Recruiting Low-Income African American Men in Mental Health Research
African Americans (AAs) are 20% more likely to develop serious psychological distress compared to Whites but are less likely to use mental health services. The study objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of recruitment strategies to engage AA fathers in a mental health intervention. Using the community-based participatory research (CBPR) approach, a community-academic partnership (CAP) developed and implemented direct and indirect referral …
Comparing, Contrasting, and Integrating Dissemination and Implementation Outcomes Included in the RE-AIM and Implementation Outcomes Frameworks
As the field of dissemination and implementation science matures, there are a myriad of outcomes, identified in numerous frameworks, that can be considered across individual, organizational, and population levels. This can lead to difficulty in summarizing literature, comparing across studies, and advancing translational science. This manuscript sought to (1) compare, contrast, and integrate the outcomes included in the RE-AIM and Implementation …
Evaluating a Two-Level vs. Three-Level Fall Risk Screening Algorithm for Predicting Falls Among Older Adults
Background and Objectives Falls account for the highest proportion of preventable injury among older adults. In an effort to aid clinicians screen, assess, and intervene to decrease fall risk in older adults, the United States’ Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) developed the Stopping Elderly Accidents, Deaths, & Injuries (STEADI) Tool Kit. We referred to our adaptation of the STEADI algorithm as ‘Quick-STEADI’ and compared the pred…
Perceptions of participants and staff of implementing a physical activity program in rural primary care
Adapting an Evidence‐based Cardiovascular Disease Risk Reduction Intervention to Rural Communities
PURPOSE: Using the RE-AIM framework, the primary purpose of this qualitative study was to assess focus group data to generate information on the applicability of an evidence-based cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk intervention developed for an urban setting for rural areas in Nebraska. We also sought to determine potential adaptations that may be necessary to implement the study in a rural setting. The CVD risk reduction intervention is based on …
A higher effort-based paradigm in physical activity and exercise for public health
It is well known that physical activity and exercise is associated with a lower risk of a range of morbidities and all-cause mortality. Further, it appears that risk reductions are greater when physical activity and/or exercise is performed at a higher intensity of effort. Why this may be the case is perhaps explained by the accumulating evidence linking physical fitness and performance outcomes (e.g. cardiorespiratory fitness, strength, and musc…
US Children's Acquisition of Tobacco Media Literacy Skills
Pro-tobacco messages in media play an important role in initiating smoking behavior among children, but can be addressed in health promotion media literacy interventions. Children from Southwest Virginia, US (age range: 8–14, N = 19) who participated in a tobacco media literacy intervention were invited to discuss their learning and understanding of tobacco media literacy in three focus groups. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis and sensi…
Physical activity, quality of life, and weight status in overweight children
The future of health behavior change research
BACKGROUND: It is well documented that the results of most behavioral and health promotion studies have not been translated into practice. PURPOSE: In this article, reasons for this gap, focusing on study design characteristics as a central contributing barrier, are discussed. METHODS: Four reviews of recent controlled studies in work sites, health care, school, and community settings are briefly discussed and summarized. Their implications for f…
The Conceptualization and Effect of Control Beliefs on Exercise Attendance in the Elderly
The purpose of the study was to compare the relative merits of two approaches to the measurement of perceived behavioral control for the prediction of attendance in an exercise program in an elderly population. The first approach was to conceptualize perceived behavioral control in the traditional manner outlined by Ajzen (1987). The second approach was to conceptualize control beliefs as two distinct constructs: scheduling self-efficacy and perc…
