The goals of this qualitative study were to investigate the extent to which an existing conceptual model on topical fluoride hesitancy is applicable to Latino parents and whether applicability differed between Spanish-speaking Latino (SL) and English-speaking Latino (EL) parents. We conducted semi-structured one-on-one interviews with non-Latino English-speaking parents (N = 50), SL parents (n = 8), and EL parents (n = 8). We coded the transcripts deductively and compared our findings both qualitatively and quantitatively to an existing model on topical fluoride hesitancy comprising 21 categories classified into six domains. We compared frequencies across model domains and categories for Latino versus non-Latino parents as well as for SL versus EL parents. Latino parents were represented across all six domains and 21 categories of the conceptual model. Comparing Latino and non-Latino parents, representation was similar across Domains 1 to 3 (necessity, chemicals, and harm); Latino parents were more highly represented in Domains 4 to 6 (uncertainty, pressure, and choice) compared with non-Latino parents. A larger proportion of EL parents thought a healthy diet was more important than fluoride (Category 1d) and a larger proportion of SL parents felt they did not know enough about fluoride (Category 4a). An existing conceptual model on topical fluoride hesitancy was generally a good fit for SL and EL parents. However, differential representation across model categories suggests that fluoride-related communication and intervention approaches may need to be tailored to Latino parents based on language preference.","PeriodicalId":12974,"journal":{"name":"Health Education & Behavior","volume":" ","pages":"719-732"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139899709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The health implications of suboptimal breastfeeding durations are significant, including increased risk of childhood leukemia and maternal Type 2 diabetes. Prenatal breastfeeding education provides an opportunity to improve breastfeeding self-efficacy among pregnant individuals and to establish their coping skills in case future breastfeeding problems arise. Although prenatal breastfeeding education is known to improve breastfeeding self-efficacy, characteristics of prenatal breastfeeding education interventions that are successful at increasing breastfeeding duration have not been well defined. Using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines and the Health Action Process Approach, we conducted a systematic review of the literature examining the impact of prenatal breastfeeding education interventions on breastfeeding duration measured at least 12 weeks postpartum. Twenty-one studies were identified. Prenatal breastfeeding education was most likely to increase breastfeeding duration when education interventions integrated psychological components (Health Action Process Approach coping planning) or were paired with in-person postpartum breastfeeding support. Additional research is needed to examine the role of psychological components in breastfeeding education interventions in diverse populations and to determine the specific psychological intervention components with the greatest impact on breastfeeding duration.","PeriodicalId":12974,"journal":{"name":"Health Education & Behavior","volume":" ","pages":"665-676"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11420594/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139489956","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The challenge for patients is that the complex nature of health-related financial decisions requires specialized knowledge to avoid these suboptimal choices. While the benefits of improved health literacy are well documented, the connection between health care and household finances may mean that there is a role for education and financial knowledge in improving outcomes. This study uses data from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority's Financial Capability Survey in a binomial logistic regression to examine the role of education and financial knowledge in health-related financial decisions. The results show that both higher levels of education and financial knowledge are related to a higher likelihood of obtaining health insurance coverage and a lower likelihood of having medical debt and engaging in cost avoidance. Income disparities remain, however, especially for those in the middle-income brackets. These results raise the possibility that increases in general education and financial knowledge may improve health outcomes, but those facing the most complex health care decisions may need more specialized knowledge. This implies that given the connection between health care and personal finances, increasing objective and subjective knowledge may lead to better outcomes for patients' financial and physical health.","PeriodicalId":12974,"journal":{"name":"Health Education & Behavior","volume":" ","pages":"710-718"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139519766","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first round of intervention included 1,835 participants, lasting 2 months from September to November 2020. A total of 374 participants, accounting for 52% of the intervention group, received a second round of intervention in September 2021.

