Exercise combined with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for chronic pain: One ‐year follow‐up from a randomized controlled trial
ConclusionsThe study results showed no significant difference between the two groups for the primary outcome pain interference at 1-year follow-up. Future research could investigate factors that may predict and optimize outcomes from these types of intervention for people living with chronic pain.SignificanceFew previous randomized controlled trials investigating ACT for chronic pain have included long-term follow-up. This study found that Exercise combined with ACT was not superior to supervised exercise alone for reducing pain interference at 1-year follow-up. Further research is necessary to identify key processes of th...

Loneliness and the COVID-19 pandemic: implications for practice
Br J Nurs. 2024 Feb 8;33(3):110-114. doi: 10.12968/bjon.2024.33.3.110.ABSTRACTLoneliness is a complex universal human experience. A variety of evidence indicates that prolonged loneliness can have a negative effect on an individual's long-term physical and psychological outcomes. Empirical evidence and systematic reviews show strong links between loneliness and ill health, particularly cardiovascular disease and mental health. Loneliness is increasing in frequency and severity. The issue of loneliness has been part of UK Government mandates since 2018; however, evidence suggests that, due to the pandemic, the need to focus...

Cognitive behavioural therapy without medication for schizophrenia
CONCLUSIONS: This review is the first attempt to systematically synthesise the evidence about CBT delivered without medication to people with schizophrenia. The limited number of studies and low to very low certainty of the evidence prevented any strong conclusions. An important limitation in the available studies was that participants in the CBT without medication group (about 35% on average) received antipsychotic treatment, highlighting the challenges of this approach. Further high-quality RCTs are needed to provide additional data on the feasibility and efficacy of CBT without antipsychotics.PMID:38323679 | PMC:PMC1084...

Addressing psychosomatic symptom distress with mindfulness-based cognitive therapy in somatic symptom disorder: mediating effects of self-compassion and alexithymia
ConclusionBoth alleviation of alexithymia and improvement in self-compassion play a mediating role in the reduction of psychosomatic distress in SSD patients following an MBCT program. Improvement in self-compassion might be a subsequent outcome of MBCT-related alleviation of alexithymia. (Source: Frontiers in Psychiatry)

Investigation of the Turkish Psychometric Properties of Bedtime Procrastination and While-in-Bed Procrastination Scales for Adolescents
This study was carried out to examine the psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the Bedtime Procrastination and While-in-Bed Procrastination Scales for adolescents. This methodological study was conducted with 348 adolescents aged 12 –18 between March and April 2023. Cronbach’s alpha and omega coefficients were employed to test the psychometric properties, split-half and item-total correlation methods to test the reliability, and confirmatory factor analysis to test the construct validity of the scales. It was determined tha t the Bedtime Procrastination scale Cronbach’s alpha and omega coefficients of th...

The Persian Tolerance of Uncontrollability Questionnaire and its Correlates: Reliability, Validity, and Measurement Invariance Across Gender
AbstractMany situations in life remain beyond an individual ’s control. Despite this, little research has focused on individual differences in tolerance of uncontrollability. The purpose of the present study was to translate and validate a Persian version of the Tolerance of Uncontrollability Questionnaire (TOUQ). The scale was translated from English to P ersian and administered to 441 Iranian Farsi-speaking participants from the general population (females = 65%; mean age = 26.26 years [SD ± 7.36]). The Persian version of the TOUQ demonstrated excellent reliability and internal validity. The structure of t...

Breaking the Chain: The Role of Irrational Thinking in Our Fear of War and Death
AbstractThis paper sought to investigate the validity of a mediation model, where we hypothesized that the four irrational evaluations postulated by the Rational-Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) theory (demandingness, awfulizing, low frustration tolerance, and global evaluation) would mediate the relationship between perceived risk of war and death anxiety. A sample of 158 Romanian participants completed online self-report measures, namely the Death Anxiety Scale, The Attitudes and Beliefs Scale, and the Risk Perception Scale. Mediation analyses were employed to assess the validity of the model. Results confirmed that the r...

Cognitive behavioral therapy versus compassion focused therapy for adult patients with eating disorders with and without childhood trauma: A randomized controlled trial in an intensive treatment setting
CONCLUSION: While both CBT and CFT-E resulted in significant reductions in eating pathology, CFT-E showed superior maintenance of benefits for patients with a history of childhood trauma at one-year follow-up, underlining the necessity of tailored interventions for specific patient subgroups.PMID:38310672 | DOI:10.1016/j.brat.2024.104480 (Source: Behaviour Research and Therapy)
