With biodiversity loss as one of today's most pressing global problems, it is crucial to raise public recognition of this crisis and promote acceptance of conservation efforts. Plants, which typically struggle with low awareness ('plant blindness') and less emotional connection than animals with humans, are facing a special challenge. Promoting pos...
Die COVID-19-Pandemie führte zu einem Anstieg psychischer Erkrankungen bei Kindern, Jugendlichen und jungen Erwachsenen bei gleichzeitig eingeschränktem Therapiezugang. Dadurch entstand ein dringender Bedarf zur Entwicklung neuer Online-Interventionen. in diesem Artikel wird basierend auf einem systematischen Review und eine MetaAnalyse ein umf...

Introduction
The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to evaluate the efficacy of narrative-based interventions (NBIs) for individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Investigating the efficacy of NBIs should yield insight on autobiographical memory (AM) phenomena implicated in PTSD onset and recovery, leading to improved...
Underlying social learning and other important aspects of successful adaptation to social life is social awareness, where individuals are required to pay attention and respond flexibly to others in their environment. We tested the influence of social context (alone, affiliate, non-affiliate, heterospecific) on behavioural interactions (manipulation...
Dieser Beitrag gibt einen Einblick in die Theorie der Integrativen Therapie als ein humanistisches, tiefenpsychologisch fundiertes Verfahren. Der Ursprung liegt in den 1960er Jahren, die Gründer*innen sind vor allem Hilarion G. Petzold, Johanna Sieper und Ilse Orth. Von der Entstehungsgeschichte zur Anthropologie des schöpferischen Menschen, von de...
Was sind kreative Medien? Wie können erlebnisorientierte Angebote in der integrativen therapeutischen Praxis eingesetzt werden? Wie kann schöpferisches Tun die Arbeit mit Patient:innen fördern und den Prozess der Heilung unterstützen? In diesem schulenübergreifenden Grundlagenwerk beschreiben erfahrene Praktiker:innen, wie Musik, Kunst und Tanz, Ge...
Einführung in die störungsspezifische Arbeit mit kreativen Medien in der Psychotherapie
Glossar zum Buch: Kreative Medien in der Psychotherapie - Perspektiven für die Praxis
Einführung in das Buch Kreative Medien in der Psychotherapie
In den letzten Jahren reduziert sich die skeptische Grundhaltung von Personen in psychosozialen Berufsfeldern gegenüber der Nutzung von Onlinemedien zunehmend. Dadurch entwickeln sich neue Ansätze und Umsetzungen im digitalen Raum - so auch beim Arbeiten mit kreativen Medien. Die Interventionsmöglichkeiten sind vielfältig und können nach Art des Ko...
Bei der Behandlung von Traumafolgestörungen können kreative Medien unterschiedliche Funktionen erfüllen, z. B., das Unaussprechliche nonverbal auszudrücken oder durch sichere Orte zu verbalisieren und kreativ umzusetzen. Der Einsatz kreativer Methoden kann in unterschiedlichen Phasen angedacht werden: bei dem anfänglichen Beziehungsaufbau oder der...
Die Sichtweise von Kreativität als anthropologische Größe, die sich in Ausdruck und Gestaltung von Wahrgenommenem und im Ausprobieren von Neuem zeigt, ist die Grundlage für den Einsatz von Medien in der Integrativen Therapie. Dabei wird der Medienbegriff weit gefasst von Sachmedien über Handlungsmedien bis hin zu personalen Medien. Eingebettet in e...

