Body dissatisfaction (BD) is highly prevalent among young females and is associated with negative mental health outcomes. Social anxiety (SA) has been identified as an important determinant of BD; however, potential factors underlying SA-related BD remain unstudied. Research indicates that intolerance of uncertainty (IU), the tendency to respond negatively to uncertainty, may be critical for developing and maintaining SA.

Sinds het baanbrekende onderzoek van Lieven Saerens over de Jodenvervolging in België is sprak van 'de Antwerpse specificiteit'. Volgens Saerens werd 65 tot 68 procent van de Antwerps-Joodse bevolking gedeporteerd. Deze cijfers liggen hoger dan het Belgische gemiddelde van 45 procent en gaan sterk in de richting van het Nederlandse deportatiecijfer van 75 procent. Waaruit bestaat de Antwerpse specificiteit en waarop zijn bovenstaande cijfers gebaseerd?

De Bond van Nederlandse Militaire Oorlogs- en dienst-slachtoffers (BNMO) zet zich al decennialang in voor veteranen, dienstslachtoffers en hun naasten. 

The aim of the current study was to evaluate the impact of a 6-week gratitude intervention for people with low to moderate well-being and moderate symptomatology of depression and anxiety up to 6 months follow-up. 217 Dutch adults were randomly assigned to one of three conditions: a 6-week gratitude intervention, a 6-week self-kindness intervention as an active control condition and a waitlist control condition. Participants completed online assessments on well-being, depression, anxiety and gratitude at baseline, post-test, 6 weeks and 6 months follow-up.

Deze kaart bevat de belangrijkste bevindingen van de studie Syrische statushouders op weg in Nederland: de ontwikkeling van hun positie en leefsituatie. In deze studie kijken we naar de positie en leefsituatie van Syriërs die tussen 1 januari 2014 en 1 juli 2016 een verblijfsvergunning asiel hebben gekregen en hun partner en kinderen die als nareiziger of in het kader van gezinshereniging naar Nederland zijn

Background

Immigrants from low- and middle-income countries who have settled in high-income countries show higher risks of depression in comparison with host populations. The risks are associated with adverse social conditions. Indecisive results have been reported on the depression risks of the offspring of immigrant populations.

Objective

To assess the prevalence of depressed mood in immigrant offspring relative to the host population and to analyse whether that risk is explained by social conditions.

Recognizing the growing trend toward learning from the Holocaust to prevent further atrocities, this survey looks at comparative initiatives from all over the world.
Both the programs included and the literature listed in this overview shed light on the various ways the Holocaust is compared or contextualized in multiple settings and both contribute as well to ongoing discussions in the areas of education, remembrance, and research.

Objectives

During a pandemic, healthcare workers (HCWs) are essential to the health system response. Based on our knowledge, little information is available regarding the psychosocial impact on HCWs or interventions for supporting them during pandemics. Therefore, the study aimed to assess available literature on perceived stress and psychological responses to influenza pandemics in HCWs and identify implications for healthcare practice and future research.

Methods

Our study systematically reviews articles about the prevalence of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) among children and adolescents, aiming to evaluate its prevalence after earthquakes and floods.Three databases (PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science) were searched for articles published from 1981 to 2019 containing information on PTSD prevalence among survivors of earthquakes and floods. Articles with insufficient data on the prevalence of PTSD or without any available full-text were excluded.
