A therapist survey of evidence-based practices in publicly funded youth mental health
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
sizes in controlled clinical trials for evidence-based treatments (EBTs) for youth MH problems (Weisz, Jensen-Doss & Hawley, 2006). One potential reason for this discrepancy may be that therapists within TAU contexts are not implementing EBTs. To date...
Longitudinal, naturalistic study of training and support for implementation of evidence-based youth mental health practices among community providers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
support in evidence-based practices (EBPs). To address this need, the current study describes the reach and impact of a county-wide youth MH initiative aimed at increasing youths' and families' access to effective youth MH services by providing free EBP...
Implementation of a low-cost, web-based, multi-component training for trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
knowledge, use, and fidelity in TF-CBT. A multiple regression showed that previous TF-BT training, clinician attitudes towards evidence-based practices, and clinician age predicted training completion. Implications for web-based trainings and implementation...
Cognitive load and time based forgetting
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
the case against absolute time-based forgetting is strong, we believe this view to be incomplete. In 2 experiments, we show that substantial forgetting occurs due to the passage of time in at least one situation. On each trial, an array of novel characters...
Differential effects of negative and positive affect on context processing
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
to the first study, the second and third studies found evidence that briefly elicited negative affect increased errors on context processing tasks. Conversely, positive affect did not have a significant effect on context processing performance. Overall...
Assessing the role of pair familiarity in the associative deficit of older adults
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
in associative tests were related to reliance on familiarity or recollection. Evidence shows that both unitization and repetition increase associative memory in both younger and older adults. While recollection seems to mediate this effect in unitization...
Disentangling alcohol-specific alcohol use disorder criteria from externalizing psychopathology using an empirically driven approach
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
analytic procedure, combinatorial optimization. First, we identified AUD symptom sets based on standard and alcohol-specific consumption measures. The symptom sets were then compared to existing diagnostic measures and AUD correlates to determine whether...
Forgetting in short term memory : the effect of time
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
that the memory trace for a set of stimuli to be remembered weakens in proportion to the amount of time that passes whereas interference posits one stimulus interacting with another as the cause of forgetting. Recent evidence has suggested that decay should...
Validity of the hangover symptoms scale : evidence from two diary studies
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
to assess the frequency of 13 hangover-like symptoms experienced after drinking in the past year (Slutske et al., 2003). Cross-sectional analyses in a sample of college drinkers (Slutske et al., 2003) showed preliminary evidence for the validity of the HSS...
The comprehensive arrogance scale
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
difficulty of the activity, and this pattern was in part mediated by feelings of superiority. I did not find support for the hypotheses that individuals high in CAS would practice less, nor did I find evidence for any of the hypothesized moderations...
A transdiagnostic investigation of amygdala-vmPFC resting state functional connectivity and emotional distress in daily lives
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
, replicating the results of previous research (Burghy et al., 2012). Results also found that another emotion circuit, the dACC-amygdala, was associated with negative affect and affective instability. The current research found evidence for neural mechanisms...
Toward effective and efficient treatment adherence monitoring : development of the cognitive behavioral therapy adherence measure
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Despite the large body of research demonstrating the efficacy of evidence-based practices (EBPs) for the most common youth mental health problems, EBPs are rarely used in usual care (UC). When EBPs are implemented in UC settings, there is a drop...
Ambulatory assessment of physical pain, emotional distress, and alcohol use
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The available research suggests that many individuals with chronic pain drink alcohol to manage their pain. However, few studies have examined the ...
Multisensory working memory in adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
. Evidence was demonstrated that this difference may normalize later in adolescence. Elevated sensory symptomology (i.e., hyperreactivity and sensation avoidance) was negatively correlated with multisensory, but not unisensory, working memory. Future research...
Inhibitory control in male and female adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
), there was no evidence of ASD-related impairment in prepotent response inhibition as measured by the go/no-go task. Also consistent with past findings (e.g., Boland et al., 2019), age-related differences in RIVD ability were evident for the ASD group. Notably, we found...
High intensity drinking : prevalence and correlates in a community-based sample of Australian adults
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Many adult drinkers consume far beyond the established binge threshold (i.e., 4/5+ drinks for women and men, respectively). High intensity drinking (HID), defined in two levels at two (high intensity low [HIL]) and three ...
Predictors of symptom course in alcohol use disorder
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) has traditionally been viewed as a chronic, progressive, relapsing disorder (Jellinek, 1960; National Institute on Drug ...
Young children's use of working memory for producing unfamiliar sentence structures
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
but also their construction of original passive voice structures. In the first new study, I used a similar method to Adams and Cowan (2021) but gave 4- and 5-year-old participants (n = 38) more instruction and practice recalling the passive. Responses were...
The psychology of the Negro
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1914)
races meet, the problem of racial differences is an important one for our educational theory and practice, as well as our social philosophy. This is especially true in our Southern States, where there are vast numbers of white and colored children...
Subjective cognition and objective cognitive performance: the role of sleep
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Subjective cognitive complaints and objective cognitive dysfunction are common in aging populations, however research investigating the associations between them is inconclusive. Given the high prevalence of sleep complaints ...
