<p> <span class="a-plus-plus abstract-section id-a-sec1"></span></p>
<h3 class="a-plus-plus">Background</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">Structural racism is associated with alcohol and tobacco use among Black Americans. There is a need to understand how this relationship differs within varying groups of Black Americans. This study assessed the moderating roles of age, gender, and income in the association between structural racism and binge alcohol consumption and tobacco smoking status among Black Americans.</p>
<p> <br>
<span class="a-plus-plus abstract-section id-a-sec2"></span></p>
<h3 class="a-plus-plus">Methods</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">A state-level index of structural racism was merged with data from a national probability sample of 1946 Black Americans. Hierarchical linear and logistic regression models tested associations between structural racism (measured by residential segregation, and economic, incarceration, and educational inequities) and binge alcohol use and smoking status among Black Americans by stratified by age, gender, and income. Moderating effects of age, gender, and income were tested using slope estimate comparisons.</p>
<p> <br>
<span class="a-plus-plus abstract-section id-a-sec3"></span></p>
<h3 class="a-plus-plus">Results</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">Results indicated statistically significant positive associations between incarceration disparities and binge drinking and smoking status among Black Americans below age 65. An inverse association was detected between education disparities and smoking status among Black Americans below age 65 and among higher-income Black Americans. Age, gender, and income were not significant moderators of these associations.</p>
<p> <br>
<span class="a-plus-plus abstract-section id-a-sec4"></span></p>
<h3 class="a-plus-plus">Conclusions</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">Age, gender, and income do not moderate the association between state-level structural racism and binge alcohol or tobacco use behaviors among the current sample of Black Americans.</p>
<p> <br>
<span class="a-plus-plus abstract-section id-a-sec5"></span></p>
<h3 class="a-plus-plus">Impact</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">Addressing structural racism may have implications for reducing participation in binge drinking and tobacco use behaviors among Black Americans, regardless of their age, gender, or income. This has implications for healthy equity and cancer prevention and control.</p>

<h3 class="a-plus-plus">Background</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">Since obesity has emerged as a major public health concern, there is an urgent need to better understand factors related to weight gain and treatment success.</p>
<p> <br>
<span class="a-plus-plus abstract-section id-a-sec2"></span></p>
<h3 class="a-plus-plus">Methods</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">This study included 118 persons with obesity who participated in a multidisciplinary combined lifestyle intervention with cognitive-behavioral therapy at the outpatient clinic of the Obesity Center CGG at Erasmus University Medical Center, Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Neighborhood characteristics were assessed using a 13-item questionnaire. Multiple regression analyses were performed to examine the association between perceived safety, social cohesion, and the availability of facilities on relative changes in body mass index and waist circumference changes, adjusted for corresponding neighborhood socioeconomic status scores.</p>
<p> <br>
<span class="a-plus-plus abstract-section id-a-sec3"></span></p>
<h3 class="a-plus-plus">Results</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">Higher total scores, indicating more unfavorable neighborhood perceptions, were associated with less relative improvements in BMI and waist circumference after 1.5 years (<em class="a-plus-plus">β</em> = 3.2, 95%CI 0.3–6.0; <em class="a-plus-plus">β</em> = 3.4, 95%CI 0.3–6.6, respectively). Also, more neighborhood unsafety was associated with less relative improvements in BMI and waist circumference on the long term (<em class="a-plus-plus">β</em> = 3.1, 95%CI 1.1–5.1; <em class="a-plus-plus">β</em> = 2.8, 95%CI 0.6–5.1, respectively).</p>
<p> <br>
<span class="a-plus-plus abstract-section id-a-sec4"></span></p>
<h3 class="a-plus-plus">Conclusion</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">The results indicate that living in a neighborhood perceived as less favorable may lower the chances of successful weight loss in response to combined lifestyle interventions in persons with obesity.</p>

