Logistic and linear regressions were used to examine associations of college-going generation status with DEABs and IE, respectively.Results: The predicted probabilities of DEABs were substantial in both FGCS (29.6-53.3%) and CGCS (26.8-50.3%) with no significant differences between FGCS and CGCS. However, FGCS had a lower IE score than CGCS (β = -0.54, 95% CI = -1.10, -0.01) after adjustment for age, sex, ethnicity/race, and body mass index.Conclusion: The differences in eating behaviors by college-going generation status emphasizes the need for inclusive efforts to prevent DEABs while highlighting the need to develop strategies to assist FGCS in practicing IE.","PeriodicalId":14900,"journal":{"name":"Journal of American College Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144159227","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}

Effective public health campaigns can convey that suicide is preventable and support resources are available on college campuses. In an effort to identify evidence-based communication strategies for these campaigns, this study evaluated infographics combining narrative testimonies (from a sibling vs. friend) with different outcomes (suicide attempt vs. death) alongside didactic information. Participants: College students. Methods: In Phase 1, we developed and pretested the infographics for acceptability and appropriateness. In Phase 2, we compared message strategies to assess identification with the protagonists and effects on attitudes, knowledge, and intentions. Results: Results showed higher identification with the narrative about a friend's death by suicide and knowledge improvements across all infographics, though attitudes and intentions remained unchanged. Conclusions: These findings offer valuable insights for enhancing suicide prevention communication strategies targeting college students and suggest future directions for refining message design.","PeriodicalId":14900,"journal":{"name":"Journal of American College Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144159233","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}

Participants: 301 Freshmen at a Northwestern University were cluster randomized by residence hall. Methods: We compared 2 conditions delivered via custom smartphone apps: (1) Cardiovascular Health, an intervention addressing behaviors related to cardiovascular disease risk; or (2) Whole Health, an active control addressing behaviors unrelated to cardiovascular disease. The primary outcome was the AHA's Life's Simple Seven (LSS) composite score. Outcomes were assessed in-person at baseline, 1 and 2 years. Linear mixed models were used to compare the groups on the composite score. Results: We found no significant group, time, or group by time differences in LSS. Participants were relatively healthy at baseline and stable over time. Cholesterol increased by 5.24 mg/dL from Baseline to Year 1 and by 7.39 mg/dL from Baseline to Year 2 in both groups. Conclusions: mHealth interventions focused on cardiovascular health did not show appreciable difference from those addressing more general health behaviors. Low engagement in the intervention could have contributed to the null findings and future research is needed to determine if mHealth strategies could be improved as an intervening modality.","PeriodicalId":14900,"journal":{"name":"Journal of American College Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144159235","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}
