A pilot randomized controlled trial with paroxetine for subthreshold PTSD in Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom era veterans
(Psychiatry Research, 2012-12-31)Subthreshold posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with increased risk for suicidality, depression, and functional impairment. We thus conducted a small (N=12) pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) with paroxetine ... -
Affective impact and electrocortical correlates of a psychotherapeutic microintervention: An ERP study of cognitive restructuring
(Psychotherapy Research, 2014-01-01)Objective: Psychotherapy for depression emphasizes techniques that can help individuals regulate their moods. The present study investigated the affective impact and electrocortical correlates of cognitive restructuring, ... -
Brain mechanisms of Change in Addictions Treatment: Models, Methods, and Emerging Findings.
(Curr Addict Rep, 2016-09)Increased understanding of "how" and "for whom" treatment works at the level of the brain has potential to transform addictions treatment through the development of innovative neuroscience-informed interventions. The 2015 ... -
Distress tolerance to auditory feedback and functional connectivity with the auditory cortex.
(Psychiatry research. Neuroimaging, 2018-12)Distress tolerance is the capacity to withstand negative affective states in pursuit of a goal. Low distress tolerance may bias an individual to avoid or escape experiences that induce affective distress, but the neural ... -
Genetic moderation of the association between regulatory focus and reward responsiveness
(Biology of Mood and Anxiety Disorders, 2012) -
Guidelines for cognitive behavioral training within doctoral psychology programs in the United States: report of the Inter-organizational Task Force on Cognitive and Behavioral Psychology Doctoral Education.
(Behav Ther, 2012-12)The Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies initiated an interorganizational task force to develop guidelines for integrated education and training in cognitive and behavioral psychology at the doctoral level ... -
Individual differences in regulatory focus predict neural response to reward.
(Soc Neurosci, 2016-04-30)Although goal pursuit is related to both functioning of the brain's reward circuits and psychological factors, the literatures surrounding these concepts have often been separate. Here, we use the psychological construct ... -
Links Between Communication and Relationship Satisfaction Among Patients With Cancer and Their Spouses: Results of a Fourteen-Day Smartphone-Based Ecological Momentary Assessment Study.
(Frontiers in psychology, 2018-01)Cancer treatment poses significant challenges not just for those diagnosed with the disease but also for their intimate partners. Evidence suggests that couples' communication plays a major role in the adjustment of both ... -
Microinterventions targeting regulatory focus and regulatory fit selectively reduce dysphoric and anxious mood.
(Behav Res Ther, 2015-09)Depression and generalized anxiety, separately and as comorbid states, continue to represent a significant public health challenge. Current cognitive-behavioral treatments are clearly beneficial but there remains a need ... -
Modeling the onset of a depressive episode: A self-regulation perspective.
(Current opinion in psychology, 2021-04-21)Major depression is an episodic disorder which, for many individuals, has its onset in a distinct change of emotional state which then persists over time. The present article explores the utility of combining a dynamical ... -
Neural correlates of emotional processing in depression: changes with cognitive behavioral therapy and predictors of treatment response.
(J Psychiatr Res, 2011-05)Major depressive disorder (MDD) is characterized by the presence of disturbances in emotional processing. However, the neural correlates of these alterations, and how they may be affected by therapeutic interventions, remain ... -
Neural signatures of promotion versus prevention goal priming: fMRI evidence for distinct cognitive-motivational systems.
(Personality neuroscience, 2020-02-03)Regulatory focus theory (RFT) postulates two cognitive-motivational systems for personal goal pursuit: the promotion system, which is associated with ideal goals (an individual's hopes, dreams, and aspirations), and the ... -
Neurobehavioral Mechanisms of Resilience Against Emotional Distress: An Integrative Brain-Personality-Symptom Approach Using Structural Equation Modeling.
(Personality neuroscience, 2018-01)Clarifying individual differences that predict resilience or vulnerability to emotional distress is crucial for identifying etiological factors contributing to affective disturbances, and to promoting emotional well-being. ... -
Neuroimaging for psychotherapy research: Current trends

Regulatory Focus and Anxiety: A Self-Regulatory Model of GAD-Depression Comorbidity.
(Pers Individ Dif, 2011-05-01)The etiology of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), including its high degree of comorbidity with major depressive disorder (MDD), remains a conceptual and clinical challenge. In this article, we discuss the relevance of ... -
Regulatory focus and the p factor: Evidence for self-regulatory dysfunction as a transdiagnostic feature of general psychopathology.
(Journal of psychiatric research, 2021-05)A general psychopathology ('p') factor captures transdiagnostic features of mental illness; however, the meaning of the p factor remains unclear. Regulatory focus theory postulates that individuals regulate goal pursuit ... -
Reprint of ''Using neuroimaging to individualize TMS treatment for depression: Toward a new paradigm for imaging-guided intervention''.
(NeuroImage, 2017-05)The standard clinical technique for using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for major depressive disorder (MDD) is associated with limited efficacy to date. Such limited efficacy may be due to reliance ... -
Self-Discrepancy and Eating Disorder Symptoms Across Eating Disorder Diagnostic Groups.
(Eur Eat Disord Rev, 2016-11)This study examined self-discrepancy, a construct of theoretical relevance to eating disorder (ED) psychopathology, across different types of EDs. Individuals with anorexia nervosa (AN; n = 112), bulimia nervosa (BN; n = 72), ... -
Self-rated amygdala activity: an auto-biological index of affective distress.
