The predictive capacity of the domains and facets was examined. JAK inhibitor The structure reported in the original study was replicated, as were the convergent validity data with respect to the PID-5/SF and the PiCD. Facets were grouped into four factors corresponding to the theoretical domains, including a bipolar Anankastia/Disinhibition factor. High correlations were found with the LPFS-SR, and the patterns of relationships with the IPDE shed light on which aspects of pathological personality contribute most to the 10 traditional personality disorders. In general, validity evidence is provided to support the use of the FFiCD, though four of the 20 facets merit revision so that a simpler factor structure can be obtained.

Subthreshold posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a chronic condition, and despite its clinical importance, few studies have been conducted. We investigated the relationship of subthreshold PTSD with various psychiatric disorders and suicidality in a South Korean general population.

A total of 5,102 respondents, aged at least 18 years, completed face-to-face interviews using the Korean version of the Composite International Diagnostic Interview and questionnaires for lifetime suicidal ideation, plans, and attempts. Subthreshold PTSD was defined as at least one symptom in each of the three symptom clusters (Criteria B, C, and D) and a symptom duration of ≥ 1 month (Criterion E).

The lifetime prevalence of subthreshold PTSD (2.5%) was higher than that of PTSD (1.5%). After adjusting for sociodemographic factors, subthreshold PTSD was significantly associated with nicotine use disorders, major depressive disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), generalized anxiety disorder, and specific phobia. Among psychiatric disorders, the odds ratio for OCD was notably high. Subthreshold PTSD was associated with increased suicidal ideation (adjusted

There is a relatively wide consensus that veterans' posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) may lead to the development of secondary traumatization (ST) among their spouses. However, there is limited knowledge about the way the ST develops over time, as well as its predictors. The current longitudinal study examined ST trajectories among spouses of Israeli war veterans with PTSS, as well as the contribution of veterans' PTSS and wives' assessment of veterans' PTSS to these trajectories.

Data were collected from both spouses at 3 time points, 30, 35-37, and 42 years after the 1973 Yom Kippur War (2003, 2008-2010, and 2015, respectively).

Using multiple-group Latent Class Growth Analysis (LCGA), we identified 4 distinct ST trajectories. The majority of wives (68%) were in the resilient group, 12% were in the recovery group, approximately 10% were in the chronic PTSS group and another 10% were in the delayed-onset group. Multinomial regressions revealed that veterans' PTSS predicted the 4 different trajectories among their wives. In addition, wives in the recovery and chronic groups who perceived their veteran husbands' PTSS to be higher also reported higher ST.

This study highlights the complexity of the development of ST trajectories over time. Findings supports the idea of PTSS contagion, and reveals the contributing role of both objective and perceived levels of veterans' PTSS in ST. Therefore, implementing interventions aimed at alleviating both individual and couple-level distress may be warranted. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved).

This process has implications for prosociality. We supported our theoretical model in 14 studies (N = 4,438) using distinct awe manipulations or measures, employing different assessments of authentic-self pursuit, testing participants both in laboratory and field settings, and involving samples from both collectivistic and individualistic cultures. In Studies 1-2 (N = 828), dispositional awe was positively associated with authentic-self pursuit and induced awe motivated authentic-self pursuit. In Studies 2-9 (N = 2,461), dispositional awe was positively associated with, and induced awe strengthened, authentic-self pursuit via self-transcendence. These effects were independent of pride and happiness. In Study 10 (N = 281), self-smallness (i.e., a sense of self as small and insignificant), albeit induced by awe, did not account for the unique effects of awe on authentic-self pursuit via self-transcendence. Finally, in Studies 11-14 (N = 868), awe-induced authentic-self pursuit was linked with higher general prosociality, but lower inauthentic prosociality. The findings invite a reexamination of awe's relation with the self, while highlighting the complexity and intricacy of that relation.

How that learning unfolds during training, however, is not well understood. We sought to measure the relationship between the amount of TI training and the resulting response accuracy in 4 rhesus macaques using seven-item lists. The training conditions included the absolute minimal case of presenting each of the six adjacent pairs only once prior to testing. We also tested transfer to nonadjacent pairs with 24 and 114 training trials. Because performance during and after small amounts of training is expected to be near chance levels, we developed a descriptive statistical model to estimate potentially subtle learning effects in the presence of much larger random response variability and systematic bias. These results suggest that subjects learned serial order in an incremental fashion. Thus, rather than performing transitive inference by a logical process, serial learning in rhesus macaques proceeds in a manner more akin to a statistical inference, with an initial uncertainty about list position that gradually becomes more accurate as evidence accumulates.

This suboptimal preference has been attributed to the combination of a biased attraction to the S+ and ignoring the S-. We evaluated the inhibitory properties of the S- in three experiments to investigate its role in suboptimal choice. In Experiment 1, pigeons were trained in an autoshaping procedure with the four terminal link stimuli of the suboptimal choice task; S+ was continuously reinforced, S3 and S4 were each partially reinforced on a 50% schedule, and S- was never reinforced. Summation tests showed that S- acquired inhibitory properties during training. Experiment 2 replicated the summation tests after training on the full suboptimal choice procedure and found that S- inhibition was not attributable to external inhibition. In Experiment 3, pigeons were trained on the suboptimal choice procedure and the development of inhibition was assessed throughout training. An analysis of individual differences across birds revealed that the response rates to S- were negatively correlated with the strength of suboptimal preference, both within subject as each bird acquired suboptimal preference, and across subjects once all birds had reached asymptotic levels of suboptimal preference. Thus, rather than ignoring the S-, we found evidence that birds attended to S- as an inhibitory stimulus. Future models explaining performance in the suboptimal choice task should consider inhibition to the S- as a factor in suboptimal choice.

Traditional indexes used to estimate interrater agreement (such as Cohen's j) simply count the number of observed agreements and correct them by removing chance agreements. In this article, we introduce a new theoretical framework for the evaluation of interrater agreement based on the possibility of adjusting the observed classifications conducted by the raters. This framework refers to the introduction and formalization of two concepts involved in the classification task (a) the belonging measure of an object to a category and (b) the rater's belonging threshold, which is the minimally sufficient value of the belonging measure at which the rater will classify an object into a category. These factors are ignored by traditional indexes for interrater agreement, though their role may be decisive. Two Bayesian models are tested through a Monte Carlo simulation study to evaluate the accuracy of the new methodology for estimating raters' threshold and the actual degree of agreement between two independent raters. Results show that the computation of traditional indexes for interrater agreement on the adjusted classifications leads to a more accurate estimation of the experts' actual agreement. This improvement is greater when a large difference between raters' belonging thresholds is observed; when the difference is small, the proposed method provides similar results to those obtained in the simple observed classifications. Finally, an empirical application to the field of psychological assessment is presented to show how the method could be used in practice. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved).
