Oct 6th 2023, 14:52

Journal of Applied Psychology,  Vol 108(9), Sep 2023, 1425-1444; doi:10.1037/apl0001084
The diversity–validity dilemma is one of the enduring challenges in personnel selection. Technological advances and new techniques for analyzing data within the fields of machine learning and industrial organizational psychology, however, are opening up innovative ways of addressing this dilemma. Given these rapid advances, we first present a framework unifying analytical methods commonly used in these two fields to reduce group differences. We then propose and demonstrate the effectiveness of two approaches for reducing group differences while maintaining validity, which are highly applicable to numerous big data scenarios: iterative predictor removal and multipenalty optimization. Iterative predictor removal is a technique where predictors are removed from the data set if they simultaneously contribute to higher group differences and lower predictive validity. Multipenalty optimization is a new analytical technique that models the diversity–validity trade-off by adding a group difference penalty to the model optimization. Both techniques were tested on a field sample of asynchronous video interviews. Although both techniques effectively decreased group differences while maintaining predictive validity, multipenalty optimization outperformed iterative predictor removal. Strengths and weaknesses of these two analytical techniques are also discussed along with future research directions. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)

Oct 6th 2023, 13:52

Qualitative Health Research, Ahead of Print. In qualitative research, photographs and other visual data have been used with oral narratives in ethnography, interviews, and focus groups to convey and understand the perceptions, attitudes, and lived experiences of participants. Visual methodologies that incorporate photographic data include photo elicitation, which has varied approaches with the inclusion of photographs generated by researchers or participants, and Photovoice, which is a form of photo elicitation focused on participatory action research. Current literature provides insufficient guidance on a systematic coding process of visual data elements that could maximize capturing of visual data for qualitative analysis. We describe our rationale and process for developing a two-step systematic process for coding visual data, specifically photographs. The two-step systematic process for coding photographs involves coding the foreground (focal point) and then the background of the photograph, using separate codebooks. Application of this two-step coding approach resulted in surfacing additional rich data on the health-related contexts and environments in which participants lived. Incorporation of this methodology could enhance understanding of the context of health and generate ideas and new directions of inquiry.

Oct 6th 2023, 12:52

Hispanic/Latinx communities remain an underserved population in terms of health and physical activity opportunities. The rise of sport specialization can jeopardize these opportunities. Understanding the appeal and welcomeness that minoritized populations feel toward sport and sport specialization culture can play an important role in health promotion and breaking down barriers that widen the gap on physical activity levels in Hispanic/Latinx communities. To date, these studies have not qualitatively investigated Hispanic/Latinx youth sport dyads (parent and child) and how sport specialization perceptions have affected their sport participation experiences. We used a qualitative interpretative phenomenological analysis to explore experiences of Hispanic/Latinx high school athletes. We engaged in semistructured interviews with 12 parent-child dyads. The following 3 interrelated themes emerged: (a) expectations of youth sport participation, (b) meeting expectations of youth sport participation, (c) and (mis)alignment of cultures. Dyads describe a negative youth sport experience when both cultures do not align because of the rise in sport specialization and pay-to-play culture. Findings indicate that dyads understand what is necessary to participate in organized sport and do this by methods that are rooted in their Hispanic/Latinx culture.

Oct 6th 2023, 11:52

The United Nation’s Agenda 2030 recognizes unpaid domestic caregiving in the home as the largest barrier to gender equality. However, little research has been conducted to understanding the social process through which fathers engage in caregiving. The purpose of this constructivist grounded theory study was to explore the social process of caregiving in fathers. Recruited from multiple community settings, 35 fathers participated in intensive interviews with the investigator. The initial interview guide was developed through Swanson’s Theory of Caring and modified as themes emerged. Data analysis occurred using an iterative categorization matrix for organization and clarity. This study proposed the action-based Caregiving in Fathers Theory. The 3 main themes of the theory center on the following: (1) reconciling the past through “Reinventing the Kitchen Table”; (2) managing the present through “Creating a Home”; and (3) preparing for the future through “Discovering Empowerment.” For fathers, gender equality in society begins with accepting fathers as proficient, competent, and primary caregivers. This theory reveals the motivations of fathers in participating in unpaid domestic caregiving in the home.

