Changes and predictors of adolescent emotion regulation, self-esteem, and locus of control during the COVID-19 pandemic: 2004 Pelotas Birth Cohort

Objectives: There is growing interest in examining the impacts of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on adolescent socioemotional development. This study aimed to examine changes in adolescent emotion regulation (ER), self-esteem (SE), and locus of control (LoC) from before to during the pandemic in a Brazilian birth cohort, and to investigate the variables associated with changes in those socioemotional competences. Methods: 1,949 adolescents from the 2004 Pelotas Birth Cohort were assessed before (T1, November 2019 to March 2020) and during (T2, August to December 2021) the COVID-19 pandemic (mean ages [SD] = 15.69 [0.19] and 17.41 [0.26], respectively). Adolescents' socioemotional competences were assessed, including ER, SE, and LoC. Sociodemographic, pre-pandemic, and pandemic-related correlates were examined as predictors of change. Multivariate latent change score models were used in the analyses. Results: There were significant mean increases in adolescents' ER and SE (mean ER = 1.918, p < 0.001; mean SE = 1.561, p = 0.001) and a significant mean decrease (towards internalization) in LoC levels (MLoC = -0.497, p < 0.01) during the pandemic. Factors that predicted a lower competency increase included family conflicts, harsh parenting, and maternal depressive symptoms during the pandemic. Conclusion: Despite the stress imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the adolescents of this cohort showed positive development in their socioemotional competences. Family-related factors emerged as important predictors of adolescent socioemotional adjustment during the study period.

Validation of the regret coping scale for healthcare professionals (RCS-HCP) in portuguese for Brazil

Introduction: assessing the ability to cope with regret can contribute to support strategies for health professionals. However, in Brazil only few instruments evaluate this ability in general. Objective: this study aimed was to adapt and validate the Regret Coping Scale for Healthcare Professionals (RCS-HCP) to Brazilian Portuguese . Methods: the instruments were translated, and the psychometric properties evaluated for validity and reliability. Three hundred and forty-one professionals participated, with an average age of 38.6 ± 9.2, and 87 participated in a retest survey 30 days later. Results: exploratory factor analysis showed adequacy of the structure (KMO = 0.786) composed of three factors. In the confirmation, the performance was close to acceptable. Reliability was good for the maladaptive strategies (α = 0.834) and adequate for the problem-focused initiatives (α = 0.717), but slightly too low for adaptive strategies (α = 0.595). Test- retest showed lower than expected values, with a Spearman- Brown coefficient of 0.703. Conclusion: the RCS-HCP scale showed satisfactory performance in relation to the properties evaluated.

STATUS OF WOMEN THROUGH EONS

Life in the 21 Century has changed, developed albeit rather slowly evolved to a higher dimension with the advancement of technology and education. However, one thing that has been dragged from the medieval ages into this new era is the status of women in the society. Women in the new eon are still ill-treated, and it is not astonishing at all. However, when a deep study of the subject is made in history, we understand that it is surprisingly a newer concept. In the ancient India, somewhere around the Vedic period, women were respected and valued highly in the society. A woman could fight wars, take part in philosophical discussions, join in festivals along with men, or even remain unmarried if she desired so. So, how and why did such concepts of inequality and discrimination arose in the past are interesting studies which are yet less-known to people. Later on, around the eleventh century, women lost these perks, and consequently their status in the society due to some social, political and economic changes. The rise in evil customs and traditions like female feticide, dowry deaths, sexual assault, rape enslaved women to the boundaries of their houses. Women were mentally threatened and emotionally handcuffed from being active participants of discussions, hence their role in the society became passive in nature. The process of reawakening of the human conscience begun in the 19th Century. Reformers like Raja Ram Mohan Roy and Swami Dayanand threw light on the need of eliminating all forms of gender discrimination and biasedness. The logic behind this activation of mind was simple- without women, life on the planet wouldn't have sustained. A woman is the source of creation, she bears a child and hence the progeny maintains the continuum of life. For the species to survive, both the genders were to be conserved equally. Hence, the society started acknowledging this perspective of mind, though with a steadier pace this time. This change wasn't easy to accept for most of the people who now considered men to be on the cliff, i.e. above and higher than a woman's st position. This paper displays the status of women and her empowerment in the 21 Century in all aspects of life due to the rise in education.

