Finally, completers in both conditions reported high rates of treatment satisfaction.
Completers in both conditions reported high rates of treatment satisfaction (on average over 8 out of ten).
While studies on the efficacy of ultrasonography screening under study conditions reported high sensitivities of 80-90% for antepartal detection of IUGR [ 14, 15], sensitivity in clinical routine (effectiveness) in the late 1990ies and early 2000 was about 25-30% [ 16, 17].
Compared to the non-perfectionist condition, participants in the two perfectionist conditions reported higher levels of state perfectionism during the next 24 h and this effect occurred irrespective of trait perfectionism levels.
Some patients with severe chronic conditions report higher QoL than do healthy individuals [ 15].
For behavioural expectations, participants in the control condition reported higher behavioural expectations than did those in the self-affirmation conditions (Ms 3.03 and 2.74, respectively), b = −.35, t(119) = −2.04, p =.04.
As expected, participants in the incremental ability condition reported higher incremental beliefs (Summer minicourse: M = 4.75, SD = 0.79; follow-up assessment: M = 4.39, SD = 0.87) compared with students in the control condition (Summer minicourse: M = 3.94, SD = 1.06; follow-up assessment: M = 3.99, SD = 1.07).
Although this study is the only controlled study of a popular counseling approach in armed conflict settings, the study has limitations including a lack of randomization, which is of particular concern given that women in the counseling condition reported higher exposure to sexual violence and levels of PTSD symptoms at baseline.
The most common conditions reported included high blood pressure, arthritis, chronic pain, depression, anxiety and asthma.
[hypertension p < 0.001; diabetes p < 0.001; heart disease p=0.042] Other common conditions reported were high cholesterol; musculoskeletal conditions as arthritis, injury or back pain; eye disease (not eyeglasses); and chronic pain.
The number of chronic conditions reported was high, the modal number of chronic illness in addition to HIV was 2 (mean = 3.8, SD = 2.6), with a reported range of 0 15 chronic conditions.
