The current study evaluates the shared cognitive factors underlying writing and math performance, both timed (e.

Cognitive performance is associated with return to work after ischemic stroke in young adults: The ODYSSEY study.

Introduction: Limited data exist on cognitive performance and return to work after ischemic stroke, especially in patients under 50 years. We investigated whether cognitive performance in the subacute phase after ischemic stroke in young adults was associated with unemployment and the inability to retain their jobs among those who returned to work.

Patients And Methods: We conducted a multicenter prospective cohort study between 2013 and 2021, enrolling patients aged 18-49 years with first-ever ischemic stroke.

Transaction between impulsivity and family conflict among children: An empirical examination of the biosocial model of emotion regulation.

Difficulty with emotion regulation is a transdiagnostic problem associated with a variety of psychological disorders. The biosocial model suggests that early biological vulnerability, including impulsivity, may potentiate across development by transacting with environmental risk factors leading to the development of emotional dysregulation. During transition from late childhood to early adolescence, family may be a prominent source of environmental influences.

Characterising symptomatic substates in individuals on the psychosis continuum: a hidden Markov modelling approach.

Background: To improve early intervention and personalise treatment for individuals early on the psychosis continuum, a greater understanding of symptom dynamics is required. We address this by identifying and evaluating the movement between empirically derived attenuated psychotic symptomatic substates-clusters of symptoms that occur within individuals over time.

Methods: Data came from a 90-day daily diary study evaluating attenuated psychotic and affective symptoms.

Treating Situational Couple Aggression: An Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy Approach.

Situational couple aggression is common; most couples who seek conjoint treatment report at least some instances of aggression. Modern couple therapy research provides support for the safe and effective use of conjoint treatment with situationally aggressive couples; however, many clinicians feel ill equipped to assess and treat aggression via relational therapy. We propose that integrative behavioral couple therapy (IBCT) offers a uniquely suited lens for working with couples who participate in situational aggression.

Stressful Life Events and Neuroticism among Chinese Women with Recurrent Major Depressive Disorder.

Background: Depression is associated with a high incidence of stressful life events (SLEs) and neuroticism. However, the impact of SLEs and neuroticism on the recurrence of major depressive disorder (MDD) remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to identify the potential causal relationship between SLEs, neuroticism, and depression recurrence.

The Relationship between Self-objectification and Adolescent Appearance Anxiety: A Mediated Model with Moderation.

Background: The physical appearances of an individual are frequently scrutinized and evaluated by others in daily life. The rise of social media has intensified this scrutiny, leading to increased attention to and comparison of the appearance of an individual with others, leading to psychological challenges such as appearance anxiety.
