Embodied effects of posture: Changing emotional and cognitive processes through the body

2018

La cognición y emoción encarnada es un concepto que está revitalizando el interés por estudiar el papel del cuerpo en el procesamiento de información. Este concepto puede definirse como un efecto donde el cuerpo, su estado sensoriomotor, su morfología o su representación mental juega un papel fundamental en la configuración de los procesos cognitivos y emocionales. El cuerpo y sus procesos implicados han recibido escasa atención dentro de las teorías del procesamiento cognitivo que han predominado en las últimas décadas. No obstante, en los últimos años se ha producido un cambio en la forma de entender el procesamiento de la información, ya que la evidencia empírica señala que el cuerpo eje…

Patients Suffering from a Chronic, Irreversible Illness: A Novel Study on the Psychological Intervention out of the Hospital

2020

Objective: Patients with chronic, untreatable diseases have emotional needs that are often unaddressed by conventional care services within the healthcare systems. The situation of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is paradigmatic as there are few, if any, studies focusing on psychological interventions for these patients. This chapter describes a study that identifies and quantifies emotional distress, quality of life, spirituality, and key dimensions of health-related well-being after brief psychotherapy treatments at an outpatient clinic.

Psychosocial Safety Climate as a Factor in Organisational Resilience: Implications for Worker Psychological Health, Resilience, and Engagement

2019

Organisations are undergoing unprecedented changes in order to survive in a global and fiercely competitive capitalist market. Resilience is the capacity to endure challenges and is an attribute highly sought after in organisations, but is a construct typically theorised at the individual level. We argue that the notion of resilience can be applied at a systems level to the organisational context, and that organisational resilience presages individual resilience. Organisational resilience is defined as the capacity of the organization to cope with challenges through flexible, adaptable, humane, and interactive systems, whilst maintaining the health, individual resilience, and engagement of …

Emotional Self-Regulation Therapy: A New and Efficacious Treatment for Smoking

1997

Abstract We describe emotional self-regulation therapy, a recently-developed suggestion technique for the treatment of smoking, and present data attesting to its efficacy. Of the 38 individuals who completed treatment, 82% (47% of the initial sample) stopped smoking altogether and 13% (8%of the initial sample) reduced their smoking. A follow-up at 6 months showed that 66% (38% of the initial sample) of those who had completed the treatment remained abstinent and reported minimal withdrawal symptoms or weight gain. In a no-treatment comparison group, only 8% reduced their smoking or became abstinent.

Differential cognitive profiles of intimate partner violence perpetrators based on alcohol consumption.

2018

Despite extensive evidence of heterogeneity in intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetrator profiles, there has been little research into neuropsychological deficits that might help us understand differences within this violent population. Moreover, studies on this topic have not paid much attention to the role of alcohol abuse in neuropsychological domains of IPV perpetrators. Hence, the current study was designed to examine neuropsychological differences among individuals who have committed domestic violence with high (n = 28, HA) and low (n = 35, LA) levels of alcohol consumption, and non-violent individuals (n = 37) to establish differential neuropsychological profiles. An exhaustive neu…

Happiness, enthusiasm, anxiety, or even hatred? : Self-Portraits as a Means of Exploring Young Students´ Emotions towards Learning EFL

2010

 Emootiot eli tunteet ovat osa ihmisten jokapäiväistä käyttäytymistä ja siten myös oppimista. Erityisesti vieraan kielen oppiminen voi herättää oppijassa monenlaisia emootioita, jotka voivat vaikuttaa myös oppimismotivaatioon, asenteisiin kielen oppimista kohtaan sekä lopulta myös oppimistuloksiin. Yleensä positiivisten emootioiden on ajateltu vaikuttavan myönteisesti oppimiseen, kun taas negatiivisten emootioiden on nähty häiritsevän oppimista. Tämän pääasiassa laadullisen proseminaaritutkielman tarkoituksena oli tutkia kahden keskisuomalaisen alakoululuokan oppilaiden emootioita englannin oppimista kohtaan. Emootioita on tutkittu kielen oppimisen ja opettamisen alalla jo jonkin verran, mu…

Biased emotional recognition in depression: perception of emotions in music by depressed patients.

2010

Abstract Background Depression is a highly prevalent mood disorder, that impairs a person's social skills and also their quality of life. Populations affected with depression also suffer from a higher mortality rate. Depression affects person's ability to recognize emotions. We designed a novel experiment to test the hypothesis that depressed patients show a judgment bias towards negative emotions. Methods To investigate how depressed patients differ in their perception of emotions conveyed by musical examples, both healthy (n = 30) and depressed (n = 79) participants were presented with a set of 30 musical excerpts, representing one of five basic target emotions, and asked to rate each exc…

Adaptation and Implementation of an Intervention Programme on Spanish Carers and Adolescent Patients With an Eating Disorder: Study Protocol of a Ran…

2021

Introduction:One of the major problems with inpatient treatment of adolescent girls with an eating disorder (ED) is that the strategies learned during their hospital stay are not easily applied or maintained in their daily lives, and this has been related to high rates of relapse and readmission. The ECHOMANTRA programme was developed to optimize outcomes during and following inpatient or day-patient treatment. ECHOMANTRA is based on interventions for carers (Experienced Carers Helping Others, ECHO) and patients (Maudsley Model of Anorexia Nervosa Treatment for Adults, MANTRA) and is developed from the cognitive interpersonal model of anorexia (Schmidt and Treasure, 2006;Treasure and Schmid…

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Children and Adolescents with Neuropsychiatric Disorders: Emotional/Behavioral Symptoms and Parental Stress.

2022

The objective of our study was to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the emotional and behavioral symptoms in minors with neuropsychiatric disorders and on parental stress through a standardized neuropsychological assessment, comparing the data collected before the pandemic with those collected during the lock-down. Another goal of our study was to analyze the relationship between parental stress and behavioral/emotional symptoms in children. Our study was conducted on 383 families of patients who had already been referred at the Child Neuropsychiatry Unit of the University Hospital of Salerno for different neuropsychiatric conditions. All the parents completed two neuropsychol…
