Rumination, automatic thoughts, dysfunctional attitudes, and thought suppression as transdiagnostic factors in depression and anxiety

High comorbidity of anxiety and depression poses challenges to research and treatment in clinical settings. The current study was set out to investigate whether respondents can be separated into discrete depressive and anxious subgroups or reveal a continuous distribution throughout the population based on the symptoms of depression and anxiety. In addition, we also explored the role of rumination, automatic thoughts, dysfunctional attitudes, and thought suppression as transdiagnostic factors. Psychometric instruments including Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire (ATQ), Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale-Revised (DAS-R), Ruminative Response Scale – Short Form (RRS-SF), and White Bear Suppression Inventory (WBSI) were completed by 310 undergraduates. Item responses to the BDI and BAI were subjected to latent class analysis (LCA). The LCA showed that three homogenous subgroups exist: normal, subclinical, and psychopathology latent classes. Findings supported the dimensional model rather than the categorical distinction between anxiety and depression. Strong covariances between anxious and depressive symptoms across latent subgroups were observed. Having controlled for age and gender, automatic thoughts, dysfunctional thinking, rumination, and thought suppression were all found significant transdiagnostic factors. Anxiety and depression, as frequently co-occurring clinical conditions, can be best understood in a continuum rather than taxonomic classifications. Individuals more prone to use maladaptive cognitive emotional regulation strategies seem to be at greater risk of psychopathology. © 2020, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature

Poliüre-poliamin reçinesi kullanılarak atıksulardaki ağır metal kirliliğinin adsorpsiyonla gideriminin incelenmesi

06.03.2018 tarihli ve 30352 sayılı Resmi Gazetede yayımlanan “Yükseköğretim Kanunu İle Bazı Kanun Ve Kanun Hükmünde Kararnamelerde Değişiklik Yapılması Hakkında Kanun” ile 18.06.2018 tarihli “Lisansüstü Tezlerin Elektronik Ortamda Toplanması, Düzenlenmesi ve Erişime Açılmasına İlişkin Yönerge” gereğince tam metin erişime açılmıştır.Bu çalışmada, otomotiv ve diğer metal işleme sanayi atıksularında bulunabilen ve doğada tehdit oluşturan altı farklı ağır metalin poliüre-poliamin reçineleri kullanılarak adsorpsiyonla giderimi araştırılmış, adsorpsiyon izotermleri ve kinetikleri incelenmiştir. Ayrıca reçinelerin otomotiv fabrikasından alınan arıtma girişi atıksuyunda ağır metallerin giderimi için kullanımı incelenmiştir.Toluen diizosiyanatın (TDI) tetraetilen triamin (TETA) ve pentaetilen hegzaamin (PEHA) ile ayrı ayrı reaksiyonundan reçineler sentezlenmiş ve bu reçinelerin karakterizasyonu için elementel analizleri ve Fourier Transform Infrared spektroskopileri yapılmıştır.Kesikli çalışmalarda, adsorpsiyona pH, adsorban dozu, karıştırma süresi ve metal başlangıç konsantrasyonu etkisi incelenmiş, adsorpsiyon sonuçları Langmiur ve Freundlich izoterm ve Pseudo 1. derece ve Pseudo 2. derece kinetik eşitliklerine uygulanmıştır.Langmiur adsorpsiyon izotermlerinden elde edilen maksimum adsorpsiyon kapasiteleri, TETA ve PEHA için sırasıyla Cu(II) için 52,356 ve 55,555, Cr(III) için 47,847 ve 47,847, Cr(VI) için 40,486 ve 46,083, Cd(II) için 7,305 ve 16,234, Ni(II) için 4,112 ve 7,441, Zn(II) için 16,778 ve 20,883 mg/g bulunmuştur.İzoterm ve kinetik incelemeleri sonucunda her iki reçine ile adsorpsiyonun kemisorpsiyonu açıklayan tek tabakalı adsorpsiyon modeli Langmiur eşitliğine ve Pseudo 2. derece eşitliğine uygunluğu saptanmıştır.Adsorpsiyon verimlerinin, karma sentetik numunelerle yapılan çalışmalarda, tekli metal iyonu adsorpsiyonlarına göre diğer iyonların varlığında bir miktar azaldığı tespit edilmiştir.Endüstriyel atıksulara uygulamada Hyundai Assan'dan alınan atıksuda bulunan T.Cr, Ni(II) ve Zn(II) iyonlarının TETA ve PEHA reçineleriyle gideriminde sırasıyla T.Cr için, %75,86 ve %68,96, Ni(II) için %98,34 ve 86,10, Zn(II) için %98,62 ve %98,77 adsorpsiyon verimleri elde edilmiştir.In this study, the uptake of six different heavy metals that can be detected in automotive and metallic industry by adsorption using polyurea-polyamine resins, adsorption isotherms and kinetics were investigated. Also the resins were used to remove heavy metals from the automotive industry wastewaters.The resins were synthesized from reaction of toluen diisocyanate with trieetilene tetraamine (TETA) and pentaetilene hegzaamine (PEHA). The products were characterized by using FT-IR and elemental analysis.By using batch method, the effect of pH, adsorbent dose, contact time and initial concentration are investigated on adsorption. Adsorption results are applied to Langmiur and Freundlich isotherm equations and Pseudo-first-order and Pseudo-second-order kinetic models.Maksimum adsorption capacities of TETA and PEHA from Langmiur isotherms are 52.356 and 55.555 for Cu(II), 47.847 and 47.847 for Cr(III), 40.486 and 46.083 for Cr(VI), 7.503 and 16.234 for Cd(II), 4.112 and 7.441 for Ni(II), 16.778 and 20.883 mg/g for Zn(II), respectively.As results of isotherm and kinetic investigations, the adsorption by both resins are fitted well to Langmiur isotherm adsorption and Pseudo second order kinetic model which describes chemisorptions.The adsorption studies of the mixed synthetic samples showed that the adsorption decreased a little in the presence of other ions.The adsorption of the heavy metal ions from the wastewater obtained from Hyundai- Assan Factory by TETA and PEHA resins are 75.86% and 68.96% for total chromium, 98.34% and 86.10% for nickel, 98.62% and 98.77% for zinc, respectively