Was können Jugendliche tun, wenn sie sich im Gedankenkarussell befinden und sich niemandem an-vertrauen können, selbst keine Antworten auf Fragen finden? Wer kann ihnen dabei helfen, diese Ge-danken freizulassen und loszulassen, um wieder Zuversicht zu gewinnen? Die Online-Chatplattform open2chat bietet einen geschützten und anonymen Raum, gar eine...
Self-control, the ability to resist temptation and wait for better but delayed possibilities, is an important cognitive skill that underpins decision-making and planning. The capacity to exert self-control has been linked to intelligence in humans, chimpanzees and most recently cuttlefish. Here, we presented 10 Eurasian jays, Garrulus glandarius ,...
English Abstract: Austrian adolescents often suffer from psychological stress and mental illness-a condition that was exacerbated by the CoVid-pandemic. Accessing support services such as therapies and counselling is difficult for many young people due to a lack of personal and structural resources; stigma and lack of information also mean that pro...
Adolescence is a crucial developmental time, and it is essential to ensure stable mental health during the transition to adulthood. Peer-to-peer networks seem to be a promising tool to support adolescents during that time. While co-development often concentrates on the end-user, this paper focuses on the peer facilitators of an online peer encourag...
Preregistration for an investigation into what role schizotypy plays in the ability to take another agent's perspective and in different language contexts.

The Foreign Language Effect (FLE) proposes that adults behave more rationally in a second-language rather than mother-tongue context. In a series of perspective-taking experiments we investigated the potential for a reduced effect of egocentrically biasing privileged information in German-English adult bilinguals when it was presented in their seco...

Introduction and hypothesis
The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is, looking at different care settings, to examine prevalence rates of psychological distress-level comorbidities in female interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) patients, their impact on Quality of Life (QoL), and the correlation between such comorbiditi...
Zusammenfassung
Im Jugendalter stehen Menschen vor einer Reihe an Entwicklungsaufgaben und biographischen Herausforderungen. Nicht immer fühlen sich die Jugendlichen den Problemen gewachsen, die dieser Lebensabschnitt mit sich bringt und so kommt es mitunter zu erheblichen psychischen Belastungen sowie zu Konflikten und Krisen. Die COVID-19-Pandemi...
Preregistration for an investigation into whether self-assessment of schizotypal traits vary according to the language context of the assessment (first vs. second language).
Samuel, S., & Boeckle, M. (2021, November 9). Bilingualism & Schizotypy. Retrieved from www.osf.io/zdg6m
The ability to exert self-control varies within and across taxa. Some species can exert self-control for several seconds whereas others, such as large-brained vertebrates, can tolerate delays of up to several minutes. Advanced self-control has been linked to better performance in cognitive tasks and has been hypothesized to evolve in response to sp...

Die Wissenschaften sind eine systematische Auseinandersetzung mit Phänomenen, Prozessen, Objekten etc. Dabei gibt es unterschiedliche Herangehensweisen. Zum einen können geisteswissenschaftliche (theoretische), zum anderen naturwissenschaftliche (empirische) Untersuchungen voneinander unterschieden werden. Geisteswissenschaften beschäftigen sich da...
Since 2018, the D.O.T. (die offene Tür – the open door) research group at the Karl Landsteiner Private University has been working on complex interventions to strengthen social cohesion and the mental well-being of children and young people. The research group emerged from a Citizen Science project by the Ludwig Boltzmann Society and has already be...
Preregistered Methodology for the paper: New Caledonian crows plan for specific future tool use
http://dx.doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2020.1490
This video is the supporting information video for the paper: New Caledonian crows flexibly plan for specific future tool use. Data was collected during the field season 2018 in New Caledonia. It shows an individual being tested in a future planning paradigm. Crows are given alternating trials condition 3 and 4, where they see the platform apparatu...
Prior Experience Tool Use Training: To train crows to use a stone as a tool, subjects were first trained to drop stones into the dispenser apparatus by placing small pieces of meat underneath a stone, which was placed on the edge to the opening of the dispenser. The pieces of meat gradually decreased in size and once the crow started pushing the st...
The ability to plan for future events is one of the defining features of human intelligence. Whether non-human animals can plan for specific future situations remains contentious: despite a sustained research effort over the last two decades, there is still no consensus on this question. Here, we show that New Caledonian crows can use tools to plan...
The soft-bodied cephalopods including octopus, cuttlefish, and squid are broadly considered to be the most cognitively advanced group of invertebrates. Previous research has demonstrated that these large-brained molluscs possess a suite of cognitive attributes that are comparable to those found in some vertebrates, including highly developed percep...
Eurasian jays (Garrulus glandarius) do not habitually use tools, yet they can be trained to solve object-dropping tasks, i.e., to insert a tool into an apparatus to release a food reward. Previous research suggests that these jays can learn a preference toward functional tools-objects allowing them to obtain a food reward placed inside an apparatus...
Due to a legislative amendment in Austria to determine breath alcohol (BrAC) instead of blood alcohol (BAC) in connection with traffic offences, many results of blood alcohol calculations were simply converted using distinct conversion factors. In Austria, the transformation of BAC to BrAC was carried out by using a factor of 1:2000, which, however...
In adult humans, decisions involving the choice and use of tools for future events typically require episodic foresight. Previous studies suggest some non-human species are capable of future planning; however, these experiments often cannot fully exclude alternative learning explanations. Here, we used a novel tool-use paradigm aiming to address th...
The ability to make profitable decisions in natural foraging contexts may be influenced by an additional requirement of tool-use, due to increased levels of relational complexity and additional work-effort imposed by tool-use, compared with simply choosing between an immediate and delayed food item. We examined the flexibility for making the most p...
Direct replication studies follow an original experiment’s methods as closely as possible. They provide information about the reliability and validity of an original study’s findings. The present paper asks what comparative cognition should expect if its studies were directly replicated, and how researchers can use this information to improve the r...

