(https://ifp.nyu.edu/2023/meta-analyses-systematic-reviews/psychological_stress_and_mitochondria__a-3-aspx-2/) Psychological Stress and Mitochondria: A Systematic Review
Aug 18th 2023, 12:29
Objective
Mitochondria are multifunctional life-sustaining organelles that represent a potential intersection point between psychosocial experiences and biological stress responses. This article provides a systematic review of the effects of psychological stress on mitochondrial structure and function.
Methods
A systematic review of the literature investigating the effects of psychological stress on mitochondrial function was conducted. The review focused on experimentally controlled studies allowing us to draw causal inference about the effect of induced psychological stress on mitochondria.
Results
A total of 23 studies met the inclusion criteria. All studies involved male laboratory animals, and most demonstrated that acute and chronic stressors influenced specific facets of mitochondrial function, particularly within the brain. Nineteen studies showed significant adverse effects of psychological stress on mitochondria and four found increases in function or size after stress. In humans, only six observational studies were available, none with experimental designs, and most only measured biological markers that do not directly reflect mitochondrial function, such as mitochondrial DNA copy number.
Conclusons
Overall, evidence supports the notion that acute and chronic stressors influence various aspects of mitochondrial biology, and that chronic stress exposure can lead to molecular and functional recalibrations among mitochondria. Limitations of current animal and human studies are discussed. Maladaptive mitochondrial changes that characterize this subcellular state of stress are termed mitochondrial allostatic load. Prospective studies with sensitive measures of specific mitochondrial outcomes will be needed to establish the link between psychosocial stressors, emotional states, the resulting neuroendocrine and immune processes, and mitochondrial energetics relevant to mind-body research in humans.

Aug 18th 2023, 11:03
Abstract
Many parents attempt to limit adolescents’ screen time without changing their own habits. We examined whether “whole-family” versus “youth-focused” restrictions differentially predict social media-related difficulties (procrastination and problematic use), and whether adolescents’ impulsive social media behaviors moderated these relationships. Among 183 Chinese early adolescents (58.5% female), whole-family rules negatively predicted procrastination. Impulsivity moderated associations between rulemaking approaches and social media difficulties; youth-focused rules negatively predicted procrastination and problematic use for highly impulsive adolescents, while whole-family rules held no associations or predicted increased difficulties. For less impulsive adolescents, however, whole-family rules negatively predicted social media difficulties and youth-focused rules positively predicted problematic use. Results suggest that setting the implementation of screen rules should involve parental participation and consideration of individual differences.

Aug 18th 2023, 11:03
Abstract
We examined associations between hope as an internal asset that supports positive youth development, and growth trajectories of three critical consciousness components. Using five waves of data collected over the course of high school (N = 618), we modeled growth trajectories of awareness of inequity (critical reflection), a sense of agency about taking sociopolitical action (critical agency), and behaviors targeting systems of oppression (critical action). Hope was highest among those with high trajectories of critical agency and critical action. Clear associations with hope emerged at the last time point for critical reflection, suggesting that sustained growth in critical reflection is associated with hope. When supporting the critical consciousness development of youth of color, concurrent support for hope may be instrumental.

(https://ifp.nyu.edu/2023/journal-article-abstracts/executive_functioning_language_and_behavioral-4-aspx/) Executive Functioning, Language, and Behavioral Abilities Related to Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Down Syndrome
Aug 18th 2023, 10:19
Abstract:
Objectives:
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is highly prevalent among individuals with Down syndrome (DS), and the nonphysiological consequences of OSA require examination to inform treatment planning. This study aimed to investigate the association between OSA and aspects of language, executive functioning, behavioral, social abilities, and sleep problems in youth with DS aged 6 to 17 years.
Methods:
Multivariate analysis of covariance was used to compare 3 groups adjusted for age, participants with DS with untreated OSA (n = 28), participants with DS without OSA (n = 38), and participants with DS with treated OSA (n = 34). To be eligible for the study, participants had to have an estimated mental age of 3 years. No children were excluded based on estimated mental age.
Results:
After adjusting for age, participants with untreated OSA showed a common pattern of lower estimated marginal mean scores than those with treated OSA and those with no OSA in expressive and receptive vocabulary and higher estimated marginal mean scores with executive functions, everyday memory, attention, internalizing and externalizing behavior, social behavior, and sleep problems. However, only the group differences for executive function (emotional regulation) and internalizing behavior were statistically significant.
Conclusion:
Study findings corroborate and extend prior findings related to OSA and clinical outcomes for youth with DS. The study highlights the importance of OSA treatment in youth with DS and provides clinical recommendations for this population. Additional studies are necessary to control the effects of health and demographic variables.

