Psychosocial distress in women diagnosed with gynecological cancer
Many women with gynecological cancer report psychosocial distress, and clarification of the risks, vulnerabilities, and protective factors is required. The aim of this study was to investigate the lived experience of gynecological cancer patients and to understand the factors that underlie psychosocial distress. Semi-structured interviews with seven women diagnosed with gynecological cancer revealed the role of social support, or its absence, sel…
Predicting Human Papilloma Virus Vaccination and Pap Smear Screening Intentions Among Young Singaporean Women Using the Theory of Planned Behavior
We used the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to analyze the role of attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control as predictors of intentions to obtain Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccinations or a Papanicolaou (Pap) smear in a sample of young Singaporean women. A further aim was to evaluate knowledge of cervical cancer and preventive measures as a possible additional predictor of intentions. A purpose-designed TPB and knowledge qu…
The Relationship of Knowledge, Health Value and Health Self-efficacy with Men's Intentions to Receive the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Vaccine
The aim of the present study was to determine whether it was possible to predict Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination intentions an Australian male sample. One hundred and twenty one males aged 18 to 26 ( M = 22.3, SD = 2.06), completed an online survey assessing HPV-related knowledge, health beliefs and health self-efficacy. HPV knowledge and health self-efficacy were significant independent predictors of vaccine acceptance. A moderating effec…

The role of maladaptive cognitive content among individuals with chronic physical illness has been acknowledged in cognitive models. Rumination has been documented as a key predictor of depression, and to a lesser extent of anxiety, in non-clinical samples. This paper provides a preliminary discussion of the potential role of rumination as a causal and maintaining factor for emotional distress in the setting of chronic physical illness. Although …
Relationship between hardiness and perceived stress in two generations of Latin American migrants
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between hardiness and assimilation to the Australian culture, and the relationship between hardiness and levels of perceived stress among first- and second-generation Latin American migrants living in Melbourne, Australia. The participants consisted of 41 men and 47 women, with a mean age of 34.75 years (SD = 9.75 years). Second generation migrants reported higher levels of perceived stres…
