<p>Declining health or accidents often prompt older adults and their families to recognize and plan for aging, gerontologists and social workers say, but these discussions should not wait until people are elderly. The conversation should start early and continue throughout a person’s life, said Andrew Scharlach (above), emeritus Kleiner Professor of Aging at the School of Social Welfare at the University of California, Berkeley. </p>

<p>Chronic Illness, Ahead of Print. <br>ObjectivesThe aim of the present study is to evaluate the impact of Covid-19 on utilization of chronic diseases services.MethodsInterrupted time-series design was used to examine the utilization of chronic diseases services before and during the Covid-19 pandemic among hospitals in Iran. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, type 2 diabetes, heart failure, and chemotherapy were selected as a proxy to indicate the impact of Covid-19 on utilization of chronic diseases services. Data were collected in 24 sites from 12 months before the onset of Covid-19 (from March 2019 to February 2020) to 12 months during the Covid-19 pandemic (February 2020 to March 2021).ResultsA total of 7,039,378 services were provided, of which 51.92% were provided for women and 62.73% for >65 age group. A sudden decrease was observed in monthly utilization of services during the Covid-19 pandemic; ranging from 13.91 (95% CI = −21.73, 6.10, P = 0.001) for chemotherapy to 606.39 (95% CI = −1040.72, 172.06, P = 0.009) for heart failure services per 100 thousand population. A decrease was observed in COPD services; 15.28 services compared with the period before Covid-19. Subsequently, the monthly utilization trends of asthma, type 2 diabetes, and chemotherapy services increased significantly (P < 0.05).DiscussionAlthough chronic diseases are a factor in more severe form of Covid-19, their failure to seek diagnostic, prevention and treatment services has somewhat complicated the issue.</p>

<p>Journal of Threat Assessment and Management, Vol 10(2), Jun 2023, 80-98; doi:10.1037/tam0000188</p>
<p>Threat assessment has roots in clinical and forensic psychology, including the subfield of risk assessment. The robust body of research regarding culture and social justice in clinical psychology stands in stark comparison to that of forensic psychology, with little to none in threat assessment and management. One possible theory regarding this discrepancy is threat assessors’ reliance on objectivity, avoiding demographic and cultural factors that inform the analysis of risk. Yet, the constructs of implicit bias and colorblindness assert that avoiding culture may paradoxically increase the likelihood of bias. In this article, the authors provide a review of relevant literature regarding cultural considerations in general and forensic psychology focusing on risk and threat assessment. Pertinent case law is introduced to buttress the practices outlined in this article. The authors then assert that adopting the culturally competent pillar of self-awareness is a potent first step in mitigating the risk of racial bias in the practice of threat assessment. To establish the self-awareness pillar, an explanation and stepwise guide to determine social location are provided, as well as training recommendations for the field of threat assessment and management.

<p>Journal of Latinx Psychology, Vol 11(3), Aug 2023, 175-188; doi:10.1037/lat0000226</p>
<p>Despite extensive evidence showing that Latinx caregivers’ language preference and level of acculturation influence parenting practices and treatment acceptability, there is a paucity of studies examining how these individuals acquire skills taught in behavioral parenting interventions such as parent–child interaction therapy (PCIT). Previous studies have shown that Latinx families, especially those who speak Spanish, require additional sessions to complete PCIT compared with non-Latinx White families, a disparity that could lead to high attrition rates and poor treatment outcomes. This study examined whether parenting skills (i.e., do and don’t skills) changed as a function of caregiver language preference and level of acculturation among Latinx families receiving a home-based adaptation of PCIT for infants. Twenty-six Latinx caregiver–child dyads received the intervention and were assessed at posttreatment and at 3- and 6-month follow-ups. Caregivers were on average 30.85 years old (<em>SD</em> = 5.14), mostly married (69.2%) and Spanish-speaking (57.7%). Half of these families lived below the poverty line. Moderation analyses showed that more acculturated Spanish-speaking caregivers showed fewer reductions in their use of don’t skills than their English-speaking counterparts at posttreatment and at 3- and 6-month follow-ups. No moderation effects were found for the use of do skills. Results highlight critical cultural factors that affect parenting skill change among Spanish-speaking Latinx families. These findings could inform data-driven cultural adaptations of PCIT that improve treatment engagement and reduce attrition among Latinx families, especially given existing inequities in mental health care for this population.

