Filter by:This study aims to investigate the effect of a brief psychotherapeutic treatment intervention based on ACT, aimed specifically at the vulnerable group of patients in psychiatric 24-hour care treated according to LPT. The study aims to investigate whether a brief number of therapeutic sessions according to ACT during inpatient care produce positive effects on personally relevant life areas for a diagnostically mixed group of patients in a psychiatric intensive care unit.
The objectives of this study are: Firstly, to investigate the association between psychiatric disorders and functional somatic disorder (FSD). Secondly, to investigate whether psychiatric disorders are risk factors for newly developed (incident) FSD after a 5-year follow-up period.
The aim of the study, which aimed to examine the effect of the Qigong relaxation exercise applied in psychiatry clinics on the level of anxiety, was planned as randomized controlled. Individuals will be divided into intervention and control groups. Before the application, the Personal Information Form and STAI Form I scale will be applied to the patients in the Intervention and Control group. Patients in the intervention group are expected to answer the STAI Form I scale after qigong relaxation exercises. It planned to apply the same forms as planned in the intervention group without any application in the control group. Personal Information Form and STAI Form I Scale will be filled by the patients in the form of self-report.
The principal objective of Tennessee Youth Prepared for Success is to pilot, implement, and test innovative adolescent pregnancy prevention strategies using a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to effectively educate youth on both abstinence and contraception with the goal of reducing youth pregnancies, births, and STIs. Tennessee Youth Prepared for Success will address Adulthood Preparation Subjects (APS) to promote youths' successful and healthy transition to adulthood; include a Positive Youth Development (PYD) approach to engage youth and provide positive influences and skill building opportunities; and implement activities/interventions within a trauma-informed approach to account for the mental health needs of those who have experienced maltreatment, abuse, or violence. The project's goals and principal and subordinate objectives align with the PREIS program's goals/objectives and purpose, including (1) targeting high-risk youth to prevent pregnancy and STIs, including HIV/AIDS; (2) rigorously evaluating interventions using an RCT; (3) manualizing/packaging curriculum; and (4) disseminating lessons learned, best practices, and relevant findings. Tennessee Youth Prepared for Success will serve 1,200 youth ages 14-19 in 9 primarily rural counties in East/Middle/West Tennessee, targeting high-risk/vulnerable youth, including rural youth, those residing in counties with high teen birth rates, and/or hard-to-reach youth (e.g., systems-involved).
After devastating natural events such as earthquakes, individuals with special needs experience much more difficulties. There is a limited number of studies investigating the impact of disasters on individuals with autism. Studies show that resilience and recovery of pre-disaster functioning in young people with autism largely depends on their immediate inclusion in routine, intensive rehabilitation programs and the stabilization of daily life routines as much as possible. Children with autism had to interrupt their education due to many reasons such as the destruction of special education centers due to the earthquake and the temporary or permanent relocation of families to different cities. The fact that individuals with autism stayed away from education after the earthquake caused parents' stress and anxiety levels to increase. Parent involvement, a standard intervention practice in ASD, shows that teaching intervention strategies to parents can improve children's outcomes and increase parental effectiveness. Researchers aim in this study is to investigate the effect of the online group-based parent-mediated intervention program on autism symptoms, the effect on behavioral problems and the effect on parental mental health of children with autism spectrum disorder whose education life was interrupted 8 months after the earthquake, who had major changes in their lives (such as loss of relatives, loss of health, work, home, anxiety, having to change cities ...). Online group-based intervention program ist designed to improve the interaction, play, speech and learning skills of children with autism symptoms, taking into account the earthquake conditions.
The purpose of this study is to understand how ketamine brings about dissociative symptoms.
This is an open phase III randomized clinical trial studying the superiority of management by immunomodulator treatment of psychiatric disorders (psychosis and bipolar disorders) for patients previously identified as carriers of autoimmunity such as as the presence of a pathogenic anti-glutamatergic NMDA receptor antibody (NMDAr-Ac).
Spatial navigation (SN) has been reported to be one of the first cognitive domains to be affected in Alzheimer's disease (AD), which occurs as a result of progressive neuropathology involving specific brain areas. Moreover, the epsilon 4 isoform of Apolipoprotein-E (APOE-ε4) has been associated with both sporadic and familial late-onset AD and patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) due to AD are more likely to progressively deteriorate. It will be investigated (i) whether amyloid-positive MCI patients and APOE-ε4 carriers show subtle changes of SN prior to the overt symptoms of AD disorientation, both in virtual and in naturalistic open-space tasks, and (ii) the effect of a combined treatment of computer-based and virtual reality tasks in those presenting such an impairment. Finally, (iii) threshold algorithms based on physiological parameters and gait analysis will be set up to support senior citizens at increased risk in maintaining their ability to independently navigate urban environments. Different types of navigational guidance will be examined on a sample of 76 older adults by the AppleGame, and the Detour Navigation Test-modified version. It is expected that patients with MCI due to AD and APOE-ε4 carriers show reduced SN performances than individuals with subjective cognitive impairment and healthy controls in the experimental tasks, with potential improvements after cognitive rehabilitation. Altered SN performances of individuals at increased risk to develop AD may inform future advanced technological applications in providing valuable information on threshold algorithms based on physiological parameters and gait analysis during elders' traveling to unfamiliar locations.
The main objective of this study is to carry out the psychometric validation of the PERMA-Profiler in a population representative of the general French population and in comparison with the reference questionnaire The PERMA-Profiler.
Despite decades of mounting single-case-design evidence for the efficacy of applied behavior analysis (ABA) and other approaches for the assessment and treatment of challenging behavior, an evidence-based comprehensive approach remains to exist. The current study will collect test the efficacy of a standardized manual for assessing and treating challenging behavior for individuals with severe and mild challenging behavior.
