Bayesian Modeling of Test Reliability
A common problem in the estimation of scale reliability is that only modest sample sizes can sometimes be collected due to funding limitations and/or complexity of data collection. A proposed impro
A Tribute to the Mind, Methodology and Mentoring of Wayne Velicer
Wayne Velicer is remembered for a mind where mathematical concepts and calculations intrigued him, behavioral science beckoned him, and people fascinated him. Born in Green Bay, Wisconsin on March 4, 1944, he was raised on a farm, although early influences extended far beyond that beginning. His Mathematics BS and Psychology minor at Wisconsin State University in Oshkosh, and his PhD in Quantitative Psychology from Purdue led him to a fruitful an…

Longitudinal analysis of intervention effects on temptations and stages of change for dietary fat using parallel process latent growth modeling
The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend a 20-35 percent daily intake of fat. Resisting the temptation to eat high-fat foods, in conjunction with stage of readiness to avoid these foods, has been shown to influence healthy behavior change. Data ( N = 6516) from three randomized controlled trials were pooled to examine the relationships among direct intervention effects on temptations and stage of change for limiting high-fat foods. Findings…

A readability analysis of online mental health resources
Analyzing the reading grade level of online mental health information is an important first step in ensuring that information is largely accessible by the general public, so as not to perpetuate existing health disparities across socioeconomic groups. The present study systematically examined grade-level readability of mental health information related to various psychiatric diagnoses, obtained from 6 highly utilized mental health websites, using…
Intervention Effects on Stage of Change Membership and Transitions among Adolescent Energy Balance Behaviors
The transition from childhood to adolescence is a crucial period for the development of healthy behaviors to be sustained later in life. With obesity a leading public health problem, the promotion of healthy behaviors has the potential to make a huge impact. The current study evaluated Stage of Change progression in a large (N = 4158) computer-delivered, Transtheoretical Model-tailored intervention focusing on physical activity and fruit and vege…
A Meta-View of Multivariate Statistical Inference Methods in European Psychology Journals
We investigated the extent and nature of multivariate statistical inferential procedures used in eight European psychology journals covering a range of content (i.e., clinical, social, health, personality, organizational, developmental, educational, and cognitive). Multivariate methods included those found in popular texts that focused on prediction, group difference, and advanced modeling: multiple regression, logistic regression, analysis of co…
Assessing Readiness for Advancing Women Scientists Using the Transtheoretical Model
An Illustration of a Longitudinal Cross-Lagged Design for Larger Structural Equation Models
A model of HIV behavior risk is tested, using a fully cross-lagged, longitudinal design, to illustrate the analysis of larger (i.e., 3 or more variables across 3 or more time points) structural equation models. The constructs in this integrated model were (a) Perceived Risk for AIDS, (b) Decisional Balance (relative weighing of benefits and barriers of condom use), (c) Self-Efficacy for Condom Use, (d) Lifetime Number of Sex Partners, and (d) Beh…
Sexual Communication in Relationships
Student Functioning, Concerns, and Socio-Personal Well-Being
Focusing on Participants
This article presents a model developed and assessed by a women's health research team to enhance sensitivity and increase readability of a survey to be used with community-based women. The survey consisted of quantitative measures of AIDS-related attitudes and behaviors, developed and used with traditional-aged college populations, and included questions of a highly personal nature. In Study 1, 30 women with English reading levels of third grade…
Determinants of Safer Sexual Behavior in a Long-term HIV-seropositive Population
Determinants of safer sexual behaviors among HIV-infected adult men with hemophilia were examined. A model was proposed that personal adjustment, communication skills, self-efficacy, and perceived advantages of condom use would influence safer sex practices. The model was tested with 181 men with hemophilia and HIV infection from 27 hemophilia treatment centers across the United States. The hypothesized model was tested using LISREL and explained…
Sexual Assertiveness Scale (SAS) for women
Four studies were conducted to develop and validate the Sexual Assertiveness Scale (SAS), a measure of sexual assertiveness in women that consists of factors measuring initiation, refusal, and pregnancy-sexually transmitted disease prevention assertiveness. A total of 1,613 women from both university and community populations were studied. Confirmatory factor analyses demonstrated that the 3 factors remained stable across samples of university an…

Psychological Adjustment of College Students from Families of Divorce
This study investigated whelher predictors that have previously been related to adjustment in children of divorce are also sigruf~cant in young adult college students from divorced families. Predictors examined include "inside family" variables (parental con- flict and parent-child relationships), "outside family" variables (nega- f live life events and social sup rt) and "individual" variables (gender and age at time of divorce). k? f 427 studen…
The Transtheoretical Model of Change and HIV Prevention
The transtheoretical model of health behavior change is described and supporting empirical work is presented that reviews the central constructs of the model: the stages of change, processes of change, decisional balance, confidence, and temptation. Model-based applications to a broad range of problem behaviors are summarized. Applications to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevention behavior changes are highlighted for each variable. Finally…
Stages of change and decisional balance for 12 problem behaviors.
This integrative study investigated the generalization of the transtheoretical model across 12 problem behaviors. The cross-sectional comparisons involved relationships between two key constructs of the model, the stages of change and decisional balance. The behaviors studied were smoking cessation, quitting cocaine, weight control, high-fat diets, adolescent delinquent behaviors, safer sex, condom use, sunscreen use, radon gas exposure, exercise…

Towards a General Hierarchical Model of Meaning and Satisfaction in Life
Life events and substance use among adolescents
Throughout history, alcohol and other drugs have been used to provide relief in times of stress and frustration. Research has confirmed this association between disruptive life change events and substance use. It was hypothesized that two psychological constructs facilitate and mediate this relation between stress and substance use. Uncontrollable stress (negative life change events) was assumed to create a sense of loss of control, which in turn…
