Participants completed the Short Dark Triad scale and “consider” subscale of Acceptance of Cosmetic Surgery Scale. Descriptive statistics and evaluation of sex differences suggested that psychopathy was significantly higher in men and considering cosmetic surgery was significantly higher in women. Correlational analyses showed that psychopathy was associated with considering cosmetic surgery in men and women. Machiavellianism was associated with considering cosmetic surgery in women, but not men. Narcissism was not found to be related to considering cosmetic surgery. Findings of this study indicated that psychopathy is associated with considering cosmetic surgery. Moreover, sex moderated the relationship between Machiavellianism and considering cosmetic surgery.

Analyses of pain-related data collected by administering the Pain Outcomes Questionnaire-For Civilians (POQ-C) to participants in a CTPSCP at intake, at the 6-month mid-point (<i>n</i> = 51), and at the 12-month completion of the program (<i>n</i> = 33). A paired-sample <i>t</i> test was conducted to evaluate whether there was a reduction in scores on the POQ-C. The results indicated that there was a significant reduction in the POQ-C scores from intake to 6- and 12-months follow-up. The total scores on the POQ-C dropped from the 50%–74% range of pain to the 10%–24% range. Separate score decreases in the six subscales were statistically significant as well. These findings support the implementation of a CTPSCP as an effective adjunctive intervention, potentiating the standard medical treatments. Future studies should focus on direct comparisons between telephonic coaching and face-to-face coaching, and between pain management coaching and cognitive-behavioral therapy.

One hundred and thirty-one college students from a Midwest urban university participated in this study. Using multiple regression analyses, we predicted 22% and 36% of the variance in mindfulness and perceived competence, respectively. Meeting basic needs in exercise settings and perceiving that autonomous exercise behaviors were supported by health care practitioners predicted variance in participants’ mindfulness and perceived competence beyond the variance accounted for from global basic needs satisfaction. More specifically, findings supported the importance of competence satisfaction in general settings and exercise settings. In addition, students who perceived that their health care practitioners supported their autonomy in pursuing exercise also exhibited more mindfulness and had stronger perceived competence for exercise compared to students who viewed their health care practitioners as less autonomy supportive.

Fossum","doi":"10.1111/jabr.12066","DOIUrl":"10.1111/jabr.12066","url":null,"abstract":"<p>Achieving board certification in psychology is an important step in a psychologist's professional development. Board certification serves as a quality indicator for consumers, employers, and other stakeholders while providing enhanced opportunities for psychologists who complete the peer-review process that leads to it. This commentary provides an update on trends in board certification in psychology and explores the roles and benefits of board certification as well as barriers to pursuing board certification. Board certification is an important issue to consider because more mental and physical healthcare clinicians and researchers are now embracing the biopsychosocial model. Board certification could well help with maximizing reimbursement or clinical opportunities, as well as produce a greater understanding of the biobehavioral underpinnings of comorbid mental and physical disorders. Specialist data from the American Board of Professional Psychology and membership data from the American Psychological Association were reviewed across specialty areas. The work was archival and involved no human subjects, and therefore, this study was exempt from review by the Institutional Review Board of the University of Minnesota. There are currently 4,198 board certifications across the 15 boards of the American Board of Professional Psychology. These represent a relatively small proportion (less than 4%) of U.S. licensed psychologists. The numbers correlate positively with membership levels in corresponding APA divisions. Between 2011 and 2015, there was a 25.8% increase in the number of board-certified psychologists. Board certification appears to be undergoing a period of rapid growth among psychologists. This trend appears to reflect multiple factors, including an increased number of boards representing expanding areas of specialization in the field, a growing interest in board certification as part of increasing quality emphasis within healthcare, and psychologists' desire to distinguish themselves in a competitive marketplace. Board certification in diverse areas, including clinical health psychology, affords various professionally and personally rewarding linkages and opportunities.</p>","PeriodicalId":45868,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF APPLIED BIOBEHAVIORAL RESEARCH","volume":"22 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/jabr.12066","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49288061","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}

Nociception following bilateral temporomandibular joint (TMJ) injection of high dose of Complete Freunds Adjuvant (CFA, 250 μg/50 μL per side) could be detected in young adult male Sprague-Dawley rats using average daily meal durations as a measure of nociception for up to 19 days (Kramer, Kerins, Schneiderman &amp; Bellinger, <i>Physiology &amp; Behavior</i>, 99, 2010; 669) using ANOVA and multiple comparison range tests. In this study, we reanalyzed the data using a nonparametric permutation procedure based on absolute differences between intra-meal feeding rate curves. In addition to that experiment, we injected bilaterally the TMJ of naive rats with either a low-dose CFA (15 μg/50 μL per side, <i>n</i> = 6) or saline (50 μL of 0.9%, <i>n</i> = 4) and monitored the animals for 7 days. The permutation test of the intra-meal feeding rate detected the presence of nociception in the high-dose CFA treatment group for up to 40 days or twice as long as when using ANOVA on average daily meal durations. The permutation method also detected the low-dose CFA-induced nociception with ten times lower <i>p-</i>values and for several days longer than ANOVA of changes in meal durations. CFA-induced injury resulted in even reduction in intra-meal feeding rate and lengthening of the meals in both high- and low-dose CFA-injected animals. The rate analysis also showed when the rats first started a meal they were experiencing the same level of nociception as at the end of the meal. This demonstrated that intra-meal chewing itself did not alter the level of nociception. These results suggest that permutation tests based on differences in intra-meal feeding rates can be used as a sensitive test to determine and study the temporal patterns of TMJ nociception.</p>","PeriodicalId":45868,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF APPLIED BIOBEHAVIORAL RESEARCH","volume":"22 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/jabr.12067","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"35523368","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}
