<p class="apa">Problem-based Learning (PBL) approach has been widely used in various disciplines since it is claimed to improve students’ soft skills. However, empirical supports on the effect of PBL on problem solving skills have been lacking and anecdotal in nature. This study aimed to determine the effect of PBL approach on students’ problem solving skills using a quasi-experimental non-equivalent group pretest–posttest design. Fifty management students from a premier Technical University in Malaysia were assigned to experimental and control groups. In the experimental group, students were given four problems to be solved and their solutions of the problems given were assessed in terms of their accuracy and quality. Students in the control group received conventional classroom instructional design. Results indicate that students in the experimental group have better problem solving skills (<em>z</em>: -4.220, <em>p</em>: 0.001 for accuracy and <em>z</em>: -2.594, <em>p</em>: 0.009 for quality) compared to those who were not exposed to the PBL approach. This finding substantiates the use of PBL as an effective instructional tool to improve students’ problem solving abilities.</p>

The article presents data on the study of emotional state characteristics and coping strategies of adolescents in the stressful situation of oncohematological diseases treatment. Two equalized by socio-demographic and clinical parameters groups of patients 11-18 were examined. The experimental group consisted of 28 adolescents undergoing treatment with hemopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) (M = 14.25, SD = 2.20, M: 57.1%, F: 42.9%). The control group consisted of 30 adolescents undergoing chemotherapy (M = 13.71, SD = 2.12, M: 53.3%, F: 46.7%). The psychological state of adolescents in the course of treatment by НSCТ, in comparison with the state of adolescents of the control group, which is characterized by a significantly higher level of distress and anxiety. Significant differences in the use of coping strategies with stress in patients of the two groups were obtained. Adolescents of the experimental group use a less extensive repertoire of productive coping strategies, often use such an ineffective strategy as "discharge" These differences may be associated with less availability, as well as an increase in depletion of various coping resources under special treatment conditions by the НSCТ. The results of the study confirmed that НSCТ is objectively and subjectively more stressful, which indicates the need for additional monitoring of both the psychological state and the need for psychological care for patients in this group, the development of specialized programs for psychological support for transplantation.

The purpose of this research was to verify, in a group of psychology students, whether mindfulness training in conjunction with the individual’s level of self-regulation behavior would produce a change in the use of coping strategies. A total of 38 students participated in this study, with one experimental group and one control group, in a randomized controlled trial. Observation of the experimental group revealed a significant decrease in specific emotion-focused, negative coping strategies (preparing for the worst, resigned acceptance, emotional venting, and isolation), and a significant increase in specific problem-focused, positive coping (positive reappraisal and firmness, self-talk, help for action), in combination with students’ existing low-medium-high level of self-regulation. The importance and usefulness of mindfulness techniques in Higher Education is discussed, in conjunction with differences in university students’ level of self-regulation behavior.

BackgroundRelatives’ coping strategies – an essential element for the recovery of patients with severe mental disorders – are grouped in problem-oriented and emotion-focused. The former include practical strategies to deal with the stressful situation and are associated with a better long-term outcome of patients and relatives; the latter are psychologically driven and are associated with a worse outcome. It has been reported that psychoeducational family intervention (PFI) can improve problem-oriented coping strategies, while few data are available on relatives of patients with bipolar disorder.ObjectivesTo assess the impact of the PFI on promotion of problem-oriented coping strategies adopted by relatives of patients with bipolar I disorder.MethodsThis study was conducted in 11 Italian mental health centers. Patients and their relatives were allocated to the experimental group receiving PFI or to the control group (waiting list). Before starting the intervention and at the end of the PFI, coping strategies were assessed using the family coping questionnaire.ResultsOf the 139 recruited families, 72 families were allocated to the experimental group and 67 to the control group. Relatives from the experimental group reported a significant improvement in problem-oriented coping strategies, such as positive communication (P < .01) and searching for information (P < .05). On the other hand, a reduction in collusion (P < .0001), avoidance (P < .01) and resignation (P < .001) were found at the end of the intervention.ConclusionsPFI is effective in promoting the coping strategies in relatives of patients with bipolar I disorder and it should be given routinely in mental health centers.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract Background: Today, due to the development of advanced fetal screening techniques, termination for fetal abnormalities has increased, and has caused significant grief for women which can lead to long-term mental disorders. Self-help intervention with web guide may help provide appropriate education and counseling to women. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the effect of social network education on resilience and coping strategies of women abortion due to fetal malformation.Methods: This clinical trial studied two groups of 100 qualified pregnant women with abnormal fetuses who referred to Tehran Forensic Medicine Center. Randomly assigned into a randomized blocks list as two intervention group and routine group. Sampling was done by random allocation method by Excel software and blinding in the statistical analysis stage and was done as single-blind. The intervention in the experimental group was done as education through mobile social software (Soroush) and for 6 weeks and three times a week. The control group received routine care and after the second test, the content of the network education was also given to them. Resilience and coping strategies were evaluated before, immediately and three months after the intervention using the Persian version of Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-2003) and coping strategies (COPE-1989), respectively. Analysis of variance with repeated measures of ANOVA was used for statistical analysis.Results: The mean resilience score in both control and test groups increased significantly (P<0.001) which can indicate the effect of time, but the study of the effect of group over time indicated that in the resilience variable there was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.001). The simultaneous effect and group on the resilience variable was significant (p<0.001) and the mean variation of resilience score in the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group (p<0.001). The mean score of problem-focused coping strategies in the experimental group increased significantly during 12 weeks (p<0.001) but no significant difference was observed in the control group (p=0.218). Regarding the emotion-focused strategy, a significant decrease was observed in the experimental group (p<0.001) but in the control group there was a significant increase (P=0.001). There was a significant decrease in the avoidance strategy in the experimental group (p<0.001); there was no significant changes in the control group (p=0.066) and the simultaneous effect of group and time in all coping strategies was significant (P<0.001).Conclusion: Social network education leads to enhanced resilience and greater use of problem-focused coping strategies in women after abortion due to fetal malformation and is effective on improving women’s health by reducing emotion-focused and avoidance-focused coping strategies. Low cost and fast access to virtual mobile networks allow women to access educational content after abortion due to fetal malformation.Registration in clinical trial: it is registered in the Thai Clinical Trial Registry (TCTR) under the number TCTR20200519001.CONSORT : This study follows the CONSORT guidelines.
