Jan 11th 2024, 14:16

Abstract
This article examines the relationship between burnout and working from home (WFH) during the COVID-19 pandemic, with particular focus on the experiences of Brazilian women who are mothers. Burnout is a state of chronic stress characterized by emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment. Previous research has shown that WFH may be associated with lower levels of physical and mental well-being and higher levels of perceived stress and burnout. Mothers may be more vulnerable to burnout due to increased childcare responsibilities and the persistence of traditional gender roles. Thus, this cross-sectional, on-line study aimed to evaluate the relationship between burnout and motherhood among home-office workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Burnout was evaluated using the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory, a self-report scale that measures Personal Burnout (PB), Work-related Burnout (WB) and Client-related Burnout (CB). We included 196 women: 85 were mothers, and 69 lived with their children. Mothers who lived with children younger than 12 years old had higher levels of PB (p < 0.001) and WB (p = 0.001) when compared to mothers who lived with older children or non-mothers. Multiple linear regression analyses found that an increase in childcare load predicted higher levels of all three types of burnout (PB: β = 0.32, p < 0.05; WB: β = 0.33, p < 0.05; CB: β = 0.42, p < 0.001), while an increase in workload only predicted higher work-related burnout (PB: β = 0.18, p = 0.204; WB: β = 0.35, p < 0.05; CB: β = −0.02, p = 0.877). These results call for greater attention to the mental health of mothers who work from home, especially those with younger children.

Jan 11th 2024, 13:23

Abstract
School-based screening instruments have traditionally focused on assessing within-child factors, such as a student’s academic, social, emotional, behavioral, or physical development. This emphasis in school-based screening may be a missed opportunity to assess and ameliorate contextual factors (i.e., social determinants of health) influencing child development. In this scoping review, we aim to describe the current landscape of screening for social determinants of health (SDOH) in school settings. Following established practices for scoping reviews, we searched PsycInfo, ERIC, and CINAHL Plus in December 2022 for articles describing the development or use of an SDOH measure in a school setting. From each eligible article, two coders independently extracted (1) study characteristics, (2) measure characteristics, (3) available psychometric or usability information, and (4) reported outcomes of measure implementation. Descriptive and content analyses were used to examine data. We identified six articles describing the development or use of SDOH measures in elementary, high school, or university settings. These articles yielded six unique SDOH measures, intended for either adolescent or young adult self-report, caregiver proxy-report, or both. Measures included 6–25 SDOH items, with additional items assessing demographics, health behaviors, or mental health (e.g., depression). Reported outcomes included increased referrals to services and implementation of school-based supports to reduce social risk (e.g., school food pantry). We discuss next steps for research evaluating the feasibility and social consequences of school-based SDOH screening.

Jan 11th 2024, 13:18

Abstract

Purpose
Youth intimate partner violence (YIPV) is an under-researched topic within the field of domestic violence. This is particularly true of same-sex YIPV. In this article, the words of one young man, Philip, are analyzed to explore how he narrates his process of defining his sexual experiences as abuse and, consequently, himself as a possible victim of IPV.

Methods
The qualitative in-depth interview with Philip was conducted as part of a larger study on YIPV in Norway, with a specific focus on sexual YIPV. The article is framed both theoretically and methodologically by the assumption that narratives give meaning to our experiences. Meta-narratives and turning points are used as tools for narrative analysis.

Results
Important contextual issues in Philip’s storyline include his prior exposure to severe homophobic bullying, being forced to return to the closet as his partner had not yet come out, and no prior experience of serious romantic relationship. Influential cultural meta-narratives regarding IPV and gender that complicate his process of identifying his experiences as abuse include the violence of adult men towards adult women, the ever-present male sex drive, and the importance of physical violence and bodily size and strength. The findings are discussed in light of the theory of the ideal victim.

Conclusion
Schools need to include sexual minority youth when teaching about sex and relationships, and professionals working with youth need to actively ask them about experiences of violence and abuse in their relationships, regardless of their sexuality.

Jan 11th 2024, 11:18

Abstract

Purpose
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a global problem with severe health and human rights implications. However, prevention of IPV recidivism has proved difficult, with high levels of treatment non-adherence including failure to complete IPV perpetration programs.

Method
The present study involved gathering data from the records of 169 men convicted of perpetrating intimate partner violence in Northern Ireland. Using a hierarchical binary logistic regression, motivation/readiness to change, as measured by the pre-contemplative stage of the Rhode Island Change Assessment Scale (URICA), was investigated as a predictor of IPV intervention program completion. The analysis also included deception covariates (self-deception and impression management).

Results
The results show that higher scores on the pre-contemplative subscale of the readiness to change scale were significantly associated with failure to complete the program, with an odds ratio of OR 0.93 (inverted OR = 1.08). The covariate self-deception was also significant in the final model, with higher scores in self-deception leading to an increased chance of non-completion, with an odds ratio of 0.89 (inverted OR = 1.12). A post-hoc Chi-Square test was carried out that showed treatment completers were less likely than non-completers to breach their probation conditions χ2(1, n = 148) = 69.85, p =  < 0.001.

