The aim of the present single-centered pre-post study is to assess the feasibility and to investigate the putative efficacy of an emotion-oriented group intervention for patients with psychosis. Patients with early psychosis in an inpatient unit receive a manualized group intervention focussing on emotional stability and emotion regulation (8 weekly sessions). Assessment will be performed at pre-therapy, post-therapy (after eight sessions and four weeks) and after a follow-up period of 12 weeks (8 weeks post therapy) and includes personal therapy goals and their realization, psychopathology, social functioning and emotion regulation skills as a putative mediator of change.
The study examines the effectiveness of a internet-based self-help-program called Selfapy for individuals who are experiencing mental stress. The main objective of the study is to investigate the extent to which Selfapy leads to a significant reduction in depressive symptoms. As this study is the first to evaluate the program Selfapy, also quality of life and acceptance of the program are evaluated. The study is conducted as a randomized-controlled trial with parallel assignment into three conditions. The groups were organized into one wait-list control group and two groups receiving access to Selfapy with different levels of guidance.
This study will explore the effects of the Injeti Self-Love Model intervention on adolescents challenged with low-self-esteem leading to self-harming, suicidal thoughts and suicidal attempts. This study will examine the promotion of self-esteem through the Injeti Self-Love Model as a safety measure against "poor behavioral habits" such as intentional self-harming, substance abuse, suicidal thinking and suicide attempt as means to cope. Study participation will include initial screening, self-assessment, occupational therapy self-esteem intervention of one session, with an individual follow-up, along with an interview, and finishing up with a one-month follow-up interview. The qualitative research is a methodology for investigating and considering the meaning individuals attribute to a significant human experience. The qualitative approach will be structured around a semi-structured interview initiated at the end of the second follow-up session and after 1-month follow-up.
International studies reveal high prevalence of eating disorders (ED) and mental health issues amongst professional dancers, and the Norwegian National Ballet's house previously (2005) reported a lifetime prevalence of ED by 50% amongst female ballet dancers. Mental health issues and ED have been acknowledged for several years in most sports; still the same do not apply to dance sports. The objective of this study is to improve the knowledge on prevalence of mental health issues in professional dancers and the corresponding awareness of such among dance teachers. Additional objectives are to evaluate the effect of an intervention aimed to improve knowledge on nutrition, recovery strategies and mental health literacy among professional dancers and their teachers.
Self-esteem group is a novel, manualised group programme designed for adolescent inpatients with eating disorders. Research questions: Does the self-esteem group improve self-esteem in adolescent inpatients with eating disorders? Are any changes in self-esteem maintained at 4 week follow-up after the group? Does eating disorder psychopathology improve more during admission for those who complete the self-esteem group compared to those who do not complete the group? Background: Low self-esteem has been established as a strong predictor of onset, maintenance and relapse in eating disorders. For patients with low self-esteem, change can be particularly difficult to achieve. The intensity of their low self-esteem leads them to strive to control their eating, weight and shape to gain a sense of self-worth and the pervasive negative view of themselves results in them seeing little or no prospect of recovery. This suggests treatment of low self-esteem is clinically and financially important. Studies have shown cognitive behavioural based group therapies improve self esteem in adults with eating disordersÍž however research including adolescents is limited. This research will contribute to the evidence base for self-esteem interventions in adolescents and inform the effectiveness of a new treatment. The research will be funded by Newbridge House, an inpatient unit for children and adolescents with eating disorders. Design: Inpatients at Newbridge House aged 11 - 18, fulfilling DSM-V criteria for an eating disorder will be recruited.Participants will be randomly allocated to a case or control group. Cases will receive the 6 week self-esteem group in addition to treatment as usual (TAU) and will be compared with controls who receive TAU. Both groups will complete a questionnaire pre-group, post-group and 4 weeks post-group. Admission and discharge questionnaires routinely collected will be examined to assess change in eating disorder psychopathology.
