Mental imagery has been shown to enhance engagement in planned activities, as it possesses the capacity to augment motivation and affect. To examine whether the use of imagery is beneficial for behavioural activation in depression, this study compared an imagery-based technique (i.e., positive imagery shifts [PISs]) with another verbal-analytical processing technique (i.e., cognitive restructuring [CR]) and the waitlist (WL) group. Depressed participants (N = 111) were randomized to PISs, CR and WL conditions. The PISs and CR groups then underwent the 7-day training. Questionnaires were administered at six time points: preintervention, postintervention, 1-week follow-up, 1-month follow-up, 3-month follow-up and 6-month follow-up. Overall, compared with the WL group, both the PISs and CR groups demonstrated significant increases in behavioural activation, with the effects lasting for at least 6 months. Furthermore, these two groups also showed significant improvements in depressive symptoms, activity ratings and negative affect. However, a significant increase in positive affect, which served as one of the potential mechanisms underlying its therapeutic effectiveness, was only observed in the PISs group. PISs and CR exhibited comparable effectiveness in treating depression. In particular, PISs significantly enhanced positive affect among depressed participants.

However, research has often examined these factors separately, without analysing their interaction. To address this gap, we developed and validated the Obsessive–Compulsive Core Dimensions Scale (OC-CDS), a self-report measure designed to simultaneously assess guilt avoidance, disgust avoidance and NJRE avoidance that drive OCD symptoms. Two studies conducted on Italian non-clinical samples confirmed the factorial validity and psychometric robustness of the OC-CDS. The first study refined the scale to 18 items, revealing a three-factor structure with excellent fit indices. The second study confirmed this structure through confirmatory factor analysis, demonstrating good reliability, temporal stability, construct and predictive validity. The findings support the use of the OC-CDS for a more comprehensive assessment of the affective motivations underlying OCD, with clinical implications for personalized interventions.

It has been repeatedly shown that comorbidity between PGD and PTSD is frequent especially after violent losses, but only few studies have investigated the relationship between PGD and cPTSD. The network approach to psychopathology is well suited to investigate associations between different symptoms. We therefore combined a traditional investigation of the probable prevalence of PGD and its comorbidity with PTSD and cPTSD in refugees and used network analysis to identify central symptoms and bridge symptoms. A total &lt;i&gt;N&lt;/i&gt; of 92 treatment-seeking refugees who had experienced both loss and traumatic events completed a self-report measure of PGD and clinical interviews for PTSD and cPTSD. We determined the probable prevalence of PGD&lt;sub&gt;ICD-11&lt;/sub&gt; and rates of comorbidity. Network centrality and associations between symptoms of PGD and cPTSD were examined using network analysis. The probable prevalence of PGD&lt;sub&gt;ICD-11&lt;/sub&gt; was 28.04%. Of those with probable PGD&lt;sub&gt;ICD-11&lt;/sub&gt;, 65.38% also met criteria for comorbid PTSD&lt;sub&gt;ICD-11&lt;/sub&gt; and 19.23% for comorbid cPTSD. The most central PGD symptom in the network was &lt;i&gt;difficulties engaging in social or other activities&lt;/i&gt;, and the most central cPTSD symptom was &lt;i&gt;negative self-concept&lt;/i&gt;. The most important PGD bridge symptom was &lt;i&gt;emotional numbness&lt;/i&gt;. Results underscore the importance of screening for PGD in treatment-seeking traumatized refugees in order to consider it in treatment planning.

{"title":"Feared Self, Inferential Confusion, and Magical Ideation in Obsessive Compulsive Phenomena","authors":"Yoon-Hee Yang,&nbsp;Tess Jaeger,&nbsp;Richard Moulding","doi":"10.1002/cpp.70103","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1002/cpp.70103","url":null,"abstract":"<div>\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Recent literature suggests that the feared self, a version of self that one is afraid of becoming, is related to obsessive–compulsive (OC) phenomena. However, as this construct is not specific, the existence of the feared self itself does not fully explain why some people may develop obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) while others do not. This indicates that other constructs may play a role, in particular those that may influence the tendency of individuals endorsing negative imagined possibilities over reality—including inferential confusion and magical ideation. Inferential confusion is a reasoning bias specific to OCD and may be able to explain how OC symptoms develop from more general vulnerable self-themes and intrusions commonly reported in the general population. Additionally, magical ideation is another important cognitive bias that could explain the strong beliefs individuals with OCD have with respect to the effectiveness of compulsive rituals. However, to our knowledge, no study to date has investigated the relationships among these three constructs. Using a nonclinical population (<i>N</i> = 385), this study supported the proposed moderated-mediation model conducted via PROCESS. The link between the feared self and OCD symptoms was mediated by inferential confusion, and magical ideation was a moderator of the effects of inferential confusion. This study contributes to the literature by providing empirical support for the role of the feared self in predicting OC symptoms. It elucidates how a vulnerable self-view may escalate to OCD symptoms via inferential confusion, with the relationship strengthened further by beliefs in magical ideation which is often employed by individuals under stress.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Summary</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <div>\u0000 \u0000 <ul>\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 <li>While feared self is associated with obsessive–compulsive (OC) phenomena, on its own it is insufficient to explain why only some individuals may develop symptoms.</li>\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 <li>The reasoning bias of inferential confusion, where individuals endorse imagined possibilities over reality, was found to mediate this relationship.</li>\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 <li>Magical ideation, the tendency to have beliefs that defy culturally accepted laws of causality, amplified the effects that inferential confusion had on OC symptom severity.</li>\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 <li>While a nonclinical study, this suggests that clinical interventions that directly target cognitive biases such as inferential confusion and magical ideation, along with feared self, may enhance treatment effica","PeriodicalId":10460,"journal":{"name":"Clinical psychology & psychotherapy","volume":"32 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cpp.70103","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144331882","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
