Abstract:
Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) have been shown to be efficacious in the management of chronic pain, but some forms of MBIs are very intensive. This thesis aims to harness the benefits of mindfulness for people with pain by developing and testing a brief strategy, the mindfulness-based interoceptive exposure task (MIET), to help manage pain. The theoretical and conceptual basis of the MIET is described followed by a series of empirical studies testing the efficacy of the MIET. In the first study the MIET was administered to 15 consecutive patients with chronic pain. Results showed large

Abstract:
College students are recognized as a high-risk group for alcohol problems in the United States. Annually approximately 500,000 college students are unintentionally injured, and more than 1,700 college students die from alcohol-related unintentional injury. In addition, individuals who begin drinking alcohol early in life increase their risk of developing serious alcohol problems later in life. As a result, it is essential that efforts be made to focus on opportunities for alcohol screening and brief intervention where applicable in an attempt to reduce problem drinking behaviors.

Background: Prenatal alcohol consumption is one of the leading preventable causes of birth defects, including fetal alcohol syndrome and learning disabilities. Although there is strong evidence of the benefits of screening and alcohol brief interventions (ABIs) in reducing hazardous and harmful drinking among the primary care population, evidence of its effectiveness with the antenatal care population is limited. Nevertheless, the Scottish Government is incorporating an alcohol screening and ABI programme as part of the routine antenatal care provided to women in a bid to protect the health an

College students' drinking patterns have been a cause for concern for a number of years. The present study evaluated the relative effectiveness of two brief interventions aimed at reducing alcohol consumption among heavy-drinking students. The first intervention delivered personalised feedback about students' alcohol use and other alcohol-related information. The other one delivered nonpersonalised feedback. It was hypothesised that the personalised feedback would be more successful than nonpersonalised feedback in motivating heavy-drinking students to reduce their alcohol consumption. The stu

Abstract:
Theories of implicit cognition suggest that behaviour is partly influenced by automatic processes of perception and memory (implicit cognition). An important implication of these theories is that patient self−report may not capture influential processes in psychological disorders (as some of these processes may not be available to self-report). For example, a patient may report that they are no longer anxious (based on their current awareness or willingness to disclose) but may retain implicit/hidden processing biases (e.g., in sensitivity to threat) that leave them vulnerable to relapse in th

Mindfulness-based interventions (MBI) have shown benefits for reducing risk of relapse and current depression.

Moreover, little is known about purported mechanisms of action in MBI.

Type 2 diabetes is a growing health problem worldwide, resulting from the body's inefficiency at utilising insulin or reduced insulin production. For those diagnosed with the chronic health condition careful self-management is required, including following complex medication regimes, exercise, diet and ongoing monitoring by clinicians. Type 2 diabetes is however characterised by poor adherence to self-care behaviours, therefore increasing risk of hypertension, weight gain, renal and nerve damage. A systematic literature review was conducted to scrutinise literature examining psychosocial facto

Syftet för föreliggande studie var att undersöka olika sätt att organisera primärvårdens om- händertagande av patienter med psykisk ohälsa och hur det påverkar patienters nöjdhet med vården. Studiens frågeställningar syftade att undersöka 1) skillnader i nöjdhet mellan patienter som erbjuds sedvanlig Integrerad Beteendehälsa (IBH) med Brief Interventions (BI) och de som får utökad bedömning med vägledd självhjälp 2) om patienters vardagliga funktion förbättras och om förbättringen har ett samband med deras upplevelse av nöjdhet 3) hur vanligt negativa upplevelser är

Abstract:
Literature Review: This systematic review sought to determine whether interventions can reduce body dissatisfaction for adults, and whether body mass index (BMI) moderates the effectiveness of body dissatisfaction interventions. A search of two databases produced 14 studies, which generated 21 treatment groups. Where data were available, the relationships between effect size, quality score, publication date and treatment group mean BMI were calculated. A range of body dissatisfaction interventions were found to be effective, in particular those delivered in person, in groups, and using CBT com

Abstract:
Background: OCD is a debilitating mental health condition. Poor access to evidence-based psychological treatment has motivated the implementation of low intensity interventions in UK mental health services for OCD. Around one half of those accessing care remain clinically unwell. Service users, providers, and treatment decision-makers could benefit from understanding users' views of low intensity interventions and knowing which users are more likely to benefit from diverse low intensity approaches in order to match individuals with treatments of known efficacy.

Abstract:
Background The European level of alcohol consumption, and the subsequent burden of disease, is high compared to the rest of the world. While screening and brief interventions in primary healthcare are cost-effective, in most countries they have hardly been implemented in routine primary healthcare. In this study, we aim to examine the effectiveness and efficiency of three implementation interventions that have been chosen to address key barriers for improvement: training and support to address lack of knowledge and motivation in healthcare providers; financial reimbursement to compensate the t

Abstract:
Psychological distress following a motor vehicle crash (MVC) is prevalent, especially when the person sustains a physical injury, and this distress is exacerbated when the person is engaged in compensation. If unmanaged, psychological distress can lead to negative psychosocial sequelae such as social disengagement, relationship stress, loss of employment, and poor quality of life. The first aim of this doctoral study involved a meta-analysis investigating psychological impacts of injuries sustained in a MVC. A second aim involved designing and implementing a randomized controlled trial (RCT),