Oct 6th 2023, 10:47

The Prison Journal, Ahead of Print. Prior research has identified the importance of social climate in psychiatric and correctional facilities. In studies of corrections officer (CO) stress, organizational measures are typically the strongest correlates. This article combines these research areas, examining the relationship between prison climate and corrections officer stress. Analyzing data from a sample of 239 officers in a northeastern state, findings indicate that prison climate, particularly system maintenance, contributes to both officers’ work-related and generalized stress and anxiety. Perceptions of inmates’ personal growth are also associated with decreased generalized stress and anxiety. Officers should feel supported and safe at work to improve the prison climate and reduce officer stress.

Oct 6th 2023, 10:46

Palliative Medicine, Ahead of Print. Background:Several clinician training interventions have been developed in the past decade to address serious illness communication. While numerous studies report on clinician attitudes and confidence, little is reported on individual education modalities and their impact on actual behavior change and patient outcomes.Aim:To examine what is known about the education modalities used in serious illness communication training and their impact on clinician behaviors and patient outcomes.Design:A scoping review using the Joanna Briggs Methods Manual for Scoping Reviews was conducted to examine studies measuring clinician behaviors or patient outcomes.Data sources:Ovid MEDLINE and EMBASE databases were searched for English-language studies published between January 2011 and March 2023.Results:The search identified 1317 articles: 76 met inclusion criteria describing 64 unique interventions. Common education modalities used were: single workshop (n = 29), multiple workshops (n = 11), single workshop with coaching (n = 7), and multiple workshops with coaching (n = 5); though they were inconsistently structured. Studies reporting improved clinician skills tended to be in simulation settings with neither clinical practice nor patient outcomes explored. While some studies reported behavior changes or improved patient outcomes, they did not necessarily confirm improvements in clinician skills. As multiple modalities were commonly used and often embedded within quality improvement initiatives, the impact of individual modalities could not be determined.Conclusion:This scoping review of serious illness communication interventions found heterogeneity among education modalities used and limited evidence supporting their effectiveness in impacting patient-centered outcomes and long-term clinician skill acquisition. Well-defined educational modalities and consistent measures of behavior change and standard patient-centered outcomes are needed.

Oct 6th 2023, 10:46

Journal of Rural Mental Health, Vol 47(4), Oct 2023, 201-210; doi:10.1037/rmh0000236
Those seeking treatment for opioid or substance use disorder (OUD/SUD) often face obstacles, which may be exacerbated in rural areas. Barriers to treatment, such as access, stigma, and policies that no longer reflect the current needs of clients seeking treatment for OUD/SUD, are well-documented. However, barriers once engaged in treatment that impact persistence are relatively unstudied. This study sought to understand the barriers related to effective treatment provision with clients in OUD/SUD treatment, particularly those in rural settings. This exploratory qualitative study consisted of two focus groups with 18 graduate social work and counseling psychology students completing a two-semester practicum at OUD/SUD treatment facilities. The student practitioners were trained in screening, intervention, and treatment services for SUD in rural and underserved locations. Participants reflected on the barriers for clients who sought OUD/SUD treatment and the subsequent impact on treatment efficacy. Three themes emerged, including Substance Use Treatment and Criminalization Policies, Rurality, and COVID-Related Adjustments. Mitigating barriers to OUD/SUD treatment, particularly in rural communities, is important to effectively address treatment needs. Understanding the ongoing support needed for clients to address barriers once engaged in treatment is critical to treatment persistence. Recognizing and addressing the identified barriers, particularly those with macro or community-level impacts, supports the client’s harm reduction, treatment, and recovery needs to better position clients for successful outcomes.