<p>Probation Journal, Ahead of Print. <br>In this article, we present some initial findings from the first year of a longitudinal study of the experiences of unification by staff in one Probation Service region. Their reaction to unification is explored as well as their hopes and fears regarding the newly unified service. Despite working in what was often presented as an unsettled and fractured environment marked by on-going staff shortages – whilst at the same time having to respond to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic – amongst most participants there remained a high level of loyalty to the probation profession (or the idea of probation). However, while many expressed optimism regarding the longer-term prospects for the unified organisation, this was also overlaid with concerns about how unification would play out in the short to medium term. Their enduring sense of commitment and loyalty to their role was also being tested by what some saw as overbearing pressure to manage risk, coupled with the fear of being exposed if people whom they supervised committed a Serious Further Offence.</p>

<h3 class="a-plus-plus">Abstract</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">Unmet mental health needs have a negative impact and digital mental health interventions (DMHIs) offer a low-cost accessible way to receive care. Despite potential benefits, engagement with these strategies outside of research settings remains limited. Investigating the perspectives of persons with unmet mental health needs may offer insight into addressing this gap in care, particularly following changes of the COVID-19 pandemic. The current study investigated experiences with DMHIs, attitudes towards these strategies, and their impact on intentions to use such approaches among 296 individuals with unmet mental health needs. Only a small proportion of participants were using DMHIs (11.1%), although a larger part of the sample had done so in the past (37.5%). Participants endorsed greater comfort with DMHI functionalities they have more control over, such as tracking symptoms and habits and less comfort with those that were more intrusive, such as monitoring location or social media use. Higher educational attainment (<em class="a-plus-plus">β</em> = 0.14, <em class="a-plus-plus">p</em> = 0.01), greater perceived behavioral control (<em class="a-plus-plus">β</em> = 0.18, <em class="a-plus-plus">p</em> = 0.002), and more positive attitudes towards DMHIs (<em class="a-plus-plus">β</em> = 0.39, <em class="a-plus-plus">p</em> < 0.001) were predictive of intentions to use these tools. Intentions to use DMHIs were higher among those who had past or present engagement (<em class="a-plus-plus">d</em> = 0.55, <em class="a-plus-plus">p</em> < 0.001) supporting a link between attitude and behavior. Implications of findings and considerations for future research are discussed.</p>

<p>The tally so far: By the summer of 2023, governors of eight states had signed into law curriculum-content restrictions aimed at higher education. Governors in five states had signed into law restrictions on diversity, equity, and inclusion, and legislatures in 12 states were considering similar bills restricting curriculum or DEI or both. In 11 states, bills restricting course content or banning DEI had died in committee or had been vetoed by Democratic governors. Legislators and governors in 15 states — most of them with large Democratic majorities — had shown no interest in pursuing either course content or DEI restrictions through legislation.</p>

<h2>Abstract</h2>
<p>Higher education institutions in England, Scotland and Wales have an obligation under the 2015 Counter Terrorism and Security Act to protect students from being drawn into terrorism. This legislation has proved controversial, with concerns about the securitisation of education, as well as fears of over-reporting which could stigmatise individuals or communities. Despite the significance of the Act to the education sector and concerns about the implications of compelling educators to report radicalisation concerns, there is limited empirical research exploring how teachers and academics have engaged with the policy. The evidence for higher education settings is particularly limited. This study employed a survey experiment with 1003 academics working in British universities to examine willingness and ability to recognise and respond to student radicalisation. Our data provides no evidence for over-reporting. Rather, it suggests that academics teaching in British universities are uncertain about radicalisation risk and ambivalent about reporting concerns. Reporting ambivalence is driven by a lack of confidence about appropriate reporting thresholds, concerns about negative consequences of reporting and free speech values. Previous experience of dealing with a student of concern and Prevent training are associated with increased commitment to reporting concerns. The results suggest that Prevent training could be enhanced by targeting more experienced academics and tackling concerns about the tensions between the Prevent duty and freedom of speech policies and values. However, for this training to be effective it is essential that it is credible for an audience that is used to engaging with deep thinking on challenging issues.</p>

