Our new study is out on #alexithymia and #autism. The findings have important implications for understanding the role of alexithymia (emotion processing deficits) in autism and social-emotional functioning. @Curtin_enAble Curtin University Psychology UWA Psychological Science tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

How should we define #alexithymia? In this paper, we study the structure of alexithymia using factor analysis. We find that difficulty daydreaming is not part of alexithymia. Statistically, alexithymia is about difficulties in #emotion processing only. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

How does #alexithymia impact #EmotionRegulation? In our new study, we find alexithymia is linked to an emotion regulation profile characterized by emotional avoidance across domains of emotional expression, social interaction, and problem-solving. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

There is ongoing debate about the definition of #alexithymia. In our new study, we show that constricted imaginal processes (difficulty daydreaming) is not part of alexithymia. Alexithymia is centrally about deficits in #emotion processing: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Dr. David Preece (@drdavidpreece) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Do #alexithymia questionnaires actually measure alexithymia or how #distressed people are? It depends. Our new study finds that the PAQ has strong validity, but the TAS-20 has discriminant validity problems and is confounded by people's distress levels doi.org/10.1016/j.jad.…

There are both cognitive-behavioral and psychoanalytic approaches to defining #alexithymia. In our new study, we find the cognitive-behavioral formulation of alexithymia has higher #ClinicalRelevance - better predicting a wide range of psychopathologies: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
