Given the unique challenges in diagnostics and management, healthcare disillusionment and stigmatisation which distinguish rUTI from other urological conditions, specific identification of the key illness processes experienced by this patient population is required. This study aimed to identify the unique illness processes and perceptions that contribute to quality of life in rUTI, through perceived health status, psychological wellbeing, and coping. <b>Methods:</b> An international sample of adults living with rUTI (<i>N = </i>389, 96.9% female) completed a cross-sectional survey comprising the following standardised questionnaires: the EuroQoL EQ-5D-5L, Patient Health Questionnaire 9 (PHQ-9), Generalised Anxiety Disorder 7 (GAD-7), Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale-10 (CD-RISC-10), Pain Catastrophising Scale (PCS). Sociodemographic characteristics were also assessed. Structural equation modelling was conducted to identify the underlying constructs which contributed to psychological wellbeing in rUTI, establishing the 'rUTI Illness Process Model'. <b>Results:</b> The positive relationship between 'perceived health status' and 'psychological wellbeing' was partially mediated by 'rUTI coping', after controlling for the impact of household income and age (<i>p </i>< .001). The model demonstrated a large effect size (<i>R</i> <sup>2 </sup>= .81) and good local and global fit. Overall, rUTI coping skills, boosted by resilience and weakened by pain catastrophising, contribute to a significant proportion of the positive relationship between perceived health status and psychological wellbeing in rUTI. A uniquely vulnerable patient phenotype emerges from this new research, with patients who are younger and/or of lower socioeconomic status at greater risk of poorer rUTI health outcomes and psychological wellbeing, potentially requiring further support. <b>Conclusions:</b> The rUTI Illness Process Model establishes the crucial need to clinically characterise the individualised illness perceptions and metacognitive strategies held by people living with rUTI, revealing that patient-centred interventions targeting illness perceptions and coping strategies require prioritisation to enhance patient outcomes and the patient experience of living with rUTI.</p>","PeriodicalId":12891,"journal":{"name":"Health Psychology and Behavioral Medicine","volume":"12 1","pages":"2420806"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11536654/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142582423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While research suggests technology can enhance social wellbeing and protect against social disconnection, many older adults are not digitally literate, and little is known as to why and how technology adoption could be promoted in rural contexts. This study aimed to (1) explore the barriers and facilitators of technology adoption among rural older adults and (2) determine the potential utility of technology to promote social connectedness in the aged population. The Theoretical Domains Framework and the Behaviour Change Wheel (BCW) were employed to gain a comprehensive understanding of the digital and social behaviours of rural Australian older adults.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Semi-structured interviews were conducted with a convenience sample of 33 rural older adults aged between 65 and 87 years.

Findings suggest that older adults' technology adoption is not simply a technical matter, but influenced by various individual, social, and environmental contexts. Consideration of these factors during development, marketing, training and implementation may facilitate technology adoption among older adults. With regard to social connectedness, several rural barriers emerged, including low population density, geographic isolation, limited community opportunities and poor public transport infrastructure.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Technology was consistently identified as a facilitator of the social experience, indicating that technology is a promising tool to enhance social connectedness among older adults, particularly those living in rural areas. Future research should focus on enhancing the capability, opportunity and motivation of older adults in technology adoption, with reference to the rural contexts.</p>","PeriodicalId":12891,"journal":{"name":"Health Psychology and Behavioral Medicine","volume":"12 1","pages":"2398167"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11373358/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142132566","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address this gap, an abductive qualitative study aimed to examine women's help-seeking experiences for vaginismus, and its impact on their sense of self.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This study was informed by a feminist approach to the theory of self focused on participants' negotiation of dis/empowerment when help-seeking for vaginismus. Twenty-one participants aged 19-37 years (mean 27.6 years) and diagnosed with vaginismus in Australia participated in semi-structured interviews, which were thematically analysed.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Three themes were developed: <i>Interconnected constructions of womanhood and help-seeking</i>, <i>Elicit agency to move forward</i>, <i>Resilience to surmount challenges</i> with subthemes. Participant's overall help-seeking experiences, within and outside the healthcare system, shaped their sense of self in ways that drove their approach/es to future help-seeking behaviours.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Positive help-seeking experiences for vaginismus strengthened participants' sense of self to persevere with treatment even when it was difficult. Conversely, negative help-seeking experiences led to participants' weakened sense of self which was often caused by a gap between their ideal and perceived self. This led to negative feelings and responses of demotivation or halting subsequent help-seeking. Recommendations are provided to improve health professional practice to support women help-seeking for vaginismus, and to help close the gap between their ideal and perceived selves. Such insight can help to empower women's sense of self and motivate them to persevere with help-seeking to experience improvement for their vaginismus and quality of life.</p>","PeriodicalId":12891,"journal":{"name":"Health Psychology and Behavioral Medicine","volume":"12 1","pages":"2396134"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11370689/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142125515","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