O processo civilizador e a busca da excitação no lazer: notas sociológicas / The civilizing process and the quest for excitement in leisure: sociological notes

Este ensaio objetiva discutir alguns aspectos do "processo civilizador" e do quadro teórico desenvolvido para subsidiar a investigação sociológica sobre o lazer. Neste contexto, são apresentadas algumas das críticas dirigidas à teoria figuracional, ao processo civilizador e, por extensão, ao quadro teórico sobre a busca da excitação no lazer. Norbert Elias e Eric Dunning dedicam uma atenção especial ao "espectro do tempo livre", no qual o lazer se contrapõe ao trabalho profissional e a várias outras atividades. Embora o estudo analisado contribua para ampliar o entendimento sobre a importância das emoções para as atividades de lazer, ele é passível de críticas que precisam ser apropriadas pelos estudiosos do lazer interessados nesta temática.

This theoretical essay aims to discuss some aspects of the "civilizing process" and the theoretical framework developed to support sociological research on leisure. In this context, some of the criticisms directed at figurational theory, the civilizing process and the theoretical framework on the search for excitement in leisure are presented. Norbert Elias and Eric Dunning pay special attention to the "Sparetime Spectrum", in which leisure is contrasted with professional work and various other activities. Although the study analyzed contributes to expanding the understanding of the importance of emotions for leisure activities, it is subject to criticism that needs to be addressed by leisure scholars interested in this topic.

Effect of Emotional Word Processing on Communicative and Social Functioning in the Elderly / Efecto del procesamiento emocional de palabras en el funcionamiento comunicativo y social en el adulto mayor / Efeito do processamento emocional de palavras no funcionamento comunicativo e social em idosos

Communicative and social functioning in old age involves cognitive and emotional resources. According to the Socioemotional Selectivity Theory (tss), older adults have an affinity for positive events and cultivate their emotional skills. Objective: To explore the relationship between communicative and social functioning and the processing of emotional stimuli in the elderly. Materials and methods: Older adults and young adults performed a computerized lexical decision task (ldt) and were assessed on their com-municative functioning. Results: There were statistically significant differences in the valence factor, with faster processing of stimuli with emotional versus non-emotional content (2196 = 36.39, p <.001); Regarding communicative and social functioning, when comparing it with performance in the tdl, it was shown that older adults obtained longer reaction times and higher error rates in the processing of stimuli, as well as lower scores in the asha-facs. Conclusion: Even when there is no evidence of an interaction between the processing of emotional stimuli and communicative and social functioning, emotional valence influences word processing in older adults, with a preference and selectivity for positive stimuli.

el funcionamiento comunicativo y social en la vejez implica recursos cognitivos y emocionales. Según la teoría de la selectividad socioemocional (tss), los adultos mayores tienen afinidad por eventos positivos y cultivan sus habilidades emocionales. Objetivo: explorar la relación entre el fun-cionamiento comunicativo y social y el procesamiento de estímulos emocionales en el adulto mayor. Materiales y métodos: adultos mayores y adultos jóvenes realizaron una tarea computarizada de decisión léxico (tdl) y fueron evaluados en su funcionamiento comunicativo. Resultados: hubo diferencias estadísticamente significativas en el factor de valencia, con un procesamiento más rápido de estímulos con contenido emocional versus no emocional (2196 = 36.39; p < 0.001). En cuanto al funcionamiento comunicativo y social, al compararlo con el desempeño en la tdl, se evidenció que los adultos mayores obtuvieron tiempos de reacción más prolongados y mayores tasas de error en el procesamiento de estímulos, al igual que menores puntajes en el ashafacs. Conclusión: aun cuando no se evidencia una interacción entre el procesamiento de estímulos emocionales y el funcionamiento comunicativo y social, la valencia emocional influye en el procesamiento de palabras en los adultos mayores, con una preferencia y selectividad por los estímulos positivos.

