Background: Difficulties in emotion regulation and craving regulation have been linked to eating symptomatology in patients with anorexia nervosa (AN), contributing to the maintenance of their eating disorder. Methods: To investigate clinical and electrophysiological correlates of these processes, 20 patients with AN and 20 healthy controls (HC) completed a computerized task during EEG recording, where they were instructed to down-regulate negative emotions or food craving. Participants also completed self-report measures of emotional regulation and food addiction. The P300 and Late Positive Potential (LPP) ERPs were analysed. Results: LPP amplitudes were significantly smaller during down-regulation of food craving among both groups. Independent of task condition, individuals with AN showed smaller P300 amplitudes compared to HC. Among HC, the self-reported use of re-appraisal strategies positively correlated with LPP amplitudes during emotional regulation task, while suppressive strategies negatively correlated with LPP amplitudes. The AN group, in comparison to the HC group, exhibited greater food addiction, greater use of maladaptive strategies, and emotional dysregulation. Conclusions: Despite the enhanced self-reported psychopathology among AN, both groups indicated neurophysiological evidence of food craving regulation as evidenced by blunted LPP amplitudes in the relevant task condition. Further research is required to delineate the mechanisms associated with reduced overall P300 amplitudes among individuals with AN.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperoleh gambaran umum profile resiliensi pendidik Fakultas Psikologi Unair mela-lui Resilience Quotient Test (RQ). Instrumen yang digunakan adalah Resilience Quotient Test, yang terdiri 56 item. Resilience Quotient Test memuat 7 faktor, yaitu: emotional regulation, impulse control, emphati, optimism, causal analysis, self-efficacy dan reaching-out. Analisis profile resiliensi dilakukan berdasarkan perbandingan nilai rata-rata dari masing-masing faktor dengan nilai acuan yang sudah ditentukan dalam Resilience Quotient Test. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan 2 faktor berada pada kategori di atas rata-rata (impulse control dan optimism), 3 faktor berada pada kategori rata-rata (empathy, causal analysis dan reaching-out) dan 2 faktor berada pada kategori di bawah rata-rata (emotional regulation dan self-efficacy). Dua faktor yang berada pada kategori di atas rata-rata, yaitu impulse control dan optimism belum menunjukkan hasil yang mantap karena tidak didukung oleh faktor lainnya yang berada pada system belief yang sama, yaitu emotional regulation dan self-efficacy. Oleh karena itu, impulse control yang berlawanan dengan emotional regulation serta optimism yang berlawanan dengan self-efficacy perlu dikaji lebih dalam.

The instrument used was the Resilience Quotient Test, which comprised 56 items. The test of the Resilience Quotient included seven factors, namely emotional regulation, impulse control, empathy, optimism, cau-sal analysis, self-efficacy and Reaching-out. The analysis of pro-file resilience was based on comparison of the average value of each factor with a predetermined reference value in the Resi-lience Quotient Test. The results show that two categories of factors are above average (impulse control and optimism), 3 factors are in the average category (empathy, causal analysis and Reaching-out) and the second factor is in the category below the average (emotional regulation and self-efficacy). Two fac-tors that are on the above average categories, namely impulse control and optimism, have not been steady because they are not supported by other factors that are on the same belief system, namely emotional regulation and self-efficacy. There-fore, impulse control as opposed to emotional regulation and optimism as opposed to self-efficacy needs to be studied more deeply. Keywords: profile resilience educators

Abstract: Belis is a marriage tradition that is still a problem in the household. The men who have paid all the belis from the woman's side and made the women their wives, then they treat their wives when they go to the stage of violence. This study aims to determine the resilience of wives of victims of domestic violence due to belis and its impact on wives of victims of domestic violence. This study uses a qualitative research method with a phenomenological approach. The results of this study identified aspects of resilience, namely emotional regulation, impulse control, optimism, problem cause analysis, empathy, self-efficacy, and achievement. The three participants can overcome the problem of domestic violence they experience and are able to survive in situations such as receiving violence from their husband, and from the experiences they have experienced they can overcome problems in their household.Indonesian Abstract.

