- ItemOpen AccessEffects of a Mindfulness Based Intervention on Psychological Distress and Romantic Relationships: Results of a Pilot Study(2016-04) Kiss Enikő Csilla; Vajda DóraVarious studies have demonstrated that mindfulness-based programs are related to positive psychological and physical outcomes. This pilot study was set out to investigate the relational and individual benefits of mindfulness training in well-functioning couples. In this randomized trial, we assigned 28 couples to the 10-week mindfulness training program intervention group (N=14 couples) or to a waitlist control group (N=14 couples). Relationship quality, relationship stress, and psychological distress were measured with standardized instruments. The results indicate the benefits of the meditation training. Couples in the treatment group showed significantly reduced psychological distress, somatization, hostility, psychoticism and paranoid ideation symptoms in comparison to couples who did not receive the intervention. The current pilot study provides preliminary support for reducing stress and enhancing psychological well-being in the sample of relatively well functioning couples. Despite encouraging findings, several limitations affect present study. Suggestions are given for future research based on better designed methodology and for future directions of investigation.
- ItemOpen AccessHow codependency affects dyadic coping, relationship perception and life satisfaction(2023) Happ Zsuzsa; Bodó-Varga Zsófia; Bandi Szabolcs Ajtony; Kiss Enikő Csilla; Nagy László; Csókási KrisztinaIn this study, we interpret codependency as a dysfunctional pattern of relating to others, and based on this approach, we hypothesized an association with negative forms of dyadic coping, relationship problems and life satisfaction. A total of 246 Hungarian participants (167 females, 79 males), aged 18–72 years (M=35.3, SD=11.6) completed our online survey including measures of codependency, dyadic coping, perceptions of relationship, and life satisfaction. In our cross-sectional research, the Spann-Fischer Codependency Scale (SF-CDS), the Dyadic Coping Inventory (DCI), the Shortened Marital Stress Scale (MSS-R), and the Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS) were used. Correlational and pathway analyzes were applied to confrm our hypotheses. Codependency was associated with negative dyadic coping, while we found no measurable infuence on positive dyadic coping. Individuals with higher codependency rated both their own and their partner’s negative dyadic coping more pronounced, while at the same time they characterized their relationships as more problematic. Structural Equation Modelling proved that codependent attitudes, along with the emergence of negative dyadic coping forms and perception of relationship problems, reduce a person’s life satisfaction. Overall, it can be stated that the more codependent the participants were, the more negative their own and partner’s behaviour was perceived in stressful situations and the more problematic their intimate relationship was found to be. Our results support the idea that codependency is a specifc, largely stable attitude that determines a person’s perception and behaviour relating to others.
- ItemOpen AccessRole of received social support in the physical activity of coronary heart patients: The Health Action Process Approach(2022) Teleki Szidalisz; Zsidó András Norbert; Lénárd László; Komócsi András; Kiss Enikő Csilla; Tiringer IstvánPhysical activity (PA) plays a crucial role in the management of coronary artery disease (CAD). The Health Action Process Approach provides a useful framework for understanding and predicting the process of health behaviors. The aim of the current study was to unveil the role of received social support in the HAPA model, concerning the physical activity of CAD patients. A longitudinal sample of 117 CAD patients filled out a questionnaire during three measurement points (baseline, 2 months, and 6 months later). The constructs within the model were measured by the previously validated HAPA scales. PA was assessed with four items, which were also included in the HAPA questionnaire. To test the direct and indirect associations between the variables, structural equation modeling with latent variables was employed. Received social support was proven to have a significant and strong effect on both action planning and action control, suggesting a synergistic effect on the individual factors, as well as increasing the explained variance of PA. Results confirmed the important role of received social support in the PA of CAD patients. It could be presumed that strengthening the social support from family and friends could support the regular physical activity of CAD patients.
- ItemOpen AccessSzondi Lipót(Új Mandátum Könyvkiadó, 1999) Kiss Enikő CsillaSzondi Lipótot nyugodt szívvel nevezhetjük a lélek genetikusának. Egész életművének sarokköve egyrészt az emberi sors ösztönökre való lehorgonyozásának szándéka, másrész pedig – és ez új elem a freudi pszichoanalízishez képest – az ösztönök génekre való visszavezetésének a kísérlete. Szondi ösztönelméletének persze több lehetséges értelmezése is van. Legáltalánosabb értelemben egyfajta sorsanalízis, ahol az elődöktől örökölt gének és a választó én szabadsága egymást áthatva és befolyásolva szervezi az egyén életét. Egyfelől van valamifajta kényszer, amely a családi ősöktől áramlik felénk, akik ilyen módon is mintákat és sorslehetőségeket adnak számunkra. Másfelől van a saját szabadságunk, amellyel választunk a rendelkezésre álló minták és lehetőségek közül, amelyek némelyikét beépítjük, másokat viszont nem építünk be személyes sorsunkba. Ez tehát – Szondi zseniális kifejezésével élve – maga az irányítható fatalizmus: az emberi sors genetikailag behatárolt, mégis bizonyos mértékig előre látható és befolyásolható.
- ItemOpen AccessThe role of social support in the dietary behavior of coronary heart patients : an application of the health action process approach(2019) Teleki Szidalisz; Zsidó András Norbert; Komócsi András; Lénárd László; Kiss Enikő Csilla; Tiringer IstvánDietary behaviour plays a crucial role in both the onset and the management of coronary artery disease (CAD). To develop effective interventions to modify dietary behaviours of patients, it is fundamental to identify and examine the predictive factors that are relevant to healthy dietary behaviour. The Health Action Process Approach provides a useful framework for understanding and predicting the process of health behaviour. The aim of the current study is to clarify the role and effect of received social support in the HAPA model. A longitudinal sample of 117 CAD patients filled out a questionnaire at three time points. Along with HAPA constructs, dietary behaviour was assessed with a food frequency questionnaire. To investigate the longitudinal associations of the constructs, structural equation modelling with latent variables was employed. In the final model, outcome expectancies and pre-action self-efficacy jointly predicted behavioural intention. In the post-intentional phase, social support served as a mediator between intention and action planning. Moreover, coping planning mediated the relationship between action planning and dietary behaviour. These results confirmed the mediator role of social support in the intention-behaviour relationship. This finding suggests that social support can be a crucial component to facilitate healthy dietary behaviour.
