Aug 6th 2023, 06:06

Abstract
The performance of children and young adults with Down syndrome (DS) on reading subskills and nonword reading was investigated. The performance of the participants with DS (N = 42) was compared to that of typically developing (N = 36) peers matched on fluid intelligence abilities. The study accounted for the different depths in orthography presented by the two languages. The independent samples t-test, Mann–Whitney U-test, ANCOVA and correlation analysis were used to analyse the data. This study identified that the participants with DS had several strengths, such as nonword reading, visual discrimination (VD) and phonological awareness. Verbal short-term memory, visual perceptual processing skills other than VD and rhyming skills were identified as weaker in DS compared with the control group. Results call for educators to expose readers with DS to a phonological approach to reading while accommodating difficulties in VSTM.

Aug 6th 2023, 05:08

Self-care has been lauded as a strategy to advance universal health coverage by placing users at the centre of health systems, supporting equitable access to health services, and improving health system resilience.1 Because self-care is by its nature often practised outside of the formal health system, self-care monitoring and evaluation (M&E) is challenging and requires novel approaches. The WHO has issued and updated global sexual and reproductive health (SRH) self-care guidance,1 but M&E standards have not yet been developed. As a result, routine M&E of self-care practice and programmes within national health systems is sparse and fragmented.2 Improving the validity, availability, and standardisation of SRH self-care data is critical for strengthening evidence-based self-care delivery models. The Self-Care Trailblazer Group (SCTG) is a global coalition that aims to advance evidence-based SRH self-care policies and programmes. The SCTG Evidence and Learning Working Group (ELWG) led the…

Aug 6th 2023, 04:53

Professional Psychology: Research and Practice,  Vol 54(3), Jun 2023, 203-212; doi:10.1037/pro0000505
Lack of a common language is one of the major barriers to providing mental health services for people with refugee backgrounds. However, while research shows that using interpreters can present some challenges, there is little research that focuses on people with refugee backgrounds, particularly research that considers the specific challenges and benefits related to interpreter-mediated mental health sessions. As such, this study aimed to investigate the experiences of both interpreters and mental health practitioners (MHPs) regarding the potential ways of improving interpreter-assisted mental health care for people with refugee backgrounds. Seventeen participants (eight MHPs and nine interpreters) working with refugees in Australia were interviewed. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Analysis returned four major themes: “importance of briefing and debriefing,” “interpreters as part of the therapeutic relationship” (with two subthemes—“trust” and “choosing the same interpreter”), “interpreter–client interactions,” and “specialized training.” This study found that interpreters have various roles and are a key part of the therapeutic relationship with MHPs and people with refugee backgrounds. Future studies should investigate training for both interpreters and MHPs, as well as developing new guidelines specific to interpreter-assisted mental health care for people with refugee backgrounds.

Mental health professionals are caught in a dilemma. They worry that the NHS will not get the necessary resources to deal with what amounts to a mental health crisis but, like many sectors in British society, are highly ambivalent about the role of the police and are deeply disturbed by a gathering catalogue of incidents in which public trust in both individual police officers and the institution itself is deeply damaged.

Aug 6th 2023, 02:54

Psychological Methods,  Vol 28(3), Jun 2023, 507-526; doi:10.1037/met0000429
The replicability crisis has drawn attention to numerous weaknesses in psychology and social science research practice. In this work we focus on three issues that cannot be addressed with replication alone, and which deserve more attention: Functional misspecification, structural misspecification, and unreliable interpretation of results. We demonstrate a number of possible consequences via simulation, and provide recommendations for researchers to improve their research practice. Psychologists and social scientists should engage with these areas of analytical and statistical improvement, as they have the potential to seriously hinder scientific progress. Every research question and hypothesis may present its own unique challenges, and it is only through an awareness and understanding of varied statistical methods for predictive and causal modeling, that researchers will have the tools with which to appropriately address them.

Aug 6th 2023, 01:54

In Japan, end-of-life care education in the critical care field is still insufficient. Therefore, this study developed and verified the effectiveness of an end-of-life care program for faculty in the critical care field in Japan through a randomized controlled trial. The study was implemented from September 2016 to March 2017. Participants were 82 college teaching staff and nurses working in the critical care field. Six months after the program, data of 37 members (84.1%) of the intervention and 39 members (88.6%) of the control group were analyzed. The results demonstrated that the primary end point—“confidence in teaching” 6 months after program completion—differed significantly between the 2 groups (2.5 [0.69] in the intervention group vs 1.8 [0.46] in the control group, P

