Exploring the Role of Traumatic Event Exposure in Tobacco Dependence Treatment Outcomes Among African Americans
African Americans are more likely to die from tobacco-related diseases and less likely to quit smoking than their white counterparts. Evidence of greater prevalence of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among African Americans underscores the importance of studying the effects of traumatic event exposure on tobacco dependence treatment outcomes in this group. In this secondary analysis of data from a previously completed randomized control tria…
Patients' anxiety and hope
CONTEXT: Good patient-provider interactions promote satisfaction with health care, adherence to treatment recommendations and improved health. However, little research has examined patients' emotions and how they relate to patients' experiences with health care and their adherence intentions in acute care settings. OBJECTIVE: This study examined the predictors and consequences of two emotions pertinent to the uncertainty of acute health-care expe…
Expectations in the context of gallbladder and hernia surgery

The goal of this study is to describe the types of expectations that hernia and gallbladder patients have for the outcomes of their surgery and to identify relationships between these expectations and both patient- and surgeon-reported variables. DESIGN: Patients (N = 143) at an out-patient surgery clinic completed self-report questionnaires before and after a pre-surgical consu…

This study focused on sexual behaviors in a newly formed group of western lowland gorillas ( Gorilla gorilla gorilla ) housed at Zoo Atlanta. All females engaged in mating outside their conceptive periods, although there was individual variation in the frequency of the behavior. A…
