The study will compare 8-week Mindful Self-Compassion training, compared to a control group that does not receive the intervention, on anxiety and depression symptom severity in patients with diagnosed anxiety disorders (generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, and panic disorder) or major depressive disorder.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of acceptance and commitment therapy-based psychoeducation on test anxiety, study skills and psychological flexibility on adolescents. test anxiety scale, study skills scale and psychological flexibility scale are data collection tools. The pretest-posttest is a randomized controlled trial. Experimental and control groups were formed. A 6-week psychoeducation will be applied to the experimental group.
Approximately 30% of children will experience an anxiety disorder, making anxiety the most common mental health problem among children in the United States. However, few children receive treatment and even our most effective anxiety treatments leave up to half of children in need of additional intervention. Despite the well-established role of parent anxiety in transmitting and maintaining child anxiety, the lack of data on specific parent mechanisms underlying the intergenerational transmission of anxiety is a critical barrier to informing novel targets of personalized treatments. Consistent with NIMH's Strategic Plan, Objective 2.2 to understand risk factors and behavioral indicators of mental illness across the lifespan and to identify novel intervention targets based on knowledge of psychological mechanisms, the current study focuses on interpretation bias, the tendency to perceive threat in ambiguous situations. The overall objective of this project is to empirically test a theoretical model of the intergenerational transmission of anxiety focused on parent interpretation bias as a root cause. Our specific aims are to test theorized effects of parent interpretation bias on (1) parent behavior and (2) child interpretation bias and (3) evaluate potential moderators to refine theories of intergenerational transmission of anxiety and inform future personalized interventions. Our central hypothesis is that parent interpretation bias influences child interpretation bias through its effects on maladaptive, anxiety-promoting parenting behaviors, such as accommodation and modeling of avoidant coping. To test this hypothesis, we will randomize 300 parents of children ages 7-12 to complete four weeks of a smartphone delivered interpretation bias manipulation vs. a self-assessment smartphone app condition. The interpretation bias intervention teaches parents to interpret ambiguous situations in a non-threatening manner via quick, repeated practice and corrective feedback. Before and after completing their randomly assigned condition, parent-child dyads will complete self-report and behavioral tasks designed to elicit anxiety-promoting behaviors from parents depending upon their interpretation of the ambiguous situation (speech and puzzle tasks). Parents will also complete Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) of parenting behaviors to capture the time course of effects. Finally, we will examine downstream effects of the interpretation manipulation on child interpretation bias at pre- and post- visits. We will test moderators (e.g., parent anxiety and gender) to refine theories of intergenerational transmission of anxiety and inform future personalized interventions. The long-term goal of this work is to inform personalized, mechanism-focused interventions to improve mental health outcomes for anxious children and their parents. Future studies will translate knowledge gained from this project into a scalable treatment that can be implemented entirely remotely via smartphone thereby increasing access to care
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and anxiety disorders are common and debilitating conditions which are often chronic when treatment is not provided. International guidelines recommend cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as the first-line treatment, and research has shown that CBT can be delivered over a concentrated period of time. The Bergen 4-Day Treatment (B4DT) is an exposure-based treatment which is delivered over four consecutive days. B4DT has been shown to induce rapid and long-lasting remission in around 70% of patients. This provides a platform for studying psychological and neurobiological changes associated with treatment response and non-response. The present study will investigate longitudinal changes in psychological measures and DNA methylation in patients who receive the B4DT, as well as a subset will also undergo multimodal brain imaging.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effect of lavender essential oil on pre-procedure anxiety for patients undergoing ultrasound guided musculoskeletal procedures
With the SuRxgWell study, the investigators envision multipronged benefits from this pilot work for the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) Insurance Services Division (ISD) and its members. The RxWell platform is expected to provide the following benefits: expansion of the use of RxWell to all UPMC ISD members providing peri-operative mood management with advantage of improved peri-operative outcomes, improving saving for the UPMC ISD by hastening the recovery and decreased resource utilization, and addition to the high-value care of UPMC with this holistic approach to patient perioperative care.
A 24-week, patient- and rater-blinded, two-arm, parallel-group controlled, and multi-centre randomized clinical trial (RCT) to establish the benefits of pharmacogenetics-informed pharmacotherapy versus dosing as usual (DAU) in psychiatric patients suffering from mood, anxiety, or psychotic disorders.
The aim of this study is to examine the effects of virtual reality glasses and distraction cards, which are cognitive behavioral techniques, on women's pain, anxiety and satisfaction levels. It is aimed to reduce your anxiety level, reduce pain level and increase feelings of satisfaction by showing you a nature video with Virtual Reality Glasses or showing distraction cards so that you can spend this process more comfortably while IUD is being applied. The following questions are expected to be answered in this research: When virtual reality glasses and distraction cards are applied during the IUD procedure; (1) Does it affect the woman's pain level? (2) Does it affect the woman's anxiety level? (3) does it have an effect on women's satisfaction? In addition, it is aimed to reveal the effectiveness of virtual reality glasses and distraction cards in the IUD application process, which is one of the modern family planning methods in midwifery applications, and to bring a non-invasive and cost-effective option into practice.
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of an original exercise program intended for students of the University of Music on dealing with stage fright and its psychophysical symptoms.
