Long‐term effects of basic coach education on ice hockey coaches' beliefs and use of need‐supportive behaviors
The long‐term impact of education on sport coaches' interpersonal behaviors remains unclear. In this longitudinal study ( N = 52) we examined one‐year changes in ice hockey coaches' use of need‐supportive behaviors following a two‐day basic coach education both shortly after the intervention and one year later. Coaches reported effectiveness, easy‐to‐implement, and normative beliefs about need support and their use of autonomy, competence, and re…
Barriers and enablers of a formal coach development program
Background Formal coach development programs (CDPs) are central to national sports accreditation systems, yet little is known about the implementation fidelity of introductory, policy-based coaching courses. Although such programs follow standardized curricula, variations in delivery and reception are common, shaped by educators’ interpretations, differing levels of implementation preparedness, logistical constraints, and the diverse backgrounds …
The Undercurrent of Friction”
This article examines the origins, contours, and consequences of a bitter bureaucratic rivalry within the US Department of Agriculture on the eve of New Deal soil conservation programs. The conflict, which pitted agricultural engineers against soil scientists and agronomists, served as a crucible for federal soil conservation. It emerged as these experts built the case that soil erosion could and should be controlled through state action. From th…

Sex Differences in Children with Uncomplicated Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and Sleep Problems
Boys with ADHD and sleep problems may need support with sleep-related anxiety and night-time wakings, while girls may require support with overall functioning. Additionally, children who express feelings of worry, sadness, or unhappiness alongside their ADHD symptoms should have attention given to their sleep
Reconfiguration of uncertainty
The promise behind many advanced digital technologies in healthcare is to provide novel and accurate information, aiding medical experts to navigate and, ultimately, decrease uncertainty in their clinical work. However, sociological studies have started to show that these technologies are not producing straightforward objective knowledge, but instead often become associated with new uncertainties arising in unanticipated places and situations. Th…
Social Capital in Relation to Mental Health—The Voices of Adolescents in Sweden
The social environment that adolescents interact in has undoubtedly changed over the past decades. The latent constructs of social capital that have been described in theory may be universal, but it is necessary to reveal sociocultural specific pathways and manifestation in order to validly operationalize social capital for adolescents. There is a call for qualitative data to enhance our understanding of social capital for adolescents today and t…

Parents’ Experiences of Direct and Indirect Implications of Sleep Quality on the Health of Children with ADHD
Sleep problems represent a significant challenge for children with ADHD. However, lack of knowledge about how sleep affects children with ADHD in terms of their health and everyday life prevents the development and implementation of interventions to promote sleep. The aim of this study was to explore parents' experiences of direct and indirect implications of sleep quality on the health of children with ADHD. The study used an abductive qualitati…

Data collection was performed through 14 semi-structured interviews. The qualitative content analysis resulted in six sub-categories, three …
Mental Health Problems among Young People—A Scoping Review of Help-Seeking
Young people's mental health is a public health priority, particularly as mental health problems in this group seem to be increasing. Even in countries with supposedly good access to healthcare, few young people seek support for mental health problems. The aim of this study was twofold, firstly to map the published literature on young people's experiences of seeking help for mental health problems and secondly to validate whether the Lost in Spac…
Exploring Barriers to Participation in Pediatric Rehabilitation
In order to develop suitable support for participation in pediatric rehabilitation, it is important to understand what barriers need to be bridged from the perspectives of both children and adults. The aim of this study was to explore barriers to participation in pediatric rehabilitation services, according to children and young people with disabilities, parents to children with disabilities, and professionals. Data was collected in individual in…
Parents’ Perceptions of the Value of Children’s Participation in Pediatric Rehabilitation Services
Ensuring that children have opportunities to be involved in decision-making regarding their own care is associated with quality improvement in pediatric rehabilitation.

Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 17 parents of children with disabilities who visited pediatric rehabilitation services. A phenomen…
Parents’ Experiences of Weighted Blankets’ Impact on Children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Sleep Problems—A Qualitative Study
Sleep disturbances are common among children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). While pharmacological treatment has increased dramatically, parents often prefer non-pharmacological interventions. Research on experiences of weighted blankets and their effect in sleep improvement is scarce. The aim of this study was to explore parents' experiences of weighted blankets for children with ADHD and sleep problems, and the impact on t…
Socioeconomic inequalities in health among Swedish adolescents - adding the subjective perspective
The level of socioeconomic inequalities in adolescent health varied depending on which measure that was used to define SES. When focusing on adolescents, the subjective appraisals of SES is important to consider because they seem to provide a stronger tool for identifying inequalities in health for this group. This finding is important for policy makers to consider given the persistence of health inequalities in Sweden and other high-income count…
The Bulldozer in the Watershed
Self-rated mental health and socio-economic background
A complex pattern of associations between SES and self-rated mental health, divergent between age and gender groups, was shown. The total FAS score was only associated with boys' self-rated mental health in both age groups, whereas parents' migratory status influenced only the girls' self-rated mental health. Because of the different association for girls' and boys' self-rated mental health and SES, other factors than SES should also be considere…