Conclusion
Due to the potentially positive impact of completing an intervention program for IPV perpetrator outcomes, the present study is important in terms of indicating that motivational stage, as well as self-deception, are relevant to treatment compliance. This finding suggests that targeting areas such as treatment readiness and self-deception may lead to improved treatment adherence and IPV perpetrator rehabilitation.

Jan 11th 2024, 09:24

The World Trade Center disaster rescue workers and other responders continue to bear the burden of multiple co-morbidities, including metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease, systemic inflammation, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This study describes the findings of a pilot randomized controlled trial assessing the feasibility of a nutrition intervention, focusing on the Mediterranean diet pattern to reduce weight and systemic inflammation among World Trade Center responders with overweight/obesity and PTSD. The study was feasible with high participant retention and satisfaction. Nutrition programming contributed to diet improvement, reduction of weight, waist circumference, body mass index, lipid and inflammatory biomarkers, and PTSD symptoms.

Abstract
Objective
Responders of the World Trade Center (WTC) disaster suffer from co-morbidities. A Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet) nutrition intervention with physical activity was implemented among WTC responders with overweight/obesity and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Methods
WTC Health Program members (N = 62), 45–65 years, males 87%, body mass index (BMI) 27–45 kg/m2 randomized to MedDiet (n = 31) or usual nutrition counseling (n = 31). The 10-week intervention included online nutrition education, text messages, and group experiential cooking; both groups had three in-person individual nutrition counseling. Anthropometrics, serum biomarkers, psychosocial factors, MedDiet score, and PTSD symptoms were assessed at baseline, post-intervention, and 3-months (follow-up). The primary outcome was intervention feasibility and secondary outcomes were within- and between-group changes of all measures at post-intervention and follow-up. Nonparametric Wilcoxon rank sum tests for between-group comparisons and Wilcoxon signed rank tests for pre-post within-group comparisons.
Results
A total of 58(94%) and 46(74%) participants completed the post-intervention and follow-up measurements, respectively. Both groups experienced significant improvements in anthropometrics, MedDiet score, oxidized low-density lipoprotein, and PTSD symptoms. Baseline median (range) were weight 100.42 (73.66–135.17) kg, BMI 33.20 (27.50–41.75) kg/m2, and Waist circumference (WC) 109.22 (90.17–150.62) cm. Median % weight loss at post-intervention was MedDiet: −3% (−11%–7%), p = 0.0002; Control: −1% (−13%–4%), p = 0.008 and at follow-up MedDiet: −2% (−14%–12%), p = 0.07; Control: −2% (−20%–3%), p = 0.006. The overall BMI was reduced by −0.68 kg/m2 (−4.61–2.09) kg/m2p < 0.0001 at post-intervention and by −0.60 kg/m2 (−6.91–3.39) kg/m2, p < 0.0009 at follow-up. Overall, median WC was reduced (p < 0.0001); post-intervention −3.81 cm (−33.00–3.30)cm and follow-up −4.45(−38.10–4.57)cm. There were group differences in HbA1c (p = 0.019) and serum ω6/ω3 (p = 0.029) at post-intervention.
Conclusion
Online intervention with personal counseling was feasible in this population. Improvements in anthropometrics, MedDiet score, selected serum biomarkers and PTSD symptoms were found in both groups; group differences in HbA1c and serum ω6/ω3. A larger study with a delayed control is needed to better assess intervention effects.

Jan 11th 2024, 08:18

Abstract

Purpose
This paper examined risk for interpersonal violence (family or dating violence, sexual harassment, or sexual violence) perpetration using individual- and campus-level factors to understand how variations in campus culture and environment might shape risk of perpetration.

Method
We conducted a secondary data analysis of data collected from 23,389 students at 12 universities that participated in a bystander intervention program evaluation from 2016 to 2019. We used multilevel logistic regression to analyze individual- (e.g., gender, association with risky peers, binge drinking) and campus-level factors (e.g., campus diversity, perceived institutional intolerance for sexual misconduct). The primary outcome was interpersonal violence perpetration.

Results
Individual- and campus-level variables were associated with perpetration. Perpetration risk factors included being younger, a cisgender man, in a relationship, associating with risky peers, and having drinking problems. At the campus-level, increased ethnic diversity, higher perceptions of institutional intolerance for sexual misconduct, and being on a campus in which students reported more awareness of or exposure to sexual violence programming was associated with reduced perpetration risk.

Conclusions
These findings highlight how campus-level factors contribute to risk of interpersonal violence perpetration. We recommend campuses develop prevention programs that target campus-level structures, attitudes, and norms that may encourage interpersonal violence perpetration.

Jan 11th 2024, 08:17

Abstract
The gender movement comprising feminist and queer group movements addressed various issues of prejudices in the legal domain. This article discusses the question of power in the context of neuroscience, gender, and law. It elaborates on how the stereotypical view corresponding to the mythology and parasitic view prevalent in history was made as fact through discourse construction and scientific appropriations. Thus, identifying the simplistic psychology of one’s agency, societal framing of the methods of socialization, and institutionalizing the common sense of inferiority about one’s identity including the process of internalization along with the biological inferiority has maintained the gap in gender equality. The article further elaborates how gender and self-image have taken a turn with the voices of social change and critical engagement with the reified gender categories.

