid‐19 pandemic cannot be overstated.

Many patients with severe and persistent mental illness face additional barriers, including poverty, marginal …

  • Major Depressive Disorder in Medical Illness: A Review of Assessment, Prevalence, and Treatment Options

    Robyn P Thom, Robyn Thom et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2019

    Major depression, as well as other depressive disorders, is commonly comorbid with other medical illnesses, particularly chronic and systemic medical illnesses. The co-occurrence of the disorders is so common that it challenges our notions of the meaning of comorbidity and our desire to neatly separate psychiatric and medical illnesses. The overlap between symptoms of physical illness and the neurovegetative symptoms of major depression and the i…

    Nomi C Levy‐Carrick, Nomi C Levy-Carrick et al.ARTICLEFamily & Community Health2019

    Trauma-informed care has emerged as an important model to address the pervasiveness of traumatic experiences across the life cycle and their association with significant adverse medical and psychiatric consequences. To achieve health equity, in which all people have the opportunity for health, it is crucial for physicians to become comfortable with a neurobiopsychosocial understanding of trauma and how to provide optimal trauma-informed care. Giv…

  • Self-awareness, self-regulation, and self-transcendence (S-ART): A framework for understanding the neurobiological mechanisms of mindfulness

    Open AccessDavid R Vago, David Silbersweig et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Human Neuroscience2012

    Mindfulness-as a state, trait, process, type of meditation, and intervention has proven to be beneficial across a diverse group of psychological disorders as well as for general stress reduction. Yet, there remains a lack of clarity in the operationalization of this construct, and underlying mechanisms. Here, we provide an integrative theoretical framework and systems-based neurobiological model that explains the mechanisms by which mindfulness r…

    Current progress in the cognitive neurosciences is highly relevant to the development of psychoanalytic theory and practice. Neuroscience is today becoming mature enough to provide empirical biological approaches for the investigation of psychoanalytic models and observations. The current state of functional neuroimaging techniques is reviewed, selected paradigms and findings relevant to psychotherapy research are presented, and ways to pursue th…
