Long-Acting HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis Preferences Through Pregnancy and the Postpartum Period Among Women in Kenya
Adherence to daily oral HIV PrEP wanes over pregnancy and postpartum and new long-acting injectable HIV PrEP (LAI-PrEP) methods may address barriers to effective use. Understanding changing LAI-PrEP preferences during the perinatal period could inform the integration into maternal healthcare. We used data from a randomized trial of pregnant women initiating daily oral HIV PrEP at five public maternal child health facilities in western Kenya, foll…
A mediation analysis evaluating change in self-stigma on diabetes outcomes among people with depression in urban India
Self-stigma–the internalization of negative community attitudes and beliefs about a disease or condition–represents an important barrier to improving patient care outcomes for people living with common mental disorders and diabetes. Integrated behavioral healthcare interventions are recognized as evidence-based approaches to improve access to behavioral healthcare and for improving patient outcomes, including for those with comorbid diabetes, yet…
Validity and reliability of the Neilands sexual stigma scale among Kenyan gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men
Our findings suggest enacted and perceived sexual stigma are distinct yet closely related constructs among GBMSM in Kenya and are associated with poor mental health and substance use
What Does Non-standard Employment Look Like in the United States? An Empirical Typology of Employment Quality
Evaluating Employment Quality as a Determinant of Health in a Changing Labor Market
The shifting nature of employment in recent decades has not been adequately examined from a public health perspective. To that end, traditional models of work and health research need to be expanded to include the relational and contractual aspects of employment that also affect health. We examine the association of three health outcomes with different types of employment in the contemporary U.S. labor market, as measured by a multidimensional co…

Do wealth disparities contribute to health disparities within racial/ethnic groups
BACKGROUND: Though wide disparities in wealth have been documented across racial/ethnic groups, it is largely unknown whether differences in wealth are associated with health disparities within racial/ethnic groups. METHODS: Data from the Survey of Consumer Finances (2004, ages 25-64) and the Health and Retirement Survey (2004, ages 50+), containing a wide range of assets and debts variables, were used to calculate net worth (a standard measure o…
Optimizing the Analysis of Adherence Interventions Using Logistic Generalized Estimating Equations
Assessing Alternative Measures of Wealth in Health Research
Objectives. We assessed whether it would be feasible to replace the standard measure of net worth with simpler measures of wealth in population-based studies examining associations between wealth and health. Methods. We used data from the 2004 Survey of Consumer Finances (respondents aged 25–64 years) and the 2004 Health and Retirement Survey (respondents aged 50 years or older) to construct logistic regression models relating wealth to health st…
Testing the degree of cross-sectional and longitudinal dependence between two discrete dynamic processes
Developmental research often involves studying change across 2 or more processes or constructs simultaneously. A natural question in this work is whether change in these 2 processes is related or independent. Associative latent transition analysis (ALTA) was designed to test hypotheses about the degree to which change in 2 discrete latent variables is related. The ALTA model is a type of latent class model, which is a categorical latent variable …
Cross-Sectional Analysis of Time-Dependent Data
The effect of time-related mean differences on estimates of association in cross-sectional studies has not been widely recognized in developmental and aging research. Cross-sectional studies of samples varying in age have found moderate to high levels of shared age-related variance among diverse age-related measures. These findings may be misleading because high levels of association between time-dependent processes can result simply from average…
Gendered Dimensions of Smoking Among College Students
Ethnographic research, including interviews, focus groups, and observations were conducted to explore gendered dimensions of smoking among low level smokers, including the acceptability of smoking in different contexts; reasons for smoking; the monitoring of self and friends’ smoking; and shared smoking as a means of communicating concern and empathy. Important gendered dimensions of smoking were documented. Although males who smoked were describ…
Latent Class and Latent Transition Analysis
Often quantities of interest in psychology cannot be observed directly. These unobservable quantities are known as latent variables. By using multiple items as indicators of the latent variable, we can obtain a more complete picture of the construct of interest and estimate measurement error. One approach to latent variable modeling is latent class analysis, a method appropriate for examining the relationship between discrete observed variables a…
An Alternative Framework for Defining Mediation
The present article provides an alternative framework for evaluating mediated relationships. From this perspective. a mediated process is a chain reaction, beginning with an independent variable that affects a mediator that in turn affects an outcome. The definition of mediation offered here, presented for stage sequences, states three conditions for establishing mediation: (a) the independent variable affects the probability of the sequence no m…
