Experimental induction of peritraumatic dissociation: The role of negative affect and pain and their psychophysiological and neural correlates
Behav Res Ther. 2023 Mar 10;164:104289. doi: 10.1016/j.brat.2023.104289. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWhile research has elucidated processes underlying dissociative symptoms in patients with posttraumatic stress disorder, little is known about the circumstances under which trauma-related dissociation initially arises. To experimentally investigate causes and concomitants of peritraumatic dissociation, we subjected sixty-nine healthy women to aversive-audiovisual and painful-electrical stimulation in a 2(aversive/neutral film) x 2(pain/no pain) within-subject design while recording psychophysiological and fMRI-BOLD respon...

Omitting continuous memory recall from dual-task interventions does not reduce intervention effectiveness
Behav Res Ther. 2023 Mar 10;164:104291. doi: 10.1016/j.brat.2023.104291. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing a patient recalls a traumatic memory, while simultaneously performing a dual-task (e.g., making horizontal eye movements, tapping a pattern). Earlier lab studies show that increasing the load of a dual-task -and leaving fewer resources for memory recall-results in larger decreases in memory vividness and emotionality compared to control conditions. Therefore, we investigated whether it is necessary to continuously and deliberately recall the memory next to performing high t...

Behavioural and nondirective parent training for children with externalising disorders: First steps towards personalised treatment recommendations
Behav Res Ther. 2023 Apr;163:104271. doi: 10.1016/j.brat.2023.104271. Epub 2023 Feb 1.ABSTRACTFor children with externalising disorders, parent training programmes with different theoretical foundations are available. Currently, there is little knowledge concerning which programme should be recommended to a family based on their individual needs (e.g., single parenthood). The personalised advantage index (PAI) indicates the predicted treatment advantage of one treatment over another. The aim of the present study was to examine the usefulness of this score in providing individualised treatment recommendations. The analysis ...

Stuck in the past? Rumination-related memory integration
Behav Res Ther. 2023 Apr;163:104287. doi: 10.1016/j.brat.2023.104287. Epub 2023 Mar 2.ABSTRACTMemories connected to ruminative concerns repetitively capture attention, even in situations designed to alter them. However, recent research on memory updating suggests that memory for benign substitutes (e.g., reinterpretations) might be facilitated by integration with the ruminative memories. As a first approach, two experiments (Ns = 72) mimicked rumination-related memories with rumination-themed stimuli and an imagery task. College undergraduates screened for ruminative status first studied and imaged ruminative cue-target wo...

The role of general change mechanisms in sudden gains in the treatment of anorexia nervosa
This study investigated the role of general change mechanisms in body-weight related SGs in AN. Data were drawn from a randomized-controlled trial on cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and focal psychodynamic therapy (FPT) for adult outpatients with AN. Session-level data on the general change mechanisms 'clarification' (insight), 'mastery' (coping), and 'therapeutic relationship' were analyzed. Pre-gain sessions were compared with control (pre-pre-gain) sessions in 99 patients with a SG in body weight. Additionally, propensity score matching was used to compare data from pre-gain sessions from 44 patients with SG and data...

Self-guided online treatment of disturbed grief, posttraumatic stress, and depression in adults bereaved during the COVID-19 pandemic: A randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: The online CBT proved to be an effective intervention, reducing PCBD, PTSD, and depression symptoms. Pending replication of these findings, early online interventions may be widely implemented in practice to improve treatments for distressed bereaved people.PMID:36906949 | DOI:10.1016/j.brat.2023.104286 (Source: Behaviour Research and Therapy)