Information about novel environments or foods can be gathered via individual or social learning. Whereas individual learning is assumed to be more costly and less effective than social learning, it also yields more detailed information. Juveniles are often found to be more explorative than adults. Still under the protection of their parents, this a...
Self‐control is critical for both humans and nonhuman animals because it underlies complex cognitive abilities, such as decision‐making and future planning, enabling goal‐directed behavior. For instance, it is positively associated with social competence and life success measures in humans. We present the first review of delay of gratification as a...
In cities and densely populated areas, several corvid species are considered nuisance animals. In Austria, particularly carrion (Corvus corone) and hooded crows (C. cornix) are regarded as pests by the general public that frequently cause damage to crops, feed on human waste, and thus spread trash. We conducted a detailed one-year field survey to e...
Data S1. Data on the Training Stages and Three Experiments, Related to Figures 1–3
One of the mysteries of animal problem-solving is the extent to which animals mentally represent problems in their minds. Humans can imagine both the solution to a problem and the stages along the way [1–3], such as when we plan one or two moves ahead in chess. The extent to which other animals can do the same is far less clear [4–25]. Here, we pre...
Humans use a variety of cues to infer an object's weight, including how easily objects can be moved. For example, if we observe an object being blown down the street by the wind, we can infer that it is light. Here, we tested whether New Caledonian crows make this type of inference. After training that only one type of object (either light or heavy...
Intelligence in large-brained vertebrates might have evolved through independent, yet similar processes based on comparable socioecological pressures and slow life histories. This convergent evolutionary route, however, cannot explain why cephalopods developed large brains and flexible behavioural repertoires: cephalopods have fast life histories a...
African savanna elephants live in dynamic fission⁻fusion societies and exhibit a sophisticated vocal communication system. Their most frequent call-type is the 'rumble', with a fundamental frequency (which refers to the lowest vocal fold vibration rate when producing a vocalization) near or in the infrasonic range. Rumbles are used in a wide variet...

