Abstract:
This paper provides a conceptual overview of recent research on the developmental psychobiology of childhood stress. We propose that the construct of temperament can be regarded as an organizing principle in children's responses to environmental adversity, and we review three physiologic "windows" through which such responses can be usefully examined. It is concluded that individual differences between children in their psychobiologic reactivity to stressors may constitute an important and novel point of departure for future studies of stress and childhood morbidity.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTBasic animal studies and human imaging studies have contributed to our understanding of the psychobiology of love and attachment. There are overlaps and distinctions in the neuronal circuitry of maternal love, romantic love, and long-term attachment. In these circuits, important molecules, which have been demonstrated to play a role in the psychobiology of social bonding include dopamine, serotonin, opioids, oxytocin, and vasopressin. Particular genetic and environmental variations contribute to social-bonding phenotypes, consistent with an evolutionary perspective on the value of these behaviors. Advances in the psychobiology of social bonds have led to hypotheses about the pharmacotherapy of disorders of attachment.

Full text
Abstract:
It has always been of great interest for scientists to study human performance and fatigue in order to better understand the limiting factors and determinants, which ultimately rule exercise tolerance in humans. In the last decades, the focus has moved to study fatigue and human performance not only from a physiological point of view but also to integrate it with psychophysiological mechanisms in order to reach a fuller understanding of fatigue processes and its implications on exercise performance. The aim of this thesis was to analyse the most prominent models of exercise tolerance and delineate psychological and physiological factors determining and/or limiting exercise performance. Moreover, the role of "effort" and its implications for exercise tolerance has been defined and elucidated. In chapter 2, it has been shown that maximal voluntary cycling power measured before and immediately after exhaustive cycling exercise does not decrease below the constant power at which participants were cycling at exhaustion. Such decrease in power, therefore, does not explain and challenge the traditional assumptions that in high intensity aerobic exercise muscle fatigue causes exhaustion, which occurs when the power generated from the muscles does not match any longer the power required by the task. Moreover, this study suggests the implication of other psychobiological variables such as rating of perceived exertion as important determinant and main limiting factor of exercise tolerance In chapter 3 has been tested the hypothesis that rating of perceived exertion and naturally occurring muscle pain, the two main perceptual determinants influencing physical performance have a different impact on physical performance. Muscle pain unpleasantness (Cook's scale) and rating of perceived exertion (RP E) (Borg's scale) were rated during a high intensity aerobic cycling test. During the cycling task, a constant increase in RPE was reported until subjects withdrew exercise while naturally occurring muscle pain rating increased at a moderate level without reaching the maximal rating. These findings suggest a high correlation between rating of perceived exertion and high intensity cycling at exhaustion and minimize the impact of naturally occurring muscle pain as limiting factor in aerobic performance. In chapter 4 it has been tested the validity and efficacy of a novel protocol to measure neural correlates of rating of perceived exertion using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). By comparing two different conditions: Fatigued leg vs. Non fatigued Leg, nine participants performed a series of leg extensions tasks alternating both legs. During this task, brain activation was measured using a 3 Tesla fMRI scanner and rating of perceived exertion has been recorded. Main results have shown an increase in rating of perceived exertion concomitantly to an increase in central motor command across the series of leg extension task performed and a significant activation of the cingulate gyrus and insular cortex has been detected when comparing higher ratings of effort compared to lower ones. These new findings may help the understanding of the neurobiology of perceived exertion and the brain areas and neural processes implicated with an increase of the rating of perceived exertion. Moreover, it elucidates the role of effort-based decisionmaking mechanisms related with perceived exertion. Overall, our findings showed the validity of a more psychophysiological approach to study complex processes of fatigue and to delineate main determinants involved in human performance with particular attention to the rating of perceived exertion. It redefined the role and the impact of exercise-related muscle pain in endurance performance. Finally, it proposes new neurophysiological insights into the origin and development of perceptions of effort in the brain. iii

Full text
Abstract:
Recent work in moral psychology emphasizes the role of immediate intuitive responses in shaping moral judgments, while at the same time questioning the causal role of more reflective reasoning processes. On this account (mainly due to Haidt, 2001), such reflective processes primarily provide post-hoc rationalizations for more immediate responses, and only appear to cause the associated judgments. This account poses a strong skeptical challenge to prior theories that focused on the role of reasoning in shaping moral judgments (most notably Kohlberg, 1969). In this dissertation, I attempt to address this challenge. I do so in Part I by reviewing the strengths and weaknesses of recent studies on moral reasoning and reflection. In Part II, I describe the results of six original studies that were designed to examine the roles of reasoning and reflection in moral judgment while accounting for skeptical interpretations. Part III concludes with a summary of the conditions under which reasoning and reflection were found to occur, along with a speculative account of the practical implications of this work and suggestions for future research on the cognitive mechanisms underlying reflective reasoning processes.

