Participant demographic data were collected. Instruments used included the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI), the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, the Patient Health Questionnaire-4, a brief form of the Perceived Social Support Questionnaire, the Demand-Control-Support Questionnaire, and the Leisure Time Satisfaction Scale.Results: Of 9888 staff, 742 (7.5%) responded. The mean OLBI score was 43.7, whereas the mean exhaustion subscale score was 22.5 and the mean disengagement subscale score was 21.2. Of the participants, 53.6% and 50.0% met the cut-off values for disengagement and exhaustion, respectively. In the linear regression analysis, those aged 20 to 29 years had higher OLBI scores than those aged ≥40 years (ß = 1.88, p = 0.001). Higher OLBI scores were associated with higher Patient Health Questionnaire-4 scores (ß = 0.52, p < 0.001), including the subscales of anxiety (ß = 0.30, p = 0.038) and depression (ß = 0.70, p < 0.001), lower scores for resilience (ß = -0.20, p < 0.001), particularly in the subscales of self-efficacy (ß = -0.37, p = 0.018) and cognitive focus (ß = -1.02, p < 0.001), higher psychological demand subscale scores (ß = 0.62, p < 0.001) and lower decision latitude subscale scores (ß = -0.33, p < 0.001) and lower social support subscale scores (ß = -0.47, p < 0.001), and lower Leisure Time Satisfaction Scale score (ß = -0.55, p < 0.001).Conclusion: Among HCWs in a Singaporean hospital, burnout was associated with age <40 years, the presence of anxiety and depressive symptoms, low resilience, high psychological demands and low decision latitude and social support, and low leisure time satisfaction.","PeriodicalId":39171,"journal":{"name":"East Asian Archives of Psychiatry","volume":"34 3","pages":"58-64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142773179","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}

This study aimed to investigate the moderating effects of age on the associations between exercise self-efficacy (ESE) and PA in women with psychosis.Methods: Data from 38 women with psychosis (mean age, 37.5±13.2 years) who participated in a community mental health project in Hong Kong were analysed. Psychotic symptoms were evaluated using the Scale for the Assessment of Positive Symptoms and the Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms. Levels of PA were determined using the self-report International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Long Form. ESE was assessed using a self-report instrument. The moderating effects of age on associations between ESE domains and physical activity levels were assessed.Results: Age was correlated with moderate-intensity PA (r = 0.51, p = 0.007) and total PA (r = 0.52, p = 0.002). The ESE 'must exercise alone' domain was correlated with moderate-intensity PA (r = 0.17, p = 0.009) and total PA (r = 0.15, p = 0.04). The ESE 'resistance from others' domain was correlated with moderate-intensity PA (r = 0.0003, p = 0.03). No significant correlations were observed between other PA variables and other ESE domains. Among women with psychosis, age was a moderating factor in the association between moderate-intensity PA and ESE, particularly in domains of 'must exercise alone', 'inconvenience to exercise', and 'resistance from others'.Conclusion: Among women with psychosis, ESE domains of 'must exercise alone', 'inconvenience to exercise', and 'resistance from others' as well as overall ESE were significantly associated with moderate-intensity PA in older age group only. Age-specific strategies should be applied when designing interventions to increase PA levels in this population.","PeriodicalId":39171,"journal":{"name":"East Asian Archives of Psychiatry","volume":"34 3","pages":"74-81"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142773193","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}

The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines were followed.

The asterisk specified plural forms of the relevant word. Four papers were identified, comprising one double-blind randomised controlled trial, one non-controlled open trial, one case series (presenting three case studies), and one paper with two case studies. The randomised controlled trial found no statistically significant difference in efficacy, using the PTSD CheckList-Military Version as the relevant outcomes measure, between the active add-on rivastigmine interventions and placebo or treatment as usual. The open trial, although reporting relatively positive outcomes, had a weak study design and lacked reporting of key information, including participant sex and age and pre-rivastigmine PTSD measures. The assessment of efficacy was based on participants' reporting of subjective benefits, and clinician-rating using a Clinical Global Impression, rather than established PTSD assessments scales. Although the five case studies reported improvement in PTSD symptoms, there were confounding factors and limitations in clinical and demographic data, warranting caution regarding attributed benefits. There is a lack of methodologically robust evidence supporting the efficacy of add-on rivastigmine for the treatment of refractory PTSD. Additional research may help in further evaluating its possible clinical efficacy.","PeriodicalId":39171,"journal":{"name":"East Asian Archives of Psychiatry","volume":"34 2","pages":"29-36"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141493851","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}

This study examined the factor structure of the Autism Spectrum Quotient 10 (AQ-10) and its associations with schizotypal traits (measured by the Schizotypal Personality Questionnaire-Brief [SPQ-B]) in a cohort of Chinese adolescents and young adults.Methods: Invitation letters, stratified by locations and housing types, were randomly sent to individuals aged 15 to 24 years for participation. Assessments were made using face-to-face or online interviews. Autistic traits were assessed using the Chinese version of the AQ-10. Schizotypal personality traits were assessed using the Chinese version of the 22-item SPQ-B.Results: In total, 395 male and 536 female participants (mean age, 19.93 years) were recruited between July 2020 and May 2021. Exploratory factor analysis of the AQ-10 yielded three factors (theory of mind, task switching, and attention deficits) explaining 55.11% of the total variance. Autistic traits were positively correlated with schizotypal traits of disorganised features (r = 0.21, p < 0.001), interpersonal relationship deficits (r = 0.19, p < 0.001), and cognitive-perceptual deficits (r = 0.11, p = 0.001).Conclusion: In Chinese adolescents and young adults, autistic traits, especially task switching and attention deficits (compared with theory of mind) are more closely correlated with schizotypal personality traits.