Theory of Mind (ToM) is one of the most important cognitive mechanisms underpinning social interactions in humans. It is the capacity to represent mental states of oneself and of others in order to understand, predict, and manipulate their behavior or mental states. In the day to day life, we attribute to our fellow humans a mind that has beliefs,...
Auf der diesjährigen Konferenz der SEPI, die wohl als "die internationale Konferenz" für integrative Therapie benannt werden kann, waren mehrere hundert TeilnehmerInnen mit einer offenen, sich gegenseitig fördernden Stimmung anwesend. Das wissenschaftliche Programm als auch das soziale Rahmenprogram war hervorragend gestaltet und bot auf allen Eben...
Die Wirksamkeit von Psychotherapie bei verschiedensten psychischen Störungen ist ausgezeichnet belegt. Dennoch ist die Versorgung psychisch kranker Personen in Österreich alles andere als ideal. Dies hat mehrere Gründe: mangelnde Finanzierung der Psychotherapie auf Kasse, bundesländerspezifische Regelungen zur Finanzierung von Psychotherapie auf Ka...
Background
Acoustic parameters of animal signals have been shown to correlate with various phenotypic characteristics of the sender. These acoustic characteristics can be learned and categorized and thus are a basis for perceivers’ recognition abilities. One of the most demanding capacities is individual recognition, achievable only after repeated...
Background:
Chronic pain (CP) and sleep disorders (SD) are highly prevalent in the general population. However,
comprehensive data regarding the prevalence and characteristics of pain and SD in primary care are rare.
Methods:
From N= 578 patients N= 570 were included within 8 weeks (mean age: 50.8 ± 18.7 years, females:
289). Sociodemographic data,...
The human brain stores memories of past events to guide decision-making about current and future events. Researchers long assumed that animals do not use memories in this way but rather exist in a constant stream of present needs, unable to plan for the future (1). Studies on nonhuman primates and corvids challenge this view and show that some spec...
Fragestellung: Bestimmung der Häufigkeit von somatoformen Syndromen und komorbiden Syndromen (Depression, Angst) in der allgemeinmedizinischen Praxis.
Methode: PHQ-D und ärztliche Einschätzung wurden eingesetzt, um die Häufigkeit somatoformer Syndrome konsekutiver Patienten einer allgemeinärztlichen Praxis in Österreich innerhalb von acht Wochen z...
Theory: Individuals subjected to criminal offences often have to face massive changes in their personal lives. Violence and abuse can cause traumatisation which leads to a great deal of psychological stress. People who become victims of a crime are particularly at risk of developing a psychological disease. The objective of the project is – in coop...
The objective of this study was to estimate the frequency of somatic syndromes and comorbid syndromes (depression, anxiety) in primary care.
»Well, now I’ve got back to where I was before« – A research perspective on work with victims of crime
Victims of crime have been confronted with exceptional situations that can lead to changes in their subjective experiencing and behaviour. The associated traumatisation increases the risk of developing pathological psychological sequelae. It is th...
Eine empirische Studie zum Bedarf an ambulanter Psychotherapie in Österreich und der tatsächlichen Bedarfsabdeckung wird vorgestellt. Im Rahmen der Untersuchung wurde der ambulante Psychotherapiebedarf mittels Schätzmodellen anhand der Gesamtbevölkerung sowie der Prävalenz psychischer Erkrankungen erhoben. Das Behandlungskontingent wurde mittels de...
In anurans, males have larger laryngeal structures than females and produce conspicuous species-specific calls in various social contexts. Knowledge of female vocalisations is not well established and we start by summarising available spectral and behavioural information on calls in females. We then present novel data on female and male calls in St...
Language's intentional nature has been highlighted as a crucial feature distinguishing it from other communication systems. Specifically, language is often thought to depend on highly structured intentional action and mutual mindreading by a communicator and recipient. Whilst similar abilities in animals can shed light on the evolution of intention...
This presentation focuses on the influences of sleep deprivation on pain perception
Background
Conversion Disorders (CD) are prevalent functional disorders. Although the pathogenesis is still not completely understood, an interaction of genetic, neurobiological, and psychosocial factors is quite likely. The aim of this study is to provide a systematic overview on imaging studies on CDs and investigate neuronal areas involved in Mo...
Human language involves combining items into meaningful, syntactically structured wholes. The evolutionary origin of syntactic abilities has been investigated by testing pattern perception capacities in nonhuman animals. New World primates can respond spontaneously to structural changes in acoustic sequences and songbirds can learn to discriminate...
Up to 30% of the population in Western countries suffer from chronic pain. The treatment of chronic pain causes medical and socioeconomic problems. Guided self‐help ( GSH ) might be an effective supplementary treatment, however, the size of this effect is unclear. This meta‐analysis quantifies the effect of GSH on chronic pain. A systematic literat...
In Forschung wie Praxis gelten Interdisziplinarität und Integration inzwischen als selbstverständlich.
