The purpose of this paper is to examine the effectiveness of needle exchange programs. A comprehensive review of the literature was conducted to investigate the study aim. Specific inclusion criteria included 1) studies published in English, 2) studies examining needle exchange, 3) studies conducted in the United States, 4) studies conducted between 2007 and 2017, and 5) studies focuses on heroin and injection drug users. Exclusion criteria are also included. A total of 12 studies examining needle exchange programs were found. The research team evaluated all 12 studies and emergent themes included: (1) Reduction in risk behaviors, (2) Sex differences in use and behaviors, (3) Overall perceptions of needle/syringe exchange programs, and (4) Methodological flaws and implementation. This review indicates that NEPs are effective in reducing infectious disease and improving health outcomes. Lack of consistent methods in NEP research may be an issue. In addition, community and health professional attitudes may need to be addressed to enhance effectiveness. Programs and initiatives aimed at educating community members and others may be warranted.","PeriodicalId":90204,"journal":{"name":"Journal of behavioral health","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70809888","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}

However, there has been little research comparing common correlates of PTG for military veteran versus non-military veteran samples. Using common demographic, trauma-related and coping style variables, the research question tested if there were common correlates of PTG between a military veteran versus non-military veteran sample. Methods: Using an on-line survey we recruited 153 military veterans and 99 non-military veterans to compare on the study variables. The research design was cross-sectional. Results: Controlled-for demographic (gender, race, age, highest education level) and traumatic event variables (total number of traumatic events, how long ago most powerful traumatic event) had minimal impact on PTG. Three coping scales, positive reframing, self-distraction, and alternative work, were measured. Positive reframing was positively related to PTG for both samples. Self-distraction was a positive correlate to PTG for the non-military veteran sample, while alternative work was a positive correlate for the military veteran sample. Conclusion: Further study of the motivation factors that contribute to positive reframing and alternative work could prove interesting to determine how PTG is gained. That self-distraction was a positive correlate to PTG for the non-military veteran sample suggests that such focusing away from the trauma/crisis may be helpful. Continued research on investigating common versus differentiating correlates of PTG for different samples is needed.","PeriodicalId":90204,"journal":{"name":"Journal of behavioral health","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70809966","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}

Self-monitoring modalities may facilitate these lifestyle changes. Therefore, the objective of this cross-sectional study was to examine the use of self-monitoring modalities and the association between the use of multiple self-monitoring modalities and participants population characteristics and health behaviors and status. Methods: Data was drawn for the Health Information National Trends Survey 5, Cycle 1. The study included 3,285 U.S. adults, 18 years or older. Descriptive statistics examined the use of the different types of self-monitoring modalities. Binary and ordered logistic regression analyses examined the relationship between types of self-monitoring modalities and participants population characteristics and health behaviors and status. Tableau Software was used to illustrate study results. Results: The average age of participants was 54.3 years. Smartphone/tablet users were more likely to have completed college (45.28%) compared to electronic monitoring device (EMD) users (41.06%) and online medical record users (34.04%). Among smartphone/tablet users, participants had significantly higher odds of consuming more > 4 cups of fruits/vegetables than 4 cups of fruits/vegetables compared to participants who consumed 150 minutes/week. Further research is warranted to understand how to utilize population characteristics and health behavior and status to promote the efficacy of self-monitoring.","PeriodicalId":90204,"journal":{"name":"Journal of behavioral health","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70810240","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 aim of this study was to examine the potential relationship between Asian/Asian-American immigrants length of residence in the U.S. and their leisure-time physical activity behavior. Method. Data were obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES, 20132014). Among 1,074 Non-Hispanic Asian/Asian-American participants, 541 (Female = 287, Male = 254) were > 20 years of age (M = 48.51, SD = 15.22), not born in the U.S., and they reported their physical activity data. Results. Binary logistic regression was used to estimate the odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals of reporting participation in leisure-time, moderate or vigorous physical activity (MVPA). After adjusting for age, gender, income, and education level, those living in the U.S. increased their odds of participating in MVPA. Specifically, compared to those who had been in the U.S. for 20 increased their odds of MVPA participation by 145%, 139%, 189% and 293%, respectively, with p values being marginally significant for 10-20 years p=0.06, and significant for more than 20 years, p=0.02. Conclusions. This set of observations implies that there may be positive features in American culture in terms of facilitating Asian/Asian-American adults MVPA as their length of residence in America increased. Gaining deeper insights into precisely what those features are and design targeted physical activity promotion program should be the focus of future research.","PeriodicalId":90204,"journal":{"name":"Journal of behavioral health","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70810248","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}

Methods: Participants (N= 30, mean age = 20.5 yrs) completed a 15-min walking bout on two different days one when participants walked in front of windows with a view of the outdoors (including natural sights such as trees, flowers, etc.) and one when participants walked in front of the same windows with the blinds down and no outside view. We counter-balanced the order of these conditions, and treadmill speed was matched across the two visits. Results: There were no significant differences in affect change scores (post-walk minus baseline) between outdoor view or no outdoor view conditions. Both acute bouts of walking demonstrated positive affective changes. Conclusion: While this slight modification to the environment did not appear to alter exercise-induced hedonic responses during moderate-intensity walking, future research should continue to investigate any effects of other modifications and the extent to which biological, psychological and/or environmental mechanisms may or may not interact.","PeriodicalId":90204,"journal":{"name":"Journal of behavioral health","volume":"7 1","pages":"98-102"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70809760","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}