Oct 6th 2023, 10:46

Organizational Research Methods, Ahead of Print. Organizational researchers are now making widespread use of ecological momentary assessments but have not yet taken the logical next step to ecological momentary interventions, also called Just-in-Time Adaptive Interventions (JITAIs). JITAIs have the potential to test within-person causal theories and maximize practical benefits to participants through two developmental phases: The microrandomized trial and the randomized controlled trial, respectively. In the microrandomized trial design, within-person randomization and experimental manipulation maximize internal validity at the within-person level. In the randomized controlled trial design, interventions are delivered in a timely and ecological manner while avoiding unnecessary and ill-timed interventions that potentially increase participant fatigue and noncompliance. Despite these potential advantages, the development and implementation of JITAIs require consideration of many conceptual and methodological factors. Given the benefits of JITAIs, but also the various considerations involved in using them, this review introduces organizational behavior and human resources researchers to JITAIs, provides guidelines for JITAI design, development, and evaluation, and describes the extensive potential of JITAIs in organizational behavior and human resources research.

Oct 6th 2023, 10:46

Journal of Rural Mental Health, Vol 47(4), Oct 2023, 211-220; doi:10.1037/rmh0000239
Provision of telepsychological services rose dramatically during the COVID-19 pandemic and continues to be a highly sought service (Calkins, 2022; Madigan et al., 2021). With this rise came increased awareness of ethics of telepsychology, new resources, and a push for training to provide competent virtual services. In rural, remote, and northern (RRN) Canadian communities, increased use of telepsychological services translated into greater access in areas that have historically had exceptional barriers to receiving psychological services. However, there has been less conversation regarding cultural competency issues that can arise when psychology services are offered to individuals in RRN communities. Rather, there may be an assumption that these are just smaller versions of urban centers, with no modifications needed. RRN communities present with diverse geographies, economic conditions, and cultures, often differing from each other and urban Canadian centers. This diversity necessitates the mental health clinician practice cultural humility to provide a culturally safe therapeutic setting; however, it can be difficult to be aware of aspects of culturally safe care within the context of telepsychology, particularly if the provider is not familiar with the client’s rural or remote community. This article outlines considerations for providing RRN culturally competent telepsychological services, beginning with defining RRN, and exploring RRN competent practices. We then discuss the regulatory issues of providing culturally informed and responsive telepsychological services to these communities. Finally, we highlight practical considerations for psychologists and trainees working within RRN communities. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)

Oct 6th 2023, 10:45

Chronic Illness, Ahead of Print. ObjectivesThis study was conducted with the aim of determining the validity and reliability of the Persian version of “General Medication Adherence Scale (GMAS)” in chronic patients in Iran.MethodologyThe study was conducted among patients with chronic diseases in five hospitals of Iran. In this study, after cultural validation, using the steps of Content, Response Reaction, and Internal structure evaluations, the research sample was increased to 150 individuals for exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and 313 chronic patients for confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to confirm the construct validity. Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was used to assess internal consistency, and test-retest method was used to evaluate the reliability of the tool.FindingsThe results of EFA and CFA confirmed the tool with three factors and 11 items. The R2 index in the above model was estimated at 0.99, indicating that 99% of the variation in medication adherence scores in research units was explained by GMAS with 11 items. The main indices of the model in factor analysis were all above 0.9, indicating a good fit for the model.DiscussionOverall, the study results showed that the Persian version of GMAS has acceptable and practical characteristics for evaluating medication adherence, and it can be used as a valid tool in various related fields.

Oct 6th 2023, 10:45

Chronic Illness, Ahead of Print. ObjectiveCancer survivors have unique healthcare needs. An important consideration for survivorship is chronic diseases and health risk factors. The purpose of this study is to describe demographics, risk factors, and comorbid health conditions in adult cancer survivors.MethodWe analyzed 2019 Arizona Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data to compare cancer survivors to non-cancer survivors (aged 18 or older) to assess differences between the two populations. Adjusted and unadjusted population-based estimates and 95% confidence intervals were calculated, and multivariable logistic regression models were performed.ResultsEight thousand nine-hundred and twenty (8920) respondents (1007 survivors; 7913 non-cancer survivors) were included. Compared to non-cancer survivors, cancer survivors were more likely to be female, 65 years and older, non-Hispanic white, veterans, and less likely to be employed. Survivors had higher rates of coronary heart disease, stroke, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, kidney disease, hypertension, arthritis, multiple chronic conditions, being overweight, and being a former smoker. Survivors were more likely to report fair/poor health than non-cancer survivors.DiscussionThese findings can be used by healthcare and public health practitioners to evaluate the programmatic efforts and resources, implement targeted interventions toward cancer survivors, and improve health and quality of life.

