Bariatric surgery is recommended in the S3 guideline as a treatment option from a BMI≥40 kg/m<sup>2</sup> without comorbidities or from a BMI≥35 kg/m<sup>2</sup> with at least one obesity-associated comorbidity. 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. The sample comprises N=30 participants with obesity (M/SD age=56.2/8.6 years, 83.3% female) who underwent bariatric sleeve gastrectomy between 2010 and 2015. 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. The results indicate that the attachment groups do not benefit equally from the operation in terms of psychosocial variables in the long term. It is therefore necessary to identify vulnerable patients preoperatively in order to ensure customised support. Individualised, attachment-oriented care appears to be particularly effective.</p>","PeriodicalId":47315,"journal":{"name":"Psychotherapie Psychosomatik Medizinische Psychologie","volume":" ","pages":"395-402"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144259028","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}

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}

The East German (GDR) weekly nurseries (Wochenkrippen), in which young children and infants were cared for continuously day and night from Monday to Friday, can serve as a testbed for investigating possible long-term psychological consequences of early emotional deprivation.The study examined n=324 former Wochenkrippenkinder (children in weekly nursery care; WK, mean age=55.2 years; 76.9% female) regarding their mental health using self-report questionnaires. In addition, two control groups of former GDR citizens were assessed, a) n=89 participants who experienced day nursery care (TK) and b) n=97 participants who experienced family care only during the first three years of life (FM). A subsample (WK: n=49, TK: n=35, FM: n=44) was examined using a structured clinical interview for mental disorders (Mini-DIPS).The WK group was associated with higher scores across all outcome measures (PHQ-4, CID-S, PSS-10), even after controlling for sociodemographic variables.

A possible bias due to the self-selection of study participants might limit the generalizability of the results.The results add to the current state of research on the long-lasting detrimental consequences of residential care in early childhood.

Both scales were significantly related to self-assessment of social activity and were associated with increased sensitivity to stigma. Furthermore, about 50% of participants exceeded the ITQ threshold for clinical significance.The study suggests elevated depression and anxiety symptoms among Ukrainian refugees, indicating the need for tailored interventions.

The aim was to determine whether these men are at a higher risk of post-traumatic stress compared to men undergoing a secondary cesarean section and what affective experiences they report retrospectively.Fathers (secondary cesarean [N=103] vs. emergency cesarean [N=52]) were retrospectively surveyed using a questionnaire developed by the Department of Medical Psychology and the Women's Clinic of the University Hospital of Ulm. The study focused on unplanned cesarean sections during the period from January 1, 2017, to June 30, 2019. The questionnaire consisted of two sections: Section A captured sociodemographic, biographic, medical, and psychometric characteristics. Section B focused on the experience of childbirth and afterward and integrated the \"Positive and Negative Affect Schedule\" (PANAS) and the Posttraumatic Stress Checklist 5 (PCL-5).During an emergency cesarean, fathers more frequently expressed fear for the life of their partner and child. The PANAS analysis showed that fathers in the emergency cesarean group significantly more often experienced negative emotions such as fear and restlessness. They also had higher PCL-5 scores, however, only three fathers from the emergency cesarean group and one father from the control group met the criteria for post-traumatic stress disorder. Fathers during an emergency cesarean felt less well cared for compared to the control group and rated the information about the possibility of an emergency cesarean as insufficient. After an emergency cesarean, psychological support was more often recommended but was not utilized. The majority of fathers desired a follow-up conversation with the treatment team. About one-fifth sought additional help after the birth, mostly from family or a midwife.The results of the retrospective study suggest that men experience higher psychological stress during an emergency cesarean compared to a secondary cesarean.
