Could the new Southampton Experiential Avoidance and Acceptance Scale (SEAAS) clarify how acceptance and avoidance interact, offering a reliable tool for measuring these distinct yet connected constructs? https://t.co/XMnKfKOWU3 #acceptance #psychometrics #scaledevelopment

The great psychoanalyst Otto Rank remarked that “we often refuse the loan of life in order to avoid the debt of death.” We keep the possibilities in front of us and avoid making abstract choices because each decision brings us closer to our mortality. https://t.co/67iKY1wBtP

"Dr Tania Gergel, a researcher at UCL who is leading on the Advance Choice project, said this would represent a move away from the “paternalistic” model of psychiatry, reflecting that “people have a very good understanding of their illness”." https://t.co/B51sv3XljD

Beautifully made telling of a moment in these two lives. "Disabilities are secondary, we are people first."

Clinical instability can predict psychiatric hospitalisation. This is true across diagnoses, genders, and ages. It provides information that complements clinical severity. New paper in @TheLancetPsych w/ @OxPsychiatry @OxHealthBRC @holmusk https://t.co/abWEzStGfQ 🧵1/7

A sobering assessment of the state of evidence for psychotherapies & pharmacotherapies… I can’t help but wonder if it is also a sobering assessment of the value of RCTs & meta-analyses, at least in the manner in which they have been conducted for decades

Felt reluctant to post this on the day itself, but I do think it’s incredibly important for psychologists to acknowledge 9/11. Every psychologist should be taught about their profession’s role in torture at Guantanamo Bay. /thread

"Derealization is common among these trauma- and dissociation-related diagnoses, but it’s not just associated with trauma. For example, derealization can be a sign of depression and any kind of anxiety, especially panic attacks." https://t.co/4AII4bK61C

[Shayla Love @shayla__love]

Despite being common in psychosis, the belief that people are out to hurt you is hard to treat. I spoke to @ProfDFreeman about a new therapy, the Feeling Safe program—now the most effective psychological treatment for persecutory delusions. https://t.co/XS6q9FlpSr

[The Mental Elf @Mental_Elf]

Today @imo_bell blogs about an RCT of @SlowMoTherapy by Philippa Garety, @ProfDFreeman, @AmybHardy et al in @JAMAPsych

SlowMo aims to slow down thinking patterns and correct interpretation biases in people experiencing paranoia.

“while it is common for commentators to observe that young Australians "have a mental health problem", in many ways it is more accurate to say that they have an economic and social problem — one [with] devastating consequences for their mental health.” https://t.co/8hexHXfKmG

Oh man, more data that the Acceptance & Action Questionnaire (AAQ I and II) are really measures of psychological distress. Happy to see another measure of psychological flexibility that does the job. https://t.co/vXpMHmj9LU

[Micah G. Allen @micahgallen]

I am often asked why I left meditation/mindfulness research after my PhD. The simple answer is that I wanted to persue basic research in computational neuroscience and perception science. The longer answer...

[Dr Skye Kinder @skyekinder]

While shift to community-based treatment has been important component in deinstitutionalising mental healthcare, we currently have a shortfall of acute psychiatric inpatient beds in Australia resulting in many patients being turned away for admission despite need #RANZCP2021
