Abstract:
Background: The meta-cognitive model of rumination is a theoretical model regarding the relationship between rumination and depression. Although meta-cognitive therapy for rumination was established based on this model, insufficient longitudinal studies addressing this model have been conducted. Moreover, the uncontrollability of rumination, suggested to be driven by negative meta-beliefs about rumination, has not been examined using this meta-cognitive model. Aims: We longitudinally examined the meta-cognitive model and its relationship with uncontrollability of rumination and depressive symptoms. Method: Undergraduate students (n = 117) were asked to complete two measurements (with a 6-month gap between them) of positive and negative meta-beliefs about rumination, causal analysis, understanding, uncontrollability of rumination and depression. Results: Cross-lagged effect modelling revealed that positive meta-beliefs predicted high causal analytic rumination. However, the results did not support the causal analytic and understanding aspects of how rumination predicted negative meta-beliefs. Negative meta-beliefs predicted high depressive symptoms, and depressive symptoms predicted high negative meta-beliefs. Negative meta-beliefs predicted high uncontrollability of rumination, whereas uncontrollability of rumination did not predict depressive symptoms. Conclusions: The results partially supported the meta-cognitive model. The prediction of depressive symptoms on negative meta-beliefs suggests that depression-related cognition might be involved in increasing negative meta-beliefs, rather than the repetitive causal analytic and understanding aspects of rumination. In line with meta-cognitive therapy, negative meta-beliefs could be a target for treating depression.

Abstract:
<p><strong>Background. </strong>Sixty-eight per cent of women and 57% of men with mental illness are parents. There is increasing evidence of adverse psychosocial impact of parental mental illness on their children. However, among children whose parents have mental illness, the potential contribution of the children’s beliefs about mental illness to their own emotional distress is still poorly understood.</p><p><strong>Aim. </strong>To explore among children whose parents have serious mental illness, the relationship between the children’s beliefs about mental illness and their own depressive symptoms.</p><p><strong>Methodology. </strong>We conducted an interview-administered questionnaire survey of 67 Nigerian children whose parents were psychiatric inpatients. The children’s beliefs about mental illness were explored with five questions – two of which embedded threat-related beliefs. Their depressive symptoms were assessed with the Short Mood and Feelings Questionnaire (SMFQ) (Cronbach alpha 0.91). Based on stigma theory, we hypothesised that among this cohort, the children who hold threat-related beliefs about people with mental illness would report statistically significantly more depressive symptoms than those without similar beliefs. </p><p><strong>Results. </strong>The mean age (standard deviation (SD)) of the children was 13.3 (2.8) years, and 38% were males. Twenty-four per cent of the children believed mental illness is infectious. In line with our hypothesis, those holding this belief had statistically significantly more depressive symptoms compared with those without similar beliefs (<em>p</em>=0.001). Fifty-seven per cent of the children believed that people with mental illness are dangerous. However, contrary to our hypothesis, this belief was not associated with increased depressive symptoms (<em>p</em>=0.2). Multiple regression showed that statistically significant predictors of increased emotional symptoms were ‘belief that mental illness is infectious’ and younger age. The model explained 39.8% of the variance in SMFQ.</p><p><strong>Conclusion. </strong>In this and similar settings, psycho-education for children whose parents have serious mental illness should explore whether the children believe that mental illness is infectious. Providing reassurance to children holding such beliefs could reduce their risk of psychological distress.</p>

Abstract:
This study aimed to identify differences in the personal themes in negative self or core beliefs that might be characteristic of high levels of eating disorder symptoms when compared to high levels of depressive symptoms in those with an eating disorder and/or depression. Differences between putative diagnostic subgroups were also examined. One hundred and ninety-three participants completed self-report measures of negative self-beliefs, eating, and depressive symptoms. Putative diagnostic subgroups were also identified, including an eating disorder group that also had high levels of depressive symptomatology and in most cases a diagnosis of depression. Six themes descriptive of the self corresponding to 6 robust factors were identified and provisionally labeled isolated, repelled by self, self-dislike, lacking in warmth, childlike, and highly organized. Multiple regression analyses indicated that, in the whole sample, eating disorder symptoms were uniquely predicted by subscales reflective of repelled by self and lacking in warmth, though depressive symptoms were uniquely predicted by subscales measuring isolation and self-dislike. Between-group analyses indicated that high scores on isolation, self-dislike, and lacking in warmth were typical of both eating-disordered and depressed-only diagnostic groups when compared to the control group, though only the eating-disordered group (also high in depressive symptoms and “diagnosis” of depression) also had high scores on repelled by self. The findings indicate that eating disorder and depressive symptoms are associated with some potentially important differences in self-beliefs. Putative diagnostic subgroups may also differ in these beliefs. The findings further indicate that psychometrically sound themes exist in the core or negative self-beliefs associated with eating disorder and depressive symptoms. Implications of the findings for cognitive therapy with eating disorders and depression are briefly considered, and the limitations and implications of the diagnostic subgroups identified here are discussed.

