- Description: The current research explored 16 of Young's schemas in relation to trait anger and to anxiety and depression symptoms among 262 non-clinical Australian adults with low-level symptomatology and average anger levels. The study partially replicated previous work with a sample of Spanish students that investigated the relationship between anger, depression, and anxiety and Young's schemas. Predictions derived from Beck's notion of cognitive specificity were examined using structural equation modelling and showed that of the sixteen schemas, Vulnerability was linked to anxiety, Social Isolation and Enmeshment were linked to depression, and Entitlement, Insufficient Self-Control, Mistrust and Abuse, Subjugation (negatively), and Abandonment were linked to anger. The discrepancies between these and the Spanish findings and the difficulties of other researchers in establishing higher order aggregations of Young's schemas prompted further consideration of the range of such schemas with respect to anger, depression, and anxiety, and the possibility that sample characteristics may play a critical role in determining the varying affect-schema relationships. © 2011 The Australian Psychological Society.

- Description: "The theme explored in relation to the 3 projects (in this report) was the issue of innovation in clinical practice. As shown in the various reports, innovation can occur at a micro level as in Study 1 when aspects of two therapies were combined in an attempt to speed therapy; in Study 2 the innovation was more routine and practical in amalgamating the various practices of different Departments at the Ballarat Health Services into a treatment protocol for the treatment of young patients affected by critical eating disorders, or innovation in a wider sense; in Study 3 the effectiveness of a new treatment centre was researched. Some the ethical practice issues around innovation in clinical practice were examined in the final paper."-- leaf iii.
