Abstract:
Results of 151 studies were integrated by meta-analysis to scrutinize the construct mathematics anxiety. Mathematics anxiety is related to poor performance on mathematics achievement tests. It relates inversely to positive attitudes toward mathematics and is bound directly to avoidance of the subject. Variables that exhibit differential mathematics anxiety levels include ability, school grade level, and undergraduate fields of study, with preservice arithmetic teachers especially prone to mathematics anxiety. Females display higher levels than males. However, mathematics anxiety appears more strongly linked with poor performance and avoidance of mathematics in precollege males than females. A variety of treatments are effective in reducing mathematics anxiety. Improved mathematics performance consistently accompanies valid treatment.

Abstract:
Communication is essential to members of a society not only for the expression of personal information, but also for the protection from environmental threats. Highly social mammals have a distinct characteristic: when conspecific animals are together, they show a better recovery from experiences of distress. This phenomenon, termed ‘social buffering’, has been found in rodents, birds, non-human primates and also in humans. This paper reviews classical findings on social buffering and focuses, in particular, on social buffering effects in relation to neuroendocrine stress responses. The social cues that transmit social buffering signals, the neural mechanisms of social buffering and a partner's efficacy with respect to social buffering are also detailed. Social contact appears to have a very positive influence on the psychological and the physiological aspects of social animals, including human beings. Research leading towards further understanding of the mechanisms of social buffering could provide alternative medical treatments based on the natural, individual characteristics of social animals, which could improve the quality of life.

Abstract:
There is a lack of anxiety relief methods used in the hospitality workplace. This study examines the effectiveness of two forms of anxiety relief through four different methods. The data collection took place in classroom environments at the University of North Texas and the University of New Orleans, both of which are located in southern USA. The independent variables are the recovery method, the mediator variables are restorativeness and emotional improvement, and the dependent variables are negative job affects, positive job affects, turnover intention, and job commitment. Professors were asked for some time during their lecture to conduct the experiment in a classroom environment during the students' class time. Eight classes were visited, with each class being exposed to a designated anxiety relief method. The anxiety relief methods consisted of using a virtual reality headset with sound, virtual reality headset without sound, nature pictures with sound, and nature pictures without sound. Results of 206 usable surveys indicated virtual reality recovery method evoked higher levels of restorativeness than picture recovery method. Restorativeness partially mediated the effects of positive job affects and job commitment. lastly, emotional improvement partially mediated the effects of negative job affects, positive job affects, and turnover intention.

Abstract:
The placebo effect, a beneficial effect attributable to a treatment containing no specific properties for the condition being treated, has been demonstrated in a variety of medical conditions. This thesis includes four studies aimed at increasing our knowledge on the neurobiology of placebo. Study I, a review of the placebo neuroimaging literature, suggested that the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) may be a common site of action for placebo responses. However, because placebo neuroimaging studies in clinical disorders are largely lacking, the clinical relevance of this needs further clarification. The subsequent three empirical studies were thus designed from a clinical perspective. Using positron emission tomography (PET) these studies investigated the underlying neurobiology of sustained placebo responses in patients with social anxiety disorder (SAD), a disabling psychiatric condition that nonetheless may be mitigated by placebo interventions. Study II demonstrated that serotonergic gene polymorphisms affect anxiety-induced neural activity and the resultant placebo phenotype. In particular, anxiety reduction resulting from placebo treatment was tied to the attenuating effects of the TPH2 G-703T polymorphism on amygdala activity. Study III further compared the neural response profile of placebo with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), i.e the first-line pharmacological treatment for SAD. A similar anxiety reduction was noted in responders of both treatments. PET-data further revealed that placebo and SSRI responders had similar decreases of the neural response in amygdala subregions including the left basomedial/basolateral (BM/BLA) and the right ventrolateral (VLA) sections. To clarify whether successful placebo and SSRI treatments operate via similar or distinct neuromodulatory pathways, study IV focused on the connectivity patterns between the amygdala and prefrontal cortex that may be crucial for normal emotion regulation. In responders of both treatment modalities, the left amygdala (BM/BLA) exhibited negative coupling with the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the rostral ACC as well as a shared positive coupling with the dorsal ACC. This may represent shared treatment mechanisms involving improved emotion regulation and decreased rumination. This thesis constitutes a first step towards better understanding of the neurobiology of placebo in the treatment of anxiety, including the neural mechanisms that unite and segregate placebo and SSRI treatment.

