Child opinions related to a core outcome set for school-based healthy lifestyle behavior interventions
Introduction: Including children's perspectives developing health programs is a priority. This study gathered children's perspectives on outcomes in a Core Outcomes Set (COS), which they believe are important to measure in school-based healthy lifestyle behavioral interventions. Methods: Children aged 8-12 years from six countries across three continents participated in standardized interactive focus groups. An animation video was used to explain…
Examining how brief mindfulness training influences communication within the brain of musicians with music performance anxiety
Many musicians live with music performance anxiety (MPA), which may affect their psychological and physiological functioning. Mindfulness, being aware in the present moment without judgment, has been found to help ease anxiety. Mindfulness may also help alleviate the negative effects of MPA, but what is the neurophysiological basis for this effect? Core components of mindfulness, including emotional processing and acceptance, are related to speci…
Examining how sociocultural appearance pressures relate to positive and negative facets of body image and eating behaviors in adolescents
The present study explored how patterns of sociocultural appearance pressures were linked to positive and negative facets of body image and eating behaviors in an adolescent sample (N = 438). Latent profile analyses indicated three distinct subgroups of perceived sociocultural appearance-related pressures: a Generalized-Pressure profile (28.8%) (moderate pressure from mother, father, and peers, and relatively high pressure from the media), a High…
Environmental Scan of Child and Youth Outdoor Play-Based Projects, Programs, Activities and Services Available in Canada During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Restrictions to childcare, schools, and after-school programs during COVID-19 have meant that many programs and organizations have adapted to take place outdoors. To better understand the nature and extent of these adaptations, we conducted a Canada-wide environmental scan of outdoor play-based child and youth projects, programs, activities, and services available during the height of the pandemic (2020-2021) using a "formal searching" method. We…
Dissociated Effects of Age and Recent Troubling Experiences on Nightmares, Threats and Negative Emotions in Dreams
Several studies have highlighted associations between adverse life events and the dysphoric character of dream experiences. This degree of continuity between waking-life and dream content seems partly attributed to the emotional and personal attachment linked to the incorporated waking experiences. Numerous changes in the processing of emotion-related stimuli are also reported across different human developmental stages. Therefore, we were intere…
The Effects of Self-Compassion and Self-Esteem Writing Interventions on Women’s Valuation of Weight Management Goals, Body Appreciation, and Eating Behaviors
In this study, we examined the effects of body-focused daily self-compassion and self-esteem expressive writing activities on women’s valuation of weight management goals, body appreciation, bulimic symptoms, and healthy and unhealthy eating behaviors. One-hundred twenty-six women, recruited from the community and a university participant pool ( Mage = 29.3, SD = 13.6), were randomly allocated to one of the three writing conditions: body-focused …
Development of a consensus statement on the role of the family in the physical activity, sedentary, and sleep behaviours of children and youth
Examining fat talk and self-compassion as distinct motivational processes in women's eating regulation
This study examined whether pursuing intrinsic versus extrinsic goals was associated with distinct motivational processes in eating regulation and with healthy versus unhealthy eating. Path analysis demonstrated that appearance goals were associated with fat talk, whereas health goals were associated with self-compassion. Fat talk was positively associated with non-self-determined motivation and unhealthy eating, whereas self-compassion was posit…
