Adaptive mentalization-based integrative therapy for severe personality disorder and mental illness
Research Portal of CCMO Onderzoek met mensen, Trial Registration Number NL-010303, https://www.onderzoekmetmensen.nl/en/trial/57877, registered on June 27, 2025. OSF Registries, https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/QHYCW, preregistered on May 7, 2025
Identifying subtypes of suicidality
The (h)4ME demonstrates promising usability and feasibility when tested by staff of psychiatric emergency services. Replication studies of samples of various clinical, demographic or ethnic origin and of diverse professional background and contexts are needed to confirm the consistency of these findings
Diverging effects of mentalization based treatment for patients with borderline personality disorder and schizophrenia
Patients with BPD performed better after receiving MBT on three dimensions of mentalizing capacity than SCZ patients who received MBT. Remarkably, SCZ patients who received MBT performed better on one dimension of mentalizing capacity compared to SCZ patients who did not receive MBT. Whereas MBT for BPD clearly involves improvement on most aspects of mentalizing, MBT for SCZ seems to thwart a further decline of other-oriented, cognitive mentalizi…
Reported Childhood Abuse and Stress Reactivity in Psychosis
A previous study observed that reported childhood abuse moderated psychotic and emotional reactivity to stress among patients with non-affective psychotic disorder. However, that study used a type of analysis unsuited for skewed data. This study aimed (1) to replicate the study and (2) to examine whether we would obtain similar results using a statistical approach better suited to skewed data. Fifty-nine patients with non-affective psychotic diso…
Explaining unexplainable food choices
In recent years, psychologists have started to investigate the downstream consequences of nonconsciously activated behaviour (acting in an ‘explanatory vacuum’). Results have shown that when such behaviour is norm‐violating, people experience a need to confabulate reasons for this behaviour. The present paper aims to add more convincing evidence for this assumption. Study 1 addresses this question by replicating Study 2 of Adriaanse, Weijers, De …
Confabulating reasons for behaving bad
Numerous studies have been conducted to demonstrate that behaviours are frequently activated unconsciously. The present studies investigate the downstream psychological consequences of such unconscious behaviour activation, building on work on the explanatory vacuum and post‐priming misattribution. It was hypothesized that unconsciously activated behaviours trigger a negative affective response if the behaviour violates a personal standard and th…
