The recently developed Subjective Emptiness Scale (SES) is a user-friendly measure that fills this gap. In this study, the German version of the SES was psychometrically evaluated in a rather large general population sample.Respondents from a sample representative of the German general population (N=2508) completed the SES and other instruments to measure psychological distress. The eval-uation included a confirmatory factor analysis, calculation of test statistics (e. g., item-total correlations, internal consistency) and correlation analyses of the sum score with sociodemographic and clinical variables. In addition, age- and gender-specific norm values were determined in the form of T-values.The SES demonstrated a unidimensional factor structure with good model fit (CFI=0.999; TLI=0.998) and excellent internal consistency (McDonald's ω=0.92). Corrected item-total correlation was above 0.75 in all instances. Significant positive correlations of the sum score were found with depression and anxiety symptoms, providing evidence for criterion validity. Normative T-scores were established for age groups and gender; an SES value of 11 can be considered to be markedly increased (T₇₀).The German version of the SES proves to be a reliable and potentially valid instrument for measuring subjective emptiness.

Specifically, it was investigated whether the risk index contributes additional explanatory value beyond sick leave duration in the year preceding rehabilitation. Sociodemographic, clinical, and motivational differences between risk groups were also analyzed.This retrospective study was based on data from 725 patients treated at a rehabilitation center between September 2022 and December 2023. Participants were categorized by risk level (high, medium, low). Measures included depression severity (PHQ-9), work motivation (DIAMO), subjective return-to-work expectations (SPE), and social-medical assessments. Statistical analyses included ANOVAs, multiple and logistic regressions, and the Reliable Change Index.The high-risk group was older, more frequently female, and more likely to have been on extended sick leave. They reported poorer subjective and social-medical return-to-work expectations, lower work motivation, more avoidant behavior, and reduced participation capabilities. The risk index significantly predicted depression severity at discharge, though less strongly than prior depression levels and sick leave duration. It did not significantly predict return-to-work status at discharge.The risk index provides additional value in predicting psychological treatment outcomes, but not in forecasting work ability. Clinically relevant differences in motivation, participation assessment, and return-to-work expectations in the high-risk group underline the need for targeted early interventions. Conclusion While useful for identifying vulnerable groups, the risk index does not replace individualized assessments of occupational and psychological burdens. Early recognition and promotion of motivational and functional resources are essential for successful rehabilitation.</p>","PeriodicalId":47315,"journal":{"name":"Psychotherapie Psychosomatik Medizinische Psychologie","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145303988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Until OPD-3, the 'conflict' and 'structure' axes were considered separately, which resulted in a fragmentation of psychodynamic understanding. The OPD-3 changes this separation by now assessing conflicts at all levels of structural integration, which enables a more integrative view. In this study, the relationships between the conflicts and their coping modes were analyzed as a function of structural impairment (low vs. severely impaired). The study comprised two clinical subsamples with a total of N=3678 psychotherapy patients (N=1645 inpatients; N=2032 outpatients).

There were no group differences for the intraindividual variability measure in the OPD-KF or in the network models (network invariance test).

The sample consists of 64 patients (51,6% women) aged 19-83 years (M=39,6, MD=35,5, SD=15,7) with suicidal behaviour who participated in ASSIP flex. The survey was conducted at two measurement points, before (t0) and after (t1) the ASSIP flex treatment, and after each of the three ASSIP flex sessions. Sociodemographic characteristics (e. g. age, gender), health-related data (e. g. therapeutic alliance, self-efficacy) and information on suicidal ideation and behaviour (e. g. intensity of suicidal thoughts, number of suicide attempts) were collected at both measurement points. The therapeutic alliance was recorded after each ASSIP flex session.Over the three therapy sessions, an increase in therapeutic alliance was observed (F(1, 63)=48,081, p<0,001). An increase in self-efficacy was observed from t0 to t1 (t(63)=-3,410, p<0,001). A positive relation between self-efficacy at t0 and the therapeutic alliance was found at both the first (β=0,433, p<0,001) and the third therapy session (β=0,293, p=0,041).

Bariatric surgery is an important therapeutic approach, the long-term success of which can be influenced by psychosocial factors. This longitudinal study investigates the influence of attachment style on the long-term success of surgery.

Data was collected preoperatively (approx. 3 months before the operation) and postoperatively at the end of 2019/beginning of 2020. In addition to socio-demographic data, weight-related data and psychosocial stress factors were collected. The success of the operation was defined on the basis of the weight reduction achieved, the improvement in quality of life and the reduction in depression, anxiety and overall psychological stress. Postoperatively, the attachment style (categorised as secure-attached and insecure-attached) was assessed. Questionnaires were used except for the weight-related data. The attachment style is relevant for postoperative success in relation to the variables of depression and overall psychological stress. Securely attached participants showed significant improvements in these variables, while insecurely attached participants showed stagnating or slightly worsening values postoperatively. Regarding BMI, significant postoperative improvements were observed in all participants, regardless of attachment style.

Interpersonal problems are closely linked to mental health disorders and are often a central focus of psychotherapeutic interventions. Recent findings underscore the importance of interpersonal aspects for understanding and treating mental health disorders, particularly personality disorders, especially through a dimensional perspective as emphasized in DSM-5 and ICD-11.Using data from 7,507 patients in a psychosomatic rehabilitation clinic, we evaluated the internal consistency and construct validity of the IIP-32, as well as its correlations with key variables such as attachment avoidance, attachment anxiety, and structural deficits in personality functioning, measured with the OPD-SFK and ECR-RD12. Additionally, the circumplex structure of the IIP-32 was assessed through correlation-based analyses with the SASB.Overall interpersonal distress correlated strongly with structural deficits in personality functioning (r=0.71), attachment anxiety (r=0.45), and attachment avoidance (r=0.38). Attachment avoidance showed strong associations with hostile-withdrawing and socially avoidant behavior (r=0.50), while no relevant associations with friendly-dominant interpersonal problems were found. The IIP-32 primarily captured submissive-avoidant interpersonal patterns, which were linked to deficits in personality structure. SASB analyses confirmed the circumplex structure of the IIP-32 (R²>0.80) and its alignment with the dominance and affiliation axes. High correlations with structural deficits support the convergent validity, while differentiated associations with attachment measures and interpersonal profiles in the SASB model indicate discriminant validity.The findings demonstrate that the IIP-32 is a reliable instrument for the differentiated assessment of interpersonal problems. The combination of analyses with the OPD-SFK, ECR-RD12, and SASB provides evidence for the structural validity and clinical utility of the IIP-32, both for diagnosing interpersonal distress and identifying specific behavioral patterns that can be addressed in psychotherapy.</p>","PeriodicalId":47315,"journal":{"name":"Psychotherapie Psychosomatik Medizinische Psychologie","volume":" ","pages":"384-394"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143732391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