Aug 18th 2023, 10:19
Objective
The aim of this study was to examine the interactions between race/ethnicity and income across different types of tobacco products.
Methods
The prevalence of past 30-day use of cigarettes, traditional cigars, cigarillos, filtered little cigars, and electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) among adults was examined by race/ethnicity and income levels based on wave 5 (2018–2019) data of the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health study.
Results
Multivariate analysis across race/ethnicity and income showed that, although non-Hispanic Blacks (NHBs) were significantly more than likely to smoke cigarettes than non-Hispanic Whites (NHWs) at low- and high-income levels, such disparity only applied to low-income Hispanics compared with low-income NHWs. NHBs were significantly more likely to smoke traditional cigars, cigarillos, and filtered little cigars than NHWs at low and high incomes. No differences were found between Hispanics and NHWs with regard to traditional cigars and cigarillos. However, low-income Hispanics were significantly less likely to smoke filtered little cigars than NHWs, whereas high-income Hispanics were more likely to do so than NHWs. With regard to ENDS, significant differences were only found at the low-income bracket with NHBs and Hispanics being less likely to smoke these products than NHWs.
Conclusions
Our findings highlight significant interactions between race/ethnicity and income in the use of tobacco products, suggesting that income should be taken into account when designing interventions targeting different racial/ethnic groups.

Aug 18th 2023, 10:18
Since the first implantation in July 2001, the intrathecal baclofen (ITB) therapy for patients with generalized spasticity has been used in Slovenia for 20 years. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the rates of different complications, especially if catheter-related complications were less frequent after the introduction of the coated catheter type in February 2013, and the potential correlation between higher baclofen doses and the incidence of complications. We retrospectively collected data from all patients in the registry during the period from 3 July 2001 to 31 December 2021. Among 138 patients (48 females), 120 patients had the first ITB system implanted at the University Medical Centre Ljubljana. Forty-three complications were reported in 38 patients (27%), with a total complication rate of 0.203/1000 days or 0.074/pump year. The most frequent was catheter-related (0.083/1000 days or 0.030/pump year), followed by skin-related (0.063/1000 days or 0.023/pump year) and pump-related complication (0.026/1000 days or 0.009/pump year). The incidence of catheter-related complications decreased significantly since the use of Ascenda type catheter: 14/7 complications per 88/147 implantations (P = 0.008). Patients with complications had a statistically significantly higher dose of baclofen: median 400 µg/24h vs. median 300 µg/24h (P = 0.016). Our retrospective analysis confirmed a significant decrease of catheter-related complications after the implementation of Ascenda type catheter in February 2013. Patients with a higher ITB dose had a statistically significantly higher incidence of complications. The total complication rate was a bit higher as previously reported in other studies, which is consistent with a long follow-up time.

Aug 18th 2023, 10:13
Video game addiction is one of the mental health problems due to the uncontrolled activities in accessing video game platforms. This study aimed to identify the tendencies of video game addiction among Senior High School students based on the aspects of Regulatory Focus Theory and interpersonal competence. It implemented a quantitative descriptive model with a 2×2 factorial design. A total of 1046 students participated in the survey. The findings revealed the increasing video game addiction cases among the students during the COVID-19 pandemic. The students with a high promotion focus and a high interpersonal competence as well as those with a low prevention focus and a low interpersonal competence tended to experience video game addiction.

Aug 18th 2023, 10:04
Abstract
>From the couples-centered perspective that has dominated public discourse and scholarly literature, the values and interests of coupled people are the implicit standard against which single people are judged, resulting in deficit narratives of single life. From that perspective, single people are “alone” and “unattached,” the important people in their lives are mere substitutes for a romantic partner, and their families, if recognized at all, are described as “alternative” family forms. From a singles-centered perspective, single life can be a psychologically rich life of freedom and autonomy, where people can chart their own life course, and value “The Ones” rather than “The One.” Solitude can be savored rather than feared, and family, intimacy, and love encompass far more than just nuclear family, sexual intimacy, and romantic love. A singles-centered perspective recognizes systems of inequality that disadvantage single people and privilege coupled people.

Aug 18th 2023, 09:39
Health Psychology, Vol 42(9), Sep 2023, 628-641; doi:10.1037/hea0001328
Objectives: Type D personality has been associated with adverse cardiovascular health, with atypical cardiovascular reactions to psychological stress considered a possible mechanism of effect. However, studies examining Type D personality and cardiovascular reactions to acute stress have yielded mixed findings. Here, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analyses to examine if, and under what conditions, Type D personality is associated with cardiovascular reactivity to stress; a particular focus was placed on sex and the social salience of the stressor as potential moderators of effects. Method: Electronic databases (Medline, PsycArticles, PsycInfo, CINAHL, PubMed, Web of Science) were searched for relevant publications. A total of 401 articles were retrieved and screened for eligibility. Inclusion criteria included studies with nonclinical samples employing a resting baseline period followed by a psychological stress task period and measurement of cardiovascular reactivity. Following screening and removal of irrelevant articles, 17 peer-reviewed studies were included in the review. Result: Type D personality was associated with lower blood pressure reactivity to acute psychological stress. Subgroup analyses revealed an association between Type D personality and lower cardiovascular reactivity among females, but not males. Additionally, Type D personality was primarily associated with lower cardiovascular reactivity in response to nonsocial stressors. Conclusions: Type D personality is associated with lower blood pressure reactivity to acute psychological stress, particularly among females and in response to nonsocial stressors. This lower response may be indicative of blunted cardiovascular reactivity and therefore signals an increased risk of adverse health outcomes.