Abstract:
156 Background: As cancer survivors live longer and many die from their comorbidities rather than from cancer, it is important to understand how a cancer diagnosis may impact survivors’ perception of their other comorbidities. In addition, cancer is associated with increased risk for depression. We aim to assess the relationship between depressive symptoms and illness beliefs in cancer survivors with diabetes (DM). Methods: We recruited 75 patients with DM who were newly diagnosed with early-stage breast, prostate, lung or colon cancer. Depressive symptoms were assessed with the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale; illness beliefs were assessed with the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire. Illness belief questions were dichotomized at the median, and non-parametric analyses were used to assess the relationship between depressive symptom scores and presence of illness beliefs. Results: Seventy-five patients with DM and a new diagnosis of cancer were enrolled. The average age was 61.8 years, 47% were male, 45% had breast cancer, 42% prostate cancer, 8% colon cancer, and 4% had lung cancer. Patients who perceived having more control over their DM had lower depression scores (median 26 vs. 20, p = 0.01). Furthermore, those who did not feel their health depended on their DM medications at present (median score 21 vs. 26, p = 0.007) had lower depression scores. Regarding beliefs about cancer, those who reported being less concerned about cancer had lower depression scores (median 21 vs. 25, p = 0.01). Additionally, patients who did not feel that cancer affected their lives much (median 19 vs. 26, p = 0.001) or who did not report that cancer affected them emotionally (median 19 vs. 26, p = 0.001) had lower depression scores. Patients’ perception of their control over their cancer was not associated with depression scores. Conclusions: Cancer survivors with higher depression scores report being more affected by cancer and simultaneously feel they have less control over DM. It is important to support survivors emotionally while increasing their self-efficacy over their comorbidity management to improve survivors’ health outcomes.

Abstract:
Introduction: Cancer, diabetes, and heart diseases are frequent causes of depression and anxiety. The study explored the metacognitive beliefs manifested by chronically ill patients and the presence of depressive or anxiety symptoms and the predictive role of metacognition in both. Methods: A total of 254 chronically ill patients participated in the study. The Metacognitive Questionnaire was used to measure the patients’ metacognitive beliefs, whereas the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale was applied to evaluate their psychopathological symptoms. A correlation analysis was performed to explore the relationships between metacognition and psychopathological symptoms. Regression analyses were conducted to examine the predictive role of metacognition in anxiety and depression. Results: The Negative Beliefs about Uncontrollability and Danger scale correlated with both anxiety and depression scales, and the Cognitive Confidence scale correlated with the depression scale. Linear regression analyses indicated that metacognitive beliefs were responsible for 32.2% of the variance of anxiety symptoms among all the chronically ill. Metacognitive beliefs accounted for 48.8% of the variance in anxiety symptoms and 36.6% in depressive symptoms among diabetes patients. Conclusions: There are specific correlations between psychopathological symptoms and metacognition among chronically ill patients. Metacognitions have a moderate role in developing and sustaining anxiety and depressive symptoms.

Abstract:
In light of Rational-Emotive Theory, this study was undertaken to determine the pattern of irrational beliefs underlying Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). A total of 126 subjects (50 males, 76 females) volunteered to participate. Patients clinically diagnosed with MDD (unipolar type) and a control group of non-depressed patients were solicited from the inpatient and outpatient facilities of several Ottawa and Montreal hospitals; the normal control group comprised students and civil servants. The subjects completed questionnaires to measure irrational belief endorsement (IBT, RBI) and symptom severity (STAI, BDI) and to verify the depression diganosis (IDD). Multivariate statistics were used to determine the pattern of beliefs which best discriminates between the MDD group, the psychiatric control group, and the normal controls. Discriminant analysis of the IBT revealed a pattern of four irrational beliefs generally known as demand for approval, frustration reactivity, anxious overconcern, and helplessness over past. The implications of such findings for RET theory are discussed.

