  • Combinations of light, moderate, and vigorous physical activity in midlife and old age

    Open AccessJeremy M Hamm, Margie E Lachman et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Behavioral Medicine2025References: 64

    BACKGROUND: Although the relationship between physical activity (PA) and healthy cognitive aging is well-established, little is known about how different combinations of PA across intensities and life domains may uniquely buffer against declines in cognitive health. PURPOSE: This study examined the role of modifiable profiles of light, moderate, and vigorous PA that may operate in tandem across domains to protect cognition in midlife and old age.…

  • Prospective Associations of Parenting and Childhood Maltreatment with Personality in Adolescent Males

    Open AccessJenny M Cundiff, Katherine A Duggan et al.ARTICLEJournal of Research on Adolescence2021References: 5

    This longitudinal study examines whether early experiences with caregivers between the ages of 10 and 12 are associated with later adolescent personality at age 16 using both parent and child reports. Lower positive parenting was prospectively associated with higher neuroticism and lower extraversion and conscientiousness for both parent and self-reports of personality, as well as lower openness and agreeableness by parent report. Substantiated m…

  • Prospective Associations of Adolescent Conscientiousness With Psychological Resources and Metabolic Syndrome in Black and White Men

    Katherine A Duggan, J Richard Jennings et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2019

    OBJECTIVE: Conscientiousness predicts better psychological resources as well as lower cardiovascular mortality and lower metabolic syndrome (MetS) risk. However, the benefits of conscientiousness might be amplified, disabled, or reversed in disadvantaged groups. This study is the first to test these competing hypotheses for prospective associations between adolescent conscientiousness and adult psychological resources and MetS. METHOD: Participan…

  • Cardiovascular Stress Reactivity and Carotid Intima-Media Thickness

    Ryan C Brindle, Katherine A Duggan et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2018

    OBJECTIVE: Exaggerated cardiovascular reactivity to acute psychological stress has been associated with increased carotid intima-media thickness (IMT). However, interstudy variability in this relationship suggests the presence of moderating factors. The current study aimed to test the hypothesis that poor nocturnal sleep, defined as short total sleep time or low slow-wave sleep, would moderate the relationship between cardiovascular reactivity an…
