Empathic Perspective Taking and the Situational Malleability of the Communal Self-concept. - Uchronski, Mirjam; Abele, Andrea E.; Bruckmüller, Susanne (Self and identity, 2013)
Previous research has suggested that communal self-descriptions might be less malleable than agentic ones. We propose that the communal self-concept is malleable as well, and that empathic perspective taking activates the communal self-concept. In two studies, participants watched a video and were either instructed to empathically take the perspective of the target person or to remain objective and detached. In Study 1, we used a repeated-measures design and found that participants’ communal self-descriptions changed after empathic perspective taking, but not in the objective condition. In Study 2, we assessed the accessibility of the communal self-concept by measuring response latencies. Participants in the empathic perspective-taking condition responded faster for communal traits and judged more communal traits as self-descriptive than participants in the objective condition.

Empfehlungen der Kommission „Studium und Lehre“ der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Psychologie zu unterschiedlichen Dissertationsformen. - Abele-Brehm, Andrea; Deutsch, Roland; Antoni, Conny; Bühner, Markus; Erdfelder, Edgar; Fydrich, Thomas; Gollwitzer, Mario; König, Cornelius; Spinath, Birgit (Psychologische Rundschau, 2016)
Vorgelegt werden von der "Kommission Studium und Lehre" der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Psychologie (DGPs) erarbeitete Empfehlungen zum Umgang mit unterschiedlichen Dissertationsformen. Es handelt sich um eine Aktualisierung und Erweiterung der 2005 publizierten Empfehlungen. Im Anschluss an eine Skizzierung von Vorteilen publikationsorientierter Dissertationen werden deren Risiken und Beurteilungsprobleme benannt. Eine von der Kommission durchgeführte Analyse von 53 Promotionsordnungen der Fachbereiche, denen die Psychologie jeweils angehört, zeigte, dass 44 (83 %) die Möglichkeit einer publikationsorientierten Promotion explizit enthalten. Eine Analyse der Regelungen hinsichtlich der Anzahl der geforderten Publikationen, der Forderung nach Erstautorschaft, der Abgrenzung des Eigenanteils, des Publikations- versus Annahmestatus und der Frage, ob Gutachter gleichzeitig Koautoren sein dürfen, ergab erhebliche Unterschiede zwischen den Promotionsordnungen. Ein Vergleich mit den DGPs-Empfehlungen zu publikationsorientierten Promotionen von 2005 machte deutlich, dass diese nur teilweise umgesetzt wurden. Vor allem werden das Publikationsgebot und die Anzahl der Erstautorschaften wesentlich moderater gehandhabt als es in den Empfehlungen vorgesehen ist. Hinweise zur Frage, inwiefern Gutachter auch Koautoren sein dürfen, sind nur in 8 der 44 Ordnungen geregelt (in 5 Varianten). Die Analyse zeigt, dass es einer stärkeren Vereinheitlichung der Kriterien an deutschen Universitäten bedarf. Eine entsprechende Regelung soll aber auch zu einer Minimierung der Risiken bei gleichzeitigem Erhalt der Vorteile und Chancen publikationsorientierter Dissertationen führen. Die von der Kommission vor diesem Hintergrund erarbeiteten Empfehlungen sehen vor, die Mindestanzahl der Manuskripte, die den Kern der Dissertationsschrift darstellen, nicht festzulegen. Es werden Anforderungen an die Dissertationsschrift und deren Begutachtung formuliert, die unabhängig von der Form (publikationsorientiert, Monographie) erfüllt sein sollen. Sie werden unter fünf Stichworten zusammengefasst: 1) "Förderung der Wissenschaft" (schnelle Bekanntmachung der Ergebnisse, auch in Vorabpublikationen oder Vorträgen von Teilen der Dissertationsschrift); 2) "Eigenständigkeit" (für jedes Manuskript sind genaue Angaben zu machen, welchen Eigenanteil der/die Promovierende an der Formulierung der Fragestellung, der Studienkonzeption, der Durchführung und Auswertung sowie dem Verfassen des Textes hatte. Ferner muss bei zwei oder mehr Manuskripten als Kern der Dissertationsschrift ein ausschließlich vom Promovierenden verfasster ausführlicher Manteltext vorgelegt werden, dessen Merkmale definiert werden (u. a. Einführung in die theoretischen, methodischen und empirischen Grundlagen der Forschungsarbeiten). Die Manuskripte, die den Kern der Dissertationsschrift darstellen, müssen von den Promovierenden in Alleinautorschaft oder in alleiniger Erstautorschaft verfasst sein. Manuskripte mit sogenannten geteilten Erstautorschaften können also nicht zu den Kernmanuskripten der Dissertation zählen); 3) "Machbarkeit" (eine Promotion soll in der Regel innerhalb von drei Jahren abgeschlossen werden können; die Details sollen in einer Betreuungsvereinbarung zu Beginn des Promotionsverfahrens zwischen Promovend(in) und Betreuer(in) geregelt werden; die Promotionsordnungen sollten daher keine formalen Vorgaben machen hinsichtlich der Anzahl der durchzuführenden Untersuchungen und zu erstellenden Manuskripte sowie zum Annahmestatus der Manuskripte); 4) "Unbefangenheit": Höchstens ein Gutachter darf Koautor von Manuskripten sein, die der Dissertationsschrift zugrunde liegen; 5) "Qualität vor Quantität": (Qualität und Eigenständigkeit der erbrachten Leistungen sollen bei der Bewertung Vorrang haben vor der Anzahl der Seiten, der enthaltenen Experimente oder enthaltenen Manuskripte; es soll nicht die Qualität des Publikationsorgans, sondern in erster Linie die Qualität der berichteten Forschungsarbeit beurteilt werden; Dissertationen dürfen auch Forschungsarbeiten enthalten, die zu unerwarteten oder schwer zu interpretierenden oder nicht signifikanten Ergebnissen geführt haben; die Promotionswürdigkeit der Arbeiten soll vorab durch Betreuer bzw. Gutachter beurteilt werden). Die Kommission geht davon aus, dass bei Umsetzung dieser Empfehlungen mehr Transparenz für Promovierende herrschen wird und dass durch das höhere Gewicht, das den Einschätzungen der Gutachterinnen und Gutachtern beigemessen wird, die Gutachten hinsichtlich ihrer Bedeutung aufgewertet werden.

Empirische Forschungsergebnisse im Bereich Elternbildung und Elterntraining - Lösel, Friedrich; Runkel, Daniela (Erziehungs- und Bildungspartnerschaften: Grundlagen und Strukturen von Elternarbeit, 2012)
Seit einigen Jahren hat Familienbildung in Deutschland eine lange nicht gekannte Hochkonjunktur (Rollik 2007). Das trifft insbesondere auf das Thema Elternbildung zu. „Elternbildung ist inzwischen neben der klassischen Familienbildung (…) schon seit einiger Zeit ein großer, ziemlich unübersichtlicher, teilweise kommerzialisierter Markt der Möglichkeiten geworden“ (Tschöpe-Scheffler 2006, S. 9). Dies könnte u.a. aus einer Verunsicherung vieler Eltern resultieren. In einer Studie zur Familienbildung gaben zum Beispiel 11,8% der befragten Eltern an, immer oder häufig in Erziehungsfragen unsicher zu sein, wohingegen der Anteil derer, die sich nie unsicher sind, bei lediglich 7,4% lag (Mühling/Smolka 2007).

Endogenous testosterone levels are associated with amygdala and ventromedial prefrontal cortex responses to anger faces in men but not women - Stanton, Steven J.; Wirth, Michelle M.; Waugh, Christian E.; Schultheiss, Oliver (Biological Psychology, 2009)
Testosterone moderates behavioral and physiological responses to the emotion anger. However, little is known about the effects of testosterone in the human brain in the context of the perception of anger. We used fMRI to measure BOLD responses to anger faces in the amygdala and ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) as a function of endogenous testosterone levels in 24 participants (10 men). In one task, participants passively viewed anger faces and neutral faces and in another task, participants engaged in an oddball task while viewing anger and neutral faces. Men’s, but not women’s, amygdala BOLD response to anger faces was negatively correlated with their endogenous testosterone levels in both tasks. Men’s, but not women’s, vmPFC BOLD response to anger faces was positively correlated with their endogenous testosterone levels in the passive-viewing task. In men, amygdala and vmPFC BOLD responses to anger faces were negatively associated. Our results extend past research by documenting associations between endogenous testosterone levels and BOLD responses to anger faces in the amygdala and vmPFC in men, and our results also support research that documents negative associations between amygdala and vmPFC activity.

Enhanced monitoring accuracy and test performance: Incremental effects of judgment training over and above repeated testing - Händel, Marion; Harder, Bettina; Dresel, Markus (Learning and Instruction, 2020)
From a self-regulated learning perspective, adequate monitoring of own learning processes and outcomes is crucial to regulate one's own learning effectively. Research on metacognitive judgments, however, clearly indicates that students frequently overestimate their actual performance. Therefore, the present study with N = 209 undergraduate students aimed to support students in developing accurate judgments in order to improve learning processes and, eventually, performance. A quasi-experimental design with three conditions (metacognitive training, testing, and control) and five testing sessions was implemented. In addition to repeated testing plus individual feedback in the testing group, students in the metacognitive training group received psychoeducation, made item-specific judgments, and were given feedback. Over and above the positive effects of repeated testing, metacognitive training positively influenced several monitoring accuracy scores (bias, absolute accuracy, and specificity) and students' performance. Moreover, the metacognitive training group exhibited a nonlinear interindividual decrease in overconfidence. Overall, the study provided considerable evidence that monitoring accuracy and performance can be improved by means of judgment training.

Enriching Cognitive Behavior Therapy with Emotion Regulation Training for Patients with Multiple Medically Unexplained Symptoms (ENCERT): Design and implementation of a multicenter, randomized, active-controlled trial - Kleinstaeber, Maria; Gottschalk, Japhia; Berking, Matthias; Rau, Joern; Rief, Winfried (Contemporary Clinical Trials, 2016)
Introduction: Although cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) is the best evidenced psychological treatment for medically unexplained symptoms (MUS), effect sizes are rather moderate. Empirically evidenced deficits in emotion processing in patients with MUS make a CBT enriched with an emotion regulation training (ENCERT) a promising approach to increase treatment effects. Methods and design: This protocol describes the development and implementation of a multicenter, randomized, active-controlled study with blinded outcome assessors to compare the efficacy of ENCERT with a conventional CBT for MUS. Individuals presenting with ≥ 3 disabling, chronic MUS and fulfilling other predefined inclusion criteria are randomized to 20 sessions either of ENCERT or conventional CBT. Power calculations are based on the severity index of the Screening of Somatoform Disorders-7T and obtained an optimal sample size of N= 244. Questionnaires on symptom severity, symptom-related psychological features, and emotion regulation skills are administered at baseline, end of therapy, and 6-months follow-up. An every-session monitoring of therapy progress, and regular patients'/therapists' ratings of quality of therapy, working alliance, outcome expectations, and adverse events are conducted. Primary statistical analysis shall verify the hypothesis of ENCERT being more efficacious than conventional CBT regarding symptom severity. Discussion: Enriching CBT with transdiagnostic therapeutic strategies addressing emotion regulation is a promising and new approach to target not only somatic symptom coping but also symptom-associated problems and comorbid mental disorders. The current trial will not only allow examining the efficacy of ENCERT but also important variables and mechanisms of the process of therapy.Trial registration: NCT01908855.

Entwicklungsdiagnostik im Alter: Wie kann man unauffällige kognitive Leistungen von pathologischen unterscheiden? - Stemmler, Mark; Horn, Ralf; Lehfeld, Hartmut; Petermann, Franz; Siebert, Jelena (Diagnostica, 2013)
An approach for the developmental psychological assessment of aging which is able to differentiate normal cognitive aging from pathological cognitive decline is presented.Aregression based approach by Zachary and Gorsuch (1985) was adopted. The analyses were based on data from a multi-center study of N=349 cognitively healthy elderly, aged between 60 and 90 years. Subjects were tested with the SKT (Erzigkeit, 1989), a test for the assessment of attention and memory, and two subtests from the German adaptation of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS-IV; Petermann, 2012), the matrix reasoning and the vocabulary subtest. Surprisingly, for the matrix reasoning subtest as well as for the vocabulary subtest, a significant cognitive decline depending on age emerged. All cognitive achievements were significantly correlated with attention, and also, but to a lesser degree, with memory. The results of the regression based approach suggested a valuable contribution to the developmental psychological assessment of aging. © 2013 Hogrefe Verlag, Göttingen.

This article provides an overview of concepts and empirical evaluation results of offender treatment since the 1960s. Many meta-analyses showed on average positive effects. Cognitive behavioral treatment programs and the risk-need-responsivity (RNR) model have the most solid evidence base but various other approaches are also promising. For sexual offenders the results are less uniform, in particular for treatment in prisons. The transfer from model projects into routine practice shows that many influences on effectiveness need to be considered, e.g. with respect to program content, context, participants, and evaluation method. The good lives model and desistance model do not need alternative paradigms but are well compatible with the extended RNR model and the what works approach. Within this framework, the article contains 12 proposals for empirically founded further development of offender treatment.

