Filter by:The effects of a psychological treatment, Mentalization-Based Treatment, was studied using a research protocol with patients with mood swings and impulsive behavior (borderline personality disorder).
This study aims to evaluate the coordinated implementation of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy in Community Mental Health Services in Ireland. There are three main objectives of the current study: - evaluate the effectiveness of DBT for adults and adolescents attending Community Mental Health Services in multiple sites across Ireland - conduct an economic evaluation of the coordinated implementation of DBT in community settings in Ireland - evaluate the implementation initiative by means of quantity, quality and experience of the coordinated implementation
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy for adults with Borderline Personality Disorder attending Community Mental Health Services in Cork, Ireland. The main objective of the current study is to determine if completion of a 12 month DBT programme is associated with improved outcomes in terms of borderline symptoms, anxiety, hopelessness, suicidal behaviour, depression and quality of life. A secondary objective includes assessing client progress across multiple time-points throughout the treatment.
Offspring of mothers with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) are at serious risk for developing mental illness at every stage of their life, and yet little is known about how this risk is transmitted. This study will leverage Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills as an experimental intervention to determine if preschool emotion regulation develops more rapidly as a result of improvements in mothers' ability to regulate her own emotions. The knowledge from this study will identify a modifiable pathway by which maternal BPD places offspring at risk for later mental disorders and will quantify how much improvement in children's ability to regulate their emotions can be achieved by treating mothers alone.
Participants with Borderline pathology (≥ 3 DSM-IV-criteria) receiving an inpatient Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) program completed a quality assurance questionnaire set assessing demographic information and pretreatment psychopathology during the days of their inpatient stay. Beyond that, changes of therapists were documented.
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is the most prevalent personality disorder in young community population whose most severe complication is suicide. Pharmacotherapy should not be used as the primary treatment for BPD as the benefits are unclear. Psychotherapy is the main treatment for people with BPD and the current recommendation is adapting available comprehensive treatments to develop easier and briefer therapies that are also effective. Iconic Therapy is an innovative option whose good clinical results should be validated on a clinical trial.
The investigators conducted a pre-post naturalistic study regarding changes observed associated with a 15-week course of an adapted form of dialectical behaviour therapy for adolescents. We measured frequency of self-harm prior to treatment and after treatment using the Self-Injurious Thoughts and Behaviors Interview. We also measured changes using the Suicide Ideation Questionnaire, Life Problems Inventory, Resiliency Scale for Children and Adolescents.
The purpose of the study is to test a standardized version of brief admission (BA) through randomized controlled trial (RCT). The main objective is to evaluate if BA can serve as a crisis management model for individuals with recurrent self-harm, including suicide attempts and at least three symptoms of Borderline Personality disorder. Participants will be allocated to BA + Treatment as Usual (TAU) or TAU.
N=15 mothers with Borderline Personality Disorder who had young children (aged 0-6 years) participated in a 12-week training program. To estimate the participants' impairment, parental stress and psychological distress were assessed before the training. After the training, participants and trainers were asked to provide feedback regarding the valuation of and the changes due to the training.
Emotion-related brain activation is made visible for patients via neurofeedback with the aim to improve discriminability of emotional arousal and emotion regulation. With functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), information of current brain activation is imaged and fed back to the patient via a visual display. Patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) usually hyper-activate brain regions associated with emotion. In this study, BPD patients will be provided with neurofeedback from the amygdala, which is crucial for the processing of emotions. The aim of the study is to observe, whether amygdala-neurofeedback would help BPD patients to improve emotion regulation. Compared to a control condition, improved brain self-regulation and emotion regulation is expected with three neurofeedback training sessions.
