Acceptance and thought suppression as mechanisms of childhood obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
No full textThis preliminary study experimentally examined the effects of two emotion regulation conditions (Thought Suppression and Acceptance) for intrusive thoughts on thought count frequency, subjective thought frequency, distress, and secondary outcome variables deemed important to youth intrusive thoughts in a heterogeneous clinical sample of 24 youth participants over three study time periods (baseline, experimental, return to baseline). A series of two-way, repeated ANOVAs revealed that there were no statistically significant differences between Thought Suppression and Acceptance from baseline to the experimental period or from the experimental to the return to baseline period in thought count frequency, subjective thought frequency, and distress, suggesting no counterproductive effects of youth thought suppression compared to acceptance. A series of one-way ANCOVAs revealed that there were no between-condition statistically significant differences in the levels of believability, urge to push away target thoughts, and willingness to continue thinking about target thoughts in the experimental or return to baseline periods. But, according to nonsignificant trends based on effect sizes, there was a medium to large effect size for greater decreases in distress from baseline to the experimental period in Acceptance than Thought Suppression, a large effect size for greater decreases in subjective thought frequency from the experimental to return to baseline period in Acceptance than Thought Suppression, and a large effect size for lower urges to push away target thoughts during the return to baseline period in Acceptance than Thought Suppression. If trends continue with larger samples, they could indicate a possible counterproductive effect of thought suppression and beneficial comparative impact of acceptance strategies in clinical youth. Study innovations, limitations, and recommendations for future paradigms with clinical youth are discussed.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Tara Lynn Harriso
Viola M. Harrison letter to Lucile Atcherson, August 14, 1914
No full textOn August 14, 1914, the executive secretary of the Nebraska Woman Suffrage Association, Viola M. Harrison, sent this letter to Lucile Atcherson, a suffragist in central Ohio and executive secretary of the Franklin County Woman Suffrage Association. Harrison wrote to Atcherson to confirm that the Nebraska Woman Suffrage Association's state banner, which had been on loan with the FCWSA, had arrived safely in Lincoln, Nebraska. Harrison also congratulated Atcherson on a successful petition event in Ohio, and expressed her hopes for both Ohio and Nebraska to achieve equal suffrage for women.
The Franklin County Woman Suffrage Association was formed in 1912, after the Ohio Constitutional Convention elected to bring to a vote the question of removing the words "white male" from the state constitution with regard to voting rights. Headquartered in the Chamber of Commerce building in Columbus, Ohio, the organization put out regular publications, organized public speeches and meetings, distributed literature and held parades in support of the suffrage movement. Women's suffrage in Ohio was defeated in a special election in 1912 and again in 1914 and 1916 before a resolution narrowly passed in 1917 allowing municipal voting by women in Columbus. In 1920, the 19th Amendment passed, extending the vote to women and prohibiting state and federal government from denying suffrage on the basis of sex
