Pediatric Sleep Disturbances and Symptoms of Depression in Older Adults
We investigated the association between retrospectively reported sleep disturbances during childhood and adolescence and current symptoms of depression and anxiety in older adults. Participants included 116 older adults ( M age = 68 years [ SD = 6.4 years]) who completed a battery of sleep and psychological assessments. We tested two multivariate regression models using age, sex, race, physical illness burden, insomnia status, and pediatric sleep…
Caloric expenditure assessment among older adults
Criterion validity of a novel accelerometry device that measures caloric expenditure (Fitbit) was evaluated against a self-report estimation of caloric expenditure (Community Healthy Activities Model Program for Seniors) in older adults. Community Health Activities Model Program for Seniors and Fitbit estimates of total caloric expenditure per day were significantly correlated ( r = .61, p < .05). Bland-Altman plots indicated that 70 percent of p…

Social Buffering in Rats
Stress may result when the present environment is interpreted as threatening, and stress is known to increase the prolactin-secretory response.In the present study, rats (N = 83) were exposed to a conditioned-fear paradigm (environment paired with footshock), and on testing day, rats were exposed to the experimental chamber without shock while alone (Alone n = 16), with an object (Object n = 17), with a euthanized conspecific (Euthanized n = 16),…
