(Armour et al., 2015) provided a better fit than other competing
models.
Conclusions The current findings suggest that the dimensional
structure of DSM-5 PTSD symptoms may be best represented by
the 7 factors proposed in the hybrid model instead of 4 factors of
DSM-5.

through communication skills

over-adaptation

Japanese society, which culturally focuses more on harmony rather
than individuals, tends to promote making society members to
have over-adaptation, one of the psychological characteristics. The
research embraced the definition of over-adaptation, as “the ten-
dency to lose the authority due to one’s excessive efforts to meet
others’ expectations rather than their own needs”. Individuals with
over-adaptation have higher risks for suffering depression, violent
behaviors, and psychosomatic disorders, potentially creates risks
for suicide and death from over-work.
The recent Japanese studies mostly focused on examining the
methods that balance internal adaptation by lowering external
adaptation. However, this method has risks such as inducing resis-
tance and coincidentally making professional helps more difficult.
Our research focused on one of the internal maladjustment, self-
inhibition, which is the necessary communication skill.
The research focused on individuals with over-adaptation, and set
the objectives to reveal their imbalance of communication skills
including self-inhibition. It farther aimed to examine the prevent-
ing methods the over-adaptation, which induce people to have
another psychological maladjustments.
The research conducted a questioner to students in a university and
high school. It suggested that individuals with over-adaptation ten-
dency were less skillful in representation and self-assertion, and
that they had stronger skill in other areas, such as capability for
others, empathy, internal relationship adjustment skill, and self-
control. Since these skills were high, they coincidentally made total
balance worth. Additionally, their bad physical conditions were
noted.
The research suggested the effectiveness of the self-expression and
assertion training to improve adaptation, which coincidentally pre-
vents physical problems.

Introduction The triangular theory of love posits intimacy, pas-
sion and commitment as the necessary components of romantic
love (RL). Different attachment styles – secure, preoccupied,
fearful-avoidant and dismissive – may influence the psychological
variables of (RL).
Aims To explore the relationship between the different attach-
ment styles and intimacy, passion and commitment in RL in a
sample of the general population in Serbia; and to ascertain the
attachment style which correlates most closely with the compo-
nents of RL.
Method Attachment style was assessed by the Experiences in
close relationships scale, and the components of RL by the Stern-
berg’s Triangular love scale. The study sample comprised 312
persons of both sexes, aged between 18 and 50 years old, and who
had been in RL for at least 3 months.
Results The most frequent attachment style was secure (70.8%),
followed by dismissive (14.4%), preoccupied (11.5%) and fearful-
avoidant (3.2%). Persons with secure attachment style expressed a
higher level of intimacy in RL as comparedwith personswith preoc-
cupied and dismissive attachment styles (P < 0.001); persons with
preoccupied attachment style expressed a higher level of intimacy
in RL as compared with persons with fearful-avoidant attachment
style ( P < 0.05). There were no significant differences with regard to
the passion and commitment scores.
Conclusion Persons with secure attachment style realize the
highest levels of intimacy in RL, while those with fearful-avoidant
the lowest. Passion and commitment were not influenced by
attachment style. The psychotherapeutic intervention dealing with
fearful-avoidant attachment style may have influence on realiza-
tion of intimacy in RL.

Introduction The use of valid and practical screening scales might
ease the burden for greatly needed universal testing for mental
health, substance use and dual disorders, but do they work well
with all populations? Do they miss correct identification of certain
groups?
Objective To understand discrepancies in diagnostic prediction
using the AC-OK screen in conjunction with other standardized
assessment scales.
Methods Two hundred and twenty-six Latino participants were
recruited from primary care and community clinics in Madrid,
Barcelona and Boston and assessed with standardized mental
health and substance abuse measures including the AC-OK screen
