The integrative model for the study of stress in Black American families provides a comprehensive perspective on how historical and current discrimination has direct and indirect effects on child behavioral health. Culturally based protective mechanisms (e.g., racial socialization) have been demonstrated to buffer adolescents from the negative effects of discrimination. The Pathways for African American Success (PAAS) program was developed as a scalable eHealth preventive intervention to facilitate parents' use of strategies to protect their children from exposure to racism and the disproportionate consequences of risk behaviors, which we label as racial equity-informed parenting. Using data from a randomized effectiveness trial of PAAS and following stress and resilience approaches, we tested multiple hypotheses about the nature of discrimination as a source of risk, as well as program-driven improvements in adolescent racial pride as a source of protection. Our risk model indicated adolescent depression was associated with their own (direct) and their parents' (indirect) experience of discrimination. Mediation analyses showed that program-driven improvements in adolescent racial pride served as a risk reducer/compensatory factor. Findings of moderation analyses, however, showed the negative effects of discrimination, even when racial pride was high.

The aim of this investigation was to create a visual framework of actions, thoughts, and feelings that promote mental health and development for youth athletes. Using a participatory mixed methods approach known as group concept mapping, 37 subject matter experts in youth athlete wellness contributed to a remote brainstorming activity by identifying the actions, thoughts, and feelings needed for youth athletes to maximize their mental health and development. Twenty-five subject matter experts then sorted the brainstormed items and rated their importance to youth mental health and development. Following data collection, the research team performed a hierarchical cluster analysis and multidimensional scaling analysis to create a point-map of items that were organized into five clusters: growth mindset, self-assurance, team culture, socioenvironmental factors, and health behaviors. Once these findings are replicated and validated in further research, parents, coaches, and sport professionals can use them to build a strong foundation for athletes in years to come. In doing so, youth athletes can remain engaged in sport and continue to experience the many benefits of sport across the lifespan.","PeriodicalId":73906,"journal":{"name":"Journal of prevention and health promotion","volume":" 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140381966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study was to explore young women’s perceptions of climate change, gender, and mental health. A feminist poststructural (FPS) approach guided this research. FPS and discourse analysis were used to explore nine participants’ perceptions of their mental health in relation to the changing climate, and how their experiences were personally, socially, and institutionally constructed. Findings highlight participant relationships to discourses surrounding hopelessness, anxiety, grief and frustration, intersectionality, stereotypes, and gender-based violence (GBV). Study findings supported by broader literature provide recommendations for the discipline of health promotion regarding gender appropriate climate mitigation and adaptation strategies that prioritize and recognize mental health. We urge health promotion to recognize and integrate the fact that climate change amplifies existing inequities into health and climate change policies whenever possible. Climate change and health policies should ensure women are safe and protected before climate driven weather events to prevent instances of GBV. We recommend that health promotion media specialists recognize the dangers and ineffectiveness of fear mongering and attempt to promote climate solutions as opposed to only stories of despair and ecological degradation.","PeriodicalId":73906,"journal":{"name":"Journal of prevention and health promotion","volume":" 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140385386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is strong evidence that interventions to increase income during adolescence can mitigate conditions such as anxiety and depression. However, policymakers lack quantified risk differences in the probability of mental illness between different income groups by which to establish the prospective scale of mitigation. Here, we estimate risk differences using two longitudinal cohort studies: Millennium Cohort Study (cohort members born between 2000 and 2002) and Next Steps (born 1989–1990). We quantify the association between income and risk of depression at age 14, serious mental illness at age 17, and non-psychotic mental illness at age 25. We also conduct sensitivity analysis using numerous other markers of socioeconomic (SES) status. We estimate that those living in the poorest quintile group of households have a greater probability of mental health problems than the richest at ages 14, 17, and 25. We find that other markers of SES status—subjective financial strain, cohort member assessed wealth relative to friends, occupational class, and education—display steeper associations with mental health symptoms relative to associations between mental health symptoms and income. Our findings are likely to be conservative underestimates since they are likely to be attenuated by well-known and large measurement errors in both mental health problems and living standards during adolescence.","PeriodicalId":73906,"journal":{"name":"Journal of prevention and health promotion","volume":" 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140221848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results showed that participating students reported increases in knowledge about bullying and sexual harassment, confidence in intervening, acceptance of responsibility, knowing what to do, and acting to intervene (including direct intervention, providing support, and reporting to an adult) from pre-to posttest. Themes from focus groups indicated that students found the training relevant and helpful, particularly for focusing on both bullying and sexual harassment and for providing opportunities to learn and practice multiple intervention strategies. Barriers to intervening based on the type of violence (e.g., physical vs. relational or verbal) and relationship with the people involved were also themes.

In total, 68% and 27% of providers reported moderate to severe work- and client-related burnout, respectively. Another 87% reported moderate to high stress. Factors associated with a higher level of burnout include being younger, having fewer years of experience, and being a social worker or family therapist. Among BIPOC providers, greater experiences of racial discrimination were associated with higher work-related burnout and stress. Greater use of maladaptive coping was associated with higher burnout and stress, yet we found no associations with the use of adaptive coping. Racial discrimination during COVID-19 was significantly associated with work-related burnout and perceived stress within a sample of predominantly BIPOC mental health providers. These findings reinforce the need for more focused support for mental health providers to ensure a healthy and resilient future workforce.","PeriodicalId":73906,"journal":{"name":"Journal of prevention and health promotion","volume":" 16","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135285978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper provides an overview of a 3-year collaboration between a Minority Serving Institution of Higher Education, and a grassroots, minority servicing HIV prevention agency. In South Florida, a geographic area with high incidence of HIV, we relied on community-based participatory research (CBPR) to guide the implementation of culturally, linguistically, and developmentally appropriate HIV prevention programming for 18 to 24-year-old Latinx university students. The project partnership was organized around: (a) integrating community knowledge through formative research to understand needs and determine relevant risk factors, (b) building a highly collaborative relationship between a large academic institution and community-based service provider, and (c) designing and implementing ongoing, strategic environmental prevention activities through community-involved research. We describe the collaborative partnership and multiple prevention strategies that were implemented. The success of the community–university partnership was highly dependent on the depth and breadth of collaboration, mutual support, and respect among collaborators. To advance sexual health promotion programs designed for Latinx emerging adults, we describe lessons learned for future CBPR implementation that focus on involving members of priority populations in research teams, aligning project voices, navigating internal governmental systems, creating mutual and direct benefits of partnership, and utilizing networks to enhance sustainability.","PeriodicalId":73906,"journal":{"name":"Journal of prevention and health promotion","volume":" 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135242066","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
