Too much of a good thing? Exploring experiences of obsession with self-monitoring technology
Self-monitoring technology (SMT) – smartphone apps and wearable devices used to monitor bodily functions and activities – are becoming increasingly ubiquitous. SMTs are promoted for encouraging health-supporting fitness and sleep behaviours. However, concerns have also emerged about potential harms, including thorough experiences of obsession. To conceptualise obsession and its nuances, a richer understanding of people’s experiences is needed. Th…
Examining the associations between trauma intrusions, emotion regulation, and affect among European Australian and Chinese Australian trauma survivors using ecological momentary assessment
Momentary intrusions were associated with diverse emotion regulation strategy use and moderated associations between emotion regulation strategy use and affect. Importantly, cultural group moderated some of these associations, suggesting the use of emotion regulation strategies is not universal. The findings highlight the importance of considering cultural context in trauma treatment and a need for further research in this area. (PsycInfo Databas…

Access to Abortion in New Zealand After Law Reform and Covid ‐19; A National Cohort Study
Following ALR in Aotearoa New Zealand, women have a 21% better chance of having an abortion procedure < 10.0 weeks' gestation compared to before ALR, after adjusting for demographic variables. Although access improved for Māori women, inequity by ethnicity remains
What we learned from the Nokomisag/Grandmothers
The Four R principles (4Rs) of respect, responsibility, relevance, and reciprocity were developed in the field of education by Kirkness and Barnhardt and have guided respectful approaches in research. Our purpose was to adapt the 4Rs for storytelling methods in Indigenous health research and identify associated exemplary research practices. Indigenous team members drew on their traditional Cree and Anishinaabemowin languages to formulate revised …
Interpretive Description and Reflexive Thematic Analysis
Researchers are increasingly using qualitative health methodologies to inform patient-centered healthcare practice. However, in doing so, they are often dismissing the inherent subjectivity of qualitative research to conform to quantitative standards of objectivity. Acknowledging that all aspects of research inquiry are influenced by situated researchers, I explore the co-use of interpretive description (ID), an applied qualitative health methodo…
‘Now I Have Dreams in Place of the Nightmares’
Trauma exposure places refugees at serious risk of developing mental health difficulties. However, research also recognizes that refugees can respond to trauma with psychological development and growth, commonly referred to as post-traumatic growth (PTG). An updated systematic review was conducted to investigate PTG across different refugee populations, including the processes that mediate this phenomenon, and the use of therapy in promoting PTG.…
A Pilot and Feasibility Study on a Mindfulness-Based Intervention Adapted for LGBTQ+ Adolescents
(1) Background: Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and other gender and sexual minority-identified (LGBTQ+) adolescents face mental and physical health disparities compared to their heterosexual and cisgender counterparts. Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) may be a potential method to intervene upon health disparities in this population. This pilot study explores the initial acceptability and feasibility, along with the descriptive h…

Virtual Service Delivery in Mental Health and Substance Use Care
Mental health and substance use disorders affect the lives of many people worldwide. Prevention and treatment of these conditions is important for optimal health and wellbeing, yet service access barriers are common. Virtual models of care may help to reduce barriers to receiving care. However, to facilitate uptake and use of virtual services, they need to appeal to patients and clinicians. This systematic review aimed to synthesise preference el…
Covid-19 lockdowns and working women's mental health
The COVID-19 pandemic had detrimental and unequal repercussions on mental health. To date there is little evidence exploring how motherhood and workplace size moderates this relationship for working women. This study aimed to estimate changes in working women's mental health at the start of each UK lockdown and estimate the effect of motherhood and workplace size on mental health. We used Understanding Society data from women in paid employment, …
Just Trying to Make it Through
This study used critical interpretive phenomenological analysis to explore the lived experiences and phenomena of motherhood of five young Black women in Pennsylvania as they transition into motherhood. The core themes that emerged were systemic inequities, kinship, survival, and apprehension around the transition to motherhood. Additional analysis suggested that racism, structural oppression, childhood trauma, healthcare coercion, perinatal ment…

A Multicenter Study of Student Engagement and Satisfaction in Online Programs
Background: Students who are more satisfied and engaged in online courses have better learning experiences and outcomes. Method: Survey data were collected during a 4-month period in 2019. The research team created a survey to collect demographic information and assess student satisfaction. Student engagement was measured using the 19-item Online Student Engagement Scale. Results: Overall student engagement and satisfaction scores in online progr…

Abduction versus conceiving in modal epistemology
Relativized metaphysical modality
A familiar and useful representation of modality invokes a space of possible worlds, and quantification over it: necessity and possibility are represented, respectively, with universal and existential quantification—so that necessity is truth at all possible worlds; possibility, truth at some. While modality comes in many varieties, a familiar thought gives a singular position to metaphysical modality, as the broadest objective variety, pertainin…
Abductive two-dimensionalism
No Work for a Theory of Grounding
It has recently been suggested that a distinctive metaphysical relation— ‘Grounding’—is ultimately at issue in contexts in which some goings-on are said to hold ‘in virtue of’’, be (constitutively) ‘metaphysically dependent on’, or be ‘nothing over and above’ some others. Grounding is supposed to do good work (better than merely modal notions, in particular) in illuminating metaphysical dependence. I argue that Grounding is also unsuited to do th…

Non-reductive Physicalism and Degrees of Freedom
Some claim that Non-reductive Physicalism (NRP) is an unstable position, on grounds that NRP either collapses into reductive physicalism (contra Non-reduction), or expands into emergentism of a robust or ‘strong’ variety (contra Physicalism). I argue that this claim is unfounded, by attention to the notion of a degree of freedom—roughly, an independent parameter needed to characterize an entity as being in a state functionally relevant to its law…
Newtonian Forces
Newtonian forces are pushes and pulls, possessing magnitude and direction, that are exerted (in the first instance) by objects, and which cause (in particular) motions. I defend Newtonian forces against the four best reasons for denying or doubting their existence. A running theme in my defense of forces will be the suggestion that Newtonian Mechanics is a special science, and as such has certain prima facie ontological rights and privileges, tha…

Ego Boundaries, Shamanic-Like Techniques, and Subjective Experience
The subjective effects and therapeutic potential of the shamanic practice of journeying is well known. However, previous research has neglected to provide a comprehensive assessment of the subjective effects of shamanic-like journeying techniques on non-shamans. Shamanic-like techniques are those that demonstrate some similarity to shamanic practices and yet deviate from what may genuinely be considered shamanism. Furthermore, the personality tra…

Prediction of body density from skinfold thickness in elderly subjects
In 33 healthy elderly subjects, body density was measured using hydrodensitometry and predicted from the sum of four skinfold thicknesses. In the men, mean measured density was 1.045 kg/l and mean predicted density 1.041 kg/l, with bias and limits of agreement 0.004 (+/- 0.016) kg/l and 95% confidence interval (CI) for the difference 0.001-0.008 kg/l. In the women, mean measured density was 1.012 kg/l and mean predicted density 1.020 kg/l, and 95…

Wireless Networking in an Underserved Neighborhood
In the spring of 2006, a Houston medical researcher solicited our help in understanding how residents living in Pecan Park, an East Houston neighborhood, seek health care, perceive their neighborhood, and use technology. An ethnographic perspective was needed for the development of an hand-held electronic heart monitoring device (similar to a Sony PSP) that would enable patients to better manage their health1. We would identify the people, places…
