The emotion identification group.

Am J Occup Ther

Published: April 1981

Emotion identification is an individual's ability to be aware of affective responses that occur during varied daily interactions. Through a review of the literature, how patients often seem unclear about the relevance of "doing" therapy to "talking/feeling" therapy is documented, an then an attempt is made to show how the occupational therapy emotion identification group can reinforce the patients' real-life connection between doing, talking or feeling. The basic premises formulated for establishing a method to promote emotion identification, the group format that incorporates this method, and patient responses to the method are presented. How occupational therapy interfaces with Gestalt therapy and therapeutic community philosophies is shown and methods are described to apply the Gestalt process of one's getting in touch with and taking ownership for both needs and feelings in the emotion identification group and in occupational therapy task groups.

Social isolation (SI) is a prevalent issue in modern society, particularly exacerbated during the COVID-19 pandemic, and it is a significant contributor to depressive disorders. Inflammation-related markers are upregulated in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) unresponsive to first-line selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressants. This study investigates the role of formyl peptide receptor 2 (FPR2), a G-protein coupled receptor expressed in central and peripheral immune cells, in SI-induced depression.

Emotion recognition and prediction plays a vital role in human-computer interaction (HCI), offering more potential for efficient intuitive and adaptive systems. This presents an innovative and efficient approach for emotion prediction from electroencephalogram (EEG) signals by using an Improved Sand Cat Optimization (ISCO) technique to enhance prediction accuracy and efficiency. EEG signals directly indicates the brain activity and these signals are rich and reliable source of data for capturing emotional states.

Purpose: The association of night eating (NE) and NE syndrome (NES) with dysfunctional eating behaviors, mental health and quality-of-life outcomes has been little explored in the general population. The objective of this study was to explore this for dysfunctional eating behaviors: binge-eating, use of purging, dietary restriction, use of medication to control weight; mental health: anxiety/depression; and quality-of-life outcomes: mental and physical health-related quality of life (M/PHRQoL). NE captured whether in the past 3 months, the respondents had any episodes of waking from sleep and eating, or episodes of eating a very large amount of food after evening meal excluding any such events at social gatherings or travelling overseas on a night flight or because of work shifts.