Abstract:
Background: Home care of a patient with a tracheostomy after surgery for head and neck cancer requires the caregiver to be proficient with new equipment and required skills. The responsibility of managing an artificial airway, may lead to an increase in caregiver anxiety. Education of caregivers varies; it is often a 1:1 impromptu instruction provided by the patient's nurse and/or respiratory therapist. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the T-CARES course on caregiver anxiety and tracheostomy suctioning competency. Method: A quasi-experimental non-randomized control group design was used. The independent variable was method of instruction (T-CARES versus standard). Dependent variables were caregiver anxiety and tracheostomy suction competence. Caregivers (n=12) self selected into groups based on availability to attend T-CARES course. The control group was to receive the unit-based standard of education. The experimental group participated in the T-CARES course. Only one person chose to be in the control group; therefore, data were analyzed for the experimental group only (N=11). The T-CARES course, created by the researcher, was standardized and instructor-led; it incorporated media and simulated practice. Caregiver anxiety for both groups was obtained before (State/Trait Anxiety) and after (State Anxiety) tracheostomy care instruction was provided. Tracheostomy suctioning competence was assessed using a standardized checklist for participants in the T-CARES study group only. Demographic data were summarized with frequencies and descriptive statistics. Given the small sample size, non-parametric statistics were used for data analysis. Results: Data were analyzed from the experimental group only (n=11). The majority of caregivers were women (n=7), white/caucasian (n=10), married (n=8), employed full time (n=7), and were high school graduates or higher (n=10). The mean age of participants was 50.8 years.; Seven of the participants reported previous caregiver experience. Mean score of caregiver trait anxiety was 36.8. Mean caregiver state anxiety score was 50.5 before, and 34.3 after the T-CARES intervention. A Related-Samples Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test was performed on the pre and post T-CARES intervention state anxiety scores. The T-CARES intervention significantly reduced anxiety (p=.008). Tracheostomy suctioning competency for 9 of the participants was evaluated upon completion of T-CARES. Mean score was10.8 skills performed correctly out of a possible 14. Caregivers' responses regarding their biggest fear/concern about tracheostomy care included "not doing it right," "trach coming out or being blocked," "hurting the patient," and "not being able to help in an emergency." Participants' suggestions for future improvements were creation of a Spanish language course and the addition of supplementary training to include CPR, First Aid, and the management of feeding tubes. Discussion: Research supported the hypothesis that the T-CARES course would be successful in reducing state anxiety. The T-CARES course also had a positive impact on tracheostomy suctioning competency, though without a control group it is difficult to quantify the effect. The continued development and dissemination of T-CARES to all tracheostomy patients and their caregivers may ease their transition home.

Abstract:
Intravenous line placement is one of the most common procedures performed on children presenting to the Emergency Department. Anxiety about needles is widespread, and many children experience high levels of fear and/or pain with their IV line placements. Hypnosis is a behavioral intervention that shows significant promise for alleviating procedure-related pain and anxiety in children. Twenty-five developmentally normal, English-speaking children between the ages of five and fifteen who required IV line placement in the Pediatric Emergency Department at Yale-New Haven Childrens Hospital were randomized to receive either the standard of care or standard of care plus a brief hypnotic intervention. The groups were similar with regard to baseline demographic and socioeconomic status, previous experience with medical care, and presence or absence of chronic medical conditions. Childrens pre-procedural anxiety ratings on a 10cm visual analog scale (VAS) and expected procedural pain ratings by 10-point oucher and 10cm VAS were not significantly different between the groups. Children randomized to the hypnosis group reported less anxiety during the procedure (mean 5.0 vs 3.1, median 7.2 vs 2.2, p = 0.28) than children randomized to the standard of care group. Cases also had a decrease in anxiety from expected to actual of 1.6 on a 10cm scale, while those randomized to the control group had an increase from expected to actual anxiety of 1.1 (p=0.01). A smaller trend towards decreased pain in the hypnosis group was also present. As measured by VAS, cases had lower mean pain scores (3.4 vs 4.3) than controls. In a comparison of anticipated and actual pain scores between groups, the hypnosis group had a mean decrease of 0.8 on a 10cm VAS , while the control group had a mean increase of 0.5 (p=0.14). Recruitment of subjects is ongoing, but preliminary results suggest that hypnosis is effective for alleviating needle-related anxiety in children undergoing IV line placement and may be helpful for alleviating the pain of IV line placement as well.