Aug 6th 2023, 01:54

Increasing numbers of US older adults die in long-term care facilities. This qualitative study explored nursing home resident, family member, and staff perspectives and preferences regarding end-of-life care for the resident. From 67 potential participants referred by staff, 47 were found eligible and consented, including 16 residents, 10 family members, and 20 staff. A semistructured questionnaire guided the interview process and included questions such as what matters most at the end of life and whether participants would opt for any of the 8 aggressive treatments proposed for a resident at the end of life. Data were analyzed using descriptive and pattern coding for thematic interpretation. The 3 themes that emerged were centrality of comfort, what matters most at the end of life, and promoting comfort. All participant groups overwhelmingly endorsed comfort as a priority. Some participants would accept aggressive treatment to alleviate suffering and promote comfort. Residents were concerned about the well-being of their families, whereas family members emphasized the importance of their presence and that their dying relatives were not suffering. Staff sometimes filled this role on their behalf. Ancillary staff emphasized bathing, dressing, and grooming the resident to preserve the resident’s dignity. The results support comfort as a priority for care at the end of life and the need for more discussion to increase mutual agreement on goals of care and what promotes comfort for the resident and family.

Aug 6th 2023, 01:16

Affilia, Ahead of Print. Immigrant well-being sits at the intersections of race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and gender. Cumulative migration stressors, poverty, and socio-cultural factors have made female immigrants of sub-Saharan African descent especially susceptible to poor psychological outcomes. Furthermore, family characteristics including birth order, family size, and interpersonal relationships are known correlates of physical and mental health functioning. And yet, African immigrants are often aggregated into larger groups, effectively masking the groups’ unique historical and cultural characteristics. This phenomenological study examined how the identity of “daughter,” birth order, and transnational experiences inform the well-being of young African women. Participants (N = 11) who self-identified as cis-gender females were invited for two cycles of in-depth interviews. These young women contextualize their identities around family and familial obligations. They struggle with the contradictions of the parent–child relationship and credit parenting strategies they sometimes view as problematic with their career and academic drive. Feelings of being overwhelmed by familial and social expectations are countered by excitement around their emerging liberated identities. These findings point to the need for inclusive spaces which consider the multiple identities they embody.

Aug 5th 2023, 22:18

Journal of Interpersonal Violence, Ahead of Print. Technology-facilitated abuse (TFA) against sexual and gender minority (SGM) adults is a serious though understudied issue. Few studies have examined the types, extent, and perpetrators of TFA against SGMs, and those that have analyzed any of these phenomena have mostly done so with samples of youths. This article offers results of a nationally representative survey on experiences of TFA among a sample of 2,752 U.S. adults aged 18 to 35 years, including 504 SGMs. The prevalence and types of TFA against SGMs were examined using a 27-item inventory capturing six general types of TFA, including surveillance, cyber-interference/communications, reputational harm, monitoring/tracking, fraud, and controlling/limiting access. Respondents could also indicate their relationship to the perpetrator. Results revealed significant differences in the prevalence, types, and perpetrators of TFA against SMGs (compared to non-SGMs), such that SGMs experienced greater levels of TFA victimization, were more likely to be victimized by perpetrators who were not intimate or ex-intimate partners, and were more likely to experience all forms of TFA, except for monitoring/tracking. No significant differences were found for general experiences of TFA victimization between cisgender and non-cisgender individuals or between sexual minority males and sexual minority females. Results thus show that although SGMs and non-SGMs experience similar types of TFA, SGMs experience TFA at higher rates. These findings provide a vital foundation for future work on TFA victimization among SGMs and offer insights for policy and practice, particularly for practitioners and clinicians working with SGMs. Findings indicate a potential need for greater access to health care, victim services, technological support, and legal aid for SGMs due to their increased risk of TFA victimization.

Aug 5th 2023, 21:18

Journal of Interpersonal Violence, Ahead of Print. Residential mobility remains an underexplored yet critical construct that may influence the risk of violence among women who exchange sex. This study examined the longitudinal relationship between residential mobility and experience of client-perpetrated physical or sexual violence among women who exchange sex in Baltimore, Maryland. Participants were at least at 18 years of age, were cisgender women, reported having engaged in transactional sex three or more times within the last 3 months, and were willing to be contacted for 6-, 12-, and 18-month follow-up visits. Analyses of responses from 370 women who exchange sex participating in at least one study visit were conducted. Unadjusted and adjusted Poisson regression models of the association over time between residential mobility and recent experience of physical or sexual violence were fit. Generalized estimating equations with an exchangeable correlation structure and robust variance estimation were used to account for clustering of participants’ responses over time. Findings demonstrated that those who had lived in at least four places in the past 6 months had a 39% increased risk of client-perpetrated physical violence (aRR: 1.39; 95% CI: 1.07–1.80; p < .05) and a 63% increased risk of sexual violence (aRR: 1.63; 95% CI: 1.14–2.32; p < .01) compared to their less-mobile counterparts. These findings provide necessary evidence of correlations over time between residential mobility and experience of client-perpetrated violence among women who exchange sex. Strengthening our understanding of how residential mobility intersects with violence is critical for the development of public health interventions that are relevant to women’s lives and needs. Future interventions should explore including residential mobility, a critical pillar of housing instability, with efforts to address client-perpetrated violence.

