Introduction

Narrative studies have focused on the language

used by the individuals to describe stressful or traumatic experi-

ences. Hence, linguistic procedures have been applied aiming to

obtain information about autobiographical memories and trauma

processing. However, there is a general lack of agreement about

how to measure narrative aspects. Software programs for this pur-

pose are limited, since they don’t capture the language context, and

systems based on judge’s rates are not free of subjective biases.

Objectives

This study presents a coding systemdeveloped to ana-

lyze several language categories related to traumaticmemories and

psychological processes. Structural aspects (e.g., coherence) and

content dimensions of traumatic narratives (e.g., emotional or cog-

nitive processes) are measured. Each narrative aspect is coded by

raters using both dichotomous (presence/absence) and numerical

values (Likert scale).

Aims

To propose a structured coding system for traumatic narra-

tives that considers the language context andmaximizes consensus

among different raters.

Methods

Traumatic narratives from 50 traumatized women and

stressful narratives from 50 non-traumatized women have been

evaluated according the system developed. Three blind raters

coded each narrative.

Results

Inter-rater reliability data are provided for the different

narrative categories. The agreement between raters is discussed for

both structural and content language domains.

Conclusions

The analysis of the inter-rater reliability allows

exploring subjective biases in assessing different structural and

content language dimensions. This study advances in the devel-

opment of a procedure to analyze autobiographical narratives in a

valid and reliable way, with a special focus on traumatic and other

unpleasant memories.

Introduction

Agitation is a psychiatric emergency that requires

immediate assistance. Inhaled loxapine is a new option for

achieving rapid tranquillisation avoiding coercive measures and

over-sedation, which fits with patient’s preferences and increases

their satisfaction with treatment.

Objective

Review the experience of use of inhaled loxapine in

clinical practice.

Methods

We included data from all reports of case series with 10

or more patients published by European prescribers.

Results

Ten posters were included that reported data on 116

patients, mostly diagnosed with psychotic or bipolar diseases.

Among the 60 patients that were evaluated using PANSS-EC, base-

line agitation intensity was above 20 in 45 of them (75%) and

between 15 and 32 in 15 (25%). Regarding patients evaluated with

the CGI-S scale, 17 patients had a score between 6 and 7 points

and 4 had scores between 4 and 5. All patients were able to prop-

erly inhalate the drug. In some patients agitation receded as early as

2 minutes, and almost all of them were controlled within 10 min-

utes. Only 6 patients required the 2nd dose of loxapine within 24

hours. When patients were asked for, they showed a preference for

inhaled administration instead of intramuscular one, manifested

high levels of satisfaction with inhaled treatment, and in one report

inhaled loxapine was stated to contribute to avoid mechanical

restraint. Inhaled loxapine was well tolerated and no over-sedation

was reported or any EPS, just a case of mild orthostatic hypotension.

Conclusion

This pool-data review of inhaled loxapine in real

world clinical practice shows that it is an effective treatment, with

a very rapid response, easy to administer and well tolerated, with

a good acceptance from patients.

Introduction

In recent years, researchers and clinicians have

shown an increasing interest in self-compassion. Indeed, several

studies have suggested that self-compassion is a positive factor

for mental and physical health. The Self-Compassion Scale (SCS;

Neff, 2003) has been widely used to assess six dimensions of

self-compassion (self-kindness, self-judgment, common human-

ity, isolation, mindfulness and over-identification) among diverse

populations. Recently, it has also been used in perinatal samples but

its psychometric properties in pregnant women is still unexplored.

Objective

This study aims was to investigate the reliability and

the validity of the SCS using Confirmatory Factor Analysis in a sam-

ple of Portuguese pregnant women.

Methods

Participants were 417 pregnant women with a mean

age of 33 years old (SD = 4.74) in their second trimester of

pregnancy (M= 17.26, SD = 4.78, weeks of gestation). Participants

completed the Portuguese version of the SCS while waiting for the

routine prenatal consultation in Maternity Hospital, Portugal.

Results

Awas tested and results showed that the six-factormodel

had a good fit to the data (TLI = 0.93, CFI = 0.94, RMSEA = 0.06). The

total SCS presented a good internal reliability ( = 0.91) and their

subscales showed Cronbach’s alphas ranging between adequate

( = 0.77) and good ( = 0.87).

Conclusions

Overall, these findings suggest that the Portuguese

version of the SCS is a valid and reliable measure to assess
