Content analysis of the interview narratives shows that these women were poor, married young, and endured years of battering, isolation, and silencing for the sake of family honor and children's well-being. Entrapped within a web of sociocultural norms legitimizing wife beating, and abusive extended family relationships that annihilate their voice by branding them as maj'nuna/insane, these women explained that they were terrorized helpless victims fearing the stigma of being labeled insane and the resultant harm to their children. With the deterioration of their health, threat of annihilation, and imminent danger to themselves and their children, these women broke through the normative oppressive framework by becoming maj'nuna/mentally ill. Detached from the extended family and no longer caring to endorse a label that discredited what they said or did, these women overtly resisted by escaping to the family of origin and/or mental health clinic to reveal the abuse, divorce, and seek treatment. Severing all family ties, and now residing in public housing, these women felt safe to renegotiate a favorable identity and reclaim the right to live with dignity. Implications/recommendations: (1) The criminalization of battering and prosecution of batterers is not enough to deter when cultural norms sanction battering, (2) additional diagnostic categories are needed to identify the precursors of battering within the strategies of overt and covert resistance battered women adopt in collectivistic cultures such as mental and neurophysiological dysfunctions, and (3) it is necessary to transcend the individualistic model titling battered women within the false dichotomy of victimization or agency as it fails to reflect battered women's experience in collectivistic cultures and their resistant strategies to abuse in the extended family.","PeriodicalId":16289,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Interpersonal Violence","volume":" ","pages":"3986-4009"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142502183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This randomized, controlled, single-masked study included 22 subacute hemiplegic patients divided into a virtual reality group (n = 11) and a control group (n = 11). Both groups received conventional therapy for three weeks, with the VR group undergoing additional sessions using the BTS Nirvana system. Upper extremity functions were assessed using the Fugl-Meyer upper extremity scale, Brunnstrom stage, Functional Reach Test, Chedoke Arm and Hand Activity tests, and range of motion measurements. Both groups showed significant improvements (p < 0.05) in most outcomes, except for shoulder adduction (p = 0.222) and shoulder external rotation (p = 0.113). Intergroup analysis favored the VR group for upper extremity Brunnstrom stage (p = 0.030), shoulder external rotation (p = 0.029), and Chedoke arm test scores (p = 0.039). Time-group interaction analysis also highlighted superior improvements in the VR group for these measures (p < 0.05). The BTS Nirvana system is a safe and effective complement to conventional therapy, offering intensive and repetitive training for upper extremity rehabilitation in subacute stroke patients. Further research with larger sample sizes and extended treatment durations is needed to confirm these findings and refine treatment protocols.","PeriodicalId":47506,"journal":{"name":"Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback","volume":" ","pages":"517-524"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144033657","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we operationalized effort as performance improvements beyond speed-accuracy tradeoffs and argue that oculomotor kinematics offer a novel conceptual lens on effort regulation. We investigated the efficiency and persistence of mere task instructions to induce transient effort. In a saccadic selection task, participants were instructed to look at targets as quickly and accurately as possible (standard instructions) or to mobilize all resources and respond even faster and more accurately (\"to give 110%,\" effort instructions). We compared results to standard speeded performance (baseline block) and to a potential upper performance limit linking effort instructions to performance-contingent rewards (reward block). Eye movements were faster, more accurate, and initiated earlier when effort was instructed. Yet, these effects were more strongly pronounced and more persistent over time when effort was additionally rewarded. Importantly, a simultaneous improvement in speed and accuracy was only observed with reward. Altogether, the present findings show that instructions may spark effort, but reward sustains it, turning volatile engagement into lasting performance. This underscores that effort thrives when driven by purpose.

This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of psychological interventions for PrPCS (>12 months post mTBI). A search was performed across five databases (PsychINFO, Medline, Web of Science, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), & PubMed). Two independent researchers assessed the studies against pre-defined eligibility criteria and completed quality appraisals. Ten studies were included in the review and underwent narrative synthesis. Four psychological interventions for PrPCS were found (i.e., Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Neurofeedback Therapy, Psychoeducation, & Mindfulness-based therapy). Emerging empirical data tends to support the assertion that psychological interventions can improve PrPCS and quality of life. CBT appears to have the strongest evidence base to date and to be the most effective in improving anxiety, anger, and overall mental well-being. However, the evidence base is still very much in its infancy and requires research with more robust methodological designs to be conducted before any conclusions can be reliably asserted.","PeriodicalId":54729,"journal":{"name":"Neuropsychological Rehabilitation","volume":" ","pages":"1664-1694"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142830895","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The pandemic context represents an opportunity to study the interdependencies between family members and relationships under duress. The present study examined the transactional effects linking the marital and sibling subsystems throughout the early months of the pandemic. It was hypothesized that more marital conflict would predict more sibling relationship challenges, and vice versa, across the pandemic and that COVID-19 stress would moderate this relationship. Participants included 505 caregivers who reported on two children (sibling dyads) in the home at four time points (T1: May 2020; T2: July 2020; T3: September 2020; T4: November 2020). Caregivers reported on pandemic-related stress at T1, and marital conflict and sibling relationship challenges (conflict and lack of support) at T1-T4. Using a four-wave random-intercept cross-lagged panel model, results showed that, on average, more marital conflict was related to more sibling relationship challenges (p < .001). However, negative cross-lagged effects linked marital and sibling relationship challenges throughout the pandemic, such that greater sibling challenges at T1 predicted less marital conflict at T2 (p = .04), which in turn predicted greater sibling relationship challenges at T3 (p = .03). Degree of pandemic-related stress did not moderate the cross-lagged effects between marital conflict and sibling relationship challenges (p = .22). Differential mechanisms linking sibling and marital functioning may account for stable between-family differences (i.e., spillover) as compared with within-family fluctuations over time (i.e., compensation).