Equity Gaps in Education: Nine Points toward More Transparency - Ziegler, Albert; Kuo, Ching-Chih; Eu, Sen-Peng; Gläser-Zikuda, Michaela; Nunez, Miguelina; Yu, Hsiao-Ping; Harder, Bettina (Education Sciences, 2021)
The aim of this paper is to increase transparency in the scientific analysis of equity gaps in education. This should be useful in avoiding common ambiguities and misunderstandings in the discourse and in presenting the analyses results in a constructive way. We focused on a very basic aspect of transparency: Information availability. We identified nine topics related to the constitutive terms: "equity", "gap", and "education", topics for which information is often only implicitly or selectively transmitted or not transmitted at all. Regarding the constitutive term "equity", and as the possible sources of transparency problems, we analyzed (1) the type of equity model, (2) the underlying distribution model, and (3) the group concept between which equity gaps exist. For the clarification of the constitutive term "gap", we addressed (4) the applicability issue, (5) the indicator issue, (6) the reference issue, and (7) the significance issue. The last two sources of transparency problems were related to the constitutive term "education" and referred to (8) the location of the equity gap within or outside education and (9) the characterization of the equity gap within education. For each of the nine topics, we highlight the biggest problems of understanding and propose solutions.

Equity Gaps in Literacy among Elementary School Students from Two Countries: The Negative Social Resonance Effect of Intersectional Disadvantage and the Dampening Effect of Learning Capital - Ziegler, Albert; Luo, Linlin; Stoeger, Heidrun (Education Sciences, 2023)
Students may be members of multiple disadvantaged groups whose negative effects may reinforce each other (intersectionality). In two studies dealing with elementary students’ literacy skills, we examine one negative reinforcing effect and one dampening effect of intersectionality. In Study 1, we tested the negative social resonance effect of intersectional disadvantage, which means that disadvantages in achievement of intersecting disadvantaged groups would be stronger in social judgments of achievement than in objective measurement. This assumption was confirmed with a sample of 1926 German fourth-grade students. A MANOVA showed that the disadvantages in SES, migration background, and gender were cumulative. A path analysis revealed that the negative effects were larger in teachers’ performance assessments than in objective test performance in literacy. In Study 2, the negative social resonance effect of intersectional disadvantage was replicated with a sample of 777 students from Grades 4 and 5 in the United Arab Emirates. In addition, a dampening effect of learning capital was found. This effect was comparatively larger than the negative social resonance effect of intersectional disadvantage.

Erweiterung der kognitiven Verhaltenstherapie um Emotionsregulationstraining bei Patienten mit multiplen somatoformen Symptomen: Ergebnisse einer kontrollierten Pilotstudie - Gottschalk, Japhia-Marie; Bleichhardt, Gaby; Kleinstauber, Maria; Berking, Matthias; Rief, Winfried (Verhaltenstherapie, 2015)
Hintergrund: Kognitive Verhaltenstherapie (KVT) ist bei Patienten mit multiplen somatoformen Symptomen (MSS) erwiesenermaßen wirksam, bisher jedoch nur mit moderaten Effekten. Da sich bei diesen Patienten Hinweise für ein Emotionswahrnehmungsdefizit und Regulationsdefizit finden, wurde an der Universität Marburg ein Behandlungsmanual für Patienten mit MSS entwickelt, das KVT-Elemente und ein spezielles Emotionsregulationstraining verbindet. In diesem soll der Umgang mit Emotionen durch Strategien der bewertungsfreien Wahrnehmung, Akzeptanz und Achtsamkeit gefördert werden. Ziel der vorliegenden Studie war, die Durchführbarkeit des Behandlungsprogramms ENCERT (Enriching CBT with Emotion Regulation Training) zu testen sowie die Veränderungen über die Zeit unter ENCERT mit denen einer klassischen KVT zu vergleichen. Patienten und Methoden: 20 ENCERT-Patienten und 22 KVT-Patienten (mit ≥3 somatoformen Symptomen, seit ≥6 Monaten) nahmen im Rahmen einer nicht randomisierten Gruppenvergleichsstudie an 20 wöchentlichen Einzeltherapiesitzungen im ambulanten Setting teil. Zu Therapiebeginn und -ende wurden relevante Daten erhoben. Die primären Outcomemaße waren das Screening für somatoforme Störungen (SOMS-7T), der Fragebogen zur Selbsteinschätzung emotionaler Kompetenzen (SEK-27) und visuelle Analogskalen (VAS) zur Einschätzung der Symptomintensität und zur empfundenen Beeinträchtigung. Ergebnisse: Beide Gruppen verbesserten sich im Therapieverlauf signifikant bezüglich der Beeinträchtigungsintensität (ENCERT d = 0,70; KVT d = 0,46) und Beschwerdeanzahl (ENCERT d = 0,72; KVT d = 0,50). Gruppenunterschiede zu Therapieende zeigten sich nicht: Unter Berücksichtigung klinisch relevanter Baselinevariablen zeigte sich zu Therapieende ein Hinweis auf einen signifikanten Unterschied in der Beeinträchtigungsintensität (ANCOVA: F (1,37) = 4,058, p = 0,051; ENCERT überlegen). ENCERT-Patienten verbesserten sich zudem signifikant auf stündlich erhobenen visuellen Analogskalen (Beschwerdeintensität d = 0,59; Beeinträchtigung durch Beschwerden d = 1,25) und in ihren Emotionsregulationskompetenzen (d = 1,14). Schlussfolgerung: Patienten mit MSS verbesserten sich während ENCERT und KVT, mit tendenziell höheren Effektstärken für ENCERT, jedoch auch höheren Ausgangswerten in Depressivität und Angst. Gruppenunterschiede zeigten sich nicht, möglicherweise aufgrund geringer Power. Diese Ergebnisse ermutigen zur Durchführung einer größeren randomisierten und kontrollierten Multicenterstudie.

Erwerbsverläufe von Frauen und Männern in der Medizin. - Abele-Brehm, Andrea (Arbeitsbedingungen und Befinden von Ärztinnen und Ärzten. Befunde und Interventionen., 2010)
Ausgewählte Ergebnisse aus der Studie BELA-E (Berufliche Laufbahnentwicklung Erlanger Absolventinnen und Absolventen) zur beruflichen Entwicklung von Medizinerinnen und Medizinern über einen Zeitraum von 13 Jahren werden präsentiert. In sechs Befragungen machten die ursprünglich 312 Probandinnen und Probanden Angaben über ihre private und berufliche Entwicklung, eine Vielzahl von psychologischen Variablen und über ihre Arbeitsbedingungen. Zum letzten Befragungszeitpunkt waren noch 186 von ihnen an der Studie beteiligt. Die Ergebnisdarstellung umfasst neben der privaten und beruflichen Entwicklung Unterschiede zwischen Klinikärzten und niedergelassenen Ärzten sowie die Entwicklung der beruflichen Selbstwirksamkeit. Die Daten belegen, dass die beteiligten Ärztinnen mehr Abstriche im Privatleben (Partnerschaft, Kinder) machten als ihre männlichen Kollegen. Medizinerinnen waren bei gleichen Ausgangsvoraussetzungen (Noten, Studiendauer, berufliches Selbstvertrauen) häufiger erwerbslos, teilzeitbeschäftigt und seltener in Führungspositionen als Mediziner. Das Berufsfeld Klinik wurde von Ärztinnen und Ärzten gleichermaßen als weniger befriedigend und einengender erlebt als das Berufsfeld Praxis. Ärztinnen verließen das Berufsfeld Klinik häufiger als Ärzte. Während die Entwicklung des beruflichen Selbstvertrauens bei Ärzten im Laufe der Studie positiv ausfiel, lag bei den Ärztinnen eher eine ungünstige Entwicklung vor. Gründe für den Schereneffekt in der beruflichen Entwicklung von Klinikärztinnen und Klinikärzten werden erörtetert, und vier Ansatzpunkte zur Verbesserung der Arbeitsbedingungen in der Klinik - insbesondere für Ärztinnen - werden benannt.

Evaluating a hybrid web-based training program for panic disorder and agoraphobia: Randomized controlled trial - Ebenfeld, Lara; Lehr, Dirk; Ebert, David Daniel; Stegemann, Stefan Kleine; Riper, Heleen; Funk, Burkhardt; Berking, Matthias (Journal of Medical Internet Research, 2021)
Background: Previous studies provide evidence for the effectiveness of web-based interventions for panic disorder with and without agoraphobia. Smartphone-based technologies hold significant potential for further enhancing the accessibility and efficacy of such interventions. Objective: This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of a guided, hybrid web-based training program based on cognitive behavioral therapy for adults with symptoms of panic disorder. Methods: Participants (N=92) with total scores in the Panic and Agoraphobia Scale ranging from 9 to 28 were recruited from the general population and allocated either to a hybrid intervention (GET.ON Panic) or to a wait-list control group. The primary outcome was the reduction in panic symptoms, as self-assessed using a web-based version of the Panic and Agoraphobia Scale. Results: Analysis of covariance-based intention-to-treat analyses revealed a significantly stronger decrease in panic symptoms posttreatment (F=9.77; P=.002; Cohen d=0.66; 95% CI 0.24-1.08) in the intervention group than in the wait-list control group. Comparisons between groups of the follow-up measures at 3 and 6 months yielded even stronger effects (3-month follow-up: F=17.40, P<.001, Cohen d=0.89, 95% CI 0.46-1.31; 6-month follow-up: F=14.63, P<.001, Cohen d=0.81, 95% CI 0.38-1.24). Conclusions: Hybrid web-based training programs may help reduce the symptoms of panic disorder and hence play an important role in improving health care for patients with this debilitating disorder.

Evaluating a multimodal, clinical and work-directed intervention (RTW-PIA) to support sustainable return to work among employees with mental disorders: study protocol of a multicentre, randomised controlled trial - Starke, Fiona; Sikora, Alexandra; Stegmann, Ralf; Knebel, Leonie; Buntrock, Claudia; de Rijk, Angelique; Houkes, Inge; Szycik, Gregor R.; Unger, Hans Peter; Schumacher, Jan Ole; Stark, Heiko; Hauth, Iris; et al. (BMC Psychiatry, 2023)
Background: Mental disorders (MDs) are one of the leading causes for workforce sickness absence and disability worldwide. The burden, costs and challenges are enormous for the individuals concerned, employers and society at large. Although most MDs are characterised by a high risk of relapse after treatment or by chronic courses, interventions that link medical-psychotherapeutic approaches with work-directed components to facilitate a sustainable return to work (RTW) are rare. This protocol describes the design of a study to evaluate the (cost-)effectiveness and implementation process of a multimodal, clinical and work-directed intervention, called RTW-PIA, aimed at employees with MDs to achieve sustainable RTW in Germany. Methods: The study consists of an effectiveness, a health-economic and a process evaluation, designed as a two-armed, multicentre, randomised controlled trial, conducted in German psychiatric outpatient clinics. Sick-listed employees with MDs will receive either the 18-month RTW-PIA treatment in conjunction with care as usual, or care as usual only. RTW-PIA consists of a face-to-face individual RTW support, RTW aftercare group meetings, and web-based aftercare. Assessments will be conducted at baseline and 6, 12, 18 and 24 months after completion of baseline survey. The primary outcome is the employees´ achievement of sustainable RTW, defined as reporting less than six weeks of working days missed out due to sickness absence within 12 months after first RTW. Secondary outcomes include health-related quality of life, mental functioning, RTW self-efficacy, overall job satisfaction, severity of mental illness and work ability. The health-economic evaluation will be conducted from a societal and public health care perspective, as well as from the employer’s perspective in a cost–benefit analysis. The design will be supplemented by a qualitative effect evaluation using pre- and post-interviews, and a multimethod process evaluation examining various predefined key process indicators from different stakeholder perspectives. Discussion: By applying a comprehensive, multimethodological evaluation design, this study captures various facets of RTW-PIA. In case of promising results for sustainable RTW, RTW-PIA may be integrated into standard care within German psychiatric outpatient clinics. Trial registration: The study was prospectively registered with the German Clinical Trials Register (DRKS00026232 , 1 September 2021).

Discussion: There is a need to identify effective low-threshold solutions to improve ill-health and reduce the negative economic consequences due to problematic alcohol drinking in workforces. If the proposed web-based intervention proves both to be efficacious and cost-effective, it may be a useful tool to increase utilization rates of interventions for problematic drinking in occupational settings.

BACKGROUND Major depressive disorder (MDD) imposes a considerable disease burden on individuals and societies. Web-based interventions have shown to be effective in reducing depressive symptom severity. However, it is not known whether web-based interventions may also be effective in preventing the onset of MDD. The aim of this study is to evaluate the (cost-) effectiveness of an indicated web-based guided self-help intervention (GET.ON Mood Enhancer Prevention) on the onset of MDD. METHODS/DESIGN A randomised controlled trial (RCT) will be conducted to compare the (cost-) effectiveness of the GET.ON Mood Enhancer Prevention training with a control condition exclusively receiving online-based psychoeducation on depression. Adults with subthreshold depression (N = 406) will be recruited from the general population and randomised to one of the two conditions. The primary outcome is time to onset of MDD within a 12-months follow-up period. MDD will be assessed according to DSM-IV criteria as assessed by the telephone-administered Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV (SCID). Time to onset of MDD will be assessed using life charts. Secondary outcomes include changes on various indicators of depressive symptom severity, anxiety and quality of life from baseline to post-treatment, to a 6-month and a 12-month follow up. Additionally, an economic evaluation using a societal perspective will be conducted to examine the intervention's cost-effectiveness. DISCUSSION This is one of the first randomised controlled trials that examines the effect of an indicated guided self-help web-based intervention on the incidence of major depression. If shown to be effective, the intervention will contribute to reducing the disease burden due to MDD in the general population. TRIAL REGISTRATION German Clinical Trial Registration DRKS00004709.

