    Input: OBJECTIVES Self-criticism and reassurance are important mechanisms for regulating negative emotions but relatively little attention has been paid to interventions aim ed at improving them . DESIGN This study explored the use of an expressive writing task to increase self-reassurance and reduce self-criticism using a r and omized controlled design . METHOD A total of 46 participants wrote either  about life goals ( the expressive writing task , n= 23 ) or a control topic ( a review of a recent book or film , n= 23 ) for 15 min , three times within an hour . Measures of self-criticism/self-reassurance , stress , and positive affect were completed at baseline and at 2-week follow-up . The  Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count ( LIWC ) was used to analyse the writing of participants in the ' life goals ' condition to identify psychological processes that might differentiate those who improved and those who did not . RESULTS While there were no significant changes in self-reported stress or positive affect , participants writing about life goals decreased in their levels of self-criticism at 2-week follow-up relative to participants writing about control topics . Text analysis showed that experimental participants using words that imply the possibility of doubt or failure , including use of the subjunctive tense ( e.g. , could , would , should ) , were least likely to decrease their self-criticism . CONCLUSION . Expressive writing shows promise as a means by which people may decrease in their self-criticism . Future research should determine whether such experimentally induced changes in self-criticism lead to the improvements in psychological health that is implied by previous cross-sectional research Growing evidence suggests that well-being interventions can be effective . However , it is unclear whether happiness-increasing practice s are equally effective for individuals from different cultural background s. To investigate this question , Anglo Americans and predominantly foreign-born Asian Americans were r and omly assigned to express optimism , convey gratitude , or list their past experiences ( control group ) . Multilevel analyses indicated that participants in the optimism and gratitude conditions reported enhanced life satisfaction relative to those in the control condition . However , Anglo Americans in the treatment conditions demonstrated larger increases in life satisfaction relative to Asian Americans , while both cultural groups in the control condition showed the least improvement . These results are consistent with the idea that the value individualist cultures place on self-improvement and personal agency bolsters the efforts of Anglo Americans to become more satisfied , whereas collectivist cultures ’ de-emphasis of self-focus and individual goals interferes with the efforts of Asian Americans to pursue enhanced well-being This study examined the influence of expressive writing on working memory capacity ( WMC ) , a component of executive function . Japanese undergraduates ( N=104 ) were individually tested across six separate experimental sessions ( baseline , three writing , and two follow-up sessions at 1 and 5 weeks ) . Participants were r and omly assigned to write about a traumatic experience , their best possible future selves ( BPS ) , or a trivial topic for 20 minutes . WMC tests were completed at baseline and follow-ups . Results indicate that expressive writing about traumatic experience can improve WMC at 5 weeks after writing , but that writing about BPS or trivial topics has no effect on WMC Most systematic review s rely substantially on the assessment of the method ological quality of the individual trials . The aim of this study was to obtain consensus among experts about a set of generic core items for quality assessment of r and omized clinical trials ( RCTs ) . The invited participants were experts in the field of quality assessment of RCTs . The initial item pool contained all items from existing criteria lists . Subsequently , we reduced the number of items by using the Delphi consensus technique . Each Delphi round comprised a question naire , an analysis , and a feedback report . The feedback report included staff team decisions made on the basis of the analysis and their justification . A total of 33 international experts agreed to participate , of whom 21 completed all question naires . The initial item pool of 206 items was reduced to 9 items in three Delphi rounds . The final criteria list ( the Delphi list ) was satisfactory to all participants . It is a starting point on the way to a minimum reference st and ard for RCTs on many different research topics . This list is not intended to replace , but rather to be used alongside , existing criteria lists 
    Output:
    
These results indicate that the BPS can be considered a valuable Positive Psychology Intervention to improve clients ' wellbeing , and it seems that it might be more effective for older participants and with shorter practice s ( measured as total minutes of practice )
