Abstract:
The main objective of this study was to estimate the psychometric properties of the Emotional Fatigue Scale (ECE) in a sample of 1308 Chilean university students and confirm the unifactorial structure of the scale. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were carried out. The ECE assessment had an internal consistency of 0.893 (Cronbach’s Alpha). An exploratory factor analysis with Varimax rotation and a confirmatory analysis were performed, obtaining the factor that explains 52.3% of the variance. The results indicated that the ECE has adequate psychometric properties for use with higher education students in Chile. The ECE scale has good psychometric properties to be applied in the Chilean university context. Its usage may be very relevant to contribute to higher education institutions to emphasize students’ mental health and prevent possible severe pathologies in future professionals. It is suggested to use the ECE scale together with the EES-Int, which is the only interpretation table for this instrument.

Abstract:
Abstract Objective People with HIV (PWH) are more likely to experience problematic emotions and are at increased risk for frailty. In the general population, frailty is broadly associated with worse social–emotional functioning. However, the extent of this dysfunction has largely been isolated to depression and these relationships have yet to be examined among PWH. Thus, this study examined associations between frailty and summary factor scores developed from the National Institutes of Health Toolbox Emotion Battery (NIH-TB-EB) among PWH. Method Participants were 320 PWH (mean age = 52.3, SD = 12.7). Three previously validated composite scores from the NIH-TB-EB were used to assess social–emotional functioning: negative affect, social satisfaction, and psychological well-being. Using the Fried Phenotype, the sample was dichotomized into non-frail (n = 155) and prefrail/frail (n = 165) groups. Multiple regression was used to examine the association between frailty and social–emotional functioning. Covariates included age, estimated duration of HIV infection, antiretroviral therapy (ART) status, and antidepressant medication count. Results Being prefrail/frail was associated with increased negative affect (B = 0.26, p < 0.001), decreased social satisfaction (B = -0.18, p = 0.002), and decreased psychological well-being (B = -0.25, p < 0.001). Increased age was associated with decreased negative affect (B = -0.17, p = 0.002), and was unrelated to social satisfaction and psychological well-being. Estimated duration of infection, ART status, and antidepressant use were not associated with social–emotional functioning. Conclusions Pre-frail/frail PWH have worse social–emotional functioning, above and beyond age, duration of HIV disease, ART status, and antidepressant use. This suggests both frailty and poor social–emotional functioning may be important targets to screen and treat in order to improve prognosis and quality of life for PWH.

Abstract:
AbstractBackgroundTraumatic stressors during childhood and adolescence are associated with psychopathology, mostly studied in the context of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression. We investigated broader associations of traumatic stress exposure with psychopathology and cognition in a youth community sample.MethodsThe Philadelphia Neurodevelopmental Cohort (N = 9498) is an investigation of clinical and neurobehavioral phenotypes in a diverse (56% Caucasian, 33% African American, 11% other) US youth community population (aged 8–21). Participants were ascertained through children's hospital pediatric (not psychiatric) healthcare network in 2009–2011. Structured psychiatric evaluation included screening for lifetime exposure to traumatic stressors, and a neurocognitive battery was administered.ResultsExposure rate to traumatic stressful events was high (none, N = 5204; one, N = 2182; two, N = 1092; three or more, N = 830). Higher stress load was associated with increased psychopathology across all clinical domains evaluated: mood/anxiety (standardized β = .378); psychosis spectrum (β = .360); externalizing behaviors (β = .311); and fear (β = .256) (controlling for covariates, all p < 0.001). Associations remained significant controlling for lifetime PTSD and depression. Exposure to high-stress load was robustly associated with suicidal ideation and cannabis use (odds ratio compared with non-exposed 5.3 and 3.2, respectively, both p < 0.001). Among youths who experienced traumatic stress (N = 4104), history of assaultive trauma was associated with greater psychopathology and, in males, vulnerability to psychosis and externalizing symptoms. Stress load was negatively associated with performance on executive functioning, complex reasoning, and social cognition.ConclusionsTraumatic stress exposure in community non-psychiatric help-seeking youth is substantial, and is associated with more severe psychopathology and neurocognitive deficits across domains, beyond PTSD and depression.