Evaluating the feasibility and exploring the efficacy of an emotion-based approach-avoidance modification training (eAAMT) in the context of perceived stress in an adult sample — protocol of a parallel randomized controlled pilot study - Keinert, Marie; Eskofier, Björn; Schuller, Björn W.; Böhme, Stephanie; Berking, Matthias (Pilot and Feasibility Studies, 2023)
Background: Stress levels and thus the risk of developing related physical and mental health conditions are rising worldwide. Dysfunctional beliefs contribute to the development of stress. Potentially, such beliefs can be modified with approach-avoidance modification trainings (AAMT). As previous research indicates that effects of AAMTs are small, there is a need for innovative ways of increasing the efficacy of these interventions. For this purpose, we aim to evaluate the feasibility of the intervention and study design and explore the efficacy of an innovative emotion-based AAMT version (eAAMT) that uses the display of emotions to move stress-inducing beliefs away from and draw stress-reducing beliefs towards oneself. Methods: We will conduct a parallel randomized controlled pilot study at the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany. Individuals with elevated stress levels will be randomized to one of eight study conditions (n = 10 per condition) — one of six variants of the eAAMT, an active control intervention (swipe-based AAMT), or an inactive control condition. Participants in the intervention groups will engage in four sessions of 20–30 min (e)AAMT training on consecutive days. Participants in the inactive control condition will complete the assessments via an online tool. Non-blinded assessments will be taken directly before and after the training and 1 week after training completion. The primary outcome will be perceived stress. Secondary outcomes will be dysfunctional beliefs, symptoms of depression, emotion regulation skills, and physiological stress measures. We will compute effect sizes and conduct mixed ANOVAs to explore differences in change in outcomes between the eAAMT and control conditions. Discussion: The study will provide valuable information to improve the intervention and study design. Moreover, if shown to be effective, the approach can be used as an automated smartphone-based intervention. Future research needs to identify target groups benefitting from this intervention utilized either as stand-alone treatment or an add-on intervention that is combined with other evidence-based treatments. Trial registration: The trial has been registered in the German Clinical Trials Register (Deutsches Register Klinischer Studien; DRKS00023007 ; September 7, 2020).

Evaluation of the Self on the Big Two and their Facets: Exploring the Model and its Nomological Network - Abele, Andrea E. (International Review of Social Psychology, 2022)
Social evaluation of the self, of others, and of groups rests on two dimensions, also called ‘the Big Two’ (Horizontal: Communion, Warmth; Vertical: Agency, Competence). These Big Two have recently been broken down into two facets each. The Vertical dimension comprises Ability and Assertiveness, the Horizontal dimension Friendliness and Morality (Abele et al., 2008, 2016, 2021). In three studies, the present paper further explores this dimensions/facets conceptualization. We ask if the facets add explanatory power over and above the dimensions; and we analyze a number of criterion variables not considered before. Participants always had to rate themselves on the dimensions/facets and answered additional measures. These were social desirable responding and item valence. These are interesting from a methodological point of view. Self-efficacy and dominance orientation (vertical facets) and social value orientation (horizontal facets) were of interest with respect to the distinction of the facets. Finally, life satisfaction and self-awareness were analyzed as more remote constructs. Findings supported the dimension/facets model; they supported the construct validity of the Big Two; they supported the construct validity of the facets; and they revealed instances, under which distinguishing between the facets is promising. Further research perspectives regarding targets of evaluation and regarding construct validity particularly of the Horizontal facets are outlined. We summarize that the facet conceptualization is an important extension of the prominent Big Two approach.

Evaluation of the socially evaluated cold-pressor group test (SECPT-G) in the general population - Becker, Linda; Schade, Ursula; Rohleder, Nicolas (PeerJ, 2019)
Background In stress research, economic instruments for introducing acute stress responses are needed. In this study, we investigated whether the socially evaluated cold-pressor group test (SECPT-G) induces salivary alpha-amylase (sAA) and/or cortisol responses in the general population and whether this is associated with anthropometric, experimental, and lifestyle factors. Methods A sample of 91 participants from the general population was recruited. Salivary cortisol and sAA levels were assessed prior to (t0), immediately after (t1), and 10 min after the SECPT-G (t2). Results A robust cortisol increase was found immediately after the SECPT-G, which further increased between t1 and t2. This was independent of most of the control variables. However, men showed a trend toward higher cortisol increases than women (p = 0.005). No sAA responses were found at all. However, sAA levels were dependent on measurement time point with highest levels between 9 pm and 9:30 pm. Participants who immersed their hands into the ice water for the maximally allowed time of 3 min showed higher sAA levels at all time points than participants who removed their hands from the water earlier. Conclusions We conclude that the SECPT-G is a good means of an acute stress test when cortisol—but not necessarily sAA—responses are intended.

Everything under Control? the Impact of Electronic Monitoring Type and Social Norms on Privacy and Reactance - Wolff, Mauren; Niessen, Cornelia (Journal of Personnel Psychology, 2023)
Digitalization enables continuous monitoring of not only work processes but also employees' cognitive, emotional, and behavioral activities. This study investigated how different types of electronic monitoring affect employees' privacy and reactance and how social norms regarding electronic monitoring (opposition or support) shape these reactions. In a scenario study, we found higher privacy invasion and reactance when not solely screen time was monitored, but screen activity via screenshots or social interactions via face reader. The social norm did not influence these relations. However, we found strong compliance with the social norm of rejecting electronic monitoring, indicating a strong negative attitude toward electronic monitoring. The results suggest that invasiveness of electronic performance monitoring beyond screen time monitoring is perceived as high privacy-invasive and comparatively reactance-evoking.

Evidence for a Robust, Estradiol-Associated Sex Difference in Narrative-Writing Fluency - Schultheiss, Oliver; Köllner, Martin; Busch, Holger; Hofer, Jan (Neuropsychology, 2021)
Objective: Despite evidence for an estradiol-linked sex difference in verbal fluency favoring women, recent reviews question this difference. We therefore examined the issue based on a narrative task that we have administered to different populations for over 20 years. Method: We meta-analyzed 98 studies (N = 11,528) conducted by our laboratories and that featured measures of biological sex and storytelling. We ran primary-data analyses (N = 797) on an overlapping subset of these studies that also included salivary hormone and digit ratio measures. Results: Women told longer stories than men, d = 0.31, 95% CI [0.24, 0.38], an effect that did not vary by geographic region but was moderated by cue type (verbal: d = 0.57, [0.44, 0.71]; pictures: d = 0.29, [0.22, 0.36]), response modality (oral: d = -0.04, [-0.18, 0.09]; handwriting: d = 0.39, [0.31, 0.47]; typing: d = 0.31, [0.21, 0.42]), and age (prepubertal children: d = 0.13, [-0.04, 0.30]; pubescents: d = 0.48, [0.23, 0.74]; premenopausal adults: d = 0.36, [0.29, 0.42]; postmenopausal adults: d = -0.09, [-0.35, 0.16]). Consistent with the age effect, estradiol, a sex-dimorphic hormone during the reproductive life stage, was a specific mediator of the sex difference in narrative-writing fluency. This mediation effect was moderated by prenatal hormone exposure, estimated via digit ratio. Conclusions: When verbal fluency is assessed through narrative writing, a robust female advantage becomes evident. It is associated with the reproductive life stage and variations in current estradiol concentrations, particularly in individuals prenatally exposed to relatively more estradiol than testosterone.

Examining differential responses to the Take Care of Me trial: A latent class and moderation analysis - Frohlich, Jona R.; Rapinda, Karli K.; Schaub, Michael P.; Wenger, Andreas; Baumgartner, Christian; Johnson, Edward A.; Blankers, Matthijs; Ebert, David; Hadjistavropoulos, Heather D.; Mackenzie, Corey S.; Wardell, Jeffrey D.; Edgerton, Jason D.; et al. (Addictive Behaviors Reports, 2022)
Given prevalent alcohol misuse-emotional comorbidities among young adults, we developed an internet-based integrated treatment called Take Care of Me. Although the treatment had an impact on several secondary outcomes, effects were not observed for the primary outcome. Therefore, the goal of the current study was to examine heterogeneity in treatment responses. The initial RCT randomized participants to either a treatment or psychoeducational control condition. We conducted an exploratory latent class analysis to distinguish individuals based on pre-treatment risk and then used moderated regressions to examine differential treatment responses based on class membership. We found evidence for three distinct groups. Most participants fell in the “low severity” group (n = 123), followed by the “moderate severity” group (n = 57) who had a higher likelihood of endorsing a previous mental health diagnosis and treatment and higher symptom severity than the low group. The “high severity” group (n = 42) endorsed a family history of alcoholism, and the highest symptom severity and executive dysfunction. Moderated regressions revealed significant class differences in treatment responses. In the treatment condition, high severity (relative to low) participants reported higher alcohol consumption and hazardous drinking and lower quality of life at follow-up, whereas moderate severity (relative to low) individuals had lower alcohol consumption at follow-up, and lower hazardous drinking at end-of-treatment. No class differences were found for participants in the control group. Higher risk individuals in the treatment condition had poorer responses to the program. Tailoring interventions to severity may be important to examine in future research.

Examining risk and resilience factors for depression: The role of self-criticism and self-compassion - Ehret, Anna; Joormann, Jutta; Berking, Matthias (Cognition & Emotion, 2015)
Whereas self-criticism has been proposed as an important risk factor for major depressive disorder (MDD), self-compassion has been suggested as a resilience factor that protects against the development and maintenance of depressive episodes. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that frequent self-criticism and low habitual self-compassion are related to concurrent depression and to vulnerability to depression by comparing groups of currently, remitted and never depressed individuals. As expected, both currently and remitted depressed individuals reported higher levels of self-criticism and lower self-compassion than never depressed controls. Individual differences in self-criticism and self-compassion were related to depression status above and beyond additional potential correlates of MDD (i.e., perfectionistic beliefs and cognitions, rumination and overall adaptive emotion regulation). The findings provide support for the idea that increased self-criticism and decreased self-compassion place certain individuals at increased risk for experiencing depression repeatedly or chronically over the course of their lives.

Examining the effectiveness of a web-based intervention for symptoms of depression and anxiety in college students: Study protocol of a randomised controlled trial - Karyotaki, Eirini; Klein, Anke M.; Riper, Heleen; Wit, Leonore De; Krijnen, Lisa; Bol, Eline; Bolinski, Felix; Burger, Simone; Ebert, David; Auerbach, Randy P.; Kessler, Ronald C.; Bruffaerts, Ronny; et al. (BMJ Open, 2019)
Introduction The college years are a peak period for the onset of common mental disorders. Poor mental health is associated with low academic attainment, physical, interpersonal and cognitive impairments. Universities can use online approaches to screen students for mental disorders and treat those in need. The present study aims to assess the effectiveness of a guided web-based transdiagnostic individually tailored intervention to treat students with symptoms of depression and/or anxiety. Methods and analysis The present study is a randomised controlled trial. Participants are Dutch college students (≥18 years) with mild to moderate depression and/or anxiety symptoms. The intervention is a guided web-based transdiagnostic individually tailored intervention that targets symptoms of depression and/or anxiety. The intervention consists of seven online sessions with a duration ranging from 4 to 7 weeks depending on individual progress. A booster session is administered 4 weeks after the completion of the seventh session. Primary outcome measures are the Patient Health Questionnaire for depression and the Generalised Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale for anxiety. These scales are administered at screening, post-treatment and follow-up assessments (6 and 12 months post-randomisation). Ethics and dissemination The Medical Ethics Committee of the Vrije Universiteit Medical Centre has approved the protocol (registration number 2016.583, A2017.362andA2018.421). Results of the trial will be published in a peer-reviewed journal. Trial registration number NTR6797; Pre-results.

Examining the Theoretical Framework of Behavioral Activation for Major Depressive Disorder: Smartphone-Based Ecological Momentary Assessment Study - Van Genugten, Claire Rosalie; Schuurmans, Josien; Hoogendoorn, Adriaan W.; Araya, Ricardo; Andersson, Gerhard; Banos, Rosa; Botella, Cristina; Pashoja, Arlinda Cerga; Cieslak, Roman; Ebert, David Daniel; Garcia-Palacios, Azucena; Hazo, Jean-Baptiste; et al. (JMIR Mental Health, 2021)
Background: Behavioral activation (BA), either as a stand-alone treatment or as part of cognitive behavioral therapy, has been shown to be effective for treating depression. The theoretical underpinnings of BA derive from Lewinsohn et al's theory of depression. The central premise of BA is that having patients engage in more pleasant activities leads to them experiencing more pleasure and elevates their mood, which, in turn, leads to further (behavioral) activation. However, there is a dearth of empirical evidence about the theoretical framework of BA.

Executive functioning as a predictor of physiological and subjective acute stress responses in non-clinical adult populations: A systematic literature review and meta-analysis - Grimm, Elise; Agrigoroaei, Stefan; Rohleder, Nicolas; Becker, Linda (Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews, 2021)
The goal of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate whether executive functioning predicts subsequent acute stress responses. A systematic search (conducted between May 22nd and 30th, 2019; updated on April 4th, 2020) on Cochrane, OpenGray, Proquest Dissertations and Thesis Global, PsycInfo, Pubmed, Scopus, and Web of Science revealed 27 correlational and five interventional studies. For quality appraisal, we used the BIOCROSS Tool, the Quality Assessment Tool for Observational Cohort and Cross-Sectional Studies, and the Revised Cochrane Risk-of-bias Tool for Randomized Trials. Attentional control was most consistently associated with acute stress. A robust variation estimation meta-analysis, conducted when sufficient data was available, revealed a small, significant, and negative correlation between higher working memory and subsequent lower cortisol reactivity (r = .09, p = .025, 95 % CI [0.15, 0.02]). These results highlight the role of executive functioning for acute stress responses, the scarcity of relevant data, and the need for both interventional designs and the consideration of mediators and moderators to understand underlying mechanism

Expanding crossover research: The crossover of job-related self-efficacy within couples - Niessen, Cornelia; Sonnentag, Sabine; Unger, Dana; Neff, Angela (Human Relations, 2013)
This article reports a study that examined the crossover of job-related self-efficacy within working couples, its underlying mechanisms, and its work-related consequences. We proposed that the job-related self-efficacy of one partner (the 'actor') can be transmitted to the other partner (the 'partner'). By building on self-efficacy research (Bandura, 1997), we hypothesized vicarious experience and verbal persuasion to be the mediators underlying this crossover process. We expected that the crossover of job-related self-efficacy would in turn result in the partner's altered engagement at work. Using a sample of 102 professionals with an academic degree and their working partners, we conducted multilevel analyses using the actor-partner interdependence model. Our analyses offered support for our hypotheses. The actor's job-related self-efficacy related positively to the partner's job-related self-efficacy. This relation was mediated by the partner's perceived vicarious experience and verbal persuasion. Additionally, the actor's job-related self-efficacy indirectly related to the partner's work engagement through the partner's job-related self-efficacy. © The Author(s) 2013.

