"The early bird catches the worm"-Prediction of early response and its importance for treatment outcome in a naturalistic setting of cognitive behaviour therapy

A total of 1677 people across four countries (United States, the Philippines, China and Saudi Arabia) participated in the study. Data analysis relied on multigroup confirmatory factor analysis and assessments of internal consistency.

Family functioning of adolescents with restrictive eating disorders with or without nonsuicidal self-injury
This study examines the family functioning perceptions of 80 families with adolescents experiencing RED, comparing those with and without NSSI, alongside a control group, utilising the FACES-IV assessment. The study also aims to compare the triadic (adolescent-mother-father) perception of family functioning in the three groups. The results reveal distinct family dynamics in adolescents with both RED and NSSI, marked by problematic functioning perceptions from all family members and low parental agreement. A further understanding of the family functioning of adolescents with RED with NSSI can help clinicians in defining the...

A systematic review of the relationship between generic and specific metacognitive beliefs and emotion dysregulation: A metacognitive model of emotion dysregulation
Clin Psychol Psychother. 2024 Jan-Feb;31(1):e2961. doi: 10.1002/cpp.2961.ABSTRACTAlthough a probable association between metacognitive beliefs (also termed 'metacognitions') and emotion dysregulation has been suggested in the literature, the evidence is still sparse and inconclusive. The current study aims to present a comprehensive evaluation of the literature examining the association between metacognitive beliefs and emotion dysregulation. In accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) criteria, a search was conducted on PubMed and Ebsco. A manual search of reference lists...

A phenomenological comparison of auditory hallucinations between borderline personality disorder and schizophrenia: A systematic review
CONCLUSION: In order to prevent misdiagnosis of AHs in BPD, the DSM-5 may need to acknowledge the broader and more frequent occurrence of psychosis symptoms in BPD clients. Such clarification may enhance diagnostic practices and facilitate more timely access to treatment. There is also a need to develop and trial psychological interventions that explicitly target AHs in BPD.PMID:38358078 | DOI:10.1002/cpp.2958 (Source: Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy)

Brief individual experiential schema therapy in adult outpatients with cluster C personality disorders: Does it work?
This study investigated the effectiveness of brief individual experiential schema therapy (ST) in 12 adult outpatients with cluster C personality disorders (PD) using randomised multiple baseline design. Waitlist period was followed by five explorative sessions, 18 experiential ST sessions, two treatment follow-up (FU) booster sessions and a 6-month FU assessment. Overall well-being (ORS), behavioural treatment goals and negative core beliefs were assessed 60-91 times, global symptomatic distress (BSI) six times. PD severity (SCID-5-PD) was pre-post-analysed. Randomisation and non-parametric tests showed large significant ...

Distress tolerance and lifetime frequency of non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI): A systematic review and meta-analysis
Clin Psychol Psychother. 2024 Jan-Feb;31(1):e2957. doi: 10.1002/cpp.2957.ABSTRACTNSSI has recently been recognized as a significant health issue given its documented association with psychopathology and across a broad spectrum of psychiatric disorders. It has been found that individuals experiencing heightened emotions, which is referred to as an emotional cascade, are more likely to engage in self-injury behaviour due to low levels of distress tolerance (DT). The current meta-analysis using PRISMA guidelines sought to quantify the strength of the association between DT and lifetime frequency of NSSI using 22 eligible stud...