Abstract:
AbstractBackground and ObjectiveA priority focus on palliative and supportive care is helping the 43.5 million caregivers who care for individuals with serious illness. Lacking support may lead to caregiver distress and poorer care delivery to patients with serious illness. We examined the potential of instrumental support (assistance with material and task performance) to mitigate distress among caregivers.MethodWe analyzed data from the nationally representative Health Information National Trends Survey (HINTS V2, 2018). Informal/family caregivers were identified in HINTS V2 if they indicated they were caring for or making healthcare decisions for another adult with a health problem. We used the PROMIS® instrumental support four-item short-form T-scores and the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-4) for distress. We examined multivariable linear regression models for associations between distress and instrumental support, adjusted for sampling weights, socio-demographics, and caregiving variables (care recipient health condition(s), years caregiving (≥2), relationship to care recipient, and caregiver burden). We examined interactions between burden and instrumental support on caregiver distress level.ResultsOur analyses included 311 caregivers (64.8% female, 64.9% non-Hispanic White). The unweighted mean instrumental support T-score was 50.4 (SD = 10.6, range = 29.3–63.3); weighted mean was 51.2 (SE = 1.00). Lower instrumental support (p < 0.01), younger caregiver age (p < 0.04), higher caregiving duration (p = 0.008), and caregiver unemployment (p = 0.006) were significantly associated with higher caregiver distress. Mean instrumental support scores by distress levels were 52.3 (within normal limits), 49.4 (mild), 48.9 (moderate), and 39.7 (severe). The association between instrumental support and distress did not differ by caregiver burden level.ConclusionsPoor instrumental support is associated with high distress among caregivers, suggesting the need for palliative and supportive care interventions to help caregivers leverage instrumental support.

Abstract:
AbstractObjectives: Excessive adipose tissue, especially in the abdominal area, is associated with increased risk of dementia in older adults. However, the mechanisms underlying this relationship are poorly understood. As increased adiposity is also associated with lower circulating levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a key molecule modulating brain plasticity and neuronal regeneration, we hypothesized that the changes in cognition that occur as a result of excessive abdominal adiposity would be driven by lower levels of circulating BDNF. Methods: Fasting blood samples were obtained from 60 participants aged 40–60 years (mean±SD=52.3±5.6) and BDNF levels were assessed with an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Abdominal adiposity was measured using a ratio of waist circumference to hip circumference (WHR). Participants also completed a neuropsychological assessment battery to assess executive function. Statistical mediation was assessed using traditional causal steps and nonparametric bootstrapping. Results: Higher WHR was significantly associated with poorer performance on the Controlled Oral Word Association (COWA) letter fluency test (β=−0.489; p=.003) and lower levels of circulating BDNF (β=−0.345; p=.006). Linear regression and bootstrapping methods indicated that BDNF fully mediated the relationship between WHR and performance on the COWA (β=0.60; 95% confidence interval [−3.79, −0.26]). Conclusions: The relationship between higher WHR and verbal fluency was fully statistically mediated by circulating BDNF levels. The BDNF pathway is thus a useful probable mechanism through which executive function decline occurs in individuals with high abdominal adiposity. BDNF enhancing interventions (physical exercise and dietary restriction) could thus be used to improve executive function in these individuals. (JINS, 2016, 22, 1–8)