Aug 18th 2023, 09:39
Health Psychology, Vol 42(9), Sep 2023, 642-656; doi:10.1037/hea0001307
Objective: The stress reactivity hypothesis (SRH) posits that stressful early environments contribute to exaggerated stress responses, which increase risk for later cardiovascular (CV) disease. However, recent studies have revealed conflicting associations. The current study examined whether the biological sensitivity to context theory (BSCT) or SRH is a more accurate description of associations between early stress and CV reactivity and recovery, and determine which framework best explains sleep outcomes. This is the first article to conceptually link these theories and empirically examine competing hypotheses. Method: Participants were 213 adults who participated in the Pittsburgh Cold Study 3. Early environment stress was assessed by four self-report measures consistent with operationalizations of the BSCT. Average heart rate and mean arterial pressure reactivity to the trier social stress test were assessed on two occasions, and sleep parameters were assessed using wrist-worn actigraphy over 7 days. Results: Results generally did not support the SRH; little evidence that high-stress early environments were reliably associated with exaggerated CV reactivity or slower CV recovery, and little evidence that these CV stress responses were consistently associated with poor sleep. However, there was some support for the BSCT; both high-stress and low-stress early environments were associated with exaggerated CV reactivity, the combination of high-stress and high CV reactivity was associated with poor sleep, and the combination of low-stress and high CV reactivity was associated with better sleep. Conclusions: Associations proposed by the BSCT persist into adulthood and may help explain associations with poor health outcomes. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)

Couple and Family Psychology: Research and Practice, Vol 12(3), Sep 2023, 132-145; doi:10.1037/cfp0000197
Prior research indicates an ability to be mindful helps explain the well-established links between adult attachment orientations and anxiety symptoms. Although romantic partners affect each other’s cognitions and emotions, less is known about these associations within the context of a romantic relationship or between romantic partners. In this study, we examined whether trait mindfulness mediates the associations between attachment anxiety and avoidance and anxiety symptoms within and between romantic partners. Data from 219 heterosexual couples were analyzed using an actor–partner interdependence mediation model. Findings revealed trait mindfulness mediated the associations between one’s own attachment anxiety and avoidance with one’s own anxiety symptoms. Also, a male romantic partner’s attachment anxiety related to his female romantic partner’s trait mindfulness which in turn related to her own anxiety symptoms. Overall, the results indicate trait mindfulness plays an important role for understanding and potentially addressing how insecure attachment orientations relate to anxiety symptoms within and between romantic partners.

Couple Relationship Education (RE) is a brief intervention that aims to enhance the relationships of currently satisfied couples. Meta-analyses of RE evaluations find small effect size gains in relationship satisfaction, which might reflect that RE is a weak intervention. Alternatively, the demonstrated insensitivity of current measures of relationship satisfaction to variance at the upper end of the relationship quality range might underestimate change that is occurring. Recently developed measures of couple flourishing are designed to more sensitively measure high levels of relationship quality. The present study examined changes after RE in 21 couples on two measures of couple flourishing and one measure of couple satisfaction. RE was associated with a significant but small effect size improvement in satisfaction and a significant medium-to-large effect size improvement in couple flourishing. While replication is needed, current findings suggest that measure insensitivity might have led to understatement of the true of effects of RE, at least in some populations.

Aug 18th 2023, 09:03
Abstract
Background
Promoting happiness has become increasingly important in old age for a wide range of reasons. In this study, we aim to examine the association between social inclusion (SI) and happiness among older adults in Ghana and identify the mediating factors.
Methods
The study included 1201 community-dwelling adults aged ≥50 (mean age = 66.4 ± SD 11.9 years; 63.3% female) from the 2016–2018 Ageing, Health, Psychological Well-being, and Health-seeking Behaviour Study. We assessed happiness with a self-rated and cross-culturally validated item on a five-point scale. SI was operationalised using the modified Berkman–Syme Social Network Index. The hypothesised associations were evaluated by hierarchical regressions and bootstrapping techniques from Hayes’ PROCESS macro programme.
Results
The prevalence of happiness was 24.3% (all of the time), 43.6% (most of the time), 28.3% (little of the time), and 3.7% (none of the time). After controlling for potential confounders, higher SI was associated with increased levels of happiness (odds ratio (OR) = 1.36; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.16–2.51). Aside from family/friends contacts, all other SI domains positively influenced happiness (OR = 1.45–1.81). The link between SI and happiness was mediated by depressive symptoms (65.2%), generalised anxiety (30.1%), and sleep problems (9.5%).
Conclusions
Our data suggest that psychological factors may largely explain the positive SI-happiness link. Efforts should target these factors to promote happiness in old age. Longitudinal analysis may confirm our findings.