<p><h3 class="a-plus-plus">Abstract</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">Undergraduate research, recognized as one of the High-Impact Practices (HIPs), has demonstrated a positive association with diverse student learning outcomes. Understanding the pivotal quality factors essential for its efficacy is important for enhancing student success. This study evaluates the psychometric properties of survey items employed to gauge the quality of undergraduate research, including alignment with Kuh and O’Donnell’s (2013) eight HIP characteristics, alongside assessments of reliability, validity, and generalizability across demographic groups. The study assesses the validity and reliability of these measures at both the scale and item levels using data from the National Survey of Student Engagement’s (NSSE) HIP Quality Topical Module. The methodological approaches employed include Exploratory Factor Analysis, Parallel Analysis, Item Response Theory, and Differential Item Functioning (DIF). Our findings uncover a misalignment between NSSE’s HIP Quality module items and HIP characteristics, leading to the identification of seven subscales instead of eight. Nevertheless, four subscales—Reflective and Integrative Learning, Real-World Applications, Interactions with Others, and High-Performance Expectations—emerge as valid indicators of undergraduate research experiences. While specific items yield valuable insights at the item level, refinement is recommended for others. Despite the identification of two items exhibiting DIF, their negligible effect sizes suggest that major revisions are unwarranted solely on DIF grounds. This study offers recommendations for item refinement, including the incorporation of new items, wording updates, and tailored utilization of assessment tools within educational institutions. These recommendations are intended to empower educators and researchers to effectively capture the quality dimensions of students’ undergraduate research experiences, thereby fostering their academic success.</p>

<p><h3 class="a-plus-plus">Abstract</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">This article explores the concept of university success from the perspective of 95 Spanish graduates (62.1% women and 37.9% men) with different types of disabilities, identifying situations in which the participants felt that they were successful at university. The data of this qualitative study were gathered through a semi-structured interview and analyzed with an emerging and progressive system of categories and codes. According to the obtained results, university success is a dynamic and multidimensional concept that consists of different elements, and it is defined through eight components: graduating, attaining the set goal, learning process, social experience, personal growth, professional success, obtaining good marks, and recognition. These results must be considered by universities to promote success among students with disabilities, by fostering their participation in the university experiences and offering them opportunities to attain their academic and professional goals. Future research on university success must delve further into the concept of university success from a holistic perspective that contemplates all these elements.</p>

<p><h3 class="a-plus-plus">Abstract</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">Educational and playful forms of media are both pervasive in children’s media landscape. Children tend to see play and learning as distinct, whereas parents tend to recognize the overlap between these categories; however, little research investigates children’s and parents’ conceptions of media as learning or play. Children (<em class="a-plus-plus">N</em> = 80, five- and seven-year-olds) and mothers (<em class="a-plus-plus">N</em> = 40) were shown black-and-white line drawings representing a child engaging in both media and non-media activities and asked to categorize each image as learning/not learning and as play/not play. Both mothers and children were less likely to see media as learning than non-media activities. However, children were less likely than mothers to differentiate between media and non-media activities in their conceptions of play. Both mothers and children were less likely to conceive of media activities than non-media activities as both learning and play, but this effect was stronger for mothers. These results suggest that mothers may see media more negatively and/or instrumentally, whereas children may see media as one of many options for playtime, indicating that parents should be encouraged to see media in a playful light, alongside other non-digital options for childhood play.</p>

<p><h3 class="a-plus-plus">Abstract</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">Caregiver education and home stimulation have shown positive associations with children’s developmental outcomes in early childhood in high-income “Minority World” countries, and these processes also predict children’s long-term health and well-being. However, relatively little is known about these processes in low- and middle-income “Majority World” countries, where an estimated 250 million children under the age of five are at risk of not reaching their developmental potential. This paper attempts to address these gaps in knowledge by exploring the relations between caregiver education, household stimulation, and early childhood development in a sample of infants and toddlers aged birth to three using data on 9,099 caregiver-child dyads from eight under-represented Majority World sites: Brazil, Guatemala, India, Jordan, Lebanon, Pakistan, the Philippines, and Zambia. It also explored the differences in these developmental processes between children’s sex and geographical regions. Results showed that home stimulation partially mediated the associations between caregiver education and children’s developmental outcomes across eight sites. These developmental processes differed by geographical regions and by children’s sex. In sum, these findings contribute to the field’s understanding of the universality and specificity of child development across settings and child characteristics. They also suggest the importance of supporting caregiver education and home stimulation activities as means of promoting children’s developmental outcomes, as well as the need to promote gender equity in the Majority World to ensure equal access to learning opportunities, especially opportunities in the home.</p>