Oct 6th 2023, 10:44

Journal of Occupational Health Psychology, Vol 28(5), Oct 2023, 277-290; doi:10.1037/ocp0000358
This study examines the predictive value of conflict and conflict-related variations in negative emotion dynamics, with respect to three cortisol indicators (cortisol awakening responses; overall cortisol output; diurnal cortisol slopes). A total of 166 workers provided momentary reports on conflict(s) with colleagues and negative emotions 10 times a day for 2 workdays and salivary cortisol samples 5 times a day. The results of latent growth curve piecewise multilevel models revealed that the occurrence of a conflict and the number of conflicts introduced significant variations in specific cortisol parameters indicating greater cortisol levels throughout the day. Moreover, the conflict-elicited negative emotion boost predicted a lower reduction of cortisol levels from morning to evening. Last, the postconflict decline in negative emotions was negatively associated with overall cortisol production. This study contributes to establishing a potential association between naturally occurring episodic conflicts at work and daily cortisol patterns, identifying within-person fluctuations in negative emotions as psychological mechanisms through which this occurs.

Oct 6th 2023, 10:44

Culture &Psychology, Ahead of Print. To understand the life world of Indian eunuchs who face a stigmatized societal status, the present study adopted an ethnographic approach. The study explored Indian Hijras’ experiences vis-à-vis mainstream society. The issues that were explored included their perception of their societal status, their perceptions about the societal reaction towards them and ways they navigate through these challenges to create a meaningful life. A theoretical sample of eight Hijras was drawn and studied using semi-structured interviews and participant observation. Data was analysed using ethnographic content analysis and researcher’s reflection. Results reveal that hijras experience a life of crisis, which is fuelled by rejection in social relationships (particularly family), discrimination and exclusion at an early age, bullying, and their popular perception as sex workers. Their crises is financial (poverty and lack of employment opportunities), social and psychological (questioning one’s gender identity), resulting in isolation, loneliness, feeling of being abandoned, of being wronged, and perceived life dissatisfaction. All these factors contribute to meaninglessness in the lives of hijras and they start questioning their existence. Their efforts for a meaningful life revolve around cultivating familial relationships through adopting children, taking up parenting roles and nurturing the guru-chela relationship. Results also reveal positive experiences, that is largely due to their political participation and social service. The study has important policy implications for the Hijras. There is a need to create awareness about the unique life challenges of the Hijras, and help promote social justice and their right to education and employment.

Oct 6th 2023, 10:44

Journal of Occupational Health Psychology, Vol 28(5), Oct 2023, 310-324; doi:10.1037/ocp0000360
Previous research has typically conceptualized physical activity as a recovery activity after work that promotes well-being by allowing employees to detach from work and replenish their resources. Here, we aimed to go beyond this framework by proposing a new theoretical model of how physical activity in the morning before work affects employee well-being. Drawing upon the transactional theory of stress, we theorized that physical activity before work shapes employees’ appraisal of their upcoming workday which, in turn, affects their well-being. In a preregistered study (N = 269), we utilized a within-person daily experience sampling approach to test our model. Results showed that two types of appraisals are particularly important for explaining the effects of physical activity before work on employee well-being: First, challenge appraisal mediated the effects of physical activity before work on work engagement. Second, we found an indirect effect via threat appraisal of physical activity before work on job-related anxiety. Exploratorily, we found that threat appraisal also mediated the effect of physical activity before work on emotional exhaustion. In conclusion, our results show that physical activity before work is beneficially related to several types of well-being outcomes by increasing challenge appraisal and decreasing threat appraisal. Furthermore, our study advances theoretical understanding on physical activity and work stress by shedding light on the mechanisms underlying the effect of physical activity on employee well-being and showing that physical activity before work benefits well-being by shaping how employees appraise their work situation on a day-to-day basis.

