Background
Subculture is a unique cultural group formed outside the mainstream culture, and emerging niche clothing culture usually refers to some non-traditional, independent brand or style clothing culture. Compulsive personality disorder is a psychological disorder in which patients tend to overly focus on details, order, and perfectionism. For young people with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder, participating in emerging niche clothing culture may have some psychological effects.
Subjects and MethodsSelect 100 patients with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder and randomly divide them into two groups: the experimental group and the control group. The experimental group of patients adopted emerging niche clothing culture and conventional psychological treatment methods, while the control group adopted conventional psychological treatment methods. The experimental period is 3 months, and the treatment effects of patients after 3 months are compared and statistically analyzed using Excel and SPSS23.0.
ResultsThe research results indicate that the combination of emerging niche clothing culture and conventional psychotherapy methods is more likely to obtain a different way of relaxation and decompression compared to conventional psychotherapy methods. This novel rather than traditional clothing style can become a way for them to alleviate the pressure of compulsive thinking and behavior, providing physical and mental comfort.
ConclusionsThe emerging niche clothing culture can provide a unique way for young people with obsessive-compulsive personality disorders to express their individuality and uniqueness. By choosing clothing and styles that are different from mainstream clothing styles, they can express their independent thinking and aesthetic preferences.

Background
Morita therapy, as a treatment for mental illness, aims to enable patients to accept their bad emotions so that they can effectively self-direct and regulate themselves, no longer be controlled by bad emotions, and ultimately eliminate their mental illness. Positive thinking refers to the individual’s purposeful, non-judgmental attention to the here and now. It emphasizes an attitude of acceptance to observe the inner experience, emotion, or behavior in the present moment. The study sought to investigate the effects of Morita therapy combined with positive thinking psychotherapy on the alleviation of mental anxiety disorders in design workers.
Subjects and MethodsCurrently, there have been relevant clinical studies showing that Morita therapy alone is not a good treatment for anxiety disorders. This experiment investigated the therapeutic effect of Morita therapy combined with positive psychotherapy. By means of questionnaires, 120 design workers with little difference in personal information but all suffering from mental anxiety disorders were selected as experimental subjects. The 120 subjects were randomly divided into three groups: subjects in group A were treated with Morita therapy combined with Shoujo psychotherapy, subjects in group B were treated with Morita therapy alone, and subjects in group C were treated with Shoujo psychotherapy alone. The whole course of treatment lasted for 3 months. The anxiety scores of the subjects before and after the experiment were recorded using the self-administered psychological anxiety scale.
ResultsIn group A, the number of people suffering from severe anxiety, moderate anxiety, mild anxiety, and mental health before starting the experiment was 8, 30, 2, and 0, respectively, and after the mixed treatment, the number of people under each index became 0, 0, 8 and 32, respectively. In group B, the number of people suffering from severe anxiety, moderate anxiety, mild anxiety, and mental health before starting the experiment was 8, 29, 3, and 0, respectively, and after the Morita treatment, the number became 6, 16, 15 and 3, respectively. In Group C, the number of people suffering from severe anxiety, moderate anxiety, mild anxiety, and mental health before the experiment started was 6, 30, 4, and 0, respectively, and after the positive psychotherapy, the number changed to 3, 19, 13 and 5, respectively.

The reason for this is that the operable psychological training program based on the principles of acceptance, trust, patience, and non-imposition of positive thinking training is more in line with the “let nature take its course” theory of Morita therapy, so the combination of the two therapies can play a complementary role. Therefore, the combination of the two therapies can play a complementary role.

Pistachio nuts are a nutrient-dense source of good quality plant protein, commonly consumed as a minimally processed snack food or ingredient. The present paper is based on a symposium held during the 13th FENS (Federation of European Nutrition Societies) 2019 conference in Dublin that explored recent research and practical applications of pistachios as a plant-based snack, in particular, for appetite control and healthy weight management; and for glycaemic control during pregnancy. Individual nut types, whilst similar in nutritional composition, have unique characteristics which may have a significant impact on potential health effects. Recognising this, the further purpose here is to explore future research needs for pistachios, based on work completed to date and the discussion that ensued among researchers at this event, in order to advance the full scope of health benefits from pistachios, in particular, taking into account of both sustainability and nutritional health.
