    Open AccessJennifer Tang, Tang Jy et al.ARTICLEHealth & Social Care in the…2026

    Background People with severe mental illness are facing significant and unique challenges in their roles as parents or expectant parents. Although evidence‐based parenting programs exist, individuals with severe mental illness are often excluded from such interventions, leaving their support needs largely unmet. Previous reviews mainly focused on in‐person interventions for parents with common mental illnesses. This systematic review aimed to syn…

  • Differential associations between Quantity, content, and context of screen time, and Children's health-related quality of life

    Open AccessCamilla K M Lo, Ko Ling Chan et al.ARTICLEComputers in Human Behavior2024

    Existing literature suggests that lengthy durations of screen time (ST) are associated with lower levels of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and other negative outcomes in children. Nonetheless, the current available evidence largely relies on cross-sectional studies. In addition, data on the content and context (parent–child co-use and solitary use) of ST are scarce. We set out to conduct a one-year, two-wave longitudinal study to investig…

  • The moderated associations of self-compassion with physiological and psychological stress responses

    Open AccessEdward W Chan, Edward Wai Wa Chan et al.ARTICLEJournal of Health Psychology2021References: 51

    Self-compassion has been shown to be protective against stress. Whether its stress buffering effect differs between cancer caregivers and non-caregivers is unknown. This study examined the moderating effect of self-compassion among cancer caregivers relative to non-caregivers by recruiting cancer caregivers from the hospital and a community sample matching on sex and age. Participants completed a questionnaire which comprised the self-reported an…

    Three studies systematically explored the relationship between social support and group identification in the context of how individuals cope with stress. In Study 1, 101 participants took part in a simulated group task where they either received social support or not under conditions of either high or low demand. Social support was associated with higher group identification, and this mediated the effect of social support on more positive apprai…

  • Development of an mHealth trauma registry in the Middle East using an implementation science framework

    Open AccessAmber Mehmood, Edward Chan et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2017

    BACKGROUND: Trauma registries (TRs) play a vital role in the assessment of trauma care, but are often underutilized in countries with a high burden of injuries. OBJECTIVES: We investigated whether information and communications technology (ICT) such as mobile health (mHealth) could enable the design of a tablet-based application for healthcare professionals. This would be used to inform trauma care and acquire surveillance data for injury control…

  • Strategies to improve global influenza surveillance

    Open AccessMelinda Moore, Edward Chan et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2008

    Our practical tool allows policymakers to use their own realistic baseline values and program projections to assess the relative impact of different interventions to improve the probability and timeliness of detecting early human cases or clusters caused by a novel influenza virus, a possible harbinger of a new pandemic. Policymakers can use results to target investments to improve their surveillance infrastructure. Multi-national planners can al…
