Abstract:
Strong efforts have recently been made in various therapeutic approaches to adapt their clinical procedures and become more suitable for working with healthy and high achieving persons. The main argument of this paper is that Personal Construct Psychology (PCP) stood for a coaching psychology long before the term ‘coaching’ gained popularity. Therefore, a move from Personal Construct Therapy (PCT) to Personal Construct Coaching (PCC) represents a move towards its roots, rather than adaptation to new market demands. In this paper, the main principles of PCC are elaborated and a general framework for practitioners is provided. The paper includes a discussion on key metaphors of the role of the coach and the coachee, the coaching relationship and the reconstruction as a coaching goal. Stages with supporting techniques in PCC are proposed as procedures for reconstruction of personal and organisational stories. In concluding reflections we contemplate upon the benefits of a personal construct psychology framework for coaching.

Abstract:
Personal construct theory has provided a model of psychosocial functioning in the elderly. This model analyzes the changing events construed by the elderly, the content of their constructs, the forms of their construing, and the outcomes of these changes for them. Personal construct theory has also provided a model of psychotherapy, describing the roles of the client and therapist, as well as the therapeutic relationship between them. This model has identified the major therapeutic movements that can occur for elderly clients. The two models and the therapeutic movements are illustrated here in a case study.

Abstract:
12 clients suffering from chronic tics participated in one of two treatment programs, either a behavioral group using competing response therapy or a group using Beck-style cognitive restructuring. A repertory grid based upon the personal construct psychology of George Kelly was administered to all clients before and after treatment. The grid comprised a set of elements made up of situations with high, medium, and low risk of eliciting tics, and constructs were derived from comparisons between them. Clients' ratings of the elements on the constructs were subjected to a principal components analysis using an INGRID program. Following treatment the total variation around construct means decreased in both groups but significantly more in the cognitive group, indicating a narrowing of the difference in their perceptions of situations which formerly indicated high and low risk of inducing tics.

AbstractAn account is given of an approach to group therapy for stuttering using Kelly's personal construct theory as a basis for exploring the understanding of stuttering and the process of change. All five clients who participated showed considerable improvement in fluency on the Riley Stuttering Severity Instrument. Although the improvement may be due to concurrent individual fluency therapy, feedback on the group sessions suggested that group therapy had a positive effect on personal behaviour and facilitated transfer and maintenance of speech fluency.

Having reliable and valid instruments to know the values in sports is key as a basis for promoting a practice with an ethical sense. The purpose of this study was to delimit the construct validity and reliability of the Questionnaire on Values in Team Sports with Physical Education teachers in training in Mexico. Based on the preliminary version of this questionnaire, it was administered to a sample of 1064 students of the Bachelor's Degree in Physical Education. Principal component factor analysis with Varimax rotation, used to delimit construct validity, led to the determination of 26 explicit values in collaboration-opposition sports. In terms of reliability, Cronbach's α coefficient gave an excellent result (.983). The study showed the presence of four factors: Respect for rules, Prosocial behavior, Personal and team success, and Personal development and fulfillment. These results offer psychometric qualities that allow us to scientifically approach the knowledge of the value systems of the people participating in collaboration-opposition sports that orient their training towards the specific field of Physical Education.

Abstract:
Caregivers of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) can have a compromised quality of life due to caregiving burden and parenting stress. The Personal Wellbeing Index (PWI) is one of the instruments that measure the subjective wellbeing dimension. This study intended to explore this instrument’s construct validity and reliability and compare the subjective wellbeing among caregivers based on sociodemographic characteristics. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 53 caregivers of children with ASD recruited from occupational therapy clinics at Hospital Canselor Tuanku Muhriz (HCTM) and the Faculty of Health Sciences, UKM. The PWI has one global life satisfaction construct (1 item) and subjective wellbeing (8 items). The rating scale is anchored from 0 (no satisfaction at all) to 10 (completely satisfied). The statistical analysis indicated that the Malay version of PWI has acceptable unidimensionality (outer loadings >0.5 for all items), convergence validity (Average Variance Extracted (AVE)=0.5781), constructs validity (r=0.812, p<0.001), and construct reliability (.A=0.8864, .c=0.9046, a=0.8761). Marital status is significant in achieving life and personal relationships while health issues are significant only in personal health. The Malay version has good construct validity and reliability and can measure the subjective wellbeing of the caregivers of children with autism in Malaysia. The psychometric properties of the PWI Malay version can be further established with a larger sample size. In the future, a national norm of Malaysians’ wellbeing could be developed to interpret their wellbeing level.

