Article Abstract
Treatment assignment for patients with personality disorders (PDs) involves a complex process consisting of diagnostic assessment and deciding on the most appropriate psychotherapeutic treatment. This article describes the development of a checklist for systematic analysis of life stories to support reflective and transparent assignment of patients to either dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) or schema-focused therapy (SFT). In a first study, an email survey, focus group, and member check were conducted among eight clinical experts to identify relevant dimensions in life stories in patients with PDs. In a second study, a checklist based on these dimensions was developed in three rounds of testing with nine clinical experts and nine psychology students. Checklist results were compared to actual assigned treatment for 20 patients. Systematic evaluation of life stories, is promising in supporting the allocation of patients with PDs to a suitable treatment approach by focusing on specific and consensual dimensions in patients' life stories.

Language learning and use relies on domain-specific, domain-general cognitive and sensory-motor functions. Using fMRI during story listening and behavioral tests, we investigated brain-behavior associations between linguistic and non-linguistic measures in individuals with varied multilingual experience and reading skills, including typical reading participants (TRs) and dyslexic readers (DRs). Partial Least Square Correlation revealed a main component linking cognitive, linguistic, and phonological measures to amodal/associative brain areas.

Kinematic alignment is increasingly adopted in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) as a patient-specific strategy to restore native joint anatomy. However, its reliance on static radiographic measurements may not adequately reflect real-world functional biomechanics. This editorial underscores the importance of complementing static assessment with kinetic principles.

Little is known about time-use related to health management of individuals with tetraplegia (motor and/or sensory loss originating in the cervical spine) and the influence on participation in occupations. The purpose was to explore the time-use of an individual with tetraplegia to understand factors that contributed to changes in health-management routines over time. Narrative inquiry was used to collect data via observation, time-use log, and interviews.

Objective: Pressure injuries (PIs) remain a significant challenge in both hospital and community-based care in Norway. Despite being largely preventable, their prevalence remains high, with serious consequences for patients, caregivers and the healthcare system. Our digital wound projects have explored the lived experiences, systemic burden, and innovative responses to PI prevention and care, drawing from both quantitative data and qualitative insights.
