Endometriosis has a major impact on women’s sexual health, lessening fertility and causing pain and reduced sexual desire in at least 50% of patients. This article investigates the relationship between infertility and sexual intercourse concerns and illness intrusiveness. Since both pain and illness can be interjected as malevolent internal objects, we also looked at the mediating effect of pain representation as a malevolent object on those relationships. Out of 116 women, 58 met our inclusion criteria ( M = 37.37 years, SD = 5.10). We used the Endometriosis Health Profile-30 , the Illness Intrusiveness Ratings Scale , and the Pain Personification Questionnaire . Results demonstrated that pain representation as a malevolent object totally mediated the relationship between both infertility and illness intrusiveness as well as sexual intercourse concerns and illness intrusiveness. Results highlight the importance of a psychodynamic approach to endometriosis, allowing for the effect of vulnerabilities developed in early childhood to be considered while approaching this illness.

We investigated the predictive effects of learners’ cognitive flexibility and probability knowledge on probability category learning. A number-letter switch task was to measure cognitive flexibility, a self-designed probability knowledge questionnaire to estimate probability knowledge, and two probability category learning tasks (with cues: Coin searching task; no cue: Picture selection task) were analyzed. The regression analysis showed that in the coin searching task, cognitive flexibility alone can predict whether the rules had acquired in probability category learning. In the picture search task, both cognitive flexibility and probability knowledge factors predicted rule acquisition. It reveals that the predictive effect of cognitive flexibility on probability category learning is consistent across tasks, while the predictive effect of probability knowledge varies with specific task characteristics

Objective: Mental health disorders affect one in four people worldwide, and many have limited access to care. Moreover, the World Health Organization’s Special Initiative for Mental Health (2019-2023) aims to explicitly ensure access to quality and affordable care for mental health conditions in low-to-middle income countries. This commentary explores the applications of chatbots based on GPT as an adjunct to mental health interventions. There are various pharmacological and non-pharmacological procedures for treating mental disorders, including psychosocial and behavioral therapies, with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) being the best-researched treatment style. Technological advancements are being employed to scale up the delivery of CBT psychosocial and behavioral therapies, with chatbots being a recent technical invention that can provide practical first-level support for mental disorders. Discussion: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been gaining attention in mental health interventions, and the advancement in Natural Language Processing (NLP) has allowed the development of Generative Pre-trained Transformers (GPT) language models that can understand natural language and produce human-like responses. Chatbots can provide low-cost and easily accessible interventions for people with mental health disorders, and GPT language models can improve the quality of these chatbots by enabling them to understand and generate human-like responses. Conclusion: Mental illnesses are still rising, and many people have limited access to care due to a shortage of mental health professionals, high treatment costs, and other challenges. Therefore, there is a need to explore and implement new interventions, including the use of AI and chatbots, to improve mental health care access and outcomes. Conclusion: The paper discusses the clinical implications of these findings for community service development for this vulnerable group, concluding that RAD was not uncommon among HIV/AIDS-affected children.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between personality traits and athletes performance in long distance runners in Ethiopia. Cross-sectional research design was employed. The data was collected using questionnaires and through field study procedure. The targeted populations of the study were 138 of successful and unsuccessful athletes in long distance runners 2019/2020. Of the Non-probability sampling type purposive sampling techniques was employed. The sample size of the study was 34 successful and 39 unsuccessful athletes (a total of 73). Personality was associated by using five factorial models (Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Openness, Extraversion and Neuroticism) provide a framework for describing personality traits and athletes performance. To analyze the data of successful and unsuccessful athletes of long distance runners mean frequency, percentile and p-value were used. The result showed that Agreeableness’ (70.58%) and Conscientiousness (63.23%) were significantly strong positive relationship associated with their successful athletic performance of long distance runners in Ethiopia than unsuccessful athletes. Openness (49.29%) and Extraversion (55.87%) were significantly week positive relationship associated with their successful athletic performance of long distance runners in Ethiopia than unsuccessful athletes. Neuroticism (5.14%) was not significantly positively correlated with sport performance for successful athlete.
本研究旨在调查埃塞俄比亚长跑运动员的人格特质与运动成绩之间的关系。研究采用了横断面研究设计。采用问卷调查和实地考察的方法收集数据。研究的目标人群是2019/2020年长跑运动员中138名成功和失败的运动员。在非概率抽样类型中，采用了目的性抽样技术。研究样本量为成功运动员 34 人，失败运动员 39 人（共计 73 人）。通过使用五个因子模型（宜人性、自觉性、开放性、外向性和神经质）将人格联系起来，为描述人格特质和运动员成绩提供了一个框架。在分析长跑运动员中成功和失败运动员的数据时，使用了平均频率、百分位数和 p 值。结果表明，与失败运动员相比，"合意"（70.58%）和 "认真"（63.23%）与埃塞俄比亚长跑运动员的成功运动成绩呈显著的正相关关系。开放性（49.29%）和外向性（55.87%）与埃塞俄比亚长跑运动员的成功运动成绩有明显的正相关关系。神经质（5.14%）与成功运动员的运动成绩没有明显的正相关。

Objectives: Mindfulness is taught in DBT as one of several skills offered in the treatment of multi-problem suicidal adolescents. This study explored adolescent’s experiences of engaging with mindfulness during a Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) Programme. Design: This study used an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis design. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with seven adolescents with experience of mindfulness in DBT and the interview transcripts were analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. Results: Four Superordinate themes were developed from the analysis: i) Being uncertain of how mindfulness will help; ii) The challenge of mindfulness; iii) Experiencing a new perspective; iv) A tension between being aware of painful thoughts or emotions or zoning out. Conclusions: These themes offer an awareness of the adolescent experience of mindfulness

According to the facial feedback hypothesis (FFH) one’s own facial expressions have a corresponding impact on the subjective experience of emotion. Inspired by Strack, et al. [1] participants in the present study hold a wooden stick between the teeth (forming a smile) or between the lips (forming a sulky face) while rating humorous films. In contrast to the FFH it was found that people scoring low in emotional empathy rated humorous films as less funny in a happy versus a sulky facial manipulation whereas people high in emotional empathy did not differ between the two facial manipulations. However, in Experiment 2 the “Voluntary facial action technique” [2] was applied in which the participants were required to specifically smile or frown to the different films. The results demonstrated that participants low as well as high in emotional empathy reacted as predicted by the facial feedback hypothesis. In conclusion, emotional empathy is suggested to be related to effects of facial feedback in some facial manipulations but not in others.
