Perfectionism is a transdiagnostic process contributing to the onset and maintenance of anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and depression. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to examine the association between perfectionism, and symptoms of anxiety, OCD and depression among young people aged 6-24 years. A systematic literature search retrieved a total of 4,927 articles, with 121 studies included (Mpooled age = ~17.70 years). Perfectionistic concerns demonstrated significant moderate pooled correlations with symptoms of anxiety (r = .37-.41), OCD (r = .42), and depression (r = .40). Perfectionistic strivings demonstrated significant, small correlations with symptoms of anxiety (r = .05) and OCD (r = .19). The findings highlight the substantial link between perfectionistic concerns and psychopathology in young people, and to a smaller extent perfectionistic strivings, anxiety, and OCD. The results indicate the importance of further research on early intervention for perfectionism to improve youth mental health.

This longitudinal study of community dwelling older adults (N = 453) examined consequences of COVID-related worries on changes in anxiety symptoms before relative to during the pandemic. We further evaluated if pre-COVID psychological resilience (PR) buffered the impact of COVID-related worry. Pre-COVID data were collected in September 2018. COVID-related worry and COVID anxiety symptoms were collected in October 2020 (Wave 2). Controlling for pre-COVID anxiety symptoms, we examined if COVID-related worries (e.g. I'm worried that I might die from COVID-19) were associated with increased anxiety symptoms, and whether pre-COVID PR moderated the association between COVID-related worries and prospective increases in anxiety symptoms. COVID-related worries were associated with increased anxiety symptoms (β = 0.005, p < .01), whereas pre-COVID PR was associated with a decrease in anxiety symptoms (β = -0.029, p < .05). PR moderated the association; COVID-related worries were associated with greater increases in anxiety symptoms among those with low pre-COVID PR (Model η2 = 0.35). Thus, the extent to which COVID-related worries influenced psychological health was dependent on pre-COVID levels of PR. We conclude the combined vulnerabilities of low pre-COVID PR and high COVID-related worries significantly increased the psychological consequences of COVID-19 for our sample of older adults.
这项针对居住在社区的老年人的纵向研究(N = 453)研究了与新冠肺炎相关的担忧对之前和期间焦虑症状变化的影响。我们进一步评估了新冠肺炎前的心理弹性(PR)是否缓冲了与新冠肺炎相关的担忧的影响。2018年9月收集了新冠疫情前的数据。2020年10月收集了与新冠肺炎相关的担忧和新冠肺炎焦虑症状(第2波)。为了控制新冠肺炎前的焦虑症状,我们检查了与新冠肺炎相关的担忧(例如,我担心我可能死于新冠肺炎)是否与焦虑症状增加有关,以及新冠肺炎之前的PR是否调节了新冠肺炎有关的担忧与焦虑症状预期增加之间的关联。与新冠肺炎相关的担忧与焦虑症状的增加有关(β = 0.005,p p 2. = 0.35)。因此,与新冠肺炎相关的担忧对心理健康的影响程度取决于新冠肺炎前的PR水平。我们得出结论,低的前新冠肺炎PR和高的新冠肺炎担忧的综合脆弱性显著增加了新冠肺炎对我们的老年人样本的心理影响。

