Gendered Racism and Anticipated Pregnancy-Specific Stress Among Non-Pregnant Nulliparous Black, Latina, and Multiracial Women
Women of Color’s Experiences of Gendered Racism and Depressive and Anxiety Symptoms in Pregnancy
Stress, Coping, and Psychiatric Symptoms in Pregnant Women in Outpatient Care During the 2021 Second-Wave Covid-19 Pandemic
Aims: Women face many sources of stress throughout their lives, and some periods are particularly sensitive; pregnancy is one of them. The COVID-19 pandemic is a likely source of additional stress for pregnant women. Moreover, there is evidence that pregnant women have experienced high levels of anxiety and depression symptoms during the pandemic. Our study aimed to evaluate the association of pregnancy-specific stress, pandemic-related stress, a…
Depression, psychosocial correlates, and psychosocial resources in individuals with mast cell activation syndrome
Individuals with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), a rare chronic disease, experience unpredictable physical symptoms and diagnostic challenges resulting in poor emotional states. The prevalence and correlates of depressive symptoms were examined among 125 participants who completed the CES-D and relevant instruments. The majority reported a clinically-significant level of depression which was especially common among younger participants and …
Pandemic Stress and Its Correlates among Pregnant Women during the Second Wave of Covid-19 in Poland
Background: The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has created numerous stressful conditions, especially for vulnerable populations such as pregnant women. Pandemic-related pregnancy stress consists of two dimensions: stress associated with feeling unprepared for birth due to the pandemic (Preparedness Stress), and stress related to fears of perinatal COVID-19 infection (Perinatal Infection Stress). The purpose of our study was to elucidate the associatio…
Sun Exposure, Tanning Behaviors, and Sunburn
Patient-provider communication, maternal anxiety, and self-care in pregnancy
Psychosocial impact of mast cell disorders
Mast cell disorders are rare, chronic diseases involving unpredictable physical symptoms ranging in severity, duration, and frequency. Almost two-thirds of participants with these disorders ( n = 180) experienced clinically meaningful depressive symptoms. Depressed mood was associated with somatic symptomatology, poorer quality of life, lower resilience, and indirectly with ways of coping. Newly developed measures for this population performed ps…
Explaining racial disparities in adverse birth outcomes
Pregnancy-specific stress, prenatal health behaviors, and birth outcomes.
OBJECTIVE: Stress in pregnancy predicts earlier birth and lower birth weight. The authors investigated whether pregnancy-specific stress contributes uniquely to birth outcomes compared with general stress, and whether prenatal health behaviors explain this association. DESIGN: Three structured prenatal interviews (N = 279) assessing state anxiety, perceived stress, life events, pregnancy-specific stress, and health behaviors. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE…
Psychosocial sequelae of cesarean delivery
Explaining Disproportionately High Rates of Adverse Birth Outcomes Among African Americans
Compared with European Americans, African American infants experience disproportionately high rates of low birth weight and preterm delivery and are more than twice as likely to die during their 1st year of life. The authors examine 5 explanations for these differences in rates of adverse birth outcomes: (a) ethnic differences in health behaviors and socioeconomic status; (b) higher levels of stress in African American women; (c) greater suscepti…
Private gain, social strain
Outperforming others can be satisfying, in part because it allows us to make self‐enhancing social comparisons against those we have surpassed. However, competitive success can clash with relational goals, leading outperformers to experience discomfort when they believe that their superior status poses a threat to the outperformed person (Exline & Lobel, 1999 ). Two studies revealed that relationship factors play a critical role in responses to s…
When God Disappoints
In light of growing empirical interest in the links between forgiveness, religious belief, and well-being, a study was designed to examine the emotional impact of a specific problem with forgiveness: difficulty forgiving God. Difficulty forgiving God was found to predict anxious and depressed mood within a college student sample ( N 5 200), and its contribution was independent of difficulties forgiving the self and others. Two psychological facto…
The perils of outperformance
Outperforming others, although privately satisfying, can be a source of interpersonal strain. This article presents the framework of a major form of outperformance-related distress, which we label sensitivity about being the target of a threatening upward comparison (STTUC). To become STTUC, an individual must believe that another person is making an upward comparison against the self and feels threatened by the contrast in status. The outperform…
Effects of Psychosocial Resources on Avoidant Coping and Distress in High-Risk Pregnancy
Social support in pregnancy
Social comparison activity under threat
Social comparison processes include the desire to affiliate with others, the desire for information about others, and explicit self-evaluation against others. Previously these types of comparison activity and their corresponding measures have been treated as interchangeable. We present evidence that in certain groups under threat, these comparison activities diverge, with explicit self-evaluation made against a less fortunate target (downward eva…
