The burden of grief
Coping with loss is an unfortunate reality faced by healthcare professionals, and the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated this challenge for those who worked on the frontlines. Our scoping review aimed to comprehensively map the existing literature pertaining to the experiences of grief among nurses and physicians in the context of the pandemic. Six bibliographic databases were searched in 2022, and a targeted search of gray literature and citation cha…
The relationship between transliminality, hypnotic and imaginative suggestibility, and other personality traits
To our knowledge, no study has directly examined the link between hypnotic response and the personality trait of transliminality (which is underpinned, for example, by magical ideation, mystical experience, fantasy proneness, absorption, hyperaesthesia). In order to further understand the correlates of suggestibility, the aim of the current project was to investigate whether transliminality is associated with hypnotic and imaginative suggestibili…
A Scoping Review of Factors Associated With the Mental Health of Young People Who Have “Aged Out” of the Child Welfare System
Young people who grow up in care and then exit care around the age of 18 (care-leavers) are a particularly vulnerable group, at increased risk for mental health problems even relative to other care-experienced groups. Yet, little is understood about the factors underpinning this association. We used scoping review methods to synthesize the quantitative and qualitative literature on factors that are associated with mental health problems for care-…
Tracking the burden, distribution, and impact of Post-Covid conditions in diverse populations for children, adolescents, and adults (Track PCC)
These data can help identify which groups are most affected by PCC, and what health differences among demographic groups exist, as well as indicate potential barriers to care. These additional levels of granularity can inform public health action and help direct needed clinical care for patients
Understanding palliative care learning
Palliative care is an emotionally evocative domain of care, the complexities of which are not well understood. Palliative care has been described as a cultural shift in healthcare away from disease focused interventions toward a holistic and patient centered approach. Concerns have arisen around a lack of preparation for this approach to care following formal education programs across a variety of health professions. Demographics in many areas of…
Predictors of Adherence to Self‐Care in Rural Patients With Heart Failure
BACKGROUND: The common reality of not following a recommended course of treatment is a major cause of poor health outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF). The purpose of this study was to identify predictors of adherence to HF self-care recommendations in rural HF patients who received an intervention to promote symptom management and self-care. METHODS: Data from 349 rural HF patients (42% female, 90% Caucasian) randomized to the interventi…

The mission of the j-blog
Drawing from normative journalism theory, this textual analysis argues that mainstream journalism weblogs are now occupying a role serving to reify traditional norms even as the j-bloggers shift those standard values. When journalists blog, they engage in postmodern reporting and writing even as they are attempting to reclaim journalism authority online. The j-blog has already begun to evolve traditional notions of the mainstream press. Readers a…
The 1999 international emergency humanitarian evacuation of the Kosovars to Canada
BACKGROUND: In response to the Kosovo crisis, Canada received 5,500 Albanian Kosovar refugees in 1999 as part of the emergency humanitarian evacuation and settlement effort. This study attempts to describe the experiences of service providers at the international, national, and local levels, involved in the organization and delivery of health and settlement services in Canada for the Kosovar refugees. METHODS: A qualitative case study design usin…
Sars Control and Psychological Effects of Quarantine, Toronto, Canada
As a transmissible infectious disease, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) was successfully contained globally by instituting widespread quarantine measures. Although these measures were successful in terminating the outbreak in all areas of the world, the adverse effects of quarantine have not previously been determined in a systematic manner. In this hypothesis-generating study supported by a convenience sample drawn in close temporal prox…

The New Creative Thinking Skills Needed for Total Quality Management to Become Fact, Not Just Philosophy
This article models the change-making process for organizations, summarizes research on the model, and shows the fundamental connection between change-making skills and the concept called total quality management (TQM). Further, the article models the change-making process as a disciplined multistage, circular creative thinking process and links creative thinking directly to organizational effectiveness. Three key creative thinking skills for org…

Edinburgh breast education campaign on breast cancer and breast self-examination
A health education campaign was carried out at the start of a large trial of screening for breast cancer in Edinburgh. After preliminary studies the campaign concentrated on talks to small groups of women by specially trained health visitors. Over a year, 12,000 women attended. Systematic evaluation after 12 months showed that selected women who heard the talks were more knowledgeable about breast cancer, and a random sample of women in Edinburgh…
Psychiatric morbidity after screening for breast cancer
One hundred and thirty two women with normal breast screening results were interviewed six months after their attendance at the Edinburgh Breast Screening Clinic. Eight percent of women said screening had made them more anxious about developing breast cancer. Thirty eight percent said they were more aware of the disease since screening but they regarded this as advantageous. Seventy percent of the women were still practising breast self-examinati…

Animal Altruism and Co-Operation
Darwin's and Spencer's respective doctrines of “natural selection” and “survival of the fittest” have influenced psychologists' research for the past century. That is, there has been a substantial amount of research devoted to aggression and competition, while little research has been undertaken concerning co-operation and altruism. Both Darwin and Spencer, however, felt that species capable of co-operation, mutual aid, and altruism would be favo…
