‘You are trying to teach us to think more slowly!’: Adapting Metacognitive Training for the acute care setting—A case report

Clinical Psychology &Psychotherapy, Volume 29, Issue 6, Page 1877-1885, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Psychological group interventions for the acute inpatient care setting are scarce. Whereas Metacognitive Training for patients with Psychosis (MCT) provides a widely accessible, easy‐to‐implement intervention for patients with mild to moderate symptoms, it is less adequate for the acute care setting with respect to length and density of ...

Virtual Balancing for Studying and Training Postural Control [PDF]

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
Postural control during free stance has been frequently interpreted in terms of balancing an inverted pendulum. This even holds, if subjects do not balance their own, but an external body weight. We introduce here a virtual balancing apparatus, which produces torque in the ankle joint as a function of ankle angle resembling the gravity and inertial ...
