Hispanic/Latina women's perceived barriers and suggestions for self-monitoring food and exercise: A qualitative study
Open AccessCatalina R Pacheco, Kristin Peterson et al.ARTICLEJournal of Health Psychology2025References: 41
Self-monitoring (SM) of diet and exercise is a useful strategy for weight management, either as a standalone treatment or as part of behavioral weight loss (BWL) interventions. However, rates of adherence to SM are often low among Hispanic/Latina women. In this qualitative study, 14 Hispanic/Latina women with overweight or obesity attended focus groups and were asked to identify perceived barriers to SM and suggestions for improving adherence. Tr…

Treatment Retention and Outcomes with the Adolescent Community Reinforcement Approach in Emerging Adults with Opioid Use
Justine W Welsh, Lora L Passetti et al.ARTICLEJournal of Psychoactive Drugs2019
Treatment retention and engagement of emerging adults with opioid use disorders can be particularly challenging. This study compares treatment outcomes of young adults with primary opioid use (OU) to those with primary marijuana or alcohol use (MAU), who received the Adolescent Community Reinforcement Approach (A-CRA), an evidence-based therapy for the treatment of substance use. The MAU and OU groups were comprised of an outcome sample of 419 yo…

The role of familism in weight loss treatment for Mexican American women
Open AccessElizabeth A Mclaughlin, Marita Campos-Melady et al.ARTICLEJournal of Health Psychology2017Cited by: 4References: 26
Mexican American women are disproportionately affected by overweight/obesity and the health complications accompanying them, but weight loss treatments are less successful in this ethnic group. High levels of familism, a value reflecting obligation to family that supersedes attention to oneself, interfere with weight loss for Mexican American women. This mixed methods study investigated overweight Mexican American women's beliefs about how famili…

Posttraumatic Distress and Growth Among Guatemalan War Orphans in Adulthood
Shirley A Heying, David C Witherington et al.ARTICLEInternational Perspectives in…2015
Psychological sequelae of war and genocide can potentially persist into adulthood for child survivors of such tragedies. However, few studies have investigated child survivors’ particular experiences with such sequelae in adulthood, and fewer still distinguish between orphaned and nonorphaned child survivors’ experiences. The present study examined the experiences of posttraumatic distress and psychological growth among a sample of adults ( N = 4…

Coping mediates the relationship between posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms and alcohol use in homeless, ethnically diverse women: A preliminary study
Elizabeth A Yeater, Julia L Austin et al.ARTICLEPsychological Trauma Theory…2010
Homeless women are at increased risk for problematic alcohol use and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). While coping motives have been shown to mediate the relationship between PTSD symptoms and alcohol problems in victims of sexual assault and domestic violence, it is unknown whether this relationship is evident in other trauma-exposed populations. The focus of this study was to examine whether drinking to cope mediated the relationship betwe…

Linking Trajectories of Illness and Dying
Open AccessKarin Olson, Karin L Olson et al.ARTICLEOMEGA - Journal of Death and Dying2001
Despite the large number of theories regarding illness and dying, there is an absence of theoretical work that follows the trajectory from the onset of illness to death. This qualitative study expanded the illness constellation model to include the experience of dying. Following unstructured interviews with 41 individuals (15 ill individuals receiving palliative care, 13 family members of individuals receiving palliative care, and 13 palliative c…