Abstract:
Abstract Objective As neuropsychologists adopt virtual assessments in the context of COVID-19, the field is shifting toward teleneuropsychology. Comprehensive remote evaluations are proving to be feasible and reliable across domains, though traditional fine motor (FM) tests cannot be administered virtually. In the absence of direct FM measurement, this cross-sectional study considered whether universal FM recommendations are appropriate for patients with pediatric brain tumor (PBT). Method Dominant FM z-scores were obtained from 176 patients with PBT (x- age at diagnosis and evaluation = 7.3 and 12.8 years, respectively). There were no significant differences between Lafayette Grooved and Purdue Pegboard performances. FM differences between tumor location (46% infratentorial), chemotherapy (71.6%), and gender (52.3% male) were analyzed. Results The sample as a whole performed over 2 SDs below normative age expectations, t(175) = −14.7, p &lt; 0.0001), with more pronounced deficits among patients with infratentorial (x-= − 2.4) than supratentorial (x-= − 1.7) tumors, F(1,174) = 7.1, p = 0.008. Consistent with prior findings, patients performed worse when treated with chemotherapy (x-= − 2.3) than without (x-= − 1.7), F(1,174) = 16.2, p &lt; 0.0001. Time since diagnosis was negatively correlated with FM performance r = −0.27, p &lt; 0.001. While gender differences were not apparent overall, post-hoc analyses revealed FM impairment in over 89% of males and 75% of females by middle school. Conclusions Given the likelihood of FM concerns (particularly by middle school), FM recommendations should be offered even in the absence of direct FM measurement for patients with PBT evaluated virtually. Accommodations (e.g., note copies, typing/dictation, abbreviated assignments, extended time) are free/easy to implement and can be incorporated into medically based Section 504 Plans, while early intervention may mitigate long-term effects.

Abstract:
Fragestellung: In der vorliegenden Studie wurde untersucht, ob ein Zusammenhang zwischen pathologischem Internetgebrauch, Mobbing und Copingstilen bei Jugendlichen mit Mobbingerfahrungen besteht. Methodik: Im Rahmen einer europäischen schulbasierten Studie (SEYLE) wurde eine repräsentative Querschnittsuntersuchung an 1357 Schülern aus Heidelberg und Umgebung durchgeführt (710 weibliche/647 männlich Jugendliche; mittleres Alter 14.7; SD 0.8). Pathologischer Internetgebrauch wurde mit dem Young Diagnostic Questionnaire erhoben. Mobbing wurde in verbales, körperliches Mobbing und Mobbing in der Beziehung unterteilt. Hinsichtlich der Copingstile wurden aktives Coping, Vermeidung, Hilfe suchen und sonstige Strategien unterschieden. Als Kovariate wurde die psychische Symptombelastung mittels Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire erfasst. Ergebnisse: 4.8 % der Schüler wiesen einen pathologischen Internetgebrauch auf, 14.4 % zeigten einen problematischen Internetgebrauch. Insgesamt berichteten 52.3 % der Jugendlichen über Erfahrungen mit Mobbing (38.7 % verbales Mobbing, 19.8 % körperliches Mobbing, 34.1 % Mobbing in der Beziehung). Es bestand ein signifikanter Zusammenhang von Mobbingerfahrungen und pathologischem Internetgebrauch, der zum Teil durch die psychische Symptombelastung erklärt werden konnte. Hinsichtlich der Copingstile bei stattgefundenem Mobbing bestand kein signifikanter Unterschied zwischen Schülern mit normalem, problematischem und pathologischem Internetgebrauch. Schlussfolgerungen: Aufgrund des Zusammenhanges zwischen Mobbing, psychischer Symptombelastung und pathologischem Internetgebrauch sind in der Zukunft schulbasierte sowie familienbezogene Präventionsmaßnahmen und evaluierte Therapieprogramme erforderlich.

