“…The YDQ1 (20) criteria were the following: 1) preoccupation with the Internet, 2) staying on-line longer than anticipated, 3) irritability, depression, or moodiness when Internet use is limited, 4) putting a relationship in jeopardy in order to use Internet, 5) a need for increased time spent on-line to achieve the same amount of satisfaction, 6) repeated efforts to curtail Internet use, 7) lying to others about how much time is spent on-line, and 8) using the Internet as a means of escaping from problems of life and for regulating mood. Moreover, in order to better describe the Internet usage patterns, students' Internet attitudes and behaviors were also collected using 4 other criteria proposed by Cantelmi et al (21) as follows: 1) a need to check e-mail before doing something else, 2) fear that life without the Internet would be boring, empty and joyless, 3) preferring the Internet to their partner, and 4) parents' complaints for the amount of time spent on-line.…”

Background: despite growing interest in Internet addiction disorder (Iad) among the high school population, very little is known about the potential risks of the use of the Internet for university students. The present survey aimed to collect information on Internet usage patterns in a group of Italian university students. Methods: the sample comprised 600 Italian university students enrolled in various faculties, in two different universities: catania (n=300; 150 males and 150 females) and Palermo (n=300; 150 males and 150 females). The diagnostic Questionnaire for Iad based on 8 criteria was used to categorize the Internet users. In order to better describe students’ Internet usage patterns, 4 other criteria were added. chi-square test (P<0.05) was applied to examine differences between the two groups of students (catania versus Palermo), and for comparisons between male and female students. Results: respondents were ‘minimal’ (82.5%) or ‘moderate’ (17.5%) Internet users. none of the enrolled university students met the criteria of definite Iad, although a fairly high level of at-risk Internet attitudes and behaviors was found. Finally, some gender differences in Internet attitudes and behaviors were found. Conclusions: the implications drawn from this study, including the adequacy of the available measurement instruments for Iad, are discussed....

“…The large literature on empirical research that has developed in the wider psychotherapeutic field over the past 3 years, after the onset of the pandemic, has also aimed to answer some of these questions; previous empirical studies are instead quite rare ( Cantelmi et al, 2000 ; Backhaus et al, 2012 ; Sucala et al, 2012 ).…”

BackgroundWorldwide, psychotherapists’ clinical experience went through rapid developments with transition to teletherapy during the COVID-19 pandemic. Literature on the use of remote psychoanalysis was not conclusive, leaving the issue of the consequences of the necessary setting alternation open. This study aimed to investigate the psychoanalysts’ experiences of shifting to remote work and then returning to in-person setting, considering the effect of the patients’ attachment styles and personality configurations.MethodSeventy-one analysts of the Italian Psychoanalytic Society were asked to fill out an online survey about patients who found the transition easier and patients who found it more difficult. General questions on therapeutic work, ISTS (Interpretive and Supportive Technique Scale) for interpretive and supportive aspects of technique, WAI-S-TR (Working Alliance Inventory-Short Revised-Therapist) for therapeutic alliance, RQ (Relationship Questionnaire) for attachment style, and PMAI (Prototype Matching of Anaclitic-Introjective Personality Configuration) for personality configurations were administered.ResultsAll of the analysts chose to continue the treatment using audio-visual tools. Patients with difficult transitions had a significantly higher frequency of insecure attachment and a higher score on RQ Dismissing scale than patients with easy transitions. No significant differences were found between the two groups in personality configurations, psychotherapeutic alliance, and psychotherapeutic technique. Moreover, a higher level of therapeutic alliance was positively correlated to RQ Secure scale and was negatively correlated to RQ Dismissing scale. Patients with easy transition both to remote work and back to in-person setting had higher scores of therapeutic alliances than those with difficult transition both to remote work and back to in-person setting.ConclusionOnline psychoanalytic therapy was widely used during the COVID-19 pandemic. Patients with insecure attachment styles had greater difficulties in adapting to setting alternations, thus confirming that insecure attachment is a vulnerability factor not only for psychopathological problems but also for a well-functioning therapeutic collaboration. Patient’s personality configuration did not influence their adaptation to the setting alternation. The supportive and interpretive styles did not undergo significant changes in the transition from in-person setting to remote setting and vice versa, thus suggesting a continuity in the analysts’ “internal setting.”

Una pandemia non è solo un fenomeno medico, ma colpisce gli individui e la società e causa disagi a livello fisico, psicologico, sociale ed economico. Questo perché è un tipo di evento in grado di dimostrare, spesso in modo molto violento, la vulnerabilità e la fragilità dei nostri sistemi sociali e della nostra struttura psicologica, e quanto spesso possano essere inadeguate le nostre capacità di risposta tecnico-scientifica, sociocomunitaria e personale. In questo articolo abbiamo elaborato una rassegna della letteratura al fine di capire le possibili conseguenze psicologiche della pandemia in atto, cercando materiale da tre possibili fonti di informazione: situazioni con caratteristiche simili a quelle della pandemia in atto (es. con distanziamento sociale), eventi epidemici precedenti (es. SARS e MERS) e ricerche svolte direttamente in questo anno sulla pandemia da Sars-CoV-2. Dalle informazioni raccolte è emerso che le conseguenze psicologiche possono essere anche molto gravi (es. Depressione o Disturbo Post-Traumatico), verificarsi in tempi brevi e durare anche molto tempo dopo gli eventi che li hanno prodotti. Inoltre, è emerso come, nonostante le informazioni e la consapevolezza acquisite in situazioni passate o simili, non è stato fatto a sufficienza per prevenire e affrontare tali conseguenze psicologiche avverse.