Abstract:
Caregiver support is an important factor in recovery from depression among older patients. We examined whether caregivers' perceptions regarding patients' ability to control depressive symptoms were related to depression recovery. Depression treatment, demographics, number of depressive symptoms, and health were controlled. The sample comprised 51 geriatric psychiatry inpatients who met DSM-IV criteria for major depression and who had a primary caregiver. Depression was assessed at both admission and discharge. Caregivers were asked to indicate whether they believed their patient-relatives could control their depressive symptoms. At discharge, 33 patients (64.7%) were “remitted” and 18 (35.3%) were “nonremitted.” Multivariate analyses indicated that receiving electroconvulsive treatment, having fewer depressive symptoms caregivers perceived to be within patient control, and being female predicted depression remission at discharge. This study highlights the important relationship between family dynamics and course of depression.

Abstract:
Introduction: Individual differences in beliefs about the controllability of emotions are associated with a range of psychosocial outcomes, including depressive symptoms. Less is known, however, about factors contributing to individual differences in these beliefs. The current study examined prospective associations between negative emotionality (NE) and implicit beliefs about emotions, as well as the indirect effect of NE on depressive symptoms through implicit beliefs about emotions. Methods: In a sample of children and adolescents, NE was assessed at baseline, implicit beliefs about emotions were assessed 18 months later, and depressive symptoms were assessed at baseline and 36 months later. Results: NE was associated with implicit beliefs about emotions, and an indirect effect of NE on depressive symptoms through implicit beliefs about emotions was observed. Discussion: NE represents a salient dispositional vulnerability factor contributing to individual differences in implicit beliefs about emotions, with implications for the development of depressive symptoms in youth.

Abstract:
The present study explored age differences in the expression of depression. Such differences were quite apparent. Among 118 young adults and 107 community-residing elderly individuals, it was found that in the young adult groups, cognitive belief factors labeled “externality/control” and “dependency/emotionality” were associated with both affective and cognitive aspects of depression, but not somatic depressive symptoms over and above the influence of sociodemographic factors. In contrast, among older adults, a cognitive belief factor labeled “cognitive-emotional rigidity/dependency” was uniquely associated with both affective and somatic depressive symptoms. Additionally, a second cognitive factor, labeled “adaptation/internal control” defined in terms of the absence of irrational thinking about adaptation and control, was negatively related to somatic depressive symptoms. For each sample, poorer health was associated with greater depressive symptomatology. While these findings generally tend to support a cognitive view of depression in adulthood, they also underscore the importance of cognitions that may be adaptive which mitigate distress among older persons.

Abstract:
Spiritual well-being is a well-established predictor of mental health, yet the potential mechanisms of this association are relatively unexplored. We examined the influence of spirituality, including religious and existential well-being, on depressive symptoms, and the potential mediating effect of optimism and pessimism, in a sample of 66 African American female suicide attempters. Participants were recruited from a large, urban hospital and completed the Spiritual Well-Being Scale, Life Orientation Test-Revised, and the Beck Depression Inventory-II. The association between spiritual well-being and depressive symptoms was mediated indirectly through both optimism and pessimism; greater religious and existential well-being was related to more optimism, and less pessimism and, in turn, to fewer depressive symptoms. Historically, spiritual well-being has been important to the African American community, and its beneficial effects on mental health might be explained, in part, by their effect on cognitive-emotional functioning.

Abstract:
This thesis consists of three papers: a literature review, an empirical paper and a reflective account. The literature review was conducted to examine the associations between causal beliefs in depression and preferences for and attitudes towards different interventions. Ten papers were included which all used clinical samples. Papers were critiqued for quality, and findings suggest that belief in the biological model is associated with a preference for and more favourable attitudes towards biological interventions such as medication. The association between causal beliefs and preferences for different psychological interventions is less clear, but findings suggest that people prefer therapeutic modalities that ‘match’ their causal beliefs. The empirical paper investigated predictors of self-stigma and prognostic pessimism in 184 people experiencing depression. It was hypothesised that depression severity, self-efficacy and biological causal beliefs would be significant predictors in a regression analysis. However, only depression severity and self-efficacy predicted self-stigma, and there were no significant predictors found of prognostic pessimism. The data for prognostic pessimism violated normality. Due to this violation and because the sample was mainly White British women, generalisability of findings is limited. The last paper contains the authors reflections on the research process, with research decisions outlined and critiqued, including topic choice, participants, data collection and measure choice. It focuses not only on the difficulties but also the positive aspects of the research process. Reflections are considered in relation to the authors epistemological position, and to the more over-arching issues that arise when conducting research in clinical psychology.

