Filter by:According to the World Health Organization (WHO), "Sexual health is a state of physical, emotional, mental and social well-being in relation to sexuality, not merely the absence of disease, dysfunction or of infirmity. Sexual health requires a positive and respectful approach to sexuality and sexual relationships [...]". The main objective is to show that a training intervention intended for psychiatric care teams and targeted on the question of the impact of psychiatric disorders and psychotropic drugs on the sexuality of young people, increases the proportion of young people with whom the question of sexual health is discussed (in connection with psychiatric disorders and, if applicable, with the taking of psychotropic treatment, while they are hospitalized for a psychiatric disorder in the clinics of the FSEF and receive, or not, psychotropic treatment ).
This observational study assesses whether the use of the QPGE has an impact on the rates of isolation and mechanical restraint in adult psychiatric admission units. It is supplemented by a qualitative survey that will collect the experience of caregivers using the QPGE.
This project is a study funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development to develop and pilot test an adapted parenting intervention to decrease excessive/inappropriate screen media use in young children with externalizing behavior problems.
Many children and youth with autism spectrum disorder have high levels of emotional and behavioural problems. Parents play a powerful role in supporting their children's well-being. Research also shows that certain factors (e.g., parent mental health, access to services) can affect autistic children's well-being in important ways. Despite this, autism services rarely ask about, or act upon, the factors that we know affect child and family well-being. We are addressing this problem by testing a program called the Family Check-Up within a large autism service. The Family Check-Up is a strengths-based, family-centred program aimed at improving child well-being by working with parents to identify their family's unique strengths and challenges, set goals for change, strengthen positive parenting, and connect to needed supports.
Innovative treatments are urgently needed for severe behavioural problems (SBPs) in adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Although a synthetic cannabinoid, nabilone may be a plausible and safe alternative to treat SBP, safety and efficacy of nabilone in people with IDD has never been evaluated. The investigators propose to conduct this first-ever Phase I pre-pilot open-label clinical trial to collect data on the tolerability and safety profile of nabilone in adults with IDD, and explore changes in SBP pre- and post-treatment. The results will inform a next-stage pilot randomized controlled trial, followed by a fully powered trial eventually.
we will assess dysphonic children as regard presence of behavioral abnormalities and then receive voice therapy
The proposed study aims to investigate the effects of children's in-home engagement with a biofeedback video game-based intervention on children's in-school behaviors. For the proposed study, families with no prior Mightier exposure will engage in online gameplay for eight weeks. Mightier will recruit families through social media and clinical settings, then Mightier will randomly assign participants to one of two groups: a group in which the child participant is encouraged to play Mightier games with biofeedback elements 45 or more minutes a week, broken into 3 or more sessions a week soon after baseline data have been collected, and a group in which the child participant receives Mightier and is invited to play Mightier games with biofeedback elements after all study baseline and follow-up data have been collected. The investigators will aim to enroll 20 parent-child dyads in each group. Specific Aims and Hypotheses: 1. Demonstrate that child engagement in Mightier biofeedback video games is correlated to child improvement in school behaviors. The investigators hypothesize that teachers of child participants will report reductions in child school behavior challenges after 8 weeks of child Mightier gameplay. 2. Demonstrate that child engagement in Mightier biofeedback video games is correlated to child improvement in at-home behaviors and general improvement in emotion regulation. The investigators hypothesize that parents of child participants will report a reduction in child behavior challenges and improvements in child emotion regulation after 8 weeks of child Mightier gameplay.
Our study aims to lay the basis for a predictive modeling service for postoperative complications and prolonged hospital stay in patients suffering from psychiatric diseases undergoing colorectal surgery. Furthermore, we aim to investigate the impact of preoperative Risk factors, psychiatric and psychosomatic diseases on the outcomes of colorectal surgery and the complications after colorectal surgeries like anastomosis insufficiency via predictive modeling techniques The service mentioned above will be publicly available as a web-based application
In this pilot study, the effect of a group intervention targeting self-criticism in adolescents in a clinical child- and adolescent psychiatric outpatient setting will be examined using a single-case experimental design (AB). Participants will be randomized to multiple baseline with weekly measures. Our primary outcomes, measured weekly, are self-criticism, nonsuicidal self-injury and symptoms of depression and anxiety, as well as an individually chosen behavior driven by self-criticism. Secondary outcomes are self-compassion, psychological flexibility, quality of life and functioning. In addition to the weekly administered questionnaires, before and after measures, and 3- and 6-month follow-up will be collected. After the treatment, participants will also be interviewed about their experiences of targeting self-criticism.
Background: As the most common setting where youth access behavioral health services, the education sector frequently employs training and follow-up consultation as cornerstone implementation strategies to promote the uptake and use of evidence-based practices (EBPs), which are often insufficient to produce desired implementation outcomes (e.g., intervention fidelity) and changes in youth behavioral health outcomes (e.g., reduced externalizing behaviors). There is a need for theoretically-informed pre-implementation enhancement strategies (PIES) that increase the yield of training and follow-up consultation. Specifically, social-cognitive theory explicates principles to inform the design of strategy content and specific mechanisms of behavior change, such as intentions to implement (ITI), to target via a PIES that increase provider to more active implementation strategies. Methods: This triple-blind randomized controlled trial preliminarily examined the efficacy of a pragmatic PIES (SC-PIES) to improve the implementation of universal EBPs in the education sector. Participants were randomly assigned to the treatment (PIES) or active control condition (meeting with administrators). The investigators assessed participants' ITI, intervention fidelity, and youth behavioral health outcome before, immediately after, and six-week following treatment.
