  • Assessment of Emotional Functioning in Pain Treatment Outcome Research
    Assessment of emotional functioning in pain treatment outcome research Robert D. Kerns, Ph.D. VA Connecticut Healthcare System Yale University Running head: Emotional functioning Correspondence: Robert D. Kerns, Ph.D., Psychology Service (116B), VA Connecticut Healthcare System, 950 Campbell Avenue, West Haven, CT 06516; Phone: 203-937- 3841; Fax: 203-937-4951; Electronic mail: [email protected] Emotional Functioning 2 Assessment of Emotional Functioning in Pain Treatment Outcome Research The measurement of emotional functioning as an important outcome in empirical examinations of pain treatment efficacy and effectiveness has not yet been generally adopted in the field. This observation is puzzling given the large and ever expanding empirical literature on the relationship between the experience of pain and negative mood, symptoms of affective distress, and frank psychiatric disorder. For example, Turk (1996), despite noting the high prevalence of psychiatric disorder, particularly depression, among patients referred to multidisciplinary pain clinics, failed to list the assessment of mood or symptoms of affective distress as one of the commonly cited criteria for evaluating pain outcomes from these programs. In a more recent review, Turk (2002) also failed to identify emotional distress as a key index of clinical effectiveness of chronic pain treatment. A casual review of the published outcome research in the past several years fails to identify the inclusion of measures of emotional distress in most studies of pain treatment outcome, other than those designed to evaluate the efficacy of psychological interventions. In a recent edited volume, The Handbook of Pain Assessment (Turk & Melzack, 2001), several contributors specifically encouraged inclusion of measures of psychological distress in the assessment of pain treatment effects (Bradley & McKendree-Smith, 2001; Dworkin, Nagasako, Hetzel, & Farrar, 2001; Okifuji & Turk, 2001).

  • Understanding Psychological Pain
    UNDERSTANDING Psychological pain is defined as intense and unbearable emotional pain associated with suffering, guilt, anguish, fear, panic, angst, loneliness, and helplessness. Unresolved, psychological pain can sometimes result in self-harming behaviors, addiction, and death by suicide. SOURCE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_pain WHY DO PEOPLE ENGAGE IN SELF-HARMING BEHAVIORS? There are no simple answers. Everyone faces unique life challenges, which may include experiencing intense pain or trauma. For some, the emotions can feel overwhelming, leading them to hurt themselves on purpose to escape or cope. STOPPING OR ESCAPING COPING WITH UNDERLYING TRAUMA INTENSE PSYCHOLOGICAL PAIN To return from numbness: Emotional trauma To gain control: Self-harming can sometimes lead to disassociation (or a lack of behaviors are attempts to regain feelings). As a result, some people may engage subjective control over helplessness in behaviors to generate a strong physical or powerlessness by shifting attention sensation to bring them back to to distract from something more feeling “something” again. overwhelming or painful.

  • Depression As a Functional Response to Adversity and Strife
    Credible sadness, coercive sadness: Depression as a functional response to adversity and strife Edward H. Hagen1 Kristen L. Syme1,2 1Department of Anthropology Washington State University 14204 NE Salmon Creek Ave, Vancouver, WA, 98686 [email protected] 2Department of Applied and Experimental Psychology Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam the Netherlands [email protected] In The Oxford Handbook of Evolution and the Emotions, Laith Al-Shawaf and Todd Shackelford, Eds. 1 Abstract Evolutionary medicine offers the insight that many unpleasant conditions such as physical pain are not harmful in themselves but are evolved mechanisms to mitigate harm. A major goal of the field is to distinguish illnesses from aversive conditions that are evolved defenses. There are numerous evolutionary theories of depression, but many fail to account for the central role of conflict and cannot explain suicidality. We review evidence from Western and non-Western societies that depression is caused by adversity, conflict, and powerlessness. The most parsimonious theory is that depression evolved, in part, as a form of psychological pain that functions to mitigate harm, credibly signal need, and coerce help when the powerless are in conflicts with powerful others. Key terms: depression, suicide, mental health, cross-cultural, evolutionary medicine For of men one can, in general, say this: They are ungrateful, fickle, deceptive and deceiving, avoiders of danger, eager to gain. As long as you serve their interests, they are devoted to you. They promise you their blood, their possessions, their lives, and their children, as I said before, so long as you seem to have no need of them.

