Factors Influencing Engagement Across the Motivational PrEP Cascade Among Latino SMM
Using a structural-ecological model to facilitate adoption of preexposure prophylaxis among Latinx sexual minority men
Research has consistently shown that individual, interpersonal, community and structural factors influence the degree to which individuals' access and utilize health care services, and these factors may play a role in explaining racial and ethnic differences in health care outcomes. Differences in HIV prevalence and treatment between Latinx adults and white adults in the U.S. must be considered in the context of these factors. However, much of th…
Perspectives on Social Support and Stigma in PrEP-related Care among Gay and Bisexual Men
Despite its effectiveness at preventing HIV, uptake of PrEP has been slow. PrEP-related stigma is a potential barrier to uptake. Social support has been found to buffer against some PrEP stigma. Unfortunately, little research has investigated the relationship between social support and PrEP-related care. In 2018, we conducted 20 semistructured interviews with MSM who use PrEP (ages 22-70). Interview questions explored social support and PrEP-rela…
The role of internalized homonegativity in the faith and psychological health of lesbians
Among lesbians, faith-based beliefs and behaviors may be associated with negative psychological health due to the interplay between religious and sexual identities. The present study examined health outcomes, faith-based beliefs (views of God as loving and controlling), faith-based behaviors (personal spiritual practices, religious activities), and internalized homonegativity in a sample of 225 self-identified lesbians. We hypothesized that inter…
Values Narratives for Personal Growth
Evidence that even very brief writing exercises can change the way people see themselves and promote more positive mental and physical health has led to increased interest in their use in school settings and elsewhere. To date, however, research designs rely heavily on samples of college students and experimental studies of writing tasks carried out in the lab. There has been less investigation of the potential impact of more naturally occurring …

The Generative Society
The Generative Society
"The Generative Society: Caring for Future Generations examines this critical stage of development that occurs during the "long middle" of adulthood, as it exists on societal and cultural levels. This volume's diverse group of eminent scholars explores the complex relationships between generativity and various societies' political, economic, religious, educational, and cultural arenas. Integrating empirical research, scientific and cultural theor…
Personal Ideology
Individual religious beliefs are conceptualized as a component of personal ideology,which is one’s value‐laden philosophy of how life should be lived and of what forces impact human living. Extending Silvan Tomkins’ (1911–1991) writings concerning ideology polarity and his script theory of personality, I suggest that personal ideology theory may be employed to elucidate the content, structure, and development of religious beliefs. This theory exa…
Stories of commitment
In this study, the authors analyzed the internalized life stories of 40 highly generative and 30 less generative adults with similar demographic profiles to discern the extent to which the 2 groups constructed different identities. The highly generative adults were more likely to reconstruct the past and anticipate the future as variations on a prototypical commitment story in which the protagonist (a) enjoys an early family blessing or advantage…
Personal ideology polarity
Personal ideology is an individual's philosophy of how life should be and of what forces influence human living. In this study S.S. Tomkins's (1963b, 1965, 1978, 1987) polarity theory of ideology was used to examine the manifestation of personal ideology in 4 value-laden domains of personality. Tomkins's theoretical postulates concerning the emotional foundation of personal ideology also were tested. Analyses revealed that the 2 defining dimensio…
Generativity among young, midlife, and older adults.
A theory of generativity and its assessment through self-report, behavioral acts, and narrative themes in autobiography
Generativity may be conceived in terms of 7 interrelated features : cultural demand, inner desire, generative concern, belief in the species, commitment, generative action, and personal narration. Two studies describe the development and use of 3 assessment strategies designed to tap into the generativity features of concern, action, and narration. A self-report scale of generative concern-the Loyola Generativity Scale (LGS)-exhibited good intern…
