Socio-structural and individual determinants of HIV/STI prevention behaviors in Chile
Despite ongoing prevention efforts, rates of consistent condom use and testing for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/sexually transmitted infections (STI) remain low in Chile. Understanding how individual and socio-structural behavioral determinants influence these prevention behaviors is essential to developing effective interventions. We analyzed nationally representative data from the ENSSEX 2022–2023 survey (n = 20,392), mapping 44 behaviora…
Psycho‐emotional intervention with parents of very preterm babies during the first year
Studies of intervention programs that aim to improve the emotional state of parents of children admitted to the neonatal intensive care units (NICU) are scarce in Spain. The aims of this single‐arm pilot study are to get to know the emotional profile of parents of high‐risk preterm newborns, and to explore parents' patterns of emotional well‐being before and after a psychological program called the Parental Empowerment Program, to increase parent…
A Training Intervention through a 360° Multisource Feedback Model
Physicians and other health sciences professionals need continuous training, not only in technical aspects of their activity but also in nontechnical, transversal competencies with a cost-efficient impact on the proper functioning of healthcare. The objective of this paper is to analyze the behavioral change among health professionals at a large public hospital following a training intervention on a set of core nontechnical competencies: Teamwork…
Work Climate Scale in Emergency Services
This study is based on a 40-item work climate scale in hospital emergency services (WCSHES). Teams working in these emergency services experience a heavy workload and have a limited amount of time with each patient. COVID-19 has further complicated these existing issues. Therefore, we believed it would be helpful to draft an abridged version of the 40-item WCSHES, considering both validity and reliability criteria, but giving greater weight to va…
Manual Material Handling Training
This study aimed to assess the effect of systematic self-observation, hetero-observational feedback, and feedforward and intrinsic feedback (SsObserWork components) on workers' knowledge and behaviour of a manual material handling (MMH) technique in the industrial sector. Blue-collar workers recruited from a food processing company in Catalonia (Spain) were randomized into SsObserWork ( N = 31) and control ( N = 30) groups. SsObserWork group memb…
Polychoric versus Pearson correlations in exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis of ordinal variables
Evidence-based Decision Making
Over the last 25 years, meta-analysis has been widely used to study the effects of practical treatment interventions in fields ranging from psychology and education to medicine and public health. The present article first describes the impact of meta-analysis. The article then presents a description of some preliminary results of a study of the main design characteristics of published interventions in Europe. In order to foster both better experi…
Effect-Size Indices for Dichotomized Outcomes in Meta-Analysis.
It is very common to find meta-analyses in which some of the studies compare 2 groups on continuous dependent variables and others compare groups on dichotomized variables. Integrating all of them in a meta-analysis requires an effect-size index in the same metric that can be applied to both types of outcomes. In this article, the performance in terms of bias and sampling variance of 7 different effect-size indices for estimating the population s…
A Mutual Catalytic Model of Formative Evaluation
This article describes the `mutual catalytic model' of programme design and formative evaluation. The model presumes two conditions under which it can be useful. Firstly, those responsible for a programme at the point of service delivery should participate equally in a programme's design and in its evaluation. This collaboration will: 1) increase the clarity of programme objectives and the level of consensus regarding them; 2) improve the evaluat…