Self-regulation in youth with bipolar disorder

Objectives: To examine the composition of self-regulation in pediatric bipolar disorder (PBD) through the relationship between executive functions, emotion processing, and family environmental factors. Methods: 58 participants (36 with PBD and 22 controls), ages 12-17, were assessed using the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS), Conners' Continuous Performance Test (CPT-II), Wisconsin Cards Sorting Test (WCST), Computerized Neurocognitive Battery Emotion Recognition Test-Facial Emotion Recognition Test (PENNCNB ER-40), and Expressed Emotion Adjective Checklist Questionnaire (EEAC). Results: Adolescents with PBD displayed significant deficits in all three spheres when compared to the control group. Emotion processing correlated negatively with inhibition and attention, and correlated positively with mental flexibility/working memory. Family environmental factors correlated negatively with mental flexibility/working memory and emotion processing, and positively with attention and inhibition. These correlations indicate that better inhibitory control, attention, and mental flexibility/working memory are associated with greater emotion processing and a fitter family environment. Conclusion: This study is the first to investigate all of the components of self-regulation deficits simultaneously in patients with PBD. Results suggest that self-regulation is essential for a comprehensive perspective of PBD and should be assessed in an integrative and multifaceted way. Understanding that self-regulation is impacted by the abovementioned factors should influence treatment and improve the functional impairments of daily life observed in this population.

The effectiveness of dialectical behavior therapy for mental disorders / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), as an important representative of the " third wave" of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), has been paid more attention. Since the publication of the treatment manual in 1993, DBT has been widely spread in several treatment settings, including outpatient, community, and inpatient settings, and has been applied to the diagnosis and treatment of various mental disorders. In recent years, more and more studies have proved that DBT has a clear effect on a variety of mental disorders and psychological and behavioral problems, especially the clinical problems related to emotion regulation. This article summarizes and evaluates the effectiveness of DBT in the treatment of mental disorders and discusses the limitations of the current research and the future development direction.

The influence of embodied emotion priming on the attentional bias of individuals with depression tendency / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

Objective:To explore the effects of embodied emotion priming on attentional bias of individuals with depression tendency.Methods:From June to December 2018, a total of 91 college students with depression tendency were recruited to participate in the experiment.A 3(embodied emotion priming: positive priming, negative priming and no priming) × 2 (emotional face: happy and sad) mixed design was adopted to measure the attentional bias of individuals with depression tendency using the dot probe paradigm. SPSS 22.0 statistical software was used for repeated measurement analysis of variance.Results:In terms of attentional bias, the interaction effect between embodied emotion priming types and emotional faces was significant ( F(2, 88)=5.97, P=0.004, ηp2=0.119). Further simple effect analysis showed that, under the happy-face condition, participants' attentional bias reaction time(△RT) was significantly higher when primed with embodied positive emotion than those primed with embodied negative emotion((14.30±18.23)ms, (-6.53±38.17)ms, P<0.05). The participants' attentional bias △RT was significantly lower when primed with embodied negative emotion than participants with no priming ((-6.53±38.17)ms, (9.16±30.62)ms, P<0.05). Under the sad-face condition, the participants' attentional bias △RT was significantly higher when primed with embodied negative emotion((28.22±35.33)ms) than participants primed with embodied positive emotion((11.71±29.24)ms, P<0.05) and no priming ((7.63±30.60)ms, P<0.05). Conclusion:Embodied emotion priming can affect the attentional bias of individuals with depression tendency.

