Abstract Post-traumatic growth (PTG) refers to potential positive outcomes following exposure to trauma and may have been experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic. The present study investigated the mediating role of emotion regulation (cognitive reappraisal) and self-compassion in the relationship between spirituality and PTG. The sample comprised 700 patients with COVID-19 who were hospitalized during their illness at Hazrat-Rasoul Hospital in Tehran, Iran (395 males, mean age = 52 years, SD = 14, age range = 14–95 years). Data were collected using a questionnaire packet that included the Post-Traumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI), the Daily Spiritual Experience Scale (DSES), the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire [...]
Abstract Sex offenders and non-sexual violent offenders display distinct cognitive distortions that shape their offenses. Some evidence suggests that early maladaptive schemas which reflect individuals’ fundamental cognitions and beliefs, contribute to these cognitive distortions. However, these have not been systematically appraised. We conducted a systematic review to synthesize the evidence regarding the schema profiles of sex offenders and non-sexual violent offenders, and to explore differences in schemas between these offender types. Eight studies met the inclusion criteria. Within the sex offender category, rapists and child sex offenders endorsed similar schemas. For non-sexual violent offenders, schemas related to self-control issues and [...]
Abstract Psychological distress in women represents a critical aspect; however, few studies have comprehensively addressed how health management strategies, consideration of future consequences (CFC), cognitive reappropriation, and self-efficacy may influence this phenomenon, especially in contexts that require a comprehensive approach to women’s mental health. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of future consequence consideration, cognitive reappraisal, and self-efficacy in health management on psychological distress in American women, as well as to demonstrate their equivalence according to age. Data from 2788 women responding to the 2019 Health Information National Trends Survey 5, cycle 3 were used. A predictive model was [...]
Abstract Repeated suicide attempts are a significant risk factor for suicide, and anxiety sensitivity has been proposed as one of the individual characteristics that increase such attempts. However, there is a lack of research that explores the underlying mechanism of how anxiety sensitivity is associated with suicide attempts. The present study examined the mediating effect of rumination and hopelessness in the relationship between anxiety sensitivity and repeated suicide attempts among psychiatric patients. The moderating effect of gender in this mediating relationship was also investigated. Two hundred twenty-nine patients who visited the psychiatric department at a university hospital in Seoul completed [...]
Abstract An evidence-based intervention for many psychiatric and health problems, cognitive behavioral therapy originated in the West before being disseminated globally. While Saudi Arabia is unique, in that it is at the heart of the Islamic world, it is similar to most other countries in that mental disorders are common. Nonetheless, few studies have examined cognitive behavioral therapy in Saudi Arabia. In this scoping review, cognitive behavioral therapy training, practice, and research in Saudi Arabia were explored by searching several English and Arabic databases. Various education and training programs were outlined. Moreover, cognitive behavioral therapy practice in Saudi Arabia in [...]
Neighborhoods provide essential resources (e.g., education, safe housing, green space) that influence neurodevelopment and mental health. However, we need a clearer understanding of the mechanisms mediating these relationships. Limited access to neighborhood resources may hinder youth from achieving their goals and, over time, shape their behavioral and neurobiological response to negatively biased environments blocking goals/ rewards. [...]
In this issue, Krebs et al.1 report on the prevalence of body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) in young people at the population level, addressing several important gaps in the literature. Previous attempts to estimate the prevalence of BDD in young people primarily relied on samples of students or twins, potentially lacking representativeness, and used self-administered instruments for estimation. While these studies employed validated cut-offs, ensuring reasonable sensitivity and specificity, they were unable to fully exclude alternative explanations for symptoms, such as concerns regarding body weight. [...]
Establishing effective treatments for youth at risk of suicide is one of the most pressing and important tasks within psychiatry. Self-harm, which includes suicide attempts (SA), non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) and non-suicidal self-poisoning, is one of the strongest predictors of suicide.1 Youth who self-harm or are in mental health crisis are becoming more and more common, at increasingly younger ages, and so confidence in treatments to successfully reduce self-harm and prevent relapse and recurrence is crucial. [...]
Bipolar disorder (BD) is a complex heterogeneous illness, with 60-85% of its variance attributed to genetic factors.1 Adolescence marks the first peak period of risk for the onset of BD, with the initial (hypo)manic episode often preceded by childhood psychopathology, including anxiety and sleep disorders, as well as internalizing symptoms.2 Given the non-specific nature of childhood antecedents, combined with the prominence of depressive episodes in the early illness course, accurate diagnosis is often delayed by 8-10 years from onset. [...]
598 youth in the United States ages 10 to 14 years old died by suicide in 2021, the second leading cause of death in this age group (with accidents first, malignant neoplasms third and homicides fourth) and the third leading cause of death in ages 15 to 24 years (with accidents first and homicide second).1 Suicide rates in ages 10 to 19 years increased by almost 50% from 2010 to 2019 and by 100% in ages 10 to 14 with ethnic and racial variations in rates.2. Rates in Black youth ages 10 to 17 are reported to have increased at [...]
