Studies have shown that certain Internet interventions can help alleviate depression. However, many such contain personal support elements, making it difficult to ascertain whether the program or drives effects. are needed investigate contribute symptom reduction even when they delivered without support, and among severely depressed individuals who often receive other forms of treatment. This randomized controlled trial aimed examine effect an intervention was deployed ("Deprexis") adults...
Little is known about how women with borderline personality disorder (BPD) and social phobia react to mental illness stigma.

Self-stigma related constructs were measured by self-report questionnaires among 60 BPD 30 phobia. inversely self-esteem, self-efficacy, quality life predicted low self-esteem after controlling for depression shame-proneness.

<h3>Importance</h3> Schema therapy (ST), delivered either in an individual or group format, has been compared with other active treatments for borderline personality disorder (BPD). To our knowledge, the 2 formats have not treatment as usual (TAU) each other. Such comparisons help determine best practices. <h3>Objective</h3> evaluate whether ST is more effectively a predominantly combined and format effective than optimal TAU BPD. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> In this multicenter,...
Impulsivity is a core feature of borderline personality disorder (BPD). However, previous clinical and experimental studies investigating impulsivity in BPD rendered mixed results. In this study, was assessed by self-report scales behavioral inhibition tasks to compare different data levels.Fifteen women with 15 matched healthy control subjects (HC) completed the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale, Eysenck's Questionnaire UPPS (Urgency, Lack Perseverance, Premeditation Sensation Seeking) scale,...
To date, the psychometric properties of German version Young Schema Questionnaire – Short Form 3 (YSQ-S3) have not yet been examined. We investigated reliability and validity YSQ-S3. In a community sample 1,150 participants clinical 30 psychiatric inpatients, we performed analysis, confirmatory factor correlation analyses, tested for group differences using analysis variance. The YSQ-S3 proved to be reliable corresponded theoretically proposed 18-dimensional structure. scores were positively...
Objectives. Affective dysregulation is a clinical hallmark of borderline personality disorder (BPD). This study used an instructed fear task combined with functional MRI (fMRI) and skin conductance response (SCR) to test hypotheses about mechanisms disturbed fronto-limbic neural circuitry underlying dysfunctional emotional processing in BPD. Methods. Female BPD patients matched control subjects were exposed two visual stimuli during fMRI scanning SCR recording. Subjects shortly before that...
Both emotion regulation and impulsivity are core aspects of borderline personality disorder (BPD) pathology. Although both problems may be combined specifically in BPD, few studies to date have investigated the emotional modulation BPD.Women with BPD matched healthy controls performed go/no-go tasks after induction anger, joy or a neutral mood by vocally presented short stories. Dependent variables were behavioural results functional magnetic resonance imaging data.We included 17 women 18...
Emotion instability in borderline personality disorder (BPD) has been associated with an impaired fronto-limbic inhibitory network. However, functional connectivity (FC) underlying altered emotion regulation BPD yet to be established. Here, we used resting-state fMRI investigate enduring effects of effortful on the amygdala intrinsic FC BPD. In this multicenter study, was acquired before and after task 48 patients 39 non-patient comparison individuals. The bilateral amygdalae were as a seed...
Fewer than 25% of patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) receive guideline-adherent psychotherapy. Digital therapeutics can help reduce this gap. Therefore, we tested the effectiveness and safety priovi, a digital therapeutic for BPD. We conducted pragmatic, assessor-blind, parallel-group, randomised controlled trial, recruiting BPD, according to DSM-5 classification, at least moderate severity on 23-item Borderline Symptom List (BSL-23) via online advertisements in Germany....

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a severe and highly prevalent mental disorder. Schema therapy (ST) has been found effective in the treatment of BPD commonly delivered through an individual format. A group format (group schema therapy, GST) also developed. GST to speed up amplify effects for ST. Delivery may lead improved cost-effectiveness. An important question how compares as usual (TAU) what delivery (format A; intensive only, or B; combination therapy) produces best outcomes.An...
