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/ar…

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

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/ar…

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.

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.
