Повний текст джерелаThe main purpose of the present work was to add substantial data regarding the psychophysiological correlates of action with respective mental representation. A total of six experimental protocols were developed to understand the mechanisms of using motor imagery concomitant and after actual practice, and the effects of exercise on motor imagery ability. According to our findings, motor imagery can very be usefull when performed concomitant with actual practice and even after an exercise session, when fatigue is most present. We demonstrate that higher levels of motor imagery ability are not always linked with greater performance enhancement. Unprecedentedly, we reported that an exercise session might even be beneficial for motor imagery ability of high-automated task. In addition, prolonged intermittent exercise session are more likely to impair motor imagery ability in comparison with continuous exercise. These findings are of special interest of sports coaches and rehabilitation professionals, which usually incorporate motor imagery into their physical training sessions

Повний текст джерелаThis study examined the potential healing aspects of a psychosocial intervention using street theatre with those suffering from schizophrenia in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Qualitative research was conducted to explore how art, culture and public health can provide a comprehensive approach to promote mental health within communities. The sample consisted of eight men and women who were active members of DyoNises Theatre group for at least one year. Participants were either staff at Municipal Institute of Health Care Nise da Silveira or volunteers. A qualitative design methodology based on Heidegger’s interpretive phenomenology was used. The data revealed nine major themes, 18 subthemes, 48 categories within subthemes, which were divided into three sections: a) Performance; b) Manifestations of Health; and c) Cultural Identities. Major themes in the Performance section included: 1) Play: from spectator to protagonist; 2) Ritual: providing structure; and 3) Theatre: development of social consciousness. Major themes in the Manifestations of Health section included: 1) Body in action: strengthening self-other boundaries; 2) Embodied Learning: practical actions to promote knowledge; and 3) Externalizing the Shadow: what within you kills you, out of you can save you. Major themes in the Cultural Identities section included: 1) Community Dialogue: rethinking perspective; 2) Experiential Knowledge as an Exercise of Power: expanding our models of thinking and behavior; and 3) Historical Heritage: reconnecting with ancestral knowledge. Clinical implications were related to reconstructing cohesive body boundaries, deepening the range of emotional responses to the environment, promoting autonomy, leadership, and community, educating the public, and redefining our cultural practices.

Повний текст джерелаAcknowledging these women’s capacity to have expertise not only as reporters, but as theorists too, experience and analysis were conflated in our explorations of ‘living with a label’. Congruent with feminist philosophy, our methodology had a praxis orientation as well, ‘to produce different knowledge and to produce knowledge differently’ as Patti Lather (2001) suggests. The attendant opportunities to research the process of researching and contemplate how we might participate in change-oriented activities were thus integral to this project. Our experience of researching together, and allowing the ‘researched’ room to know and act, produced possibilities, and also created conundrums, perhaps less frequently encountered in more conventional research – all of which gave rise to celebration!

Повний текст джерелаAccording to the Centers for Disease Control (2013), every year an estimated 13 to 20% of children in the United States suffer from mental health disorders. School mental health services developed to address the learning barriers experienced by these children achieve variable rates of success (Adelman & Taylor, 2011; Center for School Mental Health, 2011). Reasons for this variability include lack of integration of these initiatives into comprehensive school reform efforts (Adelman & Taylor, 2011), lack of inclusion of school mental health staff in the school improvement planning process (Nastasi, Varjas & Moore, 2004), and lack of consideration of the local school context in their selection and implementation (Ringeisen, Hendersen & Hoagwood, 2003). A group of 15 school teachers and mental health staff of a small Texas school district conducted this action research study about the status of its school mental health services. Individual interviews of the participants served as the initial basis for group meetings during which participants identified weaknesses in their mental health services, prioritized issues to be addressed, and developed an action plan to be presented to school administrators, and the Board of Education. Consistent with the findings of other research studies on school mental health (Center for School Mental Health, 2011), the three main areas of concern identified by the group included poor role clarification among school personnel responsible for mental health functions, lack of teacher training about mental health disorders and related classroom management strategies, and unclear policies and procedures. The process and outcome of the study support the use of participant action research as a method to aid in the development of locally relevant school mental health programs.

