Substantively, this study investigates potential heterogeneity in the developmental trajectories of anxiety adolescence. Methodologically, demonstrates usefulness general growth mixture analysis (GGMA) addressing these issues and illustrates impact untested invariance assumptions on substantive interpretations. This relied data from Montreal Adolescent Depression Development Project (MADDP), a 4-year follow-up more than 1,000 adolescents who completed Beck Anxiety Inventory each year. GGMA...
This study investigates heterogeneity in adolescents' trajectories of global self‐esteem ( GSE ) and the relations between these facets interpersonal, organizational, instructional components students' school life. Methodologically, this illustrates use growth mixture analyses, how to obtain proper student‐level effects when there are multiple schools, but not enough support multilevel analyses. is based on a 4‐year, six‐measurement‐point, follow‐up 1,008 adolescents M age = 12.6 years, SD...
Traditionally, assessments of factor validity body image instruments have relied on exploratory or confirmatory analysis. However, the emergence structural equation modeling (ESEM), a resurgence interest in bifactor models, and ability to combine both models (bifactor-ESEM) is beginning shape future research. For these analytic approaches truly advance research, scholars will need deep understanding their use application. To facilitate such understanding, we describe ESEM bifactor-ESEM for...
Self-esteem and body image are central to coping successfully with the developmental challenges of adolescence. However, current knowledge surrounding self-esteem is fraught controversy. This study attempts clarify some them by addressing three questions: (1) Are intraindividual trajectories stable across adolescence? (2) What direction relations between over time? (3) role gender, ethnicity, pubertal development on those trajectories? relies Autoregressive Latent Trajectory analyses based...
ABSTRACT Aims This study aims to: (i) explore the relations between smoking initiation and different profiles of academic achievement trajectories in early to mid‐adolescence; (ii) investigate whether background characteristics (gender, ethnicity, grade repetition, parental education) proximal processes (parental practices, extra‐curricular involvement) predicted class membership initiation. Design Four‐year longitudinal cohort (7th–10th grade). Setting Adolescents completed questionnaires...
Telemental health is the use of information and communications technologies broadband networks to deliver mental services support wellness. Although numerous studies have demonstrated efficiency utility telemental health, certain barriers may impede its implementation, including attitudes service providers. The current study draws on technology acceptance model (TAM) understand role providers’ perceptions (psychotherapy delivered via videoconferencing) their intention this with patients. A...
Restrained, emotional and intuitive eating were examined in relation to each other as correlates of participants' weight status, body image self-esteem. In some past research, restrained have been associated with higher status poorer mental health, while is more frequently linked lower positive well-being. However, these styles rarely together never a large cross-country sample.Six-thousand two-hundred seventy-two (6272) emerging adults (M age = 21.54 years, SD 3.13) completed scales from...
We herein report an experimental study examining the potential positive effects of Virtual Reality (VR) feedback during indoor bicycling exercise. Using a regular bike coupled to VR system, we compared conditions no feedback, and with presence virtual coach, acting as pacer. In conditions, observed decreased level perceived exertion increased enjoyment physical activity, when exercise situation (no feedback). also shift in subjects' attentional focus, from association (in absence feedback)...
The objective was to assess the psychometric properties of a French-Canadian version third edition Test Gross Motor Development (TGMD-3). Participants were 127 French-speaking Canadian children. Results supported validity-reliability bifactor exploratory structural equation modeling representation TGMD-3. Additionally, results lack differential item functioning as function age, body mass index (BMI), physical activity/sport practice (PA/SP), and sex. Finally, latent mean differences showed...
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the possibility curvilinear patterns relationships between workplace affective commitment and in‐role performance, organizational citizenship behaviors burnout. As most theories assume strictly linear relations with these outcomes, demonstrating that positive associations do not hold above some ceiling point in continuum potentially important for research practice. Design/methodology/approach nonlinear was examined a sample 273 hospital...
This study examined the effects of a five-week intervention combining vigorous interval training (VIT) with diet among twenty-four obese adolescents. Fourteen girls and ten boys (aged 14-15) schooled in pediatric rehabilitation center participated.The VIT intensity was targeted remained above 80% maximal heart rate (HR) over six kilocalories per minute. Pre- postintervention measures were body composition (BMI, weight, fat percentage), physical self-perceptions (PSP), fitness (6-min walking...
