You can’t just eat 16 teaspoons of sugar so why would you drink 16 teaspoons’ worth of sugar?”
Labels conveying the amount of sugar in a beverage in teaspoons were perceived as highly factual, relatable and interpretable, and as having the greatest potential to impact consumption attitudes and intentions. Further quantitative studies are required to compare the potential effectiveness of the teaspoons of sugar labels in reducing purchasing and consumption behaviour than other alternative warning labels, such as health effects or "high in" …
A randomised online experimental study to compare responses to brief and extended surveys of health-related quality of life and psychosocial outcomes among women with breast cancer
Child Mental Health Symptoms Following Parental Deployment
The current study examined the impact of active duty service members' symptoms following a combat deployment on child mental health symptoms. Soldiers from a brigade combat team ( N = 974) participated in the study 2 months following return from a 15-month combat deployment to Afghanistan, of which 169 soldiers (17.3%) reported having at least one child living at home. Results supported two research hypotheses examining the interrelationship betw…
Community Needs Among Service Members After Return From Combat Deployment
To build on research concerning the development of postdeployment community‐based programs, we surveyed active duty soldiers from two Brigade Combat Teams (N = 693; N = 1,385) after return from a combat deployment. The Brigade Combat Teams were located on different installations in rural areas representing 2 large military communities. The survey included an assessment about a range of community services (social events, cultural integration oppor…

Handling bodies after violent death
Interviews with and observations of experienced and inexperienced personnel were conducted to determine their coping strategies before, during, and after their work with the bodies of people who had died violently. Avoidance, denial, and social support from the work group and spouse appeared to facilitate coping. The implications of these findings for therapeutic intervention are discussed
Community consultation following a major air disaster
United Airlines flight 232 crashed at Sioux City, Iowa, on July 19, 1989. The primary rescue workers were the men and women from the 185th Air National Guard Group. Because of the many deaths and massive destruction caused by the crash, a psychiatric consultation team was requested by the U.S. Air Force Surgeon General to assist the Air National Guard personnel. The consultation had four goals: (1) provide consultation to the Air National Guard o…
Psychological responses of rescue workers
The psychological responses of two groups of fire fighters were examined following the performance of rescue work. Four types of responses were reported: identification with the victims, feelings of helplessness and guilt, fear of the unknown, and physiological reactions. Stress was found to be mediated by availability of social support, type of leadership, level of training, and use of rituals. Implications of these findings for preventive inter…
The shared experience of catastrophe
Based on observational and interview data following a major air crash, a classification of individuals affected by catastrophe is proposed in which degree of involvement is used to characterize the dynamic nature of the disaster community. The model encompasses individual and group activities, roles and relationships, and the shared meaning of the traumatic event. Implications for the identification of neglected participants and for preventive co…
The Impact of a Military Air Disaster on The Health of Assistance Workers
The worst peacetime disaster in United States Army history occurred on December 12, 1985 in Gander, Newfoundland. A charter airline carrying 248 soldiers home from peacekeeping duties in the Sinai Desert crashed after a refueling stop, killing all on board. After the crash, Army family assistance workers were appointed to help the surviving family members of each dead soldier. While substantial attention has been paid to the impact of sudden disa…