We evaluated the effects of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) alone or with additional interventions on pain, disability, kinesiophobia, anxiety, stress, depression, quality of life, and catastrophizing of patients with chronic neck pain (CNP). Nineteen studies met the inclusion criteria, and fourteen studies were quantitatively analysed. Risk of bias was assessed using the PEDro scale and the certainty of evidence using the GRADE approach. Studies were pooled (where applicable) and subgroup analyses were performed for CNP, or whiplash associated disorders. Studies compared-directly or indirectly-CBT interventions to no treatment, conservative interventions such as exercise and/or physiotherapy, or multimodal interventions. We present effect estimates at 8-week, 12-week, 6-month, and 1-year follow-up. Low certainty evidence suggests a clinically significant pain reduction (short-term) favouring CBT with or without additional intervention compared to no intervention SMD = -0.73; 95%CI: -1.23 to -0.23). Very low and low certainty evidence suggest clinically significant improvements in kinesiophobia (very short-term SMD = -0.83; 95%CI: -1.28 to -0.39 and short-term SMD = -1.30, 95%CI: -1.60 to -0.99), depression SMD = -0.74, 95%CI: -1.35 to -0.14) and anxiety SMD = -0.76, 95%CI: -1.34 to -0.18) favouring a multimodal intervention with CBT (short-term) compared to other conservative interventions. Combining different types of CBT interventions resulted in potentially heterogeneous comparisons.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is effective for pain relief in children and adolescents with functional abdominal pain disorders (FAPDs). However, few studies have focused on the FAPDs specifically and the medium-term or long-term results of CBT. In this meta-analysis, we investigated the efficacy of CBT in pediatric FAPDs and unclassified chronic or recurrent abdominal pain (CAP and RAP, respectively). We searched the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases for related randomized controlled trials until August 2021. Eventually, 10 trials with 872 participants were included. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed, and data on two primary and four secondary outcomes of interest were extracted. We used the standardized mean difference (SMD) to measure the same outcome, and precisions of effect sizes were reported as 95% confidence intervals (CIs). We found that CBT had significantly positive effects on reducing pain intensity immediately (SMD: -0.54 [CI: -0.9, -0.19], p = 0.003), 3 months after the intervention (SMD: -0.55; [CI: -1.01, -0.1], p = 0.02) and 12 months after the intervention (SMD: -0.32; [CI: -0.56, -0.08], p = 0.008). CBT also reduced the severity of gastrointestinal symptoms, depression, and solicitousness, improved the quality of life and decreased the total social cost. Future studies should consider uniform interventions in the control group and comparing different CBT delivery methods.
认知行为疗法(CBT)是缓解儿童和青少年功能性腹痛障碍(FAPDs)疼痛的有效方法。然而,很少有研究专门关注fapd和CBT的中期或长期结果。在这项荟萃分析中,我们调查了CBT在儿童fapd和未分类慢性或复发性腹痛(分别为CAP和RAP)中的疗效。我们检索了PubMed、Embase和Cochrane图书馆数据库,查找相关的随机对照试验,直到2021年8月。最终纳入了10项试验,共有872名参与者。评估了研究的方法学质量,并提取了两个主要结局和四个次要结局的数据。我们使用标准化平均差(SMD)来测量相同的结果,效应量的精度以95%置信区间(ci)报告。我们发现CBT对立即减轻疼痛强度有显著的积极作用(SMD: -0.54 [CI: -0.9, -0.19], p = 0.003), 3个月后(SMD: -0.55;[CI: -1.01, -0.1], p = 0.02)和干预后12个月(SMD: -0.32;[CI: -0.56, -0.08], p = 0.008)。CBT还能减轻胃肠道症状、抑郁和焦虑的严重程度,改善生活质量,降低总社会成本。未来的研究应考虑在对照组中采取统一的干预措施,并比较不同的CBT实施方法。

Internet-delivered CBT interventions effectively improve different aspects of mental health, although the therapist's role remains unclear. The aim of this trial was to evaluate the efficacy of a therapist-supported 6-week internet-delivered intervention in improving stress recovery among healthcare workers compared to a group with optional therapist support. A total of 196 participants were recruited and randomly allocated to regular therapists' support or optional therapists' support groups. The primary outcome measure was the Recovery Experiences Questionnaire (REQ), developed to assess four components of stress recovery: psychological detachment, relaxation, mastery, and control. Secondary outcomes measured perceived stress (PSS-10), anxiety (GAD-7), depression (PHQ-9), and psychological well-being (WHO-5). All four stress recovery skills improved significantly after participating in the intervention at a 3-month follow-up, with small to medium effects (0.27-0.65) in both groups. At follow-up, we also found a significant reduction in perceived stress, depression, and anxiety in both groups, as well as an improvement in psychological well-being. The results indicate that ICBT can be effective in improving stress recovery skills among healthcare workers with optional support from the therapist, provided at the participants' request. This RCT suggests that optional therapist support could meet participants' needs and reduce resources needed in routine care.

Prolonged grief disorder, a condition characterized by severe, persistent, and disabling grief, is newly included in ICD-11 and DSM-5-TR. Prolonged grief symptoms can be effectively treated with face-to-face or internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy. Traumatic losses may elicit higher prevalence of severe grief reactions. While face-to-face cognitive behavioral therapy appears efficacious in treating prolonged grief symptoms in traumatically bereaved individuals, it is not yet clear if internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy is efficacious for this population. Therefore, we investigated the efficacy of a 12-week internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy for people bereaved through traffic accidents in a randomized waitlist-controlled trial (registration number: NL7497, Dutch Trial Register). Forty adults bereaved though a traffic accident were randomized to internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (n = 19) or a waitlist control condition (n = 21). Prolonged grief, post-traumatic stress, and depression symptoms were assessed at baseline, post-treatment, and 8-week follow-up. Dropout in the treatment condition was relatively high (42%) compared to the control condition (19%). Nevertheless, multilevel analyses showed that internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy strongly reduced prolonged grief, post-traumatic stress, and depression symptoms relative to the control condition at post-treatment and follow-up. We conclude that internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy appears a promising treatment for traumatically bereaved adults.

