Service members and/or recently separated veterans with post traumatic stress symptoms and mild traumatic brain injury may participate in 8 sessions including 2 sessions including interviews and questionnaires as well as 6 sessions of art therapy. In the art therapy, participants will be provided with a blank paper mache mask template and invited to alter the mask however they wish using a variety of art materials. The therapist will use the art-making process and culminating product to aid in self-reflection, reframe negative thoughts and feelings, and work through traumatic content. Prior to the session start participants will get set up with a mobile qEEG (worn like a hat and backpack). The qEEG will measure brain activity in a non-invasive way throughout the art therapy session to improve understanding of brain activity during the art therapy process.
Symptoms of generalized anxiety is common in the general population and is often treated in primary health care. Anger is an emotion that can lead to interpersonal problems but can also be an agent for justice and change. Previous research has shown a link between generalized anxiety and anger but there is a lack of qualitative research investigating how individuals with symptoms of generalized anxiety experience anger. The aim of this research study is to increase knowledge about how anger is experienced in adult patients in primary health care with symptoms of generalized anxiety and about the experiences of health care professionals working with patients with symptoms of generalized anxiety.
This is a clinical trial of a novel intervention, Behavioral Therapy for Irritability and Aggression (BTIA), for adolescents on the autism spectrum. The main goals of BTIA are to help adolescents develop emotion regulation skills to handle frustration and to strengthen skills for navigating the challenging and diverse experiences associated with the transition to adulthood. The study will test whether BTIA can be helpful to adolescents on the autism spectrum and to their families.
Aim: The aim of the study was to examine the effects of progressive muscle relaxation training with music therapy on sleep quality, trait anger, and anger expression style of patients at the community mental health center. Method: The study is conducted as the pretest-posttest control group design. The study population consisted of chronic psychiatric patients who continue in a Community Mental Health Center located in southeastern Turkey. The days when the participants came to the Community Mental Health Center were selected and the participants divided into two groups as an intervention and control group.
Our purpose is to conduct a 4-arm placebo-controlled clinical trial to investigate the relative clinical efficacy of 300 mg. of pure hemp-derived CBD isolate, 300 mg. of full spectrum CBD oil, 300 mg. of broad- spectrum CBD Oil, or Placebo oil among adults presenting with COVID-19 -induced stress reactions including one or more of the following: anxiety, depression, anger, substance use, or sleep disturbance.
The aim of this study is to investigate the levels of parental stress 3 months after (T2) the strict physical distancing government initiated physical distancing protocols related to the COVID-19 pandemic (T1). The study also aims to investigate how predictors measured during the COVID-19 pandemic are associated with parental stress 3 months after when the majority of the protocols are lifted.
The current US opioid epidemic is a pressing public health concern. Links between opioid misuse and mortality are well-known; nearly 70% of all drug overdose deaths in 2017 were attributable to opioids. Given their pain-relieving properties, opioids have been widely used in the chronic pain population who are also susceptible to misuse of these analgesics.. In chronic pain patients with anger, the pain as well as opioid use may be aggravated. For example, suppression of anger has been linked with increased pain sensitivity in experiments, while anger-hostility scores and internalized anger predict pain severity variance and pain intensity, respectively. Anger is also linked with drug use/abuse, including opioids. The goal of this research is to implement a state-of-the-art program for anger regulation in chronic pain patients., Called Cognitive Behavioral Affective Therapy (CBAT), this program is evaluated on multiple measures of anger, sensory versus affective measures of pain, and measures of opioid misuse. CBAT is expected to reduce anger, and thereby produce reduction in pain as well as shift attitudes away from opioid misuse..
This project examines the development of psychological well-being in children and teachers through a 12- week forgiveness education program conducted in three conflict zones of the world, Northern Ireland, Israel/Palestine, and Taiwan. A 12-week forgiveness education program will be investigated in elementary schools in three conflict zones of the world, Northern Ireland, Israel/Palestine, and Taiwan. The responsibilities of the sub-team in each of the three research sites will be: - a. recruiting schools, assisting the teacher training before the forgiveness education program starts - b. shepherding teachers, doing the fidelity checks, administering the instruments and collecting data during the forgiveness education program. Once a school gives permission to be part of this study, the forgiveness curriculum will be implemented as a 12-week standard curriculum for the grade 5 (US equivalency) students. Teachers of the grade 5 classes will be trained to administer the program. Teachers, students and their parents must give the consent to take part in the measures of the study.
Given the public health and social relevance of sexual aggression and the gap in the extant literature regarding state anger, emotion regulation, alcohol, and sexual aggression, the present study will contribute to our understanding of emotion regulation's role in sexual aggression perpetration. The proposed 2-year research plan will examine the effects of alcohol intoxication, state anger, and emotion regulation on men's sexual aggression intentions. This study will recruit non-monogamous, men (individuals who identify their gender as male and whose biological sex is male) who have sex with women, ages 21-35. While more research on female perpetrators is needed, the proposed study will exclusively recruit males for the following reasons: 1) the scientific literature indicating the majority of sexually aggressive acts are perpetrated by men; and 2) the current sexual aggression analog has not been piloted with female participants and would require preliminary experiments to determine its appropriateness. The study will utilize a 2x2 design in which participants are randomized to beverage condition [alcohol (target BAC= .08gm%) or control (no alcohol control)] and an emotion induction (anger induction or control). The outcomes will be assessed using a sexual aggression analog which participants will complete on the descending limb of alcohol intoxication and indicate the likelihood that they would engage in various sexually aggressive acts. The study also includes self-report measurements of state anger and emotion regulation to explore emotion regulation as a moderator in the associations among alcohol intoxication, state anger, and sexual aggression intentions.
