Just World Beliefs in a Time of Crisis
Belief in a just world (BJW) is well established as a coping resource, particularly for those times when the world is experienced as uncertain, unpredictable, and uncontrollable. The early days of the COVID-19 pandemic was such a time, and therefore provided an opportunity to test the boundary conditions of BJW theorizing. Here, we make a new methodological contribution, testing (a) cross-lagged panel effects of BJW on mental health and well-bein…
Effects of Government Mistrust and Group-Based Medical Mistrust on Covid-19 Vaccine Hesitancy Among a Sample of African Americans
BACKGROUND: Despite the demonstrated efficacy of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccines, higher rates of vaccine hesitancy among African Americans remain concerning. As determinants of vaccine hesitancy, the simultaneous roles of government mistrust and group-based medical mistrust have not been examined via from a cognitive information perspective among African Americans. PURPOSE: We examined the direct and indirect effects of government mistru…
The Duties We Owe to One Another
To the Editor:I interviewed recently for a job at a school of social work, an experience involving significant and surprising acts of incivility. I did not get the job – but because of the way I wa
Cognition and Wealth Changes in Mid-to-later Life
ObjectivesTo assess how cognitive trajectories from mid-to-later life relate to wealth change, overall and by mid-life income. Methods: Data were from participants (51-64 years) in the 2000-2018 U.S. Health and Retirement Study who were cognitively healthy at baseline (year 2000; unweighted n = 3821). Longitudinal latent class analyses generated cognitive and wealth trajectories, independently, and multinomial logistic regressions estimated the a…
Message framing for men? Gender moderated effects of culturally targeted message framing on colorectal cancer screening receptivity among African Americans
Receptivity to recommended colorectal cancer (CRC) screening can be enhanced by use of loss-framed health messaging that emphasizes possible consequences of failing to act. However, a simultaneous use of culturally targeted messaging may be needed to achieve effectiveness when loss-framed messaging is used with African Americans, especially to reduce racism-related cognitions aroused by standard loss framing that impede CRC screening receptivity.…
Complex effects of racism and discrimination on African Americans' health and well-being
Moderators of the effects of perceived racism and discrimination on cancer-related health behaviors among two samples of African Americans
Survey of Adherence with Covid-19 Prevention Behaviors During the 2020 Thanksgiving and Winter Holidays Among Members of the Covid-19 Community Research Partnership
Prevention behaviors represent important public health tools to limit spread of SARS-CoV-2. Adherence with recommended public health prevention behaviors among 20000 + members of a COVID-19 syndromic surveillance cohort from the mid-Atlantic and southeastern United States was assessed via electronic survey following the 2020 Thanksgiving and winter holiday (WH) seasons. Respondents were predominantly non-Hispanic Whites (90%), female (60%), and ≥…
Covid-19-Related Changes in Assistance Networks for U.S. Older Adults with and without Dementia
Early in the pandemic, assistance networks of older adults adapted by substituting helpers, by contracting to reduce exposures with more intimate tasks for recipients with dementia, and by reducing transportation assistance. Future research should explore the impact of such changes on the well-being of older adults and their assistance networks
Factors Associated With Racial/Ethnic Group–Based Medical Mistrust and Perspectives on Covid-19 Vaccine Trial Participation and Vaccine Uptake in the US
Importance: The impact of COVID-19 in the US has been far-reaching and devastating, especially in Black populations. Vaccination is a critical part of controlling community spread, but vaccine acceptance has varied, with some research reporting that Black individuals in the US are less willing to be vaccinated than other racial/ethnic groups. Medical mistrust informed by experiences of racism may be associated with this lower willingness. Objecti…

What If a Resident or Medical Student Is Raped? Hospitals' and Academic Medical Centers' Title IX Obligations
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 protects medical students and residents from all forms of sexual discrimination, including sexual harassment and assault. Hospitals that train residents as well as medical students must follow Title IX mandates, including investigating and addressing all reports of sexual discrimination, harassment, or violence. While these processes can help eliminate potential barriers to women in medical training, t…
American Crime
The final season of ABC’s American Crime focused on human trafficking in rural North Carolina. Unlike many earlier television depictions, American Crime illustrated a more realistic portrayal of modern trafficking by showing how “nice families” can be involved in this crime and how various tools are used to control victims. The show’s storylines include powerful portrayals of farm labor and domestic help trafficking. Unlike earlier Hollywood offe…
Explaining between-race differences in African-American and European-American women's responses to breast density notification
Understanding the role of family dynamics, perceived norms, and lung cancer worry in predicting second-hand smoke avoidance among high-risk lung cancer families
Reducing exposure to environmental tobacco smoke significantly reduces lung cancer risk. We used family communication patterns theory and the theory of planned behavior to examine whether perceived norms and lung cancer worry more strongly influenced intentions to avoid environmental tobacco smoke in families higher in conformity and conversation orientations. Results from 52 individuals in 17 high-risk lung cancer families showed injunctive norm…
Negatively valenced expectancy violation predicts emotionality
We hypothesized that negatively valenced expectancy violations about the quality of 1's life would predict negative emotionality. We tested this hypothesis in a 4-wave longitudinal study of breast cancer survivors. The findings showed that higher levels of negatively valenced expectancy violation, at earlier time points, were associated with greater negative emotionality, at later time points. Implications of the findings are discussed. (PsycINFO…

Predicting Incongruence between Self-reported and Documented Colorectal Cancer Screening in a Sample of African American Medicare Recipients
Assessments of colorectal cancer (CRC) screening rates typically rely on self-reported screening data, which are often incongruent with medical records. We used multilevel models to examine health-related, socio-demographic and psychological predictors of incongruent self-reports for CRC screening among Medicare-insured African Americans (N = 3,740). Results indicated that living alone decreased, and income increased, the odds of congruently self…
Language Analysis as a Window to Bereaved Parents' Emotions During a Parent-Physician Bereavement Meeting
Parent-physician bereavement meetings may benefit parents by facilitating sense making, which is associated with healthy adjustment after a traumatic event. Prior research suggests a reciprocal relationship between sense making and positive emotions. We analyzed parents' use of emotion words during bereavement meetings to better understand parents' emotional reactions during the meeting and how their emotional reactions related to their appraisal…
Intoxicated prejudice
Recent research has shown that alcohol consumption can exacerbate expressions of racial bias by increasing reliance on stereotypes. However, little work has investigated how alcohol affects intergroup evaluations. The current work sought to address the issue in the context of the correspondence between implicit and explicit measures of anti-black attitudes. Participants were randomly assigned to consume an alcoholic (target BAC of 0.08%), placebo…
The effects of subjective norms on behaviour in the theory of planned behaviour
A meta‐analysis investigated the effects of perceived injunctive (IN) and descriptive (DN) norms on behaviour (BEH) within the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) in a sample of 196 studies. Two related correlation matrices (pairwise and listwise) were synthesized from the data and used to model the TPB relations with path analyses. Convergent evidence indicated that the relation between DN and BEH was stronger than the relation between IN and BEH.…
Legion Theory
William James and many other early pioneers of psychology and psychiatry endorsed the notion of parallel rational conscious streams in the human mind and suggested that an understanding of multiple personalities, in what is now known as Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), was the key to developing an appropriate model of the mind. A new meta-theory of psychology, Legion Theory, developed from an inductive study of the specific characteristics o…
