The concordance between the Montreal cognitive assessment and the repeatable battery for the assessment of neuropsychological status as a cognitive screening tool in a south African community sample
We aimed to compare the concordance between the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS), as cognitive screening tools to detect mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in a South African adult community sample ( N = 370). The MoCA showed acceptable internal consistency, agreement with the RBANS and good criterion-related validity. The MoCA demonstrated fair performance, compa…
Validation of the Child Depression Screening Tool in three African settings
The unavailability of reliable, easy-to-use depression screening tools adapted for Sub-Saharan African children is a significant barrier to the treatment of childhood depression. We thus adapted the Child Depression Screening Tool (CDST) to the South African (SA), Senegalese (S) and Rwandan (R) contexts, as a tool to screen for depression in children suffering from chronic illnesses, trauma and difficulties related to COVID-19, family and communi…
Participants’ experiences of a counsellor-supported PTSD Coach intervention in a resource-constrained setting
We explored participants' experiences of a counsellor-supported PTSD Coach mobile application intervention (PTSD Coach-CS) in a randomised controlled trial. PTSD Coach-CS participants, who received the intervention and self-completed a custom-designed questionnaire at intervention completion were included ( n = 25; female = 20; ages 19-59; isiXhosa = 22). This questionnaire comprised questions regarding the feasibility, acceptability and potentia…
A counsellor-supported ‘PTSD Coach’ intervention versus enhanced treatment as usual in a resource-constrained setting
To widen treatment access for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in resource-constrained South Africa, we evaluated the feasibility and effectiveness of a counsellor-supported PTSD Coach mobile application (app) (PTSD Coach-CS) intervention on PTSD and associated sequelae in a community sample. Participants (female = 89%; black = 77%; aged 19-61) with PTSD were randomised to PTSD Coach-CS ( n = 32) or enhanced Treatment-as-Usual ( n = 30), and …
Neuropsychological Test Norms for the Assessment of HIV-Associated Neurocognitive Impairment Among South African Adults
Reliable and valid neurocognitive (NC) test batteries that assess multiple domains of cognitive functioning are vital tools in the early detection of HIV-associated NC impairment. The HIV Neurobehavioral Research Center's International Neurobehavioral Battery (HNRC Battery) is one such diagnostic tool and has shown cultural validity in several international neuroHIV studies. However, no published norms are currently available for the full HNRC Ba…
The prevalence of mental health problems in sub-Saharan adolescents
Background and purpose Most research regarding child and adolescent mental health prevention and promotion in low-and middle-income countries is undertaken in high-income countries. This systematic review set out to synthesise findings from epidemiological studies, published between 2008 and 2020, documenting the prevalence of mental health problems in adolescents from across sub-Saharan Africa. Methods A systematic search of multiple databases (…
Cognitive insight is associated with perceived body weight in overweight and obese adults
Some aspects of cognitive insight (self-certainty) but not cognitive functioning were associated with perception of body weight in this sample. Awareness of recent weight changes, higher BMI and advice from of health care professionals were also significantly associated with perception of body weight, while demographic variables were not. Understanding the factors that contribute to the correct perception of weight is important in identifying app…
