The present paper addresses the issue of transdisciplinarity in specialist training, with par-ticular attention to the field of Health Psychology. Starting from the bio-psycho-social model, strongly oriented towards the integration of the various disciplines, critical issues and possibil-ities related to the applicability of the transdisciplinary orientation in training are developed.Although the Reorganization of the Didactic Regulations of the SSUAP (i.e. Post-graduate High School in Psychological Area) of the 2019 suggests that psychological training activities should be supported by those relating to other disciplines, the proposal seems to be characterized by a multidisciplinary perspective, far from a complex, non-hierarchical, hetero-geneous, inclusive and open to unpredictable developments such as the transdisciplinary one. Teaching methodologies could constitute the field for the development of a transdisciplinary approach, representing an evolutionary opportunity from a professional point of view. The systemic, co-constructive and developmental models are the background to this training and transformation process, while laboratories and supervised professional practice could repre-sent elective places where students can experience the transdisciplinary approach, maintaining spaces for reflection and tutoring. Furthermore, the realization of events (i.e. workshops) and the development of training and research-action projects, shared between the post-graduate Health Psychology Schools promoted by Universities, can represent moments of intersection in the constitution of a train-ing network based on transdisciplinarity.

Abstract: Stefania Cataudella, Nicola Congiu, Giulia Langiu
The Covid-19 pandemic has influenced many aspects of life, including birth and the transition to motherhood. A narrative review was conducted to evaluate the psychological impact of Covid-19 pandemic on perinatal period. Italian, European and International studies were com-pared.Studies were identified using Scopus and Google Scholar databases for the period be-tween March and October 2020. Thirty-six studies met the inclusion criteria. All the studies, focused mainly in the prenatal period, have shown increased stress, anxie-ty and depressive symptoms. Family support, partner support, secure attachment and correct information emerged as protective factors. The perinatal period represents a period of vulnera-bility but has received little attention in its psychological implications. Perinatal care service need to consider that this situation, such as the current pandemic, can exacerbate some aspects of women’s vulnerability, both from a medical and psychological perspective. This can have consequences for the well-being of the mother-child couple.

Fibromyalgia is a condition of widespread musculoskeletal pain that is associated with fa-tigue, rigidity, insomnia, mood alterations. This syndrome has important consequences for daily life. Fibromyalgia is still underdiagnosed and both the etiopathogenesis and the differen-tial diagnosis are unclear, especially with other conditions of widespread chronic pain. Among the factors contributing to the maintenance of the condition, catastrophizing has gained particular interest. The aim of this study was to compare symptoms in patients diag-nosed with Fibromyalgia (FM; n = 27) and diagnosed with Chronic Widespread Pain (CWP; n = 27) and investigate the predictors of reported pain outcomes. All patients completed the following questionnaires: McGill Pain Questionnaire (MPQ), West Haven Yale Multidimen-sional Pain Inventory (WHY-MPI), Pain Related Self-Statement Scale (PRSS), Pain Related Control Scale (PRSS). The surface electromyography (EMG) at rest for 5 minutes was also detected in correspondence with the left upper trapezius muscle and the frontal muscle. On questionnaires, FM patients had greater catastrophizing (p

Abstract: Mattia Mazzarese, Caterina Primi, Maria Anna Donati
Peer education is a widespread approach at the international level in the field of adolescents’ risky behaviours. Nevertheless, only one study systematically assessed the effectiveness of this approach in addiction prevention. The purpose of this systematic review was to overcome this deficiency by evaluating the effectiveness of peer education interventions aimed at preventing adolescents’ addictive behaviours, such as substance use and gambling. After having analysed the relevant articles identified through four databases (Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus e PsycINFO), fifteen studies meeting predefined eligibility criteria have been included in the qualitative summary. Seven of these studies focused on tobacco, four on alcohol, three on non-better specified substances, and one on multiple substances consumption. No studies aimed at gambling prevention have been identified. The quality assess-ment of the studies has been conducted through a specific standardized tool and revealed many critical issues relating to the research tools and methods used. Only three studies met the criteria requested to be classified as qualitatively moderate - the others have been classified as weak. In the aforementioned studies, modest evidence about the effectiveness of the interven-tions on the prevention of alcohol or tobacco consumption was found. Overall, the interven-tions showed significant effects mainly upon knowledge, and to a lesser extent upon attitudes and behaviours. Therefore, evidence of the effectiveness of the peer education method in pre-venting adolescents’ addictions is still weak.

Abstract: Alberta Xodo, Monica Conz, Sara Vianello, Luana Buffon
We interviewed 55 children and adolescents from Treviso province to understand how they experienced their confinement at home due to public health reasons, during the first ten days of lockdown set by Prime Minister Decree on 9th March 2020. The narrative interview showed how children had a good knowledge of the main characteristics both of the pandemic and of the precautions set by law since the very early days of the confinement. The knowledge came from communications among adults or from TV programs, leaving children in a state of anguish managed mainly through individual coping strategies and seldom with the help of adults. The adherence to precautionary measures limited fear and reinforced the bond within the family, by means of the sense of belonging to the family culture and the distinction from other adults that were perceived as enemies or not allied with them. The research encourages involving children in qualitative interview about them because they are active subjects in health generation.

Abstract: Luigina Canova, Andrea Bobbio, Anna Maria Manganelli
The study explores the role of anticipated regret in the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB; Ajzen, 1991) applied to the consumption of fruit as snack. The hypothesized model extends the TPB with the inclusion of past behavior and anticipated regret. The main objectives are: a) to test whether anticipated regret improves the predictive power of TPB, even after considering past behavior; b) to analyze whether regret moderates the relationship between intention and behavior. The study was conducted in two phases, with a time leg of two weeks. In the first phase, the online structured questionnaire included measures of intention and its antecedents and items to detect past behavior and anticipated regret. In the second, the behavior of eating fresh fruit as snack in the previous two weeks was surveyed. A convenience sample of 361 Italian university students participated in the study. Results of the regression analyses proved that past behavior and anticipated regret improve the ability of the TPB to predict both inten-tion and future behavior. Furthermore, regret moderates the effect of intention on behavior, which is significant only when regret is high. In conclusion, the results support the importance of considering anticipated regret in predicting the intentions of implementing this healthy eat-ing behavior, and the usefulness of leveraging on this anticipated affect to reinforce the inten-tion-behavior link.

Abstract: Elisa Colì, Giada Pavanello, Rino Falcone
The study investigated the relationship between patients with rheumatoid arthritis and rheumatologist during the Covid-19 pandemic, with particular attention to the social represen-tation of this relationship, the trust placed in one’s rheumatologist, and the changes introduced by the pandemic. The research, carried out with an ad hoc questionnaire administered online, involved 135 people with rheumatoid arthritis (age M = 49).The results show that the social representation of the medical-patient relationship is struc-tured around the willingness of the rheumatologist and the trust placed in him, elements that make up the central core of the representation. Aspects such as competence and professional-ism seem to play a marginal role in this particular period and are located in the distant periphery. Overall, trust, which plays a leading role in adherence to medical care, seems to be based on skills relating to patient engagement and willingness to refer to other specialists. During the pandemic, just over half of the sample recorded an increase in trust towards the rheumatolo-gist. This event seems to have strengthened trust existing relationships and eroded already pre-carious trust relationships. The maintenance of the status quo in terms of frequency of contacts with one’s rheumatologist and terms of access to rheumatological visits, as well as the percep-tion of the greater willingness of one’s rheumatologist and the improvement in one’s commu-nication and relational skills, would have contributed to increasing trust in their doctor.
