Feb 7th 2024, 10:06
Last year, the US Federal Trade Commission handed BetterHelp a $7.8m (£6.1m) fine after the agency found that it had deceived consumers and shared sensitive data with third parties for advertising purposes, despite promising to keep such information private. BetterHelp representatives did not respond to a request for comment from the Observer.

Feb 7th 2024, 09:07
Psychology of Addictive Behaviors, Vol 37(8), Dec 2023, 1019-1029; doi:10.1037/adb0000947
Objective: Adolescents with adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and suicidality may engage in high levels of substance use to alleviate distress. Most studies of associations among ACEs, suicidality, and substance use rely on retrospective reports by adults. Comparatively less is known about concurrent relationships between ACEs, suicide risk, and substance use in adolescents, which is important for prevention. This study tested if the associations between ACEs and drinking and between ACEs and cannabis use would be even stronger among youth with suicidal ideation or attempt, relative to youth without suicidal ideation or attempt. Method: High schoolers (N = 1,625; 50.8% male; 47.1% female; 2% nonbinary) from western New York completed the Youth Risk Behavior Survey. Ordinal regressions tested main effects and interactions of the number of ACEs and suicidal ideation/behavior (i.e., none, ideation/plan, attempt) on categories of past-month drinking and cannabis days of use, controlling for age, gender, and race/ethnicity. Results: Significant ACEs by suicide interactions on adolescent drinking indicate that the association between ACEs and drinking was stronger for adolescents with suicide attempt adjusted odds ratio (AOR = 2.63) compared to youth with no ideation or attempt (AOR = 1.56) and suicidal ideation/planning only (AOR = 1.58). Main effects of ACEs (AORs = 1.95–2.08) and suicide attempt (vs. no suicidal ideation/attempt [AOR = 2.11] and suicidal ideation/plan [AOR = 2.11]) were associated with greater cannabis use; interactions were not significant. Conclusions: Associations between ACEs and drinking were particularly strong for adolescents with suicide attempt. Conversely, ACEs and suicide attempt were independently associated with cannabis use. Mitigating against ACEs may reduce both adolescent alcohol and cannabis use.

Feb 7th 2024, 08:28
Psychology of Aesthetics, Creativity, and the Arts, Vol 17(6), Dec 2023, 694-704; doi:10.1037/aca0000598
This study examined the efficacy of a mindfulness and art-based training program on the creativity and mindfulness disposition of primary school children. A total of 132 school children ages between 7 and 10 years were randomly assigned to an experimental group (N = 60) or a control group (N = 72). The intervention program included six sessions, each lasting 90 min. Two instruments were administered both pre- and posttests: the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire and the Test for Creative Thinking-Drawing Production. A group comparison design with pre- and postassessments was used. The results showed significant differences between the two groups and positive changes in the creativity and mindfulness disposition between the pre- and posttests for the experimental group after completing six sessions of the mindfulness program when compared to the results of the control group. Follow-up assessments are recommended to further investigate the maintenance impact. The development of school-based mindfulness training programs is encouraged to enable more school children to benefit from creativity enhancement using mindfulness training.

(https://ifp.nyu.edu/2024/journal-article-abstracts/law0000401/) The impact of viewing social media images on eyewitness identification.
Feb 7th 2024, 07:31
Psychology, Public Policy, and Law, Vol 29(4), Nov 2023, 457-470; doi:10.1037/law0000401
After observing a crime, eyewitnesses may conduct their own investigation on social media to search for the perpetrator. In two experiments, participants viewed an image of an innocent suspect in the time between viewing a mock-crime video and completing a lineup procedure. The image was presented in the context of a social media search or a police mugbook viewing. A control group viewed no photos of innocent people before the lineup. The same images were used in the mugbook and social media conditions, but the social media profiles were designed so that the innocent suspect stood out as the only person who had mutual friends with the participant. In both experiments, the innocent suspect was more likely to be mistakenly identified if they were previously viewed on social media relative to the control condition. The mugshot viewing also increased innocent suspect identifications, but only after the plausibility of the innocent suspect was increased in Experiment 2. Relative to the control condition, participants who viewed either a mugbook or social media had lower accuracy when they identified the suspect with high confidence. These findings indicate that viewing images of innocent people can contaminate the memory of eyewitnesses, influence identifications at a subsequent lineup procedure, and undermine the eyewitness confidence–accuracy relation.

