Type D personality and sense of coherence as predictors of young people’s health behaviour
No full textThe aim of this study was to establish whether the dimensions of type D personality – negative affectivity and social inhibition, and sense of coherence determine adolescents’ health behaviours. The research was conducted on the group of 211 people – 96 boys and 115 girls aged 17–19 years (M = 18.01, SD = 0.49). The research tools were: Health Behaviours Inventory (IZZ), author: Z. Juczyński (2001); The scale to measure the type D personality DS-14, Author: J. Denollet, Polish adaptation of N. Ogińska-Bulik, Z. Juczyński, J. Denollet (Juczyński, Ogińska-Bulik, 2009); Life Orientation Questionnaire (SOC-29), author: A. Antonovsky, Polish adaptation of J. Koniarek, B. Dudek, Z. Makowska (1993). In order to indentify variables that determine young people’s health related behaviour regression analysis and structural modeling were used. The studies have shown that in the group of boys the direct indicator of health behaviour is the dimension of sense of coherence – a sense of meaningfullness, while in the group of girls – a type D personality dimension, which is negative affectivity.Udostępnienie publikacji Wydawnictwa Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego finansowane w ramach projektu „Doskonałość naukowa kluczem do doskonałości kształcenia”.

Fractal Analysis of Data from Seismometer Array Monitoring Virgo Interferometer
No full textThe local Hurst exponent H(t) has been computed for an array of 38 seismometers, deployed at the Virgo West End Building for Newtonian Noise characterisation purposes. The analysed period is from January 31st, 2018 to February 5th, 2018. The Hurst exponent H is a fractal index quantifying the persistent behaviour of a time series, higher H corresponding to higher persistency. The adopted methodology makes use of the local Hurst exponent computed using small sliding windows, in order to characterise the properties of the seismometers. Hourly averages and averages of H(t) have been computed over the whole analysed period. Results show that seismometers placed on a concrete slab closer to the centre of the room systematically exhibit higher persistency than the ones that are not placed on it. Seismometers placed next to the outer walls also exhibit higher persistency. The seismometer placed on a thin metal plate exhibits instead very low values of persistency during the analysed period, compared to the rest of the array
Type C behavior pattern. Study of developmental and psychosocial factors and counterparts of WZC
No full textType C personality – type C pattern – was introduced by T. Morris and S. Greer to define cancer personality, that is cancer-prone risk factor. It describes personality – behaviour pattern as negative emotionality: denial, non-expression of negative emotions (especially anger), helplessness, quietness, lack of self-assertion, pessimism, compliance. In time, researchers started to treat WZC as a risk factor of cancer and also other psychosomatic diseases (stomach ulcer, rheumatoid arthritis). WZC didn’t gain such recognition and popularity like type A pattern. Precise analysis of a preliminary study shows interesting factors and counterparts, and describes its significance for psychosocial functioning and health. This study presents preliminary results of the research and influence on temperamental properties, early childhood experiences and later experiences of one’s body, sense of value, gender, style of attachment, aggression, self-aggression and defensive capability for WZC development.Udostępnienie publikacji Wydawnictwa Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego finansowane w ramach projektu „Doskonałość naukowa kluczem do doskonałości kształcenia”.

Therapeutic communication as an important area within health psychology
No full textThe dynamic development of health psychology has led this discipline to take a significant position among other psychological disciplines in a relatively short time. Its attainments can be considered outstanding, and the list of issues belonging to the field of health psychology is enormous at present. This list manifests close relations with the psychology of stress, health promotion and medicine. Simultaneously, the problem of psychological support in illness, including the relation between a therapist and a patient, remains relatively insignificant. According to the author, the idea of the therapeutic communication suggested by him nicely describes the important, though still undervalued, area of applying psychology for treating various diseases. This area should definitely be treated with more respect not only in medicine, but also in health psychology. In his work the author presents the therapeutic communication model, describing its most important components, e.g. definition, purposes, therapeutic relationship, personal resources of vital importance for this relationship and the basic therapeutic communication forms and abilities.Udostępnienie publikacji Wydawnictwa Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego finansowane w ramach projektu „Doskonałość naukowa kluczem do doskonałości kształcenia”.

Determinants of emotional states in exercising pregnant women
No full textThe aim of the study was to determine the effect of a single exercise session on mood states in pregnant women and to establish determinants of the effect size. Subjects in the study were 25 pregnant women aged 22 to 36 years participating in a physical exercise program “Active Nine Months”. The following tools were used: POMS, UMACL, STAI, GHQ-28, LOT-R, NEO-FFI; the Labor Anxiety Scale and personal questionnaire developed by the author. A single session of physical exercise was followed by a significant improvement in the participants’ mood states. The most salient determinant of mood improvement was trimester of pregnancy, allowing to predict the degree of decrease in state anxiety, anger and confusion. Labor anxiety was positively correlated with trait anxiety and economic status. The trimester of pregnancy and marital status were its predictors. Systematic physical activity during pregnancy may act as an important factor decreasing the risk of affective disorders and enhancing pregnant women’s quality of life.Badania realizowane w ramach projektu NN 404 017838: „Aktywność ruchowa kobiet ciężarnych a stan ich zdrowia psychicznego i fizycznego oraz przebieg ciąży i porodu” finansowanego przez MNiSzW.

Study of correlations between seismic data and Virgo's gravitational-wave detector data
No full textIt is expected that noise produced by terrestrial gravity fluctuations will start to limit the sensitivity of the ground-based, gravitational-wave detector Virgo in coming observation runs. A system is under preparation at Virgo to cancel this noise, also known as Newtonian noise. This Newtonian noise cancelation system requires the deployment of seismometer arrays inside the Virgo buildings.
Crucial for the design of such a system is a detailed understanding of correlations between ground vibrations and Virgo’s gravitational waves detector data.
In this article, we present first analyses of such correlations observed with a tiltmeter. We find that revealed correlations are stronger than predicted by possible pure gravitational coupling,which is pointing towards additional coupling mechanisms. These findings might impact the design of the Newtonian noise cancelation system if the additional couplings cannot be mitigated
Acceptance of chronic somatic diseases (psoriasis and asthma). Whether the belief about having impact on own health always help?
No full textThe aim of this study was to assess the level of acceptance of two selected chronic conditions, different in terms of the clinical picture – asthma and psoriasis and to define the role of belief in the possession of the impact on their health in adapting to illness. Studies also included medical and demographic variables. The following methods were used: Acceptance Illness Scale (B. Felton, T. Revenson, G. Hinrichsen, Polish adaptation: Z. Juczyński (2001)), The Multidimensional Health Locus of Control Scale MHLC (K. Wallston, B. Wallston, R. Devellis, Polish adaptation: Z. Juczyński (2001)), PASI Scale to measure the severity of psoriasis (Fridriksson, Petersson, 1978). The severity of asthma was assessed by a specialist pulmonologist on the basis of classification of internal medicine NHLB/NAEPP. 112 patients with asthma and 120 patients with psoriasis participated in this study. It turned out that the treatment groups differ in level of acceptance of the disease. In both groups, the acceptance of illness linked to other dimensions of health locus of control, the constellations of different variables determine the acceptance of asthma and psoriasis.Udostępnienie publikacji Wydawnictwa Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego finansowane w ramach projektu „Doskonałość naukowa kluczem do doskonałości kształcenia”.
