“…I n the past few decades, the topic of mindfulness has become several researchers' choice of exploration (Langer, 1989;Shapiro et al, 2006;Brown and Ryan, 2003;Wielgosz et al, 2018;Dahlgaard et al, 2019;Atkinson and Wade, 2019). Atkinson and Wade (2019) noted that mindfulness has been studied from various perspectives like; spiritual, religious, first person and third person.…”

“…Atkinson and Wade (2019) noted that mindfulness has been studied from various perspectives like; spiritual, religious, first person and third person. It has also been studied under various disciplines like; psychology, health science and neuroscience (Brown and Ryan, 2003;Dahlgaard et al, 2019). However, despite its rising popularity, empirical research pertaining to mindfulness is scarce (Andrews et al, 2014;Dane and Brummel, 2014;Glomb et al, 2011;Hülsheger et al, 2013).…”

The purpose of the study was to explain the possible outcomes of mindfulness. The research studied the relationship between mindfulness and employee voice behaviour, affective commitment, job satisfaction, and burnout. The research added one contextual variable, high-performance work system, as a moderator. The sample of the study was faculty members of higher education (management) schools. The sample size was 1092 faculty members. Moderated mediation analysis was used to analyse the data and understand the positive as well as the negative relationship of high-performance work system. Findings indicated the significant positive relationship of mindfulness with employee voice behaviour, affective commitment, and job satisfaction. The research found a negative relationship between mindfulness and burnout. The moderated mediation analysis revealed the significant interaction effect of high-performance work system and mindfulness on consequence variables. To conclude the author found that the mindfulness practice is important for faculty members of higher education. Further the research concluded that mindfulness may enhance employee voice behaviour, which in turn increases satisfaction and commitment and reduces burnout. Such relationship is possible under high performance work system context.

“…Since their early roots, health psychology, and behavioral medicine, as fields of study and areas of practice, have grown in both breadth and depth. Whether it is the latest popular press article about the gut-brain axis (e.g., Abdel-Haq et al, 2019), mindfulness (e.g., Dahlgaard et al, 2019), or dental anxiety (e.g., Zinke et al, 2019), psychological processes have a demonstrable role in health and well-being (and vice-versa). Indeed, the field of health psychology is a burgeoning area of research with direct clinical applications.…”

A Framework for Understanding the Role of Psychological Processes in Disease Development, Maintenance, and Treatment: The 3P-Disease Model

et al. 2019

Health psychology is multidisciplinary, with researchers, practitioners, and policy makers finding themselves needing at least some level of competency in a variety of areas from psychology to physiology, public health, and others. Given this multidisciplinary ontology, prior attempts have been made to establish a framework for understanding the role of biological, psychological, and socio-environmental constructs in disease development, maintenance, and treatment. Other models, however, do not explain how factors may interact and develop over time. The aim here was to apply and adapt the 3P model, originally developed and used in the treatment of insomnia, to couch the biopsychosocial model in a way that explains how diseases develop, are maintained, and can be treated. This paper outlines the role of predisposing, precipitating, and perpetuating factors in disease states and conditions (the 3Ps) and provides examples of how this model may be adapted and applied to a number of health-related diseases or disorders including chronic pain, gastrointestinal disorders, oral disease, and heart disease. The 3P framework can aid in facilitating a multidisciplinary, theoretical approach and way of conceptualizing the study and treatment of diseases in the future.

“…Brain imaging research has tended to provide evidence that an overactive right hemisphere is involved in persistent posttraumatic stress (Engdahl et al, 2010;Engels et al, 2007;Lanius, Frewen, Tursich, Jetly, & McKinnon, 2015;Rauch et al, 2006). Underarousal of the left prefrontal/frontal cortex has been demonstrated in depression (Davidson & Hugdahl, 1996;Herrington et al, 2010).…”

“…The current use of counteractive procedures in the treatment of PTSD includes extinction (Helpman et al, 2016) and cognitive-behavioral strategies (Monson & Shnaider, 2014). These procedures are designed to prevent symptom arousal by arranging for a more desired state of mind to emerge as an outcome; similar interventions would include the teaching of relaxation skills to counteract anxiety (Dahlgaard et al, 2019).…”

Remediation of PTSD in a Combat Veteran: A Case Study

The posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) condition is a systemic neuroinflammatory state that emanates from a failure to recover from traumatic occurrence(s). Major complications associated with PTSD include problems with impulse control and issues related to verbal and physical outbursts of anger and rage. The Veteran's Administration (VA) projects a post-9/11 veteran population of around 3.5 million by 2019. Emotional problems are prevalent among combat service members and veterans with about half of the group suffering from various symptoms of PTSD. Three in four among them report they are reliving traumas in the form of flashbacks and nightmares. Current mental health treatments have not fully remediated the negative impact that results from PTSD. We present a case study of a novel and transformative treatment approach called Reconsolidation Enhancement by Stimulation of Emotional Triggers (RESET) Therapy. The intervention uses binaural sound to unlock the memory reconsolidation process, thereby releasing the emotional component of experienced trauma. RESET Therapy offers a compelling therapeutic adjunct to the practicing biofeedback/neurofeedback clinician, who is under constant pressure to deliver interventions that are rapid, tolerable, and cost-effective. Additionally, the treatment spares the therapist from repeated exposures to the raw limbic activity of traumatized patients, thereby minimizing the potential for vicarious traumatization.
