The originality of the program comes from the use of storybooks that were not developed specifically for anxiety management. Every session is based on a story describing characters facing common stressors and how they manage to cope with their daily problems. In our randomized control trial with 46 children, participation in the program led to a significant improvement in coping skills, perceived self-efficacy, anxiety sensitivity, as well as in symptoms of anxiety and fear. The theoretical and practical elements underlying the delivery of this primary prevention program are described. Conclusion: It is suggested that such an approach, without any labelling specific to anxiety disorders, can be useful in primary prevention programs. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media New York.},

This article describes the procedures followed to select which VEs could be built for the Canadian Forces. A review and analysis of the available literature and of data collected postdeployment from 1,319 respondents on the frequency of stressors and their association with psychological injuries were pulled together to propose eight potential virtual stressors that can be used to practice SMT: seeing dead bodies or uncovering human remains; knowing someone being seriously injured or killed; receiving artillery fire; being unable to help ill or wounded civilians because of the rules of engagement; seeing destroyed homes and villages; clearing and searching homes, caves, or bunkers; receiving small-arms fire; and participating in demining operations. Information reported in this article could also be useful to document traumatic stressors experienced in theater of operations and their potential impact on psychological injuries. © Copyright 2010, Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. 2010.},

In the first study, 101 patients with Type I or Type II diabetes completed the Multidimensional Diabetes Questionnaire. Cluster analysis identified three clusters, labeled adaptive copers, low support-low involvement, and spousal overinvolvement. In the second study, the taxonomy was cross-validated using an independent sample of 132 patients with long-standing Type II diabetes. The results confirmed that the multivariate classification system was unique and highly accurate. External validation, using general psychological as well as diabetes-specific measures, supported the validity and distinctiveness of the patients' profiles.
