The aim of the study is to report a planned evaluation of an ongoing psychological support within a prenatal diagnosis clinic, examining the extent to which it represents a source of support service for parental couples. An ad hoc semi-structured questionnaire was administered to couples who had received a prenatal diagnosis of fetal malformation, regardless of whether they had received psychological support. Descriptive analyses were performed on quantitative items, while an inductive thematic analysis was applied to open-ended responses to identify recurring themes. The results show that the majority of couples who used the support reported being satisfied with it. The ultrasound examination and specialist consultation were considered by the majority of the participants to be the most appropriate moments to receive the counseling. On the other hand, 41.38% of the couples who did not receive support would have liked to have received it. Finally, the majority of the couples, regardless of whether they received psychological support, would recommend that couples in similar situations seek psychological support and that other hospital facilities integrate such services. The results show that among couples who have received psychological support, most reported having benefited from it. In the absence of the psychologist within the multidisciplinary team, however, only a few participants have actively requested it. The findings are discussed in terms of the clinical relevance of psychological support at the time of fetal diagnostic assessments and specialist consultation.","PeriodicalId":15494,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Psychology in Medical Settings","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149110260","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 case series presents four pediatric patients with 46,XX karyotype who were diagnosed with CAH in early-to mid-childhood and represents a varying spectrum of CAH severity. In each case, patients had female-typical genitalia or their genital variation was not appreciated and further evaluated by the care team at birth; thus, all patients were assigned female at birth without targeted discussion on gender development. Each patient later experienced gender dysphoria and identified as male, transitioning socially and/or medically. This case series reflects on commonalities across cases, intentional non-adherence to CAH medication to allow for desired increased androgen levels, as well as mental health concerns.

This study aimed to examine the effects of ruminative thinking styles and cancer fear on attitudes toward cancer screening among cancer caregivers. This cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted between August 2025 and January 2026 with 446 primary caregivers of patients receiving outpatient treatment in the medical and radiation oncology departments of a training and research hospital located in eastern Turkey. Data were collected through face‒to-face interviews via a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Cancer Fear Scale, the Ruminative Thought Style Scale, and the short form of the Attitudes Toward Cancer Screening Scale. The results revealed a moderate, positive, and statistically significant association between fear of cancer and ruminative thoughts (r = 0.543, p < 0.001). Hierarchical regression analysis showed that fear of cancer explained 19.3% of the variance in attitudes toward cancer screening (R2 = 0.193) and that when ruminative thought was included, the explained variance increased to 22.4% (R2 = 0.224). Both variables were identified as significant and negative predictors of attitudes toward cancer screening (p < 0.001). This indicated that ruminative thought partially mediated the relationship between fear of cancer and attitudes toward cancer screening (indirect effect = -0.106, 95% bootstrap CI [- 0.171, -0.056]). These results show that fear of cancer and ruminative thoughts constitute significant psychological barriers that negatively influence the attitudes of individuals providing care to patients with cancer. This underscores the importance for care providers to develop interventions targeting these psychological barriers.","PeriodicalId":15494,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Psychology in Medical Settings","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149017066","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}

Parents of children with chronic illnesses often report elevated stress and psychological distress, yet their role in shaping children's psychological outcomes in POMS remains underexplored. This study examined whether parental emotional state mediates the association between children's disease-related factors and self-esteem. Thirty children and adolescents with POMS (ages 10-18) and their parents participated. Measures included child fatigue, processing speed, disease severity (EDSS), self-esteem, and parental stress and well-being. All participants scored within the low self-esteem range of the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES; M = 15.93, SD = 2.21), indicating reduced global self-worth. Among parents, emotional distress was evident, with 43% of parents meeting cutoffs for stress and low well-being. Mediation analyses revealed that parental stress significantly mediated the association between self-esteem and all three disease-related variables (fatigue: 95% CI = [.002, .059]; processing speed: 95% CI = [.080, 1.382]; EDSS: 95% CI = [- 1.041, -.044]). Parental well-being mediated only the association between processing speed and self-esteem (95% CI = [.076, 1.348]). Findings highlight parental stress as a robust pathway linking child disease burden to self-esteem. Addressing parent emotional state may improve outcomes and promote resilience in youth with POMS.","PeriodicalId":15494,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Psychology in Medical Settings","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148976987","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}

Mid-/senior-career psychologists experienced greater emotional exhaustion compared to ECPs. Affectivity, social support, autonomy, role stress, and burnout contributed to job satisfaction across all career stages.

On average, out of 5 healthcare maintenance recommendations, residents met 1.78 recommendations (SD = 1.17). Respondents cited multiple barriers to routine health maintenance visits, including lack of free time during business hours and negative feelings about burdening fellow residents when taking time off. Resident physicians demonstrated suboptimal adherence to recommended utilization of five preventive healthcare domains. Residency programs can mitigate these barriers through scheduling flexibility, protected time, and institutional incentives for healthcare utilization.","PeriodicalId":15494,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Psychology in Medical Settings","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148912599","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}

Three cohorts of learners participated in a 10-month long course concentrated on competency development within the PCBH model over a 3-year period. This course focused on preparing licensed behavioral health professionals to function as behavioral health consultants (BHCs) in primary care settings in rural and urban areas. The course was held in person and virtually. Learners completed pre- and post-BHC competency development surveys. Post-course surveys were completed to evaluate satisfaction with the content and impact of the course on PCBH skill development. The results indicate that the program yielded improvements over time, with benefits evident across modules and cohorts. While localized differences existed, they were relatively small and did not significantly impact the overall pattern of learning gains. These findings strongly support the program's effectiveness in enhancing knowledge and skills among participants. Overall, this demonstrates an approach to building and evaluating continuing education content for behavioral health professionals within the PCBH model. Virtual and in-person courses developed using adult learning frameworks for busy behavioral health professionals show promise as an approach that institutions of higher education and health care organizations can adopt to improve the clinical practice of BHCs in primary care settings.","PeriodicalId":15494,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Psychology in Medical Settings","volume":" ","pages":"443-449"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13582257/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148430121","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}
