Racial and nonracial discrimination and tobacco use among high school students in California
Sanctioned discrimination: Asylum seekers and the UK's hostile environment
Patterns in Tobacco, E-Cigarette, and Cannabis Advertising Exposure Among California Adolescents and Associations With Future Use Expectations
BACKGROUND: Exposure to tobacco, e-cigarette, or cannabis marketing is associated with adolescent use. Few studies have examined advertising exposure prevalence and patterns across these products concurrently. METHODS: = 2530). Principal components analysis (PCA) was conducted to examine the underlying structure and patterns in advertising exposure sources. Multivariable logistic regression was used to evaluate associations between any advertisin…
Impact of survey item wording on reported tobacco use among youth: Effect of adding ‘even one or two puffs’ to use questions
Having ever used tobacco is a key surveillance metric. Existing tobacco use survey items differ in their inclusion of minimal use language, such as "even one or two puffs." This study aimed to quantify how minimal use language affects tobacco ever use prevalence estimated from adolescent surveys. Participants (N=5127) in the 2022 Teens, Nicotine, and Tobacco Project online panel survey of California adolescents (ages 12-17) were randomized to one…
The subcomponents of affect scale (SAS): Validating a widely used affect scale
OBJECTIVE: There is a need for a brief affect scale that also encompasses different components of affect relevant for researchers interested in physiological and health outcomes. The Subcomponents of Affect Scale (SAS) meets this need. This 18-item scale has nine positive and nine negative affect items encompassing six subscales (calm, well-being, vigour, depression, anxiety, anger). Previous research using the SAS has demonstrated its predictive…
I think we can do without [tobacco]”: Support for policies to end the tobacco epidemic among California adolescents
Most participants supported strong tobacco control policies. Public communication that promotes broader endgame benefits besides protecting youth and accelerates industry denormalisation may counter youth concerns and further bolster their support
Ethnicity and Language Differences in Patient Experience: An Analysis of the HCAHPS Survey
BACKGROUND: Although there has been a rising emphasis on patient-centered care, limited research has assessed differences in patient experience based on ethnicity and language. METHODS: This study examined differences in quality of care (N = 6945) using the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey. Data were collected between January 2014 and April 2019. Bivariate and multivariate analyses assessed relation…
Race, Ethnicity, and Insurance: The Association with Opioid Use in a Pediatric Hospital Setting
BACKGROUND: This study examined the association between race/ethnicity and health insurance payer type with pediatric opioid and non-opioid ordering in an inpatient hospital setting. METHODS: Cross-sectional inpatient encounter data from June 2013 to June 2018 was retrieved from a pediatric children's hospital in Southern California (N = 55,944), and statistical analyses were performed to determine associations with opioid ordering. RESULTS: Ther…
Experimental priming of peer injunctive norms and peer descriptive norms on personal alcohol attitudes, behaviors, and motivations
Purpose: Several theoretical frameworks postulate that perceptions about social normative information could modify personal attitudes and behavior. The current experiment applied priming methodology to activate the mental representations of peer injunctive norms (perceptions about the attitudinal approval of friends) and peer descriptive norms (perceptions about the behaviors of friends) for alcohol on personal alcohol attitudes, behaviors, and m…
Applying Multilevel Modeling to Understand Individual and Cross-Cultural Variations in Attitudes Toward Homosexual People Across 28 European Countries
Individual and cross-cultural factors associated with attitudes toward homosexual people were examined in this study. Using cross-sectional data from the sixth biennial European Social Survey, which represents 36,959 individuals nested within 28 European countries, successive nested models were tested using multilevel modeling (MLM). Results found that attitudes varied cross-culturally as a function of people’s country of residence—this clusterin…