Abstract:
The present intervention study tested the following hypothesis: the influence of one’s personal religious construct system is more intense and broader on therapy outcome if it stays central within the personality or becomes more central throughout psychotherapeutic in-treatment. The clinic concept included standard psychotherapy and religious contents. In a pre–post design, participants (N = 208) completed measures of centrality of religiosity and mental health. The hypothesis was tested by treating centrality of religiosity as a categorical variable with reference to a typological distinction. The results indicate that therapy outcome is statistically significantly higher for the groups in which the religious construct system stayed or became more central throughout psychotherapeutic treatment in comparison to the groups with a subordinate position of the religious construct system. These results suggest that the importance and intensity of an individual’s religiosity can play an important role in answering the question of whether religiosity is a resource for improved therapy outcome.

Abstract:
Abstract Background and Purpose. For physical therapist educators, professional behavior has been difficult to define. The purpose of this study was to test the construct validity of a model of professional behavior that was previously established through consensus and reported in the literature. Subjects and Methods. One hundred eighty-three students from 2 professional programs participated in the study. Using a self-administered questionnaire, students assessed how frequently they performed 152 behaviors on a 7-point Likert scale. Data were analyzed using principal components factor analysis. A Cronbach alpha was used to demonstrate internal consistency of items within each factor. Factor scores were submitted as dependent variables in analyses of variance to examine the differences in abilities according to amount of clinical education completed. Results. The analysis identified 7 factors that explained 52% of the variance. These factors were labeled Professionalism, Critical Thinking, Professional Development, Communication Management, Personal Balance, Interpersonal Skills, and Working Relationships. Cronbach alphas ranged from .81 to .95. Behaviors increased in frequency in 4 of the 7 areas identified according to the level of students' progress in the educational program. Discussion and Conclusion. The 7 factors corresponded fairly well to the 10 generic abilities previously identified. Although some behaviors may increase in frequency over the course of students' educational experience, others may be displayed at admission.

Abstract:
Katz' Index of ADL has been supplemented by five well-defined instrumental activities, namely cooking, washing, transportation, cleaning, and shopping. Eighty-five persons, mainly elderly, who had consecutively consulted a district occupational therapist, were assessed in their homes in order to study the reliability, the scalability, and the validity of the expanded index. The inter-observer reliability was high. The coefficient of scalability was well above the acceptance level, indicating construct validity. No person was dependent in personal ADL and totally independent in instrumental ADL. Persons who were dependent in both personal and instrumental ADL were older and lived in sheltered accommodation more often than persons who were dependent only in instrumental ADL, indicating external validity. This study shows that there was a cumulative relationship between certain well-defined instrumental activities and between personal and instrumental activities. This supplemented index can be useful for assessing and differentiating the need for personal assistance and homecare among disabled elderly people.

Abstract:
If you are a practicing yoga therapist or someone who has benefited from yoga therapy, you probably have little need for scientific research to validate your personal experience. However, you are also part of a rather elite group. The practice of yoga is largely dominated by Whites, women, those with higher education and incomes, and young and middle-aged adults who represent a very narrow segment of the population. The most compelling rationale for research on yoga therapy is to provide the evidence base required for its incorporation into our education and healthcare systems, thereby disseminating it more widely and equitably across the population. Scientific validation will boost the credibility of yoga therapy as a safe and cost-effective intervention. The time has come to construct a collaborative bridge between yoga therapy and scientific research.

Abstract:
Objective This pilot study examined the internal consistency, test—retest reliability, construct validity, and discriminant validity of the Activity Participation Assessment (APA) for school-age children in Korea. Methods The construct validity of the APA was first established by factor analysis on the response of 134 nondisabled children. Internal consistency was evaluated for each of the factors. A test—retest study was conducted on 22 nondisabled children. Discriminant validity was established by comparing the participation of 56 nondisabled children and 56 children with intellectual disabilities and examining sex differences of 61 boys and 61 girls. Results Analysis of the APA revealed five factors, which were labeled as instrumental activities of daily living (IADL), sports and outdoor activities, hobbies and school activities, social activities, and personal care. The factors showed acceptable levels of internal reliability (Cronbach's alpha = .63–.89). The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) for the five factors were all in the good range (ICC = .86–.92). We found statistically significant difference between nondisabled children and children with intellectual disabilities in five factors. We also found that girls participated in significantly more IADL, hobbies and school activities, and social activities. However, boys participated in significantly more sports and outdoor activities. Conclusion The APA shows good internal reliability, test—retest reliability, discriminant validity, and construct validity. However, evidence of psychometric properties was limited by a small sample size. Psychometric properties such as interrater reliability as well as concurrent validity and construct validity need to be tested using a larger sample size with representative demographics.