Jan 11th 2024, 08:17

Abstract

Background
Foster care homes provide safe and supportive environments for children and young people who are unable to live with their families. Yet, the perspectives of children and young people currently living in foster care are under-researched.

Objective
More needs to be understood about the lives of children and young people currently living in foster care. The aim of this review was to systematically analyse the core thematic categories related to the lived experiences of those in foster care to provide a comprehensive update to inform and improve foster care processes.

Method
A systematic review of qualitative research was conducted to explore children and young people’s perspectives of everyday life in foster care.

Results
After searching three citation databases (PubMed, CINAHL and PsycINFO) and a citation index (Scopus), we identified and evaluated 20 studies. Adopting thematic analysis, four themes were identified: (a) Navigating biological and foster family, (b) Normal children in abnormal circumstances, (c) Searching for belonging and (d) Overcoming trauma.

Conclusions
The findings provide valuable insight into the complex realities of life in foster care. These perspectives of foster care can help inform future research, practice and policy. This includes more collaborative co-designed foster care processes. For a socially conscientious developmental approach to foster care, the voices of the children and young people need to be heard, valued and included.

Jan 11th 2024, 06:22

School Psychology International, Ahead of Print. Anxiety and depression are among the most common mental health concerns in youth, with rates of these internalizing problems continuing to rise. Universal school-based interventions have shown promising results in improving poor mental health outcomes; however, more research is needed across different cultural contexts. This study is part of an ongoing evaluation of A Lust for Life Schools Programme, a universal process-based cognitive behavioral therapy intervention for Irish primary school children. This study investigated the efficacy of the program through a cluster randomized controlled trial. Nine schools were randomly allocated to the intervention or control groups. Four hundred and seventy participants completed measures at three timepoints (baseline, post-intervention, and 6-week follow-up) assessing internalizing problems, anxiety, and depressive symptoms (primary outcomes) and avoidance, problem-solving, seeking social support, academic self-efficacy, social self-efficacy, and emotional self-efficacy (secondary outcomes). Although participants reported that they were mostly satisfied with the intervention, results revealed that the intervention did not have a significant effect on the outcome variables compared to the control group. Implications of the findings and recommendations for future research are discussed.

Jan 11th 2024, 06:19

Abstract
We study the matching of workers to firms in which workers choose an observable and contractable effort after the match. If there are complementarities between a worker’s ability and a firm’s technology, positive assortative matching (PAM) is the only matching in any equilibrium and is the unique efficient matching. We investigate the effect of a policy that changes the matching of firms to workers from any matching to PAM, such as implementing a centralized clearing house. We characterize two sets of sufficient conditions on the production and cost functions under which the total output and welfare both increase. Under the first set of conditions, the increase in total output is an upper bound for the efficiency gain. In contrast, under the second set of conditions, the increase in total output is a lower bound for the efficiency gain. We identify a third set of conditions under which the total output decreases while welfare increases.

Jan 11th 2024, 05:39

Abstract
The determinants of transitioning from lower secondary to upper secondary school for Italian and immigrant teenagers (age range: 16–19) were identified by combining data from the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) and the Italian Survey on Income and Living Conditions of Families with Immigrants in Italy (IM-SILC) for 2009. A set of individual, family, and contextual characteristics was selected through the Lasso method and a Bayesian approach to explain the decision not to continue on with upper secondary schooling (yes/no). The interruption of this transition revealed a complex pattern. The variables affecting it positively were squared age and almost all the significant first-order interactions, while negative impacts were observed for father’s age, parents’ education level, the amount of optional technological equipment owned, and the occupations of both parents. Other variables entered through the interactions included the individual’s and parents’ self-perceived health conditions, the degree of urbanisation, the type of macro-region, and so on. There were no gender distinctions and differences between Italians and immigrants disappeared when family background and parental characteristics were taken into account.

Jan 11th 2024, 05:19

Abstract
John Broome (Proc Aristot Soc 91:87–101, 1990) has developed an influential theory of fairness, which has generated a thriving debate about the nature of fairness. In its initial conception, Broomean fairness is limited to a comparative notion. More recent commentators such as Hooker (Ethical Theory Moral Pract 8:329–52, 2005), Saunders (Res Publica 16:41–55, 2010), Lazenby (Utilitas 26:331–345, 2014), Curtis (Analysis 74:47–57, 2014) have advocated, for different reasons, to also take into account non-comparative fairness. Curtis’ (Analysis 74:47-57, 2014) theory does just that. He also claims that he furthers Broome’s theory by saying precisely what one must do in order to be fair. However, Curtis departs from Broome’s (Proc Aristot Soc 91:87-101, 1990) requirement that claims are satisfied in proportion to their strength. He neglects claim-strengths altogether and identifies claims with their amount. As a result, the theory of Curtis has limited scope. I present a theory of fairness that fulfils all three desiderata: it incorporates non-comparative fairness, it recognizes that claims have both amounts and strengths, and it tells us precisely what one must do in order to be fair.
