Theoretical Perspectives on Hookah Smoking Behavior: A Scoping Review of Studies Among Young Adults in Low- and Middle-Income Countries
Hookah smoking among young adults is a growing public health concern, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Despite its prevalence, comprehensive reviews evaluating theoretical frameworks used to study this behavior are lacking. This scoping review synthesized studies examining hookah smoking behaviors among young adults in LMICs. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Google Scholar, and CINAHL using keywords such…
Exploring Patterns of the Use of Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems among Adolescents in High-Risk Appalachian (U.S.A) Communities
Background: Electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) use among adolescents in the United States (U.S.) has surpassed conventional tobacco products (CTPs), including cigarettes. Increasingly, ENDS are used concurrently with CTPs and substances such as cannabis. However, few studies involve Central Appalachia, a region with historically high rates of tobacco and other substance use. Objective: To examine prevalence of concurrent use of ENDS and …
A Retrospective Cross-Sectional Study on the Prevalence of E-cigarette Use Among College Students
Feasibility of Utilizing Social Media to Promote HPV Self-Collected Sampling among Medically Underserved Women in a Rural Southern City in the United States (U.S.)
The findings underscore that the majority of the MUW are overdue for cervical cancer screening, regularly use social media, and are willing to participate in social media-driven intervention. Social media could be used to promote HPV self-testing among MUW
Theory of Planned Behavior and Perceived Role Model as Predictors of Nutrition and Physical Activity Behaviors Among College Students in Health-Related Disciplines
Multi-Theory Model and Predictors of Likelihood of Accepting the Series of HPV Vaccination: A Cross-Sectional Study among Ghanaian Adolescents
HPV vaccines are efficacious in preventing HPV related cancers. However, the vaccination uptake in Ghana is very low. Studies that utilize theoretical frameworks to identify contributory factors to HPV vaccination uptake in Ghana are understudied. We used multi-theory model (MTM) constructs to predict initiation and completion of HPV vaccination series in Ghanaian adolescents. Adolescents ( n = 285) between the ages of 12 and 17 years old were re…
Establishing Validity and Reliability of a Health Belief Model and Acculturation Scale for Measuring Safe-Sex and Sexual Communication Behaviors Among African Immigrants for Protecting Against HIV/Aid…
The objective of the study was to develop a valid and reliable scale for measuring safer sex and sexual communication behaviors among African immigrants. A 68-item instrument based on Health Belief Model (HBM) and acculturation was validated. The test-retest reliability (n = 30) and internal consistency (n = 412) were also tested. A confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) using structural equation modeling (SEM) was used for establishing the construct…
