“…These patients were recruited after the exclusion of hemorrhage within 14 h 15 min (meantime). The authors used the Vertical Visual Analogue Scale [ 85 ] and State–Trait Anxiety Inventory by Spielberger [ 86 ] for the psychological evaluation of the patients. Each patient was asked 20 questions with four different answers.…”

Stress is a known contributor to several life-threatening medical conditions and a risk factor for triggering acute cardiovascular events, as well as a root cause of several social problems. The burden of stress is increasing globally and, with that, is the interest in developing effective stress-monitoring solutions for preventive and connected health, particularly with the help of wearable sensing technologies. The recent development of miniaturized and flexible biosensors has enabled the development of connected wearable solutions to monitor stress and intervene in time to prevent the progression of stress-induced medical conditions. This paper presents a review of the literature on different physiological and chemical indicators of stress, which are commonly used for quantitative assessment of stress, and the associated sensing technologies.

“…Direct behavioral observation is a type of functional assessment that can yield frequency and intensity data for highly specific behaviors (Iwata, Kahng, Wallace, & Lindberg, 2000; O'Brien & Haynes, 1993). Observational instruments especially designed for assessing severe mental illness in treatment environments have been developed by Gordon Paul and his colleagues (Paul, 1988a, 1988b).…”

Improving the quality of life of individuals with severe mental illness has been the focus of considerable research. With advances in treatments for severe mental illness, particularly in psychiatric rehabilitation, evaluating outcomes has become increasingly important. Given the complex and multidimensional nature of severe mental illness, outcome evaluation of psychiatric rehabilitation is particularly difficult. This article addresses issues in evaluating psychiatric rehabilitation outcomes, including key outcome domains, selection of methods and measures, and meaningful use of results. Continuing conceptual and methodological issues are discussed. Also, future directions are explored, including evaluating multidimensional treatment effects and interactions and building an integrated understanding of all of the outcomes involved in psychiatric rehabilitation. 1 The term psychiatric rehabilitation may be confused with psychosocial rehabilitation, and the two are sometimes used interchangeably. In practice, both are sometimes used as a contraction of biopsychosocial rehabilitation. However, psychosocial rehabilitation sometimes specifically refers to a particular type of program, associated with specific prototypes, such as Fountain House in New York and Thresholds in Chicago (McEvoy, Scheifler, & Frances, 1999).

“…Functional behavioral analysis (FBA) is a technique for determining what factors control a specific behavior of interest (Iwata, Kahng, Wallace, & Lindberg, 2000; O'Brian & Haynes, 1993; O'Neill et al, 1997). It originated in the 1960s as a technological application of learning theory.…”

This article describes 2 important practice considerations affirmed in the U.S. Supreme Court's Sell v. United States (2002) decision: (a) the importance of providing least restrictive services prior to interventions that violate patients' liberty interests, and (b) contextual and environmental factors may be considered in clinical determinations of dangerousness. The psychological treatment of behavior disorders fall within the purview of least restrictive or intrusive interventions compared with the involuntary administration of psychoactive medications. To legitimately comply with the least restrictive criterion, the provision of psychological services is essential. This long-held criterion is rarely acknowledged today as providers use restricted service arrays and attempt to resolve complex and co-occurring behavior problems with medications and restraints. Less restrictive psychological interventions are required for effective treatment of challenging behaviors. A 2nd significant implication lies in the court's affirmation that it is legitimate to consider contextual factors such as history and current environmental conditions in determining dangerousness.
