(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.

Adaptation skill improvement

through communication skills

analysis of individuals with

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