Full text
Abstract:
Many links exist between cocaine abuse and stress. The literature and laboratory studies in rats suggest that this could be because stress increases the reinforcing efficacy of cocaine. Using male Long-Evans rats, experiments in this thesis tested effects of footshock on the reinforcing efficacy of cocaine using a progressive ratio schedule of reinforcement. They also examined effects of footshock on the reinforcing efficacy of a half-maximal dose of cocaine. Finally, they tested the effects of footshock on cocaine self-administration in rats initially resistant to acquisition of cocaine self-administration. Footshock did not increase reinforcing efficacy of cocaine on a PR schedule of reinforcement, nor did it enhance sensitivity to a half-maximal dose of cocaine. Footshock did, however, cause acquisition of cocaine self-administration in acquisition-resistant rats. Therefore, while footshock stress may be capable of sensitizing acquisition-resistant rats to the reinforcing efficacy of cocaine, it does not appear that it significantly increases the reinforcing efficacy of cocaine in rats with a history of cocaine self-administration.

Abstract:
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES
Mental disorders have an important socio-economic impact on the world. Among the different types of mental disorders, anxiety ones are among the most prevalent, being that social anxiety disorder (SAD) stands out as one of the most limiting anxiety disorders for individuals and is associated with poor academic performance, which directly impacts university students. In addition, your treatment is still a challenge. Alternative treatments considered effective, such as meditation, are often inaccessible to lots of people, especially for students. An interesting alternative came in the attempt to resolve this issue, the Natural Stress Relief (NSR) meditation, via a simple and self-administered program, in a more accessible way. Therefore, the aims of this study were to evaluate the effect of NSR meditation on anxiety of university students with SAD. For that, we selected university students of both sexes, diagnosed with SAD by SPIN. The volunteers were allocated to one of two groups: NSR (n = 18) or Waiting list (n = 18). NSR group individuals performed two sessions per day of NSR meditation (15 min per session) during four weeks, in which first and last sessions were performed in the Laboratório de Fisiologia do Comportamento. Individuals belonging waiting list group did not practice any technique. All volunteers had their general symptoms of anxiety and social anxiety symptoms assessed by the hospital scale of anxiety and depression (HADS-A) and SPIN, respectively. Levels of state anxiety were also evaluated by the numerical tension scale (NTS), the state-trait anxiety inventory (STAI), and physiological indicators records (electromyographic gastrocnemius muscle activity, heart rate, temperature of extremity and skin conductance); and trait anxiety levels were assessed by the trait subscale of the STAI. In addition, One day after last session, volunteers were individually submitted to a social anxiety induction test. Data were analyzed by means of appropriate statistical tests. The results showed that the practice of NSR meditation reduced trait anxiety levels after four weeks (STAI-T); reduced weekly general anxiety symptoms (HADS-A) and social anxiety symptoms (SPIN); and reduced subjective levels of state anxiety (STAI-S and NTS) after the first and last session, but no changes were observed in the physiological indicators of anxiety. In addition, data analysis revealed that four weeks of meditative practice were not sufficient to prevent changes in levels of state anxiety (STAI-S, NTS and physiological indicators) elicited by a social anxiety induction test. At the end of the fourth week, most of NSR group volunteers were classified as presenting normal anxiety symptoms and were no longer categorized as presenting with SAD. Finally, this study showed the anxiolytic effect of NSR meditation in university students diagnosed with SAD according to SPIN.
Os transtornos mentais causam um importante impacto sócio-econômico no mundo. Dentre os diferentes tipos de transtornos mentais, os de ansiedade estão entre os mais prevalentes, sendo que o transtorno de ansiedade social (TAS) se destaca como um dos transtornos ansiosos mais limitantes para os indivíduos, sendo associado também a um baixo desempenho acadêmico, o qual impacta diretamente os estudantes universitários. Além disso, seu tratamento ainda é um desafio. Tratamentos alternativos considerados eficazes como a meditação são, muitas vezes, de difícil acesso para a população geral, em especial, para os estudantes. Na tentativa de resolver essa questão, surgiu a meditação Natural Stress Relief (NSR) como uma interessante alternativa, pois pode ser aprendida por um método simples, autoexplicativo e de baixo custo. Sendo assim, o objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar o efeito da meditação NSR na ansiedade de estudantes universitários com TAS. Para tanto, foram selecionados estudantes universitários, de ambos os sexos, diagnosticados com TAS pelo inventário de fobia social (SPIN). Os voluntários foram alocados em um dos dois grupos: NSR (n = 18) ou Espera (n = 18). Os indivíduos do grupo NSR realizaram duas sessões por dia da meditação NSR (15 min por sessão), durante quatro semanas, sendo que a primeira e a última sessões foram realizadas no Laboratório de Fisiologia do Comportamento. Os indivíduos pertencentes ao grupo Espera não praticaram técnica alguma, mas realizaram