abstract = {Purpose: Many school-age children and adolescents who stutter experience the fear of public speaking. Treatment implications include the need to address this problem. However, it is not always possible to train repeatedly in front of a real audience. The present study aimed to assess the relevance of using a virtual classroom in clinical practice with school-age children and adolescents who stutter. Methods: Ten children and adolescents who stutter (aged 9–17 years old) had to speak in three different situations: in front of a real audience, in front of a virtual class and in an empty virtual apartment using a head-mounted display. We aimed to assess whether the self-rated levels of anxiety while speaking in front of a virtual audience reflect the levels of anxiety reported while speaking in front of a live audience, and if the stuttering level while speaking to a virtual class reflects the stuttering level while speaking in real conditions. Results: Results show that the real audience creates higher anticipatory anxiety than the virtual class. However, both the self-reported anxiety levels and the stuttering severity ratings when talking in front of a virtual class did not differ from those observed when talking to a real audience, and were significantly higher than when talking in an empty virtual apartment. Conclusion: Our results support the feasibility and relevance of using a virtual classroom to expose school-age children and adolescents who stutter to a feared situation during cognitive behavioral therapy targeting the fear of public speaking. © 2021 Elsevier Inc.},

Participants also completed measures of gambling severity, gambling cognitions and motives, impulsivity, and affect. Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the original 3-factor solution (anticipation, desire, relief) did not fit the data well. Additional exploratory factor analysis suggested instead a 2-factor solution: An intention and desire to gamble dimension and a relief dimension. The factorial structure resulting from the exploratory factor analysis was tested with confirmatory factor analysis in a second independent sample, resulting in an acceptable fit. The 2 dimensions presented good internal reliability and correlated differentially with the other study's variables.

Thirty women (victims and nonvictims of sexual assault) were randomly assigned in a counter-balanced order to 2 immersions in a virtual bar: a control scenario where the encounter with the aggressor does not lead to sexual assault and an experimental scenario where the participant is assaulted.

No adverse events were reported during or after the immersions. Repeated-measures analyses of covariance revealed a significant time effect and significantly more anxiety (Cohen's f = 0.41, large effect size) and negative affect (Cohen's f = 0.35, medium effect size) in the experimental scenario than in the control condition.

abstract = {Purpose: To investigate the coping strategies of youth sexual offenders, which are believed to be important elements in the development of sexual offending behaviours. Subjects and method: This cross-sectional study investigated two groups of male adolescents (n = 196) consisting of youth sexual offenders and non-offender peers. Examination of the coping strategies was measured by a Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations (CISS). Results: It was hypothesized that youth sexual offenders used sex-related activities and emotions as coping strategies to alleviate negative emotional states and problematic situations. The results obtained demonstrated that youth sexual offenders make less use of sex-related activities as a way of coping with stressful situations, but make more use of emotions-coping strategies when compared to non-offender peers. An attempt was made to predict youth as sexual offenders or non-offenders according to the coping strategies they used in times of stress. The logistic regression model used was statistically significant and the analysis performed increased the likelihood of correctly identifying youth sexual offenders based on the coping strategies used in times of stress. Conclusion: The results of the study demonstrated that youth sexual offenders have a tendency to use emotional responses to cope with life's difficulties, which may be increasing their level of stress and thereby placing them at a higher risk to offend sexually. © 2009 Elsevier Masson SAS.
