Formal regulatory mechanisms were seen as desirable in theory but dysfunctional in practice.
Therefore, it is suggested that parental overprotection engenders insecure attachment (from the perspective of attachment theory) and dysfunctional attitudes (from the perspective of cognitive theory), both of which are characterized by an image of the self as helpless and unworthy.
A considerable body of evidence from both cross-sectional [ 2, 3] and interventional research [ 4] has emerged to support the proposed theory that dysfunctional beliefs play a core role in the etiology and maintenance of obsessions and compulsions.
The results reveal an impairment of a specific NLR pathway in CD monocytes not carrying the disease associated CARD15 variants, and therefore add evidence to the theory of a dysfunctional innate immune response in CD monocytes.
The pathway by which mitochondria are degraded through autophagy is a tightly regulated process, which in theory should degrade dysfunctional mitochondria preventing their age associated accumulation.
Continuation of the CAS is central to the development and maintenance of emotional disorder, although, as in traditional cognitive theory, it is dysfunctional beliefs that are considered key as to why it persists.
Historical examples are given to show the importance of developing scientific transdisciplinary and transcultural theories, to avoid dysfunctional social, medical or ethnocentric practices.
An off-shoot of information processing theory is that sexually dysfunctional participants, whether male or female, are expected to produce lower subjective-genital agreement than sexually functional participants.
Thus, while speculative at this time, it is intriguing to consider that the observed higher plasma 2-HB concentrations with increasing insulin resistance marks dysfunctional biotin tissue bioactivity that would in theory impact BCAA and cysteine/cystine metabolism.
Problematic axis I behaviour such as pathological drinking or gambling, binge eating or obsessive-compulsive behaviour is assigned to the Dysfunctional Coping modes according to the schema theory.
This prediction seems to be in line with disinhibition theory that suggests that socially dysfunctional patients with prefrontal damage have difficulty avoiding a punishment-associated stimulus when that stimulus was previously associated with a reward [ 13, 15, 16, 56].