Повний текст джерелаResearch on biological motion, using point-light displays to present the motions, have been unravelling what information factors are still embedded in those impoverished stimuli and which of these factors are essential in visual processing of biological motion. Earlier studies suggest that orientation is a crucial factor in biological motion processing. The short-term priming experiment presented in this paper will further investigate the legitimacy of the primacy of orientation and suggest different solutions based on contradicting findings in previously published studies.
In a serial two-choice reaction-time task, participants were presented with a patch-light display of a human engaged in one of three possible actions: climbing up a rope, jumping jacks, and walking. Participants had to identify the in-plane orientation of the human figure emerging from the moving patch-lights. Reliable facilitation effect was established for transitions containing same-oriented upright trails and same-oriented inverted trials. Interestingly, transitions of same-oriented upright trials produced significantly greater facilitation effect than transitions of same-oriented inverted trials.

Повний текст джерелаContexte: Chaque année, on estime que 8.2% des Canadiens âgés de 18 ans ou plus sont touchés par un trouble dépressif majeur (TDM). Près de la moitié des personnes souffrant de TDM ne parviendra pas à atteindre la rémission tout en ayant une réponse inadéquate au premier traitement antidépresseur pris seul durant 6 semaines continues. Ce défaut de rémission ou de répondre à la monothérapie, appelée dépression résistante au traitement (DRT), affecte plus de 30% des personnes souffrant de TDM. L'ajout d'un second antidépresseur pour améliorer les effets du médicament ou atténuer les effets secondaires de l'antidépresseur a montré à maintes reprises d'encourageants avantages thérapeutiques. Malheureusement, l'utilisation de la thérapie de combinaison dans les milieux cliniques reste relativement faible. Objectif: L'objectif principal de ce travail de recherche était de revisiter la littérature scientifique, à partir des études précliniques menées sur les antidépresseurs chez l'unité de Psychiatrie Neurobiologique à l'université McGill et des études cliniques à partir de PubMed/OvidSP, afin de comprendre le mécanisme d'action des antidépresseurs et les combinaisons possibles les plus efficaces. Ces données de la littérature ont été ensuite comparées avec une banque de données cliniques du programme de troubles de l'humeur du centre universitaire de santé McGill (CUSM), qui est un centre de soins tertiaires psychiatriques, avec le but d'établir la pertinence clinique de l'utilisation des combinaisons d'antidépresseurs. Méthodes: Une revue des études publiés dans la littérature a été effectuée pour discerner les antidépresseurs les plus prescrits et les combinaisons d'antidépresseurs les plus efficaces. Par la suite, nous avons analysé la banque de données du CUSM; 133 patients en consultation externe ayant un diagnostic du DSM-IV de TDM âgés de 18 ans ou plus ont été inclus dans cette étude. Les renseignements sociodémographiques et cliniques de chaque patient ont été obtenus au cours de sa première évaluation diagnostique par une équipe pluridisciplinaire et examen des dossiers. Les patients ont également été invités à remplir un questionnaire d'auto-évaluation de BDI-II afin d'évaluer la sévérité des symptômes dépressifs. Des analyses statistiques entre les combinaisons d'antidépresseurs prescrits et la sévérité des symptômes ont été effectuées. Une comparaison critique de ces résultats de la littérature avec les données cliniques de la banque du CUSM a été réalisée. Résultats: Beaucoup plus de femmes que d'hommes ont été diagnostiqués avec TDM. Dans les six mois suivant leur diagnostic initial, 87.2% des patients avaient été prescrit un antidépresseur. L'antidépresseur le plus prescrit est un ISRS, suivi par un IRSNa et le bupropion. Conformément à la documentation, les traitements combinés d'antidépresseurs les plus fréquents étaient i) ISRS + bupropion, ii) IRSNa + bupropion, et iii) IRSNa + mirtazapine. Aucune différence significative n'a été observée entre les traitements de combinaisons d'antidépresseurs et la moyenne totale des résultats du BDI-II. Conclusions: Les résultats cliniques étaient généralement conformes aux études passées. Les études sont favorables à l'utilisation de combinaisons d'antidépresseurs pour le traitement efficace et plus rapide de TDM, en particulier au début du traitement, mais les psychiatres semblaient encore hésitants sur l'utilisation de cette approche. Les combinaisons de bupropion avec un ISRS ou IRSNa se sont révélées être les combinaisons les plus efficaces, bénéficiant d'un soutien fréquent dans les études passées et dans cette étude. Limitations:Le faible taux d'achèvement du questionnaire BDI-II ont abouti à des pouvoirs de tests effectués à être plus faible que les pouvoirs voulus, réduisant ainsi la probabilité de détecter une différence qui peut avoir réellement existé. Une cohorte plus importante de patients pourrait permettre d'observer des différences cliniquement significatives.

