  • Physical activity promotion in Quebec primary schools

    Open AccessErin K O’loughlin, Maryam Marashi et al.ARTICLEHealth Promotion International2026

    Schools are pivotal in promoting physical activity (PA) among children through supportive environments and targeted programming. Despite this, in 2024, only 39% of Canadian children met PA guidelines, with inequity linked to socioeconomic status. This study describes the availability of PA activities and facilities in Quebec primary schools according to school deprivation levels and the extent to which school-based PA health promotion interventio…

  • Availability and Implementation Characteristics of Nutrition Health Promotion Interventions in Quebec Elementary Schools

    Open AccessErin K O’loughlin, Mounia Naja et al.ARTICLEJournal of School Health2025

    BACKGROUND: Availability and quality of nutrition-related health-promoting interventions (N-HPIs) vary across primary schools. We examined whether school contextual factors (e.g., socioeconomic deprivation) were associated with N-HPI availability in Quebec, Canada, and whether available N-HPIs incorporated evidence-based implementation characteristics. METHODS: In a cross-sectional study (2016-2019), informants from 171 primary schools reported o…

  • Perfectionism and disordered eating in exercise and nutrition professionals

    Open AccessMaryam Marashi, Danika A Quesnel et al.ARTICLEEating Behaviors2025References: 46

    Disordered eating (DE) is more prevalent among exercise and nutrition professionals (ENPs) which may be partially due to heightened levels of perfectionism. Self-actualizing strategies such as self-compassion may offer protection against DE but are not well-understood among health and wellness professionals. This cross-sectional study investigated the associations between multidimensional perfectionism (self-oriented, socially prescribed, and oth…

  • Predictors of Food and Physical Activity Tracking Among Young Adults

    Open AccessErin K O’loughlin, Maryam Marashi et al.ARTICLEHealth Education & Behavior2023

    BACKGROUND: Monitoring food intake and physical activity (PA) using tracking applications may support behavior change. However, few longitudinal studies identify the characteristics of young adults who track their behavior, findings that could be useful in designing tracking-related interventions. Our objective was to identify predictors of past-year food and PA tracking among young adults. METHODS: Data were available for 676 young adults partic…

  • Health‐Promoting School Culture

    Open AccessJodi Kalubi, Teodora Riglea et al.ARTICLEJournal of School Health2023

    BACKGROUND: The context in which school-based health-promoting interventions are implemented is key for the delivery and success of these interventions. However, little is known about whether school culture differs by school deprivation. METHODS: Using data from PromeSS, a cross-sectional study of 161 elementary schools in Québec, Canada, we drew from the Health Promoting Schools theoretical framework to develop four measures of health-promoting …

  • Associations among physical activity tracking, physical activity motivation and level of physical activity in young adults

    Open AccessErin K O’loughlin, Catherine M Sabiston et al.ARTICLEJournal of Health Psychology2022Cited by: 3References: 53

    Whether physical activity (PA) tracking devices are associated with PA motivation in young adults is largely unknown. We compared total PA minutes per week, total minutes walking/week, meeting moderate-to vigorous PA guidelines, and past-year activity tracking across motivation cluster profiles among 799 young adults. Participants with "self-determined" profiles reported the highest total PA minutes/week followed by participants with "low intrins…

  • Common stressful life events and difficulties are associated with mental health symptoms and substance use in young adolescents

    Open AccessNancy CP Low, Nancy Chooi Ping Low et al.ARTICLEBMC Psychiatry2012

    BACKGROUND: Stressful life events are associated with mood disorders in adults in clinical settings. Less described in the literature is the association between common life stressors and a wide range of psychopathology in young adolescents. This study uses a large non-clinical sample of young adolescents to describe the associations among worry or stress about common life events/difficulties, mental health and substance use. METHODS: Data on life…