Abstract:
This thesis comprises three interconnected chapters: a systematic literature review (chapter one); empirical paper (chapter two); and an extended discussion (chapter three) which incorporates an accessible version of the research findings, and a future research proposal. The systematic review aims to find, describe and critique the empirical evidence for the impact of mental health service user involvement on the design, delivery, commissioning or evaluation of mental health services. Secondary objectives are to ascertain whether any attempts have been made to apply psychological theory and whether clinical psychologists are involved in the research. The review implements a comprehensive, replicable search strategy and identifies 11 studies published between 1997 and 2014. The included studies highlight both positive and negative impacts at individual (e.g., for service users and service providers) and strategic (e.g., for services and organisations) levels. Process issues, barriers and resistance to the implementation of involvement were also found. No studies applied psychological theory. Clinical psychologists were involved in a small portion of the studies. The review does not support previous reports that user involvement lacks an evidence base. A small empirical evidence base for involvement was found. However, the majority of studies were poorly reported and had significant methodological flaws. None of the 11 studies included in the review had applied psychological theory to its findings. Therefore, this review applied psychological theories of power and empowerment, attitudes, stigma and intergroup contact to the impact and barriers reported in the included studies. The methodological limitations of the included studies and the review process were discussed. The review concludes with a discussion of the clinical implications, implications for clinical psychologists and areas for future research. It is important that the findings of the systematic review are considered in light of the numerous implications and limitations and, therefore, interpreted tentatively. The empirical paper provides empirical research designed and conducted to investigate the attitudinal and organisational barriers to involvement. In utilising the psychological therapist-client dyad, the research aims to ascertain whether there are relationships between psychological therapists’ explicit attitudes to mental illness, implicit attitudes to service user involvement, and perceptions of organisational culture. It establishes whether there are relationships between these and the quality of the client-rated therapeutic alliance. The research employs a cross-sectional design comprising 28 psychological therapist-client dyads within two North West NHS Trusts in the UK. The study found that therapists’ explicit attitudes to mental illness and implicit attitudes to service user involvement were, on the whole, positive. Most therapists perceived the organisational culture of the NHS as market-driven and results-orientated. Counter to expectation, no significant relationships were found between therapists’ explicit attitudes to mental illness, implicit attitudes to service user involvement, and client-rated alliance, and the hypotheses were unsupported. The empirical paper concludes with a discussion of the possible reasons for the lack of significant findings, with reference to methodological, theoretical, and ethical considerations, and clinical implications. The extended discussion initially provides a brief overview of the preceding chapters. It then discusses methodological and ethical considerations, research paradigms and the nature of evidence, clinical psychology, leadership and user involvement and policy. It suggests that clinical psychologists’ skills as scientist-practitioners make them well placed to research, formulate, theorise and provide psychological understandings of user involvement and its impacts and barriers. It concludes with the suggestion that the input of clinical psychologists into service user involvement strategy at individual, organisational and strategic levels could be synonymous with a recently proposed paradigm-shift for the profession of clinical psychology.

Abstract:

The purpose of writing Pastoral Health and Burnout: Spiritual Maturity, Emotional Health, and Physical Environment is to integrate biblical and psychological insights to test three suspected factors of burnout among senior pastors. This is accomplished through the creation of the Ream Pastoral Health Scale (RPHS), a 60-question Likert scale survey designed to assess the health of a senior pastor according to spiritual maturity, emotional health, and physical environment. The RPHS was validated using the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). The MBI is a nationally recognized assessment tool for measuring burnout in the secular word. Eighty-three Christian and Missionary Alliance senior pastors from various districts in the United States were surveyed with the Ream Pastoral Health Scale and the Maslach Burnout Inventory. Strong correlations were found between the RPHS and the MBI.

South Africa has embarked on a range of health sector reforms since the start of the democratic government in 1994. The Primary Health Care approach has been accepted as a way of delivering cost effective, efficient and accessible comprehensive health care at the primary care level. The district health system has been promoted as the best model for the delivery of primary health care because it decentralizes power to the local, district level and it is able to integrate fragmented primary care services under one management and governance structure. In the absence of a formal, legal district health system, provincial and local government authorities have made efforts towards functional integration in primary health care. The establishment of shared health facilities with the aim of providing integrated, comprehensive health care is part of the effort towards functional integration. This study investigates the level of functional integration in joint health facilities between Local Authority (LA) and the Provincial Administration of the Western Cape (PAWC).