The purpose of this study was to determine the level of resilience of students at PGSD Campus V Parepare UNM. The research approach used in this study is a quantitative approach. The type of research used is quantitative descriptive. The level of resilience is seen from the seven indicators of ability according to Reivich and Shatte (2002), namely emotional regulation, impulse control, optimism, causal analysis, empathy, self efficacy, reaching out. Based on the results of the statistical descriptive statistical test, it was concluded that the level of resilience of the VSD Parepare UNM campus students on optimism indicators was in the very high category. On the indicators of emotion regulation, impulse control, and self efficacy are in the high category. In the causal analysis and empathy indicators are less high indicators and reaching out indicators are in the low category. although the level is different for each indicator, in general the resilience of students in the PGare V Campus Parepare is in the high category.

AbstractBody-focused repetitive behaviours (BFRBs) including trichotillomania, skin picking, and nail biting, are non-functional self-destructive habits, which have a severe negative impact on everyday functioning. Although BFRBs cause distress, they are maintained by both negative (relief) and positive (stimulation) reinforcement. The emotional regulation (ER) model proposes that people with BFRBs have a general deficit in ER and, as a consequence, engage in BFRBs to alleviate affect and reinforce the behaviour. The current study was designed to explore differences in ER between people with BFRBs and controls to identify specific emotions triggering BFRBs. Forty-eight participants (24 BFRB, 24 controls) completed questionnaires measuring Difficulties in Emotional Regulation (DERS), a Triggers Scale and an Affective Regulation Scale (ARS). Significant differences in people with BFRBs and controls were reported principally on the DERS subscales of lack of emotional clarity, difficulties in impulse control, and access to ER strategies. On the ARS, the BFRB group reported overall difficulty ‘snapping out’ of emotions. The majority of BFRBs were reported to be triggered by anxiety (78%), tension (70%), or boredom (52%). The clinical implication is that ER could be beneficially targeted in therapy for BFRBs.

AbstractFunctional neuroimaging studies in obesity have identified alterations in the connectivity within the reward network leading to decreased homeostatic control of ingestive behavior. However, the neural mechanisms underlying sex differences in the prevalence of food addiction in obesity is unknown. The aim of the study was to identify functional connectivity alterations associated with: (1) Food addiction, (2) Sex- differences in food addiction, (3) Ingestive behaviors. 150 participants (females: N = 103, males: N = 47; food addiction: N = 40, no food addiction: N = 110) with high BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 underwent functional resting state MRIs. Participants were administered the Yale Food Addiction Scale (YFAS), to determine diagnostic criteria for food addiction (YFAS Symptom Count ≥ 3 with clinically significant impairment or distress), and completed ingestive behavior questionnaires. Connectivity differences were analyzed using a general linear model in the CONN Toolbox and images were segmented using the Schaefer 400, Harvard–Oxford Subcortical, and Ascending Arousal Network atlases. Significant connectivities and clinical variables were correlated. Statistical significance was corrected for multiple comparisons at q < .05. (1) Individuals with food addiction had greater connectivity between brainstem regions and the orbital frontal gyrus compared to individuals with no food addiction. (2) Females with food addiction had greater connectivity in the salience and emotional regulation networks and lowered connectivity between the default mode network and central executive network compared to males with food addiction. (3) Increased connectivity between regions of the reward network was positively associated with scores on the General Food Cravings Questionnaire-Trait, indicative of greater food cravings in individuals with food addiction. Individuals with food addiction showed greater connectivity between regions of the reward network suggesting dysregulation of the dopaminergic pathway. Additionally, greater connectivity in the locus coeruleus could indicate that the maladaptive food behaviors displayed by individuals with food addiction serve as a coping mechanism in response to pathological anxiety and stress. Sex differences in functional connectivity suggest that females with food addiction engage more in emotional overeating and less cognitive control and homeostatic processing compared to males. These mechanistic pathways may have clinical implications for understanding the sex-dependent variability in response to diet interventions.

Abstract Although play is ubiquitous throughout the animal kingdom, and in primates especially, the ultimate explanations and proximate mechanisms of play are not well understood. Previous research proposes that primate play may be important for the development of cognitive skills including executive function, emotional regulation, and impulse control, and could help to build social skills and network connections needed in later life. However, many of these hypotheses have not been thoroughly tested. Here, we report observations of novel play behaviour that could provide unique opportunities to explore these hypotheses: young rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) engaging in aquatic social play in a naturalistic setting. Based on our observations, we propose that aquatic play has social elements that make it ideal for testing ultimate explanations of primate play and hypotheses about the cognitive mechanisms that support it.
