“…Although one of the secondary caretakers was a grandmother, we report on secondary caretakers as “fathers”. Compared to the sample analyzed in our previous study (Van der Veen‐Mulders et al, ), we could not analyze data of five families because they failed to provide T2 ratings.…”

“…As expected, and also in line with previous studies (Ghuman et al, ), we found both fathers and mothers in the clinical sample reporting more inadequate parenting skills and lower parenting sense of competence before parent training than parents of children in the nonclinical sample. In a previous paper we had already reported that our behavioural parent training decreased disruptive behaviours (Van der Veen‐Mulders et al, ).…”

“…In our previous study (Van der Veen‐Mulders, Hoekstra, Nauta, & van den Hoofdakker, ), we reported on the effectiveness of behavioural parent training for preschool children with disruptive behaviours, and on parental predictors of response. Both mother and father reported child behaviour problems decreased significantly after treatment.…”

Objective: To investigate whether changes in parenting after behavioural parent training in routine clinical care are associated with improvements in preschool children's disruptive behaviours. Method:We evaluated changes after parent training in maternal and paternal selfreports of parental discipline practices parenting sense of competence, and parents' ratings of child disruptive behaviours in parents of 63 children, with a one group pretest-posttest design. We also compared parenting parameters in this clinical sample with a nonclinical sample (n = 121).Results: Mothers' self-reports of parental discipline practices and parenting sense of competence significantly improved after behavioural parent training. Less over-reactivity in both mothers and fathers was associated with fewer disruptive behaviours in children. After parent training, mothers' ratings of their discipline techniques did not differ anymore from those in the nonclinical sample. Conclusion:Positive changes in parental discipline practices, particularly less overreactive parental behaviours, were related to a decrease of disruptive child behaviours.

“…Although the emotional consequences of homicidal loss evidently merit clinical attention, options for preventive and curative treatments are scarce. In existing literature on the treatment of traumatic loss, grief- and trauma-focused interventions are described, as well as interventions integrating working mechanisms of both ( 23 , 24 ). For the treatment of PTSD, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) are implemented in treatment guidelines ( 25 ).…”

Homicidal bereavement puts survivors at risk of developing a broad range of lasting and severe mental health problems. Previous research has often relied on relatively small and homogenous samples. Still, little is known about what factors influence the expression of symptoms following homicidal bereavement. Preventive and curative treatments often do not consider the complex coherence between the emotional, judicial, financial, and societal challenges that likely arise following a homicide. Despite the severity of its consequences on mental health, no gold standard for the preventative and curative treatment of mental health issues in homicide survivors exists. We aimed to introduce a time-limited, traumatic grief-focused outreaching model of care designed specifically for homicide survivors, and to examine its potential effectiveness. Furthermore, we aimed to investigate what factors influence the severity of mental health problems and response to treatment. In the current study, self-reported data on five different outcome measures, namely, symptoms of posttraumatic stress, prolonged grief, depression, anxiety, and functional impairment were available from 929 homicidally bereaved treatment receiving adults. We used Latent Growth Modeling to analyze our repeated measures data and to classify individuals into distinct groups based on individual response patterns. Results showed that the current model of care is likely to be effective in reducing mental health complaints following homicidal bereavement. Having a history of mental illness, being younger of age and female, and having lost either a child or spouse consistently predicted greater symptom severity and functional impairment at baseline. For change in symptom severity and functional impairment during treatment, having a history of mental illness was the only consistent predictor across all outcomes. This study was limited by its reliance on self-reported data and cross-sectional design without a control group. Future prospective, longitudinal research across different cultures is needed in order to

“…Initial trials of CSE showed broad support for reducing overall symptom severity, and to some degree voices ( Tarrier et al, 1993a , Tarrier et al, 1993b ). More recently, the approach has been confirmed as feasible as a four-session model specifically targeting voices ( Hayward et al, 2018 ; Paulik et al, 2018 ).…”

Common approaches to the psychological treatment of distressing voice hearing experiences, such as cognitive behavioural therapy, aim to promote more adaptive cognitive, emotional and behavioural responses to these experiences. Digital technologies such as smartphones show promise for supporting and enhancing these treatments by linking immediate therapeutic settings to the context of daily life. Two promising technologies include ecological momentary assessment and intervention (EMA/I), which may offer a means of advanced assessment and support in daily life, and inform the tailoring of interventions to suit individual needs. In this study, a highly novel intervention approach was developed involving four face-to-face sessions with a psychologist blended with EMA/I between sessions in order to improve coping with distressing voice hearing experiences. The authors describe the background and development of this approach along-side a single case illustration, which supported feasibility and acceptability. This study details how digital technologies such as EMA/I may be used in future as clinical tools to enhance standard psychological treatments and clinical care of people with persisting and distressing experiences.

Preschool children's response to behavioural parent training and parental predictors of outcome in routine clinical care

Abstract: BPT under routine care conditions clearly improves disruptive behaviours in preschool children. Mothers who consider themselves as inadequate in disciplining and mothers whose partners do not consume high levels of alcohol report the largest improvements.
