Given the high burden of child maltreatment, there is an urgent need to know more about resilient functioning among those who have experienced maltreatment. The aims study were to: 1) identify distinct profiles resilience across cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and social domains in young children involved welfare system; 2) examine maltreatment characteristics family protective factors relation identified profiles. A secondary analysis was conducted using data from National Survey Child...
Purpose: To (1) assess rates of burnout in Fellows the American Academy Optometry and (2) associations among perceptions workplace wellness support with lifestyle behaviors health indicators (ie, anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, mattering to workplace, is not stressful). Methods: A survey collected sample characteristics outcomes interest from 321 Fellows. Results: Thirty-two percent reported burnout. Females those working academia were significantly more likely report being burned out...
ABSTRACT Background Staff shortages as well poor nurse and clinician well‐being are currently an epidemic within the health workforce pose a substantial risk to healthcare quality safety. Creating strong wellness culture is one strategy address issue, but there paucity of research that investigates how other types organizational cultures related nurses' mental well‐being. Aims To describe relationships among innovation culture, evidence‐based practice (EBP) (healthy lifestyle behaviors,...
Preeclampsia is a leading contributor to maternal and infant mortality, early risk identification high priority. Inflammatory markers have shown potential as biomarkers for preeclampsia prediction, though optimal timing marker selection remain unclear. We measured 20 inflammatory using the Luminex platform across all three trimesters in 37 participants who developed 74 normotensive controls, matched pre-pregnancy body mass index (>25), smoking status, race. examined individual by trimester,...
Abstract The everyday impacts of stressful experiences lead to an increased risk heart disease, stroke, and mental illness. Daily Inventory Stressful Events (DISE) is a widely used measure daily stressors. DISE’s popularity based on its accepted validity the detailed information it provides researchers. However, DISE relies interviews conducted one-on-one with participants over several days and, as such, presents high burden both Thus, many researchers have opted simplify by substituting...
Obesity and preeclampsia both involve a pathological inflammatory response, which may be how obesity increases risk. Previous studies have failed to assess robust measurements of markers across gestation, specifically in overweight/ obese women the context preeclampsia.
Abstract Real-time objective measures of stress are crucial for identifying mechanisms applicable to health behavior change research dementia caregivers. We explore the Pittsburgh Stress Battery (PSB) in a non-laboratory setting (R21AG077069) as an measure reactivity/resilience. The PSB was administered 16 Black American women caregivers with hypertension (40-65 years old). includes three challenging tasks (Stroop, Mental Math, and Mirror Tracing). An automatic cuff measured systolic blood...
Caregivers of persons with Alzheimer disease and related dementias (ADRD) neglect their health, including by ignoring stress levels. African American women are vulnerable susceptible to hypertension. Chronic caregiving hypertension place them at high risk for cardiovascular disease. Addressing reactivity or resilience is vital in lessening stress, enhancing quality life (QOL), fostering healthy blood pressure (BP) self-care behaviors. This pilot study aims investigate the feasibility...
Considering the high prevalence and negative consequences of non-maltreatment adverse childhood experiences (NM-ACEs), it is critical to understand their impacts on resilient functioning young children. This study sought examine heterogeneity in resilience among first-grade children who were exposed NM-ACEs during kindergarten explore demographic adversity characteristics that distinguish between profiles. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was conducted 4929 drawn from Early Childhood...
Abstract Background Process data, data generated by a user's interaction with web‐based application, is an emerging tool in educational research. The current study explores using process as measure of implementation fidelity to randomized control trial (RCT) the Read It Again Mobile (RIA‐M) curricular supplement. Objectives To determine extent which teachers implemented RIA‐M and assess utility assessment fidelity. Methods RCT involved 30 pre‐kindergarten classrooms sample n = 216 students....
Research Findings: The purpose of this study was to test a theoretical measurement model representing four proposed dimensions the classroom ecology in pre-K third-grade classrooms. Classroom Composition, Peer Network and Norms, Teacher Practices, Student Experiences were evaluated using data collected 182 classrooms 2,662 students two districts spanning rural, suburban, urban settings. Overall, supported multi-dimensional nature across early primary grades, although specific characteristics...
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Web-based parent training (PT) programs can strengthen parent-child relationships by equipping caregivers with knowledge and evidence-based strategies to manage behavior. Hybrid facilitation of PT includes facilitator interaction paired self-administered web-based PT. administrative dashboards provide users (eg, administrators, facilitators, researchers) an integrated platform monitor progress activities within a program or website. Despite the utility...

Sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption is strongly associated with obesity. Autonomous motivation and self-efficacy, key concepts of self-determination theory, may influence SSB consumption. Low-income mothers young children experience disproportionate rates Whether autonomous self-efficacy are in low-income unknown. This exploratory secondary data analysis explored whether or were SBB using from a lifestyle intervention for low-income, overweight obese children. Participants (N = 311)...
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is common and deadly. Naltrexone a treatment for AUD. Previous research examined factors that predict Ohio Advanced Practice Registered Nurses' (APRNs) utilization of naltrexone to treat Inclusion criteria included APRNs' endorsing receipt the X-waiver, designation indicating providers' substance education. In 2023, X-waiver was eliminated. The purpose this study replicate previous design in respondents without an compare findings.
Caregivers of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often report higher levels stress and mental health issues. Support services parent training programs may help buffer the effects caring for a child ASD. However, due to national lack trained ASD providers disparity support resources available in rural areas, caregivers go without support. A possible solution reach areas is web-based interventions. This paper describes an ongoing pilot study examining feasibility, acceptability,...

Background: More than 350,000 U.S. infants are admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) annually and likely experience discomfort. Although nurse perceptions of infant symptoms, suffering, quality life (QOL) valuable, availability standardized assessment tools measure these concepts limited. Purpose: To provide preliminary evidence internal structure, reliability, validity Nurse Perception Infant Condition (NPIC) scale. Methods: Infants were enrolled from a Level IV NICU in...
Background Inflammatory diets may influence risk of cardiovascular disease. Subsequent disease is also influenced by adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs) such as preterm birth, small‐for‐gestational‐age gestational diabetes, and hypertensive disorders pregnancy. However, the associations between inflammatory diet, APOs, cardiometabolic health remain unclear. Methods Results We used data from nuMoM2b (Nulliparous Pregnancy Outcomes Study Monitoring Mothers‐to‐Be) HHS (Heart Health Study) to...