Personal growth initiative (PGI), an individual’s active and intentional engagement in the growth process, was originally developed as a potentially useful construct in therapy. Although it has repeatedly been related to psychological well-being and distress, few studies have examined PGI in clinical samples. The current study investigated the role of PGI in a sample of 295 clients at a community-serving training clinic. Data were collected at two time points. Confirmatory factor analyses supported a second-order model with four first-order PGI factors: Readiness for Change, Planfulness, Using Resources, and Intentional Behavior. Using cross-lagged panel analysis, PGI at Time 1 was found to predict psychological distress endorsed at Time 2 after accounting for distress at Time 1.

Abstract:
Introduction Depressive symptoms are common in patients with Fibromyalgia (FM), a chronic and disabling pain syndrome. Psychological interventions are mostly focused in negative thinking and behavioural activation. However, several studies suggest that personal identity is also affected by FM. Objectives We aimed to examine the effects of Personal Construct Therapy (PCT), an idiographic approach that emphasizes identity features and interpersonal construal, on depressive symptoms in women with FM. Methods In the context of a multicentre parallel randomized trial (Trial Registry: NCT02711020), 106 women with FM and presenting depressive symptoms were randomized either to either Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT; n = 55), taken as a gold standard comparison, or PCT (n = 51). In total, 69 patients completed the treatment and the six-month follow-up assessment (CBT = 32 and PCT = 37). Both treatments were applied on case formulation premises. Results Linear mixed-effects models were performed to compare depressive symptoms between treatment conditions. Anxiety and pain measures were treated as secondary outcomes. Participants in both conditions significantly reduced their levels of depression and anxiety as well as the impact of FM but no significant between treatment differences were found. Analysis of clinically significant change for depressive symptoms and pain was also similar between both conditions. Conclusions PCT resulted equally effective in the treatment of depressive symptoms in women with FM when compared with CBT, both offered in a modular format. Thus, PCT with tis focus on identity issues can be considered as an alternative treatment for these patients. Disclosure No significant relationships.

Abstract:
SummaryCognitive analytic therapy (CAT) was formalised in 1984 by Anthony Ryle. It facilitated the clinical integration of psychodynamic therapy and personal construct/cognitive psychology. It is a brief, user-friendly relational therapy, applicable to the wide range of psychological problems typically seen in public mental health settings. It has recently been included in national guidelines for the treatment of personality disorder in the National Health Service. CAT provides a coherent model of development and psychopathology, which centrally views the self as both socially formed and embedded. Owing to its core relational grounding, CAT is being increasingly applied to team contexts/systems, enabling a ‘common language’ for team formulation/practice. It is also being successfully delivered as a group therapy. This article describes the development and unique features of the CAT model, analyses the current evidence base and identifies potential future directions for the model.LEARNING OBJECTIVESBe able to describe the core principles of the CAT approach.Appreciate the evidence base for CAT.Understand CAT's place today among talking therapies.

I am taking curious, meandering footsteps towards a neuroqueer, posthuman ecological drama therapy praxis. Sesame drama therapy often relies on imagination to offer itself to the conscious world, but ecosomatic experience can offer a ‘co-construct[ed]’ subjectivity, reframing Merleau-Ponty’s ‘flesh’ as a ‘relation of reversibility’ between ‘the seer and the seen’, the external and the internal – an ecological dynamic in which several liberatory frameworks take root.

This study tested this prediction regarding the ABC model. 186 college students were administered the Survey of Personal Beliefs and the State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory–Second Edition to measure irrational thinking and trait anger, respectively. Students who scored higher on Overall Irrational Thinking and Low Frustration Tolerance scored significantly higher on Trait Anger than did those who scored lower on Overall Irrational Thinking and Low Frustration Tolerance. This indicates support for the ABC model, especially Ellis's construct of irrational beliefs which is central to the model.

