This study investigated the changes in coping styles of patients with acquired brain injury who underwent cognitive rehabilitation, and the effects of these changes on their quality of life. Participants were 110 patients in the chronic phase post-injury, who underwent outpatient cognitive rehabilitation according to current guidelines and standards. Coping style (Utrecht Coping List) was measured at the start of rehabilitation (T0) and repeated at least 5 months later (T1). Coping style was related to quality of life measured at T1 (Life Satisfaction Questionnaire and Stroke-Adapted Sickness Impact Profile). Results indicated that active problem-focused coping styles decreased and passive emotion-focused coping styles increased significantly between T0 and T1. Furthermore, the study showed that increases in active problem-focused coping styles and decreases in passive emotion-focused coping styles predicted a higher quality of life in the long term. These changes in coping styles are adaptive for the adjustment process in the chronic phase post-injury. Overall however, most participants showed maladaptive changes in coping styles. Implications for cognitive rehabilitation are therefore discussed.

Aim: The importance of parents' involvement in their child's medical care has been extensively discussed in the literature, and studies have indicated the need to expand the active role of parents in decision-making processes regarding such care. However, parents' actual wish to be active and informed in this context remains underexplored. The aim of the current study was to explore this gap by investigating the association between parents' shared decision-making (SDM) experience and their well-being during the course of their child's medical care, with a focus on parents' clinical decision-making style as a possible moderator.

Background: Gambling-related harms can negatively impact the health and wellbeing of those around the person who gambles (affected others, AOs). The stress-strain-coping-support (SSCS) model proposes that the type of coping strategies AOs use, and the availability of social support, can effectively reduce some of these negative consequences. The current study aimed to explore the assumptions in the SSCS model by examining the role of coping styles and social support on the experience of harm and psychological distress in AOs.

Background: Compassion fatigue is a significant issue in nursing, affecting both registered nurses and nursing students, potentially leading to burnout and reduced quality of care. During internships, compassion fatigue can shape nursing students' career trajectories and intent to stay in the profession. Identifying those at high risk is crucial for timely interventions, yet existing tools often fail to account for within-group variability, limiting their ability to accurately predict compassion fatigue risk.

Cognitive motivation (COM) in conjunction with self-regulation (SR) was demonstrated to be positively linked to mental health in educational and clinical contexts. We introduce COM and SR in the occupational context and hypothesize these traits-based on their conceptual link to hardiness - to counteract health-risking stressors. Data from two large cross-sectional studies in Germany comprise a sample of 1,022 psychosomatic rehabilitation in-patients and a healthy sample of 298 employees of various occupations.