<p>Objective: Alcohol and other drug (AOD) use increases substantially from adolescence to emerging adulthood, and recent longitudinal studies show disparities in AOD-related outcomes by racial and ethnic, as well as sexual and gender minority (SGM), identities. Greater insight is needed into how individual, social, and environmental contexts interact and affect such disparities, as well as why disparate outcomes are found across different domains (e.g., social, educational, economic), even after accounting for intensity of use. This commentary addresses these important and timely issues. Method: We provide a brief overview of the literature, including our own team’s work over the last 14 years, to identify and understand disparities in AOD-related outcomes during adolescence and emerging adulthood across individuals with different racial and ethnic, and sexual and gender, identities. We then discuss paths forward to advance research and build a stronger evidence base, leading to the development and identification of effective interventions that can help mitigate disparities among historically marginalized adolescents and emerging adults. Results: Existing research highlights the need for further longitudinal work in several areas, including addressing contextual factors at various levels (e.g., individual, social, environmental) that may contribute to outcomes for different groups of individuals, developing and testing culturally appropriate AOD-related services, giving greater consideration to intersectionality of multiple minority identities, and using novel statistical approaches to help improve the estimation of differences across smaller subgroups of individuals in existing cohorts. Conclusions: To inform prevention programming and policy for improving health and well-being of historically marginalized populations, it is important to continue our efforts to understand disparities in AOD-related outcomes using multidisciplinary, equity, and intersectionality lenses.

<p>Journal of Latinx Psychology, Vol 11(3), Aug 2023, 203-219; doi:10.1037/lat0000227</p>
<p>According to the National Center for Educational Statistics (n.d.), 3.6 million Latinx students enrolled in college for the Fall 2019 semester. Latinx students are the second largest racial/ethnic group to enroll in higher education and yet this population has the lowest rates of degree attainment compared to other non-Latinx college students. To better understand Latinx students’ experiences within a positive psychology and culturally relevant lens, this study examined the relationship between gratitude, social connectedness, and subjective happiness among 261 bilingual Latinx college students in the United States. We utilized structural equation modeling analysis and found that gratitude was significantly and positively correlated with subjective happiness. Both subscales of the Social Connectedness in Mainstream Society and the Ethnic Community Scales have indirect effects between gratitude and subjective happiness. Results also showed that there is no significant difference between these two indirect effects. It may be important to provide psychoeducation to Latinx college students about the benefits of gratitude (e.g., how it is related to social connectedness and subjective happiness) while fostering connections between Latinx students/communities and mainstream culture to build networks. Strengths, limitations, and other practical implications are further discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved)</p>

<p>Chronic Illness, Ahead of Print. <br>ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of blood pressure (BP) self-monitoring and peer mentoring to improve the control of hypertension in clinical practice in primary care centers (PCCs) located in low-resource settings in Argentina.MethodsAn individual randomized controlled trial was carried out to test two different approaches based on behavioral interventions in PCCs in Argentina. Hypertensive adults were randomly assigned to one of three arms: BP self-monitoring, peer mentoring, and usual care. The primary outcome was the change in BP values from baseline to the end of follow-up at 3 months. A qualitative approach of participants’ experiences of the peer mentoring arm was also conducted.ResultsA total of 442 participants with hypertension were included in the study. Self-monitoring and peer mentoring interventions did not show a significant difference in BP control compared to usual care. However, this trial showed an improvement regarding antihypertensive medication adherence among those assigned to the peer mentoring intervention compared to the control at the end of follow-up (p = 0.031).DiscussionSelf-monitoring and peer mentoring interventions did not demonstrate to be effective in BP control compared to usual care. Implementing a peer support strategy was demonstrated to be feasible and effective in improving medication adherence in this population.</p>