Advances in social cognition of obsessive-compulsive disorder / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

The main clinical features of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) are obsessions and/or compulsions. Due to its symptoms are heterogeneous and have a wide range of influences, OCD usually causes different degrees of damage to patients' social functions. Social cognition is the process of perceiving and judging the psychology and behavior of others or oneself. Its core is to understand the information processing process and the underlying mechanism of social psychological phenomena. Studies have shown that social cognitive deficits can affect an individual's social function. Therefore, many scholars believe that the social cognitive function of OCD patients are impaired. Through collecting and sorting out relevant literature, we find that OCD patients can’t perceive social cues accurately, and they have trouble recognizing their own emotions and those of others. In general, they are not prone to emotional response, that is, their ability of emotional experience is impaired, while because of their own emotional regulation dysfunction, they overreact to special events that can induce the obsession and/or compulsion.The patients have poor insight into the mental states of others.The researches on attributions of life events are dificient, so their characteristics of attribution styles are not yet clear.These findings provide a preliminary theoretical basis and reference for the specificity of social cognitive impairment in patients with OCD and for guiding clinical effective and precise intervention.

Development and validation of interpersonal emotion regulation questionnaire for healthcare workers / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

Objective:To develop the interpersonal emotion regulation questionnaire for healthcare workers and examine its reliability and validity.Methods:Based on the theory of social regulatory cycle (SRC), literatures review and semi-structured interview were used to form the item pool of the scale.Through expert consultation, project analysis and the exploratory factor analysis, the scale items were screened, and the interpersonal emotion regulation questionnaire for healthcare workers was initially formed.The convenient sampling method was adopted to select 619 healthcare workers from multiple hospitals in Anhui province to conduct the formal survey to test the reliability and validity of the questionnaire and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) using the SPSS 24.0 and Mplus 8.0 software.Results:There were 18 items and four dimensions including emotion identification, motivation, regulation strategy and implementation strategy process in the interpersonal emotion regulation questionnaire for healthcare workers.The results of CFA showed that the questionnaire fitted the data with well construct validity.The correlation coefficients between each dimension and the scale were 0.830-0.932.The Cronbach’s α coefficient of the overall questionnaire was 0.962, the split-half reliability was 0.880 and the test-retest reliability was 0.786.The score of total questionnaire was significantly positively correlated with the score of emotional intelligence ( r=0.680, P<0.001) and empathic ability ( r=0.554, P<0.001), and was significantly negatively correlated with the doctor-patient relationship ( r=-0.353, P<0.001). Conclusion:The interpersonal emotion regulation questionnaire for healthcare workers has satisfactory reliability and validity, which can be used to measure the ability of interpersonal emotion regulation in healthcare workers.

Status survey and countermeasures for trainees in standardized residency training of ultrasound professional base under the novel coronavirus pneumonia epidemic / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Objective:To investigate the behavior and emotion of trainees (residents) in the standardized residency training under the novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP) epidemic, and adjust the training plan and mode of standardized residency training during the NCP epidemic according to the survey results.Methods:A real-name closed questionnaire survey was conducted among 40 residents (27 ultrasound majors and 13 other majors) in ultrasound department using the "Questionnaire Star" WeChat applet, including basic personal information, questions related to NCP, behavioral change survey, behavioral attitude survey and emotional status survey. All the collected data were further statistically analyzed by Chi-square test and rank sum test using SPSS 19.0Results:There were forty valid questionnaires and the participation rate was 100.0%. The accuracy of 24 NCP-related questions was not significantly different between residents majoring in ultrasound and other specialties [92.0%(596/648) vs. 93.6%(292/312), P>0.05]. All the residents had a good understanding of NCP. The main behaviors of going out were significantly reduced, while various behaviors of being at home were significantly increased. Their interest in learning declined. When the epidemic happened (or possibly) in the community or village they lived in, their negative emotions, such as nervousness, fear pessimism and depression, were obviously expressed. Network teaching and evaluation through WeChat public number were adopted and we guided residents to adjust their home behaviors and emotions according to the survey results. Conclusion:Under the NCP epidemic, the behaviors and emotions of residents had been extensively changed. The training center should adjust the teaching plan and mode of training in time, and provide more counselling service in psychology and learning for residents during the epidemic.