os mesmos procedimentos que o grupo NSR. Todos os voluntários tiveram seus sintomas gerais de ansiedade e de ansiedade social avaliados a partir da escala hospitalar de ansiedade e depressão (HADS-A) e do SPIN, respectivamente. Também foram avaliados os níveis de ansiedade-estado a partir da escala numérica de tensão (ENT), do inventário de ansiedade traço/estado (IDATE) e de registros de indicadores fisiológicos (atividade eletromiográfica do músculo gastrocnêmio, frequência cardíaca, temperatura de extremidade e condutância da pele); e os níveis de ansiedade-traço a partir da subescala traço do IDATE. Além disso, no dia seguinte à última sessão, os voluntários foram individualmente submetidos a um teste de indução de ansiedade social. Os dados obtidos foram analisados por meio de testes estatísticos apropriados, sendo que os resultados mostraram que a prática da meditação NSR reduziu os níveis de ansiedade-traço após quatro semanas (IDATE-T); reduziu semanalmente os sintomas gerais de ansiedade (HADS-A) e os sintomas de ansiedade social (SPIN); e reduziu os níveis subjetivos de ansiedade-estado (IDATE-E e ENT) após a primeira e última sessão, no entanto, não foram observadas mudanças nos indicadores fisiológicos de ansiedade-estado. Além disso, a análise dos dados revelou que quatro semanas de prática meditativa não foram suficientes para prevenir as alterações nos níveis de ansiedade-estado (IDATE-E, ENT, indicadores fisiológicos) eliciadas por um teste de indução de ansiedade social. E ao final da quarta semana, a maioria dos voluntários do grupo NSR passaram a ser classificados como apresentando sintomas normais de ansiedade e deixaram de ser categorizados como apresentando o TAS. Por fim, este estudo mostrou o efeito ansiolítico da meditação NSR em estudantes universitários com diagnóstico do TAS de acordo com o SPIN.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Ångest är en folksjukdom som cirka 25 % av befolkningen drabbas av någon gång i sitt liv. Behandlingsmetoderna är få, så som läkemedelsbehandling, och innebär ofta ett patogent förhållningssätt till patienten. Ett av sjuksköterskans ansvarsområden är omvårdnad, och enligt kompetensbeskrivningen ska hen främja hälsa och omvårdnad med ett salutogent förhållningssätt. Integrativ vård, så som akupunktur, riktar sig mot att främja just hälsa och det salutogena. Akupunktur används idag inom psykiatrin, men ingår inte i sjuksköterskans grundutbildning. Information om behandling och effekt förväntas ändå att ges trots den bristande kunskapen. Syfte: Syftet var att ur ett patientperspektiv beskriva upplevelsen av akupunkturbehandling vid ångest. Metod: Litteraturstudien bygger på sex kvalitativa artiklar, som hämtats från olika databaser. En manifest innehållsanalys gjordes för att få fram den data ur artiklarna som svarade an på syftet och som bildade resultatet. Resultat: Det framkom tre kategorier av patientens upplevelse, dessa var: lindring, oro samt hopp och välmående. Majoriteten av patienterna upplevde en stark ångestlindring och svarar då an på den här studiens syfte. Övriga upplevelser var att läkemedelsbehovet kunde minskas, och att akupunkturbehandlingen gav en känsla av hopp och ökat välmående. Ett visst obehag kunde infinna sig hos patienterna. Trots obehag upplevde samtliga patienter behandlingen som mycket positiv. Slutsats: Denna studie styrker akupunkturens lindrande effekt på ångest och positiva inverkan på omvårdnad. Författarnas förförståelse har blivit bekräftad. Det finns svagheter i studien gällande generaliserbarhet, grundat i det bristande underlaget, samt tillförlitlighet gällande författarnas bristande erfarenheter att utföra en liknande studie. Mer forskning krävs inom ämnet.
Background: Anxiety is a common disease that approximately 25% of Sweden's population suffers from at some point in their lives. The treatment methods are few and often imply a pathogenic approach to the patient, such as drug treatment. One of the nurse's area of responsibility is patient care, and according to the nurse's competence description he or she shall promote health and nursing with a salutogenic approach. Integrative medicine, as acupuncture, is aimed at promoting health and the salutogenic. Acupuncture is used today in psychiatry, but is not included in the nurse education, information about treatment and efficacy are expected to be given despite the lack of knowledge. Objective: The objective was that from a patient perspective describe the experience of acupuncture treatment for anxiety. Method: The literature study is based on six qualitative articles, taken from different databases. A manifest content analysis was done to obtain the data from the articles who responded to their purpose and which formed the result. Results: Three categories of patient experience were found, these were: relief, discomfort and hope and well being. The majority of patients experienced a strong anxiety relief and then responds to the purpose of this study. Other experience was that medicine needs were reduced and that the acupuncture treatment gave a sense of hope and increased well being. Some discomfort could appear in the patients. Despite the discomfort, all patients experienced the treatment as very positive. Conclusion: This study proves acupuncture effect on relieving anxiety and positive impact on nursing care. The authors' preconception has become probable. There are weaknesses in the study that concerns generalizability due to the lack of existing research as well as reliability in the authors' lack of experience to carry out a similar study. More research is needed on the subject.

