Abstract B80: Perceived control over health and history of mammography screening in Hispanic/Latino women living in the Northeast United States
Conclusions: Low to moderate versus high levels of perceived control over health contribute to lower levels of mammography screening according to guidelines. Identifying ways to address perceived control over health will be critical to increasing mammography screening adherence in this under-resourced population.Citation Format: Beth A.

Attitudes toward anticoagulant treatment among nonvalvular atrial fibrillation patients at high risk of stroke and low risk of bleed
Conclusion: Results suggest that many AF patients who are at high risk of stroke but at low risk of bleed may not be receiving AC due to potentially inaccurate beliefs about risk. This study also found that AF patients place trust in physicians above other factors such as cost when making treatment decisions. Increased education of patients by physicians on the risks and benefits may be a simple strategy to improve outcomes.

Measuring mental music: Comparing retrospective and experience sampling methods for assessing musical imagery.
Musical imagery—hearing music in your mind that isn’t playing in the environment—has been investigated using both retrospective methods (self-report scales of typical experiences) and in vivo methods (assessing inner music as it happens in daily life). But because musical imagery is often fleeting and on the fringe of conscious attention, retrospective self-report measures of inner music might correspond poorly with people’s actual experience of inner music. The present research thus compared reports from a retrospective measure of musical imagery (the Involuntary Musical Imagery Scale) and a week of intensive expe...

Who is responsible for educational outcomes? Responsibility ascriptions for educational outcomes in a sample of Italian teachers, parents, and students
Publication date: January 2018 Source:Learning and Individual Differences, Volume 61 Author(s): Maria Cristina Matteucci, Kerstin Helker Teachers', parents' and students' beliefs about their reciprocal roles and responsibilities at school are crucial if responsibility for educational process and outcomes is to be effectively shared. Results of previous research, however, indicate that their perspectives on responsibility do not completely overlap. By investigating 235 students', 35 teachers' and 175 parents' assignment of responsibility to themselves or to others at an Italian junior-high in parallel with a high school, t...

Group-based cognitive behavioral therapy program for improving poor sleep quality and quality of life in people with epilepsy: A pilot study.
Abstract Sleep difficulties are commonly reported by patients with epilepsy and can have a detrimental impact on overall quality of life. The purpose of this pilot study was to assess the efficacy of a psychotherapeutic approach, namely Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), in improving sleep quality in patients with epilepsy. Twenty outpatients with epilepsy who reported poor sleep quality were randomized to either a control or CBT-I treatment group, which involved four group-based CBT-I sessions, delivered on a weekly basis. In addition to completing a range of standardized measures related to sleep...

Stakeholder views of the practical and cultural barriers to epilepsy care in Uganda.
CONCLUSIONS: Based on these findings, there are four critical interventions that should be considered for improving epilepsy care in Uganda: the creation of dedicated epilepsy clinics, infrastructure strengthening to address medication stock-outs, community outreach programs for sensitization, and collaboration between biomedical providers and traditional healers. This article is part of the Special Issue "The Intersection of Culture, Resources, and Disease: Epilepsy Care in Uganda". PMID: 32758404 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

17.1 Examining the Impact of COVID-19 on Adolescents With Eating Disorders
There is a noticeable lack of evidence regarding the impact of COVID-19 and the associated lockdown on young people with eating disorders (EDs). The goals of this study were to: 1) examine characteristics of adolescents presenting for ED assessment since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic; 2) compare adolescents presenting for ED assessment since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic to those that presented for assessment 1 year previously; and 3) examine implications of the pandemic on the system of care.

Depression and labor supply: Evidence from the Netherlands
Econ Hum Biol. 2022 Jan 3;45:101103. doi: 10.1016/j.ehb.2021.101103. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe estimate the relationship between depression and labor-market outcomes using data from the Longitudinal Internet studies for the Social Sciences (LISS) panel (2008 - 2018) from the Netherlands. The paper provides three main findings. First, depression is not associated with women's labor market participation, but it is associated with their likelihood of having paid employment (conditional on being in the labor force). Second, depression is associated with men's labor force participation, likelihood of having paid employme...
