The purpose of this study is to explore a new stimulation target and protocol for the treatment of depressive episode in adolescents with bipolar disorder through the repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS) under neuronavigation, and verify whether there is abnormal functional connectivity between the emotion-related brain area orbital frontal lobe (OFC) and the primary visual cortex(V1) during the depressive episode, which will contribute to further understand the relevant neural pathway and mechanism.
The facial emotion recognition is a basic social skill for successful social interactions. Several meta-analyses and recent studies found impairments of the perception of facial emotions in patients with euthymic bipolar disorder. Few studies compared recognition of facial emotions impairments during euthymia in patients with bipolar disorder type 1 and 2. These studies included low population samples (N<60). There were discrepancies in results of these studies. Szanto suggested that facial emotion recognition impairments were correlated with suicidal risk and social isolation. These impairments should be taking into account regarding psycho-social treatments in patients with bipolar disorder. This study aims to evaluate facial emotion recognition in patients with bipolar I and II disorders compared to healthy controls, using the facial emotion recognition test (TREF). The objective of the present study is to compare TREF scores in a group of patients with bipolar 1, a group of patients with bipolar 2 disorder and a group with healthy controls. In addition, the investigators will investigate the relationships between TREF scores and levels of self-esteem and mental well-being.

Eligible participants will be enrolled and have an 8-week running intervention three times each week. The study hypothesizes that adolescents with Psychiatric disorders that are experiencing depressive symptoms will participate in a supported running intervention.
The primary aim of this project is to test if OCOsense glasses can function as a digital phenotyping tool derived from behavioural and physiological signals related to facial expression and motion recorded using the glasses.
Family-focused therapy (FFT) is a comprehensive therapy approach applied to individuals and their families. In the present study, the researchers aimed to investigate the effects of family-focused therapy (FFT) in the early stages of psychotic disorder and bipolar disorder, regarding the psychiatric symptomatology, family communication skills, coping capacities, family burden and quality of life. A total of 34 young people diagnosed with bipolar disorder (BD) and 17 psychotic disorders (PD) will be included in the study.
The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate some outcome parameters at the time of enrollment (T0), during the treatment (T1 and T2) and at the end (T3) of the subjects who will have carried out an individual counseling intervention or mental coaching. The aim is to determine the incidence of depression, trait anxiety, state anxiety, sleep disorders, resilience, defense mechanisms, distress caused by stressful events in a sample of subjects affected by Bipolar Disorder.
The aim of this study is to: Investigate the effect of applying physical exercises program on social functioning, alexithymia and sense of coherence among patients with bipolar disorders Research Hypotheses - Clients who participated in physical exercises program will exhibit better social functioning and sense of coherence than the control group. - Clients who participated in physical exercises program will exhibit less alexithymia than the control group.
This study aims to: • Determine the effect of implementing Dialectical Behavior Therapy on emotion regulation difficulties, distress tolerance, and social functioning among patients with bipolar disorder. RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS Patients with bipolar disorder who are exposed to Dialectical Behavior Therapy will exhibit lower emotion regulation difficulties, distress tolerance, and higher social functioning than those who are not exposed to such training.
