Transitioning from Acute to Chronic Pain: An Examination of Different Trajectories of Low-Back Pain

Description: The article examines the most recent trajectory research, and highlights the importance of developing a broader model for patient evaluation.

However, it appears that pain progression is much more complicated and individualized than this original unsupported assumpt… more

An Investlarks and Hearts: Circadian Mismatch and Effort Intensity

This study assessed the NIH-BFI's validity in diverse clinical populations, which included patients diagnosed with a mood disorder, Parkinso… more

From Childhood Maltreatment to Depressive Symptoms in Adulthood: The Roles of Self-Compassion and Shame

Description: We hypothesized that the formation of malevolent introjects undermines the development of self-compassion, which in turn produces greater feelings of shame. We hypothesized that these feelings of shame account for concurrent depressive symptoms in adulthood. To test these hypotheses, we proposed a multiple mediator mediation model in which our independent variable was childhood maltreatment. We modeled child maltreatment as negatively predicting our first mediator, self-compassion, which in … more
