The Impact of Shame, Humiliation and Pride on Revenge Desire and Behavior in Victims of Crime: A Pilot Experimental Study
108). Participants were betrayed in a prisoner's dilemma game and randomly assigned to a shame/humiliation, pride, or control condition. They then reported revenge desire and could administer noise-blasts as revenge. Humiliation significantly predicted both revenge desire and acts; shame approached significance for revenge desire, and pride was unrelated. These findings suggest that negative self-conscious emotions, particularly humiliation, can …
The risk and resilience factors associated with secondary traumatic stress in school personnel: A scoping review
BACKGROUND: School personnel bear the emotional burden of students' trauma. Secondary traumatic stress (STS), resulting from indirect trauma exposure, impacts well-being and job performance through PTSD-like symptoms, making addressing STS in schools a critical priority. AIMS: This scoping review mapped and synthesized risk and resilience factors associated with STS in school staff and tabulated the instruments used to assess STS in this populati…
Impact of Covid-19 Lockdown on Intimate Partner Violence Prevalence Amongst Pregnant Women in Northern Ireland
Purpose Pregnancy has been posited as a period of unique vulnerability for Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) victimisation. This brief report examined the impact of COVID-19 lockdown on IPV victimisation during pregnancy by measuring post implementation changes in rates, with comparisons to the same period in non-lockdown years. Methods Secondary data analysis of the Northern Ireland Maternity System (NIMATS) database containing pregnancy presentat…
Evaluation of the psychometric properties of trauma history measures: Assessment of reliability and validity
Overall, the TLEQ emerged as the most robust legacy measure of trauma history. Future studies should assess its psychometrics in comparison with the new generation of measures (i.e., Life Events Checklist, International Trauma Exposure Measure) to further the development of assessment tools in this area.

Trauma and identity predictors of ICD-11 PTSD and complex PTSD in a trauma-exposed Colombian sample
Background: The 11th International Classification of Diseases introduces the diagnosis of Complex PTSD (CPTSD); characterized by traditional PTSD symptomology plus Disturbances in Self Organisation. Part of this construct involves feeling socially disconnected from others, suggesting that aspects of group and individual identity may be associated with this disorder. Aims: The current study seeks to contribute to better understanding the associati…
Empirically Derived Patterns of Posttraumatic Stress and Growth: A Systematic Review
The relationship between posttraumatic stress (PTS) and posttraumatic growth (PTG) has been extensively studied; however, the nature of the relationship remains unclear. Inconsistencies in the literature could be, in part, due to the use of variable level approaches. Person centered methods may further our understanding of this relationship, as they enable the identification of clinically meaningful subgroups based on PTS/PTG scores. This review …
Shame, personality orientation, and risk in intimacy: Direct and estimated indirect pathways
Childhood Physical and Sexual Abuse as a Predictor of Reoffending: A Systematic Review
Experiences of childhood trauma such as physical and sexual abuse are common among offender populations, and a trauma history is related to increases in the risk of criminal conduct. Previous reviews on the link between childhood trauma and reoffending are limited in scope as they only investigate adolescent populations. The aim of the current systematic review was to explore the association between childhood physical and sexual abuse and its pre…
Motor problems in children with severe emotional and behavioural difficulties
BACKGROUND: There is growing evidence that children with motor difficulties are at risk of psychosocial problems and vice versa. However, it is not clear how far different aspects of motor function are predictive of psychosocial well-being in the context of other powerful factors, such as family upset, that are known to affect psychosocial development. AIMS: To investigate the role of basic motor skills and primary reflex persistence in young chi…
Exploring the relationship between alienation appraisals, trauma, posttraumatic stress, and depression
Alienation was a salient predictor of posttraumatic distress. Clinical assessment of alienation appraisals is recommended to inform psychological interventions for trauma survivors. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
Alienation Appraisals Mediate the Relationships between Childhood Trauma and Multiple Markers of Posttraumatic Stress
Rates of posttraumatic stress are elevated in individuals who have experienced childhood and/or cumulative trauma, and trauma appraisals have been suggested as a possible mediator of this effect. This study tested the proposed mediating role of trauma appraisals between both childhood and cumulative trauma, and two markers of trauma-related distress; posttraumatic stress and depression. Mediation models were developed and tested with data collect…
Testing the psychometric properties of Kidscreen-27 with Irish children of low socio-economic status
Future research should apply the 7-factor model with children of low socio-economic status. Such efforts would help monitor the health status of the population

Impact of average household income and damage exposure on post-earthquake distress and functioning: A community study following the February 2011 Christchurch earthquake
Post-traumatic stress, depression and anxiety symptoms are common outcomes following earthquakes, and may persist for months and years. This study systematically examined the impact of neighbourhood damage exposure and average household income on psychological distress and functioning in 600 residents of Christchurch, New Zealand, 4-6 months after the fatal February, 2011 earthquake. Participants were from highly affected and relatively unaffecte…
