However, our understanding of self-compassion has been restricted to examining it as a trait-like construct assessed at a single time point, thus limiting our understanding of potentially important fluctuations in compassion within-person and over time. Therefore, to move forward the debate, the present study used a novel method, Dynamic Structural Equation Modeling, to examine the within-person temporal dynamics between CS and UCS. Participants were 114 German adults who reported their momentary state of CS and UCS six times a day for 7 days using a smartphone. Both autoregressive effects (i.e., CS at previous moment predicts subsequent CS) and cross-lagged effects (i.e., CS at previous moment predicts subsequent UCS) were modeled. We found evidence for positive autoregressive effects of both constructs while no evidence for cross-lagged effects. We further found that these effects are not constant across individuals, as indicated by the significant random effects. Our results highlight the utility of separating self-compassion into CS and UCS at the within-person level in order to better inform the development of tailored interventions.

Despite the benefits, recent research has found that engaging in antiracism advocacy may be emotionally draining and exhausting. It is important to examine factors that can contextualize, explain, and address the stress of engaging in antiracism advocacy. Thus, we examined whether types of racial-ethnic socialization (cultural socialization, promotion of mistrust, preparation for bias, and silence about race) from parents about racism and race-related issues would moderate the relationship between antiracism advocacy and stress. We conducted latent moderated structural equation modeling to analyze online convenience data from 407 racially minoritized adults (Mage = 34.12; 40% Black, 23% Asian, 20% Latine, 9% multiracial, and 8% other). Engaging in institutional (but not individual) antiracism advocacy was significantly associated with psychological distress, and this association was exacerbated among those who received average to high levels of messages, reflecting promotion of mistrust, preparation for bias, and silence about race from their parents. Conversely, stress was not significant for those who received low levels of these three messages. Cultural socialization was not found to be a significant moderator. Implications include translating these findings into a more nuanced support system and care for those engaging in antiracism advocacy and incorporating the context of racial-ethnic socialization in understanding the nature of the associated stress.

Conducting a systematic review is essential to address such gap. This review aimed to address (a) How were therapist-related unwanted events described and measured in the literature? (b) What were the themes for therapist-related unwanted events from the perspective of service users as reported in the literature? A systematic search was conducted in Embase, MEDLINER, and APA PsycInfo databases. A total of 11,596 records were identified. Studies that provided information about therapist-related unwanted events reported by adult service users who received evidence-based treatment through face-to-face individual therapy delivered by health care professionals, therapists, or therapists in training were screened. Twenty-one quantitative studies and 26 qualitative studies were screened in for coding and analysis. Questionnaires and semistructured interviews were the most common methods capturing therapist-related unwanted events from service users' perspective. Three key themes were generated, namely, (1) therapists' skill and knowledge, (2) relationship with therapists, and (3) being hurt or harmed by therapists. This study contributes to the growing body of knowledge on therapist-related unwanted events in psychotherapy for depression and anxiety. The results of this study can be utilized to shape the creation of guidelines, training programs, and initiatives focused on improving the safety and effectiveness of psychotherapy for individuals with depression and anxiety. These findings have the potential to enhance the overall quality of care provided in psychotherapy.

However, this population remains underrepresented in discussions about mental health (Borrero et al., 2012) despite their overrepresentation in unaddressed mental health concerns (Seaton et al., 2019). Within this population, there is an absence of literature regarding the mental health perceptions of the Indigenous Pacific Islanders of the Northern Mariana Islands, the CHamoru people. Further, little is known about how CHamoru people use their community strengths to promote wellness. This qualitative study explores the perceptions of mental health and the unique community strengths that exist within the CHamoru community. Utilizing a grounded theory approach, a thematic analysis was conducted with data gathered from 10 semistructured interviews with eight women and two men (Mage = 34.6 years) who identified as adults of CHamoru descent. Participants identified six key themes that are central to their culture and promote overall well-being: (a) embracing historical knowledge, (b) connection to land and language, (c) cultural value of inafa'maolek, (d) cultural value of respetu, (e) spirituality, and (f) ethnic identity exploration.

This qualitative study, guided by social comparison theory and self-discrepancy theory, explores how 10 Black and 10 White Dutch women rap fans, aged 18-25, compared their actual body image with this ideal and the emotional consequences that result. A hybrid comparative thematic analysis revealed that both Black and White respondents view the thick ideal as dominant in women rap and part of Black culture. They consider it a standard of beauty and sexiness, when achieved naturally and not through plastic surgery. Comparing their actual body image to this ideal can evoke positive outcomes, such as body satisfaction and the motivation to work toward this ideal through exercise or by choosing clothing that better expresses it. However, it can also lead to negative body images and emotions, such as insecurity, especially when this ideal is perceived as difficult or impossible to attain, or when peers or family expect conformity to this ideal. For Black women, comparison to the thick ideal may result in more positive outcomes, and this ideal is more frequently endorsed by their social context compared with White women. These findings indicate that for rap fans, the Afrocentric thick ideal is more relevant than a Eurocentric thin ideal, highlighting the importance of developing healthy body interventions targeting gender and cultural and contextual beliefs. Further, this knowledge can increase practitioners' ability to integrate an influential media genre when working with young adults across different cultures.

A series of moderated moderation analyses using Hayes' PROCESS program (Model 3) indicated that gendered racism, Black racial identity, and the two masculinity norms significantly predicted psychological distress; that several racial identity attitudes and conformity to emotional control moderated the relationship between gendered racism and psychological distress; and that emotional control moderated the moderated relationship between gendered racism, psychological distress, and some of the racial identity attitudes. These findings emphasize the importance of addressing Black men's psychological distress from an intersectional perspective suggesting that clinicians explore how Black men's experiences of negative stereotypes, their positive and negative attitudes toward their racial identity, and their conformity to masculine norms about being self-reliant and emotionally controlled co-occur to better understand sources of distress.

Framed by minority stress theory, this study examines associations between 319 TNB youths' (ages 13-22) awareness of familial grief related to their TNB identity and their own mental health (i.e., depression, anxiety, and suicide thoughts and behaviors). Results indicate that TNB youth who experience familial grief or loss due to their TNB identity reported higher levels of anxious and depressive symptoms and were more likely to have attempted suicide. We discuss how clinicians and providers in community settings can better support TNB youth by reducing the use of a grief and loss lens in interventions with families. Clinicians and other providers are encouraged to help families integrate a child's developing gender identity and expression within the family context and to interrogate the meaning of loss of cisgender privilege for the youth and their parent and family systems.
