Two cross-sectional surveys of the Maltese population were conducted at two time points, examining two campaigns that were conducted over two consecutive years. The first and second survey comprised 800 and 600 respondents, respectively. In total, 25% and 20% parents had heard about the first and second campaigns, respectively, suggesting that these campaigns had an impact, even when launched for short durations. The second campaign was rated as more effective than the first campaign, and fewer participants in the second campaign recalled no learning points from the campaign. Television spots during prime time and storyboards were most effective modes of media, followed by Facebook posts. Future long-term studies should explore the retention of the learning points from the campaigns, and the inclusion of practical examples is recommended for future positive parenting campaigns.</p>","PeriodicalId":46805,"journal":{"name":"Global Health Promotion","volume":" ","pages":"17579759251353765"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144700042","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}

Based on the Common-Sense Model, the current study aimed to investigate and document the public's perceptions of COVID-19, examine the relationship between health literacy, fear of COVID-19, and illness perceptions and explore their role in the adoption of protective behaviours. Data from 330 adults were collected through an electronic questionnaire, including the Perceived Stress Scale, the Brief Illness Perceptions Questionnaire, the European Health Literacy Questionnaire-16, the Coronavirus Anxiety Scale, the Fear of COVID-19 Scale, and items related to socio-demographic characteristics, protective behaviours and experience of illness. The results show that increased fear was correlated to more dysfunctional perceptions and increased adherence to protective behaviours (mask use and intention to vaccinate). Increased health literacy was correlated to more functional perceptions and higher intention to use masks, but not to get vaccinated. Health literacy was a significant mediator in the relationship between fear and illness perceptions and between fear and protective behaviours. The results could be useful for promoting public health risk prevention. Targeting strategies for managing negative emotions and enhancing health literacy could be an important step toward more functional illness perceptions and health behaviours.</p>","PeriodicalId":46805,"journal":{"name":"Global Health Promotion","volume":" ","pages":"17579759251342822"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144530330","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}

Fourteen youth peer educators co-designed a mental health promotion programme with family advisers and facilitated 11 workshops in two disadvantaged areas of Karachi. Of the 304 workshops participants, a sub-sample of 63 youth, mothers, teachers and peer educators attended 11 focus groups. Established themes related to the process that enabled intergenerational learning, notably participatory activities, and how such learning could be transferred to resilience-enabling systems by mobilizing communities. A multidimensional resilience framework that draws upon intergenerational experiences can usefully inform youth mental health promotion, especially in resource-constrained settings.

Yet, existing literature highlights a lack of systems thinking and coordination, limiting sports clubs' capacity to implement sustainable health promotion interventions. The aim of this article is to describe the scaling-up process and the initial systems map of a health promotion intervention in sports clubs - the PROSCeSS intervention - and to discuss the use of the ExpandNet/WHO guide in this context.A participatory research approach using the nine-step guide from the ExpandNet/WHO was used. Five 2-hour meetings, completed with feedback and questionnaires between meetings, involving 36 stakeholders (14 from public health, 7 from sports, 7 academics and 8 political actors, from local to national levels), were recorded. The data (notes, meeting minutes, questionnaires) were analysed using a deductive process based on the nine-step ExpandNet/WHO guide. Results enabled researchers to identify targets of the intervention, as well as challenges and facilitators for implementing health promotion interventions in sports clubs. Fifty political, sports, academic and public health organisations at local and regional levels were identified as being able to support the scaling-up of the intervention, endorsing different roles : 1) methodological support, 2) communication, 3) provision of resources, 4) advocacy and 5) research. Twenty-two actions were identified and prioritised to support organisations in fulfilling the role they can play in the institutionalisation and expansion of health promotion in sports clubs. This work contributes to strengthening the multi-level systems thinking needed for health promotion implementation in sports clubs, enhancing their societal role to support individuals' health.</p>","PeriodicalId":46805,"journal":{"name":"Global Health Promotion","volume":" ","pages":"17579759251332971"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144334076","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}
