  • (2017). Contextual Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies Across the Psychosis Continuum: a Review of Evidence for Schizophrenia, Schizoaffective and Bipolar Disorders

Within the new emerging treatment approaches, Contextual Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (CCBT) seem to hold promise for the psychosis continuum. However, considering their novelty for this specific population, the quality of efficacy evidence remains unclear. Objective: To examine, critically analyze, and summarize the results from studies based on therapeutic models within the CCBT approach (Mindfulness and Acceptance-based interventions, Compassion-Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Metacognitive Therapy) for patients with a diagnosis within the psychosis continuum (schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder). Methods: Three leading electronic databases (MEDLINE/PUBMED; PsycINFO; Cochrane Library), a grey literature database (OpenGrey), and registered clinical trials (ClinicalTrials.Gov) were searched using combinations of key terms regarding the CCBT models and the diagnosis considered.

  • Metacognitive Training for Obsessive
    Miegel et al. BMC Psychiatry (2020) 20:350 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12888-020-02648-3 STUDY PROTOCOL Open Access Metacognitive Training for Obsessive- Compulsive Disorder: a study protocol for a randomized controlled trial Franziska Miegel* , Cüneyt Demiralay, Steffen Moritz, Janina Wirtz, Birgit Hottenrott and Lena Jelinek Abstract Background: A high number of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) do not receive cognitive- behavioral therapy with exposure and response prevention, which is the most effective treatment for OCD. Therefore, Metacognitive Training for OCD (MCT-OCD) was developed, which is a structured group therapy aiming at the modification of dysfunctional (meta-)cognitive biases, beliefs and coping styles. It can be administered by less trained personnel, thus may reach a higher number of patients. An uncontrolled pilot study (MCT-OCD pilot version) provided first evidence that the training is highly accepted by 2 patients; OC symptoms decreased with a high effect size (η partial = 0.50). The aim of the present study is to address the shortcomings of the pilot study (e.g., no control group) and to assess the efficacy of the revised version of the MCT-OCD in the framework of a randomized controlled trial. Methods: Eighty patients with OCD will be recruited. After a blinded assessment at baseline (−t1), patients will be randomly assigned either to the intervention group (MCT-OCD; n = 40) or to a care as usual control group (n = 40). The MCT-OCD aims to enhance patients’ metacognitive competence in eight modules by addressing dysfunctional (meta-)cognitive biases and beliefs associated with OCD (e.g., intolerance of uncertainty).

First, we would like to express our gratitude to all our colleagues for their help during the development of this manual. In particular, we would like to thank Birgit Hottenrott and Ruth Veckenstedt for their critical review of this manual and the implementation of an efficiency study on the Internet. We are also indebted to Jana Volkert for a preliminary translation of the manual, which was burdened by the fact that many of the original German examples do not work in other languages. Special thanks go to the translator Kenneth Kronenberg who edited the manual and suggested several new examples (http://www.kfkronenberg.com). Finally, we would like to thank participants in a pilot study, whose feedback, especially on comprehensibility and daily application of the technique, has led to significant improvement. We would be very grateful to receive feedback about your experiences with this method at [email protected]. Suggestions for improvements, and criticism, are as welcome as plaudits. Request for donations and funding Considering the difficult financial situation of many people suffering from obsessive- compulsive disorder (OCD), we will continue to offer this manual and other self-developed treatment programs free of charge (see for example our metacognitive training program for schizophrenia patients at http://www.uke.de/mkt).

  • Metacognition = Thinking About Thinking (Meta = Greek for Beyond)
    Preface to first edition 1 Moritz Hauschildt n Detecting and Defusing Thinking Traps Metacognitive Training for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (myMCT) Beta-version VanHam Campus Press 2012 (Hamburg) Preface to first edition 2 Preface to first edition Dear Reader, Thank you for your interest in the myMCT - Metacognitive Training for OCD! Why “metacognitive”? You might have wondered if there isn’t a simpler word. If so, you would not be the only one: The publishing company was concerned that a foreign word might scare away the readers. In addition, some of our colleagues did not think that the term was completely appropriate because not only metacognitive techniques are considered in this book. However, a series of reasons were decisive for holding onto the term metacognition (= thinking about thinking). This book deals with specific thinking traps contributing to OCD and teaches ways to diffuse them. It stimulates an examination of our own thinking: which thought contents are normal and which are not, how can I change the contents of my thinking and banish agonizing thoughts? These are all metacognitive questions. The myMCT combines views of various theories, especially metacognitive and cognitive-behavioral approaches, as well as some psychoanalytic assumptions which relate to parental education and coping with negative emotions, particularly aggression. In our opinion, differences among these approaches have been overemphasized in the past. Different terminologies - and sometimes also vanities - have blocked their synthesis. Don’t worry, terminology is kept at bay and the myMCT is written in plain English and not as a science book. photo frame?" of a photo "Meta by {dpade1337} (25/5/09) Metacognition: thinking about thinking! An earlier version of the myMCT was evaluated in 2009.