Abstract:
Background Given the growing role of family caregivers in meeting the increasing demand for ageing-related care in Japan, the occupational adaptation of family caregivers needs to be evaluated. Methods This study developed the Occupational Adaptation Questionnaire for Family Caregivers (OAQC) and evaluated its reliability, validity, and effectiveness. To develop the OAQC item pool, the construct ‘Occupation of nursing care engaged in by family caregivers’ was evaluated. Using the Delphi method, 8 experts evaluated 64 items and confirmed that 41 items adequately represented the domain. The scale was then completed by 216 family caregivers of users of outpatient service establishments affiliated with hospitals in the Chubu region. The validity of the scale items was tested, and statistical analysis was performed. The construct validity and internal consistency of the OAQC were examined using exploratory factor analysis and the ω coefficient, respectively. Results The discrimination ability and difficulty level were calculated using the item response theory. The findings showed that the scale’s reliability and validity were satisfactory. Construct validity was acceptable for 16 items with 5 factors. The OAQC also had high internal consistency, reliability, and effectiveness. The item slope parameters and difficulty parameters revealed good item response, indicating that the scale could effectively measure family caregivers’ occupational adaptation. Conclusion The scale was compatible with the data obtained from family caregivers. Given its overall effectiveness, data obtained using the OAQC can contribute towards implementing personal care support programs for caregivers and enriching their lives by offering support from an occupational adaptation perspective.

Abstract:
This study investigated the possible relationship between Ellis's construct of irrational thinking and Seligman's construct of explanatory style, with a view toward possibly strengthening the personality theory underlying Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy in particular and cognitive-behavior therapies more generally. In this investigation 180 college students were administered the Survey of Personal Beliefs and the Attributional Style Questionnaire to measure irrational thinking and explanatory style, respectively. Students who scored higher on Pessimistic Explanatory Style also scored higher on Overall Irrational Thinking and on Low Frustration Tolerance than did those who were categorized as having an Optimistic Explanatory Style. This indicates support for Ellis's developing personality theory, especially his theoretical account of depression.

Abstract:
Spirituality is a key dimension in occupational therapy models of practice, but definitions of spirituality and its relationship to occupation have eluded us. Nevertheless, if the writings of people who are deeply involved in their occupations are examined, we discover that spirituality can be expressed through our engagement in occupations with personal meaning in our lives. In these reflections, the author examines spirituality as it is expressed by gardeners in their garden musings, and suggests that this occupation has the capacity to enrich spirituality in everyday life. Further study of the relationship between specific occupations and spirituality may illuminate the construct of spirituality and demonstrate the ways in which occupation can be used to facilitate a richer spiritual life for individuals and communities.

Abstract:
The ABC model underlying Ellis's Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy predicts that people who think more irrationally should respond to daily stressors or hassles differently than do people who think less irrationally. This study tested this aspect of the ABC model. 192 college students were administered the Survey of Personal Beliefs and the Hassles Scale to measure irrational thinking and daily hassles, respectively. Students who scored higher on overall irrational thinking reported a significantly higher frequency of hassles than did those who scored lower on overall irrational thinking, while students who scored higher on awfulizing and low frustration tolerance reported a significantly greater intensity of hassles than did those who scored lower on awfulizing and low frustration tolerance. This indicates support for the ABC model, especially Ellis's construct of irrational beliefs central to this model.

Abstract:
There is a great concern whether Physical Therapy students upon completion of their educational program are ready and equipped with the requisite skills to construct and implement a successful patient intervention with culturally diverse groups. The purpose of this study is to describe the professional and personal physical therapist development of Physical Therapy students after participating in Solidarity Activities in Collaboration with a Prisoner reinsertion program as a service-learning course. A qualitative approach was used. A convenience sample of twenty physical therapy students doing service learning and one teaching professor were included. Student diaries were analyzed. Semi-structured interviews were done to explore five students’ and the professor’s judgements. Internal and external observations and filling out structure field-notes were also used as data triangulation in order to build the conceptual model. The main findings include that the application of knowledge and practice of skills in different environments are the most important skills attained with this service learning. Five key themes emerged from the data analysis, namely: application of knowledge, adaptation to different environments, improving communication with patients, assisting people and providing treatment with self-confidence. A recommendation is that Physical Therapy programs include workplace practice in different environments to enhance the development of professionalism among students.

