Temperament and Early Intentions to Retire
2019
Abstract Objective: To examine associations between temperament traits and early retirement intentions. Methods: In the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966, we analyzed early retirement intentions at the age 46 according to Cloninger temperament traits at the age 46 (n = 4409) and at the age 31 (n = 3226). Ordinal logistic regression analyses were used. Adjustments were made for marital status, education, work type, job satisfaction, perceived health, and mental health problems. Results: 11% of men and 9% of women had strong retirement intentions. Especially higher harm avoidance was associated with higher early retirement intentions in both sexes at the age of 46. A similar pattern of resul…
Psykoosilääkehoidon ohjaus voi tehostaa skitsofrenian hoitoa
2022
Psykoosilääkkeet lievittävät skitsofrenian psykoosioireita ja vähentävät relapsiriskiä. Psykoosilääkityksen pitkäaikaiskäytön hyöty-haittasuhde skitsofrenian hoidossa on osin tuntematon. Etenkin suurten psykoosilääkeannosten pitkäaikaiskäyttö voi altistaa metabolisille, neurologisille, kognitiivisille ja psykologisille haitoille. Psykoosilääkehoidon haittoja voidaan minimoida systemaattisella lääkehoidon ohjauksella, jossa lääkehoito suunnitellaan ja toteutetaan moniammatillisessa yhteistyössä potilaan ja hänen läheistensä kanssa. Lääkehoidon ohjaus voi auttaa käyttämään pienintä vaikuttavaa hoitoannosta sekä parantaa hoitoon sitoutumista ja hoidon tuloksellisuutta. Skitsofrenian psykoosilä…
Protocol for a participatory survey to investigate the long-term effectiveness of adult psychiatric services (PSILEAPS) : a prospective exploratory c…
2022
Mental health research and practice is currently moving beyond a focus on group-level symptom reduction models. Hence, research and treatment increasingly emphasize the real-life individual needs of service users and their social networks. One example is the Open Dialogue approach (OD), which has demonstrated promising outcomes in the Finnish Western Lapland (WL) catchment area. Nevertheless, it is unclear how OD-based services have so far been maintained in WL. It is also unclear how the experiences of multi-disciplinary care teams, service users and their social network members differ, with regard to differing approaches to mental health treatment. More generally, there is a global need f…
Verbal learning and memory and their associations with brain morphology and illness course in schizophrenia spectrum psychoses.
2012
The California Verbal Learning Test and structural brain imaging were administered to 57 subjects with schizophrenia spectrum disorders and 94 controls in a general population sample. Cases had lower semantic cluster scores. Poorer verbal memory strategies were associated with longer duration of illness and heavier use of antipsychotic medication. After controlling for duration of illness, sex, and total gray matter, poorer verbal memory was associated with lower gray matter volume in the cingulate cortex, juxtapositional lobule, right superior temporal gyrus, and precuneus. After controlling for use of antipsychotic medication, there was an association between higher serial clustering and …