Feb 7th 2024, 06:36
Psychology of Sexual Orientation and Gender Diversity, Vol 10(4), Dec 2023, 575-588; doi:10.1037/sgd0000565
Affirmative training for lesbian, gay, bisexual, or queer (LGBQ) and transgender and gender nonbinary (TGNB) communities is needed within clinical and counseling psychology training programs. While recommendations have been published, barriers in implementation may prevent students from receiving the training needed to effectively work with LGBQ/TGNB clients. The purpose of the current study was to examine doctoral-level psychology students’ perceived barriers to their program’s LGBQ/TGNB-affirmative training. As part of a larger study, participants (N = 115) completed two open-ended questions online about barriers to affirmative training for clinical work with LGBQ and TGNB clients. Using Consensual Qualitative Research as a framework, an analysis was conducted to identify domains and subdomains based on participants’ responses. A total of seven domains emerged across groups. Overall, statements about Uninformed and Negative Faculty and Inadequate Course Work appeared most often (Typical), along with comments about Insufficient Clinical Training and Insufficient General Training (Frequent). Comparison of participant subgroups revealed that LGBQ/TGNB respondents were more likely to report barriers related to Uninformed and Negative Faculty, as well as Poor Quality of Materials in relation to Inadequate Course Work and Insufficient General Training. Heterosexual/cisgender participants were instead more likely to address Lack of Preparation and Lack of Opportunities to work with these populations (Insufficient Clinical Training domain). Though few differences emerged between domains and subdomains regarding affirmative training for the LGBQ community and the TGNB community, results indicated that students receive less training about TGNB populations compared with LGBQ. Strategies to overcome identified barriers are discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)

Feb 7th 2024, 06:31
Abstract
Combining high birth rates with gender equality and women’s reproductive choice is often put forward as a Nordic success story. We analyze Norwegian governmental commission reports delivered 1984–2017, tracing how fertility issues are approached in policy-making under shifting demographic conditions. We focus on four key topics—pro-natalism, individual versus societal level effects of policies, socioeconomic differences in fertility, and immigration. We see little or no attention given to the fact that policy effects may vary by class background or preferences. Relatively high fertility is considered positive, but pro-natalist intent is downplayed or absent, even when fertility is falling. We connect these findings to the distinctive Nordic dual earner/care-giver model, a historical legacy of “unintentional” pro-natalism, and features of the commission system. We call for more interchange between demography and institutionalist scholarship and argue that questions of macro-level fertility effects of family policies could be better handled in a more explicit debate.

Feb 7th 2024, 04:32
Abstract
Music therapy educators are tasked by the American Music Therapy Association with creating practica placements for students. However, open-ended instructions result in many differing structures of placements and no formal guidelines or codifying supports for educators working with community partners. The purpose of this descriptive survey study was to provide an understanding of music therapy educators’ perspectives on successful and challenging elements of community partnerships and evaluative factors educators use when creating, monitoring, or discontinuing practica placements. Of the 139 participants, 100 currently teach or previously taught music therapy, and their quantitative and qualitative responses were included in data analysis. Educators perceived relational elements of partnerships as greater contributors to success than logistical elements. They identified pro-active and consistent communication (23.69%, n = 59), commitment to the partnership (18.07%, n = 45), and partners’ perception of students providing meaningful services (18.07%, n = 45) as necessary to successful partnerships. The most prominent challenging element was partners who did not value or understand music therapy. However, only 2.9% of educators (n = 2) indicated teaching partners about music therapy and its benefits as a part of their processes for establishing and monitoring community partnerships. The recognition that education and advocacy of music therapy play an underlying role in practica relationships can help guide educators toward more successful partnerships. Recommended future research should include perspectives of community partners and students on practica relationships.

Feb 7th 2024, 03:33
Qualitative Psychology, Vol 10(3), Oct 2023, 375-382; doi:10.1037/qup0000274
The three authors of the 2015 American Psychologist “The Promises of Qualitative Inquiry” article assess the extent to which these promises have been realized in the first decade of Qualitative Psychology. In this review, we first highlight the ways in which contributions to the journal have markedly expanded the palette of legitimate methodologies for addressing important psychological questions. Augmenting traditional nomothetic research, such practices are acutely sensitive to issues of contemporary social and political significance and to the voices of marginalized and underrepresented subgroups. With respect to the flourishing of psychological science more generally, journal contributions have expanded domains of education, relations with other disciplines, and the dimensions of philosophic inquiry into the nature of knowledge. Finally, with respect to psychology’s relationship to the broader public, journal contributions have expanded the reach and efficacy of the discipline’s communication, and offered a model of care—or working with—in its orientation to those otherwise “under study.” As substantial as these achievements have been, significant spaces for improvement are also noted, particularly with respect to creatively expanding the range and variety of practices characterizing qualitative inquiry.

