This study employed behavioral experiments to gather data on the responses of college students with depressive tendency (depression tendency groups) and psychologically healthy college students (normal control group) in word association tasks. The tasks were conducted under positive and negative emotional priming conditions to investigate the interpretation bias characteristics of individuals with depressive tendency. Additionally, an interpretation bias intervention was implemented to enhance positive cognitive function, weaken negative cognition, and strengthen the inhibition of negative information. This intervention aimed to examine the changes in interpretation bias among individuals with depressive tendency and explore the effectiveness of positive cognitive intervention. Individuals with depressive tendency demonstrate a significant negative interpretation bias when processing ambiguous information, particularly when triggered by negative emotions. Following active interpretation training, participants in the depression intervention group exhibited reduced inhibition of positive interpretation processing and decreased activation of negative interpretation during the processing of ambiguous information. Negative emotions can amplify the processing of negative information and subsequent behavioral responses among college students with depressive tendency. Conversely, positive emotions can enhance the positive emotional experiences of these students and alleviate depressive symptoms. Positive interpretation bias training has the potential to enhance an individual’s positive emotional experiences, modify or improve negative cognitive representations, and consequently reduce their susceptibility to depression.</p>","PeriodicalId":46972,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Cognitive Therapy","volume":"158 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141504050","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}

In some cases, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), the target imagery may also be episodic future imagery, and a sense of mastery may be more salient than an intervening caregiver. We aimed to compare how varying the target image and rescripting approaches influenced beliefs, emotions, or characteristics of idiopathic imagery relevant to OCD. We recruited 250 online participants high in OCD traits. Participants were randomly assigned to one of four conditions, reflecting variations in target image (memory/future) and rescripting approach (attachment/mastery). Self-administered audio-guided exercises were used to elicit the target image and facilitate rescripting. Participants completed a range of measures before and after rescripting. Participants in all groups tended to report changes in self-related beliefs, emotions, and imagery characteristics. In general, these results did not differ between target images or rescripting approaches. However, mastery-based rescripting reduced anxiety associated with episodic future imagery to a greater extent than attachment-based rescripting. These results suggest that the general benefit of modifying emotionally salient imagery tends to outweigh differential effects of varying the target image or rescripting approach.

Eight studies met the inclusion criteria. Within the sex offender category, rapists and child sex offenders endorsed similar schemas. For non-sexual violent offenders, schemas related to self-control issues and self-entitlement were most prominent. Sex offenders demonstrated more schemas that endorsed negative perceptions of themselves and others than violent offenders.

However, there is a lack of research that explores the underlying mechanism of how anxiety sensitivity is associated with suicide attempts. The present study examined the mediating effect of rumination and hopelessness in the relationship between anxiety sensitivity and repeated suicide attempts among psychiatric patients. The moderating effect of gender in this mediating relationship was also investigated. Two hundred twenty-nine patients who visited the psychiatric department at a university hospital in Seoul completed self-report measures and structured clinical interview. Data on demographic characteristics as well as anxiety sensitivity (ASI-3), rumination (RRS), and hopelessness (BHS) were collected. Structured interviews (SCID-5-CV) were also administered to identify their history and frequency of suicide attempts. The results indicated a significant mediating effect of rumination and hopelessness in the relationship between anxiety sensitivity and repeated suicide attempts. This association differed by gender, demonstrating a moderated mediation effect. More specifically, the mediation effect was not significant among men. In the case of women, the simple mediation effect of hopelessness was significant (indirect effect = 0.008, Boot SE = 0.003, 95% CI [0.003, 0.016]), and the serial mediation effect of rumination and hopelessness was also significant (indirect effect = 0.006, Boot SE = 0.003, 95% CI [0.003, 0.012]). The results imply a significant link between hopelessness and suicide attempts, specifically observed in women (interaction effect = 0.081, SE = 0.033, 95% CI [0.015, 0.146]). The present study highlights the prominent role of anxiety sensitivity regarding suicidal risks among patients with mental disorders. Moreover, it is vital to consider both rumination, a maladaptive emotion regulation strategy, and feelings of hopelessness to understand their repeated suicide attempts better. In addition, this study provides evidence of the importance of gender-specific interventions in suicide prevention measures.</p>","PeriodicalId":46972,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Cognitive Therapy","volume":"2011 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140603340","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}

The effectiveness of RFCBT in the treatment and prevention of depression has been demonstrated through multiple randomized controlled trials, all of which are conducted within Western cultures. Nevertheless, previous studies indicate that the consequences of rumination may differ across cultures. Therefore, cultural adaptation is a key in introducing RFCBT to the Eastern culture.
