Community Bias and Black Child and Maternal Health
Evidence‐based complementary feeding recipe book for Kenyan caregivers
The Kenyan Ministry of Health (MOH) and a consortium of nutritionists, researchers and communication, and design specialists developed a novel approach to create an evidence-based recipe book promoting complementary feeding (CF) in Kenya. The ADAPT approach includes five steps: applied research (A), dialogue with stakeholders (D), adapted behaviour change communication (BCC) theories (A), purpose-driven visual communication (P), and tailoring to …
Socioeconomic position over the life-course and subjective social status in relation to nutritional status and mental health among Guatemalan adults
Subjective social status was independently associated with happiness and psychological distress in middle adulthood after adjusting for objective SEP. Moreover, association of objective SEP with health was not mediated by SSS, suggesting potentially independent pathways
Cognitive and socio-emotional correlates of psychological well-being and mental health in Guatemalan adults
Of all examined factors, spirituality and religion made the greatest contribution to psychological well-being. These findings support the notion that in populations experiencing difficult circumstances, religion can perhaps make a greater contribution to well-being and aid coping. More research is needed to examine mediators of this association
Influence of enhanced nutrition and psychosocial stimulation in early childhood on cognitive functioning and psychological well-being in Guatemalan adults
Our findings suggest that childhood nutrition interventions have long-lasting effects on cognitive ability and psychological well-being outcomes
Early childhood development coming of age
Influences of early child nutritional status and home learning environment on child development in Vietnam
Early childhood development plays a key role in a child's future health, educational success, and economic status. However, suboptimal early development remains a global challenge. This study examines the influences of quality of the home learning environment (HOME) and child stunting in the first year of life on child development. We used data collected from a randomized controlled trial of preconceptional micronutrient supplementation in Vietna…
Community Capacity Building and Sustainability
Community capacity building and sustainability are key outcomes of CBPR for communities. Co-learning opportunities that engage and mutually educate both community members and academics can be useful strategies for identifying meaningful strategies to achieve these outcomes
Impacts of domestic violence on child growth and nutrition
A Funding Initiative for Community-Based Participatory Research
Seed grants can foster innovative CBPR projects. Similar initiatives should consider preliminary assessments of community research readiness as well as strategies for meaningful academic researcher engagement
Evaluating Completeness of Maternal Mortality Reporting in a Rural Health and Social Affairs Unit in Vellore, India, 2004
Health systems in developing countries infrequently implement and evaluate maternal death surveillance. This study identified under-reported and misclassified maternal deaths among women of reproductive age between 1999 and 2004 in a rural service unit in Vellore, India. In-depth interviews, semi-structured interviews and structured questionnaires were used to identify maternal deaths known to health care providers and community leaders who regul…
Individual capital and cognitive ageing in Guatemala
Using data from adults 50 years and older in Guatemala (N = 643), we assessed to what extent measures of individual capital-economic, social, intellectual, and biological-were associated with and account for variation in cognitive functioning, as measured by the Modified Mini-Mental Status Exam (M-MMSE). Measures of these components of individual capital are positively associated with cognitive functioning, and together with other attributes, acc…