Abstract The added value of using photographs to explore experiences has been embraced in research methods such as photo-elicitation and Photovoice. Despite evidence that photographs aid communication and understanding, there is little research investigating photograph use within cognitive behavioural therapy. This project explores participant experiences of taking and sharing photographs within a dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT)-informed emotional coping skills group intervention. Five service users were recruited from groups that had implemented the taking and sharing of photographs as a feature of homework tasks and feedback. Semi-structured interviews were conducted, using the photographs taken for the group as prompts, and interpretive phenomenological analysis was used to develop themes. Group evaluation data were used to support the analysis. Participants were positive about the impact of the photographs, despite initially experiencing anxieties regarding sharing them. The task supported them to express themselves in ways that added value to verbal feedback, which had benefits for group relationships and for the therapeutic tasks such as mindful observing. Further research is indicated, given the small sample and participants all being white, working-age females. However, the findings suggest that using photographs as homework tasks could support communication and the exploration of experiences that may be difficult to express using words. Key learning aims (1) Photographs may be an excellent tool for the communication of meaning and emotion in therapy. (2) Photographs taken on smartphones are likely to be a user-friendly, familiar and effective addition to homework recording tools. (3) Sharing photographs may have particular benefit for service users who struggle to be open about or express their feelings. (4) Photographs can provide a prop to help service users share experiences in a non-verbal way, which may help when working with people who struggle to describe their emotional experiences. (5) Sharing photographs can lead to a deeper connection with others, although some negotiation about what types of images can be captured will need agreement in a group setting.

Abstract Previous research has shown that virtual reality (VR)-based exposure therapy is effective in the treatment of anxiety disorders. However, more information regarding the specific features of this intervention for the treatment of fear of flying (FoF) is needed. The primary aim of this systematic review was to update and analyse the existing data on the efficacy of VR exposure treatment (VRET) in FoF, providing information on the optimal methodological conditions for its administration. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) method was employed to select the articles. PsycInfo, Medline and Web of Science were chosen as databases with a wide range of publications related to health and psychology. Thirty-three eligible articles were included in this review. Results showed that participants’ anxiety decreased after being systematically exposed to flight-related VR environments. VRET is at least as effective as other evidence-based treatments, such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) or in vivo exposure therapy (IVET), and therefore is a highly recommended alternative when IVET is difficult to administer, and an excellent complement to enhance CBT efficacy. Regarding sensory cues, the addition of motion feedback synchronised with visual and auditory cues during the exposure to VR environments might improve the efficacy of VRET for FoF, but more research supporting this statement is still needed.
先前的研究表明,基于虚拟现实(VR)的暴露疗法在治疗焦虑症方面是有效的。然而,关于这种干预治疗飞行恐惧(FoF)的具体特征,还需要更多的信息。本系统综述的主要目的是更新和分析关于VR暴露治疗(VRET)在FoF中的疗效的现有数据,提供有关其给药的最佳方法学条件的信息。采用系统评价和荟萃分析首选报告项目(PRISMA)方法选择文章。PsycInfo、Medline和Web of Science被选为与健康和心理学相关的广泛出版物的数据库。本综述纳入33篇符合条件的文章。结果显示,参与者在系统地暴露于与飞行相关的虚拟现实环境后,焦虑有所下降。VRET至少与其他循证治疗(如认知行为疗法(CBT)或体内暴露疗法(IVET))一样有效,因此,当IVET难以施用时,它是一种强烈推荐的替代方案,也是增强CBT疗效的极好补充。在感官线索方面,在VR环境中增加与视觉和听觉线索同步的运动反馈可能会提高VRET对FoF的疗效,但仍需要更多的研究来支持这一说法。

Psychiatric disorders are common, and reliable measures are crucial for research and clinical practice. A cross-diagnostic construct that can be used to index treatment outcomes as well as prevalence of psychological ill health is psychological flexibility. The aim of this study was to validate a Swedish version of the Multidimensional Psychological Flexibility Inventory (MPFI). The MPFI has 12 subscales, six of which measure flexibility, and six that measure inflexibility. Using confirmatory factor analysis in a community sample of 670 participants, we found that a model with two higher order factors had satisfactory fit (CFI = .933) and a 12-factor model had the best fit to the data (CFI = .955). All 12 subscales showed adequate reliability (CRs = .803-.933) and the factor structure was similar across age groups and gender. Findings suggest that the Swedish version of the MPFI is a reliable instrument that can be used to index psychological flexibility. Potential areas for improvement of the instrument are discussed.
