This presentation, entitled “Recovering a Self in Psychosis,” is based on the findings of over 30 years of qualitative studies involving persons with serious mental illnesses who have described the rediscovery and reconstruction of a sense of the self as an effective social agent in the world as integral to their recovery from psychosis. This program of research has its foundation in the consistent finding of over a century of clinical observation, dating back to Kraepelin and Bleuler, that psychosis is marked by a pronounced loss of a sense of self as an agent.

Researchers have studied online groups and communities since the 1990s. However, it was the start of the COVID-19 global pandemic that caused many organizations and their employees to widely adopt virtual communication for the typical employee. Many organizations, like hospitals and nursing centers, cannot work remotely, but still may be more widely adopting video interactions to support virtual teams.

The psychological and emotional impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has been highlighted as a major public health concern, with early epidemiological evidence suggesting increased rates of psychiatric disturbance as well as overall stress, loneliness, and uncertainty. While a range of psychosocial factors have been found to contribute to poor mental health outcomes over the past year, a growing number of studies have also evaluated potential protective factors for mitigating emotional distress during the pandemic.

The utility of the AMPD for routine clinical use will be discussed. References

The impact of reduced social contact on mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic has been identified as a major public health concern. While personality factors such as attachment style have been associated with psychological distress during the pandemic, the longitudinal relevance of these factors and the role of daily social contact in mitigating distress remains poorly understood.

The presentation will provide an introduction to the concept of epistemic trust and its recent application to developmental psychopathology. Epistemic trust refers to trust in communication or communicated knowledge, and has been implicated in both social learning and psychopathology, as a result of disruptions in the capacity to adopt an appropriate epistemic strategy in relation to social information.

Addiction to alcohol, tobacco, cocaine, benzodiazepines, cannabis, and opioids can be devastating, as we all know. But video games, online porn, internet gaming, internet gambling, and other technological addictions can be every bit as addictive as substances. These addictions can have real-world ramifications and lead to the loss of jobs, money, and loved ones. As technology becomes integrated into every facet of modern life, these technological addictions are becoming increasingly prevalent.