Abstract:
Accurate assessment of upper extremity performance is a critical element in determinimg the potential independance of the physically impaired person. An upper extremity function test for the elderly, the TEMPA (Test Évaluant les Membres supérieurs des Personnes Âgées), was developed, involving nine tasks related to routine daily activities. Each task is measured by three sub-scores: speed of execution, functional rating and task analysis. A test-retest and interrater reliability study was conducted with a sample of 29 subjects, aged 62 to 82 years, with various upper extremity impairments and varying degrees of functional independance. Intraclass correlation coefficients ranged from moderate to high (0.70 to 1.0), demonstrating temporal stability and sound agreement between evaluators. A preliminary construct validity study was conducted by correlating score of the TEMPA with functional independance to basic personal care (Spearman's Rho = 0.74). The TEMPA is a reliable instrument that appears to fill a void in the evaluation of the elderly. More psychometric studies are required to confirm its validity.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Introduction: Physical exercise has a positive effect on the health of individuals. Long-term sedentary behavior can induce coronary heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, and other chronic diseases. Lack of physical exercise has become the fourth leading cause of death worldwide. Therefore, youth sports are very important for physical health. Objective: To systematically reveal the influencing factors of adolescents’ physical exercise and improve the effectiveness of interventions on adolescents’ physical exercise behaviors, this article is based on social ecology theory to study the structural model of adolescents’ physical exercise factors. Methods: The thesis considers factors affecting adolescent physical exercise as the research object and uses literature method, questionnaire survey, mathematical statistics, etc., to construct a structural model of factors affecting youth physical exercise, including four primary indicators and 19 secondary indicators. Results: Adolescent physical exercise is affected by the school, family, social and personal factors. Among them, family factors have the greatest impact on young people's physical exercise. Personal factors rank second, school factors, and social factors rank third. Among the family factors, the major influences on youth physical exercise are “parental support,” “parents’ cognition of physical exercise,” and “parental exercise habits.” Conclusions: The influencing factors of adolescent physical exercise involve four aspects: family, society, school, and self. Family factors have the greatest impact on adolescent physical exercise, and personal factors are the second, school factors, and social factors are the third.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to offer a profile of Caitlin Jenkins. Design/methodology/approach – Caitlin gives a short biographical account and is then interviewed by Jerome. Areas covered in the interview include her interest in psychiatric diagnosis, the helpfulness of counselling and personal narrative. Findings – Caitlin believes that her recovery was only really possible when she was allowed to tell her own story, to be allowed the time and space to talk about events in her life. She mentions how psychodynamic therapy and CBT prevented her from truly exploring her personal story. Research limitations/implications – While this is of course one person's account, it will find resonance with many others. Practical implications – Reinforces the central role of narrative and its role in personal recovery. Social implications – It stresses the importance of a truly therapeutic relationship. As Caitlin states, this enabled her to begin, “joining the dots of my experience to construct a meaningful personal narrative”. Originality/value – Counselling is often undervalued in contrast to more established therapies. This account demonstrates that what really matters to individuals recovering from mental health problems, is being listened to and being helped to make sense of their experiences.

El objetivo fue analizar la validez, confiabilidad e invarianza de la Escala de Actitud Docente hacia la Salud Mental en la Escuela, además de comparar sus dimensiones según características sociodemográficas. A nivel metodológico es un estudio instrumental, comparativo, transversal y no experimental integrado por 200 docentes. El instrumento reportó propiedades adecuadas, aunque mostró debilidades en la validez convergente y discriminante. Se hallaron diferencias a favor de las mujeres en las actitudes favorables, así como en los disgustos y expectativas; también a favor del personal docente de instituciones públicas en las actitudes favorables y desfavorables. La escala es apta para medir este constructo, pero debe profundizarse en su dimensionalidad. Abstract. The aim was to analyze the validity, reliability and invariance of the Teacher Attitude towards Mental Health in School Scale, in addition to compare its dimensions according to sociodemographic characteristics. At a methodological level, it’s an instrumental, comparative, cross-sectional and non-experimental study composed of 200 teachers from Maracaibo. The scale reported adequate properties, although it showed weaknesses in convergent and discriminant validity. Differences in favor of women were found in favorable attitudes and in dislikes and expectations; also in favor of public school teachers in favorable and unfavorable attitudes. The scale is suitable to measure this construct in Venezuelan teachers, but it must be deepened in its dimensionality.
