(De)construction on the road ahead: Item response theory and psychometric analysis of self-report measures of active and passive social media use
Active social media (SM) use involves engaging with other users (e.g., posting content, commenting), while passive social media use does not involve engaging with other users (e.g., scrolling). These constructs are fraught with measurement issues. This manuscript provides item response theory and updated psychometric analyses of two commonly used self-report measures developed nearly a decade ago: the Passive and Active Use Measure and the Multid…
Conceptions of Happiness Matter: Relationships between Fear and Fragility of Happiness and Mental and Physical Wellbeing
Virtual Canine Comfort: A Randomized Controlled Trial of the Effects of a Canine-Assisted Intervention Supporting Undergraduate Wellbeing
Being a university student is known to be a stressful experience, and researchers across studies have reported elevated stress and compromised mental health for university students when compared with findings from the general population. The unexpected disruption to their studies arising from COVID-19 and its corresponding social isolation added to the stress experienced by students. This study assessed the effects of a virtual canine-assisted in…
The Importance of Client-Canine Contact in Canine-Assisted Interventions: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Researchers have claimed that canine-assisted interventions (CAIs) contribute significantly to bolstering participants' wellbeing, yet the mechanisms within interactions have received little empirical attention. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of client–canine contact on wellbeing outcomes in a sample of 284 undergraduate college students (77% female; 21% male, 2% non-binary). Participants self-selected to participate and were rand…