Experiences in Disseminating Evidence-Based Prevention Programs in a Real-World Setting - Frantz, Inga; Stemmler, Mark; Hahlweg, Kurt; Plück, Julia; Heinrichs, Nina (Prevention Science, 2015)
The primary aim of family-based prevention programs is to promote children's health. Unfortunately, it is difficult to reach families with such evidence-based prevention programs (EBP). Therefore, implementing EBP on a population level could be a promising approach to reach more families, including those faced with socioeconomic challenges who are usually less likely to participate in randomized controlled trials (RCT). Is a population rollout appropriate to reach more and different families than those participating in RCT, especially those representative of the target population? We implemented three EBP in a city in an uncontrolled trial. The effects of this population rollout were tracked on the level of the participating families and on the level of all families living in the city. More than 3480 families (30 % of the population) with children up to 12 years of age participated based on practitioner report. Analyses indicate that a greater percentage of low socioeconomic-status families attended a program compared with a randomly surveyed sample from the city's general population. The sizes of the within-subject effect for parental strategies, child behavior problems, and children's quality of life for a subsample of n = 411 families were similar to those of other uncontrolled EBP studies. The study contributes to highly needed type 2 translation research. The population-based dissemination of EBP could be a promising approach to reach families at risk. However, there are considerable barriers to the implementation process, which currently limit the effectiveness of this rollout in a community.

Experimental criminology: looking back and forward on the 20th anniversary of the Academy of Experimental Criminology - Farrington, David P.; Lösel, Friedrich; Braga, Anthony A.; Mazerolle, Lorraine; Raine, Adrian; Sherman, Lawrence W.; Weisburd, David (Journal of Experimental Criminology, 2019)
Objectives: This article summarizes key points made in a panel at the American Society of Criminology (ASC) meeting in Atlanta in November 2018, entitled “20th Anniversary of the Academy of Experimental Criminology (AEC): Looking Back and Forward,” organized by Friedrich Lösel as the AEC president. Method: Seven (current and former) presidents of AEC contribute short papers about the past and future of experimental criminology, focusing on different and emerging areas of criminological experimentation, as well as identifying topics that require more attention in future, including field experiments and experimental neurocriminology. Results: This article informs readers about the history of AEC, its links with the Journal of Experimental Criminology, current issues, and potential future developments in experimental criminology. It also briefly deals with arguments that question whether experiments are the “gold standard,” which were addressed by Daniel Nagin and Robert Sampson in another ASC session at Atlanta. Experimental panel members did not view randomized controlled trials (RCTs) as a ritualized and general “gold standard” for criminological research, because many important topics cannot be investigated in this type of design. Conclusions: This article is not intended to be a missionary statement for RCTs, but it does argue that experiments should be used whenever feasible, because they are most robust in ensuring internal validity as the basis for external validity and for generalizations that are necessary for effective practice and policy making.

Expertise in software design - Sonnentag, Sabine; Niessen, Cornelia; Volmer, Judith (Cambridge handbook of expertise and expert performance, 2006)
In this chapter, we review research evidence on expertise in software design, computer programming, and related tasks. Research in this domain is particularly interesting because it refers both to rather general features and processes associated with expertise (e.g., knowledge representation, problem-solving strategies) and to specific characteristics of high performers in an economically relevant real-world setting. Therefore, in this chapter we draw on literature from various £elds, mainly from cognitive psychology, but also from work and organizational psychology and from the software-design literature within computer science. Our chapter is organized as follows: In the first main section we provide a brief description of the domain and give an overview of tasks in software development. Next, we briefly describe the expertise concept and distinguish between a conceptualization of expertise as years of experience and expertise as high performance. The third main se ction is the core part of this chapter. In this section, we review empirical research on expertise in tasks such as software design, programming, program comprehension, testing, and debugging. Moreover, we describe how expert performers differ from non-experts with respect to knowledge as well as communication and cooperation processes. In the final section, we present directions for future research and discuss some practical implications.

Explanatory machine learning for justified trust in human-AI collaboration: Experiments on file deletion recommendations - Göbel, Kyra; Niessen, Cornelia; Seufert, Sebastian; Schmid, Ute (Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence, 2022)
In the digital age, saving and accumulating large amounts of digital data is a common phenomenon. However, saving does not only consume energy, but may also cause information overload and prevent people from staying focused and working effectively. We present and systematically examine an explanatory AI system (Dare2Del), which supports individuals to delete irrelevant digital objects. To give recommendations for the optimization of related human-computer interactions, we vary different design features (explanations, familiarity, verifiability) within and across three experiments (N1 = 61, N2 = 33, N3= 73). Moreover, building on the concept of distributed cognition, we check possible cross-connections between external (digital) and internal (human) memory. Specifically, we examine whether deleting external files also contributes to human forgetting of the related mental representations. Multilevel modeling results show the importance of presenting explanations for the acceptance of deleting suggestions in all three experiments, but also point to the need of their verifiability to generate trust in the system. However, we did not find clear evidence that deleting computer files contributes to human forgetting of the related memories. Based on our findings, we provide basic recommendations for the design of AI systems that can help to reduce the burden on people and the digital environment, and suggest directions for future research.

Depression is a prevalent and debilitating mental health condition that requires accurate and efficient detection for timely and effective treatment. In this study, we utilized the E-DAIC (Extended Distress Analysis Interview Corpus-Wizard-of-Oz) dataset, an extended version of the DAIC-WOZ dataset, which consists of semi-clinical interviews conducted by an animated virtual interviewer called Ellie, controlled by a human interviewer in another room. With 275 participants, the E-DAIC dataset represents a valuable resource for investigating depression detection methods. Our aim is to predict PHQ-8 scores through text analysis. Leveraging state-of-the-art speech processing, LLM-based text summarization, and a specialized depression detection module, we demonstrate the transformative potential of language data analysis in enhancing depression screening. By overcoming the limitations of manual feature extraction methods, our automated techniques provide a more efficient and effective means of evaluating depression. In our evaluation, we achieve robust accuracy on the development set of the E-DAIC dataset, with a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 3.65 in estimating PHQ-8 scores from recorded interviews. This remarkable performance highlights the efficacy of our approach in automatically predicting depression severity. Our research contributes to the growing evidence supporting the use of LLMs in mental health assessment, showcasing the role of innovative technologies in advancing patient care for depression.<br

Still, many university students are reluctant to use eMHSs. Narrative messages may help increase the awareness and acceptance of quality-approved programs. However, little is known about the usefulness of narrative messages to improve attitudes towards eMHSs. In this experiment, we thus aimed to explore in how far different ways of targeting information to students affect their attitudes towards eMHSs for stress prevention and therapy, and to identify potential determinants of attitude change. N = 451 students (Mean = 32.6 years, SD = 10.2, 75% female, 7% with eMHS experience) were randomly assigned to one of four study arms involving information designed to induce different levels of perceived similarity. While the active control condition only received general information (arm 1, “information only”, n = 116), the other experimental arms were additionally exposed to testimonials on specific eMHSs either addressing an unspecified audience (arm 2, n = 112), employees (arm 3, n = 115) or working university students (arm 4, n = 108). Two-way ANOVA revealed no impact of information on the alteration of attitudes towards eMHSs for stress coping (d = 0.20). Only a small effect of target-group specific testimonials on attitudes towards online therapies was identified at post-intervention (d = 0.29). Regression analyses demonstrated significant influences of source credibility and perceived similarity on attitudes for preventative eMHSs (ps<0.01), as well as a partial mediation effect of perceived similarity in favor of testimonials targeted to students (95% CI [0.22, 0.50]). Overall, this study indicated no meaningful impact of information on attitudes and limited evidence for benefits of tailored narrative messages. Since attitudes were already positive at baseline, further research with a representative student sample mimicking real-world decision scenarios is needed to gain an in-depth understanding of acceptance-facilitating message features that may contribute to promote the adoption of evidence-based eMHSs.

Exposition aus Sicht niedergelassener Verhaltenstherapeutinnen und Verhaltenstherapeuten: Anwendung und systemische Barrieren [Utilization and barriers of exposure in private practice: The perspective of behavioral psychotherapists ] - Pittig, Andre; Hoyer, Juergen (Zeitschrift für Klinische Psychologie und Psychotherapie, 2017)
Background: Exposure-based interventions are one of the most effective techniques for the treatment of anxiety disorders. Previous research, however, indicated that exposure is rarely utilized in routine care. Barriers that prevent the utilization of exposure in routine care have not been systematically examined. Method: The present study aimed to assess barriers of exposure utilization related to the German health-care system as well as favored changes from the perspective of behavioral therapists working in routine care. Barriers and self-reported frequency of exposure utilization were assessed via postal survey (N = 684). Results: Self-reported utilization indicated that some form of exposure was utilized in less than half of the treatments focusing on an anxiety disorder (46.8 %), which varied strongly between therapists. If utilized, exposure was mainly conducted in the clinician's office, for an average of 1 hr per exposure exercise, and at a weekly or biweekly frequency. More frequent utilization was associated with younger age, a lower number of years working as a therapist, and a higher number of exposure-related hours during clinical training and qualification. Frequent barriers were especially related to financial factors and the effort-compensation ratio, uncertainties about legal liability when conducting exposure outside one's office, and a limited amount of insurance-granted sessions. Conclusion: Exposure for anxiety disorders still seems to be less frequently and intensively utilized as suggested by current evidenced-based practice guidelines. A variety of barriers within the health-care system hamper the utilization by behavioral therapists working in routine care.

Face masks reduce interpersonal distance in virtual reality - Kroczek, Leon O.H.; Böhme, Stephanie; Mühlberger, Andreas (Scientific Reports, 2022)
During the COVID-19 pandemic several behavioral measures have been implemented to reduce viral transmission. While these measures reduce the risk of infections, they may also increase risk behavior. Here, we experimentally investigate the influence of face masks on physical distancing. Eighty-four participants with or without face masks passed virtual agents in a supermarket environment to reach a target while interpersonal distance was recorded. Agents differed in wearing face masks and age (young, elderly). In addition, situational constraints varied in whether keeping a distance of 1.5 m required an effortful detour or not. Wearing face masks (both self and other) reduced physical distancing. This reduction was most prominent when keeping the recommended distance was effortful, suggesting an influence of situational constraints. Similarly, increased distances to elderly were only observed when keeping a recommended distance was effortless. These findings highlight contextual constraints in compensation behavior and have important implications for safety policies.

Face-to-face: Perceived personal relevance amplifies face processing - Bublatzky, Florian; Pittig, Andre; Schupp, Harald T.; Alpers, Georg W. (Social cognitive and affective neuroscience, 2017)
The human face conveys emotional and social information, but it is not well understood how these two aspects influence face perception. In order to model a group situation, two faces displaying happy, neutral or angry expressions were presented. Importantly, faces were either facing the observer, or they were presented in profile view directed towards, or looking away from each other. In Experiment 1 (n = 64), face pairs were rated regarding perceived relevance, wish-to-interact, and displayed interactivity, as well as valence and arousal. All variables revealed main effects of facial expression (emotional > neutral), face orientation (facing observer > towards > away) and interactions showed that evaluation of emotional faces strongly varies with their orientation. Experiment 2 (n = 33) examined the temporal dynamics of perceptual- attentional processing of these face constellations with event-related potentials. Processing of emotional and neutral faces differed significantly in N170 amplitudes, early posterior negativity (EPN), and sustained positive potentials. Importantly, selective emotional face processing varied as a function of face orientation, indicating early emotion-specific (N170, EPN) and late threat-specific effects (LPP, sustained positivity). Taken together, perceived personal relevance to the observer- conveyed by facial expression and face direction-amplifies emotional face processing within triadic group situations.