Feb 7th 2024, 02:43
Abstract
Organizations strive to ensure and maintain the reliability, safety, security, usability, and competitiveness of their processes, goods, and services. Improvement of employees’ skills and abilities contributes to these ends and is a relevant issue for the field of human factors. However, going a step further than designing ergonomics, implementing protocols, and conducting training is the attempt to enhance employee skills directly through various technological means. So-called Human Enhancement aims at direct technological interference with the employees’ skills and is a notoriously controversial yet deeply historical phenomenon. Drawing from empirical and theoretical literature on Human Enhancement, we seek to provide an initial analysis of this phenomenon in an organizational context. One motivational aspect of contemporary Human Enhancement is the need to meet internal, often self-related, or external, usually social or organizational, demands. Given the different effects and means of Human Enhancement, some forms are illicit, sanctioned, and/or condemned as morally wrong, while others are obligatory and well-established. Enhancement efforts can be based on individual initiative and, hence, without organizational knowledge. The opposite of the spectrum are enhancements applied by organizational order. We also emphasize how an organizational culture may incentivize engagement with illicit means of Human Enhancement. Potentially linked to safety and security-related aspects, its enhancement effects in relation to these two poles can inform stakeholders in their regulatory decisions.

Feb 7th 2024, 00:56
The Family Journal, Ahead of Print. In this study, we develop a new scale for measuring helicopter parenting of teenagers in India using a sample of 425 teenage students (aged 13–17 years) in the New Delhi education system. The Minor Teen Helicopter Parenting Scale consists of two validated factors of helicopter parenting we label: Pressure and Intrusion. Both factors demonstrated high validity through factor analysis procedures and high levels of reliability (0.804 and 0.709, respectively). Both pressure and intrusion were associated with academic performance and well-being outcomes. Both factors were an improvement over the Helicopter Parenting Scale (HPS) for this age group. Analysis of the HPS did not yield an acceptable reliability (0.422) for these teenagers under the age of 18. Pressure was more related academic performance and school-related outcomes. Intrusion was more associated with general well-being, self-reported health, and happiness. Results suggest the new measure with two subscales is a more age-appropriate tool for assessing helicopter parenting in parents of children not yet in the college or university life stage. Implications for these findings are discussed and future research is considered.

(https://ifp.nyu.edu/2024/journal-article-abstracts/ip-2023-044986v1/) Overview of road traffic injuries among migrant workers in Guangzhou, China, from 2017 to 2021
Feb 7th 2024, 00:31
Introduction
There are many migrant workers in China’s first-tier cities, but little is known about road safety. This paper systematically analysed road traffic injuries and risk factors among migrant workers in Guangzhou, China.
Methods
Road traffic crash data from 2017 to 2021 were obtained from the Guangzhou Public Security Traffic Management Integrated System. We plotted the crash network of road users in road traffic crashes and used logistic regression to analyse the risk factors for migrant workers of motorcycle and four-wheeled vehicle crashes. Moreover, the roles of migrant workers and control individuals as perpetrators in road traffic crashes were also analysed.
Results
Between 2017 and 2021, 76% of road traffic injuries were migrant workers in Guangzhou. Migrant workers who were motorcyclist drivers most commonly experienced road traffic injuries. Crashes between motorcyclists and car occupants were the most common. The illegal behaviours of migrant worker motorcyclists were closely related to casualties, with driving without a licence only and driving without a licence and drunk driving accounting for the greatest number. Migrant workers were responsible for many injuries of other road users. Motorcycle drivers have a higher proportion of drunk driving.
Discussion
Migrant workers play an important role in road traffic safety. They were both the leading source of road traffic injuries and the main perpetrators of road traffic crashes. Measures such as strict requirements for migrant workers to drive motorcycles with licences, prohibit drunk driving, greater publicity of road safety regulations, and combining compulsory education with punishment for illegal behaviours.

