Race Matters in Assessment of Familial Criticism
Introduction: Two findings in the Expressed Emotion (EE) literature fail to hold for Black psychiatric patients: EE (predominantly criticism) fails to predict treatment outcome, and measures of EE fail to correlate with patients' perceptions of relatives' criticism. To understand these findings, we tested whether non-Black coders of observable criticism (a) rate Black relatives higher in criticism than White relatives, or (b) are generally less a…
Understanding Gender Differences in Anxiety: The Mediating Effects of Instrumentality and Mastery
Developing a better understanding of modifiable psychological factors that account for gender differences in anxiety may provide insight into interventions that can be used to target these risk processes. The authors developed a mediational model to examine the degree to which gender differences in anxiety are explained by instrumentality and mastery while controlling for the influence of environmental stress and social desirability. Undergraduat…
Empirically Supported Treatments in Rural Community Mental Health Centers: A Preliminary Report on Current Utilization and Attitudes Toward Adoption
Exploring Sex Differences in Worry with A Cognitive Vulnerability Model
A multivariate model was developed to examine the relative contributions of mastery, stress, interpretive bias, and coping to sex differences in worry. Rumination was incorporated as a second outcome variable to test the specificity of these associations. Participants included two samples of undergraduates totaling 302 men and 379 women. A path analysis of the full sample demonstrated good overall fit and revealed that low mastery, high stress, a…
Pronouns in Marital Interaction: What Do “You” and “I” Say About Marital Health?
Recent studies in social psychology have found that the frequency of certain words in people's speech and writing is related to psychological aspects of their personal health. We investigated whether counts of “self” and “other” pronouns used by 59 couples engaged in a problem-solving discussion were related to indices of marital health. One spouse in each couple had a diagnosis of obsessive-compulsive disorder or panic disorder with agoraphobia;…
Gender Differences in the Construct Validity of the Silencing the Self Scale
Gender differences in the construct validity of Jack's (1991) Silencing the Self Scale (STSS) were assessed using 187 female and 169 male undergraduates. Results of exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses revealed gender differences in the scale's latent structure and at best provided only limited support for the validity of the scale's four subscales for women. Among men, the studies exposed a weakness in the scale's construct validity and …
Identification of Empirically Supported Counseling Psychology Interventions: Commentary
Division 17’s Special Task Group’s Principles of Empirically Supported Interventions in Counseling Psychology and their application are considered in the context of other work on empirically supported treatments, most notably that of Division 12’s Task Force on Promotion and Dissemination of Psychological Procedures. Although there are many areas of overlap, it is concluded that Division 17’s group has, in some respects, taken unique positions co…
Empirically Supported Psychological Interventions: Controversies and Evidence
Efforts to increase the practice of evidence-based psychotherapy in the United States have led to the formation of task forces to define, identify, and disseminate information about empirically supported psychological interventions. The work of several such task forces and other groups reviewing empirically supported treatments (ESTs) in the United States, United Kingdom, and elsewhere is summarized here, along with the lists of treatments that h…
Predicting Dysphoria and Relationship Adjustment: Gender Differences in Their Longitudinal Relationship
Defining empirically supported therapies.
A scheme is proposed for determining when a psychological treatment for a specific problem or disorder may be considered to be established in efficacy or to be possibly efficacious.The importance of independent replication before a treatment is established in efficacy is emphasized, and a number of factors are elaborated that should be weighed in evaluating whether studies supporting a treatment's efficacy are sound.It is suggested that, in evalu…
Validity of the Perceived Criticism Measure in an Undergraduate Sample
The concurrent and predictive validity of the Perceived Criticism Measure's Criticism and Upset subscales was assessed for undergraduates, 21 men and 98 women. Participants were asked to identify five people important to them at present (typically these were parents as well as peers) and, for each, to rate how critical that person was as well as how upsetting they found that criticism to be. Scores on Upset exhibited convergent validity with anot…
Self‐reported sexual anxiety and arousal: The expanded sexual arousability inventory
This study was designed to (a) provide initial validity data on the Expanded Sexual Arousability Inventory developed by E. F. Hoon (1978) and (b) to investigate the relationship of self‐reported sexual arousability to anxiety. Subjects were 252 female undergraduates and 90 female volunteers from the community who completed inventories concerning their sexual responsiveness. The arousal and anxiety scales were found to be uncorrelated, whereas a t…