Facets of the fundamental content dimensions: Agency with competence and assertiveness - communion with warmth and morality. - Abele-Brehm, Andrea; Hauke, Nicole; Peters, Kim; Louvet, Eva; Szymkow, Aleksandra; Duan, Yanping (Frontiers in Psychology, 2016)
Agency (A) and communion (C) are fundamental content dimensions. We propose a facet-model that differentiates A into assertiveness (AA) and competence (AC) and C into warmth (CW) and morality (CM). We tested the model in a cross-cultural study by comparing data from Asia, Australia, Europe, and the USA (overall N = 1.808). Exploratory and conﬁrmatory factor analyses supported our model. Both the two-factor model and the four-factor model showed good ﬁt indices across countries. Participants answered additional measures intended to demonstrate the fruitfulness of distinguishing the facets. The ﬁndings support the model’s construct validity by positioning the fundamental dimensions and their facets within a network of self-construal, values, impression management, and the Big Five personality factors: In all countries, A was related to independent self-construal and to agentic values, C was related to interdependent self-construal and to communal values. Regarding the facets, AA was always related to A values, but the association of AC with A values fell below our effect size criterion in four of the ﬁve countries. A (both AA and AC) was related to agentic impression management. However, C (both CW and CM) was neither related to communal nor to agentic impression management. Regarding the Big Five personality factors, A was related to emotional stability, to extraversion, and to conscientiousness. C was related to agreeableness and to extraversion. AA was more strongly related to emotional stability and extraversion than AC. CW was more strongly related to extraversion and agreeableness than CM. We could also show that self-esteem was more related to AA than AC; and that it was related to CM, but not to CW. Our research shows that (a) the fundamental dimensions of A and C are stable across cultures; and (b) that the here proposed distinction of facets of A and C is fruitful in analyzing self-perception. The here proposed measure, the AC-IN, may be a useful tool in this research area. Applications of the facet model in social perception research are discusse

Factors contributing to gender differences in depressive symptoms: A test of three developmental models - Seiffge-Krenke, Inge; Stemmler, Mark Kurt (Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 2002)
In a longitudinal study on 115 early adolescents, the impact of major events, relationship stressors, and coping style in interaction with biological changes on depressive outcome in late adolescence were explored. Three developmental models proposed by Nolen-Hoeksema and Girgus (1994, Psychol. Bull. 115: 424–433), which attempt to explain the emergence of gender differences in adolescent depressive symptoms, were tested. Multiple regression analyses conducted to test Model 1 identified two etiological factors associated with gender differences of depression, namely, stress in the adolescent–mother relationship and a more negative body image. Tests of Model 2 revealed etiological factors which correlated with depression in adolescent girls but not adolescent boys. The correlational patterns of avoidant coping and body image emerged as relevant factors for Model 2. Finally, tests of Model 3 searched for factors which were more likely to be observed in adolescent girls than boys and which would put girls at risk should they interact with a third etiological factor. Early maturational timing emerged as a factor for Model 3.

Familiarity affects the same event-related brain potential components in note readers and non-note readers - Becker, Linda (Music & Science, 2018)
Musical expertise can lead to neural plasticity in specific cognitive domains (e.g., in auditory music perception). However, not much is known about whether the visual perception of simple musical symbols (e.g., notes) already differs between musicians and non-musicians. This was the aim of the present study. Therefore, the Familiarity Effect (FE) – an effect which occurs quite early during visual processing and which is based on prior knowledge or expertise – was investigated. The FE describes the phenomenon that it is easier to find an unfamiliar element (e.g., a mirrored eighth note) in familiar elements (e.g., normally oriented eighth notes) than to find a familiar element in a background of unfamiliar elements. It was examined whether the strength of the FE for eighth notes differs between note readers and non-note readers. Furthermore, it was investigated at which component of the event-related brain potential (ERP) the FE occurs. Stimuli that consisted of either eighth notes or vertically mirrored eighth notes were presented to the participants (28 note readers, 19 non-note readers). A target element was embedded in half of the trials. Reaction times, sensitivity, and three ERP components (the N1, N2p, and P3) were recorded. For both the note readers and the non-note readers, strong FEs were found in the behavioral data. However, no differences in the strength of the FE between groups were found. Furthermore, for both groups, the FE was found for the same ERP components (target-absent trials – N1 latency; target-present trials – N2p latency, N2p amplitude, P3 amplitude). It is concluded that the early visual perception of eighth note symbols does not differ between note readers and non-note readers. However, future research is needed to verify this for more complex musical stimuli and for professional musician

Family risk and early attachment development: The differential role of parental sensitivity - Gerlach, Jennifer; Foessel, Judith M.; Vierhaus, Marc; Sann, Alexandra; Eickhorst, Andreas; Zimmermann, Peter; Spangler, Gottfried (Infant Mental Health Journal, 2022)
Family risks are known to be detrimental to children's attachment development. This study investigated whether parental sensitivity plays different roles in early attachment development in the context of risk: Sensitivity was hypothesized to mediate risk effects on attachment, as well as a moderator that shapes the relation between risk and attachment. Multiple family risks, parental sensitivity (defined as responsivity and supportive presence), and children's attachment security of 197 infants and toddlers (Mage = 15.25 months) and their caregivers were assessed in a prospective study with a cohort-sequential-design in Germany. Caregivers' sensitivity served as a mediator of risk effects on attachment as well as a moderator that buffers adverse consequences of risk. Early sensitivity might be relevant in setting the stage for attachment development supporting resilience.

Fathers, mothers and family violence: Which risk factors contribute to the occurrence of child maltreatment and exposure to intimate partner violence in early childhood? Findings in a German longitudinal in-depth study - Liel, Christoph; Eickhorst, Andreas; Zimmermann, Peter; Stemmler, Mark; Walper, Sabine (Child Abuse & Neglect, 2022)
Background: Family violence, especially child maltreatment and intimate partner violence, in early childhood has a strong impact on negative developmental outcomes. There is evidence of child, parental, and family risk factors. Less is known about paternal than maternal risk factors. Objective: To identify maternal and paternal predictors of family violence and predictive constellations of risk factors. Participants and setting: According to psychosocial adversity in a larger study, families were stratified into low-, medium- and high-risk groups. Both, mothers and fathers (n = 197/191), were investigated longitudinally across seven months using self-report questionnaires and ratings of the IFEEL Pictures. Methods: χ2-tests, logistic regression models, and prediction configural frequency analysis (P-CFA) were employed. Results: Univariate predictors (p < .05) were anxiety and stress in mothers, and insensitivity in recognizing negative child emotions in fathers. Within high-risk levels, paternal adverse childhood experiences (ACE) were a predictor (z = 2.92, p > .01), proven by P-CFA. Logistic regression models including family violence at baseline, sociodemographic variables, univariate predictors, and ACE of both parents revealed maternal anxiety (OR = 1.22, p < .05) and low paternal recognition of negative IFEEL Pictures (OR = 6.00, p < .05) as predictors. P-CFA identified socioemotional problems in children and low paternal recognition of negative child emotions as a predictive risk constellation (z = 2.58, p > .01). Conclusion: Analysis of both caregivers in small population samples with oversampled at-risk families leads to a systemic perspective of family violence. The identified risk constellation is highly relevant for early childhood intervention.

Female top performers in higher education STEM and humanities: socio-emotional perceptions and digital learning-related characteristics during COVID-19 - Ziegler, Albert; Bedenlier, Svenja; Gläser-Zikuda, Michaela; Kopp, Bärbel; Händel, Marion (Journal for the Education of Gifted Young Scientists, 2020)
In Germany, the 2020 summer semester was substantially influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic. In an empirical study, we focus on female top performing students in STEM and the humanities. Of particular interest was whether the measures associated with the pandemic constitute a risk-factor for a re-traditionalization of gender roles. Before lectures or courses began, students at a full-scale university were invited to participate in an online survey. We investigated four research questions: 1) Are women underrepresented in our sample among the top performers in STEM and the humanities? Are there gender differences among top performers with regard to (2) digital readiness, (3) socio-emotional and (4) learning related variables? The sample of the study consisted of 2,849 higher education STEM and humanities students. The study took place as an online survey. In the week before the start of the official lecture period, all students enrolled at the university were invited to take part via an e-mail correspondence from the Vice President of Education (survey access link). Participation in the survey took place via the Questback platform and was activated for 10 days. The cut-off point for the ability level was set at the 95th percentile of previous university achievements. To test Q1, we performed a hierarchical loglinear analysis with posthoc Chi² tests. In research questions Q2 - Q4 two-way ANOVAs were used to test the effects of gender and subject. Results indicate equal shares of female and male students among the top performers, with women overrepresented in the humanities and men overrepresented in STEM relative to their proportion of the student population. The analysis of socio-emotional and learning-related factors showed risk factors for high performing female students such as lower self-efficacy, but no major emotional vulnerability. Overall, the data suggest that at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, female top performers had still been able to compensate for the risk factors.<br

Finding the needles in the haystack: quality criteria for the use of internet-based self-management interventions in the prevention and treatment of mental disorders - Klein, Jan Philipp; Knaevelsrud, Christine; Bohus, Martin; Ebert, David; Gerlinger, Gabriel; Guenther, Kristina; Jacobi, Corinna; Loebner, Margrit; Riedel-Heller, Steffi G.; Sander, Julia; Sprick, Ulrich; Hauth, Iris (Fortschritte der Neurologie - Psychiatrie, 2019)
Numerous self-management interventions have proven to be efficacious in the treatment of a number of mental disorders in randomized trials. However, these interventions have not yet reached clinical routine everywhere. Among other things, this is due to the fact that, in addition to the evidence-based interventions, other interventions are offered that have never been scientifically investigated, and in some cases, do not even rely on evidence-based methods of psychotherapy. The present quality criteria, developed by the two professional associations DGPs and DGPPN, are intended to help patients, practitioners and decision-makers in the health care sector to identify safe and efficacious interventions. The core quality criteria cover the following aspects: safety of patients and their data; ensuring therapeutic quality by using evidence-based psychotherapeutic methods and developing the intervention in liaison with licensed psychotherapists or medical specialists; the presence of proof of efficacy from at least one randomized trial; and transparency regarding key information, e.g., the cost of the intervention. We hope that these criteria can contribute to the inclusion of self-management interventions in the range of services covered by statutory health insurance companies.

First steps toward assessing talent-support systems on a country level - Ziegler, Albert; Stoeger, Heidrun (High ability studies, 2023)
A growing number of countries has a strong interest in assessing the quality of their talent-support systems. We propose combining two relevant conceptual frameworks - hemerotopes and the learning and educational capital approach - to better achieve this end. Hemerotopes provide qualitative categories for assessing the degree to which countries have transformed environments to support talent development. We postulate six different hemerotopes, distinguished by two dimensions: the degree of support for talent development and the outcomes of the talent development process. The six hemerotopes range from atopes (no support of talent development and no outcomes of talent development) to megatopes (very high support of talent development and outstanding outcomes of talent development). Thus, among the different types of hemerotopes, the number of megatopes plays an especially important role when it comes to assessing the quality of a country's talent-support system. The learning capital approach, then, facilitates the comparative analysis of the quality of hemerotopes. In this approach, endogenous and exogenous learning resources are distinguished, making it possible to analyze simultaneously the learning resources available in a hemerotope as well as individuals' capacities to use these environmental resources.

Flow-Experience in Old Age: An Investigation of Influencing Factors and Therapy Benefits for Geriatric Patients - Wunner, Christina; Hesel, Julia; Stemmler, Mark; Gosch, Markus; Waller, Christiane (Psychotherapie Psychosomatik Medizinische Psychologie, 2022)
Flow experience, a feeling of being absorbed in an activity without reflection and with maximum depth, has positive effects on psychological and physical well-being, performance, and life satisfaction. Little research has been done on flow experience in old age, and there are no studies on geriatric patients. In the present study, elderly patients (mean age:81.2, SD=5.9) of a day hospital were examined with regard to their flow experience using the flow short scale. In addition to age and gender effects, flow was assessed during two different activities ( physical activity vs. memory training). Furthermore, the role of individual activity and group dynamics as well as correlations between flow and therapy success were examined in detail. The results show that flow experience is possible even in old age. Depressed patients experienced as much flow as non-depressed patients; cognitively impaired patients, on the other hand, experienced less flow than patients without cognitive deficits, and chronic pain patients even reported more flow experiences during exercise programs than patients without pain. A high level of self-activity had an overall positive effect on the flow experience. The therapy outcome could not be influenced by flow. Flow experience in old age should be given more attention, especially in physical activity therapy for pain patients; further correlations, especially with regard to depression, remain to be investigated.

(Physikalische Medizin, Rehabilitationsmedizin, Kurortmedizin, 2013)
Ziel der Untersuchung war die Entwicklung und Evaluation einer telefonischen und schriftlichen Nachsorge-Maßnahme zur Förderung der Motivation zur körperlichen Aktivität nach einer stationären kardiologischen Anschlussheilbehandlung. Im Rahmen einer randomisierten Kontrollgruppenstudie wurden bei Patienten nach einer Anschlussheilbehandlung eine telefonische und schriftliche Nachsorge monatlich durchgeführt. Als Förderstrategien der Motivation wurden z. B. Ursachenzuschreibung des Reha-Erfolges auf Anstrengung, Erinnerung an die praktische Bedeutsamkeit körperlicher Aktivitäten für den Alltag und intrinsische Anreize eingesetzt. 6 Monate nach der Reha-Maßnahme erfolgte die Katamnese. Prä-Posttest-Daten von 202 Patienten wurden mittels Varianzanalysen und der Methode der geplanten Kontraste ausgewertet. Es zeigte sich für die telefonische Nachsorge im Vergleich zur Standard-Reha-Nachsorge der Kontrollgruppe ein kleiner aber signifikanter Effekt für gesundheitsbezogene Motivation. Intrinsische, soziale und Leistungsmotivation, krankheits- und bewegungsbezogene Ängste, allgemeine Angst und Depressivität sowie Teilnahme an einer ambulanten Herzsportgruppe wiesen keine signifikanten Unterschiede auf. Post-hoc-analytisch zeigten sich für die körperliche Aktivität (erfasst als Häufigkeit von Schwitzen und beschleunigtem Herzschlag) in den Interventionsgruppen signifikant höhere Werte als für die Kontrollgruppe. Insgesamt wird die Anwendung von Motivationsförderstrategien aus pädagogischen Kontexten als Erfolg bewertet. Eine unvollständige Umsetzung des Leitfadens, eine geringe Telefondauer- und häufigkeit sowie eine hohe Selbstselektion der Patienten werden neben Problemen bei der Quantifizierung körperlicher Aktivitäten als Ursache für die begrenzte Wirksamkeit angesehen.