Feb 6th 2024, 23:43
Health Education &Behavior, Ahead of Print. It is obvious that current tools in literature that are used to measure female’s sexual quality of life focus only on the objective dimension of sexual function, failing to examine quality of life on a multidimensional level. The aim of this research is to examine the validity and reliability of the ADORE for Turkish society. In the methodological research, 500 females were included. The research data was collected with “Descriptive Information Form” “ADORE” and “Sexual Quality of Life-Female (SQOL-F).” ADORE is a five-Likert-type type and 36-item scale that was developed to assess female’s sexual quality of life. It has six sub-dimensions. It is stated that ADORE can better evaluate female’s sexual quality of life holistically and contextually. The validity of ADORE was analyzed as linguistic, content, and construct validities. In determining the reliability of the scale, item-total score correlation, Cronbach alpha (Cr α) coefficient, Pearson correlation, split-half analysis, test–retest, and parallel form were used. Content validity index was found to be 0.90. The confirmatory factor analysis was performed for construct validity. ADORE’s Cr α reliability coefficient was determined to be .95. According to ADORE test–retest analyses, it was found that there is a positively strong and statistically high significant correlation among scores of the scale. It was determined that there is an acceptable correlation between ADORE and SQOL-F. In determining female’s sexual quality of life in Turkish society, ADORE is a valid and reliable scale. It is a useful scale for health professionals working in the clinic to evaluate female’s sexual quality of life.

Feb 6th 2024, 23:03
There are over 3000 new cases of cervical cancer each year across the UK, most being associated with persistent infection with human papillomavirus (HPV). Cervical screening greatly reduces the risk of cancer and is offered in Scotland to women and individuals with a cervix aged 25–64 years. Cervical screening has been based on HPV testing since 2020.
Two of the main risk factors for the development of cervical cancer are non-engagement in regular screening and socioeconomic deprivation.1 Women experiencing homelessness are particularly vulnerable due to challenges in accessing healthcare. These women are also more likely to smoke, have multiple sexual partners, and are less likely to have received HPV vaccination – all risk factors for cervical cancer. Additionally, women experiencing homelessness are more likely to have experienced childhood sexual abuse than the general population, which may affect their ability to engage in cervical screening.
The Access Place offers primary care,…

Feb 6th 2024, 22:58
Research has proven that engaging in active mobility (AM), namely walking and cycling for transportation, significantly enhances physical activity levels, leading to better physical health. It is still unclear whether AM could also offer any mental health benefits. This scoping review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the current knowledge on the relationship between AM and mental health, given its crucial role in public health. The authors searched online databases to isolate primary studies written in English involving an adult sample (16 or over). AM was the exposure factor. Many mental health elements were included as outcomes (depression, anxiety, self-esteem, self-efficacy, stress, psychological and subjective well-being, resilience, loneliness and social support, quality of life, mood, life satisfaction and sleep). The results were organised in a narrative summary per each outcome selected, graphical syntheses and an overview of gaps to be further examined. The authors identified a total of 55 papers as relevant. The results show inconsistency in study designs, definition and operationalisation of the variables, approach and methodologies used. A cross-sectional design was the dominant choice, primarily examining data from national public health surveys. Nonetheless, there has been improvement in outcomes of interests, initially mainly the quality of life and affect. Lately, authors have focused on a broader range of mental health-related factors (such as travel satisfaction). The experimental studies showed promising mental health improvements in those who used active modes more than those who used motorised vehicles. It creates a rationale for further research towards implementing a unified theoretical and methodological framework to study the link between AM and mental health. The ultimate goal is to generate solid conclusions that could support building societies and cities through public health promotion and sustainable strategies, like walking and cycling as a means of transport.

Feb 6th 2024, 22:33
In this essay, I analyse HIMM comics from the USA, a specific textualisation of graphic medicine/pathography that deals with a variety of illness experiences by male cartoonists. It is my contention that, in the existing literature, the motif of masculinity in autobiographical health-related comics is an underdeveloped area of academic enquiry. As a result, my analysis focuses on how three North American men depict ill health in their work in relation to existing sociological understandings of male behaviour. The texts I discuss are John Porcellino’s The Hospital Suite (2014), a story about his abdominal tumour; Matt Freedman’s exploration of adenoid cystic carcinoma in Relatively Indolent but Relentless (2014); and Peter Dunlap-Shohl’s My Degeneration (2015), which discusses the cartoonist’s experience of Parkinson’s disease. At the same time, I use the concept of hypermasculinity to explore the similar visual and verbal strategies through which these men respond to their physical and emotional suffering. It is my intention to illustrate how HIMM comics provide an important, non-medicalised lens through which clinical practitioners and lay readers alike can better see the subjectivised experience of male illness in the early 21st century. With a focus on the concept of bracketing, the representation of pain and vulnerability, men’s loss of self-identity and hardiness, I explore how HIMM comics act as important counter-narratives to biomedical discourse by visualising the phenomenological aspects of men’s ill health. In this way, the texts in my analytical corpus offer a valuable gender-oriented understanding of the connection between illnesses and (hyper)masculinity.