Abstract:
Goal linking is the tendency to link achievement or failure of low level goals (e.g. weight loss) with achievement or failure of higher level goals (e.g. happiness). This study explored whether people with major depression respond to daily hassles with rumination, as a function of their tendency to goal link, as previously observed by McIntosh and Martin (1992, 1995) in students with lower mood. A between subjects design facilitated assessment of goal linking, rumination, daily hassles and life events, using self-report measures in interview, with 22 adults with major depression, compared with samples of 25 adults with other psychological difficulties and 23 adults with no depression history. Participants with major depression reported significantly greater rumination, goal linking and daily hassles than both comparison groups, and greater impact of more major life events, than never depressed controls. Rumination was found to be more strongly related to group differences in major depression than goal linking. Primary findings support some role for goal linking in depressive rumination. However, while participants with major depression responded to daily hassles with rumination, it was not as a function of their tendency to goal link. Results tentatively suggest that linking is a consequence of rumination rather than a cause.

Abstract:
Adolescent depression is a significant problem in New Zealand. The Youth2000 survey indicated that around 9.0% of male and 18% of female secondary school students reported feeling depressed. School Guidance Counsellors (SGCs) are ideally placed to identify, assess and treat these adolescents. However, SGCs are rarely included in mental health research. I investigated the beliefs, knowledge and practice of SGCs around adolescent depression. There were three stages to the research. Stage One used a qualitative approach, with nine focus groups held in Auckland in 2004. Fifty-two SGCs participated. I developed a thematic map from the results that emerged. Category One ���Beliefs and Knowledge��� had three themes: causes, negative connotations and different presentations. Category Two ���Practice��� had five themes: assessment, referrals, effective therapy, systems and training needs. Stage Two comprised a questionnaire based on these results. This investigated SGCs��� knowledge of depression, assessment, training and referral decisions. It also requested demographic data. In 2005, this was sent to 455 SGCs throughout New Zealand. Two hundred and forty SGCs (53%) responded. Eighty percent did not believe that their initial training equipped them adequately to work with mild to moderately depressed adolescents. SGCs wanted further training, especially appropriate strategies. They requested information based on research and presented by clinicians. In Stage Three, I developed a training workshop on assessment, referral and treatment of adolescent depression, tailored to SGCs��� needs. Thirty-nine SGCs attended workshops in 2006. Evaluations were positive and indicated that this training was appropriate and useful. SGCs would recommend the workshop to others. Strengths and weaknesses of the study are discussed and recommendations made about future developments. There is emphasis on the need for policy to encourage collaboration between SGCs and Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), education and health, training providers and the New Zealand Association of Counsellors. As SGCs are placed outside both teaching and health, they need to be adequately trained and receive regular professional development, supervision and consultation around depression. CAMHS are well placed to offer training to SGCs based on identified needs and evidence-based practice.

Abstract:
The hegemonic meaning of depression as a universal mental illness embodied by an individualized subject is propped up by psychiatry’s clinical gaze. Cinemas of Therapeutic Activism turns to the work of contemporary filmmakers who express a shared concern for mental health under global capitalism to explore how else depression can be perceived. In taking their critical visions as intercessors for thought, Adam Szymanski proposes a thoroughly relational understanding of depression attentive to eventful, collective and contingent qualities of subjectivity. What emerges is a melancholy aesthetics attuned to the existential contours and political stakes of health. Cinemas of Therapeutic Activism adventurously builds affinities across the lines of national, linguistic and cultural difference. The films of Angela Schanelec, Kelly Reichardt, Apichatpong Weerasethakul and Kanakan Balintagos are grouped together for the first time, constituting a polystylistic common front of artist-physicians who live, work, and create on the belief that life can be more liveable.

