“…Previous studies had already demonstrated repeatedly the role of traumatic childhood events in developing hallucinations (Longden et al ., ; Varese, Smeets, Drukker et al ., 2012) and also demonstrated the association of these traumas with hallucination proneness in healthy subjects (Perona‐Garcelán et al ., ). The findings of this study were similar to those of Murphy et al ., () who had already specifically related childhood memories of subtle experiences of threat and submissiveness to psychotic symptoms in adulthood.…”

“…These authors found similar processes associated with hallucinations and ideas of reference. In fact, in a review done by Read, van Os, Morrison and Ross (), traumatic experiences were found to be associated with several types of psychotic symptoms, and not just hallucinations, while Murphy, Murphy and Shevlin () found an association between childhood memories of threatening experiences and subordination and psychotic symptoms. They proposed a model in which victimization in adolescence and loneliness were mediating variables in that relationship.…”

Recent studies have emphasized the importance of childhood memories of threatening experiences and submissiveness in a diversity of psychological disorders. The purpose of this work was to study their specific relationship with hallucination proneness and ideas of reference in healthy subjects. The ELES scale for measuring memory of adverse childhood experiences, the DES-II scale for measuring dissociation, the LSHS-R scale for measuring hallucination proneness, and the REF for ideas of reference were applied to a sample of 472 subjects. A positive association was found between childhood memories of adverse experiences and hallucination proneness and ideas of reference, on one hand, and dissociation on the other. A mediation analysis showed that dissociation was a mediator between the memory of adverse childhood experiences and hallucination proneness on one hand, and ideas of reference on the other. When the role of mediator of the types of dissociative experiences was studied, it was found that absorption and depersonalization mediated between adverse experiences and hallucination proneness. However, this mediating effect was not found between adverse experiences and ideas of reference. The relationship between these last two variables was direct. The results suggest that childhood memories of adverse experiences are a relevant factor in understanding hallucination proneness and ideas of reference. Similarly, dissociation is a specific mediator between adverse childhood experiences and hallucination proneness.

“…Most existing work has been in the general population, but one study suggests that loneliness mediates a relationship between internalised stigma and depression in people with psychosis, while another suggested that loneliness is a contextual moderator that may strengthen the trauma–psychosis relationship [91]. Other relevant psychological phenomena, such as motivation and level of perceived control/autonomy, were also highlighted as under-investigated.…”

PurposeThere is growing evidence of significant harmful effects of loneliness. Relatively little work has focused on how best to reduce loneliness in people with mental health problems. We aim to present an overview of the current state of the art in loneliness interventions in people with mental health problems, identify relevant challenges, and highlight priorities for future research and implementation.MethodsA scoping review of the published and grey literature was conducted, as well as discussions with relevant experts, to propose a broad classification system for types of interventions targeting loneliness.ResultsWe categorised interventions as ‘direct’, targeting loneliness and related concepts in social relationships, and ‘indirect’ broader approaches to well-being that may impact on loneliness. We describe four broad groups of direct interventions: changing cognitions; social skills training and psychoeducation; supported socialisation or having a ‘socially-focused supporter’; and ‘wider community approaches’. The most promising emerging evidence appears to be in ‘changing cognitions’, but, as yet, no approaches have a robust evidence base. Challenges include who is best placed to offer the intervention, how to test such complex interventions, and the stigma surrounding loneliness.ConclusionsDevelopment of clearly defined loneliness interventions, high-quality trials of effectiveness, and identifying which approaches work best for whom is required. Promising future approaches may include wider community initiatives and social prescribing. It is important to place loneliness and social relationships high on the wider public mental health and research agenda.

“…Bullying victimization is a major global public health problem among adolescents that has been linked to a number of behavioral and emotional problems including anxiety (Cohen and Kendall, 2015), depression (Cole et al, 2014;Hamilton et al, 2016), loneliness (Campbell, 2013;Murphy et al, 2015;Storch and Masia-Warner, 2004), social withdrawal (Dill et al, 2004;Runions and Shaw, 2013), low self-esteem (Fredstrom et al, 2011;Jones et al, 2014;Tsaousis, 2016), as well as poor psychosocial adjustment (Nansel et al, 2001). Various meta-analytic studies have also found support for the link between bullying victimization and the onset of depressive symptoms and internalizing problems (Reijntjes et al, 2010;Ttofi et al, 2014).…”

Although bullying victimization has been linked to a number of behavioral and emotional problems among adolescents, few studies have investigate the mechanism through which bullying victimization affect non-suicidal self-injury. The objectives of this study were to examine the effect of bullying victimization on non-suicidal self-injury and the mediating effect of depressive symptoms on the relationship between bullying victimization and non-suicidal self-injury among adolescents. Data for this study came from the interRAI Child and Youth Mental Health dataset. A total of 1650 adolescents aged 12-18 years (M =14.56; SD =1.79; 54.2% males) were analyzed. Binary logistic and Poisson regression models were conducted to identify the mediating effect of depressive symptoms on the relationship between bullying victimization and non-suicidal self-injury. Of the 1650 adolescents studied, 611 representing 37% engaged in non-suicidal self-injury and 26.7% were victims of bullying. The effect of bullying victimization on non-suicidal self-injury was partially mediated by depressive symptoms after adjusting for the effect of demographic characteristics, history of childhood abuse, social support, and mental health diagnoses. The contribution of bullying victimization and depression to non-suicidal self-injury adds to the case for the development of trauma-focused interventions in reducing the risk of non-suicidal self-injury among adolescents.
