Abstract Background Individuals with social anxiety experience a larger number of negative life events. However, studies applying the stress generation model to social anxiety are limited, and factors predicting stress generation have not been adequately examined. This study examined whether post-event processing (PEP) predicted stress generation in social anxiety. Methods Five hundred students participated in the survey. The survey was conducted at two time points (T1 and T2), collecting data regarding PEP, negative life events (negative interpersonal dependent events, negative non-interpersonal dependent events, and negative independent events), social anxiety symptoms, and depressive symptoms. Results PEP measured at T1 did not significantly predict the experience of negative dependent events at T2. Social anxiety symptoms did not predict the experience of negative interpersonal dependent events, while depressive symptoms predicted the experience of all negative life events. Conclusions PEP may not be a predictor of stress generation in social anxiety. The influence of depressive symptoms should be considered in the stress generation model.

Abstract Bedtime procrastination (BP) is prevalent and problematic, with no previous study conducted in Japan. This study developed the Japanese version of the Bedtime Procrastination Scale (BPS), assessed its validity, and investigated the relationship between BP, demographic features, and sleep outcomes. Participants were divided into two samples (N = 252 and N = 630). Sample 1 involved a longitudinal study to confirm test–retest reliability of the BPS. Sample 2 involved a cross-sectional study to assess confirmatory factor analysis, criterion-related validity, construct validity, and determine the internal consistency of the BPS. The relationship between BP and demographic features (gender, age, and employment status) and sleep outcomes (Athens Insomnia Scale, sleep hours, sleep onset latency, and sleep efficiency) was investigated using Sample 2. The BPS showed good internal consistency (Cronbach’s α coefficients = .90–91), test–retest reliability (ICC = .86), and one factor model was valid; CFI = .95, TLI = .94, RMSEA = .10, and SRMR = .04. The BPS had a moderate positive association with general procrastination, moderate negative associations with self-control, sleep quality, and sleep duration on weekdays, and those who answered “yes” to the item “Do you have trouble with bedtime procrastination?” had higher BPS scores. BPS scores were moderately higher for younger participants (≤ 40 years), slightly higher for females, and non-significantly different between employment statuses. The BPS showed a significant positive correlation with insomnia symptoms, weak positive association with sleep efficiency on weekdays and holidays, and no significant association with sleep onset latencies on holidays and weekdays. This study provides new data on demographic predictors of BP in Japan. No clear effects of gender and employment status were found, but age was a strong predictor of BP, where younger age groups had a higher BP risk.

BACKGROUND: Identifying important types of social support for patients with epilepsy is valuable to construct an effective system for support in daily life. However, previous studies have been inconsistent in identifying the most important types of social support for better quality of life (QOL) due to the high correlations between the social support factors. The present study employed network visualization analysis to identify the relationships between QOL and types of social support. METHODS: Two hundred and eighty-three patients with epilepsy (age range: 18 to 75 years) completed questionnaires of the Medical Outcomes Study Social Support Survey (MOS-SSS) and the Quality of Life in Epilepsy Inventory-31-Problems in the epilepsy monitoring unit at Tohoku University. The MOS-SSS was established to measure the four types of social support including emotional/informational support, tangible support, affectionate support, and positive social interaction. Our network visualization analysis represented the entire structure of the interrelationships between the four functions of social support and QOL. In addition, the relative importance of each function of social support were estimated by the centrality indices using three commonly used centrality indices: strength, betweenness, and closeness. RESULTS: The visualized network showed that positive social interaction and emotional/informational support were directly associated with QOL, whereas tangible support and affectionate support were not. Positive social interaction had the highest value for all three centrality indices and affectionate support had the second highest. Therefore, positive social interaction had the strongest connection to the other functions of support. DISCUSSION: Our network analysis and centrality indices findings showed that positive social interaction is the most important within the network of four types of social support and QOL. The emotional informational function is also important for directly improving QOL but is less related to the other functions. The affectionate function might be an indicator of whether a patient has a foundational relationship that leads to other functions of support. CONCLUSION: These results showed the importance of increasing positive social interaction in the social environment of patients with epilepsy. Therefore, practitioners need to encourage patients with epilepsy to increase their positive social interactions such as doing something enjoyable with others or someone to associate for relaxation to ensure high QOL. Connections outside the epilepsy support are important, such as having fun regardless of epilepsy, rather than only providing emotional or tangible support for epilepsy.

