Ratings For Emotion Film Clips, Crystal A. Cabert-Quillen, Ellen E. Bartolini, Benjamin T. Abravanel, Charles A. Sanislow

Charles A. Sanislow, Ph.D.

Film clips are widely utilized to elicit emotion in a variety of research studies. Normative ratings for scenes selected for these purposes support the idea that selected clips correspond to the intended target emotion, but studies reporting normative ratings are limited. Using an ethnically diverse sample of college undergraduates, selected clips were rated for intensity, discreteness, valence, and arousal. Variables hypothesized to affect the perception of stimuli (i.e., gender, race–ethnicity, and familiarity) were also examined. Our analyses generally indicated that males reacted strongly to positively valenced film clips, whereas females reacted more strongly to negatively valenced film clips. Caucasian participants …

Personality Disorder Risk Factors For Suicide Attempts Over 10 Years Of Follow-Up, Emily B. Ansell, Aidan G. C. Wright, John C. Markowitz, Charles A. Sanislow, Christopher J. Hopwood, Mary C. Zanarini, Shirley Yen, Anthony Pinto, Thomas H. Mcglashan, Carlos M. Grilo

Identifying personality disorder (PD) risk factors for suicide attempts is an important consideration for research and clinical care alike. However, most prior research has focused on single PDs or categorical PD diagnoses without considering unique influences of different PDs or of severity (sum) of PD criteria on the risk for suicide-related outcomes. This has usually been done with cross-sectional or retrospective assessment methods. Rarely are dimensional models of PDs examined in longitudinal, naturalistic prospective designs. In addition, it is important to consider divergent risk factors in predicting the risk of ever making a suicide attempt versus the risk of making …

Objective: This report examines the relationship of borderline personality disorder (BPD) to DSM-IV anxiety disorders using data on the reciprocal effects of improvement or worsening of BPD and anxiety disorders over the course of 10 years.
Method: We reliably and prospectively assessed borderline patients (N= 164) with DSM-IV-defined co-occurring generalized anxiety disorder (GAD; N= 42), panic with agoraphobia (PWA; N= 39), panic without agoraphobia (PWOA; N= 36), social phobia (N= 48), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD; N= 36), and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD; N= 88) annually over a period of 10 years between 1997 and 2009. We used proportional hazards regression analyses …

Nimh Research Domain Criteria (Rdoc), Charles A. Sanislow, Kevin J. Quinn, Isaiah Sypher

Charles A. Sanislow, Ph.D.

The Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) project is a framework for studying domains of biological and behavioral function that cut across traditional psychiatric diagnostic boundaries with the long-term objective of creating a new nosology based on specific biobehavioral measures. The initial aim is to provide a framework to drive clinical research. One goal of RDoC is to facilitate the development of biomarkers that could eventually be used for practical clinical diagnostic purposes and allow the development of new treatments targeting specific mechanisms of mental illness. In this entry, RDoC, its development, and the ways that it may evolve are described.
