Filter by:According to the increasing worldwide prevalence rate of psychiatric disorders in youth, the mental health of youth is becoming more and more important. Taiwan's Ministry of Health and Welfare reported the clibing suicide rate of youth in past five years and showed the prevention work and related intervention for youth's mental health was noteable. The definition of emotion regulation was "consists of the extrinsic and intrinsic processes responsible for monitoring, evaluating, and modifying emotional reactions, especially their intensive and temporal features, to accomplish one's goals." Emotion regulation strategies including "rumination", "avoidance", "suppression", "Problem-solving", "reappraisal", "acceptance", "social support", and "distraction". Previous studies had examined the relationship between emotion regulation and mental health in youth; maladaptive emotion regulation would increase the individual's depressive and anxiety symptoms. Carstensen proposed social emotion theory in 1995 Selectivity theory (SST) refers to the need for emotion regulation, which activates Social participation in late adulthood. SST assumes that young people are more interested in social interaction behaviors related to information seeking and building self-concept. characteristics of youth affected by many normative challenges such as adolescence, school transitions, and more complex social Landscape; Adaptive emotion regulation will reduce risk of clinical emotion attacks of illness, especially depression and anxiety.To explore the relationship between emotion regulation and mental health from a psychosocial developmental aspect, we focused on the interaction between individual and environment. Compared with the previous generation, most youths of this generation were participating in social activities and building up interpersonal relationships through the internet, suggesting the internet was an important social context.
The purpose of this study is to administer the Unified Protocols for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders in Children (UP-C) and Adolescents (UP-A) to youth and participants' parents and to examine the efficacy and outcomes of the treatment using standardized measures, questionnaires, interviews. The UP-C and the UP-A are cognitive-behavioral therapies to treat emotional disorders.
To investigate the intervention effect of transcranial alternating current stimulation(tACS) on anxiety symptoms and somatic symptoms in patients with anxiety disorder and its underlying neural mechanism by MRI.
Anxiety and depressive disorders, referred to as emotional disorders, have high rates of prevalence, recurrence, and functional impairment. Transdiagnostic psychotherapy targeting shared features of these disorders has recently emerged. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) for the transdiagnostic treatment of emotional disorders is a promising approach, as results of preliminary studies for use in a broad range of mental disorders are encouraging. Since there is a lack of research on transdiagnostic psychotherapy in Taiwan, the investigators thus propose this 3-year randomized controlled trial to test the efficacy of a modified DBT for the treatment of transdiagnostic emotional disorders and to further evaluate whether the efficacy of modified DBT differs in the specific emotional disorders. The investigators expect that patients with emotional disorders receiving modified DBT are more likely to improve clinical outcomes, functioning, and quality of life.
This study will use a systematic music therapy intervention on patients with mental illness trying to help them with their internalized stigma.
The goal of this study is to examine if verbal instructions can improve fear extinction learning and extinction retrieval in patients with anxiety disorders (AD) and healthy controls.
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the therapeutic effect of pulse magnetic therapy system combined with drug therapy on patients with anxiety and insomnia. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Whether the pulse magnetic therapy system is benefit on improving insomnia in anxiety patients. 2. This improvement is not due to the placement of the instrument。 Participants will accept pulse magnetic therapy (stimulation/sham stimulation) and accept scale evaluation before and after treatment. Researchers will compare the pulse magnetic stimulation group, sham stimulation group and healthy controls to see if the pulse magnetic stimulation do effect on insomnia of anxiety patients.
Anxiety disorders have the highest prevalence among mental disorders and cause considerable individual and financial costs. Current treatments do not relieve mental suffering of many patients. Understanding neurobiological mechanisms involved in pathological anxiety is a major scientific challenge.
Native Americans (NA) are at greater risk for anxiety and depression early in life. This is concerning given potential negative effects of these conditions across the lifespan (substance use, suicide). Available culturally adapted prevention and early interventions (PEIs) for anxiety and depression in NA youth are limited. Thus, there is a critical need for the development and evaluation of a culturally consonant, brief PEI for anxiety and depression in NA youth. The investigators' short-term goal is to provide the community with a potentially successful PEI to mitigate NA youth's anxiety and depression that integrates culture and traditions for delivery in schools. The Specific Aims of the proposed research are to 1) culturally adapt COMPASS for Courage for NA youth living on a Northern Plains tribal reservation (chosen by the Cultural Advisory Board; CAB), 2) evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the culturally-adapted COMPASS with NA youth living on the reservation, and 3) estimate effect size changes in anxiety and depressive symptoms of the culturally adapted COMPASS with the NA youth. The investigators propose to build upon the investigators' strong community relationships and CBPR methods to achieve these aims. The investigators will partner with the CAB to culturally adapt COMPASS for NA youth in year 1 within a CBPR framework, including NA youth and parents. In year 2, the investigators will train three NA providers from the tribal community and pilot test the adapted PEI among 30 NA 8-12-year-olds in two schools serving youth from the reservation in Years 2 and 3. The investigators will evaluate feasibility and acceptability using mixed methods including focus groups of key stakeholders (youth, parents, and teachers) and estimate effect sizes of changes in anxiety and depressive symptoms using a pre-post, single group design. The investigators hypothesize NA youth will find the adapted COMPASS intervention to be acceptable, enjoyable, and culturally appropriate and there will be pre- to post-intervention reductions in anxiety and depressive symptoms. The long-term goal is to continue refining and tailoring the adapted COMPASS intervention and evaluate its efficacy and sustainability in the tribal community.
Despite the prevalence of posttraumatic stress disorder and anxiety disorders among Veterans, there has been limited focus on the development of interventions that include family members in treatments provided to Veterans. This is a feasibility study that examines a novel adjunct intervention (Adjunctive Family-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy; AF-CBT) developed for family members of Veterans undergoing behavioral treatment for anxiety-based disorders. Phase one involves piloting AF-CBT with family members and conducting qualitative interviews to obtain feedback about the utility and acceptability of the intervention. The refined protocol will be used in phase two, which involves an open trial where Veterans and family members will complete the intervention and attend a 1-month follow up assessment, including a qualitative interview.
