Mindfulness-based interventions for body image dissatisfaction among clinical population: A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: MBIs appear to be promising interventions in reducing BID among the clinical population. However, findings should be considered cautiously due to the possible publication bias, high heterogeneity and fewer available studies.PMID:38097499 | DOI:10.1111/bjhp.12710 (Source: British Journal of Health Psychology)

Interrelatedness of women's health-behaviour cognitions: A dyadic study of female family members on carrying heavy loads during pregnancy in Nepal
CONCLUSION: Female Nepali family members' cognitions about carrying heavy loads during pregnancy and postpartum are interrelated. Including female family members in interventions to help women manage their reproductive health in low-resource populations seems promising. These novel findings add to the growing body of research indicating the importance of including a dyadic perspective when understanding and changing health behaviour.PMID:38092566 | DOI:10.1111/bjhp.12709 (Source: British Journal of Health Psychology)

Attentional bias in psoriasis: The role of processing time and emotional valence
CONCLUSION: Rather than showing large and generalized AB effects as predicted by previous accounts, our results tentatively suggest that AB in psoriasis is restricted to situations where participants have ample processing time and threat words are easily distinguishable from control words on the basis of emotional valence. The pattern of results suggests that attentional bias in psoriasis is best characterized as a relatively slow strategic process.PMID:38082501 | DOI:10.1111/bjhp.12712 (Source: British Journal of Health Psychology)
