Filter by:This study was carried out to investigate the relationship between pain, anxiety and fatigue and knee position sense, balance and dual task performance during menstrual cycle in females with Multiple Sclerosis (FwMS). In the neurologic group, especially in MS patients, it is well known that disease activity, course, and symptoms can be influenced by the menstrual cycle. Previous studies have reported that the fluctuations of estrogen and progesterone during the menstrual cycle may have an effect on several neurological functions. Menstrual-related symptomatology has primarily been studied as a physiological phenomenon. Increased neurological symptoms, physical disorders and behavioral changes have been reported just before or at the beginning of menstruation in FwMS. For all these reasons,investigators think that relationship between pain, anxiety and fatigue and knee position sense, balance and dual task performance during menstrual cycle in FwMS.
Smoking, anxiety and pain are clearly related conditions. We aimed to reveal the relationship between smoking cessation before surgery and preoperative anxiety, postoperative anxiety and pain in chronic smokers. METHODS ASA I-II group patients without chronic disease and history of drug use were included in the study. Those who did not want to participate in the study, patients with ASA III and above were excluded from the study. The patients were randomized into 2 groups: smokers (Group S, n = 60) and non-smokers (Group NS, n = 60). Group S was asked to quit smoking 2 weeks before the operation. Preoperative period and postoperative 0, 2, 4. And 6. hour Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) values, postop 0., 2., 4., 6. hour Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) values were recorded.
This project examines the development of psychological well-being in children and teachers through a 12- week forgiveness education program conducted in three conflict zones of the world, Northern Ireland, Israel/Palestine, and Taiwan. A 12-week forgiveness education program will be investigated in elementary schools in three conflict zones of the world, Northern Ireland, Israel/Palestine, and Taiwan. The responsibilities of the sub-team in each of the three research sites will be: - a. recruiting schools, assisting the teacher training before the forgiveness education program starts - b. shepherding teachers, doing the fidelity checks, administering the instruments and collecting data during the forgiveness education program. Once a school gives permission to be part of this study, the forgiveness curriculum will be implemented as a 12-week standard curriculum for the grade 5 (US equivalency) students. Teachers of the grade 5 classes will be trained to administer the program. Teachers, students and their parents must give the consent to take part in the measures of the study.
An online survey will be sent to healthcare workers (HCWs) in acute care hospitals to explore a variety of risk factors for negative psychological outcomes and levels of anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress symptoms using validated scales. It is important to understand the sources of negative psychological impact on HCWs during this COVID-19 pandemic before hospitals and organizations can address and develop support programs to mitigate the stresses experienced by healthcare workers. Addressing and supporting the needs of our HCWs will be paramount in this COVID-19 pandemic and future outbreaks.
In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the French government put in place home quarantine of the general population in order to limit the transmission of the virus. It is obvious that quarantine at home have a psychological impact which could worsened cardiovascular risk. Our aim is to assess risk factors for severe stress, anxiety or depression, during and after quarantine, as well as risk factors (including stress, anxiety or depression), in the worsening of cardiovascular risk.
In this study it is aimed to investigate the difference between the brain response to different urban environments in Singapore before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The datasets acquired from 34 healthy individuals as part of ongoing study "Effects of Landscape on the Brain" (IRB Ref #: S-18-352) will be used. These datasets consist of neurophysiological data recordings and behavioral self-reported measures and were collected before 20 of January 2020. The same experimental protocol would be followed, given that the data collection in the lab-setting would start after 7 th May 2020/whenever research activities are allowed to resume, and the outdoor sessions after the "circuit-breaker" period in Singapore is over.
Background: Infectious disease outbreaks have a psychological effect on the general population, and especially on health workers. Nurses who care for COVID-19 patients feel negative emotions, fear, and anxiety due to fatigue, discomfort, and helplessness due to high-intensity work. Objective: The study aims to evaluate the effect of EFT in the prevention of stress, anxiety, and burnout of nurses who have an important position in the fight against COVID-19. Design: Randomized controlled trial. Setting: COVID-19 department of a university hospital in Istanbul Province, Turkey. Participants: The sample of the study consisted of nurses working on 80 COVID-19 cases. Methods: The investigators will recruit nurses who care for the patient infected with COVID-19 randomly allocated them to the intervention (n = 40) and control (n = 40) groups. EFT will apply to the experimental group with online access. Data will collect using the Introductory Characteristics Form, the Subjective Discomfort Unit Scale, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and the Burnout Scale.
The Faculty of Translation and Interpreting of the University of Granada (UGR) has been leading the lists of the best faculties in this area in Spain and abroad for years. This has largely defined the profile of its students as high performing and, therefore, more prone to display maladaptive perfectionism which can lead to psychological distress (Rice et al 2006). However psychological distress is not something that only affects high profile students. Several studies report overall greater stress levels among undergraduate students when compared to general population levels (Ramasubramanian 2017). In fact, it is estimated that nearly 40 percent of university students experience mild to severe depressive symptoms with over 50 percent of students predicted to experience some level of depressive symptomatology during their college years (Pogrebtsova et al 2018: 46). Coping with cognitive and emotional challenges is therefore a desirable aim for every student on a daily bases. It is within this framework that CRAFTftiugr was born, a teaching innovation project, which is the result of the interaction among experts in mindfulness, lecturers and researchers in Translation and Interpreting and Experimental Psychology, students, Administrative and Support Staff and social stakeholders in the context of Higher Education. The main objective of the study is to test whether participating in a course on mindfulness-based techniques can improve students' cognitive, emotional and personal traits as well as academic performance. Together with this main purpose, the present study also aims to compare the effects of two mindfulness based programs, MBSR and CRAFT, on the students' ability to improve specific aspects of cognition, emotional intelligence, creativity or academic performance among others. Both mindfulness-based programs involve training sustained attention and an accepting and open attitude though they differ in several aspects of their methods, intention and aims. Drawing conclusions from the outcomes, a curriculum applied to Translation and Interpreting Studies will be designed aimed at preventing the development of psychological stress, perfectionism and other anxiety disorders, maximizing comfort in the Higher Education context and, ultimately, improving academic achievement.
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.
The purpose of this study is to assess the health and wellbeing of pregnant and recently pregnant women during the COVID-19 pandemic using an online survey.
