Doubting the Diagnosis but Seeking a Talking Cure: An Experimental Investigation of Causal Explanations for Depression and Willingness to Accept Treatment
AbstractIn the current literature there is a general lack of research examining the impact of causal explanations on beliefs about psychotherapy, willingness to accept treatment, and treatment expectancies. The present study was aimed at experimentally investigating effects of causal explanations for depression on treatment-seeking behavior and beliefs. Participants at a large Southern university (N = 139; 78% female; average age 19.77) received bogus screening results indicating high depression risk, then viewed an explanation of depression etiology (fixed biological vs. malleable biopsychosocial) before receiving a t...

Self-Worth Beliefs Predict Willingness to Engage in Psychotherapy for Fatigue in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
ConclusionsWillingness to engage in psychotherapy for fatigue in IBD appears to be driven by expectations related to specific self-worth beliefs, rather than stigma, IBD activity, or any prior experience with psychotherapy. Clinicians should directly address these expectations with their patients.

Psychometric Properties of Two Brief Versions of the Voices Acceptance and Action Scale (VAAS): Implications for the Second-wave and Third-wave Behavioural and Cognitive Approaches to Auditory Hallucinations.
Authors: Brockman R, Kiernan M, Murrell E Abstract Despite a steep rise in the evidence base for third-wave cognitive and behavioural therapy approaches over the past decade, a scarcity of change measures relevant to these therapies as applied to psychosis is arguably slowing empirical progress in the area. The Voices Acceptance and Action Scale (VAAS), a measure of acceptance of voice experiences, is a notable exception. However, there are no published data on its psychometric properties outside of that provided by the scale developers. The current study explored the psychometric properties of two brief versions o...

Indirect exposure to client trauma and the impact on trainee clinical psychologists: Secondary traumatic stress or vicarious traumatization?
CONCLUSIONS: This study provides support for secondary traumatic stress but lacks evidence to support belief changes in vicarious traumatization or a relationship between exposure to trauma work and general psychological distress. The measurement and validity of vicarious traumatization is discussed along with clinical, theoretical implications, and suggestions for future research. PRACTITIONER POINTS: Secondary traumatic stress is a potential risk for trainee clinical psychologists. Training courses should (a) focus on quality of trauma training as it may be protective; (b) advocate coping strategies to reduce stress ...

Metacognitive beliefs as a predictor of health anxiety in a self-reporting Italian clinical sample.
Authors: Melli G, Bailey R, Carraresi C, Poli A Abstract Research has supported the specific role that anxiety sensitivity, health-related dysfunctional beliefs, and metacognitive beliefs may play in the development and maintenance of health anxiety symptoms. However, the role of metacognitive beliefs in health anxiety has only been explored in analogue samples. The aim of this study was to explore for the first time the association between metacognitive beliefs and health anxiety symptoms in a sample of participants who reported having received a diagnosis of severe health anxiety (hypochondriasis) or illness anxi...

Testing the Italian version of the Cyberchondria Severity Scale and a metacognitive model of Cyberchondria.
Authors: Marino C, Fergus TA, Vieno A, Bottesi G, Ghisi M, Spada MM Abstract Cyberchondria refers to the tendency to excessively and compulsively search for online medical information despite the distress experienced, with consequent impairment of daily-life activities. The current two studies sought to explore: (i) the factor-structure of the Italian version of the Cyberchondria Severity Scale; and (ii) a metacognitive model of cyberchondria. Participants were Italian community adults who reported using the Internet to search for health-related information (Study 1: N = 374, Study 2: N = 717). Results from Study 1...

Assessing beliefs about the consequences of Not Just Right Experiences: Psychometric properties of the Not Just Right Experience-Sensitivity Scale (NJRE-SS).
This article examines the idea that individuals have differing tolerances for-or sensitivity to-NJREs, in a similar manner as occurs regarding for other experience such as the distinction between disgust propensity and disgust sensitivity. In Study 1, using a non-clinical Italian sample, the NJRE-Sensitivity Scale (NJRE-SS) was created and refined. Its final version consisted of 8 items loading on two subscales-an intolerance of NJREs due to their perceived interference with cognitive tasks, and due to their interference with enjoyment of life. In Study 2, the factor structured was confirmed in a separate sample. The measu...

How does attachment style affect psychosis? A ␣systematic review of causal mechanisms and guide to future inquiry
ConclusionsCognitive and affective factors mediate the relationship between attachment style and psychosis. Whilst cognitive factors are routinely targeted in recommended psychological interventions for psychosis, affective factors and attachment style are less commonly considered. Psychological therapies may be improved by calibrating cognitive and affective interventions by attachment style, which should be subjected to experimental and then field studies to assess the impact on clinical and recovery outcomes.Practitioner points The relationship between attachment and psychosis is now well established, and studies have ...
