Strengthening the healthy adult mode
To study the feasibility, acceptability and effectiveness of the first treatment protocol solely focussing on strengthening adaptive schema modes: “Schema Therapy and the Healthy Adult” (ST-HA) during final-stage Schema therapy in adult outpatients with personality disorders. A single-case experimental design (n = 10) with multiple measures was used. For each participant, a no-treatment randomised baseline period was compared with treatment and f…
Exploring the complexity of the self
The self plays a paramount role in narcissism. We therefore examined the relationships between the positive and negative components of self-esteem (i.e., self-worth vs. self-deprecation) and self-compassion (i.e., ‘true’ self-compassion vs. self-criticism), and their associations with the subtypes of grandiose and vulnerable narcissism. Hundred-twenty non-clinical participants were surveyed using the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, the Self-Compassi…
Showing True Colours
Traditionally, narcissistic characteristics are considered relatively stable, although clinical accounts and recent research show that additional narcissistic states are variable and fluctuate in actuality. Narcissism research tends to focus on cross-sectional, group-based, trait approaches. Momentary ecological assessments allow one to discover individuals' true colors by observing narcissistic experiences while they unfold in real-time and real…
Daily dynamics of negative affect
More instability (MSSD) and variability (SD) of negative affect (NA) have been related to current and future depressive symptoms. We investigated whether NA instability and variability were predictive of the rate of symptom improvement during treatment and of reaching remission status. Forty-six individuals with major depressive disorder completed six days of ecological momentary assessments (10 beeps/day) before starting a combination of pharmac…
A Network Approach to Psychopathology
In the network approach to psychopathology, disorders are conceptualized as networks of mutually interacting symptoms (e.g., depressed mood) and transdiagnostic factors (e.g., rumination). This suggests that it is necessary to study how symptoms dynamically interact over time in a network architecture. In the present paper, we show how such an architecture can be constructed on the basis of time-series data obtained through Experience Sampling Me…
Susceptibility to Depression Expressed as Alterations in Cortisol Day Curve
Objective: To examine, using a cross-twin cross-trait design, the hypotheses 1) that the genetic and environmental susceptibility to depression is expressed, in part, as alterations in cortisol day curves and 2) that cortisol abnormalities are not merely the consequence of depressive states or the stressors associated with its onset. Alteration of diurnal secretion of cortisol is a possible endophenotype of depression, as depressed patients show …
Diurnal mood variation in major depressive disorder
Depression disturbs mood, but a clear picture of diurnal mood rhythms in depression has yet to emerge. This study examined variations in positive affect (PA) and negative affect (NA), two dimensions of mood that generate diurnal patterns among healthy individuals. Repeated measurements of NA and PA in daily life were obtained over 6 days from 47 depressed outpatients and 39 healthy individuals using the Experience Sampling Method. Relative to hea…
Cortisol Responses to Daily Events in Major Depressive Disorder
OBJECTIVE: Abnormal responses of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis to stress are thought to be involved in the pathophysiology of major depressive disorder (MDD). The aim of the present study was to determine whether cortisol responses to negative and positive daily events in depressed participants (N= 47) differed from such responses in healthy participants (N= 39). We also examined the influence of clinical characteristics and possi…
