Filter by:We will perform a randomized sham-controlled trial of aiTBS to an anxiosomatic circuit in patients with anxiety-related disorders (i.e., panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder). 80 participants with an anxiety-related disorder (defined below) will receive 50 active or sham TMS treatments over 5 days (following the SAINT protocol, which is FDA-cleared for MDD. The primary outcome will be the BAI, with a modified recall window to reflect the short treatment interval. Participants randomized to sham will be offered an open-label crossover extension.
Participants will receive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) at a random location in the left prefrontal cortex, excluding sites that are potentially unsafe. Extensive behavioral testing will be conducted to determine which behaviors are modulated by stimulating which circuits.
This study will develop and test whether personalized profiles of children with Disruptive Behaviour Disorder (DBD) and their parents based on important psychological, emotional, and neuropsychological indicators predict their response to child cognitive behavioral treatment and Behavioral Parent Training.
Disruptive behavioral disorders are common in early childhood, affecting up to 15% of preschool-aged children. Behavioral parent training programs are a first-line evidence-based treatment for child disruptive behaviors. There is evidence showing that (a) these programs are effective in reducing disruptive behavior and improving long-term outcomes, and (b) there is an excellent return on investment for early intervention. Nevertheless, there is limited availability of behavioral parent training programs, particularly in rural settings, due to shortages of trained clinicians. Thus, there is a pressing need for expanding the mental healthcare workforce in rural/underserved areas. The study will involve an established parent-based behavioral intervention (First Approach Skills Training for Behavior; or FAST-B) with added pilot component incorporating parents who have previously been through parent behavioral management training programs as Peer Supports.
This study is being done to learn whether a telehealth intervention called "Internet-Based Parent Child Interaction Therapy," or I-PCIT," can help parents improve the child's behavior if the child currently or previously went through cancer treatment. Parents who choose to be in this study will complete a survey to help researchers figure out if the parent is eligible for the larger study. If a parent is eligible for the larger study and chooses to participate, if so, the participants will be randomly assigned to either receive the I-PCIT intervention now or to be on a waitlist and begin I-PCIT in 5-6 months. The whole study consists of completing I-PCIT sessions with a clinician and completing 3-4 follow-up surveys after the initial screener survey.
This study contributes new evidence for the identification of adolescent TRD and sheds light on differing pathophysiologies by delineating distinct plasma metabolic profiles between adolescent TRD and FEDN-MDD.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess whether a brief case management intervention aimed at promoting personal recovery and reducing the negative effects of coercion among people involuntarily admitted to a psychiatric hospital would be well accepted by them, practically feasible and useful. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is the case management intervention acceptable and feasible? - What are the preliminary effects of the case management intervention on patients' personal recovery and its sub-dimensions, as well as on their level of perceived coercion and their global satisfaction with hospital care? Participants will be asked to take part in: - the five sessions of the case management intervention; - two evaluation sessions (pre and post-intervention); - a final in-depth semi-structured interview (optional).
The aim of this randomised clinical trial is to evaluate the short and longterm effects of a transdiagnostic mentalization-based intervention (Lighthouse MBT Parenting Program) compared to care as usal (CAU) for parents with a mental disorder in adult mental health service.
The RAINBOW study is a fully remote study focused on understanding and treating behavior problems in young children with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). The first goal is to enroll a group of 100 children with TSC between the ages of 3 and 6 years old, with and without problem behaviors, to learn about how best to measure behavioral challenges in TSC and how common these behaviors are during this age period. All families will get feedback from the clinical assessments collected. Eligible children who are experiencing behavior problems will be invited to enroll in a pilot clinical trial of internet-based Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (or PCIT), which is meant to help parents better manage their children's challenging behaviors. Adaptations to PCIT are incorporated to suit the needs of TSC children and families. Some participants will be randomly selected to receive the intervention immediately and others after a 6-month delay, but all families will receive the same intervention. Intervention sessions occur on a weekly basis for up to 20 weeks. Follow-up assessments, which include play interactions, parent interviews, and questionnaires occur about 3 and 6 months after the first visit. The delayed treatment group has an extra brief assessment about 12 months from the initial visit. This study will increase what is known about the types of behavior problems that come up during preschool age in TSC and how best to help children and families with TSC who are experiencing these problems.
This study aims to investigate acceptability and feasibility of a new version of the Imaginator intervention, Imaginator 2.0, targeting self-harm behaviour in young people aged 12-25 under mental health services in the UK. Following an initial proof-of-concept study of Imaginator (Di Simplicio et al., 2020), we co-designed a new version of the app that supports consolidation and practice of the techniques learnt in therapy, and adapted the protocol to be extended to younger adolescents. Imaginator 2.0 uses 'functional imagery training', training in individuals to develop and use functional (that is, helpful) mental images to support an alternative behaviour instead of self-harm. Mental imagery is the process of picturing something in the mind, and mental images have strong emotional and motivational characteristics. Functional Imagery Training (FIT) within Imaginator helps young people imagine adaptive behaviours as an alternative to self-harm when dealing with distressing emotions.
