Self-Report Tests of Personality01:22

Self-Report Tests of Personality

880
Self-report inventories are objective personality assessments that use multiple-choice items or numbered scales, typically ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). They are often called Likert scales after Rensis Likert. These inventories are widely used due to their ease of administration and cost-effectiveness. One of the most prominent examples is the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), initially developed in the 1940s to assess abnormal personality traits.

Avoidance-avoidance conflict refers to a psychological situation where a person must choose between two or more unpleasant alternatives. These conflicts are particularly stressful because neither option is desirable. This dilemma is often expressed in sayings like "caught between a rock and a hard place" or "between the devil and the deep blue sea."

Avoidance Learning and Learned Helplessness01:14

Avoidance Learning and Learned Helplessness

2.6K
Avoidance learning and learned helplessness are critical concepts in understanding behavioral responses to negative stimuli.
Avoidance learning occurs when an organism learns that a specific behavior can prevent an unpleasant outcome. For example, a student who receives a bad grade may start studying harder to avoid future poor grades. This behavior persists even when the negative outcome is no longer present. Avoidance learning is powerful because it maintains behavior in the absence of the...

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Allergology
  • Clinical Immunology

Background:

  • Patch testing is a diagnostic tool for contact dermatitis.
  • Patient-reported outcomes are crucial for assessing treatment effectiveness.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate patient-reported improvement following patch testing.
  • To identify factors associated with improvement after patch testing.

Main Methods:

  • Cross-sectional study of patients patch tested between 2013-2016.
  • Patients reported improvement on a 0-100% scale at 2-3 month follow-up.
  • Analysis included demographic and clinical factors.

Main Results:

  • 81% of patients reported improvement after patch testing.
  • Women reported significantly more improvement than men.
  • No significant association found between improvement and age, atopy, or allergen type.

Conclusions:

  • Patch testing leads to significant patient-reported benefit in eczema.
  • Gender differences in reported improvement warrant further investigation.
  • Patient self-assessment is a valuable measure of disease activity and quality of life.