Abstract:
Psycho-cybernetics offers valuable insights for individuals dealing with depression. By understanding the power of self-image and beliefs, individuals can begin to address the negative thinking patterns that contribute to their depressive symptoms. The concept of the vicious cycle in depression, where negative thoughts reinforce negative emotions, can be interrupted by utilizing cognitive reframing techniques. Through cognitive reframing, individuals can challenge and replace negative beliefs with more positive and realistic ones, breaking the self-fulfilling prophecy of depression. Mental rehearsal and visualization techniques can help individuals reshape their self-image and cultivate a more positive outlook. However, it’s important to note that psycho-cybernetics should not replace professional help. Seeking therapy and support from mental health professionals is essential for comprehensive and effective treatment of depression. By integrating psycho-cybernetics principles with evidence-based therapies, individuals can empower themselves to reframe their thinking patterns, cultivate a positive self-image, and work toward improved mental well-being.

Abstract:
Harsh self criticism and habitual use of unhelpful thinking patterns can create the context for depressive symptoms in middle-aged and older adults. This workbook module of Treating Later-Life Depression: A Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Approach promotes self-compassion and cognitive reappraisal skills that are consistent with clients’ personal values and strengths. Easy-to-read, large-print Learn pages are selected by behavioral health providers to help aging clients understand the role of unhelpful thinking habits in depression, replace self-criticism with self-compassionate thoughts and actions, as well as build cognitive reappraisal skills. Practice forms are provided for aging clients’ use between sessions to develop, practice and use these skills. Clinicians must attend to the ways that cultural and generational norms and beliefs influence clients’ responses to specific cognitive therapy strategies. Practitioners are encouraged to apply strategies that are responsive to the needs of culturally diverse aging clients.

Abstract:
Decreases in the frequency of positive activities, along with poor problem solving skills, play especially strong roles in perpetuating depressive symptoms in middle-aged and older adults. For that reason, increasing daily rewarding, meaningful, and valued activities is a priority in treatment for depression. This workbook module of Treating Later-Life Depression: A Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Approach promotes the application of behavioral activation and problem-solving strategies that are consistent with clients’ personal values and strengths. Easy-to-read, large-print Learn pages are selected by behavioral health providers to help aging clients understand the role of activities in depression, engage in positive daily activities, and apply the steps of problem solving to anticipate and remove barriers. Practice forms are provided for clients’ use between sessions to develop and use skills. Clinicians must attend to the ways that cultural and generational norms and beliefs influence clients’ attitudes and choice of language used to describe rewarding and meaningful activities. Practitioners are encouraged to apply strategies that are responsive to the needs of culturally diverse aging clients.

Abstract:
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a highly effective intervention for severe major depression (American Psychiatric Association Committee on Electroconvulsive Therapy, 2001). ECT is most often used because pharmacotherapy has failed. In certain clinical situations, however, ECT is the initial treatment of choice. Ten to fifteen percent of patients with major depression fail to respond to antidepressants. Such outcomes may persist despite adequate treatment with multiple classes of antidepressant drugs (Rush et al., 2006) and other pharmacologic augmentation strategies (eg, the addition of lithium to an antidepressant). Eventually, social relationships and work performance decline as patients lose hope and other depressive symptoms worsen in intensity. ECT should be strongly considered for such patients because many may fully recover with it. Those with an episodic, rather than chronic, course of depressive disorder are most likely to respond. Patients with persistent suicidal intention or actions are often given ECT as primary treatment because it would be dangerous to undergo a potentially prolonged series of medication trials while the patient remained at risk of self-injury. Similarly, those with severe inanition, psychomotor retardation, and depressionrelated immobility are usually treated with ECT first, to avoid medical complications such as aspiration, atelectasis, pneumonia, other infections, decubitus ulcers, and venous thrombosis. In both of these classes of patients, ECT is much more likely than antidepressants to rapidly improve depressive symptoms. Although delusionally depressed patients may respond to a combination of an antidepressant and neuroleptic, they are more likely to respond to ECT and to do so rapidly. The mental suffering associated with depressive delusions (eg, of hopelessness, criminality, bodily decay, or self-loathing) is often unbearable, and the patient’s response to such beliefs may make behavior impulsive and unpredictable. ECT is the treatment of choice to accelerate recovery and enhance patient safety. Catatonic patients almost always respond quickly to ECT and should be treated with it early. Although a minority of catatonics have a sustained positive response to benzodiazepines, this improvement is usually transient, and ECT is then required. Other medications are rarely effective. Retarded and agitated forms of catatonia are dangerous for the patient, and effective treatment with ECT should not be delayed.

