Yayın Exploring the impact of Flash technique on test anxiety among adolescents(SAGE Publications Ltd, 2025-07) Çitil Akyol, Canan; İnci İzmir, Sevim BerrinThis study aims to investigate the specific effects of Flash Technique (FT) on adolescents with test anxiety. This follow-up study consists of 38 adolescents, 14–17 years of age (M = 15.39, SD = 1.13). Pre-post assessments were conducted using the Test Anxiety Inventory (TAI), Scale of Attitudes Negatively Affecting the Performance I/Test (POET), and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) at baseline, at the end of the 4thand 12thweeks of therapy. The FT was applied for 12 weeks, with one weekly session as an intervention. As a result of the therapy process, the baseline means of total BAI scores decreased from 25.26 to 2.18; the baseline means of TAI decreased from 149.79 to 39.13, and the baseline mean of POET decreased from 298.47 to 73.84 at the end of the 12th week of therapy. Also, the baseline means of SUD scores decreased from 9.42 to zero at the end of the 12th week of treatment. All the adolescents showed complete improvement after the 12th week of the FT. The study findings showed that the test anxiety symptoms significantly decreased with the treatment of the FT. FT can be an effective intervention for test anxiety in adolescents.Yayın Therapist's assessment of their patient's session-level emotional processes: validation of the in-session patient affective reactions questionnaire–clinician form(John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2025-08-06) Stefana, Alberto; Ünver, Buket; Vieta, Eduard; Fusar-Poli, Paolo; Youngstrom, Eric ArdenBackground: The current study aimed to evaluate a therapist version of the in‐Session Patient Affective Reactions Questionnaire(SPARQ). The SPARQ was developed to assess a pattern of emotions, thoughts, and behaviors experienced by a patient towardtheir therapist during a session. The SPARQ has existed only as a patient self‐report measure and has demonstrated promise as apsychotherapy process measure. This study intended to validate a complementary clinician‐report version of the questionnaire:the SPARQ‐C.Methods: A sample of licensed mental health clinicians (N = 151) completed the SPARQ‐C along with other measures. Dataanalysis involved exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses (CFA). Reliability and convergent and criterion‐related validityof the SPARQ‐C were also evaluated.Results: The SPARQ‐C preserved the two‐factor structure: positive affect (k = 4, ω total = 0.84) and negative affect (k = 4, ωtotal = 0.70), which correlated r = 0.26. CFA using the a priori model two‐factor model based on the patient‐report versionprovided the following fit indices: χ2[19] = 26.01, CFI = 0.98; TLI = 0.97, RMSEA = 0.05 (90% CI [0.00, 0.09]), and SRMR = 0.05.The SPARQ‐C scales demonstrated convergent and criterion‐related validity with measures of other elements of the therapeuticrelationship, session outcome, and demographic‐clinical variables.Discussion: The SPARQ‐C is a reliable measure suitable for both clinical and research purposes. It allows for a nuancedassessment of patients' session‐level affective responses towards their therapist from the clinician's perspective.