Resumo: Gestos perseverativos são respostas inapropriadas para uma demanda da tarefa e eles são comuns em algumas idades. Diariamente, adultos repetem inconscientemente muitos gestos simples que são automáticos nas suas rotinas. Quando o ambiente é alterado, a sinergia do movimento não é necessariamente ajustada. Isto tem sido associado à disfunção neurológica. Por outro lado, perseveração motora tem sido recentemente usada para interpretar a canônica tarefa Piagetiana A-não-B. Na tarefa Anão- B, bebês são "incentivados" a alcançar e pegar um de dois objetos (localização chamada "A") algumas vezes, com poucos segundos de demora entre dar a dica (chacoalhar o objeto e motivar a criança a pegá-lo) e dar o estímulo para a criança. Depois de um número de tentativas em "A", o experimentador dá a dica no alvo B. Tipicamente, por volta dos 10 meses de idade, bebês com desenvolvimento normal, mesmo olhando esse jogo de esconder e procurar, voltam a alcançar na tampa A depois do experimentador ter dado a dica na tampa B. A proposta deste estudo foi determinar se crianças com e sem retardo mental perseveram ou não na tarefa modificada Piagetiana de alcançe A-não-B, também, identificar o relacionamento entre o olhar e o alcançar durante sua performance, bem como o padrão do alcançar. Nós utilizamos a tarefa modificada da caixa de areia em que um objeto é escondido em uma localização A ou B. Vinte bebês com desenvolvimento normal (GC) (média de idade de 27,3 l 3.82 meses) e vinte crianças com atraso no desenvolvimento (GD) (média de idade de 55,62 l 9.24 meses) foram autorizados por seus pais para participarem do estudo. Enquanto realizaram a tarefa A-não-B na caixa de areia, todos os participantes foram filmados por 3 cameras.

Abstract: Perseverative gestures are inappropriate responses to a task demand and they are common at any age. Daily, adults repeat unconsciously many simple gestures that are automatic in their routines. When the environment is slightly altered, the movement synergy is not necessarily adjusted. This has been associated to neurological dysfunction. On the other hand, motor perseveration has recently been used to interpret the canonical A not B Piagetian task. In the A not B task, infants are "enticed" to reach for and grasp at one of two objects (location called "A") a few times each, with few seconds delay between cuing (shaking the object and enticing the child to grab it) and giving the stimulus to the child. After a number of trials in A, the experiment cues the B target. Typically, around the age of 9 months, normally-developing infants, even though they watch this "hide and seek" game, return to reach for the "A" lid after being cued to reach for the "B" lid. The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not children with and without mental retardation (MR) perseverate in a modified Piagetian "A not B" reaching task, and also to identify the looking and reaching relationship during their performance as well as the reaching pattern. We modified the traditional Piagetian "A not B" task by placing one of two identical targets (lids) inside a sand box. Twenty normally developing infants (ND) (mean age of 27,3 l 3.82 months), and twenty children with mental retardation (MR) (mean age of 55.62 l 9.24 months) were authorized by their parents to take part in this study. While performing the "A not B" sand box task, all participants were videotaped with three cameras. A section experiment shows results confirming that the MR group perseverated throughout all trials. The MR group decoupled looking at the targets from the reaching gesture, while ND group kept lookingreaching coupled ... (Complete abstract click eletronic access below)

Повний текст джерелаThe purpose of this project was to write a grant proposal to fund a comprehensive mental health program for undocumented youth and young adults who qualified for DACA, and are residents of the City of Long Beach, and adjacent cities. Through receiving these direct services, the undocumented youth and young adults will gain skills to increase their overall well-being.
A literature review was conducted on the history of immigration in the United States, and policy as it relates to undocumented youth. Research was also conducted on evidence-based practices, with a focus on effectiveness in treating depression, anxiety, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). After conducting research for potential funding sources, the grant writer concluded that the California Wellness Foundation was the best potential funder.

Повний текст джерелаCollege counseling centers have adapted through the years to operate in an environment that has undergone frequent changes since such services were first implemented, over 100 years ago. As counseling centers continue to be faced with an increase in the number of students who need mental health services, as well as a continued increase of fiscal pressures that make providing adequate services difficult, both the students and staff must seek new ways of improving current services. Therefore, the utilization of an appreciative action research inquiry (AARI) involved the engagement of university staff, faculty, and students in developing a task force, which looked at ways to improve the current mental health services based on input obtained from individual interviews with the stakeholders: students, faculty, and staff. A qualitative method of data collection consisted of unstructured individual interviews of the members of the task force, a member-check, and field notes. Utilizing epiphanic data analysis proved best. This AARI project explored collaboratively the strengths and weaknesses of the current mental health services currently offered on campus. The AARI provided opportunities for stakeholders to advocate for improvements to the current mental health services on campus as well as recognize the existing strengths. Identified needed improvements that emerged from the date included increased advertisement of the available services, increased education about the need for mental health services, and the necessity for increased awareness of overall mental health services on campus.