Abstract:
Abstract Rural life has frequently been depicted as slower, healthier, and less stressful than its urban counterpart. In reality, farming is one of the most dangerous occupations1 and stress associated with farm life affects men, women, and children. Because the majority of farms in the United States are family owned,2 the stress associated with farm life is predicated by the constant threat of occupational risks and hazards even as families share life experiences. In fact, the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health3 has identified stress in occupational workers as a serious problem.

Abstract:
Although LGC modeling is gaining popularity in some disciplines, it has not been widely employed in social-epidemiological studies. This paper presents an introduction to the latent growth curve (LGC) technique within a structural equation modelling (SEM) framework as a powerful tool to analyze change in individual attributes over time (e.g., behaviors, attitudes, beliefs, and health) and potential correlates of such changes. The rationale for LGC analysis and subsequent elaboration of this statistical approach are discussed. For illustrations, Mplus (version 8, Muthén & Muthén, 2012) software and depressive symptoms as the individual outcomes attribute are used. The limitations of traditional analytical methods are also addressed. Particularly, the chapter considers socio-contextual factors as correlates of change in the outcomes variable, and examines the dynamic systematic relationship with the socioeconomic factors (however, these correlates can also be factors other than social-context).

Abstract:
There exists no universally recognized profile for the “terrorist personality.” Researchers continue to investigate relevant psychological constructs for lone-actor terrorists in an attempt to provide a scientifically informed basis for predicting vulnerability to radicalization and risk for subsequent acts of violence. While documentation of psychometrically based evaluations of lone-actor terrorists has proved exceptionally difficult to obtain, results obtained primarily from open sources suggest that certain emotional, behavioral, and other correlates are increasingly identifiable in this population. In particular, such conditions and situations as depressive disorders; narcissism; extreme, overvalued beliefs; deficits in social cognition; psychosis; and thwarted personal goals continue to surface as potentially relevant factors. This chapter examines the current state of psychometrics in relation to lone-actor terrorism with attention to key diagnostic entities, psychological evaluation methodologies, proven psychometric instruments, the interference of deception and lack of effort, and prospects for the further development of targeted assessment protocols.

Abstract:
This study compared cultural variances in the understanding of depression, help seeking and management strategies between Anglo-Australians and Sri Lankan immigrants with depression, one of the fastest growing immigrant communities in Australia. From 2012-2104 Sri Lankan (n=18) and Anglo-Australians (n=30) participants living with depression took part in semi-structured interviews. Participant eligibility was verified by significant levels of depression on the DSM IV and K10. Sri Lankans and Anglo-Australians expressed overlap in the experience in symptoms, yet differences in beliefs related to the etiology of depression; in general, Sri Lankan migrants attributed depressive symptoms to ongoing social problems whereas Anglos-Australians generally conceptualized depression as a biomedical disorder. These disparities in illness beliefs influenced help seeking trajectories; Sri Lankans favored self-directed behavioral interventions, and in many cases were hesitant take medication to address mental health issues as this was seen as an admission of “madness.” In contrast early intervention via primary care was common for Anglo-Australians. However, while a significant proportion of Anglo-Australians would use pharmaceutical interventions, many were also prepared to try complementary and alternative therapies. Across both groups stigma still presents a significant barrier to help-seeking, however stigma was particularly noted in the Sri Lankan community. Preliminary analyses suggest important differences in help-seeking strategies that may have implications for improving access to mental health services and the development of culturally salient interventions in the Australian context to cater for the growing Sri Lankan migrant community. The outcomes of this study will provide greater insight into cultural variances of depression and help seeking of Sri Lankan immigrants. These results may further provide valuable information that can be used more broadly in countries receiving Sri Lankan, and possibly other South Asian migrants.