<h2>Abstract</h2>
<h2>Objectives</h2>
<p>Despite the importance of psychosocial functioning impairment in Bipolar Disorder (BD), its role among Older Adults with BD (OABD) is not well known. The development of guidelines for the assessment of psychosocial functioning helps to facilitate a better understanding of OABD and can lead to better tailored interventions to improve the clinical outcomes of this population.</p>
<h2>Methods</h2>
<p>Through a series of virtual meetings, experts from eight countries in the International Society of Bipolar Disorder (ISBD) on OABD task force developed recommendations for the assessment of psychosocial functioning.</p>
<h2>Results</h2>
<p>We present (1) a conceptualization of functioning in OABD and differences compared with younger patients; (2) factors related to functioning in OABD; (3) current measures of functioning in OABD and their strengths and limitations; and, (4) other potential sources of information to assess functioning.</p>
<h2>Conclusions</h2>
<p>The task force created recommendations for assessing functioning in OABD. Current instruments are limited, so measures specifically designed for OABD, such as the validated FAST-O scale, should be more widely adopted. Following the proposed recommendations for assessment can improve research and clinical care in OABD and potentially lead to better treatment outcomes.</p>

<div class="boxTitle">OBJECTIVES</div>
<p>To assess the implementation and effectiveness of the augmented WE CARE social care system on low-income children’s health care utilization and child maltreatment outcomes.</p>
<div class="boxTitle">METHODS</div>
<p>We conducted a type 1 hybrid effectiveness-implementation cluster randomized controlled trial at 6 community health centers. Full-term infants were followed from birth to age 3. The 3 experimental clinics implemented the augmented WE CARE system at well-child visits, consisting of a self-report screening instrument for 7 basic needs; an electronic health record-generated resource information referral system; and access to a peer patient navigator. Families at control community health centers received usual care; 1 control site was contaminated and removed from primary analysis. We analyzed results using generalized mixed-effects models.</p>
<div class="boxTitle">RESULTS</div>
<p>Overall, 878 children were followed until age 3. Implementation of WE CARE was poor with only 28.9% of visits having a WE CARE screener documented. WE CARE families received significantly more resource referrals than control families (43.1% vs 1.9%, adjusted odds ratio 4.6; 95% confidence interval, 2.0–5.6); 20% were referred to the patient navigator. WE CARE children had significantly higher immunization adherence ratios. Although there were no statistically significant differences with well-child visits, WE CARE children had higher rates of emergency department visits than control children. By age 3, WE CARE children had significantly higher hospitalization rates (14.1% vs 10.4%, adjusted odds ratio 1.3, 95% confidence interval: 1.03–1.7). There were no statistically significant differences with maltreatment outcomes.</p>
<div class="boxTitle">CONCLUSIONS</div>
<p>We found poor implementation and mixed benefits for the augmented WE CARE system on immunization, health care utilization, and maltreatment outcomes in early childhood.</p>

<p>The Prison Journal, Ahead of Print. <br>Telemedicine is increasingly being considered as a viable solution to advance healthcare organization, widening accessibility and increasing the quality of service delivery. However, implementing telemedicine in prison settings is not unproblematic as it gives rise to a range of ethical issues. In light of this, this article seeks to provide an ethical perspective for prison telemedicine, offered as a point of departure for stimulating a better integration of telemedicine in correctional systems. This entails examining this innovation as part of a wider strategy aimed at fully addressing the medical needs of prison populations.</p>

<p>In recent years, there has been renewed interest in the true degree of academic freedom around the world despite international declarations, and constitutional and legal protection. This study aims to support the European Parliament’s STOA Panel in developing a procedure to monitor developments in academic freedom in the EU Member States. The study provides an overview of the interpretation of academic freedom in different international declarations, and offers a critical assessment of existing evaluation and monitoring methods and procedures.</p>

<p>Every day, our inboxes are full of patient messages asking for medication refills or input on symptoms, side effects, a dose change, or any other clinical question. All messages need to be answered promptly, but that’s impossible. In 2011-2014, clinicians spent as much or more time answering patient messages as they did on face-to-face care — something that’s almost certainly gotten worse.</p>
