  • Why Do We Agree to Disagree? Agreement and Reasons for Disagreement in Judgements of Intentional Self-Harm from Coroners and a Suicide Register in Queensland, Australia, from 2001 to 2015

    Open AccessStuart Leske, Bridget Weir et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2023

    Suicides are likely to be underreported. In Australia, the National Coronial Information System (NCIS) provides information about suicide deaths reported to coroners. The NCIS represents the findings on the intent of the deceased as determined by coroners. We used the Queensland Suicide Register (QSR) to assess the direction, magnitude, and predictors of any differences in the reporting of suicide in Queensland. Therefore, we conducted a consecut…

  • Patterns of Suicide in the Context of Covid-19

    Open AccessAngela Clapperton, Matthew J Spittal et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2021

    Aims: We aimed to determine whether there has been a change in the number of suicides occurring in three Australian states overall, and in age and sex subgroups, since the COVID-19 pandemic began, and to see if certain risk factors for suicide have become more prominent as likely underlying contributing factors for suicide. Method: Using real-time data from three state-based suicide registers, we ran multiple unadjusted and adjusted interrupted t…

  • Global systematic review of the effects of suicide prevention interventions in Indigenous peoples

    Stuart Leske, Elise Paul et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2020

Methods We searched CINAHL, Embase, PubMed, PsycINFO, ProQuest Dissertations & Theses and Web of Science from database inception to April 2020. Eligible were English language, empirical and peer-reviewed studies presen…

  • Predictors of dieting and non-dieting approaches among adults living in Australia

    Open AccessStuart Leske, Esben Strodl et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2017

    The findings from this study provide support for the application of TPB and identity theory constructs in the context of both dieting and non-dieting behaviour. Self-efficacy and self-identity appear more relevant to non-dieting behaviour than dieting behaviour, while subjective norms was more influential in predicting dieting. Practitioners wishing to encourage either approach in their clients should attempt to modify the constructs that influen…

  • Psychological distress may affect nutrition indicators in Australian adults

    Open AccessStuart Leske, Esben Strodl et al.ARTICLEAppetite2015Referencias: 57

METHOD: We analysed data from the 2009 Self-Reported Health Status Survey Report collected in the state of Queensland, Australia. Adults (N = 6881) reported several demographic and health status variables. M…

  • A Qualitative Exploration of Sun Safety Beliefs Among Australian Adults

    Open AccessStuart Leske, Ross Mcd Young et al.ARTICLEAustralian Psychologist2014Referencias: 5

    Informed broadly by the theory of planned behaviour, this study used qualitative methodology to understand Australian adults' sun‐protective decisions. Forty‐two adults participated in focus groups where they discussed behavioural (advantages and disadvantages), normative (important referents), and control (barriers and facilitators) beliefs, as well as potential social influences and images of tanned and non‐tanned people. Responses were analyse…

  • A qualitative study of the determinants of dieting and non-dieting approaches in overweight/obese Australian adults

    Open AccessStuart Leske, Esben Strodl et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2012

    The model of determinants elicited from this study assists in understanding why dieting and non-dieting approaches are adopted, from the perspectives and experiences of overweight/obese adults. Understanding this decision-making process can assist clinicians and public health researchers to design and tailor dieting and non-dieting interventions to population subgroups that have preferences and characteristics suitable for each approach