Abstract:
Background: Depression is common among adolescents that have been victims of bullying at school or through social media. However, numerous cases of bullying are never reported. Several studies have shown that suicidal ideation is associated with depression in adolescents with bullying. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of bullying on depression in adolescents in Surakarta using Health Belief Model. Subjects and Method: A cross sectional study was carried out in Surakarta, Central Java, in December 2019. A sample of 250 adolescents was selected for this study randomly. The dependent variable was depression. The independent variables were bullying, perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, and self-efficacy. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multiple logistic regression. Results: Depression increased with bullying (OR= 3.5; 95% CI= 1.70 to 7.25; p= 0.001), strong perceived susceptibility (OR= 2.86; 95% CI= 1.32 to 6.19; p= 0.008), strong perceived severity (OR= 2.65; 95% CI= 1.20 to 5.88; p= 0.016), and weak self-efficacy (OR= 5.26; 95% CI= 2.49 to 11.09; p<0.001). Conclusion: Depression increases with bullying, strong perceived susceptibility, strong perceived severity, and weak self-efficacy.

Abstract:
Introduction: Debates around the correlation between neurophysiological processes and religious habits have gained ground in the research in neuroscience. Objective: To evaluate the impact of religious practices on brain physiology and correlate such behaviors and neuroimaging. Design and setting: It’s a systematic review without metanalysis in PUBMED database. Method: Data carried out in the period 2009 and 2020. Descriptors used: “neural correlates of religious, mystical experience” and “religious belief and neuroimaging”, combined with the Boolean operator “and”. Results: It was noted that the belief is associated with a greater signal in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex, important place for self-representation, emotional associations, reward and goal-directed behavior. Neuroimaging indicated regions associated with these behaviors: pre-cuneiform, anterior insula, ventral striatum, anterior cingulate cortex and posterior medial cortex; nonreligious belief, conversely, registers more signs of memory in the left cerebral hemisphere. Additionally, there is an association between absence of religious practices and depression, anxiety, psychosis, pain disorders; it may have a beneficial impact on the pathogenesis and treatment of these conditions. Conclusion: Although it can be said that the impact exists, more research on the topic is necessary for interventions to have scientific plausibility. The results suggest brain regions involved in religious experience and the phenomenon must be perceived from a multidimensional perspective.

Full text
Abstract:
Introduction: Weight-based oppression is a widespread phenomenon in Western countries. External sources of weight-based oppression include exposure to stigmatizing or exclusionary social, cultural, economic, political and built environments, weight bias and discrimination, and weight-based bullying and violence. Internal sources of weight-based oppression are the internalized negative attitudes, values and beliefs people hold about body weight. Weight-based oppression is associated with a range of psychological, physiological and behavioral harms such as depression, anxiety, disordered eating, hypertension, allostatic load, cortisol reactivity and oxidative stress. Research on weight-based oppression is largely absent from the Arab region. The objectives of the study were to examine the internalized attitudes, values and beliefs related to body weight, and experiences of external weight based oppression, including teasing, bullying, stigmatization, and discrimination among staff, faculty and students at Qatar University. Methods: We conducted in-depth semi-structured interviews with 29 participants (25 females) aged 18 to 53 years who were recruited using convenience and snowball sampling. Thematic analysis was used to identify major themes. Results: Internal and external weight-based oppression were experienced by all participants and regarded as so common in Arabic culture as to be normative. There were five major themes that related to the various types of weight based oppression experiences, internalized feelings about weight based oppression, and the timing, source and impact of weight based oppression. Conclusion: Weight-based oppression in the Arab region is an important and unrecognized public health issue. Programs should be developed to reduce exposure to weightbased oppression in all sectors. Reducing teasing, bullying and negative experiences related to body weight in childhood should be a public health priority.