Path analysis on relationship among tested hearing thresholds, conscious hearing, and negative emotions in noise-exposed workers / 环境与职业医学

Background The correlation between noise exposure and negative emotions of noise-exposed workers has received increasing attention and related studies have been reported. However, there is a lack of research on the path and effect analysis of the relationship between noise exposure and negative emotions, which will contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the health damage characteristics of noise in addition to hearing loss. Objective To explore the path and effects of cumulative noise exposure, tested hearing thresholds, and conscious hearing level of noise-exposed workers on negative emotions. Methods Using stratified random sampling, 312 noise-exposed workers from a machinery and equipment manufacturing enterprise were selected. Occupational history, negative emotions (including the feelings of stress, anxiety, and depression), and conscious hearing level of the workers were investigated using the Depression-Anxiety-Stress Scale (DASS-21) and a self-made questionnaire. The hearing threshold of the workers was measured by pure tone air conduction audiometry. Sound level meter was used to measure noise equivalent sound level at selected work sites. Individual cumulative noise exposure was estimated based on work site noise level and personal noise exposure history. Path analysis was used to analyze potential mediating effects of workers' hearing thresholds and conscious hearing levels on the relationship between noise exposure and negative emotions (including stress, anxiety, and depression). Results The positive rates of negative emotions among the 312 noise-exposed workers were 18.27% (57/312) for stress, 46.79% (146/312) for anxiety, and 28.53% (89/312) for depression; the cumulative noise exposure ranged from 101.0 to 136.1 dB(A)·d, with an average of 125.69 dB(A)·d. The distributions of tested hearing thresholds and conscious hearing levels among the workers exposed to noise were significantly inconsistent (P<0.001), with both unweighted and weighted Kappa values less than 0.4. The percentage of workers with conscious hearing levels higher than their hearing threshold levels was 16.0%, and the percentage of workers with conscious hearing levels lower than conscious hearing levels was 38.7%. The path analysis results showed that tested hearing thresholds had no mediating effect on the relationship between cumulative noise exposure and negative emotions. There was a partial mediating effect of conscious hearing level on the relationship between cumulative noise exposure and negative emotions, with a mediating effect value of 0.06 (95%CI: 0.03, 0.11) and a mediating effect ratio of 28.57%. Conclusion Conscious hearing plays a partial mediating role in the relationship between cumulative noise exposure and negative emotions of noise-exposed workers, while tested hearing thresholds do not.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of dopamine receptor agonist pramipexole and levodopa on emotion and cognition, and mitochondrial membrane potential of rats after global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. MethodsA total of 80 male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into sham group (n = 20), model group (n = 20), pramipexole group (n = 20) and combined group (n = 20). The latter three groups were used to prepare the model of global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury with Pulsinelli's four-vessel occlusion. The pramipexole group was intraperitoneally injected pramipexole 0.5 mg/kg once a day, while the combined group was injected levodopa 50 mg/kg and pramipexole 0.5 mg/kg, for 14 days. Five rats in each group were tested with open field test three, seven and 14 days after modeling; five were tested with Y-maze test seven and 14 days after modeling; five were detected mitochondrial membrane potential three, seven and 14 days after modeling; and five were observed under Nissl's staining14 days after modeling. ResultsCompared with the model group, the number of entries into the central zone (P < 0.05), total distance travelled (P < 0.05) and average velocity (P < 0.05) in the open field test increased in the pramipexole and combined groups seven and 14 days after modeling, duration spent in the central zone increased in the pramipexole and combined groups seven days after modeling (P < 0.05); the rate of spontaneous alternation of Y-maze test increased in the pramipexole and combined groups 14 days after modeling (P < 0.05); mitochondrial membrane potential in hippocampus increased in the pramipexole and combined groups seven and 14 days after modeling (P < 0.05), and it was less in the pramipexole group than in the combined group 14 days after modeling (P < 0.05); and the number of surviving neurons in the hippocampal CA1 increased in the pramipexole and combined groups 14 days after modeling (P < 0.05). ConclusionPramipexole may improve emotion and cognition of rats after global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury, and it may be helpful for restoring mitochondrial membrane potential as combining with levodopa.