  • When Treatment Becomes Trauma: Defining, Preventing, and Transforming Medical Trauma
    Suggested APA style reference information can be found at http://www.counseling.org/knowledge-center/vistas Article 73 When Treatment Becomes Trauma: Defining, Preventing, and Transforming Medical Trauma Paper based on a program presented at the 2013 American Counseling Association Conference, March 24, Cincinnati, OH. Michelle Flaum Hall and Scott E. Hall Flaum Hall, Michelle, is an assistant professor in Counseling at Xavier University and has written and presented on the topic of medical trauma, post- traumatic growth, and wellness for nine years. Hall, Scott E., is an associate professor in Counselor Education and Human Services at the University of Dayton and has written and presented on trauma, depression, growth, and wellness for 18 years. Abstract Medical trauma, while not a common term in the lexicon of the health professions, is a phenomenon that deserves the attention of mental and physical healthcare providers. Trauma experienced as a result of medical procedures, illnesses, and hospital stays can have lasting effects. Those who experience medical trauma can develop clinically significant reactions such as PTSD, anxiety, depression, complicated grief, and somatic complaints. In addition to clinical disorders, secondary crises—including developmental, physical, existential, relational, occupational, spiritual, and of self—can lead people to seek counseling for ongoing support, growth, and healing. While counselors are central in treating the aftereffects of medical trauma and helping clients experience posttraumatic growth, the authors suggest the importance of mental health practitioners in the prevention and assessment of medical trauma within an integrated health paradigm. The prevention and treatment of trauma-related illnesses such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have been of increasing concern to health practitioners and policy makers in the United States (Tedstone & Tarrier, 2003).

  • Understanding the Relationship Between Social Anxiety and Personality
    Contractor and Sarkar: Relationship between Social anxiety and personality 107 Original Research Article Understanding the Relationship between Social Anxiety and Personality Ruhee Contractor1, Sejal Sarkar2 1,2Department of Psychology, K.C College, Mumbai. Corresponding author: Ms. Ruhee Contractor Email –[email protected] ABSTRACT Background: Previous studies on the relationship between social anxiety and personality have found that certain components of The Big Five such as neuroticism and extraversion are related to social anxiety. There is little data available on this relationship of social anxiety in Indian university students even though, past researchers have found that social phobia leads to impairment in various aspects of life. Thus, this research tried to narrow these gaps and explore the links between social anxiety and personality in Indian university students. Methods: The sample consisted of N=121 participants and they were asked to complete two questionnaires - The Big Five Factor Inventory and the Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS). A subscale of the LSAS i.e. total avoidance was measured to find its relationship with the Big Five. Pearson's correlation and multiple regressions were used to analyse the data. Results: Findings indicated that personality, in particular, high neuroticism and low extraversion, may play an important role in the manifestation of social anxiety. Interpretations and implications of predictive importance of the interaction of personality traits and avoidance in anxiety are discussed, and further speculations about different interventions and cross-cultural studies have been put forth. Conclusion:The strength of this study is that it is one of the few research studies done in India which look at this relationship.

ANT proposes the existence of seven primary emotional systems deeply Primary emotional systems anchored in the mammalian brain. These emotional/motivational systems have been shaped by evolutionary Panksepp processes and function as tools for survival in mammalian species. The systems are called SEEKING, LUST, CARE, Personality and PLAY, as well as ANGER, FEAR, and SADNESS. Panksepp carved out these emotional systems via means of Psychiatry Psychology deep brain stimulation, brain lesion and pharmacological manipulation studies. Neuroscience Davis et al. (2003) designed the Affective Neuroscience Personality Scales (ANPS) against the background of ANPS findings from ANT. This self-report inventory is meant to enable researchers to assess individual differences in BANPS primary emotional systems.
