Filter by:Within the Caring Universities project (study protocol VCWE- 2020-135 accepted by the VCWE), the investigators have developed a guided e-health programme (EsteemUp) designed to increase university students' self-esteem. With the current study, the investigators aim to examine the feasibility and acceptability of EsteemUp - with and without gamification elements - to improve students' self-esteem. Secondary goals are to gain insight into pre-test to post-test differences regarding self-esteem, symptoms of depression, anxiety and quality of life.
Eating disorders (ED) are severe but treatable conditions, but there are large margin for improvements in terms of efficacy and adherence. There is room to explore new treatment options who are either more capable to retain patients in therapy, more effective. Alternative their efficacy may match the ones of current available treatments but offer new options to ones that did not respond to available therapies. Here the investigators explored if a combination of CBT-focused plus Metacognitive Interpersonal Therapy (MIT) is an empirically supported therapy for personality disorders and could be a new viable treatment option for non-underweight ED. MIT targets some aspects of ED such as poor awareness of mental states and maladaptive interpersonal schemas that are not included in the transdiagnostic model underlying the most investigated empirically supported treatment for ED that is CBT-E. It is reasonable therefore that targeting these aspects of psychopathology can be a path to treatment adherence and effectiveness
Higher rates of depression are reported by autistic adolescents as compared to their non-autistic peers, which is problematic given adverse outcomes (e.g., negative self-esteem, lower academic performance) that are associated with depression. Despite the alarming rates of depression in autistic youth and associated safety concerns, few treatments have been developed. In this study, we investigate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of an autism-adapted group cognitive-behavioral treatment for autistic adolescents (11-17 years old; middle and high school) in a pilot, nonrandomized trial. Specifically, we aim to increase adolescents' perception and understanding of self, including autistic identity, in order to treat depression. Intervention design and implementation were guided by autistic self-advocates and parents.
Experiences of violence, from micro to physical aggressions, have a deleterious impact on mental health. According to the Minority Stress Theory, unfavorable social conditions (such as anticipated and experienced discrimination and internalized homophobia), mediated by resilience strategies, can lead to mental health or illness. Sexual and gender minorities (SGM) face stigma and discrimination aggravating multiple aspects of their lives: from school drop-out to halting health care access. SGM reveal avoiding medical assistance for fear of discrimination while health professionals disclose feeling unprepared to handle SGM health needs. There are two main challenges: 1) developing specific psychological interventions to reduce the impact of stigma and discrimination on SGM' mental health; and 2) training public health professionals to properly address SGM needs. Therefore, the present trial aims to assess the efficacy of a brief, self-guided, on-line, asynchronous and unsupervised psychological intervention in improving SGM' mental health.
The purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness of the Injeti Self-Esteem Model (ISEM) with a psychoeducational therapy intervention for improving self-esteem among university students. To explore the effectiveness of the ISEM (see Appendix A), investigators are utilizing a mixed method study design to acquire both quantitative and qualitative data to view effectiveness through measurable outcomes and personal experience. The intervention will involve a 1-hour session, which will include administration of the ISEM.
The study will investigate a CBT based treatment approach for low self-esteem among young adults.
This study will test a stigma reduction intervention with women living with HIV in Tanzania.
The purpose of this study is to explore the effects of endogenous opioids on self-esteem and attentional bias toward social cues. This is achieved by administering the drug naltrexone, which temporarily decreases endogenous opioid activity.
