Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification03:00

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

5.2K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison

According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

Surveys02:16

Surveys

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Techniques of Therapeutic Communication II: Focusing, Paraphrasing, and Summarizing

7.8K
Focusing involves centering a conversation on a message's critical elements or concepts. Focusing is valuable if the talk is vague or patients begin to repeat themselves. Sometimes, when patients are asked about their symptoms, they may go off-topic and try to tell their entire life story. Respectfully, the nurse should bring the conversation back into focus.
This therapeutic technique can also be used when a patient brings up pertinent information during a health-related conversation. The...

Patient-centered Care01:13

Patient-centered Care

2.0K
Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Area of Science:

  • Clinical research methodology
  • Patient and public involvement in research
  • Translational science

Background:

  • Participatory research methods are increasingly used in clinical trials.
  • Guidance on incorporating end-user feedback after partnership establishment is limited.
  • This study introduces a brief reflections process to evaluate end-user feedback impact.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe and evaluate a "brief reflections" process for incorporating end-user feedback.
  • To assess the impact of end-user feedback on the conduct of the COMPASS study.
  • To demonstrate how systematic reflection can improve research processes.

Main Methods:

  • The study used a randomized controlled trial (COMPASS) evaluating PTSD treatments for Veterans with co-occurring SUD.
  • A "brief reflections" process involved 30-minute semi-structured discussions with the research team after engagement panel meetings.
  • 16 reflections were audio-recorded, transcribed, and analyzed to evaluate the impact of panel feedback.

Main Results:

  • Brief reflections identified eight areas for recommended changes, including recruitment, assessment completion, and therapist training.
  • Some recommendations positively impacted study conduct, while others had mixed results.
  • The reflections process was iterative, leading to emergent solutions and cross-pollination of ideas.

Conclusions:

  • Brief reflections, when paired with robust end-user engagement, systematically examine and improve study conduct.
  • This method provides accountability for researchers to consider and implement end-user recommendations.
  • Reflections facilitate the evaluation of recommendations and identify effective end-user-driven strategies for research improvement.
