Factors that facilitate patient activation in the self-management of diabetes and depression among participants enrolled in an integrated chronic care model in India
Resilience Among Unemployed and Underemployed Emerging Adults
Unemployed and underemployed emerging adults (EAs) are at increased risk for depression. However, limited research has examined resilience and coping in this population. This study tested the resilience process by examining whether coping processes mediate the relationship between perceived stress and depression among unemployed and underemployed EAs. Data from 193 unemployed and underemployed EAs (ages 18–25) were collected through an online que…
Understanding the pros and cons of organ donation decision-making
Increasing public commitment to organ donation is critical to improving donor kidney availability for end-stage renal disease patients desiring transplant. This study surveyed ( N = 1339) African Americans, measuring perceived pros relative to cons of organ donation, to evaluate an existing Transtheoretical Model decisional balance scale and associations between decisional balance and expressing donation intentions. Findings supported the existin…
Understanding African American’s Religious Beliefs and Organ Donation Intentions
Social Support, Nutrition Intake, and Physical Activity in Cancer Survivors
These findings can inform tertiary cancer prevention interventions
Perspectives of Adults With Epilepsy and Their Support Persons on Self-Management Support
Social support is an important mechanism for improving self-management, although little is known about its role in epilepsy self-management. We examined the type of support provided to people with epilepsy and its influence on self-management. We conducted in-depth interviews with 22 people with epilepsy and 16 support persons, representing 14 pairs and 10 unpaired individuals. We analyzed the data using principles of grounded theory. Supporters,…
An Exploration of Perceptions of Possible Depression Prevention Services for Caregivers of Elderly or Chronically Ill Adults in Rural Georgia
When Older African American Women Are Affected by Violence in the Home
A growing body of work has begun to recognize that the problem of older women affected by family violence (FV) deserves special consideration. Because risk and protective factors for FV can vary by social and cultural context, it is imperative that more focused attention be paid to vulnerable populations such as older African American women. This article reports on the results of a qualitative inquiry into individual, dyadic, and community-level …
Development and Psychometric Testing of the Prenatal Breast-feeding Self-efficacy Scale
Intent to Breast-Feed
Results support the theories. Breast-feeding promotions targeting low-income women should emphasize enhancing women's personal breast-feeding attitudes, and, among primiparous women, promoting positive breast-feeding attitudes among their significant others
Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation and Intention to Breast-feed
This study helps elucidate motivational factors involved in infant-feeding decisions
Psychological and Behavioral Factors Predicting Attendance at a Community-based HIV Prevention Intervention
To date, virtualiy no research has addressed individuals' characteristics which influence their participation in prevention interventions targeting the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Identification of these characteristics is important, for no intervention is effective if not attended. This study explored stage of condom adoption and selected other psychological and behavioral factors, to determine which of these predicted attendance at a cl…
Unintended pregnancy and sex education in Chile
This study analysed factors associated with unintended pregnancy among adolescent and young adult women in Santiago, Chile. Three variations of a behavioural model were developed. Logistic regression showed that the effect of sex education on unintended pregnancy works through the use of contraception. Other significant effects were found for variables reflecting socioeconomic status and a woman's acceptance of her sexuality. The results also sug…
