Online neurocognitive remediation therapy to improve cognition in community-living individuals with a history of depression: A pilot study
Major depression is a highly prevalent psychopathology with high relapse rates. Following remission from a depressive episode, neurocognitive difficulties in attention, working memory and executive function often persist, preventing full clinical recovery. These neurocognitive deficits are often present since the first depressive episode and have been shown to predict relapse. The efficacy of computerised neurocognitive remediation therapy (NCRT) to improve attention, memory and executive function has been demonstrated in several clinical populations but randomised controlled trials (RCT) have not been conducted in depression. The present study aimed to conduct a pilot, randomised study, of computerised NCRT for individuals with past depression, currently in remission. Twenty two individuals remitted from depression were randomly assigned to receive 20 one-hour sessions over 5 week of ether computerised NCRT or a component-equivalent allocation (play online computer games). The NCRT group showed significantly larger improvements in performance relative to the Games group in the three targeted neurocognitive domains: divided attention, verbal working memory, and planning, but also in non-targeted domains of long-term verbal memory and switching abilities. No significant effect was observed in the NCRT-targeted domain visual working memory. These preliminary results suggest computerised NCRT efficacy to improve targeted neurocognitive processes during depression remission and support its potential value as preventative connected intervention tool
"Eu queria que os meus livros também saíssem do armário": o avanço da literatura lésbica no mercado editorial, a partir do engajamento on-line das obras de Elayne Baeta
Este trabalho tem como objetivo investigar os impactos provocados pelas obras da
autora brasileira Elayne Baeta e por seu fandom sobre o crescimento da literatura
lésbica no mercado editorial tradicional. A partir da análise de materiais veiculados on-
line pela escritora e por suas fãs ou a respeito dessas, bem como de entrevistas com o
grupo em questão, refletem-se as redes de sociabilidade e as atuações de Baeta e seu
fandom. Para a sua efetiva construção, são também abordadas nessa pesquisa a
historiografia do livro, o desenvolvimento do cânone literário, a relação das mulheres e
da literatura e o poder da literatura lésbica.The present work aims to investigate the impacts caused by Brazilian author Elayne
Baeta's literary work and its fandom over the growth of lesbian literature in the traditional
Publishing Industry. From the analysis of on-line material broadcast by the writer and
her fans, or about the fans, as of interviews with the mentioned group, Baeta and her
fandom’s social relationships and actions are reflected. For its effective making, it is also
approached the book’s historiography, the development of the literary canon, the
relationship between women and literature, and the power of lesbian literature.53 p
The association between cognitive deficits, psychosocial functioning, and relapse following remission from major depressive disorder: A systematic review
The aim of this systematic review is to examine the association between cognitive deficits during remission from major depressive, psychosocial dysfunction, and subsequent relapse/ recurrence
Self‐efficacy, sympathy, and attributions: Understanding helping intentions towards disclosers of mental health concerns on social media
Mental health disclosures increasingly occur on online platforms. In a moderated‐ mediation analysis, we assessed an adapted Corrigan's attribution model (2003) including factors such as the sincerity of online disclosure and support self‐efficacy to predict helping intentions on social media. Participants (N = 177) were randomly allocated to one of three conditions and presented with a social media vignette experimentally manipulating controllability attributions (low, high, neutral controlla?bility). Participants completed controllability, sincerity, sympathy, self‐efficacy, and helping intentions questionnaires. While preliminary exploratory analyses revealed that the proposed model significantly explained helping intentions, the proposed mechanisms of serial‐mediation via sincerity of disclosure and sympathy was not supported, nor was this dependent on self‐efficacy. Nonetheless, sympathy and self‐ efficacy uniquely and significantly explained helping intentions. Thus, an intervention that upskills individuals in online support provision offers promise in terms of accessible, online, community‐based treatment initiatives. </p

Neuropsychological rehabilitation interventions for people with an acquired brain injury and their caregivers. A protocol for a systematic review of economic evaluation [Elektronisk resurs]
Background: New emerging evidence has demonstrated the need for effective interventions to help people living with an acquired brain injury (ABI). Evidence on cost-effectiveness, which can help inform use of limited resources, is scarce in this area and therefore the purpose of this systematic review is to critically appraise and consolidate the current evidence on economic evaluations of ABI rehabilitation interventions. Methods: Systematic review methodology will be applied to identify, select and extract data from published economic evaluation studies (trial-based, non-trial based, simulation-based, decision model and trial-based model economic evaluations) of ABI treatment interventions in adults. A systematic literature search will be conducted on the following electronic databases: EMBASE, Econlit, CINAHL, Medline, Econlit, the National Health Service Economic Evaluation Database and PsyclNFO. This review will only include cost-effectiveness analysis studies (e.g., cost per life year gained), cost-benefit and cost minimisation analyses in which the designs were randomised controlled trials (RCTs), non-RCT studies, cost-utility analyses (e.g., cost per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) gained or cost per disability-adjusted life year averted), cohort studies, and modeling studies. Only studies that were published in English, associated with adults who have an ABI will be included. There will be no restrictions on perspective, sample size, country, follow-up duration or setting. The search strategy terms will include the following: acquired brain injury, brain*; cost*; or cost–benefit analysis*. Following data extraction, a narrative summary and tables will be used to summarize the characteristics and results of included studies. Discussion: The findings from this review will be beneficial to health policy decision makers when examining the evidence of economic evaluations in this field. In addition, it is anticipated that this review will identify gaps in the current economic literature to inform future-related research

When Worldviews Collide—Strategic Advocacy v. a Mediator’s Ethical Obligations
(Excerpt)
The provocative headline “Judge Orders Preservation of Mediation Notes In Gender Bias Suit Against Proskauer” sparks the topic of this Ethical Compass discussion. What should be done when a lawyer’s litigation strategy collides with a mediator’s ethical standards of practice? There is growing concern by dispute professionals, including this author, that this collision is diluting the benefits of mediation and re-shaping mediation into quasi-adjudicative dispute resolution procedure. Others hear this as a clarion call from litigators to the mediation community to realize that mediation ideals are just that, and will not deflate litigation advocacy strategies. These polarized perspectives present an opportunity for dispute resolution professionals to pause and rethink what the dispute resolution professional might do to realistically align litigator’s interests with mediator ethics. This is a particularly timely discussion as the ABA Section of Dispute Resolution Ethics Committee and Committee on Mediation Guidance consider revisions to the 2005 Model Standards of Conduct for Mediators