ForDigitStress: presentation and evaluation of a new laboratory stressor using a digital job interview-scenario - Becker, Linda; Heimerl, Alexander; André, Elisabeth (Frontiers in Psychology, 2023)
Introduction: Since the COVID-19 pandemic, working environments and private lives have changed dramatically. Digital technologies and media have become more and more important and have found their way into nearly all private and work environments. Communication situations have been largely relocated to virtual spaces. One of these scenarios is digital job interviews. Job interviews are usually—also in the non-digital world—perceived as stressful and associated with biological stress responses. We here present and evaluate a newly developed laboratory stressor that is based on a digital job interview-scenario. Methods: N = 45 healthy people participated in the study (64.4% female; mean age: 23.2 ± 3.6 years; mean body mass index = 22.8 ± 4.0 kg/m2). Salivary alpha-amylase (sAA) and cortisol were assessed as measures for biological stress responses. Furthermore, perceived stress was rated at the time points of the saliva samplings. The job interviews lasted between 20 and 25 min. All materials, including instructions for the experimenter (i.e., the job interviewer) and the data set used for statistical analysis, as well as a multimodal data set, which includes further measures, are publicly available. Results: Typical subjective and biological stress-response patterns were found, with peak sAA and perceived stress levels observed immediately after the job interviews and peak cortisol concentrations 5 min afterwards. Female participants experienced the scenario as more stressful than male participants. Cortisol peaks were higher for participants who experienced the situation as a threat in comparison to participants who experienced it as a challenge. Associations between the strength of the stress response with further person characteristics and psychological variables such as BMI, age, coping styles, and personality were not found. Discussion: Overall, our method is well-suited to induce biological and perceived stress, mostly independent of person characteristics and psychological variables. The setting is naturalistic and easily implementable in standardized laboratory settings.

For whom are internet-based occupational mental health interventions effective? Moderators of internet-based problem-solving training outcome - Junge, Magdalena N.; Lehr, Dirk; Bockting, Claudi L. H.; Berking, Matthias; Riper, Heleen; Cuijpers, Pim; Ebert, David; Heleen, Riper (Internet Interventions, 2015)
Internet-based problem-solving training (IPST) effectively reduces depressive symptoms in employees. Yet, it is unknown which employees benefit most from this particular treatment. The study aimed to identify predictors and moderators of treatment outcome in IPST offered to employees with depressive symptoms. Within a randomized controlled trial (N = 150), designed to test the effectiveness of IPST, variables that predict and moderate the effects of IPST when compared with a waitlist control group (WLC) were explored. The outcome was change in depression severity, assessed using the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). Both depression severity and other psychopathological symptoms and potential predictors/moderators were assessed as self-reports at baseline (t1) and in follow-up assessments after seven weeks (t2), three months (t3) and six months (t4). Higher depression severity at baseline predicted improvement in depressive symptomology in follow-up assessments after seven weeks, and three- and six months. Depression severity moderated the effectiveness of IPST assessed at six-month follow-up. Simple slope analyses revealed that the long-term effectiveness of the intervention was more pronounced among participants with high (CES-D range: 33–44, M = 37.0, SD = 3.2) and moderate (CES-D range: 14–32, M = 23.1, SD = 5.6) depression baseline scores, compared to participants displaying low depression baseline scores (CES-D range: 5–13, M = 9.0, SD = 2.2). No indication was found that participants presenting low depression severity at baseline significantly benefitted from IPST in the long-term. IPST might be appropriate for employees with a wide range of different characteristics. While there appears to be no reason to exclude employees with severe depression from Internet-based occupational mental health interventions, for employees low in depression severity, watchful waiting or potentially no intervention should be considered. These findings may not apply to other low-intensity interventions and/or target groups.

Although the majority of foster children have been exposed to early adversity in their biological families and have experienced one or more disruptions of attachment relationships, most studies surprisingly found foster children to be as securely attached as children in low-risk samples. However, attention has been paid almost exclusively to attachment formation in young children up to two years of age, and the majority of studies solely investigated attachment behavior whereas few is known about foster children's representations about attachment relationships. To extend findings on attachment in foster children and its predictors, our study examined both attachment behavior and representations in foster children aged between 3 and 8 years. Diverse potential predictors including child variables, birth parents' variables, pre-placement experiences, and foster caregiver's behavior were included in the analyses. Results revealed that foster children showed both lower attachment security and higher disorganization scores than children in low-risk samples. Attachment behavior and representation were found to be widely independent from each other. Different factors contributed to attachment behavior and representation: whereas foster children's attachment behavior was mainly influenced by foster parents' behavior, pre-placement experiences did predict hyperactivation and disorganization on the representational level. The results indicate that, when intervening with foster families, it seems crucial to focus not exclusively on the promotion of secure attachment behavior but also to develop interventions enhancing secure and organized attachment representations.

Fragile Heterosexuality: A Cross-cultural Study Between Germany and Italy - Guevara, Martha Lucia Borras; West, Keon; Brambilla, Marco; Bruckmüller, Susanne (Sexuality and Culture, 2022)
Prior research in the UK and the USA found that heterosexual identity was perceived as more easily compromised than gay identity: a finding dubbed the "Fragile Heterosexuality " effect. However, there is as yet no evidence that this effect occurs outside the USA and UK. With representative samples from Germany (N = 1236) and Italy (N = 1249), we investigated the fragile heterosexuality effect using participants' agreement with gender-neutral statements about the perceived fragility of sexual orientation of others. We found evidence supporting the fragile heterosexuality effect in both countries. We also investigated six possible moderators of the effect. Higher estimates of gay/lesbian population weakened the effect, and higher levels of anti-gay prejudice strengthened the effect. Contact (quantity/quality), right wing authoritarianism, and social dominance orientation did not moderate the effect. These findings contribute to previous literature by highlight that the fragile heterosexuality effect appears across countries of diverse LGBTQ friendliness and languages, and also suggest plausible explanations for the effect.

Framing gender differences: Linguistic normativity affects perceptions of power and gender stereotypes. - Bruckmüller, Susanne; Hegarty, Peter; Abele, Andrea E. (European Journal of Social Psychology, 2012)
When unknown groups and equal status groups are compared by contrasting one group (“the effect to be explained”) against another (“the linguistic norm”), the group positioned as the norm is sometimes perceived as more powerful, more agentic, and as less communal. Such perceptions may contribute to status-linked stereotypes, as group differences are spontaneously described by positioning higher-status groups as the linguistic norm. Here, 103 participants considered gender differences in status to be larger and more legitimate and applied gender stereotypes more readily upon reading about gender differences in leadership that were framed around a male rather than a female linguistic norm. These effects did not generalize to 113 participants who read about gender differences in leisure time preferences framed around either norm. Jointly, these results suggest that the effects of linguistic framing on perceived group status and power and on group stereotypes generalize to domains where there are real differences in status, and contexts in which higher-status groups are the default standard for comparison.

From avoidance to approach: The influence of threat-of-shock on reward-based decision making - Bublatzky, Florian; Alpers, Georg W.; Pittig, Andre (Behaviour Research and Therapy, 2017)
Potential threat can prime defensive responding and avoidance behavior, which may result in the loss of rewards. When aversive consequences do not occur, avoidance should, thus, be quickly overcome in healthy individuals. This study examined the impact of threat anticipation on reward-based decisions. Sixty-five participants completed a decision-making task in which they had to choose between high- and low-reward options. To model an approach-avoidance conflict, the high-reward option was contingent with a threat-of-shock cue; the low-reward option was contingent with a safety cue. In control trials, decisions were made without threat/safety instructions. Overall, behavioral data documented a typical preference for the profitable option. Importantly, under threat-of-shock, participants initially avoided the profitable option (i.e., safe, but less profitable choices). However, when they experienced that shocks did actually not occur, participants overcame initial avoidance in favor of larger gains. Furthermore, autonomic arousal (skin conductance and heart rate responses) was elevated during threat cues compared to safety and non-threatening control cues. Taken together, threat-of-shock was associated with behavioral consequences: initially, participants avoided threat-related options but made more profitable decisions as they experienced no aversive consequences. Although socially acquired threat contingencies are typically stable, incentives for approach can help to overcome threat-related avoidance.

From Implicit Theories to Creative Achievements: The Mediating Role of Creativity Motivation in the Relationship between Stereotypes, Growth Mindset, and Creative Achievement - Li, Pin; Zhang, Zhitian; Zhang, Yanna; Zhang, Jia; Nunez, Miguelina; Shi, Jiannong (Journal of Creative Behavior, 2020)
Research has demonstrated that implicit theories of creativity are crucial in shaping an individual’s behavior and real-life decisions toward being creative. The present study proposed and examined the underlying mechanisms of how two kinds of implicit theories—the growth mindset of the creative self and the stereotype of creative others—are associated with creative achievements through the mediating role of creativity motivation. Participants were 606 undergraduate students who were enrolled in an education major in two universities in China. Overall, the study found that Chinese students held a positive image toward a creative student, regarding him or her as highly competent, warm, and popular. Student perceptions of a creative other were positively related to their growth mindset of creativity. Moreover, results verified both the mediating role of creativity motivation on growth mindset, as well as the effect of positive stereotyping of the creative other on students’ creative achievement. These findings point to promising creativity motivation strategies including the cultivation of a malleable view of creativity and of creative role models, that may, in turn, promote creative achievement by encouraging students to do, learn, and accomplish new things.

From living systematic reviews to meta-analytical research domains - Cuijpers, Pim; Miguel, Clara; Papola, Davide; Harrer, Mathias; Karyotaki, Eirini (Evidence-Based Mental Health, 2022)
Because of the rapidly increasing number of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and meta-analyses in many fields, there is an urgent need to step up from meta-analyses to higher levels of aggregation of outcomes of RCTs. Network meta-analyses and umbrella reviews allow higher levels of aggregation of RCT outcomes, but cannot adequately cover the evidence for a whole field. The € Meta-Analytic Research Domain' (MARD) may be a new methodology to aggregate RCT data of a whole field. A MARD is a living systematic review of a research domain that cannot be covered by one PICO. For example, a MARD of psychotherapy for depression covers all RCTs comparing the effects of all types of psychotherapy to control conditions, to each other, to pharmacotherapy and combined treatment. It also covers all RCTs comparing treatment formats, the effects in different target groups, subtypes of depression and secondary outcomes. Although the time and resources needed to build a MARD are considerable, they offer many advantages, including a comprehensive and consistent overview of a research field and important meta-analytic studies that cannot be conducted with conventional methods. MARDs are a promising method to step up the aggregation of RCTs to a next level and it is highly relevant to work out the methods of this approach in a more detailed way.

From serial reproduction to serial communication: transmission of the focus of comparison in lay communication about gender inequality - Braun, Maike; Martiny, Sarah; Bruckmüller, Susanne (Human Communication Research, 2022)
We introduce and explore the potential of the serial communication method, a modification of the serial reproduction paradigm in which participants communicate their own thoughts. It affords participants more agency, more closely simulating real communication. We specifically examined the transmission of the focus of comparison in explanations of gender inequality, a consequential form of equivalency framing. Participants in Wave 1 (n = 86) read about women being underrepresented (focus on women) or men being overrepresented in leadership (focus on men), then explained this difference. Participants in Wave 2 (n = 208) and Wave 3 (n = 199) then read randomly selected explanations from the preceding wave before giving their own explanations. The initial focus affected subsequent communication and was partially transmitted to Wave 2, but not Wave 3. We discuss implications and the value of the method for research on the framing of inequality, cultural transmission, and competing frames.

Gambling problems seldom come alone: prevalence and temporal relationships of mental health problems in casino excluders - Kotter, R.; Kraeplin, A.; Pittig, Andre; Buehringer, G. (International Gambling Studies, 2019)
To estimate the effectiveness of gambling exclusion programmes, previous research focused on changes in gambling behaviour post-exclusion. Although other mental health problems, especially co-morbid mental disorders, may be crucial for relapse and recovery of gambling-related problems, these factors have rarely been studied in excluders. Therefore, this study aimed to assess a comprehensive mental health status of excluders using well-validated diagnostic instruments. Fifty-eight casino excluders participated in face-to-face diagnostic interviews and completed several validated questionnaires (e.g. Stinchfield Questionnaire, Brief Symptom Inventory). Retrospective temporal sequences of diagnosed mental disorders, help-seeking behaviour and exclusion were examined. The majority of excluders reported impairments in mental health aspects. About three-quarters met criteria of lifetime gambling disorder, more than half in the last 12 months whereby screening and diagnostic measures correlated moderately. Other mental disorders were frequent, especially affective and substance-related disorders and typically preceded the onset of gambling disorder. Six years passed between self-awareness of gambling problems and help-seeking. Two more years passed until exclusion. Frequent mental health problems suggest the need for individually tailored support beyond exclusion programmes (e.g. psychotherapy, pharmacotherapy, counselling services). Late help-seeking and exclusion entry claim for improved early detection and intervention concepts that consider underlying mental disorders.

