Understanding support needs
Meeting the support needs of neurodivergent young adults requires a better understanding of the perspectives of young adults themselves. The objective of this qualitative study is to develop a comprehensive understanding of the nature of support perceived as helpful, incorporating both social and individual perspectives. We interviewed 19 neurodivergent young adults. The data were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis. The analysis resulted …
The role of thought suppression and psychological inflexibility in older family caregivers’ psychological symptoms and quality of life
Family caregivers often report high levels of distress, including depressive symptoms, anxiety, and reduced quality of life. There is a need for a greater understanding of the factors influencing, explaining, and maintaining psychological distress in family caregivers. The aim of this study was to examine whether avoidance strategies such as thought suppression (WBSI), psychological inflexibility (AAQ-II), and, and caregiver experiential avoidanc…
The relationship between loading history and proximal femoral diaphysis cross‐sectional geometry
OBJECTIVES: We investigated the relationship between loading history and bone biomechanical properties used in physical activity reconstructions. These bone properties included bone bending and torsional strength (J), cortical area (CA), the direction of the major axis (theta angle), and element shape ratios determined from cross sections of standardized bone length. In addition, we explored the applicability of anatomically determined cross sect…
