Introduction Public Speaking Anxiety (PSA), also referred to as public speaking anxiety, is a costly (Lépine, 2002) and disabling fear (Blöte et al., 2009), with prevalence rates ranging from 21 (Pollard and Henderson, 1988) to 33% (Stein et al., 1996; D'El Rey and Pacini, 2005) in community samples. FoPS has been reported as the single most commonly feared situation in both university and community samples (Pollard and Henderson, 1988; Holt et al., 1992; Stein et al., 1996; Tillfors and Furmark, 2007).EFT is an energy psychotherapy derivative application consisting of cognitive and somatic components used to improve personal negative emotions and related emotional and physical ailments.It is reported that the most recognized and used EFT among Energy Therapies is an effective method especially on anxiety, depression, burnout, stress management, and fears (Feinstein 2008; Irmak Vural & Aslan, 2018; Sezgin, 2017; Sezgin & Özcan, 2009).Breatihin therapy is another one. Purpose of the study The current study aims to determine the effect of the Breath Therapy and Emotional Freedom Technique on public speaking anxiety in Turkish Nursing Students. The purpose of the study was to evaluate two research hypotheses as follows: H1: Emotional freedom technique is effective in reducing public speaking anxiety H2: Breath Therapy is effective in reducing public speaking anxiety A randomized controlled experimental research design will be used. The study complied with the guidelines of the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) checklist. The data will be collected with demographic information form, Subjective Discomfort Unit Scale, The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and Speech Anxiety Scale.demographic information form: This form contains 5 questions including the age, gender, economic status, place of residence of students in the form developed by the researchers. Subjective Units of Disturbance Scale SUDS. It was developed by Wolpe (1970). This scale, which is used in energy therapies and evaluates the individual's own discomfort, is scored between 0 and 10. 0 no discomfort 10 is considered to be unbearable discomfort (Wolpe, 1973). The individual should evaluate the discomfort he feels at that moment and give a score. This score serves as a concrete and basic starting point for the patient's condition at the time of application and reflects the change at the end of the application. According to the Church; EFT; Individuals' discomfort assessments are made using the Subjective Units of Disturbance (SUD) scale used by Wolpe (Church, 2013a). he State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI Tx-1 and Tx-2) It was developed by Spilberg et al to detect the state and trait anxiety levels of individuals. Its validity and reliability in Turkish was done by Öner and Lecompte. The scale consists of a total of 40 questions, 20 questions of state anxiety and 20 questions of constant anxiety. State anxiety scale; to state how the person feels at any time and under any circumstances; It is asked to answer taking into account the feeling related to the situation. On the scale of trait anxiety; one is often expected to interpret how he feels. There are positive and negative expressions on the scale. These statements; are expressed as plain and inverted expressions. Straight expressions, negative emotions; reversed statements reflect positive emotions. There are 8 reversed statements on the state anxiety scale and 7 on the trait anxiety scale. Items on the state anxiety scale 1, 2, 5, 8, 10, 11, 15, 16, 19, 20, and on the trait anxiety scale 1,6,7,10,13,16,19. items are reversed statements. The emotions, thoughts and behaviors stated in the state anxiety scale are answered as 1: none, 4: completely according to the violence level of the experiences. Feelings, thoughts and behaviors stated in the trait anxiety scale are also marked as 1-almost never, 4-almost always according to the frequency level. For both scales; 0-19 points (none), 20-39 points (mild), 40-59 points (moderate), 60- 79 points (severe), 80 points and above are considered as very severe anxiety. Cronbach alpha value of the state anxiety scale was 0.93; The Cronbach alpha value of the trait anxiety scale is 0.94 (Öner, 1998). In the present study, Cronbach's alpha value was found to be 0.81 for the STAI Tx-1 and 0.76 for the STAI Tx-2. Speech Anxiety Scale (CUR): It was developed by Yaman and Sofu (2013) to evaluate students' speech anxiety levels. The scale consisting of 25 items is scored as 5-point Likert type and 1: strongly disagree, 4: strongly agree. In the scale, items 5, 6, 9, 10, 13 and 14 are reversed. A high score indicates that the person's anxiety to speak is high. Cronbach alpha value of the scale was found to be 0.79. In this study, Cronbach alpha value is 0.78.
