Sociotropy and video game playing: Massively multiplayer online role-playing games versus other games
DISCUSSION: MMORPG players reported higher psychological distress than players of other game genres. For all players, sociotropy, rather than autonomy, was found to be a predictor of social anxiety symptoms and IGD intensity. Sociotropy and depression explained IGD intensity only for MMORPG players and not for players of other game genres. The social dimension appears to be more prominent among MMORPG players and could be one of the main personality traits predicting this specific internet gaming disorder. The treatment implications for internet gaming disorder are discussed.PMID:38580529 | DOI:10.1016/j.encep.2024.01.005 ...

Effectiveness of psychotherapy on dissociative symptoms in adult populations: A PRISMA systematic review
DISCUSSION: The conclusions of this work highlight three possible therapeutic orientations for reducing dissociative symptoms: (i) by reintegrating the dynamic subsystems, (ii) by treating the cognitive processes underlying dissociation, and (iii) by acting on the processes identified as common to the effectiveness of psychotherapy.PMID:38523025 | DOI:10.1016/j.encep.2024.01.001 (Source: L Encephale)

Link between neurodevelopmental disorders and suicidal risk in children
CONCLUSION: The observed frequency of traits indicative of neurodevelopmental disorders in our population was higher than that observed in the general population, without the presented symptoms being eligible for categorical diagnosis. Considering the dimensional aspects of neurodevelopmental symptoms would therefore enable better identification of children at suicidal risk and more tailored interventions to contribute to the prevention of suicide in children.PMID:38523026 | DOI:10.1016/j.encep.2023.12.002 (Source: L Encephale)

Parental involvement and adjustment during the diagnostic evaluation of autism spectrum disorder at two diagnostic centers
CONCLUSIONS: Several hypotheses may explain the lack of differences between the two groups, including that parents may not yet have been in a position to benefit from the procedure aimed at integrating them. Our suggestion is that professional interventions should focus on improving the child's autonomy and helping the parent to develop a satisfactory support network. Finally, parents' needs for the post-diagnosis phase should be given greater consideration, particularly in future research.PMID:38523027 | DOI:10.1016/j.encep.2024.01.002 (Source: L Encephale)

Disclosure of sexual abuse by adolescents treated in a psychiatry department
CONCLUSION: This is the first study in France on the reporting of sexual abuse after its disclosure by adolescents being treated in a psychiatry unit. Our results show that child sexual abuse is rarely reported and that health care professionals are far from being the first recipients of these disclosures. We recommend routine screening for sexual abuse in adolescent psychiatry units, improved training for staff receiving these disclosures, and consideration of how best to coordinate medical, social, and legal services for these adolescents.PMID:38523028 | DOI:10.1016/j.encep.2023.12.003 (Source: L Encephale)
