Psychological Mediators of Reduced Distress: Preregistered Analyses From a Randomized Controlled Trial of a Smartphone-Based Well-Being Training Clin. Psychol. Sci. (IF 4.8) Pub Date : 2024-03-13 Matthew J. Hirshberg, Cortland J. Dahl, Daniel Bolt, Richard J. Davidson, Simon B. Goldberg
Understanding why interventions work is essential to optimizing them. Although mechanistic theories of meditation-based interventions (MBIs) exist, empirical evidence is limited. We randomly assigned 662 adults (79.9% reported clinical levels of anxiety or depressive symptoms) to a 4-week smartphone-based MBI or wait-list control condition early in the COVID-19 pandemic. Psychological distress and

Repetitive Negative Thinking Mediates the Relationship Between Sleep Disturbance and Symptoms of Generalized Anxiety, Social Anxiety, Depression, and Eating Disorders in Adolescence: Findings From a 5-Year Longitudinal Study Clin. Psychol. Sci. (IF 4.8) Pub Date : 2024-03-13 Cele Richardson, Natasha R. Magson, Ella Oar, Jasmine Fardouly, Carly Johnco, Justin Freeman, Ron M. Rapee
Sleep problems commonly co-occur alongside generalized and social anxiety, depression, and eating disorders in young people. Yet it is unclear if sleep disturbance conveys risk for these social-emotional disorders across early to middle adolescence and whether repetitive negative thinking (RNT) mediates this association. In this study, we examined longitudinal relationships between sleep (morning/eveningness

Rural Suicide: A Systematic Review and Recommendations Clin. Psychol. Sci. (IF 4.8) Pub Date : 2024-03-13 Tyler R. Pritchard, Jennifer L. Buckle, Kristel Thomassin, Stephen P. Lewis
Suicide is a public-health concern that has been linked to multiple biological, psychological, and social risk factors. Rural living is purported to be a unique risk for suicide for myriad reasons. Yet there are some concerns with rural suicidology, notably regarding defining and operationalizing “rural.” Furthermore, the last comprehensive review of rural suicide is approximately 10 years old.

Positive and Negative Emotion-Regulation Ability Profiles: Links With Strategies, Goals, and Internalizing Symptoms Clin. Psychol. Sci. (IF 4.8) Pub Date : 2024-03-11 Juhyun Park, Kristin Naragon-Gainey
Emotion regulation (ER) encompasses multiple, interdependent aspects (e.g., abilities, strategies, goals) whose collective contribution to mental-health outcomes is not well understood. To provide a more holistic picture of ER and better identify individuals who may be more susceptible to maladaptive ER and internalizing psychopathology, we examined latent profiles of positive and negative ER abilities

What Is the Role of Affective Cognition in Trauma and Posttraumatic-Stress-Disorder-Related Drinking? A Systematic Review Clin. Psychol. Sci. (IF 4.8) Pub Date : 2024-03-05 Michelle J. Zaso, Ian R. Troidl, Jennifer P. Read
Trauma and posttraumatic stress disorder (TR/PTSD) are implicated in deleterious alcohol outcomes, yet the processes that undergird these associations remain elusive. Affective (i.e., emotionally laden) cognitions may play key roles in TR/PTSD-related drinking that could inform prevention and intervention. In the present review, we synthesized extant literature ( k = 58) on affective cognitions and

In psychotic disorders, motivation and pleasure (MAP) deficits are associated with decreased affiliation and heightened functional impairment. We leveraged a transdiagnostic sample enriched for psychosis and a multimethod approach to test the hypothesis that MAP deficits undermine the stress-buffering benefits of affiliation. Participants completed the social-affiliation-enhancement task (SAET) to

A Brief Group Social-Belonging Intervention to Improve Mental-Health and Academic Outcomes in BIPOC and First-Generation-to-College Students Clin. Psychol. Sci. (IF 4.8) Pub Date : 2024-02-20 Erin S. Sheets, Denise Young
Despite greater emphasis on diversity and inclusion on college and university campuses, inequities persist.

Paranoia, defined as the unfounded belief that others intend to cause harm, negatively affects individuals across the continuum from healthy to pathological. Despite a definition that is explicitly social, paranoia is often studied as an isolated characteristic of the person who is experiencing it. In the current review, we propose that the study of paranoia could be advanced by adopting a perspective

State Perceived Stress Is Concurrently, but Not Prospectively, Associated With State Impulsivity in Youths Clin. Psychol. Sci. (IF 4.8) Pub Date : 2024-01-12 Katherine Seldin, Natalie F. Upton, Madison C. Feil, Michele R. Smith, Morgan A. Bryson, Liliana J. Lengua, Kevin M. King
Stress is considered a transdiagnostic mechanism underlying psychopathology. Research has suggested that when people experience more stress, they also act more impulsively. Most prior work has focused on between-persons associations or tested broad conceptualizations of impulsivity. We tested associations of momentary reports of perceived stress and appraisal of coping difficulty with three dimensions

Youths with marginalized identities experience minority stress, a construct linked to more severe transdiagnostic psychopathology. Financial, geographical, and temporal barriers limit access to psychological care for these individuals. Single-session interventions (SSIs), which mitigate many such barriers, are likely more accessible than traditional therapies. However, accessibility does not guarantee
