Sex and Relationships in Later Life
The aim of this study was to explore the sexual lives of older adults in the UK to elucidate their experiences of sexual changes and problems, and the role of intimacy and interpersonal support in coping with these changes. We conducted in-depth semi-structured interviews with 31 participants (aged 66-92, mean = 74, 16 women and 15 men), analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. Our analysis generated three themes: Sexual Changes are "Natural,"…
Older adults' embodied experiences of aging and their perceptions of societal stigmas toward sexuality in later life
From substance to process
Research suggests that a ‘placebo’ can improve conditions common in primary care including pain, depression and irritable bowel syndrome. However, disagreement persists over the definition and clinical relevance of placebo treatments. We conducted a meta-ethnographic, mixed-research systematic review to explore how healthcare professionals and patients understand placebos and their effects in primary care. We conducted systematic literature searc…

Peer support critical elements and experiences in supporting the homeless
Peer supporters are individuals with lived experience and are an integral part of health care systems, providing support to those affected by various phenomena such as homelessness and addictions. However, little is known about the critical elements that underpin peer support interventions. This qualitative study sought to understand the critical elements of intentional peer support with a homeless population, voiced by those who provide and/or r…
Measuring young women's self-efficacy for healthy eating
Healthy eating in women of childbearing age is critical to the health of future generations. Interventions that increase women's dietary self-efficacy may be particularly effective at improving healthy eating. However, no validated tool exists to measure self-efficacy for healthy eating in this specific population. We therefore designed a new questionnaire (the 8-Item Self-Efficacy for Healthy Diet Scale) using a think-aloud study and expert pane…
Development and initial validation of the Perceptions of Parental Illness Questionnaire
The Perceptions of Parental Illness Questionnaire was developed based on interviews with 15 adolescents with a parent with multiple sclerosis and refined using cognitive interviews. In total, 104 adolescents with a parent with multiple sclerosis then completed the Perceptions of Parental Illness Questionnaire and adjustment measures at two time points 6 months apart. Principal component analysis resulted in 11 Perceptions of Parental Illness Ques…
Patients' appraisals of public and private healthcare
Patients have previously reported differences in their experiences of treatments received in the public and private sectors; it remains unclear whether such perceived differences are particular to or shared across different interventions. This study explored whether patients' appraisals of public and private treatments are similar when appraising a complementary therapy (osteopathy) compared to a mainstream therapy (physiotherapy). Thirty-five qu…
Participants' Experiences of Being Debriefed to Placebo Allocation in a Clinical Trial
Participants in placebo-controlled clinical trials give informed consent to be randomized to verum or placebo. However, researchers rarely tell participants which treatment they actually received. We interviewed 4 participants in a trial of acupuncture for irritable bowel syndrome before, during, and after they received a course of placebo treatments over 6 weeks. During the final interview, we informed participants that they had received a cours…

Treat or Treatment
Objectives. We analyzed how patients use complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) and examined how patients’ perspectives relate to existing, expert-led taxonomies. Methods. We conducted semistructured interviews with 46 people who used CAM in southern England, then performed a qualitative thematic analysis of the interviews. Results. CAM appeared to be used in 4 different ways: as treats, and as alternative, complementary, or conventional tr…
A Systematic Review of Beliefs Involved in the Use of Complementary and Alternative Medicine
People might be attracted to and use complementary and alternative medicines (CAM) because they hold beliefs that are congruent with CAM. This article collates, examines and synthesizes the evidence surrounding this hypothesis. Most studies are cross-sectional and focus on a limited number of beliefs. Multivariate studies suggest that beliefs related to control and participation, perceptions of illness, holism and natural treatments, and general …
Constructing Agency in Treatment Decisions
People belonging to cancer patient support groups participated in focus groups concerning their experiences of orthodox and complementary medicine. Their accounts of treatment decisions for cancer were analysed through discourse analysis. Accounts of both complementary and orthodox medicine addressed an ideological dilemma concerning the positioning of individuals as active or passive. Active positions were congruent with the everyday value of au…
