Psychological Therapy for Premenstrual Emotional Symptoms
Abstract
Four women with cyclical changes in negative emotions related to their menstrual cycle were treated individually with a combination of psychological interventions, These included problem solving, autogenic training, and anxiety and anger control strategies. Cognitive issues and attributional patterns were also considered. Analysis of symptoms using permutation statistics indicated significant improvements. The problems of open trials and extrapolation from case reports are noted. Important clinical issues which arise in psychological intervention for premenstrual emotional symptoms are also considered.

Taking part in an intervention for PMDs can reduce psychological premenstrual symptoms and premenstrual distress.
“The finding of significant differences across time when the groups are collapsed (ignoring the intervention group assignment), confirms previous reports [10, 13, 14] that taking part in an intervention for PMDs can reduce psychological premenstrual symptoms and premenstrual distress [15, 16, 18, 20, 72, 73].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
