An Exploratory Study of Violent Media Consumption and Aggression in Black College Students
One-hundred Black college students attending a historically Black college and university (HBCU) on the east coast of the United States participated in a study intended to explore and provide baseline information on the relationship between violent media consumption and aggression in Black college students. Results suggest that, consistent with college students and emerging adults in general, Black college students are heavy users of violent media…
Community Translation of Fall Prevention Interventions
Unintentional falls increase morbidity and mortality in older adults. The consequences of falls for older adults and their families and communities support the need for evidence-based fall prevention programming that can be implemented effectively on a community-wide basis. However, translating research findings into communities is an ongoing challenge for public health. The Interactive Systems Framework for Dissemination and Implementation descr…
Translating a Fall Prevention Intervention Into Practice
Objectives. We examined whether community translation of an effective evidence-based fall prevention program via standard monetary support can produce a community-wide reduction in fall injuries in older adults and evaluated whether an enhanced version with added technical support and capacity building amplified the fall reduction effect. Methods. We completed a randomized controlled community trial among adults aged 65 and older in (1) 10 contro…
A Model to Translate Evidence-Based Interventions Into Community Practice
There is a tension between 2 alternative approaches to implementing community-based interventions. The evidence-based public health movement emphasizes the scientific basis of prevention by disseminating rigorously evaluated interventions from academic and governmental agencies to local communities. Models used by local health departments to incorporate community input into their planning, such as the community health improvement process (CHIP), …
Challenges in the Evaluation and Implementation of School-Based Prevention and Intervention Programs on Sensitive Topics
The current emphasis on best practices for school-based health and mental health programs brings with it the demand for evaluation efforts in schools. This article describes the challenges of launching a successful school program and evaluation, with lessons learned from three projects that focus on intimate partner violence. The authors discuss issues related to constraints on the research design in schools, the recruitment of schools and partic…
Factors Predictive of Boundary Ambiguity After Divorce
This study examined factors predictive of the degree of boundary ambiguity experienced by individuals an average of two years after divorce. Predictor variables (based on family stress theory) included: demographic characteristics, additional stressors experienced, the amount of child support payments exchanged, a sense of confidence in one's abilities, support from former spouse, and support from others. Results indicated that stressful life eve…
