Background/Objective Research suggests that the COVID-19 pandemic has increased social isolation and loneliness and that, in general, single individuals experience a higher degree of loneliness than coupled individuals. Loneliness may also vary across cultures as a function of social norms and Hofstede's dimensions of national culture. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to examine whether

Dimensional emotions are represented by distinct topographical brain networks Int. J. Clin. Health Phychol. (IF 5.9) Pub Date : 2023-08-25 Yoonsang Lee, Yeji Seo, Youngju Lee, Dongha Lee
The ability to recognize others’ facial emotions has become increasingly important after the COVID-19 pandemic, which causes stressful situations in emotion regulation. Considering the importance of emotion in maintaining a social life, emotion knowledge to perceive and label emotions of oneself and others requires an understanding of affective dimensions, such as emotional valence and emotional arousal

Applicability of the cognitive model of generalized anxiety disorder to adolescents’ sleep quality: A cross-sectional and longitudinal analysis Int. J. Clin. Health Phychol. (IF 5.9) Pub Date : 2023-08-25 Huiwen Xiao, Yilin Shen, Weizhong Zhang, Rongmao Lin
Background Poor sleep quality is a prevalent health issue among adolescents, and few studies have examined the variables affecting adolescents’ sleep quality from the perspective of the co-occurrence of sleep issues and anxiety disorders. Therefore, the current study investigated whether the cognitive model of generalized anxiety disorder applies to adolescents’ sleep quality. Method In Study 1, a

Association of physical activity and fitness with executive function among preschoolers Int. J. Clin. Health Phychol.

Kramer, Toru Ishihara, Wook Song, Liye Zou
It is well-documented in the literature that high levels of regular physical activity (PA), low levels of sedentary behavior (SB), and high levels of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) are associated with superior cognitive functioning, especially with regard to older populations. However, concerning other age groups (e.g., preschoolers) the available evidence documenting such a positive relationship

Glucose metabolism, hippocampal subfields and cognition in first-episode and never-treated schizophrenia Int. J. Clin. Health Phychol. (IF 5.9) Pub Date : 2023-08-23 Meihong Xiu, Yong Fan, Qinqin Liu, Song Chen, Fengchun Wu, Xiangyang Zhang
Background Previous studies have indicated that glucose metabolism and altered hippocampal structure and function play a pivotal role in cognitive deficits in schizophrenia (SZ). This study was designed to explore the inter-relationship between glucose metabolism, hippocampal subfield volume, and cognitive function in the antipsychotics-naive first episode (ANFE) SZ patients. Methods We chose the fasting

Objective We aimed to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on psychological symptom burden against the socioeconomic background of cancer patients using data from routine assessments before and during the pandemic Method In this cross-sectional study, standardised assessment instruments were applied in N = 1,329 patients to screen for symptoms of anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress

Childhood trauma is linked to abnormal static-dynamic brain topology in adolescents with major depressive disorder Int. J. Clin. Health Phychol. (IF 5.9) Pub Date : 2023-08-05 Xuemei Li, Yang Huang, Mengqi Liu, Manqi Zhang, Yang Liu, Teng Teng, Xueer Liu, Ying Yu, Yuanliang Jiang, Xuan Ouyang, Ming Xu, Fajin Lv, Yicheng Long, Xinyu Zhou
Childhood trauma is a leading risk factor for adolescents developing major depressive disorder (MDD); however, the underlying neuroimaging mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the association among childhood trauma, MDD and brain dysfunctions by combining static and dynamic brain network models. We recruited 46 first-episode drug-naïve adolescent MDD patients with childhood trauma

Neuroanatomical and functional substrates of the hypomanic personality trait and its prediction on aggression Int. J. Clin. Health Phychol. (IF 5.9) Pub Date : 2023-07-28 Wenwei Zhu, Xiongying Chen, Jie Wu, Zixi Li, Hohjin Im, Shuning Chen, Kun Deng, Bin Zhang, Chuqiao Wei, Junjiao Feng, Manman Zhang, Shaofeng Yang, He Wang, Qiang Wang
Hypomanic personality manifests a close link with several psychiatric disorders and its abnormality is a risk indicator for developing bipolar disorders. We systematically investigated the potential neuroanatomical and functional substrates underlying hypomanic personality trait (HPT) and its sub-dimensions (i.e., Social Vitality, Mood Volatility, and Excitement) combined with structural and functional

Diminished emotion recognition with reduced face gaze in complex situation in individuals with broad autism phenotype Int. J. Clin. Health Phychol. (IF 5.9) Pub Date : 2023-07-25 Woo-Jin Cha, Kiho Kim
Background/objective Individuals with broad autism phenotype (BAP) showed a diminished ability to recognize emotion. This study aims to examine whether their decline in emotion recognition ability could be more clearly identified as task complexity increased and whether their decline could be influenced by their eye-gaze patterns. Method 41 individuals with BAP and 40 healthy controls performed two

Hypoconnectivity networks in schizophrenia patients: A voxel-wise meta-analysis of Rs-fMRI Int. J. Clin. Health Phychol. (IF 5.9) Pub Date : 2023-07-21 Silvia Ruiz-Torras, Esteve Gudayol-Ferré, Oscar Fernández-Vazquez, Cristina Cañete-Massé, Maribel Peró-Cebollero, Joan Guàrdia-Olmos
Background In recent years several meta-analyses regarding resting-state functional connectivity in patients with schizophrenia have been published. The authors have used different data analysis techniques: regional homogeneity, seed-based data analysis, independent component analysis, and amplitude of low frequencies. Hence, we aim to perform a meta-analysis to identify connectivity networks with

The role of mindfulness on theta inter-brain synchrony during cooperation feedback processing: An EEG-based hyperscanning study Int. J. Clin. Health Phychol. (IF 5.9) Pub Date : 2023-07-17
Mindfulness appears to improve empathy and understanding in relationships, which are necessary for successful cooperation. However, the impact of mindfulness on cooperation has not been fully studied. This study used hyperscanning technique to examine the effect of mindfulness on the inter-brain synchrony of interacting individuals during the cooperative tasks. Forty-one dyads were randomly assigned
