Employees that had taken sick leave due to a psychological disorder participated in the study (N=25; 23 men and 2 women; Mean age 41.12 years; SD=7.67). The intervention program, which was based on the cognitive behavioral therapy approach consisted of two parts, CBT-1 and CBT-2. Six sessions of CBT-1 and CBT-2 were conducted. Self-evaluation and goal-setting using the Return-To-Work Self-Efficacy Scale were performed three times during the program. The results indicated that an increase in return-to-work self-efficacy resulted from CBT-1 and CBT-2. In particular, return-to-work self-efficacy increased from the middle to the second half of the program. A correlation between stress coping and the locus of control has been demonstrated in changes in return-to-work self-efficacy. Effective methods of supporting employees on sick leave are discussed.","PeriodicalId":341698,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Health Psychology Research","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134418047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We compared scores on the Parental Resilience Scale, the Childcare Stress Scale, and the 12-item General Health Questionnaire ( GHQ-12 ) at the end of the six sessions. The Parental Resilience Scale consists of three subscales; parenting skills, good relationships and maternal feelings. Results indicated that parenting skills, childcare stress, and mental health improved significantly after the intervention.

Next, we explored differences in the effect of messages according to the type of message framing and psychological traits. The results of an ANOVA indicated that usability scores of exercise behaviors were significantly higher in loss-framed messages,whereas acceptability scores of eating behaviors were higher in gain-framed messages.

Elementary school student-members of a soccer club ( N = 20; Mean age: 11.0 ± 0 ) participated in this study. Firstly, the optimal psychological state for performing the long kick was iden-tified in individual players. Then, participants were divided into a control and an intervention group. Performance tests were conducted with one practice and one actual trial. Just before the actual trial, the intervention group practiced the self-regulation method to achieve their optimal psychological state. The results indicated that kick performance improved significantly in actual compared to practice trials in the intervention, but not in the control group. Moreover, there were no significant differences in the psychological state between the two groups. However, it was also indicated that the psychological condition was closer to the optimum state in the intervention group that practiced the self-regulation method ( Cohen ’ s d = 1.0 ) . These findings suggest the importance of psychological support that considers individual differences.","PeriodicalId":341698,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Health Psychology Research","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128137908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