I studien användes ett frågeformulär med strukturerade frågor och ordinalskalor samt VAS verbala smärtskala för att värdera den pre- och postoperativa omvårdnaden.Studien visar att 18 (36 %) patienter hade postoperativt ingen till måttlig smärta och 32 (64 %) patienter hade medelsvår till outhärdlig smärta. Trots detta tyckte 36 (72 %) patienter att den postoperativa smärtlindringen var tillräcklig medan 13 (26 %) tyckte den var otillräcklig. Abdominellt opererade patienter var dubbelt så nöjda med den postoperativa smärtlindringen än de som hade opererats laparoskopiskt (robotassisterade) och vaginalt. Patienter med myom upplevde postoperativt den högsta smärtnivån. Preoperativ oro påverkade inte postoperativ smärta och vaginalopererade patienter var mindre oroliga än de som opererades på annat sätt. Den preoperativa informationens kvalitet och begriplighet fick ett högt betyg av patienterna.

Malmö University: Health and Society, Department of Nursing, 2008.The purpose of the study was to examine how 50 patients experience the preoperational phase before a scheduled hysterectomy, and to describe any connection between these aspects and perceived post-surgical pain.In the study, a questionnaire with ordinal scales, VAS verbal pain-scale and struc-tured questions was used to evaluate pre- and postoperative care.The result was that postoperatively, 18 (36 %) patients had no pain to mild pain and 32 (64 %) patients had moderate to worst possible pain. Despite this, 36 (72 %) patients thought that their postoperative analgesia was sufficient and 13 (26 %) experienced it to be inadequate. Patients who had had abdominal operation were on average twice as satisfied with the postoperative analgesia than those who had laparoscopical (robotic assisted) or vaginal surgery. Patients with myoma experienced postoperatively the highest level of pain. Preoperative anxiety did not affect post-surgical pain, but patients who had been vaginally operated were less anxious than those who received surgery in any other way. The quality and comprehensibility of preoperational information were given a high rating by the patients.

Abstract:
Effective management of children’s pain and anxiety during emergency department (ED) visits facilitates medically necessary care and procedures and increases patient, family, and health care provider satisfaction. This chapter will review evidence-based techniques for achieving this goal. A significant focus is upon non-pharmacological strategies to relieve children’s anxiety because high levels of anxiety exacerbate sensitivity to pain and disrupt coping mechanisms of the child and parent. In addition, advances in techniques for pain relief for specific procedures will be detailed. Aspects of procedural sedation and analgesia that are especially pertinent to the ED will also be reviewed along with two recommended regimens for moderate and deep sedation.

Abstract:
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are now considered by most experts to be the first-line pharmacological treatment for panic disorder based on their low rate of side effects, lack of dietary restrictions, and absence of tolerance and withdrawal symptoms. Similarly, SSRIs are an attractive first-line treatment for social anxiety disorder. The pharmacological treatments of choice for generalized anxiety disorder are buspirone and antidepressants, including SSRIs and venlafaxine. Both buspirone and antidepressants provide a promising alternative to benzodiazepines. Benzodiazepines, although effective for all these disorders, carry with them the risk of physiological dependence and withdrawal symptoms and ineffectiveness for comorbid depression. Their greatest utility at present seems to be as an initial or adjunctive medication for patients with disabling symptoms requiring rapid relief and for those unable to tolerate other medications. Chronic treatment with benzodiazepines is generally safe and effective but should probably be reserved for patients who are nonresponsive or intolerant to other agents. Controlled trials are necessary to determine whether patients with specific phobias respond to pharmacological agents, particularly serotonin reuptake inhibitors.