Attachment theory and therapeutic relationships

The aims of this study were to examine the associations between current self-reported attachment styles, retrospective reports of childhood experiences, and the development of the therapeutic alliance. It was hypothesised that anxious and avoidant attachment would be correlated with negative childhood experiences and that both attachment anxiety and avoidance would be inversely correlated with the therapeutic alliance. The third hypothesis stated that negative childhood recollections would correlate inversely with the quality of the therapeutic alliance and that this association would be mediated by adult attachment styles. One hundred adult counselling/psychotherapy clients referred for psychological therapy in primary care were asked to complete the Childhood Experiences Survey (Meyer, 2005) as a measure of retrospective childhood experiences, the Experiences in Close Relationships Scale (Brennan, Clark, & Shaver, 1998) as a measure of adult attachment styles and the Working Alliance Inventory (WAI) (Horvath & Greenberg, 1989) as a measure of working alliance. The first hypothesis which stipulated that negative childhood experiences would be correlated with anxious and avoidant attachment style was partially supported. Avoidant attachment style but not anxious attachment style was significantly and moderately strongly associated with rejection experiences as measured by the CES. The second hypothesis, which stated that both anxious and avoidant attachment would be correlated with the therapeutic alliance, was also partially supported. Avoidant attachment but not anxious attachment correlated significantly and inversely, moderately strongly with the therapeutic alliance. The third hypothesis stated that the relationship between childhood experiences recollections and the alliance would be mediated by both attachment anxiety and avoidance. The third hypothesis could not be explored further as childhood experiences did not correlate significantly with the therapeutic alliance. Findings and implications for further research are discussed

dissociative Experiences are Associated with Obsessive-Compulsive Symptoms in a Non-clinical Sample: A latent Profile Analysis disosiyatif Yaşantılar Klinik Olmayan Örneklemde Obsesif-Kompulsif Belirtilerle İlişkilidir: Gizil Profil Analiziyle Bir İncelem