Abstract:
This portfolio explored issues that are relevant to the judgements routinely made by clinical psychologists. The first chapter provides a theoretical overview of relevant issues. In this chapter, firstly, the debate over the relative merits of ‘clinical’ and ‘statistical’ approaches to clinical judgement (Meehl, 1954) is reviewed. It is noted that, although much of the empirical evidence supports the greater accuracy of statistical approaches to making judgements (where appropriate methods exist), they are rarely routinely used, and clinical approaches to making judgements continue to dominate in the majority of clinical settings. Secondly, common sources of errors in clinical judgement are reviewed. These include the misuse of cognitive heuristics, the presence of clinicians’ biases, the limitations to human information-processing capacities and the over-reliance on clinical interviews. Finally, some of the basic strategies that can be useful to clinicians in improving the accuracy of clinical judgement are described. These include undertaking advanced level training programs, using quality instruments and procedures, being wary of over-reliance on theories, adhering to the scientist-practitioner approach and being selective in the distribution of professional efforts and time. In the subsequent chapters these strategies are explored further through four clinical case studies. These cases were collected during the university placement program and they have been selected to illustrate some of the approaches as clinician may use in attempting to optimise the accuracy of judgements necessary in the context of clinical psychological practice. The final chapter provides a brief overview and discussion of these cases in relation to the issues identified in Chapter One,

Abstract:
Background: When a loved one is admitted to intensive care it can be a traumatic experience for the patients’ relatives. Poor communication and lack of information from intensive care unit (ICU) staff members can have a negative impact on how relatives cope on an ICU and in the months following the experience. There is a need for interventions to improve these aspects and prepare relatives for what to expect on the ICU using a combination of written and verbal information. Aims To conduct two separate but overlapping qualitative studies. Study 1: To explore how patients’ relatives experience an ICU, their needs during this time, their knowledge and understanding regarding decision making for patients who lack capacity, and their psychological needs on ICU. Study 2: To develop and pilot an intervention for patients’ relatives on the Critical Care Units (CCUs) at King’s College Hospital (KCH), to help them cope with the experience. Method and Design: In study 1 data was obtained from semi-structured interviews with ten ex-ICU patients’ relatives recruited via a national charity, and ten nurses and consultants from the CCUs at KCH. In study 2 data was obtained via a focus group of nine senior nurses, from KCH. Data generated from both studies was used to develop the intervention which comprised an information booklet and verbal guide. The intervention was delivered by nurses to patients’ relatives on the Medical and Surgical CCUs for two weeks. Ten CCU staff members were interviewed about how the intervention had been received by patients’ relatives. Data was analysed using thematic analysis. Results: Study 1 identified themes related to the importance of good communication with staff, the need for relatives to receive clear and honest information about their loved one, and about the ICU. Findings suggest that relatives lack knowledge and understanding about decision-making for patients who lack capacity and may need to be informed of this process at an early stage preferably in written form. Relatives and staff may also benefit from an ICU based counselling service. The focus group in Study 2 provided feedback on appearance, content and delivery of the booklet which informed the final draft. After the pilot, staff reported positive feedback from relatives and provided encouraging and constructive feedback about the booklet. Findings suggest the booklet has the potential to help patients’ relatives cope on the ICU but continued use and testing would better determine its efficacy. Patients’ relatives need to feel supported, well informed, and involved on the ICU. Including information about the decision making process in an information booklet may improve relatives’ understanding and acceptance of this issue. The booklet should be an adjunct to verbal communication from staff and be one of a range of resources accessible to patients’ relatives on the ICU. Keywords: intensive care; critical illness; patients’ relatives; communication; information provision; coping; decision-making; mental capacity; intervention; psychology.

Abstract:
The resurgence of prayer and glossolalia (speaking in tongues) within Protestant denominations in the United States of America has stimulated widespread psychological and theological debate. Previous research has indicated that religiosity has both a negative and positive effect on mental health functioning. However, there remains an important gap in the current literature regarding the relationships between specific religious practices and mental health. Therefore the purpose of the proposed study is to report on the growing number of religious persons who pray/glossolate and the conflicting messages in the literature regarding the relationship between religiosity and mental illness. A total of 10 Protestants (5 with and 5 without mental health treatment experience) from a large urban area in southeastern Michigan were interviewed. The key research questions were the participants' prayer life, coping skills, participation in mental health services, and perception of their mental health providers' comfort level. To identify themes, the participants' responses were classified, placed into clusters of meaning, reflected upon, and then described. Identified themes included using prayer/glossolalia to resolve interpersonal conflicts and a preference for Christian identified counselors when seeking mental health services. Findings from this research clarify a need for further study regarding mental health services that are delivered to glossolates and nonglossolates. This is an important contribution to the existing literature and enhances social change initiatives through advocating training for mental health providers in the positive impact of religious practices on mental health.

