Demographic data included sex, race, year of study, involvement in clubs or organizations, and living situation. Researchers utilized restocking data on a weekly basis to assess product utilization. Survey findings were compared to dispensing data. Results: Students reported the vending machine would increase their access to pain relievers as well as sexual and reproductive health products. The most frequently dispensed products included emergency contraception, ibuprofen, safe sex kits, tampons, and COVID tests. Conclusions: Restocking data mirrored preactivation survey preferences suggesting outreach may be a dependable method to ensure student preferences.","PeriodicalId":14900,"journal":{"name":"Journal of American College Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143811362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Techniques (audit trail, bracketing of biases, and member checking) were utilized to enhance the study's rigor. Results: Three themes with eight sub-themes representing need-supporting strategies were constructed: (a) ATs attempted to foster injured athletes' perceived relatedness by cultivating trusting connections; (b) ATs attempted to foster injured athletes' perceived competence by engendering mastery during rehabilitation; and (c) ATs attempted to foster injured athletes' perceived autonomy by promoting ownership of their rehabilitation. Conclusions: Multiple strategies described by ATs were aligned with need-satisfying approaches discussed by athletes in previous research. The present study offers rich descriptions of techniques for facilitating optimal motivation in injured college athletes for ATs to consider.","PeriodicalId":14900,"journal":{"name":"Journal of American College Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143764060","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Other recent work has shown similar outcomes between autistic and non-autistic students. Participants: Participants in this study were autistic college students. Methods: We implemented a mixed methods approach including thematic analysis of interviews conducted at the end of the semester, along with weekly surveys, capturing autistic students' college experiences in real time. Qualitative findings were integrated with quantitative analysis of standardized measures of campus connectedness, student satisfaction and student adjustment to college. Results: Weekly surveys were generally positive with most not reporting any challenges. End of semester interviews reflected similar results. Feelings of belonging on campus and college satisfaction were high. Conclusion: Gathering first-hand accounts on a weekly basis provided a unique account of autistic students' experiences, and while not the case for all, many were successfully navigating the demands of college life.","PeriodicalId":14900,"journal":{"name":"Journal of American College Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143764059","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: Mixed-methods, quasi-experimental design. Faculty were randomly assigned to either implement curricular micro-interventions (the experimental group) or not (the control group). Student participants completed three surveys: pre-, mid-, and post-test. Six experimental group faculty completed a post-study focus group. Results: Qualitative data indicated micro-interventions are feasible to implement (RQ1), and students responded well and perceived a positive impact on their lives (RQ2). Conclusions: Resilience micro-interventions are feasible to implement in the classroom and show promise for supporting student resilience and well-being.

Methods: Diet History Questionnaire quantified total FC plus subclasses, soluble dietary fibers (SDF), and polyols. Anthropometrics, blood pressure, and blood glucose were collected by standard measures. Median split classified FC intakes; multiple linear regression evaluated differences in health parameters between low and high FC consumers. Results: Average FC intakes for low and high FC consumers were 4.6 ± 1.4gand 10.9 ± 4.0g, with most coming from soluble dietary fibers. After controlling for confounders, low FCs showed higher diastolic blood pressure (β = 2.95, p = 0.04), blood glucose (β = 2.65 mg/dL; p = 0.02*), and BMI (β = 0.99, p = 0.050*, R2=0.04) than high consumers.

Methods: The Sleep Condition Indicator, the Suicide Behaviors Questionnaire-Revised, and the Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness were used to assess insomnia, suicidal risk, and interoception. Network analysis explored the connections between insomnia and suicidal risk, while mediation analysis examined the role of the interoceptive sensitivity dimensions. Results: 46.18% of participants had clinical insomnia, and 37.84% had elevated suicide risk. Nocturnal insomnia symptoms were more strongly associated with suicidal risk than daytime symptoms. Trusting body signals was found to partially mediate this association. Conclusions: These findings suggest that nocturnal insomnia may have a greater impact on suicide risk, with trust influencing this relationship.

Data was analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics, including Hayes PROCESS macro for testing indirect effects. Results: Psychache, but not depression or hopelessness, significantly played an indirect role in the relationship between forgiveness and suicidality. Higher levels of each of forgiveness of self and of uncontrollable situations were associated with lower levels of psychache and in turn lower levels of suicidality. Conversely, forgiveness of others was linked to higher levels of psychache and suicidality. Conclusions: These results underscore the complexity of the relationship between forgiveness, psychological distress, and suicidality, emphasizing the importance of targeted interventions. Further research is needed to investigate the underlying mechanisms driving the adverse effects of forgiveness of others.","PeriodicalId":14900,"journal":{"name":"Journal of American College Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143674037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