Повний текст джерелаMillions of people are adversely affected by crises and disasters each year. Response to disasters relies heavily on volunteer organizations to assist in the aftermath of these traumatic events. HOPE Animal-Assisted Crisis Response (AACR) is one organization that provides needed support to those impacted by way of specially trained crisis dogs. Unfortunately, there is a lack of these certified teams able to effectively respond. The research question for this study was how can HOPE AACR expand (recruit and train qualified new teams) into currently unoccupied areas. This question was answered through collaborative action research (AR) with this organization's members, those who possess the specialized knowledge and training for AACR work. Due to the fact that the nature of this AR did not contain sensitive information that posed risk to participants and that written permission was obtained to use the site name, an exemption was granted to name the site in this study. In particular, this study worked with regional directors in charge of various areas of the U.S., elected board of directors responsible for oversight and approval of organizational changes, and a group of current certified volunteer team members. Participants engaged in various interviews and focus groups in order to share perspectives and experiences to solve the identified problem. Through this AR process, this research team determined a plan of action (target area for expansion and strategies to recruit and train new members). The goal of this study was to document a process which can be refined and re-used for future expansion efforts. Implementation of this action plan will also result in expanded territory, increased ability to meet requests for services, and ultimately enhanced recovery for those exposed to crises and disasters.

Повний текст джерелаThis research aimed to create a new music therapy approach inspired in logotherapy as a tool to promote mental health. Logomusic is a music therapy approach created by the researchers through the combination of logotherapy and music therapy, with existentialhumanistic and cultural foundation, in a context of intervention and research. A study group with 15 users from a Psychosocial Care Center was set, with interventions lasting for 10 months, through weekly 1-hour meetings. Field work had involvement of three participant-observers, trained for registering on the field diary and audiovisual recording, and a music therapist as co-therapist playing the piano, guitar and percussion. The following procedures were carried out: individual interviews with researchers, period of participant observation, implementation of music therapy cycles, joint construction of a poetic-musical play (based on protagonist roles), organization of an artistic-therapeutic show and a closing community circle for sharing with participants. The values of the research-subjects, from this process, revealed the importance of the role of freedom, responsibility, protagonist roles, music and creative processes in the promotion of mental health. The meanings shared and reported by the research-subjects in this research-action study were: a) talk circles about values as empowering experiences for health, responsibility and freedom; b) the group creative process (knowhow) as tools to learn new skills for dealing with practical issues on a daily basis; c) the access and sharing of the musical biography as an opportunity for existential rooting (identity and memory); d) the poetic-musical improvisation as a space for the exercise of knowing to be and knowing to live with; e) the joint creative process (construction of a poetic-musical play) as an accomplishment of the meaning of participants\' lives (custom-made projects and the sense of renewal of the community) and, f) logomusic, which was built on the pillars of the noetic, the protagonist role, of the dialogue and the collective musical creativity, revealing itself as a valuable tool in promoting mental health.

Повний текст джерелаPeople produce spontaneous movements during spatial reasoning tasks. Do they relate to task performance? We investigated the role of spontaneous movements in spatial orientation using spatial perspective-taking (SPT) tasks where participants adopted imaginary perspectives. We focused on imaginary perspectives requiring mental rotations of the self as they are particularly difficult and greatly facilitated by active movement in the absence of vision. Motor contribution to task performance could result from a predictive mechanism, which anticipates the consequences of an action before its execution, such as an internal forward model (Wolpert & Flanagan, 2001), further inhibiting full rotations of the head. Observed movements may be visible traces of this process. Using motion capture, we showed that head movements are geometrically related to SPT: both the direction and amplitude of head rotations were related to the direction and angle between the actual and imagined perspectives (Exp. 1). In air traffic controllers and apprentices, only the direction of head rotation was related to SPT, probably reflecting spatial expertise and its crucial role in mental rotation (Exp. 2). In a virtual environment, spontaneous head rotations were related to increased performance. However voluntary rotations, emulating the spontaneously produced ones, did not facilitate navigation performance (Exp. 3), but hindered it when inconsistent with the direction of virtual rotation. Overall, our findings suggest a specific motor contribution to spatial orientation consistent with motor prediction
