Background Self-harm is a common reason for Emergency Department (ED) attendance. We aimed to develop clinical tool help identify patients at higher risk of repeat self-harm, or suicide, within 6 months an ED self-harm presentation. Method The tool, the ReACT Self-Harm Rule, was derived using multicentre data from prospective cohort study. Binary recursive partitioning applied two centres, and separate centre were used test tool. There 29 571 presentations five hospital EDs between January...
Study preregistration has become increasingly popular in psychology, but its effectiveness restricting potentially biasing researcher degrees of freedom remains unclear. We used an extensive protocol to assess the strictness preregistrations and consistency between publications 300 preregistered psychology studies. found that often lack methodological details undisclosed deviations from plans are frequent. Combining results highlights biases due prevalent likely many More comprehensive...
Intuition often guides our thinking effectively, but it can also lead to consequential reasoning errors, underpinning poor decisions and biased judgments. Little is known about how people globally self-correct such intuitive errors what enhances their correction. Defying prevailing models of reasoning, recent research suggests that spontaneously correct only a few during deliberation; however, enhancing error monitoring motivating further effort should increase Here, we study whether these...
Aims: Much research has begun to focus on the identification of people who are at high risk developing psychosis, and clinical services have been initiated for this population. However, only a small number studies reported efficacy interventions preventing or delaying onset psychosis. The results prior work suggest that cognitive therapy (CT) may be an effective, well-tolerated treatment. We report rationale design large-scale, multi-site randomized, controlled trial CT assessed psychosis...
Indigenous health research should reflect the needs and benefits of participants their community as well academic practitioner interests. The relationship can be viewed co-constructed by researchers, participants, communities, but this nature often goes unrecognized because it is confined limits Western epistemology. Dominant knowledge systems assume an objective reality or truth that does not support multiple subjective realities, especially in which culture context important, such ways...
Although worry is a normal cognitive process experienced by adolescents, for significant number, it can reach intense and uncontrollable levels. If left untreated, these worries lead to mental health problems that are maintained into adulthood. Adolescents with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) may be more prone biases (that precede worry) therefore highly vulnerable worry. Limited research has examined in adolescents NDDs; however, most studies have focused on measuring anxiety. The...
Open science remains vital to the progress and functioning of global research enterprise.

It has been widely used adopted by publishers academic journals, but despite its uptake, concerns have raised about aspects TOP 2015 implementation. In response above, purpose this manuscript is introduce an official update Guidelines. The...
Objective: This study sought to evaluate the effectiveness of a serious game, that embeds cognitive bias modification for interpretation (CBM-I), in altering negative interpretive early aged adolescents diagnosed with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Autism Spectrum and Specific Learning Disorders. The difficulties neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) experience navigating social nuances everyday environments make them prone biases lead development thought patterns. Directly tackling...
The accessibility of training and fidelity assessment is critical to implementing sustaining empirically supported psychotherapies like cognitive behavioral therapy for psychosis (CBTp).

Abstract Aims To investigate the relationship between internalized stigma, depression, social anxiety and unusual experiences in young people considered to be at risk of developing psychosis.

The sample was assessed baseline 6 months using measures states, depression anxiety. Results Personal Beliefs about...
Sleep disturbance is common among individuals at risk of psychosis, yet few studies have investigated the relationship between sleep and clinical trajectory. The Early Detection Intervention Evaluation (EDIE-2) trial provides longitudinal data on duration individual psychotic experiences from a cohort which this study utilises in an opportunistic secondary analysis. Shorter more variable was hypothesised to be associated with severe lower psychological wellbeing. Mixed effect models were...
Ideal partner preferences (i.e., ratings of the desirability attributes like attractiveness or intelligence) are source numerous foundational findings in interdisciplinary literature on human mating. Recently, research predictive validity ideal preference matching Do people positively evaluate partners who match vs. mismatch their ideals?) has become mired several problems. First, articles exhibit discrepant analytic and reporting practices. Second, different emerge across laboratories...

Abstract Objectives: The vast majority of cochlear implant recipients realize significant improvement in speech perception. However, there continue to be a small group that does not such benefit. In an effort identify possible predictors for this, we have compared pre‐ and postimplant audiologic data using Hearing Noise Test (HINT), City University New York (CUNY), or Central Institute the Deaf (CID) scores 445 consecutive English‐speaking adult patients followed minimum 1 year...
Abstract Objectives/Hypothesis: Evaluate the characteristics and outcomes of patients with autoimmune inner ear disease (AIED) who have undergone cochlear implantation (CI) compare post‐CI performance in AIED to matched controls. Study Design: Retrospective case control study. Methods: cohort was comprised 25 adult implantees (AIED [n = 18], Cogan syndrome 7]). The group defined by rapidly progressive bilateral sensorineural hearing loss leading unusable within weeks months. Patients...
