Attributing Emotional Distress to Supernatural Causes
Applying the lifestyle lens to population mental health science
In response to Dodge et al.'s (2024) call for a new population mental health science, I propose that such an approach would be greatly benefited by focusing on the role of everyday lifestyle factors. In conjunction with the burgeoning evidence demonstrating the physical and mental health benefits of healthy lifestyles, applying a "lifestyle lens" to this endeavor would unify diverse providers and researchers in the common goal of healthy lifestyl…

Examining the Longitudinal Bi-Directional Associations of Friend Engagement, Social Functioning, and Depression
Various components of social functioning predict depression and these associations can vary by gender. Bi-directional associations may be important to consider as social factors may influence depressive symptoms while depressive symptoms may impact social factors. Most previous longitudinal research examining bi-directional effects has traditionally used the cross-lagged panel model (CLPM), which has some inherent weaknesses. This study sought to…
Does sunlight exposure predict next-night sleep? A daily diary study among U.S. adults
Poor sleep is becoming increasingly prevalent and is associated with adverse health outcomes. Sunlight exposure may improve sleep by regulating circadian rhythms, increasing vitamin D, and influencing melatonin production. However, research on the sunlight-sleep association is limited, especially outside of cross-sectional designs. This study examined associations between daily self-reported sunlight exposure and next-night sleep quality in 103 a…
Exploring the longitudinal clustering of lifestyle behaviors, social determinants of health, and depression
Lifestyle behaviors such as exercise, sleep, smoking, diet, and social interaction are associated with depression. This study aimed to model the complex relationships between lifestyle behaviors and depression and among the lifestyle behaviors. Data from three waves of the Midlife in the United States study were used, involving 6898 adults. Network models revealed associations between the lifestyle behaviors and depression, with smoker status bei…
Enjoying nature, exercise, social interaction, and affect
This study investigated the pathways linking daily nature enjoyment to affect by testing whether the associations would be fully explained by exercise and social interaction. Participants ( N = 782; 55.6% female; age 25-74, Mage = 47.9) from the Midlife in the United States (MIDUS) refresher study completed surveys across 8 days. Multilevel models indicated that enjoying nature with others tended to predict affect at the within-person level, whil…
Is a better planned day a healthier day? A daily diary study
OBJECTIVE: Previous research has shown that intentions, implementation intentions, active planning and coping planning predict engagement in important health behaviours. This study investigated the role of general daily planning as opposed to specific behaviour planning as a predictor of engagement in lifestyle behaviours. The study also examined conscientiousness and mean levels of planning as moderators of that relationship. DESIGN: This study …
Resilience predicts posttraumatic cognitions after a trauma reminder task and subsequent positive emotion induction among veterans with PTSD
Thus, resilience may attenuate negative trauma-related cognitions after trauma recall; however, this study was not designed to test causal pathways. Future research could examine whether resilience-building exercises reduce negative PTCs after trauma reminders among veterans. Additional research is needed to generalize to other trauma-exposed populations. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
Social Engagement Early in the U.S. Covid-19 Crisis
Introduction: Social distancing and sheltering-in-place mitigate the physical health risks of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19); however, there are concerns about the impact on mental health and social engagement. Methods: We used data from a U.S.-based online survey (March 2020) to examine patterns of social support and prosocial behavior, explore differences between people with and without depression or anxiety, and explore correlates of social …
Lifestyle behaviors, psychological distress, and well-being
An exploratory study of friendship characteristics and their relations with hedonic and eudaimonic well-being
Friendships are an important source of happiness, well-being, physical health, and longevity. Researchers have often linked unidimensional friendship quality to life satisfaction and positive affect, which are hedonic forms of well-being. Aristotle presented an expanded view of friendship with three general characteristics: Utility, Pleasure, and Virtue. Following his theory, we expected Pleasure and Utility characteristics to be primarily relate…
Beyond Harms
Wendt, Gone, and Nagata raise some very important questions about harm in psychotherapy and initiate a valuable dialogue between scholars of potentially harmful therapy and multicultural counseling and psychotherapy. This comment enlarges upon the authors’ view that harms cannot be understood independently of goods by providing an argument that goods have an inherent place in psychotherapy and in multicultural viewpoints. The goods of psychothera…

The Logic of Decision and Action
Some Nasty Problems in the Formal Logic of Ethics
The thesis so put sounds innocuous enough, but such is the perversity of my professional colleagues and critics2 (the two collections being almost, if not exactly, coextensive) that arguments on the matter seem to be required. These I have attempted to provide, as I said, from two points of view: firstly that of a philosopher of ethics or law, and secondly that of a formal logician. The main purpose of the present paper is to consider some proble…

Toward a formal analysis of cultural objects
Autotelic Folk-Models
This paper is concerned with cultural products called autotelic, i.e., cultural products such as puzzles, games of chance, games of strategy, and aesthetic objects, all of which contain their own goals and sources of motivation. Such activities are 'cut off' in a sense, from serious and immediate problems of survival and welfare, and are protected by autotelic norms which dictate that participation must not impinge on serious problems. As a heuri…

The mental image or idea was thought to be like a mirror image or portrait or possibly a map which reproduces exactly or in some proportion the features of the object represented. The idea was true in proportion as it reproduced the objected represented.... The naive pictorial theory of correspondence was accordingly rejected by the more critical mechanists, and numerous attempts have been made to de…