<title>Abstract</title>Although adult patients with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often have sleep problems, few studies have verified the effect of a psychological approach specific to sleep–wake rhythms on these sleep disturbances. Therefore, the aim of this pilot study was to develop a trans-diagnostic approach with sleep scheduling and regularity of sleep duration as core modules, and to examine the effect of the intervention in adult ADHD and/or ASD subjects with sleep disturbances. This was a within-group pilot study. Ten patients with adult ADHD and/or ASD with sleep disturbances (10 males, age: 27.4 ± 5.6 years) took part in a 90-min weekly group intervention for 5 weeks. All participants were assessed on scales for sleep complaints, anxiety, depression, and symptoms of ADHD and ASD before and after the intervention, and at 3-month follow-up. The results showed that the intervention significantly improved sleep disturbances at post-intervention (<italic>p</italic> = 0.003, <italic>d</italic> = 1.30, 95% CI 0.31–2.28) and at the 3-month follow-up (<italic>p</italic> = 0.035, <italic>d</italic> = 0.41, 95% CI − 0.48 to 1.30). In addition, attention switching for ASD symptoms was significantly reduced post-intervention (<italic>p</italic> = 0.031, <italic>d</italic> = 1.16, 95% CI 0.19–2.13). This is the first pilot study of a trans-diagnostic group approach for adult ADHD and/or ASD with sleep disturbances. The intervention primarily led to an improvement of sleep disturbances, followed by improvement of disease-specific symptoms in adult subjects with ADHD and ASD.

Background: In this study, we examined the relationships between reward-based decision-making in terms of learning rate, memory rate, exploration rate, and depression-related subjective emotional experience, in terms of interoception and feelings, to understand how reward-based decision-making is impaired in depression. Methods: In all, 52 university students were randomly assigned to an experimental group and a control group. To manipulate interoception, the participants in the experimental group were instructed to tune their internal somatic sense to the skin-conductance-response waveform presented on a display. The participants in the control group were only instructed to stay relaxed. Before and after the manipulation, the participants completed a probabilistic reversal-learning task to assess reward-based decision-making using reinforcement learning modeling. Similarly, participants completed a probe-detection task, a heartbeat-detection task, and self-rated scales. Results: The experimental manipulation of interoception was not successful. In the baseline testing, reinforcement learning modeling indicated a marginally-significant correlation between the exploration rate and depressive symptoms. However, the exploration rate was significantly associated with lower interoceptive attention and higher depressive feeling. Conclusions: The findings suggest that situational characteristics may be closely involved in reward exploration and highlight the clinically-meaningful possibility that intervention for affective processes may impact reward-based decision-making in those with depression.

The purpose of this meta-analysis is to examine the association between social anxiety disorder and cortisol response to psychological stressors. A total of 9 studies comparing individuals diagnosed with social anxiety disorder (SA: N=265) and healthy controls (HC: N=199) were included. Effect sizes were calculated and averaged across baseline (before stressor onset), stress (stressor onset up to 25 min after stressor offset), and recovery (more than 25 min after stressor offset) periods. Overall, SA individuals exhibited higher cortisol levels at all time periods. This result indicates that SA individuals exhibit exaggerated cortisol response not only in the face of social stressors, but also through pre and post-stress cognitive processing.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influences of attainable goal-setting on speech-related cognition in socially anxious individuals. Forty undergraduates completed 2 speech tasks, and we examined changes in speech-related cognition depending on the presence or absence of goal-setting. Participants in the goal-setting condition set attainable goals for speech tasks using worksheets by themselves, and participants in the control condition completed arithmetic tasks. Unexpectedly, in the control condition, perceived social standards in those with a high level of social anxiety were attenuated. In addition, state anxiety after speech tasks decreased in the control condition regardless of social anxiety. These findings suggest that goal-setting in the method of this study led to an increase of perceived social standards and state anxiety.

