Abstract:
Cannabinoids (CB) are compounds structurally derived from Δ(9)-THC, the main pharmacologically active component of cannabis and marijuana. CBs produce psychoactive effects by binding the cerebral CB1 receptor (CB1R). The mammalian brain also naturally produces endocannabinoids (eCBs), intrinsic ligands of CB1R. At the start of this doctoral project, the role of the eCB system in mood regulation and the interaction between CBs and monoamines remained largely unexplored. The main aim of this project was to characterize the effects of CBs and eCBs on depression-like reactivity in murids. Since s

Executive functions (EF) are crucial for creativity, flexibility, self-control and discipline. A growing body of research distinguish EF by two processes; these include cool EF (abstract and decontextualised processes) and hot EF (affective and motivational decision making). Emotion regulation (ER) is important for maintaining internal arousal, allowing for flexible affective expression where necessary. Research shows that EF and ER are closely related, yet literature measuring the relationship between EF and specific ER strategies is limited. The first study therefore sought to determine the

The mechanisms that govern the repression of 5-HT1A receptor gene expression mediated by a novel mental retardation gene, Freud-1, were examined in HEK293 and SKNSH cells. This study provides a possible mechanism of 5-HT1A receptor gene regulation by Freud-1, which, to mediate its action, recruits Swi/Snf and Sin3A/histone deacetylase (HDAC) complexes in non-neuronal HEK293 cells and Swi/Snf only in neuronal, 5-HT1A receptor-expressing SKNSH cells. Thus, Freud-1 has a dual mechanism of repression depending on cell type: HDAC dependent in HEK293 cells and HDAC independent in SKNSH cells. In add

In the absence of FMRP, the expression of a large group of neuronal proteins is deregulated, resulting in impaired synaptic morphology and function.

Abstract:
In exploring the role of social influences in the development of the self, the current study evaluated whether young adults use social comparisons in developing their hoped-for possible selves and, if so, whether their developmental process correlates with self-regulatory processes and positive mental health outcomes. The current study found the following: (1) the domains of hoped-for possible selves among young adults were related to the gender of the social comparison target, (2) the direction of young adults’ social comparison processes (upward or downward) did not significantly influence s

Abstract:
Anxiety disorders are among the most common psychological disorders in childhood<br />with reported rates as high as 41.2% (Cartwright-Hatton, McNicol, & Doubleday, 2006; Cooley,<br />Boyd, & Grados, 2004). A majority of the anxiety intervention programs target children who are<br />7 years of age and older. Yet, many anxiety disorders develop in the preschool years (APA,<br />2000). Therefore, it seems desirable to work with young children who display early signs of<br />anxiety to provide them with skills that would protect them from later full-blown<br />psychopathology.

Abstract:
This research project addressed the question of why facial nerve paralysis patients experience fatigue during facial expression exercises and when using their face in social situations. It was proposed that attempts at consciously controlling the movement of the usually automatically controlled facial muscles deplete cognitive resources, and result in a task-specific mental fatigue comparable to the depletion observed following self-regulation efforts. A questionnaire study showed that facial exercises were as fatiguing as performing moderate gardening or heavy housework; and for patients, use

Abstract:
This thesis reviews the literature on theoretical cognitive neuroscientific findings linked to self-compassion, emotion regulation and compassion. Further, an empirical study was conducted with the aim to investigate correlational findings of self-compassion in relation to mental health in India. Mental health was measured through positive and negative affect, symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder and depression. The background of the thesis is mainly centred on the emotion regulation strategy cognitive reappraisal and compassion to provide more understanding of the links regarding self-com

Abstract:
In a diverse community sample of mothers (N = 108) and their preschool‐aged children (Mage = 3.50 years), this study conducted person‐oriented analyses of maternal emotion regulation (ER) based on a multimethod assessment incorporating physiological, observational, and self‐report indicators. A model‐based cluster analysis was applied to five indicators of maternal ER: maternal self‐report, observed negative affect in a parent–child interaction, baseline respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA), and RSA suppression across two laboratory tasks. Model‐based cluster analyses revealed four maternal ER p
