Background: Mobile apps for mental health have the potential to overcome access barriers care, but there is little information on whether patients use interventions as intended and impact they outcomes. Objective: The objective of our study was document compare patterns clinical outcomes across United States between 3 different self-guided mobile depression. Methods: Participants were recruited through Web-based advertisements social media randomly assigned 1 mood apps. Treatment assessment...

Advances in mobile technology have resulted federal and industry-level initiatives to facilitate large-scale clinical research using smart devices. Although the benefits of expand data collection are obvious, assumptions about reach methods (access), participant willingness engage protocols (engagement), cost this (cost) remain untested.To assess feasibility a fully randomised controlled trial assessments treatments delivered entirely through devices depressed individuals.Using web-based...

Abstract Background Much of suicide research focuses on attempt (SA) survivors. Given that more than half the decedent population dies their first attempt, this means a significant proportion by is overlooked in research. Little known about persons who die attempt–and characterizing understudied may improve efforts to identify individuals at risk for suicide. Methods Data were derived from National Violent Death Reporting System, 2005 2013. Suicide cases included if they 18–89 years old,...

There is an elevated risk for suicide in the year following psychiatric hospitalization. The present study examined whether perceived coercion during admission into hospitalization increases postdischarge attempts.Participants were 905 inpatients from MacArthur Violence Risk Assessment Study that assessed every 10 weeks discharge. Perceived was while hospitalized, and attempts Analyses adjusted nonrandom assignment of groups via propensity score weighting established correlates suicidal...

Social cognition (SC), the mental operations underlying social functioning, are impaired in schizophrenia. Their direct link to functional outcome and illness status have made them an important therapeutic target. However, no effective treatment for these deficits is currently applied as a standard of care. To address this need, we developed SocialVille-an online, plasticity-based training program that targets SC Here report outcomes double-blind, controlled, randomized, multi-site clinical...

Purpose Human resource management professionals strive to establish a high person–organization (PO) fit when hiring, as doing so ultimately reduces turnover and increases employee performance outcomes. However, tailored strategies toward improving the PO of military veterans have yet be explored – particularly concerning oversight considering prevalence veteran hiring initiatives correspondingly rates former servicemembers in their first nonmilitary jobs. This paper aims explore model’s...

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with mild neurocognitive deficits, yet clients often complain of cognitive problems that exceed what their objective performance demonstrates. In addition, PTSD negative appraisals about the self, traumatic event, and one's ability to cope. This study examined posttraumatic cognitions as a moderator, trauma coping self-efficacy mediator, relationship between symptoms self-report problems. A sample 268 trauma-exposed adults completed...

Abstract Children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder show deficits in processing speed, as well aberrant neural oscillations, including both periodic (oscillatory) and aperiodic (1/f-like) activity, reflecting the pattern of power across frequencies. Both components were suggested underlying mechanisms cognitive dysfunctions disorder. Here, we examined differences speed resting-state-Electroencephalogram oscillations their associations between 6- 12-year-old children (n = 33)...

Abstract Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has been consistently linked to poorer functional outcomes, including quality of life, health problems, and social occupational functioning. Less is known about the potential mechanisms by which PTSD leads outcomes. We hypothesized that neurocognitive functioning perception cognitive problems would both mediate relationship between diagnosis In a sample 140 veterans recent wars conflicts in Iraq Afghanistan, we assessed symptoms, history...

Abstract In this paper, we present our novel autonomous surface vessel platform, a full‐scale Roboat for urban transportation. This 4‐m‐long is designed with six seats and can carry payload of up to 1000 kg. has two main thrusters cruising tunnel accommodate docking interconnectivity between Roboats. We build an adaptive nonlinear model predictive controller trajectory tracking account changes while transporting passengers. use sparse directed graph represent the canal topological map then...

Psychological resilience, the ability to adapt adversity, is theorized rely on intact inhibitory control (IC) mechanisms, which underlie one's maintain goal-directed behavior by inhibiting prepotent responses. However, no study date has explored daily fluctuations of IC performance in relation resilience. Here, we examined association between and mood measured psychological resilience young adults a stressful situation. Baseline was obtained from 144 female male soldiers during their basic...

According to the interpersonal theory of suicide (Joiner, 2005), repeated exposure painful or provocative experiences is associated with lethal nearly attempts. However, research often focuses on ideation attempts, rather than intent. Using data from Collaborative Psychiatric Epidemiological Surveys, we examined traumatic experiences, a focus traumas, in individuals who described their attempts as strong intent die versus cry for help. Only acts committing violence were high intent,...

Inhibitory control underlies one's ability to maintain goal-directed behavior by inhibiting prepotent responses or ignoring irrelevant information. Recent models suggest that impaired inhibition of negative information may contribute depressive symptoms, and this association is mediated rumination. However, the exact nature association, particularly in non-clinical samples, unclear. The current study assessed relationship between inhibitory over emotional vs. non-emotional information,...

Patients with Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders (SSD) demonstrate poor social functioning. While group-based approaches show long-term improvements, access to treatments is limited. Digital platforms hold promise overcome barriers treatment delivery and improve outcomes.In a parallel arm, double-blind RCT, we tested CLIMB, clinician-assisted, adjunct that includes computerized cognition training (SCT), ecological momentary assessments (EMAs), group tele-therapy, moderated messaging. CLIMB was...

This study explored risk and resilience factors of mental health functioning during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic.A sample 467 adults (M age = 33.14, 63.6% female) reported on (depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress disorder [PTSD], somatic symptoms), demands impacts COVID-19, resources (e.g., social support, care access), demographics, psychosocial factors.Depression, PTSD rates were 44%, 36%, 23%, respectively. Supervised machine learning models identified as primary...

Objective The Interpersonal Theory of Suicide ( IPTS ; Joiner, 2005. Why People Die by . Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press) hypothesizes that repeated exposure to painful and provocative events PPE ) increases capability for suicide CS ), therefore facilitating the development suicidal intent, impulsive individuals are more likely experience these events, creating an indirect relationship between impulsivity Research date largely supports this hypothesis but has not translated theory...

Homicide-suicide is an extremely heterogeneous and rare form of lethal violence. In effort to capture this heterogeneity enhance research prevention efforts, typologies have been developed from literature reviews or geographically limited samples. The purpose the present study was develop first empirically derived typology homicide-suicide decedents, using a large, diverse sample.Data were used Centers for Disease Control Prevention's National Violent Death Reporting System 2003 2015 across...

Objective: In recognition of the mixed associations between traditionally scored slow wave sleep and memory, we sought to explore relationships sleep, electroencephalographic (EEG) power spectra during overnight verbal memory retention in older adults. Design, Setting, Participants, Measurements: Participants were 101 adults without dementia (52% female, mean age 70.3 years). Delayed was first tested evening prior polysomnography (PSG). The following morning, subjects asked recall as many...