The other was the facilitating factors: support from others including family support, professional help; positive coping including finding coping strategies, change of mindset.Conclusions:Healthcare professionals should pay attention to these influencing factors and construct a program for parental involvement in emotionally disturbed adolescents′ emotion management from various aspects, so that parents can actively participate in their children′s emotion management and promote the rehabilitation of emotionally disturbed adolescents.

Mediating effect of cognitive emotion regulation strategy on stress overload and stress response of palliative care nurses / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective:To explore the current status and correlation between stress overload, different cognitive emotion regulation strategies and stress response in palliative care nurses, and to provide reference for reducing stress reaction of hospice nurses.Methods:A total of 448 palliative care nurses from Beijing City, Jiangsu Province, Hunan Province and Anhui Province were selected as subjects by convenience sampling method in February 2022. The general information questionnaire, Stress Overload Scale, Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire and Stress Response Questionnaire were used to conduct a cross-sectional survey. After analyzing their scores, correlation analysis and mediating effect analysis were conducted.Results:The stress overload score of palliative care nurses was 66.00 (55.00, 67.00), and the stress response score was 80.00 (63.00, 84.00). The stress overload was positively correlated with the stress response ( r=0.735, P<0.05), and the positive emotion regulation strategy was negatively correlated with the stress response ( r=-0.440, P<0.05), negative emotion regulation strategy was positively correlated with stress response ( r=0.747, P<0.05). The cognitive emotion regulation strategy had a partial mediating effect between the stress overload and the stress response, accounting for 29.6% of the total effect. Conclusions:Cognitive emotion regulation is the mediating variable between stress overload and stress response of palliative care nurses. Managers should pay more attention to the stress level and mental health status of palliative care nurses, and guide them to choose appropriate emotional regulation strategies, so as to reduce stress response and maintain physical and mental health.

ResultsA total of 14 English literatures were included, all of which were randomized controlled trails, and the overall research quality was good. Mind-body exercise methods included Taijiquan, Qigong and Baduanjin. Most of the subjects were old and sick people. Physical exercise intervention with a duration of ten to twelve weeks, a single time of 60 minutes and at least two to three times a week could improve sleep quality to the greatest extent. The health status of the participants was an important factor affecting the effect of the intervention. ConclusionMind-body exercise can improve sleep quality, relieve anxiety and depression, and promote mental health.

The Emotion-Regulation Benefits of Implicit Reappraisal in Clinical Depression: Behavioral and Electrophysiological Evidence / 神经科学通报·英文版

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is characterized by emotion dysregulation. Whether implicit emotion regulation can compensate for this deficit remains unknown. In this study, we recruited 159 subjects who were healthy controls, had subclinical depression, or had MDD, and examined them under baseline, implicit, and explicit reappraisal conditions. Explicit reappraisal led to the most negative feelings and the largest parietal late positive potential (parietal LPP, an index of emotion intensity) in the MDD group compared to the other two groups; the group difference was absent under the other two conditions. MDD patients showed larger regulatory effects in the LPP during implicit than explicit reappraisal, whereas healthy controls showed a reversed pattern. Furthermore, the frontal P3, an index of voluntary cognitive control, showed larger amplitudes in explicit reappraisal compared to baseline in the healthy and subclinical groups, but not in the MDD group, while implicit reappraisal did not increase P3 across groups. These findings suggest that implicit reappraisal is beneficial for clinical depression.
