Caregiving Appraisals and Emotional Valence: Moderating Effects of Activity Participation
The present study examines the extent to which a two-factor model of affect explains how caregiving appraisals experienced by caregivers influence their own well-being. We used data from three waves of Nation Study of Caregiving (NSOC) to conduct latent growth curve models with the time-varying predictors to investigate the effect of between-person (BP) and within-person (WP) caregiving appraisals on positive and negative affect. Furthermore, we …

Cognitive impairment and contexts: Examining the intersections of social activity participation and neighborhood perceptions
Objectives In this study, we examined the extent to which older adult social activity participation and perceptions of neighborhoods correspond with risks of cognitive impairment with no dementia (CIND) and dementia. Methods We predicted the risk of both CIND and dementia in a series of Cox proportional hazards analyses among older adults across a 10-year period. Utilizing data from the Health and Retirement Study (HRS, N = 15,020), we examined w…
Feeling unappreciated? The role of perceived appreciation on the psychological well-being of caregivers
Caregiving is a demanding role that can result in significant psychological strain. Many caregivers experience increased stress, depression, and other negative psychological outcomes due to the intensity and duration of their caregiving responsibilities. Guided by social exchange theory (Thibaut & Kelley, 1959) and the stress process model (Pearlin et al., 1990), this study examines perceived appreciation role as a psychological resource that can…

Daily Temperatures and Child Hospital Admissions in Aotearoa New Zealand: Case Time Series Analysis
The influence of global climate change on temperature-related health outcomes among vulnerable populations, particularly young children, is underexplored. Using a case time series design, we analysed 647,000 hospital admissions of children aged under five years old in New Zealand, born between 2000 and 2019. We explored the relationship between daily maximum temperatures and hospital admissions across 2139 statistical areas. We used quasi-Poisson…
Support for Family Caregivers: Implications of Work Strain and Its Intersections With Formal and Informal Help
The findings suggest that informal support, exemplified by the number of additional caregivers, corresponds with reduced emotional distress among employed caregivers and can mitigate the negative impacts of work strain. However, positive associations between formal support and male and female caregiver distress suggest that the context of formal services may offer limited or untimely support. This study is expected to broaden our understanding of…

Complex Role of Touch in Social Relationships for Older Adults’ Cardiovascular Disease Risk
The purpose of this study was to examine the links among relationship quality (RQ) and predictors of cardiovascular risks and consider the role of physical touch as a moderator. The sample includes 2,731 adults who participated in the National Social Life Health and Aging Project (NSHAP). Results indicate that positive RQ and negative RQ are associated with systolic blood pressure (BP) and pulse pressure (PP) depending on the level of physical to…
Transcultural validation of the return-to-work self-efficacy scale in Korean patients with work-related injuries
The Korean RTWSE-17 scale was found to possess good psychometric properties and could address different injury types ranging from fractures to amputations involved in sub-acute and rehabilitation phases in the Korean context. This study's findings provide insights for practitioners and researchers to return to work after rehabilitation in a Korean clinical and workplace setting
Racial differences in future care planning in late life
Objectives: Although many older adults fear frailty and loss of independence in late life, relatively few make plans for their future care. Such planning is particularly limited among racial minorities. Given the benefits of future care planning (FCP), it is important to understand factors that facilitate or hamper FCP in late life. Our study explored racial, demographic, and dispositional influences on thinking about and engagement in FCP among …
