  • Maintaining physical activity in older adults

    Open AccessJasmine Kotsiopoulos, Irene Giannis et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2025

    The Lines-of-Defense model postulates that older adults should engage in important health goals and behaviors for as long as possible and adjust them downwardly only when they become impossible to pursue. This process is thought to be supported by goal engagement and self-protective control strategies. We tested this model in a 4-year longitudinal study of 236 older adults by predicting the maintenance of physical activity using accelerometers. W…

    Eva Pila, Catherine M Sabiston et al.ARTICLEPsychology & Health2025

    Self-monitoring weight is commonly recommended for higher-weight women with a history of breast cancer, despite evidence demonstrating potentially negative psychological consequences of frequent self-weighing. The extent to which higher-weight women with breast cancer experience emotional and behavioral consequences in response to daily self-weighing is unknown. In this pilot study, women (n = 51) with a history of breast cancer in a behavioral w…

  • Perfectionism and disordered eating in exercise and nutrition professionals

    Open AccessMaryam Marashi, Danika A Quesnel et al.ARTICLEEating Behaviors2025Referências: 46

    Disordered eating (DE) is more prevalent among exercise and nutrition professionals (ENPs) which may be partially due to heightened levels of perfectionism. Self-actualizing strategies such as self-compassion may offer protection against DE but are not well-understood among health and wellness professionals. This cross-sectional study investigated the associations between multidimensional perfectionism (self-oriented, socially prescribed, and oth…

  • Structured exercise programs for higher education students experiencing mental health challenges

    Open AccessIvan Jeftic, B Furzer et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2023

    The incidence of mental illness is greatest among young adults, and those enrolled in higher education may be particularly vulnerable compared to the general young adult population. Many higher education institutions employ student support staff tasked with implementing strategies to improve student wellbeing and mental illness.

  • Predictors of Food and Physical Activity Tracking Among Young Adults

    Open AccessErin K O’loughlin, Maryam Marashi et al.ARTICLEHealth Education & Behavior2023

    BACKGROUND: Monitoring food intake and physical activity (PA) using tracking applications may support behavior change. However, few longitudinal studies identify the characteristics of young adults who track their behavior, findings that could be useful in designing tracking-related interventions. Our objective was to identify predictors of past-year food and PA tracking among young adults. METHODS: Data were available for 676 young adults partic…

  • Body‐related shame disrupts attentional focus over time in adolescence

    Open AccessMadison F Vani, Kristen M Lucibello et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescence2023

    INTRODUCTION: Body-related shame is a negative self-conscious emotion that is heightened during adolescence and is associated with several adverse outcomes. Of particular interest, and informed by Objectification Theory, body-related shame may impact attentional focus because the experience of this intense emotion may limit cognitive resources required to effectively engage in tasks. The purpose of the present study was to examine the association…

  • One of these is not like the other

    Melissa L Dejonge, Madison F Vani et al.ARTICLEQualitative Research in Sport and…2023

    Adolescent sport is predominately organised by single-sex sport environments, where girls and boys compete separately. Enhancing opportunities for all youth to compete together may be important for providing broad sport opportunities for girls in sport, reframing preconceptions about the inferiority of girls’ athleticism, and for situating boys and girls within mutually respectful relationships. Yet, limited research has explored girls’ experienc…
