Filter by:Background: As major decision-maker for children's wellbeing, parents play a vital role in decisiding on a wide range of health-related issues including vaccination. Such decision-making process will be complicated by a great amount of psychosocial stressors emerging from the current pandemic. Stress can lead to various decision-making biases for children vaccination and subsequently lead to low vaccination intention amongst parents, which may hinder the progress for reaching herd immunity and end the COVID-19 pandemic. Effective risk communication intervention thus is in urgent need to address stress-induced decision-making biases for an upcoming COVID-19 vaccine for young children. Aims: This study will investigate the interrelationships among parental perceived stress, and interpretive bias toward negative vaccine-related stimuli and and vaccination intention. In addition, this study will also conduct a survey experiment to develop positive affect-based messages and test its effect on correcting stress-induced biases in vaccination decision making among parents with high mental stress level. Design and subjects: We aim to recruit parents aged 18 years or above with at least one child in our study. Participants will be recruited from our previous study through WhatsApp. Participants will be invited to read a list of vaccine-related news headlines with a mixture of positive and negative sentiments first. Then they will be asked to complete a series of assessment on their vaccination decision-making and intention. In the next phase, a survey-based experiment will be embedded in the online questionnaire to test the effect of risk communication interventions. Intervention messages will be designed based on previous qualitative study and literatures on positive psychology to simulate parents' positive mental images of COVID-19 vaccination consequences by using positive-affect visual stimuli. Main outcome measures and analysis: Participants will be invited to complete a series of assessments through online questionnaire to assess their mental stress level, negative interpretive bias on processing ambiguous vaccine information and behavioural intention for vaccinating children. Paired t-test will be used to determine negative interpretive bias between high-stress vs. low-stress parents. Structural equation modelling (SEM) will be performed to test the relationships among parental mental stress level, affect-driven decision-making constructs and vaccination intention for children. For the survey-based experiment, the effect of positive-affect messages intervention on tendency of correcting decision-making biases and COVID-19 vaccine uptake for children will be evaluated using logistic regression model with perceived stress level and intervention as the main between-group factors.
Millions of U.S. parents have experienced trauma, putting them at risk for maladaptive parenting practices, which then confer vulnerabilities to their children. This study aims to enhance understanding of how parental emotional dysregulation associated with traumatic stress impedes effective parenting. The study employs neurophysiological methods (electroencephalogram; EEG) to address some of the challenges inherent in the study of emotion (particularly in trauma-exposed individuals) and to identify potential biomarkers of traumatic stress and response to intervention.
Introduction: The interruption of education within the scope of quarantine and isolation methods during the pandemic process has caused nursing students studying in clinical practice areas to be away from the clinic for a long time. This situation not only affected the anxiety levels of nursing students, but also caused them to feel inadequate and to experience stress. Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of emotional freedom technique on nursing students' styles of coping with anxiety and stress. Method:In this experimentally designed study with pretest-posttest control group, freedom of emotion technique will be applied to the experimental group for 4 sessions. In the pre-implementation phase and after the emotional freedom technique session, the state anxiety scale, coping styles scale, and subjective discomfort level scale will be applied.
This pilot community-partnered cluster-randomized trial will examine the feasibility and acceptability of a social network-based youth violence prevention program called Strengthening Connections for Change for youth ages 13-17 and their key adult supports.
The purpose of the current protocol is to describe a cluster randomized feasibility trial examining the integration of a scalable stress management intervention into Entre Nosotras ('among/between us'), a community-based psychosocial intervention for migrant and host community women in Ecuador and Panamá. Specifically the study aims to: 1. Explore the relevance, acceptability, and feasibility of integrating a stress management intervention into community-based participatory women's group 2. Examine the feasibility of conducting a fully-powered cluster randomized controlled trial evaluating the effectiveness and implementation of integrating a stress management intervention into a community-based participatory women's group as compared to community-based participatory women's groups alone.
An announcement will be made on Whatsapp and Instagram social media accounts for the young people who will participate in the research, and preliminary evaluations will be taken from the young people who have stated that they want to participate via e-mail and who meet the working criteria, and randomization will be provided with a computer program. A 10-week coping skills training will be given to the training group from the randomly allocated groups. The control group will be informed about their coping skills for 1 week. Both groups will receive a final evaluation 10 weeks later and a follow-up evaluation 1 month after the last evaluation.
Using a prospective qualitative approach, explore whether pathologist intervention is feasible as part of multimodal multidisciplinary care model for transplant patients in effecting psychological dimensions such as experience, satisfaction, or patient's understanding of their disease. Additionally, to examine if this intervention improves medication adherence.
The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of a virtual, group mind-body resiliency intervention adapted to target fear of recurrence (FOR) among cancer survivors.
Affecting nearly 800,000 people in the US every year, stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability, and has serious consequences for stroke survivors and their carepartners. Our project uses a scientifically rigorous efficacy study to evaluate a remotely delivered 8-week dyadic (couples-based) positive psychology intervention to reduce emotional distress in stroke survivors and their carepartners. If successful, couples may be better emotionally equipped to cope with the sequelae of stroke, and have better rehabilitation outcomes and quality of life.
Introduction: Interpersonal Relational Role Analysis (IRRA) is a psychosocial group intervention that allows individuals to see the problems they experience in interpersonal relationships and interactions in the group environment and to be handled together with group members. Aim: The present study aims to investigate the effects of IRRA on nursing students' depressive symptoms and coping styles. Method: This study was conducted with randomized controlled, pre-test-post-test control group design and follow-up test patterns. Students with depressive symptoms were randomly assigned to control (n=10) or intervention groups (n=10). Intervention group students received 21 weeks of IRRA intervention. Results: It was determined that IRRA had a positive effect on nursing students' depressive symptoms and coping styles. Discussion: This study is the first to evaluate the effects of IRRA on depressive symptoms and coping styles. Our study provides evidence on the effectiveness of IRRA in reducing the depressive symptoms of nursing students and in managing stress. Implications for Practice: IRRA is a practical and useful intervention that mental health nurses can incorporate and use in their clinical practice while helping individuals to become aware of problems in relationships and roles that may impair their mental health.
