Abstract:

Abstract Introduction Nurses report a higher prevalence of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) than the general population, and approximately 18% of nurses report having depression. Nightmares are a common symptom of PTSD, and both nightmares and PTSD are correlated with depression. Nightmares may represent a possible clinical target for improving outcomes in both disorders. This study assessed associations between PTSD and depressive symptoms with nightmare severity, and whether depressive symptoms moderated associations between PTSD and nightmare severity.

Abstract Introduction Nurses may experience frequent nightmares due to stressful work environments. Some studies estimate that 35% of nurses experience nightmares related to experiences at work. Nightmares may also exacerbate stress among nurses, although this has yet to be tested empirically. We examined daily bidirectional associations between stress severity and nightmare occurrence and severity, and whether posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms moderated those relationships.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction Studying language use in dreams and nightmares has become an increasingly used tool to understand underlying emotional and cognitive processes. Specifically, in regards to post-trauma nightmares (PTNMs), nightmare transcriptions can offer a lens to understand a survivor’s interpretation of their trauma. The current study will utilize a method of quantitative text analysis to analyze the relationship between specific psychological constructs and symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and nightmare qualities.

Abstract Introduction Imagery Rehearsal Therapy (IRT) is an efficacious treatment for Nightmare Disorder.

Abstract:

Nightmares are intense and unpleasant dream experiences that characterize approximately 4 percent of the adult population at least on a weekly basis. Nightmare frequency is often co-morbid with other mental complaints; however, recent results indicate that nightmare disorder is independent from waking mental dysfunctions. Nightmare disorder is intimately related to poor subjective sleep quality, and according to polysomnographic studies nightmare subjects’ sleep is characterized by increased sleep fragmentation and hyper-arousal. These findings suggest that instead of the psychopathological pe

Abstract Introduction Nightmare occurrences may, in part, result from prior-day arousal (e.g., the continuity hypothesis), and that they then influence next-day symptoms.

This study adds to these works by using EMA in a sample of combat-exposed Veterans.

Abstract Introduction Suicide is the second-leading cause of death for young adults and insomnia increases suicide risk. However, the data on disrupted sleep and suicidal ideation in college students is mixed, including whether disrupted sleep fits into the framework of the Interpersonal Theory of Suicide. Therefore, the present study explored how four different sleep variables influenced recent suicidal ideation in a collegiate sample.

Abstract:

Introduction: Obsessive-compulsive disorder is characterized by persistent irrational thoughts manifested by repeated actions. These disorders often have an impact on the social life of those who suffer from them, with a tendency towards isolation which can be exacerbated during this period of confinement. Among these disorders, the fear of contamination is very common. This fear is influenced by culture, society, and global health issues. Thus, in 1920, many cases of fear of syphilis emerged following major awareness campaigns pertaining to the disease. In the 1980s, obsessive disorders relat

Abstract Introduction Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) can increase suicide risk and is highly prevalent among young adults, including college students. While there is mounting evidence that disrupted sleep increases suicide risk, it is unclear how sleep influences NSSIs. Therefore, the present study explored how sleep variables were associated with NSSIs in a college sample. Methods Data from N=506 respondents were collected as part of the Assessing Nocturnal Sleep/Wake Effects on Risk of Suicide (ANSWERS) Survey of college students.

Abstract:

Insomnia is a common problem in Canada and has been associated with increased use of health care services and economic burden. This paper examines the prevalence and risk factors for insomnia in two Cree First Nation communities in Saskatchewan, Canada. Five hundred and eighty-eight adults participated in a baseline survey conducted as part of the First Nations Sleep Health Collaborative Project. The prevalence of insomnia was 19.2% among participants with an Insomnia Severity Index score of ≥15.

Although sleep problems are a common complaint in migraine patients, the role of sleep habits and hygiene as triggering factors of head pain attacks has been poorly analyzed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of modifying bad sleep habits across several headache parameters. Based on our previous study, we selected 70/164 migraineurs (42.7%) with poor sleep hygiene and randomly assigned them to two groups: group A migraineurs, who were instructed to follow directions to improve sleep hygiene; and group B migraineurs who were not given instructions on improving sleep hygiene.

Wildfires present a serious risk to humans as well as to the environment. Wildfires cause loss of lives, economic losses, expose people to personal as well as collective trauma, and compromise the mental health of survivors. Sleep disturbances are highly prevalent following a traumatic event; however, their prevalence is not well established amongst those confronted by natural disasters such as wildfires. The aim of this systematic review is to synthesise the empirical findings pertaining to wildfires and the prevalence of sleep disturbances in the general community affected by this natural di

Abstract:

Abstract Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is concerning not only because of the severity and chronicity of its symptoms – including distressing nightmares, flashbacks, anxiety attacks and maladaptive patterns of avoidant and nearly paranoid behavior – but also because of the wide spectrum of clinical and social impairments it is tightly associated with. The most striking example of clinical morbidity associated with PTSD is the well-known increase in the risk of suicidal behavior. Given that PTSD and medical illnesses increase the likelihood of suicide separately and independently, it is r

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Sleep disturbance is a common problem following military deployment. Insomnia is associated with other adverse psychiatric and medical health outcomes. There are specialized cognitive behavioral therapies that can effectively treat insomnia; however, these tend to emphasize dysfunctional beliefs about sleep rather than nocturnal vigilance. Deployment to a threatening environment can engender nocturnal vigilance, which appears to be a salient feature of sleep disturbance in formerly deployed veterans.
