An exploratory investigation of behavioral treatment response during inpatient rehabilitation for severe mental illness is presented. Archival data from 26 weeks of behavioral contingency management (CM) programs targeting treatment nonadherence for 2 cohorts of participants were analyzed. For cohort 1 (N = 39), a multivariate analysis of longitudinal behavioral data identified 4 qualitatively and quantitatively distinct patterns of CM response and these groups differed in verbal memory ability. Analysis of cohort 2 (N = 45) replicated the finding of 4 patterns of CM response. We further clarified behavioral heterogeneity in cohort 2 by using hierarchical linear modeling with neurocognitive and social cognitive covariates. Results indicated that memory, attention, and a high external locus of control (LOC) were associated with level of nonadherence at baseline. Reductions in external locus of control were associated with greater CM response during the course of rehabilitation. Implications for understanding individual responses to the rehabilitation process are discussed.

Background: HIV induced endothelial dysfunction (ED) contributes to cardiovascular disease (CVD) in women with HIV (WWH). Although psychosocial stress has been implicated in the development of CVD in HIV, its impact on ED in WWH remains unknown.
Objectives: The authors hypothesized that posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and HIV interact to contribute to ED in WWH.

Background: Depression significantly impacts an individual's thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and moods; this prevalent mental health condition affects millions globally. Traditional approaches to detecting and treating depression rely on questionnaires and personal interviews, which can be time consuming and potentially inefficient. As social media has permanently shifted the pattern of our daily communications, social media postings can offer new perspectives in understanding mental illness in individuals because they provide an unbiased exploration of their language use and behavioral patterns.

Background: Adolescents and young adults (AYA) with cystic fibrosis (CF) are at risk for deviating from their daily treatment regimen due to significant time burden, complicated daily therapies, and life stressors. Developing patient-centric, effective, engaging, and practical behavioral interventions is vital to help sustain therapeutically meaningful self-management.
Objective: This study aimed to devise and refine a patient-centered telecoaching intervention to foster self-management in AYA with CF using a combination of intervention development approaches, including an evidence- and theory-based approach (ie, applying existing theories and research evidence for behavior change) and a target population-centered approach (ie, intervention refinement based on the perspectives and actions of those individuals who will use it).

Background: Patient engagement is a critical but challenging public health priority in behavioral health care. During telehealth sessions, health care providers need to rely predominantly on verbal strategies rather than typical nonverbal cues to effectively engage patients. Hence, the typical patient engagement behaviors are now different, and health care provider training on telehealth patient engagement is unavailable or quite limited.