Abstract:
Background and aims. Typical cognitive biases (irrational beliefs, cognitive distortions and erroneous perceptions) and high levels of impulsivity have been systematically reported among individuals with problem gambling. The objective of this study is to examine the role of the chronological age into the relationships between cognitive biases and impulsivity with the gambling disorder (GD) profile during adulthood. Methods. The sample analysed in this study included n=209 patients into the range age 18-77 yrs-old, recruited at the Pathological Gambling Outpatients Unit of the Bellvitge University Hospital (Barcelona). Results. Path-analysis showed a mediational link between chronological age, the presence of a comorbid depression or anxiety disorder, and the level of GD symptoms. Orthogonal polynomial contrasts showed a positive quadratic trend between the individuals’ age and cognitive distortions severity (higher impairing irrational beliefs obtained among younger and older patients, compared to middle-age patients). The sensation-seeking level showed a negative linear trend with the age: the older the patient’s age, the lower the score in this impulsivity domain. Among younger age patients gambling severity correlated only with cognitive bias levels, while during middle age patients gambling severity correlated with both cognitive bias and impulsivity levels. Within older age group fewer and poorer associations were found between cognitive bias and impulsivity with the accumulated debts due to the gambling activity, and the bets per gambling-episode. Conclusion. The results of this study could help in the development of reliable/valid assessment tools for GD, as well as for the design of precise/effective intervention plans and guidelines. These should include the patients’ age, the cognitive style, and the impulsivity levels, with the aim of providing precise and accurate tools to manage gambling problems.

Full text
Abstract:
Introduction: Syringomyelia or hydromyelia is a rare neurological disorder of cerebrospinal fluid circulation caused by a pathologically dilated central spinal canal, manifested as dissociated sensory loss, chronic pain and motor deficits. The pathogenesis is not completely understood, usually being a diagnostic challenge. The authors describe a case of syringomyelia in a ten-year-boy associated with depression, as a challenging condition, emphasizing diagnostic difficulties and the multidisciplinary approach. Clinical case: The patient was admitted to the emergency room with pain, gait abnormality, arthralgia and dysesthesia in limbs with subacute onset. Neurological examination revealed tetraparesis with hypoesthesia and hypopallesthesia in limbs, associated with emotional lability. Feelings of worthlessness and abandonment in psychiatric evaluation resulted in diagnosis of depression. For persistent pain assessment, a magnetic resonance imaging of the spinal cord showed dilatation of the central canal, compatible with hydromyelia. To establish if the sensitive symptoms were secondary to damage of spinothalamic pathway, a laser evoked potential was performed, demonstrating integrity of Aδ-fibers, excluding, therefore, impairment of the nociceptive pathways only in the segments analyzed. In view of the findings, the patient was discharged from the hospital, still with some gait impairment, taking selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors for depression and carbamazepine for chronic pain with progressive improvement. Conclusion: This report explores the complexity of diagnosis of hydromyelia in children, which are difficult to examine accurately, particularly on sensitive examination, whose objective alteration in this case made us consider this rare disease. We believe that rigorous clinical follow-up, with multidisciplinary intervention, is extremely important to achieve the best response to treatment.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: The primary objective of this scoping review is to understand the extent and type of evidence in relation to moral injury in social work staff. The secondary objective is to establish how moral injury has been defined in the literature in the context of social work. The review question is: what is currently known about moral injury in social work staff? Background: Moral injury is the lasting psychological, spiritual and social harm caused by committing, experiencing or observing transgressions of deeply held moral values, beliefs and expectations (Haight et al., 2016). The concept of moral injury was developed and subsequently researched with populations of US veterans. Core symptomatic features of moral injury are guilt, shame, spiritual/existential conflict, and a loss of trust in self, others, and/or transcendental ultimate beings (Jinkerson, 2016). Secondary symptomatic features include depression, anxiety, anger, re-experiencing the moral conflict, self-harm, and social problems (Jinkerson, 2016).

Röders, Jonathan. Research Brief: Moral Injury and Repair Among Formerly Armed Actors. Trust After Betrayal, June 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.59498/38489.

Full text
Abstract:
This research brief focuses on moral injury (MI) among formerly armed actors (FAAs), the cognitive and emotional response that may occur in a person who has witnessed, perpetrated, or failed to prevent acts that go against their moral or ethical beliefs. Unlike post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), MI is not widely recognised as a distinct clinical condition, yet it poses significant obstacles to the mental well-being and successful (re)integration of FAAs. The brief explores how morally injurious events challenge healthy self-perceptions and clash with societal expectations, leading to a severe cognitive dissonance in affected FAAs. It examines the impact of MI on military veterans and non-state armed actors, and highlights its potential psychological consequences such as social withdrawal, substance abuse, depression and violent behaviour. The research brief argues that MI deserves attention in psychosocial counseling within (re)integration programs for FAAs. It thus proposes a framework for integrating moral repair into existing FAA mental health treatment programmes, recognising the importance of addressing chronic and intrusive feelings of shame, guilt, and remorse resulting from MI.
