An important threat to validity in personality research pertains an individual's motivation respond a socially desirable manner on self-report inventories. This issue was examined this study the context of narcissism, aggression, and prosocial behavior sample at-risk adolescents. Participants were 161 adolescents (128 males, 29 females, 4 not reported) ranging age from 16 19 years who attending residential program for youth have dropped out school. Overall, response tendencies negatively...
The UK Higher Education Institution (HEI) sector faces significant challenges in translating early-stage research into commercially viable public health products, particularly infectious diseases. This gap, often termed the “valley of death,” is exacerbated by a fragmented ecosystem and unclear pathways to implementation. FLIGHT (Framework for Leveraging Innovation Global Health Technologies) project aims address these enhancing commercialisation global from HEIs drive economic societal...
ABSTRACT Objective Long‐term recovery rates following eating disorders (EDs) treatment remain low. This might be partly due to a lack of agreement between key stakeholder groups, including people with lived experience, carers, clinicians, and researchers, regarding optimal therapeutic targets strategies. We aimed reach consensus across these diverse groups on the most valued strategies for fostering ED recovery. Method used Delphi method two phases: (i) Survey development (ii) Expert rating....
Deficits in executive function are common methamphetamine use disorder (MUD), likely contributing to difficulties sustained treatment success. Cognitive remediation interventions designed treat such deficits but have not been adapted the needs of people with MUD. This study presents a proof-of-concept trial evaluate new cognitive program for MUD, Goal Management Training+ (GMT+). was cluster-randomised crossover comparing GMT+ psychoeducation-based control (Brain Health Workshop; BHW). is...
Abstract Maximizing tendency has been associated with greater accumulation of choice alternatives prior to selection a preference. It is not known whether this search behavior extends situations in which new comes the potential loss existing ones. In Study 1, we replicate original finding alternatives, using computer‐based laboratory task. We then provide evidence, Studies 2 and 3, that when options incorporated into task, maximization less rather than more for additional options....
Methamphetamine use disorder (MUD) is associated with executive dysfunctions, which are linked poorer treatment outcomes including earlier drop out and relapse. However, current treatments for MUD do not address functions. Goal Management Training (GMT) an evidence-based cognitive remediation program dysfunction, although required modifications to enhance its relevance application within addiction settings. This study aimed (1) tailor GMT the key deficits typical duration of MUD; (2) explore...
Abstract. Research with adolescents has noted that narcissism dimensions (e.g., non-pathological, grandiose, vulnerable) are often interrelated but have differential associations indicators of adjustment. The aim the present study was to investigate both variable-centered and person-centered analyses commonly used scales in adolescents. Participants were 282 at-risk male ages 16–19 attending a voluntary residential program. Variable-centered revealed correlations for consistent prior...
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adults is strongly associated with psychiatric comorbidity and functional impairment. Here, we aimed to use a newly developed online cognitive battery strong psychometric properties for measuring individual differences three mechanisms proposed underlie ADHD traits adults: 1) attentional control - the ability mobilize resources stop prepotent motor response; 2) information sampling/gathering adequate sampling of stimulus detection task prior...
Abstract Purpose of Review Impulsivity is a core feature underpinning addictive disorders linked to difficulties achieving and sustaining treatment goals. Cognitive remediation promising adjunct intervention approach improve impulse control in disorders, although evidence still preliminary. This review summarizes available discusses opportunities enhance the development delivery future interventions. Recent Findings We identified six studies that delivered cognitive assessed state...
Background:: Cognitive disinhibition underpins alcohol and drug use problems. Although higher-risk substance is consistently associated with poorer disinhibition, current findings may be limited by narrow recruitment methods, which over-represent individuals engaged in traditional treatment services more severe presentations. We embedded a novel gamified task (the Impulsivity Suite; CIS) national online addiction support service (). Method:: Participants aged 18 to 64 ( = 137; 109 women)...
Abstract Background and Aims Substance use disorders (SUD) are associated with cognitive deficits that not always addressed in current treatments, this hampers recovery. Cognitive training remediation interventions well suited to fill the gap for managing SUD. We aimed reach consensus on recommendations developing applying these interventions. Design Delphi approach two sequential phases: survey development iterative surveying of experts. Setting Online study. Participants During...
Methamphetamine use disorder (MUD) is associated with executive dysfunctions, which are linked poorer treatment outcomes. However, current treatments for MUD do not directly address cognition. We recently modified Goal Management Training (now Training+; GMT+), a group-based intervention originally designed to improve functions after brain injury, enhance suitability MUD. Here, we describe the rationale and design of trial aims determine acceptability feasibility GMT+ during residential...
