This study is a prospective cohort study with a seven-week follow-up. The study was performed in the Department of Chiropractic Medicine, Balgrist University Hospital, Zurich, Switzerland. The study was approved by the ethics committee of the canton of Zurich (BASEC 2015-00068) and registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT0267614). All participants provided written informed consent.
Diagnosis and medical history were assessed before filling out the questionnaires. NDI-G [10] (at baseline and after seven weeks) and, to assess possible improvement, the patient global impression of change (PGIC) [14, 15] (after seven weeks only) were sent to the participants via email using the REDCap electronic data capture tool hosted at the Balgrist University Hospital [16]. If a participant declined to provide the email address, paper versions were available.

FCV-19S was observed to be the most commonly translated and cross-culturally adaptedinstrument, which is available in seven languages. The probable reason for this instrumentto be preferred for cross-cultural adaptation in different countries was the fact that thisis the earliest available COVID-19-related psychometric tool, published on March 27, 2020.The next psychometric tool20 assessing coronavirus anxiety was published only three weeks later. Though CPDI waspublished on March 6, 2020, the full instrument was not made available in the publication.33 The 7-item COVID-19 Anxiety Scale was observed to be the only COVID-19 psychometrictool validated in the Indian context.31 While the adaption of validated measures developed in other countries is possiblewith a simple translation of the instruments to regional language, it is advisable to verifyif the items in these tools meet the intended needs of Indian population, owing to thepossible difference in psychological aspects between the populations.63 Even within the country, rural and urban people can psychologically be different withregard to their COVID-19-related mental health problems; therefore, scale validatory samplesmust include participants from diverse geographical regions so that differences in itemresponses across different geographic categories may be determined. Also, checking thepsychometric and dimensional stability of translated measures is warranted.
Data were collected from April 28 to June 21, 2020, using an anonymous digital survey distributed to parents via social media, schools, parent networks, and parent support groups. Because the overall project focused on neurodevelopmental disorders, families with mental health problems were oversampled in all countries except Germany and Italy. This oversampling was achieved by posting information about the study on various social media forums targeting mental health problems in general or forums or support groups specifically targeting ADHD and/or ASD. The study was approved by the ethics committees in each of the seven participating countries.

In keeping with their farming culture, the Haudenosaunee held six to eight festivals a year relating to the cultivation of the soil and ripening of fruits and berries. There was a seven-day festival to give thanks when corn was planted, for example, and another when it was green. A third festival was held when corn was harvested.
That same year, the courts once again brought the issue of First Nations claims under public scrutiny. After decades of persistence, the Nisga'a people in British Columbia succeeded in bringing their case before the Supreme Court of Canada. Led by Frank Calder, the Nisga'a argued that Aboriginal title to lands was part of Canadian law. In their 1973 decision in the Calder case, six of the seven Supreme Court justices ruled in favour of the Nisga'a, confirming the legality of Aboriginal title. In a third court case in 1973, the Supreme Court of the Northwest Territories ruled in what has become known as the Paulette Caveat that Canada had not fulfilled its obligations under the terms of Treaties 8 and 11 in the Territories. As such, Aboriginal rights and title could not be fully relinquished to the Crown.
The present study examined the predictive role of increased self-reported mindfulness skills on reduced trauma-related guilt in a sample of veterans over the course of residential treatment for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD; N = 128). The residential treatment consisted of seven weeks of intensive cognitive processing therapy (CPT) for PTSD, as well as additional psychoeducational groups, including seven sessions on mindfulness skills. Increased mindfulness skills describing, acting with awareness, and accepting without judgment were significantly associated with reductions in trauma-related guilt over the course of treatment. Increases in the ability to act with awareness and accept without judgment were significantly associated with reductions in global guilt, R2 = .26, guilt distress, R2 = .23, guilt cognitions, R2 = .23, and lack of justification, R2 = .11. An increase in the ability to accept without judgment was the only self-reported mindfulness skill that was associated with reductions in hindsight bias, β = -.34 and wrongdoing, β = -.44. Increases in self-reported mindfulness skills explained 15.1 to 24.1% of the variance in reductions in trauma-related guilt, suggesting that mindfulness skills may play a key role in reducing the experience of trauma-related guilt during psychotherapy. Our results provide preliminary support for the use of mindfulness groups as an adjunct to traditional evidence-based treatments aimed at reducing trauma-related guilt, though this claim needs to be tested further using experimental designs.
Forty-seven veterans with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD; 37 male, 32 Caucasian) were randomized to treatment as usual (TAU; n = 22), or MBSR plus TAU (n = 25). PTSD, depression, and mental health-related quality of life (HRQOL) were assessed at baseline, posttreatment, and 4-month follow-up. Standardized effect sizes and the proportion with clinically meaningful changes in outcomes were calculated. 2ff7e9595c
