{"title":"Digital and social media use among adolescents in Arctic Norway: Exploring risk and protective factors in Finnmark County","authors":"Shiho Hansen","doi":"10.1016/j.dialog.2025.100212","DOIUrl":"10.1016/j.dialog.2025.100212","url":null,"abstract":"<div><div>Digital and social media use among adolescents in Finnmark County, Arctic Norway, has increased significantly over the past decade. However, the mechanisms linking risk and protective factors to these behaviors remain underexplored. This study examines the associations between individual, environmental, and behavioral factors influencing digital and social media use among high school students in Finnmark. Using data from the 2021 Ungdata survey, which included responses from 2086 high school students in Finnmark County, the research examined associations between individual factors, environmental influences (e.g., family, peers, schools), and risk behaviors (e.g., substance use, antisocial behavior) through partial least squares structural equation modeling with stepwise regression. The findings revealed distinct patterns: digital media use was associated with environmental factors such as relationships with parents, school connectedness, and satisfaction with the local area. In contrast, social media use was associated with peer dynamics, internal feelings, and negative experiences, including depression and sexual harassment. While media use fostered social connections, heavy use was associated with reduced physical activity and face-to-face interactions, exacerbating regional challenges like geographic isolation and cultural diversity. These findings underscore the importance of distinguishing between digital and social media in research and interventions, integrating the unique sociocultural context of Finnmark. Future studies should explore the behavioral dimensions of media use and incorporate ethnicity-related factors to deepen the understanding of adolescent media behaviors in Arctic regions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":72803,"journal":{"name":"Dialogues in health","volume":"6 ","pages":"Article 100212"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143768521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

HRQoL is a critical consideration for HIV and AIDS patients as it reflects their overall well-being and treatment outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the HRQoL of PLWHA receiving an ART regimen containing tenofovir, lamivudine, and dolutegravir at a tertiary hospital in Johannesburg, South Africa. This descriptive, quantitative, cross-sectional study included 103 patients who consented in writing to participate. Data was collected using WHOQOL HIV-BREF, socio-demographic, health characteristics, and adherence questionnaires. Participants who reported ‘excellent’ and ‘very good’ on the descriptive rating scale were considered to have optimal adherence (≥95 %). This study's statistical significance was set at <em>p</em> ≤ 0.05. More than half of the participants were male (n = 53; 51.5 %), employed (n = 54; 52.4 %) had an income less than 2000 South African Rands (n = 59; 57.3 %), and reported high levels of adherence over a 7-day (n = 71; 68.9 %) and 4-week (n = 70; 67.9 %) reporting period. Majority of the sample considered their health as ‘good’ (n = 82; 79.6 %) and did not consider themselves ill (n = 85; 82.5 %). This study found that education level, income, health status, and perception of illness significantly (<em>p</em> ≤ 0.05) affected most domains of HRQoL and Overall HRQoL. While adherent (≥95 %) patients indicated superior HRQoL across most dimensions relative to non-adherent (≥95 %) patients, significant disparities in mean scores were exclusively noted only in the psychological domain (<em>p</em> = 0.01). Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that level of education (<em>Ꞵ</em> = 1.18; <em>p</em> = 0.01), income (<em>Ꞵ</em> = 0.72; <em>p</em> = 0.00), perception of illness (<em>Ꞵ</em> = 1.75; <em>p</em> &lt; 0.001), and health status (<em>Ꞵ</em> = 1.68; <em>p</em> &lt; 0.001) are the predictors of overall HRQoL.

This article describes results from a longitudinal, qualitative Photovoice study with women refugees from the DRC between 2016 and 2023. Participatory analysis with participant co-researchers and inductive manual analysis revealed four themes illustrating experiences with employment and the workplace: job (in)security, discrimination, injuries, and workplace potential. Evidence from this study demonstrates the need for more intentional, tailored public health and social service interventions centering on the workplace for Congolese refugee women resettled in the U.S. The federal policy pushes refugees toward early self-sufficiency. Our findings suggest this is problematic as it negatively impacts language acquisition, which in turn creates a ripple effect of negative outcomes, including insufficient access to jobs offering a living wage, limited access to jobs with health insurance, and exposure to jobs with high risk of injury or social settings enhancing discrimination. These experiences can be further exacerbated for women refugees from Africa standing at the intersection of race, gender, and refugee status.

CHARM2 offers 5-session gender-synchronized family planning and gender equity counseling delivered by trained local medical providers. Data were collected at baseline in September 2018–June 2019 and then follow-ups at 9, 18, 36 and 48 months, up to September 2023. We retained 88 %–91 % of women across follow-ups with no difference in retention by treatment group. We used adjusted mixed-effects logistic regression models examining sex composition of births at each follow-up and over the total 48-month follow-up to assess differences in all births of boys and girls by treatment group.