Abstract:
Palliative care has major implications for the psychological well-being of not only the patient, but also family members and those close to them. Being offered palliative care can send a variety of signals to a patient, including a sense that the medical system has failed them and that their life is about to end, or maybe a sense of relief in knowing that their suffering will end soon. The family of the patient also experience a range of emotions associated with palliative care, often mimicking that of the patient. Although palliative care aims to minimize suffering and improve the quality of death for the patient, it is critical that the psychosocial well-being of the patient is addressed; neglect of these concerns will compromise the quality of palliative care, the quality of death, and overall psychological, emotional, and spiritual well-being of the patient, despite improvements in physical suffering. This chapter discusses the key importance of the need for reciprocal open communication and information provision during this difficult time between the patient, their family, and the palliative healthcare team. Ineffective communication can jeopardize the psychosocial well-being of the patient, with feelings of existential threat, isolation, depression, fear, anxiety, hopelessness, and wishing for a hastened death commonly reported. This chapter highlights these issues and provides an overview of evidence-based established approaches addressing the psychological well-being of both the patient and their family. An overarching theme across all intervention approaches is to maintain honest, open communication between medical staff, the patient, and their family.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Due to the painful nature of childbirth and its maternal and neonatal complications, the woman needs support in this phase of their life. The anxiety felt by women before caesarean delivery caused psychological problems, the increased of surgical pain therefore increased the need for pain relief, and prolong hospitalization. This study aimed to investigate the difference of anxiety in intrapartum mothers with normal and sectio caesarea. Subjects and Method: A cross sectional study was conducted at Haji hospital, Surabaya, East Java, Indonesia. A sample of 34 intrapartum mothers was selected by consecutive sampling. The dependent variable was anxiety. The independent variables were normal and section cesarea birth delivery. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by independent t test. Results: There was no difference of anxiety in intrapartum mothers with normal birth delivery (Mean= 56.82; SD= 15.02) and mother those with section cesarea (Mean= 58.19; SD= 12.02). Conclusion: There is no difference of anxiety in intrapartum mothers with normal birth delivery and mother those with section cesarea.

Abstract:
The article discusses how the emotional state of pregnant women is influenced by their previous experience of pregnancy. The study relies on the following methods: ‘Test of Pregnant Woman’s Relations’ by I.V Dobryakova; ‘Self. Assessment of Emotional States’ by A. Wessman and D. Ricks; “Self. Estimate” by T. Dembo and S. Ya. Rubinshtein (modified by P. V. Yanshin); “Test of Meaningful Life Orientations” by D. Krambo and L. Makholikh (adapted by D. A. Leontyev). The study has shown that in the presence of complications and pathologies — in the form of a history of miscarriage — the emotional sphere of a woman will be characterized by emotional instability, increased anxiety and low self.esteem. Emotional instability is typical of pregnancy in general and it often is accompanied by dependence on others, distrustfulness, fatigue, vulnerability, impressionability combined with excitement, anxiety, and some fear.

Abstract:
Abstract A research area of interest is that one concerning the design of solutions for improving the life conditions of users in extreme environmental situations. An example is the spacecraft environment, where astronauts are subject to particular conditions, due to the extreme environment. The isolated and confined environment influences behaviors and perceptions. This situation can impact both on astronauts’ moods, cause states of depression, and impact on their performance in working activities. A spacecraft can be the Space Station orbiting the Earth, or future means of transportation used for travelling to other planets. In both cases the space should be designed so as to offer the best possible living and working conditions to the astronauts. The research presented in this paper aims at designing and developing a multisensory VR system for the entertainment and the relaxation of astronauts. The use of VR technology allows us to overcome physical and psychological boundaries of the confined space, which is typical in a spacecraft environment. The sense of smell, which is more linked to visceral emotions than the other senses and can affect various aspects of humans’ physiological and psychological conditions, is used to improve astronauts’ productivity and concentration, and also to relieve their stress and anxiety.
