The Paradox of Acceptance: A Longitudinal Study on Acceptance, Depression, and the Moderating Role of Anger Suppression Within an ACT Framework
OBJECTIVES: This longitudinal study examined the associations between acceptance of reality and depressive symptoms, in light of inconsistent findings in prior research. Existing studies-mostly cross-sectional-have reported negative, positive, or nonsignificant correlations, leaving the role of acceptance in depression unclear. Despite its prominence in third-wave cognitive-behavioral therapies (Hofmann and Asmundson 2008) such as Acceptance and …

1440 narratives) with three measurements within a year showed that at the between-person level the use of negative-valenced words was strongly associated with the increase in anxiety and depression symptoms over time while the use of positive-valenced words was slightly associated with the decrease in anxiety and depression symptom. These effects were not supported for within-person level (i.e. changes in word usage). No significant differences w…
Exploring the emotional and thematic matrix of dreams during war: The role of anxiety and depression
Dreams serve as a psychological space where the human mind grapples with burdensome issues, and war undoubtedly falls into that category. Inspired by Charlotte Beradt’s work on analyzing dreams during the Third Reich, we collected dreams from a sample of Polish individuals (N = 90) during the outbreak of war in March 2022. Our objective was to identify the most intense emotions conveyed through these dreams and investigate differences in both emo…
What do females really dream of? An individual-differences perspective on determining how narrative identity affects types of life projects and the ways of telling them
This article presents the findings of a study on life projects (LPs) created by adult females. It aims to show the specifics of future plans and of ideas on aspects of narrative identity in order to extend the existing literature. The study revealed the broad spectrum of LPs, with the most common categories related to study and work, regardless of the narrative identity incorporated into the study. However, separately taken, motives of agency and…
Leaving without a word: Ghosting and the Dark Triad traits
Researchers have extensively explored the early and middle stages of romantic and sexual relationships for those high on the Dark Triad traits (i.e., psychopathy, Machiavellianism, and narcissism) but they have generally missed the termination stage of relationships. In this study we examined (N = 341) the role these traits play in one termination strategy, ghosting. Ghosting is when a person discontinues a relationship through silence; it is con…
Defense Mechanisms and Borderline Personality Organization Among Covid-19 Believers and Non-believers During Complete Lock-Down
The aim of the current study was to investigate whether a specific social perception of the pandemic-believing or not in COVID-19-predicts borderline personality organizations and whether this relationship is mediated by more primitive maladaptive mechanisms-splitting, denial, and dissociation. The online study included 720 organization aged 25-45. Participants were diverse in terms of place of residence, being in a relationship, and education le…