Arc hi ves of Neu ropsy chi atry 2014; 51: 253-262 Nö rop si ki yat ri Ar fli vi 2014; 51: 253-262 ÖZET Giriş: Obsesif-kompulsif belirtiler ve disosiyatif yaşantılar arasındaki manidar ilişkilere dair çalışmaların sayısı artmaktadır. Bu araştırmada üniversite öğrencilerinden oluşan bir Türk örnekleminde disosiyatif semptomotoloji ve obsesif-kompulsif belirtilerin alt boyutları arasındaki ilişkiler gizil sınıf analizi kullanılarak elde edilen homojen alt gruplarda incelenmiştir. Yön tem : 2976 üniversite öğrencisinden elde edilen Disosiyatif Yaşantılar Ölçeği (DYÖ) maddelerinden oluşan veriye, gizil sınıf analizine dayalı son zamanlarda geliştirilen bir sınıflama yöntemi olarak gizil profil analizi uygulanmıştır. Obsesif-kompulsif belirtiler, anksiyete ve depresyon şiddeti bakımından gruplar arası farklar multinomial regresyon analizleriyle değerlendirilmiştir. Gizil sınıf olasılıklarının obsesif-kompulsif alt ölçekleri, anksiyete ve depresyonla olan ilişkisi Pearson momentler çarpımı korelasyon katsayıları hesaplanarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bul gu lar: Gizil profil analizi sonuçları disosiyasyon kavramına ilişkin süreksizlik modellerini destekleyici ek kanıtlar sunmuştur. DYÖ maddelerine göre yapılan analiz sonucunda üç alt grup arasında önemli farklılıklar olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Örneklemin önemli bir yüzdesi (%42) yüksek disosiyatif özellik gösteren sınıf içinde kümelenmiştir. Sonraki analizlerde obsesifkompulsif belirtilerin gizil sınıflar arasında manidar düzeyde farklılaştığı görülmüştür. Obsessif-kompulsif belirtiler ve disosiyatif semptomotoloji arasındaki ilişkiler ele alındığında, düşük disosiyasyon düzeylerinin obsesif-kompulsif belirtilerle başa çıkmada tampon işlevi gördüğü halde yüksek disosiyasyonun artmış obsesif-kompulsif belirtilerle ilişkili olduğu gözlenmiştir. So nuç: Araştırma sonucunda disosiyasyon kavramının en iyi tipolojik bir yaklaşım içinde açıklanabileceği, disosiyatif semptomotolojinin obsesifkompulsif belirtilerdeki artışa neden olurken uyuma yönelik bir başa çıkma stratejisi olarak da işlev gördüğü sonucuna varılmıştır. ABS TRACT introduction: There has been a burgeoning literature considering the significant associations between obsessive-compulsive symptoms and dissociative experiences. In this study, the relationsips between dissociative symtomotology and dimensions of obsessive-compulsive symptoms were examined in homogeneous sub-groups obtained with latent class algorithm in an undergraduate Turkish sample. Met hod: Latent profile analysis, a recently developed classification method based on latent class analysis, was applied to the Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES) item-response data from 2976 undergraduates. Differences in severity of obsessivecompulsive symptoms, anxiety and depression across groups were evaluated by running multinomial logistic regression analyses. Associations between latent class probabilities and psychological variables in terms of obsessive-compulsive subtypes, anxiety, and depression were assessed by computing Pearson's productmoment correlation coefficients. Re sults: The findings of the latent profile analysis supported further evidence for discontinuity model of dissociative experiences. The analysis empirically justified the distinction among three sub-groups based on the DES items. A marked proportion of the sample (42%) was assigned to the high dissociative class. In the further analyses, all sub-types of obsessive-compulsive symptoms significantly differed across latent classes. Regarding the relationships between obsessivecompulsive symptoms and dissociative symptomatology, low dissociation appeared to be a buffering factor dealing with obsessive-compulsive symptoms; whereas high dissociation appeared to be significantly associated with high levels of obsessivecompulsive symptoms. Conc lu si on: It is concluded that the concept of dissociation can be best understood in a typological approach that dissociative symptomatology not only exacerbates obsessive-compulsive symptoms but also serves as an adaptive coping mechanism.

Development of a Psychometric Instrument Based on the Inference- Based Approach to Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: The Obsessional Probabilistic Inference Scale

ABSTRACT Introduction: The current article addresses the validation of the construct of obsessional probabilistic inference in clinical and non-clinical samples. Obsessional probabilistic inference or obsessional doubt refers to a type of inferential process resulting in the belief that a state of affairs "maybe" causes development of a maladaptive cognitive coping style in terms of obsessing
