Anxiety. Anxiety was measured using the State-Trait Anxiety Index, which is a 20-item scale with 4-point Likert scale responses (Speilberger & Vagg, 1984; Spielberger, VanDercar, Greaner, Hibler, & Bloch, 1980). It is important to note that this scale is sensitive to changes in transitory anxiety. An example item from the index includes, “Right now…I am tense; I am worried.” The answer options were in a Likert scale response pattern with (1) “Almost never” to (4) “Almost always.” A total anxiety score was computed by summing all responses. Responses could range from 20-80, with higher scores indicating higher levels of anxiety. The Cronbach's alpha reliability for this scale was 0.941 suggesting excellent internal consistency of scale items (Total Scale Mean= 39.88; SD= 12.54).

Anxiety. The next set of hierarchal regression analyses conducted focused on the outcome of anxiety. The first table presented below in this section, Table 4.5, summarizes the results of the regression analysis conducted on anxiety with Zarit Burden total scores. In this analysis, statistical significance was indicated again with respect to caregiver burden and avoidance coping. In the first model, burden was entered by itself, showing a significant relationship with anxiety (β=0.260, p<0.001). Burden remained significant in the second model, after adding in demographic variables (β=0.174, p=0.001), as well as in the third model, controlling for both demographic variables and other covariates (β=0.132, p=0.017).

Similar to depression, a final model with both caregiver burden and perceived discrimination was conducted. In this regression model, when perceived discrimination was added to the model, burden did remain a significant predictor of anxiety. Discrimination was found to be an independent predictor of anxiety above and beyond the other predictors of anxiety in this sample of caregivers. For each one-unit increase in perceived discrimination, predicted anxiety scores increased by 0.263 units (p=0.048). Additionally, these results indicated that a one-unit increase in the use of avoidant coping was associated with a 0.414 unit increase in anxiety (p=0.008). Overall, the adjusted R-squared in the final model indicated that 35% of the variance in anxiety was explained on the basis of the predictors included in the final model. The R2 change resulted in discrimination explaining close...

  • Screening After you sign and date the consent document, you will begin screening. The purpose of the screening is to find out if you meet all of the requirements to take part in the study. Procedures that will be completed during the study (including screening) are described below. If you do not meet the requirements, you will not be able to take part in the study. The study investigator or study staff will explain why.

HIV is the virus that causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). If your HIV test is positive, you will be told about the results. It may take weeks or months after being infected with HIV for the test to be positive. The HIV test is not always right. Having certain infections or positive test results may have to be reported to the State Department of Health. This includes results for HIV, hepatitis, and other infections. If you have any questions about what information is required to be reported, please ask the study investigator or study staff. Although this testing is meant to be private, complete privacy cannot be guaranteed. For example, it is possible for a court of law to get health or study records without your permission.

  • PSYCHOLOGICAL SERVICES Psychotherapy is not easily described in general statements. It varies depending on the personalities of the psychologist and patient, and the particular problems you hope to address. There are many different methods I may use to deal with those problems. Psychotherapy is not like a medical doctor visit. Instead, it calls for a very active effort on your part. In order for the therapy to be most successful, you will have to work on things we talk about both during our sessions and at home. Psychotherapy can have benefits and risks. Because therapy often involves discussing unpleasant aspects of your life, you may experience uncomfortable feelings like sadness, guilt, anger, frustration, loneliness, and helplessness. When treating insomnia specifically, therapy might cause you to experience increased sleepiness and fatigue, especially in the early phases of treatment. On the other hand, psychotherapy has also been shown to have benefits for people who go through it. Therapy often leads to better relationships, solutions to specific problems, significant reductions in feelings of distress, improved sleep, and less fatigue. But there are no guarantees as to what you will experience. Our first session will involve an evaluation of your needs. By the end of the evaluation, I will be able to offer you some first impressions of what our work will include and a treatment plan to follow, if you decide to continue with me for therapy. You should evaluate this information along with your own opinions about whether you feel comfortable working with me. At the end of the evaluation, I will notify you if I believe that I am not the right therapist for you and if so, I will give you referrals to other practitioners who I believe are better suited to help you. Therapy involves a large commitment of time, money, and energy, so you should be very careful about the therapist you select. If you have questions about my procedures, we should discuss them whenever they arise. If your doubts persist, I will be happy to help you set up a meeting with another mental health professional for a second opinion. Please note that the psychological services I provide are not for emergency situations. For emergencies, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. My fee is $395 for an initial evaluation lasting 90 minutes, and $250 for each subsequent psychotherapy session (either in-person or over the telephone) lasting 45 minutes. I charge this same $250 per 45-minutes rate for other professional services you may need, though I will prorate the cost if I work for periods of less than 45 minutes in increments of 15 minutes, rounded to the nearest 15-minute increment (e.g., 22 minutes of service will be charged for 15 minutes whereas 23 minutes of service will be charged for 30 minutes). Other professional services include telephone conversations or email responses lasting longer than 15 minutes, and the time spent performing any other service you may request of me. If you become involved in legal proceedings that require my participation, you will be expected to pay for any professional time I spend on your legal matter, even if the request comes from another party, at the same $250 per 45-minutes rate. I do not charge for time spent writing reports and progress notes as per the standard routine of my care of you. I also do not charge for any time I may spend collaborating with your other providers. From time to time, I may institute fee increases and these will be discussed and agreed upon ahead of time with a new Treatment Contract. If it has been more than one year since our last appointment, then you will re-initiate services at my current standard fee which may be higher than the fee you were previously paying. In addition, if it has been more than one year since our last appointment, you will be scheduled for another initial evaluation (90 minutes) and charged accordingly, with subsequent 45-minute psychotherapy sessions thereafter. You are responsible for paying your full session fee. I am not in-network with any insurance companies. If you decide to submit claims to your insurance company for reimbursement for any out-of-network benefits you might have, you may do so. However, be aware that the services provided will still be charged to you, not your insurance company, and you are responsible for the full payment. I have no role in deciding what your insurance covers. You are responsible for checking your insurance coverage, deductibles, payment rates, pre-authorization procedures, etc. Missed appointments, late cancellations (i.e., cancellations within 24 hours of service), and telephone session are not typically covered by insurance companies and therefore you will likely be responsible for the full session fee in these instances. If your insurance company doesn’t reimburse you, I am not responsible for refunding you any payment you expected to be reimbursed or otherwise. I will provide you a superbill after each session with the following information that you will need to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement for any out-of-network benefits you might have:
