  • Associations between forced non-consensual first-sex and HIV among sexually active women in the Kingdom of Eswatini

    Nompilo Sibonakele Dlamini, Bongani Zakhele Masango et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2024

    Studies continue to underscore the profound impact of sexual violence on women’s health. Yet, little is known about the impact, via a complex matrix of behavioural and social factors, of first intercourse, namely forced non-consensual on HIV status, particularly among sexually active women (SAW) in low-income countries where HIV prevalence remains high. Using a national sample from Eswatini, we employed multivariate logistic regression modelling …

    Open AccessMeng-Hsuan Wu, Chien Chiao et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2024

    PCE serves as a protective factor, shielding emerging adults from the adverse effects of ACE on persistent insomnia. It is essential to prioritize positive experiences during early life to promote lifelong sleep health

  • Happiness in the air?” the effects of air pollution on adolescent happiness

    Open AccessWen‐hsu Lin, Wen‐Chi Pan et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2019

    Many previous studies have shown the influence of air pollution on physical health and negative emotions, but only a few using adult samples have shown that air pollution is inversely related to positive wellbeing. This study may be the first to examine the effects of air pollution on adolescents' positive affect. Our results echo recent research on the consequent health burden of air pollution. Given that positive affect has been linked to futur…

  • The Effect of Family Cohesion and Life Satisfaction During Adolescence on Later Adolescent Outcomes

    Open AccessWen-Hsu Lin, Wen‐hsu Lin et al.ARTICLEYouth & Society2019Cited by: 5References: 75

    Family factors and adolescent life satisfaction have profound effects on later behavior. The present study examined the effects of family cohesion and life satisfaction on internalizing (depression and self-esteem) and externalizing (deviance) outcomes among adolescents. Moreover, this study also viewed internalizing outcomes as conduits that channeled the effects of family cohesion and life satisfaction on later adolescent deviance. Using the Ta…

  • Subjective Well-Being and Family Structure During Early Adolescence

    Open AccessWen‐hsu Lin, Chin-Chun Yi et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Early Adolescence2018Cited by: 2References: 11

    This study examined changes in subjective well-being (SWB) during early adolescence (seventh grade-ninth grade). We treated SWB as a latent variable, which was measured by life satisfaction, negative emotions, and positive emotions, and employed a growth curve model-to-model change. Aspects of family structure (e.g., parental marital status and members in the household) were included as time-varying covariates. Using a Taiwanese sample ( N = 2,51…

  • Family and School Strains and Their Effects on Adolescent Deviance in Taiwan

    Open AccessWen-Hsu Lin, Wen‐hsu Lin et al.ARTICLEYouth & Society2016Cited by: 4References: 39

    General strain theory is an established criminological theory. Although the theory has been examined by many, the propositions of mediating effects through negative emotions, lower social control, and criminogenic social learning environment are understudied. In addition, previous studies that touched on these mechanisms were limited to cross-sectional data or on samples from Western countries, mostly the United States. Consequently, proper casua…

    Open AccessWen‐hsu Lin, John K Cochran et al.ARTICLESociological Inquiry2011Cited by: 22References: 43

    Using a national probability sample of adolescents (12-17), this study applies general strain theory to how violent victimization, vicarious violent victimization, and dual violent victimization affect juvenile violent/property crime and drug use. In addition, the mediating effect and moderating effect of depression, low social control, and delinquent peer association on the victimization-delinquency relationship is also examined. Based on SEM an…