Our primary aim is to compare the effect of pre-operative multimedia video information on perioperative anxiety and hemodynamic parameters.
Although coronaviruses (CoV) cause mild infections in the community, such as colds, they can also cause more severe infections. There are many subspecies of coronaviruses that can pass from animals to humans and can be transmitted between humans. One of these subspecies is COVID-19 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2), SARS-CoV-2, and has made a worldwide pandemic from the beginning of 2020. In this process, going out of the house, going to the hospital and being in the hospital brings with it the anxiety to get sick. In the period when the feeling of motherhood begins at the end of birth, the hospitalization of the baby for any reason and the separation of the mother and the baby can be an additional source of stress. This study was planned to determine the anxiety and anxiety levels of mothers who had a baby in the NICU during Coronavirus disease pandemic and the factors affecting them.
In this study the goal is to determine the causes of concern among the patients who will undergo surgical operations and receive general anesthesia, to gauge their preoperative anxiety levels and to study the effects of the BATHE method on preoperative anxiety and patient satisfaction.
This randomized clinical on-line study examines whether whether a daily practice of meditation or Kundalini Yoga with anxiety reduction training leads to a greater reduction in anxiety than anxiety reduction training alone.
In our study; Anxiety and depression levels, socio-demographic characteristics of the pregnant women who were admitted to our hospital between 25.04.2020-25.07.2020 and treated with the diagnosis of covid 19, and the change in anxiety and depression levelsWİTH Beck Depression and Anxiety Score after the disease regressed are planned. (Beck depression scale contains 10 questions and a total of 1 to 100 points is obtained. High score indicates that depression and anxiety are high.) 0-16 points = mild depressive symptoms 17-29 points = moderate depressive symptoms 30-63 points = severe depressive symptoms
Given the continued high human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevalence rates among gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM) in North American cities, there is a critical need for HIV prevention interventions for MSM in Canada. Social anxiety, or anxiety about being evaluated in interpersonal and performance situations, is a reliable risk factor for condomless anal sex (CAS) among MSM. Social anxiety may also increase substance use in sexual situations, which is another risk factor for HIV among MSM. As such, an empirically-based social anxiety treatment may also reduce HIV risk behaviours among MSM. The present study will provide the first efficacy data for a novel and innovative HIV prevention intervention for MSM. This intervention will build upon empirically supported interventions to reduce HIV risk among MSM and therapies to reduce social anxiety. The investigators propose to test the efficacy of a novel integrated HIV prevention intervention that combines the most empirically supported treatment for social anxiety disorder, cognitive-behavioural therapy, with HIV risk reduction counselling in order to simultaneously treat social anxiety disorder, substance use disorders, and HIV sexual risk behaviour. This study will be a randomized controlled trial comparing the study intervention relative to applied relaxation, a behavioural intervention that is efficacious in treating social anxiety disorder but that does not address substance use problems or HIV sexual risk behaviours. For this trial, 176 participants will be randomized to either 12 sessions of cognitive-behavioural therapy with HIV risk reduction counselling or 12 sessions of applied relaxation. Participants will be eligible for the trial if they are HIV-negative, report clinically significant symptoms of social anxiety disorder, substance use 2 hours before or during sexual activity, and CAS without the use of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with a male partner who was not known to be HIV-negative. PrEP is a biomedical prevention approach in which HIV-negative individuals are provided with daily oral antiretroviral medication for the primary prevention of HIV.126 The present intervention, if found to be efficacious, is innovative in that mental health clinicians will be able to not only extend empirically supported therapies tested primarily with heterosexual populations to MSM, but they will also be able to prevent HIV through empirically supported psychotherapy practice.
The article presents a protocol of a cross-sectional study of mental health of pregnant women in relation to the COVID 19 pandemic. The primary aim is to compare differences in anxiety and depression scores of pregnant women between countries affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The secondary aim is to assess demographic, economic, and social aspects affecting maternal anxiety and depression scores among pregnant women worldwide in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. Finally, investigators will be able to compare differences in perception of the different aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic (social distancing, restrictions related to delivery) between countries and according to the epidemic status (number of infected patients, number of reported deaths). The comparisons will also be done according to COVID-19 status of the participants.
