This ability is innate but affected by multiple factors. Aims: This study aims to study the mother's ability to recognize a child's facial emotions and its association with present depressive symptoms, alexithymia, parenting practices, and styles. Materials and Methods: Seventy-five mothers of children being evaluated for academic problems were assessed through purposive sampling at a tertiary care child guidance clinic. The mothers completed the National Institute for Mental Health Child Emotional Faces Picture test, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ), Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS), Coping with children's negative emotions scale, and Parenting style questionnaire. Statistical Analysis: Statistical Program for Social Science (SPSS Version 21) for Windows was used. Descriptive analysis was carried out using mean and standard deviation. Other tests used for analysis were Student's t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's Product Moment, and Spearman's rho. Results: The proportion of EFEs correct responses (PC) was 0.776. The happy EFE had the highest PC and neutral the least. PC of happy EFE correlated positively with emotion-focused reactions and inversely with TAS score and authoritative parenting. PC of sad EFE correlated inversely with TAS subscale of difficulty identifying emotions and positively with expressive encouragement and authoritative style of parenting. PC of angry EFE correlated with expressive encouragement and inversely with distress and minimization reactions. PC of afraid EFE inversely correlated with TAS score, PHQ-9 total score, punitive and distress reactions, and authoritarian parenting and positively with expressive encouragement. PC of neutral EFE correlated with TAS score, minimization reactions, and authoritative parenting style. Conclusions: Impairments in EFE recognition affect mother's parenting styles and practices. Alexithymia and depressive symptoms can affect the ability to correctly identify EFEs.","PeriodicalId":52916,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Indian Psychiatry","volume":"7 1","pages":"121 - 129"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41830348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It's east researched and hence most confusing personality disorder, both in terms of assessment and management leading to dropout or low engagement in the treatment process. The authors have attempted to propose a working model for SzPD ensuing their endeavour in management of a case. It's single case study design of a male presented with aimless behaviour, decreased social interaction, poor hygiene, daily alcohol consumption and feeling of boredom. CBT was initiated for depressive symptoms and alcohol dependence with occasional use of substances. The process and response to therapy indicated underlying psychopathology in personality after 13 sessions. Once diagnosis of SzPD was confirmed various techniques were used in therapy with total more than 65 sessions before termination was introduced. The outcome was significant reduction in alcohol intake, identifying triggers and its consequences. The sequel of social withdrawal and benefit of social interaction in occupational functioning. It's helpful to validate patient's unpleasantness and avoidance associated with social involvement as a milestone to build insight into the resulting consequences. The intervention helps in accepting as well as altering one's actions and appraisal of events. The indifferent attitude and limitation of establishing rapport in SzPD can induce burn-out in clinician.

Anxiety is common in GERD and intensifies symptoms and lowers quality of life. In this study, we looked at the feasibility of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) in relieving symptoms of anxiety and health-related quality of life (HRQL) of these patients using a randomized control trial design. Materials and Methods: A single-center, randomized control trial was conducted to serve as a comparison between MBSR added to treatment as usual (TAU) and to TAU alone in patients with GERD. Pre- and postassessment were done with Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (ZSAS) for assessing anxiety symptoms. GERD-HRQL questionnaire to assess the HRQL and the Freiburg Mindfulness Inventory to quantify mindfulness cultivated and correlations analyzed. Results: Compared to the group not receiving MBSR, the MBSR group showed a greater decrease in anxiety levels indicated by changes in ZSAS (P < 0.001) and a greater improvement in HRQL indicated by the GERD-HRQL questionnaire (P < 0.001). Conclusion: The change in anxiety scores in the MBSR group was more than that in the control group. MBSR can therefore be effective in alleviation of anxiety symptoms and reducing the levels of distress in GERD patients.","PeriodicalId":52916,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Indian Psychiatry","volume":"7 1","pages":"107 - 114"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48139668","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Objective: The present study examined the association of cognitive attribute such as illness perception and self-blame with psychosocial adjustment and positive health changes (PHCs), with type D personality as a moderating variable. Methods: A survey of 66 eligible patients (34 males and 32 females with mean = 51.68 and standard deviation [SD] = 15.26) was recruited from 2 different hospitals in Assam, India. The purposive sampling technique was used to select the patients from early Stages I and II. The selected participants were divided into two groups: patients below 45 years and above 45 years. The participants were assessed by using the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire, Self-blame Questionnaire, Type D Personality Questionnaire, Psychosocial Adjustment to Illness Scale, and PHC Questionnaire. Results: The result of the study indicated patients experiencing overall poorer psychosocial adjustment (mean = 55.17 and SD = 14.26). In addition, self-blame, illness perception, and type D personality were found to significantly relating to psychosocial and physical adjustments (P < 0.05). While assessing the moderating effect, negative affectivity (NA) was found to moderate the relationship between illness perception and physical health changes (β = 1.09, P < 0.001). The finding suggested that illness perception and NA had a statistically significant effect on outcome (β = 0.14, P < 0.001; β = 1.08, P < 0.001). Furthermore, gender differences and age-wise differences were revealed regarding adjustment among the patients. Conclusion: Therefore, encouraging positive beliefs and thoughts among the cancer survivors, with interventions to manage negative emotions at a very initial stage, would promote them to have a healthier future.","PeriodicalId":52916,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Indian Psychiatry","volume":"7 1","pages":"60 - 70"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47743135","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