<p><h3 class="a-plus-plus">Abstract</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">School climate surveys are frequently used to collect information about student experiences in school. Less is known about how educators use survey data after survey administration. This paper explores one school district’s critical use of evidence to promote equitable change. We conducted eight semi-structured interviews with district and school leaders to investigate their uses of evidence. Through our qualitative, reflexive thematic analysis, we generated six themes: (1) using evidence to provide a common language; (2) bringing attention to trends to shift staff understanding of problems, (3) making structural changes, (4) planning for professional learning, (5) following up directly with students, and (6) engaging with the community. Findings illustrate how education leaders can apply a critical lens to their generation and use of evidence. We explore how the strategic use of evidence is needed to advance the broader goal of fostering school change and improving school climate for all students.</p>

<p><h3 class="a-plus-plus">Abstract</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">An estimated 7.7 million Venezuelans have fled a severe humanitarian crisis in their country, most (70%) to other middle-income host countries in the same Andean region. Migration-related exposures during periconception and other critical gestational periods can adversely impact maternal-perinatal outcomes. Emerging evidence suggests that Venezuelan refugee and migrant women (VRMW) who migrate to Andean host countries are at-risk for delivering preterm and low birthweight infants and for Cesarean-sections. However, relatively few studies have examined obstetrical complications that could contribute to these or other short- and longer-term health outcomes of VRMW and/or their offspring. Our exploratory study analyzed four recent years of national hospital discharge data (2018–2021) from Ecuador to compare the primary discharge diagnoses of VRMW (<em class="a-plus-plus">n</em> = 29,005) and Ecuadorian nationals (<em class="a-plus-plus">n</em> = 1,136,796) for ICD-10 O code obstetrical complications related to or aggravated by pregnancy, childbirth, or the puerperium. Our findings indicated that VRMW were hospitalized for 0.5 days longer than Ecuadorian reference group women and they had higher adjusted odds (aOR) for a primary discharge diagnosis for obstetrical complications including preeclampsia (aOR:1.62, 95% CI:1.55,1.69), preterm labor (aOR:1.20, 95% CI:1.11,1.31), premature rupture of membranes (aOR: 1.72, 95% CI:1.63,1.83), oligohydraminos (aOR:1.24, 95% CI:1.12,1.36), obstructed labor (aOR: 1.39, 95% CI:1.31,1.47), perineal lacerations/other obstetric trauma (aOR:1.76, 95% CI:1.63, 1.91), STIs (aOR:2.59, 95% CI:1.29,2.92), anemia (aOR:1.33, 95% CI:1.24,1.42), and ectopic pregnancy (aOR:1.16 95% CI:1.04,1.28). They had similar aOR for diagnosed gestational diabetes and spontaneous abortion (SAB) compared to the reference group but a reduced aOR for genitourinary infections (aOR:0.79, 95% CI:0.74,0.84) and early pregnancy hemorrhage not ending in SAB (aOR:0.43, 95% CI:0.36,0.51). Our findings underscore the vulnerability of VRMW for a number of potentially serious obstetrical complications with the potential to adversely impact the short- and longer-term health of mothers and their offspring. Future studies should collect more detailed information on the migration status, experiences, and exposures of MRMW that influence their risk for obstetrical complications. These are needed to expand our findings to better understand why they have excess risk for these and to inform social and public health policies, programs and targeted interventions aimed at reducing the risk of this vulnerable refugee and migrant group.</p>

<p><p><imgsrc border="0" align="left" alt="image">The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of knowledge and beliefs on beneficial behaviors and dementia risk scores. A online survey was conducted among Chinese community residents over 18 years old. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify the impact of knowledge and beliefs on dementia risk scores and beneficial behaviors. The respondents were 760 adults (mean age = 47.6 years, 60.8% female). Knowledge and beliefs were associated with cognitive activities (knowledge, odds ratio [OR] = 1.04; beliefs, OR = 1.17) and dementia risk scores (knowledge, OR = 0.95; beliefs, OR = 0.82). Additionally, lower perceived susceptibility (OR = 1.68; 95% CI, 1.04 to 2.72) and higher perceived benefits (OR = 0.68; 95% CI, 0.57 to 0.80) were associated with lower dementia risk scores. Knowledge and beliefs can promote beneficial behaviors and reduce dementia risk. In particular, perceptions of dementia susceptibility and benefits should be enhanced, which will greatly reduce dementia risk in the general public.</imgsrc></p>

