Sleep Quality as a Critical Pathway Between Adverse Childhood Experiences and Multimorbidity and the Impact of Lifestyle
Objectives This study aims to establish the effects of ACEs on multimorbidity through sleep quality and investigate whether lifestyle factors (e.g., eating habits and exercise) may influence this relationship among middle-aged and older adults. Methods Participants were drawn from a cross-sectional sample of community dwelling older adults ( N = 276, 55+) and three waves of data from the Midlife in the United States study (MIDUS, N = 843). We exa…
Racial Differences in the Effect of Stress on Health and the Moderating Role of Perceived Social Support
PSS is an important protective factor for preserving positive health in late-life; however, benefits may differ by race and intensity of stressor
Problems Meeting Basic Needs Predict Cognitive Decline in Community-Dwelling Hispanic Older Adults
Objectives. Indices of low socioeconomic status (SES) have been found to predict negative health outcomes. However, problems meeting basic needs (e.g., not having enough money for health care, adequate food, etc.) may be a more potent measure of negative health outcomes than other more typically assessed indices of SES, such as income. This article examined the association between problems meeting basic needs and cognitive decline in a sample of …
Ethnic Differences in Pain Reports and the Moderating Role of Depression in a Community Sample of Hispanic and Caucasian Participants With Serious Health Problems
OBJECTIVE: The present study examined ethnic differences in pain reports between Hispanics (n = 147) and Caucasians (n = 1308) with serious health problems. It was predicted that Hispanics would report more pain in relation to their health problems than would Caucasians, depression would be associated with increased pain reports in both groups, and depression's influence on pain reports would be greater for Hispanics compared with Caucasians. MET…
Perception of Unmet Basic Needs as a Predictor of Physical Functioning Among Community-Dwelling Older Adults
Interventions focused on providing older adults with resources for meeting basic needs may substantially reduce the subsequent level of disability
Perception of Unmet Basic Needs as a Predictor of Mortality Among Community-Dwelling Older Adults
Objectives. We sought to determine whether, among older adults (>65 years), a perception that their basic needs are not being met increased mortality risk and whether this risk varied by race/ethnicity. Methods. We used Cox proportional hazards modeling to estimate the effect of perceived inadequacy in having one’s basic needs (adequacy of income, quality of housing, and neighborhood safety) met on 10-year mortality rates. Results. After control …
Gender, Social Roles, and Mental Health: An Epidemiological Perspective
The Colorado homeless mentally ill: Users and nonusers of services: An empirical investigation of “difficult to treat” characteristics
This study examines the mental health problems of a selected case sample of homeless mentally ill (HMI) men and women in Colorado. The HMI sample was selected to compare those HMI who utilize mental health services (N = 46) with those who do not (N = 50) with respect to psychopathology and to characteristics related to being “difficult to treat.” Findings show that although the HMI current users are slightly more dysfunctional than the non-users,…
