Stealing-related craving and outcome expectancy in kleptomania: An exploratory study using implicit measures
Kleptomania, observed among individuals who repeatedly engage in theft, differs from ordinary theft. Its primary motivation is not the acquisition of goods or resale profits but the relief of tension or the pleasure derived from the stealing act itself. Kleptomania is regarded as a form of addiction, for which psychological interventions are considered effective. However, empirical examination of craving and outcome expectancy (factors assumed to…
The Development of a Japanese Version of the State Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire
This series of studies developed the Japanese version of the State Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire (SCFQ‐J) and examined its psychometric properties. In Study 1, 411 participants completed the questionnaire. Confirmatory factor analyses supported a one‐factor model for the SCFQ‐J. In Study 2, to examine the responsiveness of the SCFQ‐J to a brief defusion exercise, 40 Japanese participants were randomly assigned to either a cognitive defusion or c…
Classification of intrusive thought patterns based on differences in the mechanisms of occurrence and persistence
These findings suggest that intrusive thoughts cannot be fully explained solely by the degree of OCD tendencies, which could provide valuable insights into cognitive-behavioral support targeting the various psychological states associated with intrusive thoughts
Individuals with hikikomori and their families’ cognitive behavioral factors: A prospective study
Behavioral Repertoire of Families for Coping with Individuals with Hikikomori (Prolonged Social Withdrawal) in Japan1
This study aimed to examine the characteristics of families’ behavioral repertoires in hikikomori (prolonged social withdrawal) cases. We asked 243 parents of individuals with hikikomori ( hikikomori group) to complete the Family Behavioral Repertoire Scale for Coping With Hikikomori (FBS‐H), the Negative Evaluation of Hikikomori Scale, and a self‐efficacy measure of coping with problem behaviors of hikikomori in order to develop the FBS‐H and to…
Family Behavioral Repertoires and Family Interaction Influence the Adaptive Behaviors of Individuals With Hikikomori
Background: Family support is key in the initial stages of psychological support for individuals with hikikomori . However, it remains necessary to confirm the relationship between families' cognitive behavioral factors and the severity of hikikomori to understand ways of improving hikikomori. We examined the influences of family behavioral repertoires for coping with hikikomori and family interaction on the adaptive behaviors of individuals with…
Characteristics of Family Interaction of Individuals with Hikikomori (Prolonged Social Withdrawal) From the Viewpoint of Behavior Theory
The cognitive behavioral approach for families of individuals with hikikomori (IWH) places importance on assessing family interaction from a behavior theory. However, there is no gold standard method for the assessment of family interaction of IWH. Additionally, the characteristics of the family interactions of IWH have not been clarified. This study aims to (a) develop the Family Interaction Scale for Hikikomori (FIS‐H) using parent‐reported dat…
Altered Gamma-Band Activity as a Potential Biomarker for the Recurrence of Major Depressive Disorder
Background: The neurophysiological mechanisms of cognitive reactivity, the primary vulnerability factor of major depressive disorder (MDD) recurrence, remain unclear in individuals with recovered MDD (rMDD). Because gamma-band responses (GBRs) can be used to measure cognitive processing, they may also be useful for elucidating the mechanisms underlying cognitive reactivity. Identifying these mechanisms may permit the development of an index for p…
Translation and Initial Validation of the Japanese Version of the Self-Beliefs Related to Social Anxiety Scale
Cognitive models of social anxiety posit that there are several types of maladaptive beliefs responsible for persistent social anxiety. Although these beliefs are theoretically important, currently there is no validated measure of these beliefs in Japan. In the present study, we translated into Japanese a well-validated measure of these beliefs, the Self-Beliefs Related to Social Anxiety (SBSA) Scale. The psychometric properties of the scale were…
Assessing adaptive behaviors of individuals with hikikomori (prolonged social withdrawal): Development and psychometric evaluation of the parent-report scale
It is important to appropriately assess the adaptive behaviors of individuals with hikikomori (IWH) using parent reports. However, currently, there is no gold standard in the assessment of adaptive behaviors of IWH. This study aimed to: (1) develop the Adaptive Behaviors Scale for Hikikomori (ABS-H); (2) examine the factor structure of the ABS-H; and (3) examine the reliability and validity of ABS-H. A factor analysis and item response theory (IR…
Effect of prolonged stress on the adrenal hormones of individuals with irritable bowel syndrome
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of prolonged stress on the salivary adrenal hormones (cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone [DHEA], DHEA-sulfate [DHEA-S]) of individuals with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). METHODS: The participants were female college students, including 10 with IBS and 16 without IBS (control group), who were scheduled for a 2-week teaching practice at a kindergarten. Participants were asked to co…
Stress-induced cortisol is associated with generation of non-negative interpretations during cognitive reappraisal
BACKGROUND: Enhanced processing of emotional stimuli after stress exposure is reported to be associated with stress-induced cortisol. Because enhanced emotional information processing could make cognitive emotion regulation more difficult, it was hypothesized that stress-induced cortisol would be associated with non-negative interpretation generation associated with the cognitive reappraisal processes. METHODS: A total of 36 participants (Mean ag…
Coping orientation and psychological distress in healthcare professionals: The utility of appraising coping acceptability
The purpose of this study was to examine interaction effects of healthcare professionals' coping orientation (i.e., engagement versus disengagement) and appraisal of coping acceptability ( ACA ) on psychological distress, taking into account the individuals' job specificity and the psychological climate in their work environment. A cross‐sectional survey was conducted, and Japanese healthcare professionals ( N = 189; 117 female; mean age: 40.1 ± …
Effects of distraction on negative behaviors and salivary α-amylase under mildly stressful medical procedures for brief inpatient children
Inconsistent results have been reported on the effects of distraction on negative emotions during medical procedures in infants. These differing results may be attributable to the fact that the effects are apparent under a mildly stressful medical procedure. A total of 17 infants, 18 preschoolers, and 15 school-aged children who were hospitalized were administered, monitoring for vital signs, a mildly stressful medical procedure, by a nurse in a …
The effects of attention retraining on depressive mood and cortisol responses to depression‐related stimuli 1
Although it has been reported that attentional bias at an early stage is found in depression, no study has investigated the effects of modification of attentional bias at an early stage on depressive mood and cortisol response to a stressor. Therefore, this study tested the hypotheses that the modification of attentional bias at an early stage would reduce depressive mood and cortisol response. Fifty‐three participants were allocated alternately …
Effect of day-to-day variations in adrenal cortex hormone levels on abdominal symptoms
INTRODUCTION: The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis is known to be related to abdominal symptoms, and the relationship between abdominal pain and cortisol secretory patterns has been previously investigated using a cross-sectional approach. Here, we investigated the effect of day-to-day variations in salivary cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate levels on abdominal symptoms in healthy individuals. METHODS: Eleven college students (4 male…