Gender differential influences of early adolescent risk factors for the development of depressive affect - Stemmler, Mark Kurt; Petersen, Anne C. (Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 2005)
Based on a model by Cyranowski, J., et al. (2000), Arch. Gen. Psychiatry 57: 21–27, adolescents at-risk for the development of depressive symptoms were identified. Adolescents were considered at-risk if they had 2 or more of the following early adolescent risk factors: (1) insecure parental attachment, (2) anxious/inhibited temperament, (3) low instrumental coping skills, and (4) early pubertal maturation. Nonrisk adolescents had zero or just one risk factor. Using data from a 10-year longitudinal study on the development of adolescents’ health, with 5 points of data assessment (i.e., 6th, 7th, 8th, 12th, and 12 + 4 follow-up), the impact of the four early adolescent risk factors on the development of emotional tone was investigated. Emotional tone was measured by the Emotional Tone Scale of the SIQYA (Petersen, A. C., et al. (1984), J. Youth Adolesc. 13: 93–111), an indicator for positive emotional tone and low depressed affect. Growth curve modeling was applied to reveal significant gender differences in level and slope for the development of emotional tone over the adolescent years. Latent Growth Curve Models can be seen as a combination consisting of repeated measures analysis of variance and autoregressive analyses to evaluate the latent change of the variables under investigation (Rovine, M. J., and Molenaar, P. C. M. (2000), Multivar. Behav. Res. 35(1): 51–88). At-risk girls revealed poorer levels of emotional tone which stayed almost at the same low level up to young adulthood (i.e., 12 + 4), indicating a long lasting impact of the specified risk factors. In contrast, at-risk boys showed poorer emotional tone in early adolescence, but at the end of adolescence boys at-risk had the same level of emotional tone as nonrisk boys. At-risk girls showed significantly higher levels of depressive symptoms at grade 12 and at 12 + 4.

Generating Personalized Behavioral Feedback for a Virtual Job Interview Training System Through Adversarial Learning - Heimerl, Alexander; Mertes, Silvan; Schneeberger, Tanja; Baur, Tobias; Liu, Ailin; Becker, Linda; Rohleder, Nicolas; Gebhard, Patrick; André, Elisabeth (Lecture Notes in Computer Science (including subseries Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence and Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics), 2022)
Job interviews are usually high-stakes social situations where professional and behavioral skills are required for a satisfactory outcome. In order to increase the chances of recruitment technological approaches have emerged to generate meaningful feedback for job candidates. We extended an interactive virtual job interview training system with a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN)-based approach that first detects behavioral weaknesses and subsequently generates personalized feedback. To evaluate the usefulness of the generated feedback, we conducted a mixed-methods pilot study using mock-ups from the job interview training system. The overall study results indicate that the GAN-based generated behavioral feedback is helpful. Moreover, participants assessed that the feedback would improve their job interview performance.

“Generation invisible?“. Higher education students’ (non)use of webcams in synchronous online learning - Bedenlier, Svenja; Wunder, Iris; Gläser-Zikuda, Michaela; Kammerl, Rudolf; Kopp, Bärbel; Ziegler, Albert; Händel, Marion (International Journal of Educational Research Open, 2021)
The pandemic situation continues to influence teaching and learning in higher education, with students oftentimes participating in synchronous videoconferencing sessions as a means to interact with peers and instructors. The frequently noted non-use of webcams by students incited the current study, investigating usage behavior as well as potentially related course variables and individual characteristics. N = 3,527 students from a German university took part in an online survey at the end of the regular summer term 2020 (August 2020). Findings indicate that students’ webcam usage behavior was related to personal thoughts and feelings (e.g., privacy), to course characteristics (e.g., group cohesion), and it differed due to specific groups (gender, study level). With the ongoing importance of videoconferencing in higher education, this study provides a foundation for further investigation into this synchronous learning context. <

Genetic and attachment influences on adolescents' regulation of autonomy and aggressiveness - Zimmermann, Peter; Mohr, Cornelia; Spangler, Gottfried (The journal of child psychology and psychiatry, 2009)
Background: Adolescence is a time when intense emotions are elicited within the parent-adolescent relationship, often when autonomy subjectively is endangered. As emotion dysregulation is one of the risk processes for the development of psychopathology, adolescence may be perceived as a highly sensitive period for maladjustment. Inter-individual differences in emotionality and emotion regulation have been shown to be influenced or moderated by molecular genetic differences in the serotonin transporter gene (5-HTT) and by attachment patterns. We investigated whether both the 5-HTT and attachment are associated with emotionality and emotion regulation in an observed adolescent-mother interaction and the personality traits aggressiveness and anxiety in adolescence. Methods: Ninety-one adolescents at age 12 were observed in interaction with their mothers during a standardized emotion-eliciting social task to assess emotionality and emotion regulation in relation to autonomy. Adolescents' aggressiveness and anxiety were assessed by mother report. Concurrent attachment quality was determined by an attachment interview. DNA samples were collected in order to assess the 5-HTTLPR, a repeat polymorphism in the promoter region of the serotonin transporter gene. Results: While the short allele of the serotonin transporter gene was associated with a higher overall rate of autonomy behaviors, attachment security was related to more agreeable and less hostile autonomy. A significant interaction revealed a moderating effect of attachment security. Carriers of the short version of the 5-HTTLPR showed more agreeable autonomy when they had a secure attachment behavior strategy but showed more hostile autonomy when they were insecurely attached. Carriers of the short version of the 5-HTTLPR and insecurely attached adolescents were rated as more aggressive. Conclusions: The study suggests a gene-attachment interaction in adolescents where the adolescent's attachment status moderates a genetically based higher negative reactivity in response to threats to autonomy in social interactions. © 2009 Association for Child and Adolescent Mental Health.

Genetic and environmental determinants of attachment disorganization - Spangler, Gottfried (Disorganized attachment and caregiving, 2011)

Genetic and environmental influence on attachment disorganization - Spangler, Gottfried; Johann, Monika; Ronai, Zsolt; Zimmermann, Peter (The journal of child psychology and psychiatry, 2009)
BACKGROUND: Empirical studies demonstrate that maternal sensitivity is associated with attachment security in infancy, while maternal frightening/frightened behavior is related to attachment disorganization. However, attachment disorganization is also predicted by individual dispositions in infancy. Indeed, recent studies indicate a link between attachment disorganization and DRD4 gene polymorphisms, thus suggesting a genetic vulnerability for attachment disorganization. The aims of our study were twofold, to test a) a possible direct link between molecular genetic variations and attachment disorganization, and b) a possible gene-environment interaction with a moderating effect of early maternal caregiving. METHODS: Attachment security and disorganization, as well as quality of maternal behavior were assessed in the infants of the Regensburg Longitudinal Study IV (N = 106) at the age of 12 months. DNA samples were collected in order to assess the exon III repeat polymorphism in the coding region and the -521 C/T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the regulatory region of the DRD4 gene and a repeat polymorphism (5-HTTLPR) in the promoter region of the serotonin transporter gene. RESULTS: Significant associations were found between attachment disorganization and the short polymorphism of the serotonin transporter gene. Also, a gene-environment interaction indicated that this genetic association was only valid for infants of mothers exhibiting low responsiveness. No other significant genetic associations with attachment disorganization were apparent. CONCLUSIONS: The study suggests a gene-environment interaction whereby biological determinants of attachment disorganization are moderated by social experiences. Different pathways of the development of attachment disorganization are discussed based on a bio-behavioral model of development.

GET.ON Mood Enhancer: efficacy of Internet-based guided self-help compared to psychoeducation for depression: an investigator-blinded randomised controlled trial - Ebert, David; Lehr, Dirk; Baumeister, Harald; Boß, Leif; Riper, Heleen; Cuijpers, Pim; Reins, Jo Annika; Buntrock, Claudia; Berking, Matthias (Trials, 2014)
Background Major depressive disorder (MDD) imposes a considerable disease burden on individuals and societies. A large number of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) have shown the efficacy of Internet-based guided self-help interventions in reducing symptoms of depression. However, study quality varies considerably. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a new Internet-based guided self-help intervention (GET.ON Mood Enhancer) compared to online-based psychoeducation in an investigator-blinded RCT. Methods/design A RCT will be conducted to compare the efficacy of GET.ON Mood Enhancer with an active control condition receiving online psychoeducation on depression (OPD). Both treatment groups will have full access to treatment as usual. Adults with MDD (n = 128) will be recruited and randomised to one of the two conditions. Primary outcome will be observer-rated depressive symptoms (HRSD-24) by independent assessors blind to treatment conditions. Secondary outcomes include changes in self-reported depressive symptom severity, anxiety and quality of life. Additionally, potential negative effects of the treatments will systematically be evaluated on several dimensions (for example, symptom deteriorations, attitudes toward seeking psychological help, relationships and stigmatisation). Assessments will take place at baseline, 6 and 12 weeks after randomisation. Discussion This study evaluates a new Internet-based guided self-help intervention for depression using an active control condition (psychoeducation-control) and an independent, blinded outcome evaluation. This study will further enhance the evidence for Internet-based guided self-help interventions for MDD.

Greedy elites and poor lambs: How young Europeans remember the Great War. - Bouchat, P; Licata, L; Rosoux, V; Allesch, Christian; Bruckmüller, Susanne; Klein, O (Journal of Social and Political Psychology, 2019)
The present study examines current social representations associated with the origins of the Great War, a major event that has profoundly affected Europe. A survey conducted in 20 European countries (N = 1906 students in social sciences) shows a high consensus: The outbreak of the war is attributed to the warring nations’ leaders while the responsibility of the populations is minimized. Building on the concept of social representation of history (Liu & Hilton, 2005), we suggest that the social representations of the Great War fulfill social psychological functions in contemporary Europe. We suggest that WWI may function as a charter for European integration. Their content also suggests a desire to distinguish a positively valued ingroup ("the people") from powerful elites, construed as an outgroup.

Guided internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia: Health-economic evaluation from the societal and public health care perspective alongside a randomized controlled trial - Buntrock, Claudia; Lehr, Dirk; Smit, Filip; Horvath, Hanne; Berking, Matthias; Spiegelhalder, Kai; Riper, Heleen; Ebert, David Daniel (Journal of Medical Internet Research, 2021)
Background: The evidence base for internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (iCBT-I) is firm; however, little is known about iCBT-I's health-economic effects. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness and cost-utility of iCBT-I in reducing insomnia among schoolteachers. Methods: Schoolteachers (N=128) with clinically significant insomnia symptoms and work-related rumination were randomized to guided iCBT-I or a wait list control group, both with unrestricted access to treatment as usual. Health care use, patient and family expenditures, and productivity losses were self-assessed and used for costing from a societal and a public health care perspective. Costs were related to symptom-free status (score <8 on the insomnia severity index) and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) gained. Sampling error was handled using nonparametric bootstrapping. Results: Statistically significant differences favoring the intervention group were found for both health outcomes (symptom-free status yes or no: β=.30; 95% CI 0.16-0.43; QALYs: β=.019, 95% CI 0.01-0.03). From a societal perspective, iCBT-I had a 94% probability of dominating the wait list control for both health outcomes. From a public health care perspective, iCBT-I was more effective but also more expensive than the wait list control, resulting in an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of €650 per symptom-free individual. In terms of QALYs, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was €11, 285. At a willingness-to-pay threshold of €20, 000 per QALY gained, the intervention's probability of being cost-effective was 89%. Conclusions: Our trial indicates that iCBT could be considered as a good value-for-money intervention for insomnia.

Guided internet-based transdiagnostic individually tailored Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for symptoms of depression and/or anxiety in college students: A randomized controlled trial - Karyotaki, Eirini; Klein, Anke M.; Ciharova, Marketa; Bolinski, Felix; Krijnen, Lisa; de Koning, Lisa; de Wit, Leonore; van der Heijde, Claudia M.; Ebert, David; Riper, Heleen; Batelaan, Neeltje; Vonk, Peter; et al. (Behaviour Research and Therapy, 2022)
Common mental disorders, such as depression and anxiety, often emerge in college students during the transition into early adulthood. Mental health problems can seriously impact students' functioning, interpersonal relationships, and academic achievement. Actively reaching out to college students with mental health problems and offering them internet-based interventions may be a promising way of providing low-threshold access to evidence-based treatment in colleges. This randomized controlled trial aimed to assess the effectiveness of a guided web-based transdiagnostic individually tailored Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (iCBT) in treating college students with depression and/or anxiety symptoms. Through an online survey that screened college students’ mental health, we recruited 100 college students aged ≥18 years who reported mild to moderate depression and/or anxiety symptoms and were attending colleges in the Netherlands. Participants were randomly allocated to guided iCBT (n = 48) or treatment as usual (TAU) control (n = 52). Primary outcomes were symptoms of depression and anxiety measured at post-treatment (7 weeks post-randomization). We also measured all outcomes at 6- and 12-months post-randomization. All analyses were based on the intention-to-treat principle and were repeated using the complete-case sample. We found no evidence of a difference between the effects of guided iCBT and TAU in any of the examined outcomes (i.e., symptoms of depression and anxiety, quality of life, educational achievement, and college dropout) across all time points (p > .05). There was no evidence that effects of iCBT were associated with treatment satisfaction and adherence. More research into transdiagnostic individually tailored iCBT is necessary. Further, future studies should recruit larger samples to investigate possible smaller but clinically relevant effects of internet-based interventions for college students with depression and/or anxiety.

