Pers Soc Psychol Bull. 2012 May 2;
Authors: Barnes CD, Brown RP, Osterman LL
Abstract
Using both college students and a national sample of adults, the authors report evidence linking the ideology of masculine honor in the U.S. with militant responses to terrorism. In Study 1, individuals’ honor ideology endorsement predicted, among other outcomes, open-ended hostile responses to a fictitious attack on the Statue of Liberty and support for the use of extreme counterterrorism measures (e.g., severe interrogations), controlling for right-wing authoritarianism, social dominance orientation, and other covariates. In Study 2, the authors used a regional classification to distinguish honor state respondents from nonhonor state respondents, as has traditionally been done in the literature, and showed that students attending a southwestern university desired the death of the terrorists responsible for 9/11 more than did their northern counterparts. These studies are the first to show that masculine honor ideology in the U.S. has implications for the intergroup phenomenon of people’s responses to terrorism.

Candida Abrahamson, (one of our members) made the following comment in response to a reblog I made of an excellent piece that another of our members, Manic Muses, had written….
“I was so appreciative to Manic Musis for this wonderful reference that I actually had to comment twice on her site! It’s an extremely important topic to open to conversation.Candida then goes on to pose this question…
I looked at the original article, and the part that concerns me about it is where participants seem grateful for their manic states–which I believe most BD people have felt, but which is alarming, as depression follows that elevation as surely as night follows day, and I worry that touting the positives of the upper pole might even encourage medication non-compliance.
The summary piece writes, “Participants described a wide range of experiences and internal states that they believed they felt to a far greater intensity than those without the condition. These included increased perceptual sensitivity, creativity, focus and clarity of thought.” Those are results of mania/hypomania.”
“When fellow members feel grateful for their BD–if they, indeed, do–is there something about it for which they’re thankful that is not inherently tied up in a mood swing? Am quite interested in some open dialogue about it.”Given the importance of this subject and indeed the relevance of this question I have copied Candida’s question here so that it does not get missed and would ask members and readers to respond accordingly

For one thing, there are several sets of guidelines, issued by different organizations, and they don’t always agree, said Army Col. David Benedek, M.C., a professor and deputy chair of psychiatry at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda, Md. Most of those guidelines lumped together clinical trials of civilian and military populations.
“Overall, there’s poor evidence for the value of SSRIs but there’s good evidence that they help people with non-combat PTSD,” said Benedek.
Once guidelines have been selected, it’s necessary to get them into the hands of clinicians. The Department of Veterans Affairs and the Deparment of Defense issued combined guidelines in 2010 and 2011. Air Force psychiatrist Lt. Col. Charles Motsinger, M.D., is part of a group working to modify the military electronic health records system and bring them to the point of care in the primary care setting.
The first part of their approach uses office staff to screen patients when they check in. That information goes into the health record and is immediately available to the physician on a computer in the examining room. The physician can then ask more detailed, less structured questions in narrative form. The computer program also provides recommendations for treatment and follow-up, and the physician can add elaborated narrative observations and recommendations for care.
Pilot versions of this new approach are being tested now at Ft. Belvoir, Va., and will be implemented soon in Air Force medical settings.
