This qualitative study aimed to interpret their experience to inform culturally and socially sensitive intervention strategies.

Using a phenomenological approach, 17 bereaved parents who lost an only child were interviewed. The transcripts were analyzed using Colaizzi's method.

Three themes were identified, namely, "assuming a new social identity," "triggering social identity threat," and "resisting social identity threat and maintaining resilience." The study showed that SIT initially began mic assistance, building an elderly care support system, and promoting social acceptance are strategies that could be considered by policymakers.

The findings offer an understanding of the multifaceted bereavement dilemma and lay a foundation for developing intervention strategies. Promoting or maintaining resilience and alleviating SIT are 2 important ways that help parents move on. To help them with identity reconstruction, the development of culturally sensitive resilience-based programs and the linking of social resources to solve practical problems are recommended. Community health professionals should encourage parents to maintain good health management to prevent their predicament from worsening. Raising economic assistance, building an elderly care support system, and promoting social acceptance are strategies that could be considered by policymakers.

There is strong empirical evidence that a reduction of trauma cognitions lessens PTSD symptoms, but there are discrepancies, including evidence that baseline negative posttrauma cognitions are associated with more, less, or are not associated with changes in PTSD symptoms. Discrepancies may be a function of power, sample size, analytic method, or measure.

The rate of PTSD symptoms change across 16 trauma-focused treatment sessions in a community clinic (
= 56) was estimated using a Bayesian mixed-effects model with repeated measures nested within participants. Number of treatment sessions was the level-1 predictor variable with baseline levels of trauma-related cognitions (overaccommodation, assimilation, accommodation, and optimism) as time-invariant level-2 predictors. The relations between baseline trauma-related cognitions and PTSD symptoms change across sessions were assessed by cross-level interactions.

PTSD symptoms declined over treatment (b = -1.57, 95% CrI [-1.89, -1.25]). Higher levels of o (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved).
Research examining the factor structure of the Adolescent Dissociative Experiences Scale (A-DES) has yielded mixed findings. This study sought to further clarify the factor structure of the A-DES among youth with histories of exposure to multiple traumas and adversities.

We conducted a factor analysis of the A-DES using data from 1,157 treatment-seeking adolescents with histories of trauma exposure in order to expand understanding of dissociation's construct validity and provide the first attempt at post hoc analysis of trauma-impacted adolescents.

A bifactor CFA model fit the data best and identified a strong general factor, supporting a unidimensional latent structure. Only the general dissociation factor was associated with cumulative trauma exposure, operationalized as the number of different types of exposure endorsed on the Trauma History Profile (THP), but this association was small.

The study findings point toward a unidimensional conceptualization of dissociation. A developmental psychopathology framework is recommended for future research, allowing a nuanced and integrated approach to understanding dissociation and increasing generalizability across adolescents.

A significant proportion of military veterans successfully transition out of the military into civilian careers as first responders, such as firefighters. Like military service, being a firefighter is a high-risk profession involving exposure to aversive environments. Thus, it is possible that military experience might serve to buffer or exacerbate risk for negative psychological outcomes in firefighters. However, both occupations are associated with increased risk for psychopathology, such as PTSD, and little research has examined the effect of military service on processes that underlie stress in veterans serving as active-duty firefighters. The current study explores whether military service confers an adaptive advantage or an additional risk.

Using a case-control design, we examined differences in fear reactivity through electrodermal activity (EDA) and recording of fearful facial expressions, between 32 firefighters with and 32 firefighters without military veteran status (MVS; all men).

Viral entry involves the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the viral spike protein interacting with the protease domain (PD) of the cellular receptor, ACE2. We hereby present a comprehensive mutational landscape of the effects of ACE2-PD point mutations on RBD-ACE2 binding using a saturation mutagenesis approach based on microarray-based oligo synthesis and a single-cell screening assay. We observed that changes in glycosylation sites and directly interacting sites of ACE2-PD significantly influenced ACE2-RBD binding. We further engineered an ACE2 decoy receptor with critical point mutations, D30I, L79W, T92N, N322V, and K475F, named C4-1. C4-1 shows a 200-fold increase in neutralization for the SARS-CoV-2 D614G pseudotyped virus compared to wild-type soluble ACE2 and a sevenfold increase in binding affinity to wild-type spike compared to the C-terminal Ig-Fc fused wild-type soluble ACE2. Moreover, C4-1 efficiently neutralized prevalent variants, especially the omicron variant (EC50=16 ng/mL), and rescued monoclonal antibodies, vaccine, and convalescent sera neutralization from viral immune-escaping. We hope to next investigate translating the therapeutic potential of C4-1 for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2.Unstructured clinical interviews are inaccurate tools for diagnostic decision-making. While structured diagnostic evaluations improve reliability, they are infrequently used in clinical practice. Empirical approaches are a hallmark of evidenced-based assessment and may reduce burdens of structured interviews. We explore two approaches to empirical prediction of diagnosis, the naïve nomogram, and classification tree analysis (CTA). To illustrate the clinical utility of each approach, we compared their use in a sample of 6-year-olds (N = 619) to predict structured-interview diagnoses of oppositional defiant disorder (ODD). Findings indicate the accuracy of both approaches in predicting the absence of a disorder and improved detection of ODD using CTA for subgroups of children. Both empirical prediction techniques have applicability to diagnostic decision-making in psychiatry and pediatrics.

Iverson, Sara B. Danitz, Mary Driscoll, Dawne Vogt, Alison B. Hamilton, Megan R. Gerber, Shannon Wiltsey Stirman, Danielle R. Shayani, Michael K. Suvak and Melissa E. Dichter (Psychological Services, Advanced Online Publication, Jun 10, 2021, np). In the original article, the columns in Table 3 were misaligned such that the data presented in the columns did not correspond with the correct variable. check details Additionally, for clarity, the table should have presented a separate column "n" for sample size and displayed total scores for the Personal Progress Scale (PPS) as opposed to mean scores. None of these errors impacted the results or conclusions. All versions of this article have been corrected. (The following abstract of the original article appeared in record 2021-53476-001). This article delpful in improving psychosocial well-being. High retention and high satisfaction ratings, along with positive qualitative feedback from both IPV survivor participants and clinicians, supported intervention feasibility and acceptability. Overall, this pilot study offers feasibility and acceptability data for RISE as a potentially helpful intervention for women experiencing past-year IPV. Refinements to RISE based on the open trial and subsequent testing of the clinical effectiveness of the intervention are discussed.

Across five studies (N = 5,204), we investigated implicit evaluations of targets varying in race, gender, social class, and age. Overall, the largest and most consistent evaluative bias was pro-women/anti-men bias, followed by smaller but nonetheless consistent pro-upper-class/anti-lower-class biases. By contrast, we observed less consistent effects of targets' race, no effects of targets' age, and no consistent interactions between target-level categories. An integrative data analysis highlighted a number of moderating factors, but a stable pro-women/anti-men and pro-upper-class/anti-lower-class bias across demographic groups. Overall, these results suggest that implicit biases compound across multiple categories asymmetrically, with a dominant category (here, gender) largely driving evaluations, and ancillary categories (here, social class and race) exerting relatively smaller additional effects. We discuss potential implications of this work for understanding how implicit biases operate in real-world social settings. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved).
