Abstract The current COVID‐19 pandemic has created a global context likely to increase eating disorder (ED) risk and symptoms, decrease factors that protect against EDs, exacerbate barriers care. Three pathways exist by which this may ED risk. One, the disruptions daily routines constraints outdoor activities weight shape concerns, negatively impact eating, exercise, sleeping patterns, in turn symptoms. Relatedly, accompanying social restrictions deprive individuals of support adaptive...
Engineering ceramics have high stiffness, excellent thermostability, and relatively low density, but their brittleness impedes use as structural materials. Incorporating carbon nanotubes (CNTs) into a brittle ceramic might be expected to provide CNT/ceramic composites with both toughness temperature stability. Until now, however, materials fabrication difficulties limited research on composites. The mechanical failure of reported previously is primarily attributed poor CNT–matrix...
Involvement in health-endangering behaviors is considered a reflection of college students' psychosocial development; however, not all students participate these activities. Emotion skills, such as the ability to interpret and manage emotions, may serve protective factor against risk-taking behavior among emerging adults. We compared contributions emotional intelligence self-esteem, commonly studied risk factor, engagement undergraduates (N = 243). Structural equation modeling revealed that...
Despite public health measures and health-promotion efforts, the decline in tuberculosis (TB) morbidity Japan has been slow, with a higher TB incidence rate relative to those observed most developed countries. Because behavior depends on multiple factors is formulated within social context, theory-driven model would be necessary increase prevention behavior. Based upon Health Belief Model, this study examined effects of beliefs, personality traits, among Japanese adults. A cross-sectional...
Purpose To develop and validate the Expanded Mindful Eating Scale (EMES), an expanded mindful eating model created for promotion of health sustainability. Design/methodology/approach A cross-sectional study using self-administered questionnaire surveys on Ochanomizu Health Study (OHS) was conducted. The survey provided to 1,388 female university students in Tokyo, Japan. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory (CFA) a partial correlation were used confirm construct criterion...
"Fat talk" refers to conversations focused on body disparagement. We examined developmental changes in fat talk avoid social rejection and the mediating role of between "thin-ideal" internalization dissatisfaction. A total 214 high school girls 227 college-aged women completed questionnaires assessing engagement, dissatisfaction, thin-ideal internalization, sensitivity rejection. Path analyses showed that mediated dissatisfaction predicted among girls, but not college women. The purpose...
In this study, a survey of Sri Lankan adolescents explored relationships between thin-ideal internalization and body dissatisfaction-issues that have received greater research attention in East Asia the West. Girls scored lower awareness higher self-esteem compared to boys; however, unlike previous studies, dissatisfaction did not differ significantly by gender. Hierarchical linear multiple regression analyses revealed moderated relationship among girls, but was observed for boys....
The utilization of professional help is affected by individual factors such as help-seeking attitudes and self-concealment well the availability mental health services. present study examined role cultural self-construal on toward psychological A survey was conducted with 214 Japanese college students. Multiple regression analyses found that interdependent significantly predicted Recognition Need for Psychological Services. Self-concealment predictive two different facets attitudes:...
