Using a difference-in-differences framework with continuous treatment, we examine how the transition differentially affected state-level vaccine refusal rates and county-level vaccination rates, based on varying levels of partisanship as measured by the Trump-Biden vote gap.Results: Following Biden's inauguration, vaccine refusal declined more in pro-Biden states. Distrust in government and vaccines accounted for approximately 80% of the interstate variation. County-level analysis revealed that for every 1 percentage point increase in Trump's vote share over Biden's, counties experienced an additional 0.515%-2.674% decline in vaccination rates among adults aged 65+. These effects were more pronounced in politically loyal and high-turnout counties.Conclusion: The presidential transition appears to have widened partisan divides regrading COVID-19 vaccines. These findings highlight the need for depoliticized health messaging and bipartisan strategies to mitigate the influence of partisanship on public health.","PeriodicalId":14322,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Health","volume":"70 ","pages":"1608162"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12116312/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144173107","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}

This study examines the relationship between focus on self-presentation on social media and wellbeing among Norwegian adolescents aged 13-15.Methods: Data from the 2022 Health Behaviour in School-Aged Children (HBSC) survey, encompassing 1,982 participants. Wellbeing was assessed using the WHO-5 Wellbeing Index, while self-presentation focus was measured using the Self-Presentation and Upward Social Comparison Inclination Scale (SPAUSCIS). Statistical models for estimating unadjusted and adjusted associations were employed, as well as testing for age- and gender-moderation.Results: Higher focus on self-presentation was associated with lower wellbeing (unadjusted: β -5.1, p < 0.001; fully adjusted: β -2.5, p < 0.001). The association was stronger for girls (unadjusted: β -4.6, p < 0.001) than boys (unadjusted: β -2.0, p < 0.001). Gender-moderation was significant (p = 0.012), but no age-moderation was observed (p = 0.057).Conclusion: The findings indicate a negative association between focus on self-presentation and wellbeing, with a more pronounced effect observed in girls compared to boys. The study underscores the need for public health interventions targeting the reduction of self-presentation and social comparison behaviors on social media.","PeriodicalId":14322,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Health","volume":"70 ","pages":"1608425"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12074912/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144078011","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}

Most individuals with disabilities had not completed high school, and employment opportunities were limited.

Their inputs have been used towards the development of the final framework.Results: No relevant comprehensive education framework existed, however, most medical schools provided related teaching. The literature analysis identified migration-related risk factors, social determinants and challenges when providing mental health to this population. Teaching methods included lectures, reflection rounds in small groups and practical experiences.
