Emotional disorders (anxiety and/or depression) are severely undiagnosed and untreated despite being among the most common mental disorders, particularly at a young age. Half of all mental disorders begin by age 14; three-quarters by age 24, which makes adolescence a particularly crucial stage. In adolescence, prodromal signs of mental disorders and even full-blown clinical conditions often remain undetected, undiagnosed and untreated. However, there is an absence of evidence-based protocols to reach at high risk youth for developing emotional disorders. There is an urgent need for a paradigm shift by developing intervention protocols to early identify and treat vulnerable adolescents, thus preventing them from developing severe mental disorders later on in life. Mental health indicated prevention is key to helping at-high risk adolescents thrive before emotional disorder evolves. To cover this gap, PROCARE-I is conceptualized as a modularized indicated preventive programme for adolescents aged 12 to 18 years, adapting UP-A protocol with author's permission and supervision. Adolescents will be allocated to a 2-arm intervention trial, delivered as a group, as telehealth format as a result of Covid19 restrictions imposed by government. The PROCARE-I protocol aims to enhance protective factors that will eventually lead to lasting positive effects for adolescents. PROCARE-I will combine quantitative analysis, with special attention to vulnerable groups in a sex/gender disaggregated way. The PROCARE-I project is expected to have a far impact ultimately contributing to preventing and reducing the prevalence of emotional disorders in the young. The outcomes of PROCARE-I will contribute to identifying and treating vulnerable adolescents at high risk for emotional mental at an early stage, before they incur personal, societal and economic cost. PROCARE-I will be culturally-adapted and implemented as a multicenter Randomized-Controlled Trial (RCT). PROCARE-I will be designed to be an acceptable, scalable, and sustainable indicated prevention program.
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of the Helfer Skin Tapping technique on pain, fear, and anxiety in children who received intramuscular injections. The research hypotheses are as follows: H0: There is no significant difference between the intervention group and the the control group in the mean score of the "Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale", "Child Fear Scale", and "Child Anxiety Scale-State" during and after the Helfer Skin Tapping technique. H1: During and after the Helfer Skin Tapping technique, the mean score of the "Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale", "Child Fear Scale", and "Child Anxiety Scale-State" is significantly lower in the intervention group compared to the control group.
The primary aim of the pilot study is to investigate the feasibility of conducting a randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing the effects of transdiagnostic and diagnosis-specific cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for patients with anxiety disorders in routine psychiatric outpatient care in Stockholm, Sweden. It is hypothesized that an RCT is feasible in terms of recruitment, retention, therapist competence and adherence to treatments, and that the treatments are well received by participants.
The purpose of this study is to develop, evaluate the acceptability/feasibility (Phase IA), and test (Phase IB) the effectiveness of a brief, integrated, single-session, computer-based, culturally adapted personalized feedback intervention (PFI) designed to enhance knowledge regarding adverse anxiety-alcohol interrelations, increase motivation and intention to reduce hazardous drinking, and reduce positive attitudes and intention regarding anxiety-related alcohol use among Latinx hazardous drinkers with anxiety.
Participants with Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) will use a digital therapeutic for 30 days, and will complete assessments measuring a broad range of anxiety and mood-related symptoms, with a focus on SAD symptoms, and metrics of functional impairment during this time. After the treatment period, participants will be followed at 6 month and 12 month after the completion of the study.
Objectives: Our study aimed to perform a Turkish validation study of the Child Drawing: Hospital (CD:H) Scale and evaluate the dental anxiety and pain experienced during the treatment by drawing. Study Design: Pediatric patients between the ages of 4-13 who applied to the Pediatric Dentistry Department between 2018-2020 were included in the study. Following the translation of the CD:H Scale into Turkish and linguistic-cultural validation, the behaviors of pediatric patients during treatment were evaluated with the Frankl Behavior Rating Scale, the pain they experienced during treatment with the Wong- Baker Face Rating Scale, and their anxiety levels were evaluated with the pictures drawn by the patients at the end of the treatment. The data were analyzed with Statistical Package for the Social Sciences v23, and the significance level was taken as p <0.05. Results: Within the scope of the scale's reliability-validity study, the Intra-Class Correlation Coefficient (ICC) was evaluated with test-retest consistency. For section A,B,C and total score reliability was found to be positive and strong level correlation. Dental anxiety of boys was higher than girls. Conclusions: The Turkish version of the CD:H Scale is a reliable and valid scale that can be used to evaluate the dental anxiety of Turkish pediatric patients.
The study will investigate whether a nociceptin receptor antagonist will normalize neural and behavioral processes of approach/avoidance decision-making in unmedicated individuals with major depressive disorder (MDD) and anxiety disorders. More specifically, the study aims to investigate dysregulation within (1) corticostriatal-midbrain circuitry and (2) nociceptin/orphanin FQ peptide and the nociceptin receptor (NOPR).
The purpose of the study is to examine the feasibility and potential efficacy of low-intensity focused ultrasound as a method of modulating amygdala function to promote improvements in symptoms of an affective disorder. Ultrasound is frequently and safely utilized for diagnostic purposes. In this study, the investigators will utilize magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and neuronavigation to target the left amygdala and apply ultrasound. This will be conducted once a day, 5 days a week, for 3 weeks. This will be an open-label, single-arm trial.
Introduction: The interruption of education within the scope of quarantine and isolation methods during the pandemic process has caused nursing students studying in clinical practice areas to be away from the clinic for a long time. This situation not only affected the anxiety levels of nursing students, but also caused them to feel inadequate and to experience stress. Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of emotional freedom technique on nursing students' styles of coping with anxiety and stress. Method:In this experimentally designed study with pretest-posttest control group, freedom of emotion technique will be applied to the experimental group for 4 sessions. In the pre-implementation phase and after the emotional freedom technique session, the state anxiety scale, coping styles scale, and subjective discomfort level scale will be applied.
