Emotion-regulation strategies across psychopathology: A meta-analytic review.

Interventions based on training in mindfulness skills are becoming increasingly popular. Mindfulness involves intentionally bringing one's attention to the internal and external experiences occurring in the present moment, and is often taught through a variety of meditation exercises. This review summarizes conceptual approaches to mind-fulness and empirical research on the utility of mindfulness-based interventions. Meta-analytic techniques were incorporated to facilitate quantification of findings and comparison across studies. Although the current empirical literature includes many methodological flaws, findings suggest that mindfulness-based interventions may be helpful in the treatment of several disorders. Methodologically sound investigations are recommended in order to clarify the utility of these interventions.

Reclassifying the unique inhibitory properties of social-support-figures: A roadmap for exploring prepared fear suppression

Early-life adversity (ELA) has been linked to higher depression risk across the life span and chronic inflammatory conditions that contribute to earlier mortality. In this study, we characterized innate immune responses to acute social stress in a community sample of adolescents (mean age = 13.9 ± 1.6 years; 46.4% female) as a potential pathway linking ELA and depression pathogenesis.Parents reported their child's exposure to 9 ELAs, and adolescents participated in the Trier Social Stress Test for Children, with blood collected immediately before and then at 60 and 90 minutes thereafter. Overall, 65 adolescents had complete data for analysis of stress-induced changes in gene expression and 84 adolescents had complete data for circulating inflammatory markers.Relative to adolescents exposed to no ELA (11.9%) or low ELA (ELA = 1-3; 67.9%), those exposed to high ELA (ELA = 4+; 20.2%) showed larger stress-associated increases in expression of both proinflammatory and innate antiviral gene transcripts in circulating blood. Consistent with a potential mediating role of sympathetic nervous system activity, promoter-based bioinformatics analyses implicated CREB transcription factor activity in structuring observed gene expression differences. These effects were accompanied by a smaller initial but protracted increase in circulating interleukin 6 in adolescents with high ELA.Results are consistent with the hypothesis that ELA may enhance cellular and gene regulatory reactivity to stress, which may, in turn, increase vulnerability to depression and other inflammation-related disease processes.
