The aim of this research was to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of an Innovative Intervention Program to treat depression, by combining emotion-focused cognitive therapy with acupuncture. A total of 30 patients, suffering from depression was selected and randomly assigned to two groups: the experimental (15), who received the innovative intervention program; and a control group (15), who just continued to receive their usual care. Three psychological tests (BDI-II, Zung SDS, and HRSD) were administered to both groups both before and after the implementation of the program. The pre-test and post-test scores of the experimental group showed significant differences (p=0.000) at 0.05 levels. The scores of the control group and experimental groups showed significant differences (P=0.000 or 0.001) in the post-test. This Innovative Intervention Program (CEFCTA) had a significant influence in reducing the level of depression for adult sufferers.Keywords

Bipolar II is a mood disorder characterized by shift in mood, energy and activity level due to remitting/relapsing episodes of hypomania and major depression. In general, on-going depressive symptoms in the bipolar patients are widely connected with impairment in various realms such as academic or occupational functioning, duties at home, psychological well-being and interpersonal relationship with family members, friends, and others. Consequently, the patients suffer from poor quality of life. Recognizing the need of a holistic adjunct therapeutic intervention for women with bipolar II disorder who are suffering from enduring depressive symptoms, the researcher developed the 'Holistic Quality of Life Intervention' (HQLI) integrating the Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Theory and Stress-Buffering Model of Social Support. The intervention was subjected to expert's validation by seven inter-disciplinary experts and a feasibility test was conducted with ten women diagnosed with bipolar II disorder who were in moderate level of depression and poor quality of life. The intervention was positively received by the participants and the results of the pilot study displayed significant decrease in depression and increase in quality of life among the participants.Keywords

The results were analyzed using Paired Sample t test and MANOVA and the Partial Eta Squared value indicated the extent of its effect. The study proved that the 'Holistic Quality of Life Intervention (HQLI)' is an etfective tool for alleviating depression and enhancing quality of life among women having bipolar disorder.Keywords

The present study observed the possible predictive effect of perceived stress on the depressive symptoms of wives of alcohol-dependent persons. Participants of the study involved 204 selected wives of alcohol-dependent persons from the 20 Kudumbasree groups (Women self-help group in Kerala, India) who completed the Perceived stress scale and Depressive Anxiety Stress Scale that measured perceived stress and depressive symptoms respectively. The results of the study showed a significantly positive relationship between perceived stress and depressive symptoms. Moreover, a regression analysis of the data showed that a significant variance of 60.3% of the depressive symptoms. The present study clearly gave the idea of perceived stress reduction can lessen the development of depressive symptoms among the participants. Thus, the present study recommends the need for a psychotherapeutic intervention program to be developed that can reduce perceived stress and depressive symptoms among wives of alcohol-dependent persons.Keywords

Alcohol addiction is a family ailment that strains the family to that extreme point of family break up and affects negatively the growth of family life. It also affects negatively psychological and physical health. It destabilizes family income, oneness among the family members and the family dynamics. Women are worried and affected by their partner's drinking. The negative effect of alcohol destroys the wives of alcoholics, as it to the alcohol addicts. Various stressful experiences due to partner's alcoholism are reflected in the form of psychological problems especially the depressive symptoms among wives of alcoholics. The negative emotional state and thought patterns force them to perceive the life experience as more stressful. This makes a marked effect on their physical, psychological, marital and social life. Recognizing the need to help the wives of alcoholics who have the perceived stress and depressive symptoms, the researcher developed Cognitive based Acceptance Program (CAP) integrating Transactional Cognitive appraisal theory, Stress buffering model and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) model. The program was evaluated by six inter-disciplinary experts. After words, a feasibility test was conducted with ten wives of alcoholics who have high perceived stress and moderate depressive symptoms. The intervention was positively accepted by the wives of alcoholics and the results of the pilot study revealed a significant decrease in perceived stress and depressive symptoms among the participants.Keywords

HIV is a major global public health issue today. The day to day confrontations of various stressful situations in the lives of the people living with HIV drag them into the shadows of hopelessness and meaninglessness. Perceiving this scenario, the researcher aimed to develop an intervention to enhance the meaning in life and to alleviate death anxiety among the adult men living with HIV and to pilot test its viability and usability in the clinical practice. The study made use of The Meaning in Life Questionnaire (MLQ), and the Templer Death Anxiety Scale (DAS) to assess levels of the meaning of life and death anxiety the adult men living with HIV face. For the better understanding of the situation the researcher conducted need-assessment survey, in-depth interviews and focus group discussions. Based on these assessment procedures, the researcher developed a nine-modular intervention program, CBT based acceptance commitment logo-therapeutic meaning management program (CALM), an intervention based on the meaning management theory to enhance meaning of life and to alleviate death anxiety among the adult men living with HIV. The content of CALM was validated by six inter-disciplinary experts and it proved to be excellent. The pilot was tested among ten adult men living with HIV. CALM showed large effect of enhancement of the meaning in life and decrease in death anxiety of the participants in the study.Keywords

The most complex health-relevant personality trait, neuroticism involves a pattern o f anxiety, worrying, moodiness, and propensity to experience negative affective states. It is also linked to increased exposure to stressful life events and increased susceptibility to the negative effects o f stress. Adolescents especially who have neurotic personality traits were the victims o f higher psychological distress due to confinement, social exclusion and reduced peer support during COVID-19. This has triggered a wide range o f psychological distress among adolescents. This study aims to explore the correlation and prediction o f neurotic personality and psychological distress among adolescents aged 15-19 during the COVID-19 pandemic. A cross-sectional predictive research method was used to collect data from adolescents in Kerala, India. BFI (Big Five Inventory), DASS-21 (Psychological Distress Scale), and PSS 10C (Perceived Stress Scale related to COVID) were used as measurement tools. The researcher recruited a sample o f 300 adolescents from different schools in Kerala and assessed through these measurement tools. High Neuroticism was found in 24.17 % o f the study sample o f adolescents in Kerala, India. Psychological distress was found in 86 % o f the adolescents in Kerala. These findings showed that neuroticism has a significant correlation with psychological distress during this pandemic among the adolescents and Neuroticism predicts 50 % of Psychological Distress and 73.4 % COVID19 Stress in the Kerala adolescents during COVID 19 pandemic.