<p>Adolescent youth occupy a critical and complex position in refugee families who resettle in a third country.</p>
<p>Objectives: </p>
<p>We examined the potential impact of health- and family-related factors on the social and behavioral adjustment outcomes of refugee adolescent youth.</p>
<p>Methods: </p>
<p>Situated within an explanatory sequential mixed methods study, we used unadjusted and adjusted multinomial logistic regression to identify trauma, health, and socioecological characteristics of war-affected families associated with social and behavioral adjustment in 72 Karen adolescent youth resettled in the United States.</p>
<p>Results: </p>
<p>Factors related to the health and well-being of war-affected families, including parent mental and physical health, youth-reported family function, housing, and parent employment demonstrated important associations with youth adjustment.</p>
<p>Conclusion: </p>
<p>These findings, originating within the complex dynamics of resettled war-affected families, demonstrated the interconnectedness of adolescent and parent experiences and opportunities to advance resilience in youth navigating integration and supporting their families through those same processes.</p>

<p>Over 35 000 youth experience homelessness on any given night in the United States (US). Unhoused youth experience unique physical and mental health challenges and face barriers in every social determinant of health (SDoH), which may be amplified in the LGBTQ+ population.</p>
<p>Objective: </p>
<p>The objective of this study was to define characteristics of the unhoused youth population and their utilization of healthcare to inform programs to meet their needs.</p>
<p>Methods: </p>
<p>Secondary analysis of data from the College of Charleston’s YOUth Count survey was conducted, focusing on health-related characteristics, challenges, healthcare utilization, and SDoH of youth aged 18 to 25 experiencing homelessness in Charleston, SC.</p>
<p>Results: </p>
<p>Almost three-quarters of respondents (74.6%) reported mental health challenges and 35% reported physical health challenges. A significantly higher proportion of those who engaged in survival sex were LGBTQ+ . More than half (68.4%) visited the emergency department (ED) and 29.3% were admitted to the hospital in the past 12 months. Housing status, safety, food insecurity, sexual orientation, prior foster care, and survival sex were all significantly associated with ED utilization. Housing status and survival sex were significantly associated with hospital admission.</p>
<p>Conclusions: </p>
<p>Addressing SDoH is essential to improving health outcomes and healthcare utilization among unhoused youth, particularly in the LGBTQ+ population.</p>

<p>Establishing healthy behaviors during a child’s first 5 years is essential for healthy growth. Parents are targeted as agents of change because they serve as primary models of behavior during this period. Although parent-focused interventions often target empowerment as a driver of change, our understanding of how parents experience the process of empowerment in the context of child health promotion remains limited.</p>
<p>Objective: </p>
<p>This qualitative study explored the process by which parents gain empowerment through participation in a health promotion intervention.</p>
<p>Methods: </p>
<p>Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 37 low-income parents who participated in Parents Connect for Healthy Living (PConnect), a 10-week empowerment-centered obesity prevention intervention. Data were analyzed using inductive-deductive thematic analysis and guided by empowerment theories.</p>
<p>Results: </p>
<p>Most parents were Hispanic/Latino (41%) and female (97%). Five themes emerged that correspond to the process by which parents gained empowerment: (1) friendships formed and relationships strengthened during PConnect, (2) parents strengthened relationships with their children and believed in their ability to parent successfully, (3) the experience of knowledge led to behavior change, (4) parents used new resources to improve family health, and (5) parents took action.</p>
<p>Conclusion: </p>
<p>Empowerment theory should be a component of health promotion programs.</p>

<p><p><imgsrc border="0" align="left" alt="image">Pathologic narcissism (PN) and narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) are 2 common and stigmatized clinical constructs that are known to have large consequences for patients’ functioning and mental health-related outcomes. To date, no treatment for these conditions has been empirically validated, but there is a relative consensus about the importance of psychoeducation. Here we present a model for a psychoeducational intervention for patients with PN or NPD. We start with a review of the current evidence on the role of psychoeducation in different treatment models for PN, and we discuss several aspects regarding the content and format of this type of intervention. Based on this review, we outline a 6-week Good Psychiatric Management-based psychoeducation group program that we developed. We also describe how such a psychoeducational intervention can be implemented individually, with fewer resources, in general care settings. Finally, we discuss the strengths and limitations of our approach and elaborate on the rationale for our proposal. We believe that this program proposal is a first step in the development of psychoeducational programs for PN and NPD that can be further corrected and enhanced.</imgsrc></p>
