Examining Daily Associations of Nature Exposure, Body Appreciation, and Physical Activity Among Adolescents
While physical activity and greater body appreciation are protective for adolescent health, these factors experience reductions during adolescence. Nature exposure, like spending time in natural environments, can provide benefits for health, but its link with body appreciation has not been investigated in adolescents, and results are mixed for physical activity, as prior literature largely lacks objective, individual-level measures. Guided by the…
Perceived neighborhood crime safety moderates the relationship between depressive symptoms and sedentary behavior among Hispanic/Latino adults
Sedentary behavior is related to the development of several chronic diseases, including type II diabetes and some cancers. Unfortunately, the rate of sedentary behavior among adults, particularly US Hispanic/Latino adults, is very high. One factor known to contribute to sedentary behavior is depression. However, little is known about how depressive symptoms may be related to sedentary behavior among Hispanic/Latino adults, or the role of sociocul…
Examining group differences in health and depression among sexual and gender diverse individuals
Preliminary evaluation of a brief worksite intervention to reduce weight stigma and weight bias internalization
The role of food reward in the associations between weight-based discrimination and feeding practices among caregivers of young children
A Translational Case Study of a Multisite Covid-19 Public Health Intervention Across Sequenced Research Trials: Embedding Implementation in a Community Engagement Phased Framework
Through a COVID-19 public health intervention implemented across sequenced research trials, we present a community engagement phased framework that embeds intervention implementation: (1) consultation and preparation, (2) collaboration and implementation, and (3) partnership and sustainment. Intervention effects included mitigation of psychological distress and a 0.28 increase in the Latinx population tested for SARS-CoV-2. We summarize community…
Community Partner Perceptions of Equitable Implementation Practices for a Promotores de Salud Intervention: A Qualitative Assessment
We conducted focus groups with staff from 5 community-based organizations (21 participants; 86% female, 52% Hispanic/Latino/a/x and 24% Mexican/Mexican American) between August and October 2021. Results highlighted community partner perceptions of practices congruent (e.g., communication that built trust and dismantled power dynamics, a shared mission) and incongruent (e.g., intervention–community misalignment, research driven decision-making) wi…
Development and design of a culturally tailored intervention to address Covid-19 disparities among Oregon's Latinx communities: A community case study
Background: Latinx communities are disproportionately affected by COVID-19 compared with non-Latinx White communities in Oregon and much of the United States. The COVID-19 pandemic presents a critical and urgent need to reach Latinx communities with innovative, culturally tailored outreach and health promotion interventions to reduce viral transmission and address disparities. The aims of this case study are to (1) outline the collaborative devel…
Effects of a Health Education Intervention for Covid-19 Prevention in Latinx Communities: A Cluster-Randomized Controlled Trial
To promote COVID-19 preventive attitudes and behaviors among Latinx individuals, researchers and community partners implemented a culturally tailored health education intervention across 12 Oregon counties from February 2021 through April 2022. We did not identify any significant intervention effects on preventive attitudes and behaviors but did observe significant decreases in psychological distress. Although Latinx individuals’ preventive attit…
Perceived Neighborhood Crime Safety Moderates the Association Between Racial Discrimination Stress and Chronic Health Conditions Among Hispanic/Latino Adults
Background: Little is known about the link between perceived neighborhood walkability and prevalence of chronic disease. Even less is known regarding this association among Hispanic/Latino adults, despite exhibiting high rates of chronic diseases. Stress due to racial discrimination is a harmful social determinant of health in Hispanics/Latinos. Having both low perceived neighborhood walkability and high racial discrimination stress may exacerbat…
Open Campus Policies: How Built, Food, Social, and Organizational Environments Matter for Oregon’s Public High School Students’ Health
Open campus policies that grant access to the off-campus food environment may influence U.S. high school students' exposure to unhealthy foods, yet predictors of these policies are unknown. Policy holding and built (walkability), food (access to grocery stores), social (school-to-neighborhood demographic similarity), and organizational (policy holding of neighboring schools) environment data were collected for 200 Oregon public high schools. Thes…
The impact of afterschool program attendance on academic outcomes of middle school students
This evaluation examined the effects of afterschool programs—supported by an afterschool system intermediary organization (ASIO)—on middle school students' academic performance and examined how those effects varied by student characteristics and program engagement. In this longitudinal, quasi‐experimental matched comparison group evaluation, propensity score matching was used to create demographically balanced samples of ASIO‐supported afterschoo…
A cross-country study of mis-implementation in public health practice
Decisions about continuing or ending a program were often seen as a function of program popularity and funding availability as opposed to effectiveness. Policies and practices pertaining to programmatic decision-making should be improved in light of these findings. Future studies are needed to understand and minimize the individual, organizational, and political-level drivers of mis-implementation
Measurement Noninvariance of Safer Sex Self-Efficacy Between Heterosexual and Sexual Minority Black Youth
The Sexual Self-Efficacy Scale does not perform equally well among Black heterosexual and LGBQ youth. Study findings suggest additional research is needed to inform development of measures for safer sex self-efficacy among Black LGBQ youth to ensure validity of conceptual understanding and to accurately assess effectiveness of HIV/STD prevention interventions among this population
