First, if discussions of poor reporting practices by a test's users are interwoven with discussions about validity support for the test itself, readers can be inadvertently misled into impressions of the latter which are improperly conflated with the former. Second, test reviewers should give at least as much careful attention to a test's external validity as to its structural validity; test reviewers who prioritize factor analysis and internal consistency at the expense of discriminant and convergent validity can inadvertently mislead readers into perceptions of a test which are more negative or more positive than is warranted by the evidence overall. In this commentary, we aim to help test evaluators in crafting critical investigations of measurement validity.

Controlled treatment trials examining outcomes related to self-perceptions were synthesised (<em>k</em> = 20, <em>N</em> = 2041), finding small reductions in both symptoms of depression (<em>g</em> = −0.30; 95 % CI: −0.52, −0.08) and self-perception outcomes (<em>g</em> = 0.33; 95 % CI: 0.16, 0.49) for interventions compared with control groups.

For binary outcomes, guided (52.3% vs. 38.6%; log-risk ratio [LOG-RR] = 1.15 95% confidence interval [1.04, 1.26]) yielded higher remission, reliable improvement, and response rates, and lower suboptimal treatment outcome rates (9.3% vs. 10.8%; LOG-RR = 0.63 [0.45, 0.80]) than treatment-as-usual, active controls, and waitlists at ≥12 months. Insufficient studies precluded testing the efficacy between self-guided i-CBT and controls for binary outcomes. For baseline-to-12-month dimensional outcomes, guided i-CBT produced greater reductions in anxiety, depressive, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, and repetitive negative thinking (Hedge's <em>g</em> = −1.86 to −0.31), and self-guided i-CBT yielded stronger reductions in depressive symptoms (<em>g</em> = −0.51) than all controls.

This systematic review and meta-analysis synthesizes the existing scientific literature addressing the influence of cognitive factors, namely, expectations and attention on CPM. Four electronic databases were searched to identify relevant literature. Risk of bias and quality of evidence were assessed according to two modified Newcastle-Ottawa Scales and the GRADE approach, respectively. Twenty-four articles were included. Qualitative analysis showed more efficient CPM when pain relief is expected, and an association between intrinsic attention to pain and reduced CPM. Although the evidence is not unanimous, meta-analyses showed that CPM is more efficient when attention is directed towards the CS versus the TS, and is not influenced by distraction. In conclusion, while CPM seems robust to attentional distraction, expectations and attentional focus appear to influence CPM. However, the evidence is limited and conflicting and warrants further study in order to prevent cognitive confounding and enhance mechanistic understanding.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48458,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Psychology Review","volume":"114 ","pages":"Article 102517"},"PeriodicalIF":13.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142630786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, we explored whether DID patients' clinical reports of retrieval failure across identities were substantiated by controlled measures of memory. Nineteen empirical and four case studies informed the systematic review. The meta-analyses comprised twelve of the included studies. The systematic review findings suggested a degree of inter-identity memory transfer, a conclusion which was supported by two of the four meta-analyses. The remaining two meta-analyses evidenced patterns closer to IIA. Closer examination drew attention to methodological considerations that may limit definitive conclusions drawn from present studies.