Lebleu, Emmy L. "Ostracism and Eating Behavior| Exploring the Attenuating Impact of Values Writing on the Eating Behavior of Overweight Individuals after Social Exclusion." Thesis, University of Louisiana at Lafayette, 2016. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10002451.

Full text
Abstract:

Eating is one of the most important and essential behaviors that an animal can engage in (Ruiz-Mirazo, Pereto, & Moreno, 2002). For both humans and animals, energy acquisition is part of a complex system termed eating behavior that includes context, overt behaviors, and physiological processes (Morrison & Berthoud, 2007; Saper, Chou, & Elmquist, 2002; Schwartz, Woods, Porte, Seeley, & Baskin, 2000). Previous research suggests that a specific context, being socially ostracized, can increase consumption of palatable food via a decrease in motivation for self-control (e.g., Baumeister et al., 2005; Oten et al., 2008; Twenge et al., 2007; Twenge et al., 2003). Additionally, research has found that while normal weight adolescents will work harder for social reinforcements after ostracism, overweight adolescents will work harder for food reinforcements (Salvy et al., 2011b). Fortunately, there is research to suggest that the impact of ostracism may be protected against by simply having individuals write about things that they value (Brandon & Vohs, 2009). The current study explores whether or not a values writing intervention might be useful for buffering the impacts of social ostracism on the consumption of palatable foods. Specifically, whether or not weight interacted with these variables (i.e. social ostracism, values writing, and caloric consumption) was assessed. While participants did consume more after being ostracized verses being included, no other hypotheses were supported. The current research contributes implications and refinements for future research in the areas of values writing as an intervention and explorations of disordered eating.

Sloan, Kevin C. "Examining Factors That Predict the Maintenance of Excess Weight Loss Two or More Years after Bariatric Surgery." Thesis, Northcentral University, 2018. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10807885.

Full text
Abstract:

Bariatric surgery has demonstrated efficacy as a strategy to address morbid obesity and the comorbidities associated with this issue. Beyond two years there is an increased risk for weight regain and increases in Body Mass Index. Excess weight loss may impact quality of life and mental health status initially. Post-surgically, social support healthcare professional utilization is believed to influence excess weight loss success. Social contagion theory provides a model to explain and predict the impact of social networks on self-management. The purpose of this quantitative correlational study was to examine the relationships between social support quality, health quality of life, mental health status, and healthcare team support utilization on the maintenance of excess weight loss and BMI in post-bariatric patients beyond two years after surgery. A total of 34 participants completed the Multidimensional Perceived Social Support Scale, SF-36, and Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale. The electronic health records of these patients were analyzed to determine utilization of healthcare professional support. Health quality of life was the only construct that demonstrated a statistical relationship with weight and BMI maintenance after two years (r = .46, p <.05; r =.47, p <.05). A significant negative correlation between quality of life and mental health status was found with both weight maintenance and BMI maintenance (r = -.62, p <.01; r = -.62, p <.01). There is limited research on long-term maintenance, but these findings are inconsistent with research which has found that social support, support utilization and mental health status may influence initial post surgical weight maintenance. A regression model found that the study variables are not predictive of the maintenance of weight and BMI beyond two years. These finding may contribute to research on weight maintenance in post bariatric patients beyond two years. The results should be viewed cautiously due to the low participation rate, which may have influenced statistical significance. Future research should examine the possible impact of weight gain on study participation, and may benefit from qualitative research methodology to determine themes associated with excess weight maintenance beyond two years.

Rojas, Shannon. "Emotional Regulation as a Mediator of Adverse Childhood Experiences and Parental Reflective Functioning." Thesis, Alliant International University, 2021. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=27669537.

Abstract:
The intergenerational transmission of trauma has deleterious effects on families (Kestenburg, 1981; Yehuda, 2018). This study aims to examine the role of emotional regulation and parental reflective functioning (PRF) in the transmission of trauma to discover the underlying mechanisms of trauma so that clinicians are able to gain a deeper understanding of this phenomena in order to provide targeted interventions. An online sample of 219 participants who were over 18 years of age and who identified as being a mother completed the survey. The survey included the Adverse Childhood Experiences Questionnaire (ACE), Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS-18), and the Parental Reflective Functioning Questionnaire (PRFQ). What this study found are that the relationship between the ACE and PRFQ-IC was mediated by the DERS-18 (R = .273, R2 = .074, p = .000). These results indicate that clinicians may have success in treating the transmission of intergenerational trauma with interventions targeting emotional dysregulation.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate imagery procedures used by visually impaired athletes prior to and during competition. Individual in depth interviews were conducted with 15 visually impaired goal ball players, competing at a national level. The results indicate that regardless of the degree of visual impairment, these athletes used imagery on a daily basis for functioning effectively within their handicap. Due to their lack of vision, a great deal of feeling and sound was incorporated into their imagery. Suggestions are made for the enhancement of "feeling oriented imagery" with sighted persons.