Summary: Cognitive defusion strategies are a set of techniques that are used in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to change the functions of verbal stimuli. The Word Repeating Technique (WRT) is a commonly used cognitive defusion technique. This study examined whether differences in verbal stimuli used in WRT have different effects on outcome measures. Further, we investigated whether the WRT have different effects on outcome measures from exposure to verbal stimuli. Forty-nine undergraduate and graduate students were randomly assigned to four groups: (a) the Neutral-Defusion condition, in which neutral verbal (e.g., lemon) stimuli were repeated; (b) the Negative-Defusion condition, in which uncomfortable verbal stimuli (e.g., failure) were repeated; (c) the Both-Defusion condition, in which both neutral and uncomfortable verbal stimuli were repeated; and (d) the Verbal-Exposure condition, in which participants were exposed to uncomfortable verbal stimuli. Results suggested that the WRT had different effects on outcome measures from the exposure to the verbal stimuli. Furthermore, the WRT using uncomfortable verbal stimuli did not have long-term effects on outcome measures, while the WRT using neutral verbal stimuli did, specifically in terms of avoidance of verbal stimuli and subjective measure results.

The effectiveness of occupational therapy for children with developmental disabilities has been demonstrated. However, the skills that an expert occupational therapist (OT) should have remain unclear. The present study aimed to determine objective indicators that could indicate the quality of an occupational therapy session. One session each by an expert OT and a novice OT was conducted and analyzed for an autistic child. The duration of each activity conducted during the sessions and the transition time between activities were analyzed for each case. Moreover, the utterances of the child were corded with regard to utterance function. The two cases were different with regard to activity duration, transition time between activities, and the number of times the child shouted to adjust the timing and uttered soliloquies (an autistic-like behavior).

今年度は，急性ストレッサーが習慣的な回避行動への依存に及ぼす影響を検討するための実験実施を計画していた。しかしながら，新型コロナウィルス感染症の拡大に伴い，唾液試料の扱いに留意する必要性や，所属機関への入構制限等の関係から，参加者募集が困難であった。したがって，種々のリスクをふまえて，年度内の実験実施は見合わせた。したがって，実施計画を一部変更し，本研究計画に関連するトピックとして，ストレスと日常的な習慣行動の関係について明らかにするための調査研究を行った。具体的には，日常生活において広範にみられ，一定の問題性を有する行動である過度なスマートフォン使用に着目し，ストレス反応が習慣的なスマートフォン使用を促進する可能性について検証した。一般人口約350名を対象としたインターネット調査を実施した結果，その結果，抑うつや不安などのストレス反応は，「時間をつぶしたいから」といった習慣的なスマートフォンの使用動機の促進を介して，問題のあるスマートフォン使用を促進することを示すデータが得られた。このように，研究計画に関連するトピックについて一定の成果は得られたものの，当初目的について直接的に追求するための研究は今年度も引き続き実施が困難であった。今年度は新型コロナウィルス感染症の拡大状況に鑑み，計画していた実験実施を見送ったが，次年度は状況をみつつ当初計画されていた実験研究の実施を随時随時試みる予定である。

The present study examined the effects of the following two psychological strategies on cortisol recovery following a psychosocial stressor in individuals with social anxiety: distraction strategy and self-compassion strategy. The results indicated that distraction strategy was associated with faster cortisol recovery. In addition, self-compassion strategy was effective for those with high levels of rumination on social situation.

今年度は，社交場面に対するコルチゾール反応が社交不安の維持に寄与する認知的情報処理過程に及ぼす影響を検討するとともに，認知的情報処理過程の操作がコルチゾール反応の回復に及ぼす影響の検討を行った。具体的には，（a）社交場面経験後のコルチゾール反応が社交不安の維持に関与する認知的情報処理過程に及ぼす影響を検討する実験研究，（b）回顧的な情報処理過程に拮抗する認知的方略（ディストラクション方略）への従事が，社交不安を示す者におけるコルチゾール反応の回復に及ぼす影響を検討する実験研究を実施した。まず，(a)の結果として，社交場面を経験した後に明確なコルチゾール反応を示す者においては，そうでない者と比較して，自身の身体反応の知覚や，回顧的思考が促進されやすいことが示唆された。次に，（b）の結果として，ディストラクションへの従事がコルチゾール反応の回復に及ぼす影響の検討は明確にはみられなかったものの，社交場面の経験後に回顧的思考に従事していた者ほどコルチゾール反応の回復はみられにくいという，昨年度得られた知見を再現する知見が得られた。以上の今年度の実績から，心理学的操作によるコルチゾール反応の回復の促進可能性についてはさらなる検討が求められるものの，社交不安を示す者に対する支援において，HPA系の活動について考慮することの有用性，および心理学的な支援によるHPA系の活動の変容可能性を示唆する重要な知見が得られたと考えられる。
