Summary: This study investigates the correlation between dyadic coping, self-perceived burden, caregiver burden, and anxiety/depression in colorectal cancer patient-spousal caregiver dyads. The findings suggest that self-perceived burden and caregiver burden play a mediating role in the relationship between dyadic coping and anxiety/depression. This highlights the importance of addressing self-perceived burden and caregiver burden to improve the mental well-being of both partners in colorectal cancer patient-spousal caregiver dyads.

Summary: Personal well-being is a positive mental state that affects one's entire life experience. The Croatian War of Independence had a significant impact on Croatian families, particularly those directly involved in the conflict. This study aimed to investigate the effects of anxiety and depression symptoms on personal well-being in couples with and without traumatic war experiences. The findings revealed a specific pattern of interaction in couples where war veterans had PTSD; the husbands' higher anxiety and depression symptoms reduced the wives' personal well-being.

Summary: The research used a novel conversation-analytically informed paradigm to examine how joint decision-making interaction is reflected in participants' physiological responses, focusing on proposal sequences. The study found that participants had higher and more synchronized skin conductance (SC) responses during proposal sequences, particularly when the participant was in the role of a proposal speaker, and when the proposal was accepted by the recipient. This suggests that accepting responses signal a commitment to future action, for which the proposal speaker may feel a heightened sense of responsibility.

Summary: This systematic review examines the impact of parental anxiety disorders (AD) on offspring behavior and neurodevelopment. The findings suggest that prenatal maternal anxiety is associated with negative temperament, increased attention to fearful vocalizations, decreased alertness, and impaired psychomotor and cognitive development in early and middle childhood. AD during the postnatal period is associated with greater negative temperament, internalizing symptoms, and anxiety symptoms in early childhood, middle childhood, and adolescence.

Summary: This study used a dyadic analytic approach to examine the stability and interrelationships of intolerance of uncertainty (IU) among youth with chronic pain and their parents. The findings suggest that IU is stable over time and has intrapersonal effects on youth pain interference and mental health symptoms, as well as parents' mental health symptoms. However, there were no interpersonal effects between youth and parent IU or between youth and parent IU and pain interference or mental health symptoms.

Summary: Dreams during the outbreak of war were analyzed to explore the emotional intensity and dream content differences between individuals with high levels of anxiety and depression and those with lower levels of anxiety. The study found that dreams of anxious individuals exhibited less surprise and more horror, evoking feelings of powerlessness. In contrast, dreams of non-anxious individuals had a dynamic narrative with numerous twists and turns, creating a simultaneous presence and absence of threats, resulting in surprise.
