The purpose of the current study is to present the psychometric properties of the Short Schema Mode Inventory in the Turkish culture. The study sample comprised 1,287 participants, including both clinical and nonclinical participants. The age of the participants ranged between 18 and 48 years. The construct validity of the scale was tested using confirmatory factor analysis. The internal (Cronbach's alpha) and test-retest reliability coefficients were used to examine the reliability of the scale. Discriminant validity was investigated by comparing the nonclinical and clinical participants. Concurrent validity was tested via the Splitting Scale. The results of the study showed that the tested model had good data-model fit statistics. Additionally, the reliability analyses revealed that the scales had good internal and test-retest reliability coefficients. A significant association was found between the subscales of the Schema Mode Inventory. Furthermore, the scores of the clinical participants were significantly higher compared with the scores of the nonclinical participants for the maladaptive schema modes. Nonetheless, the participants in the nonclinical group had significantly higher levels of the healthy schema modes than individuals in the clinical group. The results of this study demonstrated that the Schema Mode Inventory was a reliable and valid instrument to measure schema modes in the Turkish population.

Introduction: Personality disorders (PDs) cause much suffering. In treating patients with PDs, it is important not only to focus on reducing symptoms, but also on promoting psychological adaptability and well-being. The experiential nature of Creative Arts and Psychomotor Therapies (CAPTs) contributes to working on psychological adaptability and improving well-being, although more evidence is needed.

This paper approaches the connection between musical constructs and visuo-haptic experience through the lens of the cognitive-linguistic notion of the "image schema." The proposal is that the subconscious inference of spatial and haptic schematic constructs in music, such as vertical movement, will motivate their equally common occurrence in the language about that music, irrespective of the fact that this language never describes the musical structure in a one-to-one fashion. We have looked for five schemas in the scores for the first ten piano sonatas by Ludwig van Beethoven and three famous analytical and pedagogical texts about them: force, indicating changes in musical dynamics and referential invocation of power-related terms in the books; path, identifying vertical movement in the music and suggestions of upward- or downward motion in the texts; link, suggesting the presence or absence of musical slurs and references to attachment or detachment in the language; balance, indicating the loss and regain of consonance in the harmony and invocation of lost and recovered stability in the verbal semantics; and containment, allocating the nonharmonic tones that "belong" to their resolving notes in the scores and referring to physical or metaphorical enclosed areas in the texts.

As a practicing clinical nurse, a phenomenon I experienced at times was the sudden acute sense that something was going wrong with a person in care at the sub-critical unit in the hospital where I worked. In fact, many hospital nurses have their story of "something's not right" in relation to a person they were caring for/with, in that the day started with them on a coherent path to healing and then suddenly the nurse feels something is going very wrong, and yet there is nothing observable that would justify such a feeling. This feeling would be called "intuition" by many nurses, a concept most notably theorized in nursing by Patricia Benner in her extensive program of scholarship.

Background: Advances in motivational science (Dweck, 2017), personality dynamics (Lazarus & Rafaeli, 2023), and process-based psychotherapy (Hofmann & Hayes, 2019) converge into a pragmatic, integrative, and transtheoretical model of practice and training.

Method: The model comprises three elements: a formulation centered on clients' psychological needs which provides guidance regarding the goals and processes most profitable to pursue; a recognition that such pursuit frequently requires contending with a multiplicity of clients' internal self-states (i.e.
