Summary: This study examines the association between older adults' perceptions of an increase in their cost of living during rapid inflation and various aspects of psychological distress, and whether mastery moderates these associations. The results indicate that perceiving moderate or large increases in cost of living is associated with higher levels of distress. Taking into account baseline financial strain, mastery, and psychological distress weakens these associations, but perceiving a large increase in cost of living still substantially links to anger and anxiety. Mastery also buffers the associations with anxiety and anger.

Summary: This study identified and replicated three novel genetic loci associated with the common risk of heroin, methamphetamine addiction, and alcoholism. These loci have functional effects on gene expression and brain structure, and may provide insights into the root cause of substance dependence, aiding in the development of prevention strategies for addiction disorders.

Summary: This study aimed to identify covariates of suicidal ideation in individuals with social anxiety disorder. Results showed that individuals with SAD and SI reported higher symptoms of SAD and depression, more adverse childhood experiences, higher state anger, perceived burdensomeness, and thwarted belongingness compared to those without SI. These factors were significant covariates of acute SI, supporting the validity of the Interpersonal Theory of Suicide in SAD.

Summary: Anal fissures are associated with higher levels of anxiety and depression in patients, leading to poorer quality of life and sexual function. A case-control study found that patients with AF had higher levels of anxiety and depression, as well as worse health-related quality of life and anger, compared to controls. On the other hand, controls showed better sexual function and quality of life compared to cases. Addressing these psychological issues in AF patients could be beneficial for their clinical assessment and intervention.

Summary: There is a growing research interest in understanding the emotional responses to climate change. However, valid instruments to assess a wide range of emotional responses are limited. This study developed and validated the Inventory of Climate Emotions (ICE), a self-report measure of multiple emotions related to climate change. The ICE demonstrated high psychometric quality and captured a broad spectrum of emotional responses. It also showed functionality in predicting pro-climate behavior. The ICE provides an integrative approach to understanding the complex role of emotions in climate change engagement.

Summary: Most research on filicide mothers has focused on their negative emotions before they commit the crime, but little is known about whether these emotions persist one year after the offense among incarcerated filicide mothers with no history of psychiatric problems. This study aimed to explore the negative feelings experienced by filicide mothers in Nyarugenge Prison in Rwanda, and to examine the impact of these feelings on their personal wellbeing, as well as their coping strategies. The findings highlight the need for appropriate interventions to address the negative feelings of incarcerated filicide mothers.

Summary: This study aimed to examine the differences in anger, rumination, anxiety, and depression between family members of individuals with gambling disorder and a general population sample. The study also analyzed the relationships between these variables and the mediating role of rumination. The results showed that family members had higher scores in anger, rumination, depression, and anxiety. Additionally, anger was positively correlated with rumination, depression, and anxiety, which were also positively correlated with each other. Rumination mediated the relationship between anger and depression, anger and anxiety and depression, and anger (external expression) and anxiety and depression.

Summary: Anger and disgust are more strongly associated with the experience of misophonia than anxiety. Quality of life in people with self-reported misophonia is lower than in the general population and may be similar to those with tinnitus. Depression, avoiding triggers, the extent of the emotional response, and perceived impact on participation in life are associated with perceptions of lower quality of life over time for people with self-reported misophonia.

Summary: Smoking is common among patients with anxiety disorders and may impact fear learning and generalization. However, the timing of smoking does not appear to affect fear learning. Although there were no significant differences in fear learning between smoker manipulation groups, smokers showed differences in fear generalization compared to non-smokers.

Summary: This study analyzed the relationship between positive orientation and subjective control of anger, anxiety, and depression in nursing students from Poland, Spain, and Slovakia during the pandemic. The results showed that Polish students had significantly lower levels of positive orientation compared to students from Spain and Slovakia. Positive orientation was found to be the most important predictor of emotional control among nursing students at all sites.

Summary: The parasubthalamic nucleus (PSTN) is a small nucleus located on the lateral edge of the posterior hypothalamus, playing a crucial role in the brain region network in sensing and regulating autonomic function and homeostatic needs, as well as serving as an important interface between interoception and emotions. PSTN neurons are mostly glutamatergic, but also express neuropeptides associated with stress, such as substance P, responding to food ingestion and arousing stimuli.

Summary: The study found that CRF neurons in the central nucleus of the amygdala can produce GABA and CRF locally, promoting novelty-induced feeding suppression, but do not lead to an increase in alcohol intake or negative affect.

Summary: Stressful early-life experiences increase the risk of developing an alcohol use disorder. In this study, it was found that male mice reared under limited bedding and nesting conditions escalated their ethanol intake faster than control mice when exposed to chronic intermittent ethanol inhalation. However, the alcohol consumption of female littermates was not affected by these conditions. This suggests a general insensitivity of female mice to the influence of early-life stress on alcohol responses.

Summary: This study demonstrates that MAP4343 can reduce excessive alcohol drinking in mice and normalize affect during withdrawal, suggesting its therapeutic potential for alcohol use disorders. The findings also highlight the importance of microtubule cytoskeleton alterations in mood regulation and provide evidence for targeting microtubules as a treatment approach for AUD.
