Immune Benefits of Psychosocial Intervention for Atopic Dermatitis in Hong Kong Children
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of an Integrative Body–Mind–Spirit (IBMS) group intervention in modulating inflammatory cytokine balance and improving clinical outcomes in children with atopic dermatitis. Methods: In a randomized, waitlist-controlled trial conducted in Hong Kong, 141 parent–child dyads were assigned to either the IBMS intervention ( n = 71) or a waitlist control ( n = 70). The IBMS intervention consisted of 6 weekly 3-hour grou…

Do Reincarnation Beliefs Protect Older Adult Chinese Buddhists Against Personal Death Anxiety
The aim of this exploratory survey study was to develop and validate a Buddhist reincarnation beliefs scale and explore the relation between Buddhist reincarnation beliefs and personal death anxiety in 141 older adult Hong Kong Chinese Buddhists. Buddhist reincarnation beliefs were unrelated to personal death anxiety. This suggests that not all religious afterlife beliefs have death anxiety buffering power as proposed by Terror Management Theory,…
Target's face loss, motivations, and forgiveness following relational transgression
We proposed that, following a transgression, as a victim's perceived face loss increased, the victim would show (i) less forgiveness towards the perpetrator; (ii) increased motivation to retaliate; and (iii) reduced desire to maintain the damaged relationship. Moreover, an interdependent self-construal was hypothesized to strengthen these associations. Results from Hong Kong Chinese and American university students revealed that greater face loss…
Mortality Anxiety as a Function of Intrinsic Religiosity and Perceived Purpose in Life
Fear of dying and death may be universal, but individuals differ in their emotional reactions to dying and death. The present study included a sample of 133 Chinese university students who were Christians. The authors tested a mediation model which posited that intrinsic religiosity, but not extrinsic religiosity, lowered anxiety toward the dying and death of self and someone close through fostering perceived purpose in life. Structural Equation …
General Beliefs about the World as Defensive Mechanisms against Death Anxiety
Death ideation and death anxiety represent the cognitive and affective dimensions of death attitudes, respectively. General beliefs about the world are proposed to be useful defensive mechanisms protecting persons against the death anxiety provoked by death ideation. SEM is employed to test the proposed mediation model, using a sample of 133 Hong Kong Chinese university students. Results showed that death ideation was significantly and inversely …
