An interpretative phenomenological analysis methodological approach was used.Results: Six themes were generated: (1) Navigating a difficult medical journey; (2) Managing a chronic skin condition is all-consuming; (3) Living with a chronic skin condition can be physically limiting; (4) Distressed, isolated and abnormal: How my skin makes me feel; (5) What is wrong with you? Experiences of stigma because of my skin; and (6) The resilience journey when living with a chronic skin condition.Conclusions: Findings highlight the difficulties experienced by young dermatology patients, particularly during adolescence, including challenges with healthcare providers, mobility disruptions and stigmatisation. Findings offer insight into how young people can be supported during their transition into adulthood, for example, treating skin conditions with a psychodermatological approach.","PeriodicalId":20718,"journal":{"name":"Psychology & Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-29"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142822512","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Qualitative questions about perceived benefits and risks of COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy.Results: Multivariate analysis of correlates of vaccine hesitancy and resistance revealed independent associations for perceived barriers to the COVID-19 vaccine, anticipated regret, and social influences. Most respondents described making a decision regarding COVID-19 vaccination in the absence of satisfactory information or guidance from a health care professional. Vaccine hesitant and resistant respondents reported significantly greater barriers to the COVID-19 vaccination than vaccine accepting respondents. Concerns about the vaccine focussed on the speed of its development and roll-out and lack of evidence regarding its safe use in pregnancy.Conclusion: Participants who did not intend to be vaccinated against COVID-19 in pregnancy focused on vaccine fears as opposed to virus fears. Results indicate that pregnant women need balanced vaccine information and unequivocal health care provider recommendation to aid maternal vaccination decision-making.","PeriodicalId":20718,"journal":{"name":"Psychology & Health","volume":" ","pages":"1706-1726"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9558353","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Young people were particularly affected by these psychological consequences, which formed the focus of the mental health concerns voiced by the World Health Organization. This research aimed to analyze, first-hand, the primary emotions that COVID-19 evoked in young Spanish people after two years of the pandemic. Participants were recruited through a snowball sampling procedure using emails, virtual platforms of the schools, and social networks, and a google forms questionnaire was administered for data collection. A total of 479 Spanish young people (18-36 years) participated in this study. The questionnaire consisted of a free-association exercise based on the Grid Elaboration Method (GEM) to analyze the participants' emotional representations of COVID-19. In addition, lexical analysis was used to analyze the text corpus. As a result, it could be observed that sadness was the core emotion experienced among young people, followed by fear. Specifically, emotional breakdown, fear, fatigue, and anger figured centrally in their emotional representations. Moreover, the findings revealed new patterns of self- and onward blaming towards youths. It was concluded that results of this research provide important clues for managing the mental health of young people, particularly during future pandemics.","PeriodicalId":20718,"journal":{"name":"Psychology & Health","volume":" ","pages":"1805-1822"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41238017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results reveal the pivotal role of physicians' environmental stress related to their work and family contexts in influencing patients' adherence to COVID-19 guidelines through the mediation of physicians' information sharing. The ego networks of physicians, encompassing both advice-seeking and friendship ties, were observed to negatively moderate the relationship between stress and resource depletion. Broadly, our study shows the importance of understanding physicians' stress caused by the working and family environments, as these factorsnot only impact the psychological well-being of physicians but also significantly affect patients' compliance with COVID-19 guidelines.

Experiment 2 presented the messages using news articles and manipulated sources.Results: Study 1 found decreasing adherence over time, with no significant impact from message content or individual differences.