Childhood, Ahead of Print. This essay engages with ideas of agency and relationality to reimagine possibilities for young people’s modes of learning about and creating poetry. We describe a partnership between a high school and college class in which we minimized our authority as instructors to make space for young people’s collaborative agency in shaping a poetry exchange project. Our analysis of participants’ references to relationality in a post-project survey revealed relational dimensions of participants’ learning, influencing, and creating as supported by collaborative agency.

Background:Among the causes associated with suicide there are social factors such as forced displacement has been described and health factors in general that have an impact on pediatric mental health.Aims:To describe clinical and psychosocial factors, and their relationship with suicidal behavior in a Colombian indigenous community.Participants and setting:The mean age were 9.23 years old, 53.7% male and 46.3% female.Method:Mixed approach study. A thematic analysis was carried out with the youth of the community to investigate emotional aspects. A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out and correlations between variables were made.Results:Correlations were found between suicidal behavior and medical findings. When comparing the mental health disorders and nutritional problems, statistically significant differences were found in the Suicide Risk domain (<.001). This was reaffirmed in the thematic analysis, where factors such as migration and difficulty understanding the language are highlighted as related to suicidal behavior in the pediatric population.Conclusions:Suicidal behavior should not be approached solely from psychopathology. Hunger, the weakening of one’s own culture, armed conflict, migration, and other clinical conditions are found to be associated with suicidal behavior.

Implementation Research and Practice, Volume 4, Issue , January-December 2023. BackgroundCancer patients who receive evidence-based tobacco-dependence treatment are more likely to quit and remain abstinent, but tobacco treatment programs (TTPs) are not consistently offered. In 2017, the U.S. National Cancer Institute, through the Cancer Moonshot, funded the Cancer Center Cessation Initiative (C3I). C3I supports 52 cancer centers to implement and expand evidence-based tobacco treatment in routine oncology care. Integration into routine care involves the use of health information technology (IT), including modifying electronic health records and clinical workflows. Here, we examine C3I cancer centers’ IT leadership involvement and experiences in tobacco-dependence treatment implementation.MethodThis qualitative study of C3I-funded cancer centers integrated data from online surveys and in-person, semistructured interviews with IT leaders. We calculated descriptive statistics of survey data and applied content analysis to interview transcripts.ResultsThemes regarding IT personnel included suggestions to involve IT early, communicate regularly, understand the roles and influence of the IT team, and match program design with IT funding and resources. Themes regarding electronic health record (EHR) modifications included beginning modifications early to account for long lead time to make changes, working with IT to identify and adapt existing EHR tools for TTP or designing tools that will support a desired workflow developed with end-users, and working with IT personnel to make sure TTPs comply with system and state policies (e.g., privacy laws).ConclusionsThe experiences of C3I cancer centers regarding the use of health IT to enhance tobacco-dependence treatment program implementation can guide cancer centers and community oncology practices to potentially enhance TTP implementation and patient outcomes.Plain Language SummaryAlmost a quarter of patients first diagnosed with cancer report current cigarette smoking. There are tobacco treatment programs (TTPs) that effectively help patients quit smoking to improve cancer treatment response, survival, and quality-of-life. In 2017, the U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) funded the Cancer Center Cessation Initiative (C3I) and supported 52 cancer centers to implement these TTPs. A key component of these programs is the information technology (IT) necessary to refer patients to the program and document their progress. As coordinators of C3I, our team conducted interviews with IT leaders at these cancer centers to learn about the implementation of the programs. IT leaders suggested that IT teams be involved early in the program implementation process and that leaders communicate with the IT team regularly to address necessary changes to referral and documentation systems. IT teams are important to involve early and regularly throughout the TTP implementation process because they have unique knowledge of how funding, policy, and existing technological tools will impact the implementation and success of the program. Our findings emphasize the importance of involving IT teams early in the planning process for such programs. Studies such as this focusing on the experiences and knowledge of specific team members, such as the IT team, enhance tobacco-dependence treatment program implementation and can guide cancer centers and community oncology practices to implement these programs to improve patient outcomes.