Abstract:

The purpose of this dissertation is to examine licensed mental health professionals' attitudes towards rape survivors. Research indicates that the attitudes of police officers, mental health professionals, and the general public may influence the psychological adjustment of rape survivors and, consequently, whether or not that person seeks mental health treatment after the assault (Vincent, 2009). The negative impacts of rape on a person may not be specific only to the act of violence, but may also include secondary victimization from the survivors' negative experiences with authorities such as legal and mental health professionals (Campbell & Raja, 1999) who may hold negative beliefs about sexual assault and rape survivors (Nagel, Matsuo, McIntyre, & Morrison, 2005). Exposure to these negative beliefs held by others may be associated with negative secondary emotions in the survivor, such as guilt; guilt associated with actions taken or not taken in the context of rape has been observed to be positively correlated with posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, low self-esteem, social anxiety, and suicidal ideation (Kubany, Abueg, Owens, Brennan, Kaplan, & Watson, 1995). It is therefore important to examine the attitudes licensed mental health workers hold towards rape survivors, as these rape survivors may seek services from mental health professionals, and the clinicians' attitudes towards these clients' experiences may significantly impact survivors' recovery from a sexual assault. In addition to measuring the acceptance of rape myths in licensed mental health providers, this study aims to explore how demographic variables in mental health professionals, such as gender, type of graduate degree, or participant rape survivor status, are related to the attitudes participants report about sexual assault. It was hypothesized that male study participants would attribute greater responsibility to survivors than female study participants would, based on the results of the updated Illinois Rape Myth Acceptance Scale, and congruent with published research highlighting this gender difference (Grubb & Harrower, 2009). It was hypothesized that mental health providers who have had more years of training in their graduate degree program would report lower levels of rape myth acceptance compared with those who had a shorter degree program. It was also hypothesized that participants who themselves identified as a rape survivor or who had a close friend or family member who is a survivor would attribute less responsibility to rape survivors, as research supports the observation that those who identify as survivors or friends of survivors may reject negative biases towards sexual assault survivors.

After completing both independent t-tests and Mann-Whitney U statistical analyses, gender identity was the only demographic for which statistically significant mean differences were seen in total rape myth acceptance scores (p = .012). This finding is not surprising, as much of the current literature supports that men, in general, attribute more blame to rape survivors than women. Prior to the current study there was no published research using licensed mental health providers as participants in a study using the updated Illinois Rape Myth Acceptance Scale. Data gathered from the current study will therefore offer a valuable contribution to the literature on this topic. Further, it is hoped that this data can be used in the development of graduate programs, continuing education courses, and didactic seminars that debunk rape myths and promote competency around rape survivor issues.

Abstract:
Recent research has suggested that mental health problems are over-represented in the homeless population. Currently mental health services are under-utilised by this group in proportion to need. It is often assumed that psychological intervention is unlikely to be helpful with a client group where basic needs are often not met. The Transtheoretical Model of Change is used as a framework to describe the complex, dynamic processes that are likely to impact on a homeless person with mental health problems' ability to seek help for their mental health difficulties. This model is also applied to services. The empirical evidence for Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs as a help or hindrance to help-seeking behaviour is examined. This study asked homeless people to identify their own needs and explored current working practices of the few clinical psychologists who work with them directly. Interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) was used to explore the role for clinical psychology for homeless people. A pilot study was conducted. In the main study, nine men from two day centres/night shelters (one rural and one inner city) were recruited opportunistically. Five clinical psychologists working within the homelessness field were recruited. Psychopathology of the homeless participants was measured using the GHQ-12 and BPRS. Within a user-designed approach a semi-structured interview was developed for the main study from the pilot study.
