Tailoring Colorectal Cancer Screening
A dynamic multilevel behavioural framework for emergency preparedness
Societal shocks such as extreme weather events -- pandemics, large-scale conflict, or disasters test the resilience of individuals, communities, and broader societal systems. In response, governments and organizations worldwide are investing in improving preparedness and strengthening societal resilience. Despite widespread endorsement, a major challenge lies in the absence of a shared conceptualization that captures the behaviour of the various …
Quality of life among older informal caregivers in Sweden
Our findings emphasize that a substantial proportion of older caregivers have suboptimal QoL, and that those with poor mental QoL also experience higher levels of loneliness and social isolation. Targeted policies to reduce caregiver burden and enhance their QoL are essential
I Feel Better now than I did at the Beginning”
Background population aging, along with changes in gender and kinship social norms, have led to a growing proportion of older people caring for similarly aged individuals. Most of them are spouses or partners oquef the cared-for person and take on multiple demanding and time-consuming care tasks. According to the “double jeopardy” hypothesis, the health of the older carers is particularly at risk because due to the combined effect of caregiving r…
Preventive behavior against Sars-CoV-2 infection in adults according to whether or not they live with children. A combined analysis of the nationwide Cosmo-SPAIN and ENE-Covid surveys
Introduction The protection of children is a major driver of behavior among those in charge of their care. We evaluated whether compliance with preventive measures against SARS-CoV-2 infection among adults living with children was different from that of those not living with them, in 2020. Methods We used the COSMO-SPAIN ( N = 867) and the nationally representative ENE-COVID ( N = 29,926) surveys to estimate prevalence of compliance (95% confiden…
Covid-19 vaccine hesitancy in Spain and associated factors
Introduction The present study explores the reasons of those who have not been vaccinated in the later stage of the vaccine rollout in Spain and its associated determinants. Methods Cluster and logistic regression analyses were used to assess differences in claimed reasons for vaccine hesitancy in Spain using two samples of unvaccinated people (18–40 years old) gathered by an online cross-sectional survey from social networks ( n = 910) and from …

Trends in Covid-19 Vaccine Acceptance in Spain, September 2020‒May 2021
Objectives. To analyze factors associated with COVID-19 vaccine acceptance in Spain, over time. Methods. We used data from a national study that included 5 online surveys carried out every 2 months from September 2020 to May 2021. Each round recruited a sample of 1000 participants aged 18 years or older. We performed a multivariable logistic regression with vaccination acceptance as the dependent variable. We evaluated time trends through the int…
The Cosmo-Spain Survey
Objective: To describe changes in knowledge, attitudes and preventive practices (KAP), risk perception, and psychological variables of Spanish population toward the COVID-19 pandemic from July to November 2020. Methods: Three samples, each of one composed by 1,000+ persons aged 18 years or older, were interviewed online in three rounds, every 2 months, from July to November 2020. Results: The level of knowledge on COVID-19 was high in the three r…
Small area influences on the individual unhealthy lifestyle behaviors
Multi-ethnic validation of 15-item Geriatric Depression Scale in Chile
Background There has been scant research published regarding the assessment of depression in ethnic groups, and few studies have addressed the validation of scales for standardized assessment of depressive symptoms among indigenous minorities. Objective The aim of this study was to analyze the psychometric properties of the 15-item Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15) for a multi-ethnic sample of older Chilean adults. Methods Cross-sectional study…
Prevalence of and factors associated with homebound status among adults in urban and rural Spanish populations
The study shows that homebound status is a common problem in our setting, and that being disabled is its main determinant. Socio-demographic characteristics, barriers and chronic diseases can also be assumed to be playing a role in the onset of this condition, indicating the need for further research, including longitudinal studies on its incidence and associated factors
