NCT ID: NCT06200675 Completed - Self-Criticism Clinical Trials

Understanding and Intervening With State Shame and Self-criticism

Start date: October 17, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the momentary effects of a one-session intervention (compassion-based, logic-based, or placebo control) on individuals with high or low trait self-criticism. The main questions it aims to answer are: After a momentary shame induction, will a compassion-based intervention and a logic-based intervention both be more beneficial than a placebo control condition in terms of therapeutic outcomes? Will the compassion-based intervention most effectively increase soothing affect, state self-compassion, and state self-reassurance? Will the effects of these two interventions (1) differ as a function of the individual's trait self-criticism, and (2) will this be due to differing indirect effects of the intervention on safe/soothed feelings based on trait self-criticism? Participants will first complete a set of baseline measures. Two to seven days later, they will be randomly assigned to one of three study conditions (i.e., compassion-based, logic-based, placebo control) after a brief shame induction. Participants will be asked to complete a set of questionnaires both before and after the shame induction as well as post-intervention. This research will help us understand how best to intervene with the shame and self-criticism.

NCT ID: NCT05247190 Completed - Anxiety Clinical Trials

Treating Self-criticism in Adolescents: a Study With Single-case Experimental Design

Start date: December 3, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

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.

NCT ID: NCT05044715 Terminated - Compassion Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT)

Start date: August 29, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The proposed study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) that takes place at Brigham Young University's (BYU) Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS). The proposed study follows from the CAPS open trial which led to revisions of the compassion-focused therapy (CFT) protocol authored by Paul Gilbert. In essence, the study is taking existing evidence-based group treatments offered at CAPS, and comparing patient outcomes in a systematic manner. The investigators intend to replicate the improvement rates observed in the open trial with the revised CFT protocol and ascertain if outcomes are comparable to members who receive treatment-as-usual-TAU CAPS groups and those receiving CFT. Hypotheses: 1. Group members attending a 12-session CFT group will have higher levels of compassion and self-reassurance as well as lower levels of self-criticism (and self-hate), fears of compassion, shame, and psychiatric distress when compared to members attending the parallel TAU groups. 2. Amount of change in compassion, self-reassurance, self-criticism (and self-hate), fears of compassion, and shame will be comparable for CFT measures authored by Dr. Gilbert as measures developed by independent compassion researchers. 3. There will be comparable levels of change in general psychiatric distress, as measured by the Outcome Questionnaire -45 (OQ-45), in members attending CFT and TAU groups. However, there will be greater change in members attending CFT groups on measures of compassion. 4. CFT will lead to lower levels of internalized shame through the mechanisms of fear reduction and increases in the 3 flows of compassion.

NCT ID: NCT04978792 Active, not recruiting - Depression Clinical Trials

Does Cultivating Self-compassion Improve Resilience to Criticism and Improve Mental Health in Adults With ADHD?

Start date: September 23, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to investigate the effect that increasing levels of self-compassion may have on levels of perceived criticism, self-criticism, and mental health of adults with ADHD. A secondary aim of the study is to capture how feasible using an online self-guided self-compassion practice maybe with people with ADHD. Research Questions 1. Does a short self-guided self-compassion intervention increase levels of state and/or trait self-compassion in adults with ADHD over time? 2. Are changes in state and/or trait self-compassion associated with changes in levels of self-criticism or perceived criticism? 3. Are changes in state and/or trait self-compassion associated with improvements in mental health? 4. Are changes in mental health mediated by changes in self-criticism or perceived criticism?

NCT ID: NCT03504904 Completed - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Psychological Treatment Targeting Acceptance and Compassion in Chronic Pain Patients

Start date: November 13, 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This trial is a randomized controlled study aiming to investigate the effect of an 8-week internet-based intervention focused on acceptance and compassion or a wait-list control group. Primary treatments outcomes are Chronic Pain Acceptance Questionnaire (CPAQ), Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) and Pain Disability index (PDI). Secondary outcomes were Montgomery Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS-S), Anxiety sensitivity index (ASI), Quality of Life Inventory (QOLI), Multidimensional Pain Inventory (MPI) and Perseverative Thinking Questionnaire (PTQ). A six month follow-up was conducted. Findings showed significantly greater levels of acceptance (CPAQ), self-compassion (SCS) and reduction in activity limitation (PDI) measured with the primary outcomes for the treatment group after the intervention with effect sizes raging from small to moderate and these results were maintained at six-month follow-up.

NCT ID: NCT03488927 Completed - Depression Clinical Trials

Development and Pilot Trial of an Intervention to Reduce Disclosure Recipients Negative Social Reactions and Victims Psychological Distress and Problem Drinking

Start date: September 10, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate an intervention, Supporting Survivors and Self: An Intervention for Social Supports of Survivors of Partner Abuse and Sexual Aggression (SSS). SSS trains potential recipients of IPV or SA disclosure on the best methods of responding to a victim's disclosure. Consenting college students will be randomized into the SSS intervention or a wait-list control condition. Evaluation data will be multi-informant (i.e., data from both informal supports and victims) and multi-method (i.e., qualitative and quantitative). The investigators hypothesize that individuals receiving the SSS intervention, compared to individuals in the wait-list control condition, will provide less negative and more positive social reactions to victims' disclosure.