Oct 6th 2023, 09:52

OMEGA – Journal of Death and Dying, Ahead of Print. The COVID-19 pandemic compounded isolation for patients through social distancing measures and staff shortages. We were concerned about the impact of COVID-19 on the quality of care provided at end-of-life in 2021 in a national cancer centre, and instigated the first ever review of the care of the dying. Quality of care was assessed retrospectively using a validated instrument developed by the United Kingdom’s National Quality Board. Sixty-six patient deaths occurred in our cancer centre in 2021. The ‘risk of dying’ was documented in 65.2% of records. Palliative care services were involved in 77%, and pastoral care in 10.6%. What was important to the patient was documented in 24.2%. The ‘quality-of-death’ score was satisfactory for most but poor in 21.2%. Our study prompted change, including appointment of an end-of-life coordinator, development of a checklist to ensure comprehensive communication, expansion of the end-of-life committee to include junior doctors, and regular audit.

Oct 6th 2023, 09:52

Qualitative Research, Ahead of Print. Equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) and anti-oppression (AO) policies are implemented in research to address intersecting systemic barriers for marginalized populations. Grant applications now include questions about EDI to ensure researchers have considered how research designs perpetuate discriminatory practices. However, complying with these measures may not mean that researchers have engaged with AO as praxis. Three central points emerged from our work as a women’s research collective committed to embedding AO practices within the research methodology of our community-based study. First, research ideas must be connected to larger pursuits of AO in and across marginalized communities. Secondly, AO as praxis in the research design is an exercise in centering cultural knowledge and pragmatic research preparation and response that honours the collective. Lastly, AO approaches are not prescriptive. They must shift, adapt, and change based on the research project and team, creating space for transformative resistance and emancipation of racialized researchers and community workers.

Oct 6th 2023, 08:53

The Psychic Pain Scale (PPS) measures a form of mental pain involving overwhelming negative affect and loss of self-control. Understanding psychic pain among men is needed to advance efforts for preventing male suicide. The present study examined the factor structure and psychosocial correlates of the PPS among 621 online help-seeking men. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated a higher-order factor comprising affect deluge and loss of control factors. Psychic pain evinced significant associations with general psychological distress, r = 0.64; perceived social support, r = −0.43; social connectedness, r = −0.55; and suicidal ideation, r = 0.65 (all p’s

Oct 6th 2023, 08:09

Background
Over the past 3 years, a multitude of studies have highlighted the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health of children and young people (CYP). In this umbrella review, we synthesise global evidence on the impact of COVID-19 on the mental health of CYP from existing systematic reviews with and/or without meta-analysis.
Methods
Adopting the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, we evaluated 349 citations and identified 24 eligible reviews with medium to high methodological quality to be reviewed narratively.
Results
Most of the reviews reported a high prevalence of anxiety disorders, depression, suicidal behaviour, eating disorders and other mental health problems. Most studies that used data at multiple time points indicate a significant increase in mental health problems in CYP, particularly in females and older adolescents.
Conclusions
Multipronged psychosocial care services, policies and programmes are needed to alleviate the burden of mental health problems in CYP as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic and associated global health measures.

Oct 6th 2023, 07:53

Poor family functioning is associated with higher symptom severity in pediatric obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and delayed help-seeking behavior in other forms of psychopathology. However, little is known about the impact of family functioning on help-seeking behavior and symptom severity in adults with OCD. The present study investigated the association between family functioning and both treatment delay and symptom severity in adults with obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Participants were 194 adults who self-identified as having OCD and completed an internet survey, including measures assessing family functioning, obsessive-compulsive symptom severity, help-seeking behavior, and depression symptom severity. Poorer family functioning was associated with higher obsessive-compulsive and depression symptom severity, after controlling for significant demographic variables. With respect to domains of family functioning, poorer general functioning, problem solving, communication skills, role functioning, affective involvement, and affective responsiveness were associated with higher obsessive-compulsive and depression symptom severity, after controlling for demographics. Poorer problem solving and communication were not significantly associated with treatment delay after controlling for demographics. Findings highlight the need for family intervention within the treatment framework for adult OCD and suggest targets (e.g., communication) to be addressed.
