Parents’ views on how health professionals should work with them now to get the best for their child in the future
Background Pregnancy and the first years of life are important times for future child well‐being. Early identification of families and children who might be likely to experience poorer outcomes could enable health professionals and parents to work together to promote each child’s well‐being. Little is known about the acceptability and feasibility of such an approach to parents. Objective To investigate parents’ views about how health professional…
Can food vouchers improve nutrition and reduce health inequalities in low-income mothers and young children: A multi-method evaluation of the experiences of beneficiaries and practitioners of the Heal…
Our evaluation of the Healthy Start programme in England suggests that a food subsidy programme can provide an important nutritional safety net and potentially improve nutrition for pregnant women and young children living on low incomes. Factors that could compromise this impact include erosion of voucher value relative to the rising cost of food, lack of access to registered retailers and barriers to registering for the programme. Addressing th…

The article specifically reports on a qualitative study, which used focus groups from a variety of faith communit…

Factor Structure, Validity and Reliability of the Cambridge Worry Scale in a Pregnant Population
This article presents the Cambridge Worry Scale (CWS), a content-based measure for assessing worries, and discusses its psychometric properties based on a longitudinal study of 1207 pregnant women. Principal components analysis revealed a four-factor structure of women's concerns during pregnancy: socio-medical, own health, socio-economic and relational. The measure demonstrated good reliability and validity. Total CWS scores were strongly associ…
A numeracy course for arts undergraduates
As a result of general concern, particularly among careers advisors, the Arts Faculty at the University of Sheffield last year offered short courses in numeracy to its undergraduates. The emphasis of the courses was on a positive approach to numerically based problems rather than on teaching specific formal techniques, since this was felt to be more relevant to Arts graduates' needs. The take-up rate for the course was not high, but those attendi…
