Effects on perceived stress, distress, and well-being were sustained at long-term follow-up. Interventions did not show statistically significant differences in blood pressure, cortisol level, heart rate variability, or inflammatory markers.

Although women report more frequent and disabling pains than men, their pains are more often underassessed and undertreated in clinical encounters. Understanding the 'whens' and 'whys' of this gender paradox is vital to promote pain care equity and efficiency. Yet, the atheoretical and descriptive nature of most studies on provider gender biases in pain care is stalling the research field. To overcome this gap, we first propose the novel Gender Biases in Pain Care Model, which conceptualises the contextual nature of gender biases in pain care. It is an interaction-based socioecological model that integrates assumptions of gender-related theories and dual process models of person perception and stereotyping. Second, we conduct a theory-driven review of current evidence addressing the model's theoretical contentions. Sixty-six articles (8 reviews and 58 primary studies), mostly published in 2010-2024, were included. Although findings provide preliminary support for the model's four contentions, important empirical gaps are still unaddressed. We discuss how this model is a steppingstone to the generation of novel research questions and testable hypotheses that may fill current knowledge gaps and contribute to the development of equitable pain practices and policies.","PeriodicalId":48034,"journal":{"name":"Health Psychology Review","volume":" ","pages":"1-28"},"PeriodicalIF":9.7,"publicationDate":"2026-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147515924","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Health behaviour is one pathway by which stress affects health. Less research has jointly investigated stress and health behaviour but lately it has gained traction owing to the increased availability of methods for studying daily life that allow stress and health behaviour to be studied when and where it occurs. However, findings are highly heterogeneous, with studies finding positive, negative or no relationship between stress and health behaviour. In this paper, we discuss key sources of this heterogeneity, working toward a framework that will guide the field forward. Key elements of the framework include specifying (1) which stress aspects are related to which health behaviours, (2) considering the bidirectionality and (3) temporal dynamics of the stress-health behaviour relationship, and identifying (4) for whom and (5) under what circumstances stress relates to health behaviour. Further, we (6) highlight methodological challenges and provide guidance on how to consider these when planning and reporting research for more robust psychological science in this field. Taken together, we believe this work will help disentangle the complex relationship between stress and health behaviour and build a cumulative evidence base to pave the way for interventions.","PeriodicalId":48034,"journal":{"name":"Health Psychology Review","volume":" ","pages":"1-23"},"PeriodicalIF":9.7,"publicationDate":"2026-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147370465","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In 2011, the International Cancer and Cognition Task Force (ICCTF) established guidelines for neuropsychological assessment, however many neuropsychological tests lack validity for oncological patients. This systematic review aims to identify and summarise the most commonly used neuropsychological tests for cognitive screening and assessment in non-CNS cancer patients within research contexts.

Quality assessment was assessed following the MMAT Guidelines. Eligibility criteria were met by 178 studies which adopted 151 different neuropsychological tests. The most widely used screening test was the Mini-Mental State Examination (N=41). Among the main cognitive domains analyzed, the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised (N=61) was the most commonly used to assess memory. The Controlled Oral Word Association Test (N=24) was primarily utilised for language assessment and the Trail Making Test-part A (TMT-A) (N=37) was the most frequently used to assess the attention domain. Moreover, executive functions were predominantly evaluated using the TMT-B (N=45). Among the included studies, only 42 adhered to the ICCTF guidelines. Despite the available guidelines, the wide variability of the utilised tests undermines the generalisability of results. These findings underscore the necessity of developing and implementing assessment and screening tools that are specifically tailored to cancer patients.","PeriodicalId":48034,"journal":{"name":"Health Psychology Review","volume":" ","pages":"46-110"},"PeriodicalIF":9.7,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144754895","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For each candidate input, we identify which models include the input, consider relevant research, discuss how and why the input may be related to physical activity identity, and offer practical strategies for building or strengthening physical activity identity.

The dominant theory underpinning illness perception - Leventhal's Common-Sense Model - proposes that individuals construct cognitive representations of illness based on specific beliefs about its features and likely course (e.g., symptom severity, timeline, controllability). These perceptions predict key outcomes, including functioning, quality of life, emotional distress, and treatment adherence. Mindsets are related but distinct: they are broader, more abstract beliefs about the nature and meaning of illness (e.g., viewing cancer as 'manageable' or 'a catastrophe'). While the illness perception literature is well established, mindset research in the health context is more recent, with promising findings and emerging tools for intervention. In this paper, we critically review both constructs, highlight their complementary strengths and limitations, and propose an integrative framework that unites them. We argue that combining these perspectives can sharpen measurement, deepen theoretical understanding, and enhance the impact of belief-based interventions in healthcare.","PeriodicalId":48034,"journal":{"name":"Health Psychology Review","volume":" ","pages":"197-222"},"PeriodicalIF":9.7,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145001733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