Hair Cortisol Research in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder - 10 Years of Insights and Open Questions. A Systematic Review - Gmelch, Lena Marie; Capito, Klara; Steudte-Schmiedgen, Susann; Kirschbaum, Clemens; Berking, Matthias (Current Neuropharmacology, 2023)
Background: Cortisol is one of the most extensively studied biomarkers in the context of trauma/posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). For more than a decade, hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) have been measured in this context, leading to a two-staged dysregulation model. Specifically, an elevated secretion during/immediately after trauma exposure eventually reverts to hyposecretion with increasing time since trauma exposure has been postulated. Objective: The aim of our systematic review was to re-evaluate the two-staged secretion model with regard to the accumulated diagnostic, prognostic, and intervention-related evidence of HCC in lifetime trauma exposure and PTSD. Further, we provide an overview of open questions, particularly with respect to reporting standards and quality criteria. Method: A systematic literature search yielded 5,046 records, of which 31 studies were included. Results: For recent/ongoing (traumatic) stress, the predictions of cortisol hypersecretion could be largely confirmed. However, for the assumed hyposecretion temporally more distal to trauma exposure, the results are more ambiguous. As most studies did not report holistic overviews of trauma history and confounding influences, this may largely be attributable to methodological limitations. Data on the prognostic and intervention-related benefits of HCC remain sparse. Conclusion: Over the last decade, important insights could be gained about long-term cortisol secretion patterns following lifetime trauma exposure and PTSD. This systematic review integrates these insights into an updated secretion model for trauma/PTSD. We conclude with recommendations for improving HCC research in the context of trauma/PTSD in order to answer the remaining open questions. <br

Hardly any gender differences among opioid users in prison - Boksán, Klara; Weiss, M.; Geißelsöder, Kerstin; Dechant, Michael; Endres, J.; Breuer, M.; Stemmler, Mark; Wodarz, N. (Forensische Psychiatrie, Psychologie, Kriminologie, 2023)
Background A high proportion of incarcerated women exhibit opioid dependence. Concerning the question whether women and men differ in their opioid use and whether empirical evidence for a telescoping effect (later initiation of drug use with accelerated progression of dependence) in women can be found, the research situation is ambiguous. In this respect, there is a lack of studies on possible gender differences, particularly in the correctional setting.Objective In a sample of n = 247 opioid-dependent individuals incarcerated in Bavarian prisons we compared female (n = 31) and male (n = 216) study participants regarding age, drug use, substitution treatment, psychological preload, education, and economic situation.Method Data were collected during an initial interview in prison as part of the ongoing study "Incarceration and opioid dependence-an evaluation study ".Results There were no differences in drug use between the two gender groups; consequently, no evidence of a telescoping effect among opioid-dependent female prisoners was found. Furthermore, no differences between women and men regarding substitution treatment, education, and economic situation were found. Women were more likely to report having suffered from depression prior to incarceration and having experienced sexual abuse.Conclusion Evidence was found of greater psychological distress among female compared with male incarcerated persons with opioid dependence, but strikingly few differences beyond that. It seems conceivable that in this population a particularly severe course of opioid dependence could be present, which makes any gender-specific differences recede into the background.

Having Workplace Friends Is Not Always Fun - Hommelhoff, Sabine (Zeitschrift für Arbeits- und Organisationspsychologie, 2019)
Workplace friendships can be joyful for employees and conducive to positive organizational outcomes. However, recent research has suggested that there are also dark sides and complexities associated with workplace friendships, which are not well understood. This exploratory critical incident study of 201 employees therefore focuses on conflicts that can arise among friends when work and friendship norms clash. Incidents were coded in terms of conflicting resources and broken friendship rules. Results showed that conflicts most often revolved around the resources status and affection. That is, hierarchies and promotions collided with friendship. Moreover, two friendship rules were broken frequently, the intimacy and the third- party rule. That is, either trust was betrayed, or a friend did not act like a friend when a third person, for example, a supervisor, became involved. In demonstrating potential downsides of workplace friendships, this study aims to help employees in understanding and maintaining good workplace relationships.

Health and Disease – Emergent States Resulting from Adaptive Social and Biological Network Interactions.

Health and Disease-Emergent States Resulting From Adaptive Social and Biological Network Interactions - Sturmberg, Joachim P.; Picard, Martin; Aron, David C.; Bennett, Jeanette M.; Bircher, Johannes; Dehaven, Mark J.; Gijzel, Sanne M. W.; Heng, Henry H.; Marcum, James A.; Martin, Carmel M.; Miles, Andrew; Peterson, Chris L.; et al. (Frontiers in Medicine, 2019)
Health is an adaptive state unique to each person. This subjective state must be distinguished from the objective state of disease. The experience of health and illness (or poor health) can occur both in the absence and presence of objective disease. Given that the subjective experience of health, as well as the finding of objective disease in the community, follow a Pareto distribution, the following questions arise: What are the processes that allow the emergence of four observable states-(1) subjective health in the absence of objective disease, (2) subjective health in the presence of objective disease, (3) illness in the absence of objective disease, and (4) illness in the presence of objective disease? If we consider each individual as a unique biological system, these four health states must emerge from physiological network structures and personal behaviors. The underlying physiological mechanisms primarily arise from the dynamics of external environmental and internal patho/physiological stimuli, which activate regulatory systems including the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and autonomic nervous system. Together with other systems, they enable feedback interactions between all of the person's system domains and impact on his system's entropy. These interactions affect individual behaviors, emotional, and cognitive responses, as well as molecular, cellular, and organ system level functions. This paper explores the hypothesis that health is an emergent state that arises from hierarchical network interactions between a person's external environment and internal physiology. As a result, the concept of health synthesizes available qualitative and quantitative evidence of interdependencies and constraints that indicate its top-down and bottom-up causative mechanisms. Thus, to provide effective care, we must use strategies that combine person-centeredness with the scientific approaches that address the molecular network physiology, which together underpin health and disease. Moreover, we propose that good health can also be promoted by strengthening resilience and self-efficacy at the personal and social level, and via cohesion at the population level. Understanding health as a state that is both individualized and that emerges from multi-scale interdependencies between microlevel physiological mechanisms of health and disease and macrolevel societal domains may provide the basis for a new public discourse for health service and health system redesign.

Heart rate and heart rate variability in panic, social anxiety, obsessive-compulsive, and generalized anxiety disorders at baseline and in response to relaxation and hyperventilation - Pittig, Andre; Arch, Joanna J.; Lam, Chi W. R.; Craske, Michelle G. (International Journal of Psychophysiology, 2013)
It remains unclear if diminished high frequency heart rate variability (HF-HRV) can be found across anxiety disorders. HF-HRV and heart rate (HR) were examined in panic (PD), generalized anxiety (GAD), social anxiety (SAD), and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) relative to healthy controls at baseline and during anxiety stressors. All disorders evidenced diminished baseline HF-HRV relative to controls. Baseline HRV differences were maintained throughout relaxation. For hyperventilation, PD and GAD demonstrated greater HR than controls. Psychotropic medication did not account for HF-HRV differences except in OCD. Age and sex evidenced multiple main effects. Findings suggest that low baseline HF-HRV represents a common index for inhibitory deficits across PD, GAD, and SAD, which is consistent with the notion of autonomic inflexibility in anxiety disorders. Elevated HR responses to hyperventilation, however, are specific to PD and GAD. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.

Helplessness among University Students: An Empirical Study Based on a Modified Framework of Implicit Personality Theories - Ziegler, Albert; Bedenlier, Svenja; Gläser-Zikuda, Michaela; Kopp, Bärbel; Händel, Marion (Education Sciences, 2021)
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and within a very short period of time, teaching in the 2020 summer term changed from predominantly on-site to online instruction. Students suddenly faced having to adapt their learning process to new demands for which they may have had both insufficient digital skills and a lack of learning resources. Such a situation carries the risk that a substantial number of students become helpless. The aim of our empirical study was to test a hybrid framework of helplessness that includes both objective causes of helplessness and students’ subjective interpretations of them. Before lectures or courses began, students of a full-scale university were invited to participate in an online survey. The final sample consists of 1690 students. Results indicate that objective factors as well as their subjective interpretations contributed to the formation of helplessnes

Higher interference susceptibility in reaction time task is accompanied by weakened functional dissociation between salience and default mode network - Goetting, Florian N.; Borchardt, Viola; Demenescu, Liliana R.; Teckentrup, Vanessa; Dinica, Katharina; Lord, Anton R.; Rohe, Tim; Hausdorfer, Dorothea I.; Li, Meng; Metzger, Coraline D.; Walter, Martin (Neuroscience Letters, 2017)
Background: The relationship between task-positive and task-negative components of brain networks has repeatedly been shown to be characterized by dissociated fluctuations of spontaneous brain activity.We tested whether the interaction between task-positive and task-negative brain areas during resting state predicts higher interference susceptibility, i.e. increased reaction times (RTs), during an Attention Modulation by Salience Task (AMST).Methods: 29 males underwent 3 T resting-state Magnetic Resonance Imaging scanning. Subsequently, they performed the AMST, which measures RTs to early-and late-onset auditory stimuli while perceiving high-or low-salient visual distractors. We conducted seed-based resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) analyses using global signal correction. We assessed general responsiveness and salience related interference in the AMST and set this into context of the resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) between a key salience network region (dACC; task-positive region) and a key default mode network region (precuneus; task-negative region).Results: With increasing RTs to high-but not low-salient pictures dACC shows significantly weakened functional dissociation to a cluster in precuneus. This cluster overlaps with a cluster that correlates in its dACC rsFC with subjects' interference, as measured of high-salient RTs relative to low-salient RTs.Conclusion: Our findings suggest that the interaction between salience network (SN) and default mode network (DMN) at rest predicts susceptibility to distraction. Subjects, that are more susceptible to high salient stimuli task-irrelevant external information showed increased dACC rsFC toward precuneus. This is consistent with prior work in individuals with impaired attentional focus. Future studies might help to conclude whether an increased rsFC between a SN region and DMN region may serve as a predictor for clinical syndromes characterized by attentional impairments, e.g. ADHD. This could lead to an alternative, objective diagnosis and treatment of such disorders by decreasing the rsFC of these regions. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Higher Peripheral Inflammation Is Associated With Lower Orbitofrontal Gamma Power in Chronic Tinnitus - Becker, Linda; Keck, Antonia; Rohleder, Nicolas; Müller-Voggel, Nadia (Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022)
Chronic tinnitus, the continuous perception of a phantom sound, is a highly prevalent audiological symptom, for which the underlying pathology has not yet been fully understood. It is associated with neurophysiological alterations in the central nervous system and chronic stress, which can be related with a disinhibition of the inflammatory system. We here investigated the association between resting-state oscillatory activity assessed with Magnetoencephalography (MEG), and peripheral inflammation assessed by C-reactive protein (CRP) in a group of patients with chronic tinnitus (N = 21, nine males, mean age: 40.6 ± 14.6 years). Additionally, CRP was assessed in an age- and sex-matched healthy control group (N = 21, nine males, mean age: 40.9 ± 15.2 years). No MEG data was available for the control group. We found a significant negative correlation between CRP and gamma power in the orbitofrontal cortex in tinnitus patients (p < 0.001), pointing to a deactivation of the orbitofrontal cortex when CRP was high. No significant clusters were found for other frequency bands. Moreover, CRP levels were significantly higher in the tinnitus group than in the healthy controls (p = 0.045). Our results can be interpreted based on findings from previous studies having disclosed the orbitofrontal cortex as part of the tinnitus distress network. We suggest that higher CRP levels and the associated deactivation of the orbitofrontal cortex in chronic tinnitus patients is maintaining the tinnitus percept through disinhibition of the auditory cortex and attentional or emotional top-down processes. Although the direction of the association (i.e., causation) between CRP levels and orbitofrontal gamma power in chronic tinnitus is not yet known, inflammation reducing interventions are promising candidates when developing treatments for tinnitus patients. Overall, our study highlights the importance of considering immune-brain communication in tinnitus researc

High power = Motivation? Low power = Situation? The impact of power, power stability and power motivation on risk-taking. - Hiemer, Julia; Abele, Andrea E. (Personality and individual differences, 2012)
The present research analyzes the influence of situational (role stability vs. instability) and personal (power motivation) variables on risk-taking behaviour of people with low vs. high power. We predicted that low power people are mainly influenced by the situation, whereas high power people also act in accord with their power motivation. We independently measured participants’ power motivation and later conducted a 2 (power role: high vs. low) × 2 (situation: stable vs. unstable role) experiment in which we assessed risk-taking behaviour in the Balloon Analogue Risk Task (BART; Lejuez et al., 2002).We also ran a control group without role assignment. Supporting our hypotheses, risk-taking behaviour of people with low power was influenced by the situation, but not by power motivation, whereas risk-taking behaviour of powerful people was influenced by both sources. Control group’s risk-taking was somewhat influenced by power motivation. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2012 APA, all rights reserved)

How can we estimate QALYs based on PHQ-9 scores? Equipercentile linking analysis of PHQ-9 and EQ-5D - Furukawa, Toshi A.; Levine, Stephen Z.; Buntrock, Claudia; Ebert, David D.; Gilbody, Simon; Brabyn, Sally; Kessler, David; Björkelund, Cecilia; Eriksson, Maria; Kleiboer, Annet; Van Straten, Annemieke; Riper, Heleen; et al. (Evidence-Based Mental Health, 2021)
Background Quality-Adjusted life years (QALYs) are widely used to measure the impact of various diseases on both the quality and quantity of life and in their economic valuations. It will be clinically important and informative if we can estimate QALYs based on measurements of depression severity. Objective To construct a conversion table from the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), the most frequently used depression scale in recent years, to the Euro-Qol Five Dimensions Three Levels (EQ-5D-3L), one of the most commonly used instruments to assess QALYs. Methods We obtained individual participant data of randomised controlled trials of internet cognitive-behavioural therapy which had administered depression severity scales and the EQ-5D-3L at baseline and at end of treatment. Scores from depression scales were all converted into the PHQ-9 according to the validated algorithms. We used equipercentile linking to establish correspondences between the PHQ-9 and the EQ-5D-3L. Findings Individual-level data from five trials (total N=2457) were available. Subthreshold depression (PHQ-9 scores between 5 and 10) corresponded with EQ-5D-3L index values of 0.9-0.8, mild major depression (10-15) with 0.8-0.7, moderate depression (15-20) with 0.7-0.5 and severe depression (20 or higher) with 0.6-0.0. A five-point improvement in PHQ-9 corresponded approximately with an increase in EQ-5D-3L score by 0.03 and a ten-point improvement by approximately 0.25. Conclusions and Clinical Implications The conversion table between the PHQ-9 and the EQ-5D-3L scores will enable fine-grained assessment of burden of depression at its various levels of severity and of impacts of its various treatments.