Propensity score matching and difference-in-difference analysis were performed to determine the short- and long-term impacts.Results: Significant improvements were observed for both sexual knowledge and sexual attitudes in the immediate follow-up. There was no significant effect on pornography-seeking behavior or awareness of experiencing sexual abuse. After 1 year, the effect was sustained for sexual knowledge, but slightly declined for sexual attitudes. The second intervention significantly improved sexual knowledge; however, no significant change in sexual attitudes, pornography-seeking behavior, or awareness of experiencing sexual abuse was observed.Conclusions: Our comprehensive sexuality education package was effective in improving sexual knowledge both immediately and 1 year after the intervention. Repeated intervention can be an effective strategy for promoting preadolescent health development regarding comprehensive sexuality education.","PeriodicalId":12974,"journal":{"name":"Health Education & Behavior","volume":" ","pages":"733-747"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140856026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Screening approaches for GDM have undergone several iterations, introducing variability in practice among healthcare providers. As such, our study aimed to explore the views of antenatal providers regarding their practices of, and counseling experiences on the topic of, GDM screening in Ontario. We conducted a qualitative, grounded theory study. The study population included antenatal providers (midwives, family physicians, and obstetricians) practicing in Hamilton, Ottawa, or Sudbury, Ontario. Semi-structured telephone interviews were conducted and transcribed verbatim. Transcripts were analyzed using inductive coding upon which codes, categories, and themes were developed to generate a theory grounded in the data. Twenty-two participants were interviewed. Using the social-ecological theory, we created a model outlining four contextual levels that shaped the experiences of GDM counseling and screening: Intrapersonal factors included beliefs, knowledge, and skills; interpersonal factors characterized the patient-provider interactions; organizational strengths and challenges shaped collaboration and health services infrastructure; and finally, guidelines and policies were identified as systemic barriers to health care access and delivery. A focus on patient-centered care was a guiding principle for all care providers and permeated all four levels of the model. Patient-centered care and close attention to barriers and facilitators across intrapersonal, interpersonal, organizational, and policy domains can minimize the impact of variations in GDM screening guidelines. Among care providers, there is a desire for additional skill development related to GDM counseling, and for national consensus on optimal screening guidelines.","PeriodicalId":12974,"journal":{"name":"Health Education & Behavior","volume":" ","pages":"748-756"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11411845/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139971666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To examine potential mediating pathways between The Real Cost ads and susceptibility to vaping, we examined theory-based psychosocial and message-related variables. The largest impact of The Real Cost ads on susceptibility was via more negative attitudes toward vaping (βa*βb = -0.16; 95% confidence interval [CI] = [-0.25, -0.06]). Other mediation paths were via improved health harm risk beliefs (βa*βb = -0.08; 95% CI = [-0.13, -0.04]), addiction risk beliefs (βa*βb = -0.04; 95% CI = [-0.06, -0.01]), injunctive norms against vaping (βa*βb = -0.05; 95% CI = [-0.09, -0.02]), negative affect (βa*βb = -0.05; 95% CI = [-0.08, -0.02]), and cognitive elaboration (βa*βb = -0.03; 95% CI = [-0.05, -0.003]).

That approach has largely failed beyond the short term for many decades as obesity rates continue to rise. Therefore, leveraging improvements in psychosocial correlates of weight-loss behaviors has sometimes been suggested instead. The aim of this study was evaluation of targeted improvements in self-regulation and self-efficacy within a theoretically derived weight-loss program. Women with obesity (N = 103) participated in a year-long community-based program emphasizing self-regulatory skills development to counter lifestyle barriers/challenges to first exercise, then controlled eating. Within a structured treatment protocol administered by community facility employees-and based on tenets of social cognitive theory, self-regulation theory, self-efficacy theory, and coaction theory-self-regulatory skills were initially developed to foster adherence to exercise. Those skills were then adapted to promote eating-behavior changes, emphasizing fruit and vegetable intake. Improvements in measures of exercise self-regulation, eating self-regulation, and self-efficacy for controlling eating, their corresponding behaviors, and weight and waist circumference were significant. Greater within-participant carry-over of changes in exercise self-regulation to eating self-regulation was significantly associated with more weight and waist circumference reductions over both 6 and 12 months. Change in eating-related self-efficacy significantly mediated those relationships. The mean weight reduction of approximately 6% indicated positive effects on obesity-related health risks. The community-based setting indicated potentials for large-scale dissemination of theory- and evidence-driven behavioral obesity treatments focused primarily on self-regulatory skills development.","PeriodicalId":12974,"journal":{"name":"Health Education & Behavior","volume":" ","pages":"10901981241281331"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142345580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To understand the effectiveness of public health communication to Latinx communities in Michigan during the COVID-19 pandemic, semi-structured interviews (n = 16) and three focus groups (n = 24 participants) were conducted virtually in 2021 across counties in Michigan deeply impacted by COVID-19: Washtenaw, Kent, Genesee, and Wayne. Participants shared some facilitating factors that supported effective health communication during the pandemic for their communities. For instance, in their experiences, religious and community leaders were especially effective in communicating information about the pandemic. They also expressed issues with English often being the only language of official communication; the need for bilingual options; and, the need for multiple channels of communication to reach as many people as possible. Participants also highlighted their concerns about inconsistent government communication and politicizing messages as a hindering factor that impacted effective health communication within their communities. Lessons from successes and failures experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic are vital to improving health outcomes for marginalized communities during public health crises. Future responses must ensure that public health communication is appropriate and effective for Latinx communities to better protect them.","PeriodicalId":12974,"journal":{"name":"Health Education & Behavior","volume":" ","pages":"10901981241278962"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142285885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
