Depression is common among patients with breast cancer (BC) and their spouses. The diagnosis of BC often results in negative cognitive processes, such as appraisals of harm/loss, intrusive thoughts, and depressive rumination, all of which contribute to the occurrence of depression in both the patient and spouse. The present research is a cross-sectional exploration of the mediating role of depr...

Intrusive recollections are very common immediately after traumatic events and are considered necessary aspects of emotional processing. However, if these intrusive recollections persist over a long time, they are linked to long-term psychiatric disorder, especially Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This paper discusses the need to investigate factors involved in the maintenance of intrusiv...

The aim of this thesis is to better support the design and evaluation of ambient displays. The major difficulty is how to evaluate them. For the furtherance of this aim, seven specific questions are raised. The answers to these seven specific questions are based on the four case studies and the relevant literature. In this thesis, first we systematically divide the evaluation of ambient display...

Unwanted intrusive thoughts play an integral role in a number of different disorders including obsessive-compulsive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder and substance use and abuse disorders. The objectives of this study were twofold. First, we examined intrusive thoughts and impulses in a student and incarcerated sample. Second, in an effort to better understand the non-universality of the ...

Recent evidence suggests that an interaction of noradrenaline (NE) and cortisol (CORT) during encoding leads to greater consolidation of emotional memories. Convergent models of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) suggest the release of CORT and NE lead to greater intrusive memories in PTSD. This study examined the effect of NE and CORT during encoding on recall and intrusive memories in PTSD....

Increased understanding of the nature and role of intrusive imagery has contributed to the development of effective treatment protocols for some anxiety disorders. However, intrusive imagery in severe health anxiety (hypochondriasis) has been comparatively neglected. Hence, the current study investigates the prevalence, nature and content of intrusive imagery in 55 patients who met DSM-IV-TR (A...

intrusive luxation is the most severe type of dental injury with a complex healing sequence. pulp necrosis, root resorption (surface, inflammatory and replacement resorption), and defects in marginal periodontal bone healing are the main complications. treatment strategies can be either active, by repositioning (surgical or orthodontic extrusion), or passive, by spontaneous re‑eruption based on...

OBJECTIVE Psychological morbidity, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), is common in survivors of intensive care. Intrusive memories of trauma are important symptoms of PTSD. Research has not established which aspects of intensive care are most traumatizing; invasive medical procedures, fear of dying from life-threatening illness or injury, or effects of psychoactive drugs, includin...
