Abstract

Objective: This descriptive study aimed to determine the diabetes prevention behaviors based on the health belief model among high-risk individuals.Methods: 220 randomly selected patients at risk of type II diabetes completed a 65-item questionnaire based on the constructs of the health belief model. Data analyzed by SPSS.Results: The mean score of knowledge among responders was 5.54+2.60, which indicated that 50.36% of the participants had gained the maximum score of knowledge. The results indicated that the constructs of the health belief model determined 19% of the variance in type II diabetes prevention behaviors.  Perceived barriers, perceived self-efficacy, and knowledge were the significant positive predictors of diabetes prevention behaviors. Based on the results, single respondents had higher knowledge levels, higher perceived severity, and lower perceived barriers compared to married ones. In addition, a significant relationship was observed between age, economic status, and education level and some constructs of the health belief model.Conclusion: The results indicated that the high-risk patients obtained moderate mean scores in type II diabetes prevention behaviors. These results could help improve educational programs with regard to beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors in order to promote type II diabetes prevention and self-care behaviors among at-risk populations, eventually enhancing their quality of life.

Abstract

Mental-health-related social stigma prevents youth from seeking timely help for mental health problems. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a pilot arts intervention to reduce such stigma among college youth in India. The intervention included three sessions, focused on i) mental health education, ii) developing mental-health-themed art, and iii) a mental-health-themed festival to display art for an invited audience. We assessed feasibility through creation of student-generated art and acceptability in post-intervention surveys and video recordings. The intervention was completed by 371 participants who created 86 works of art (paintings, puppet-shows, drama, dance, and poetry), which was displayed to 434 audience members at uniting hearts and minds: a festival of creative expressions on mental health. Participants self-reported understanding causes and symptoms of mental health problems, interpreting experiences and expressed empathy (n = 194). Our pilot intervention engaged youth, showing potential to reduce mental-health-related stigma and to address feasibility issues related to reaching all colleges uniformly.

Abstract

The parent-adolescent relationship is an essential part of growing up and it is the key determinant of an adolescent’s growth. An adolescent is a stage of life which is unique as it is the phase for personality development. The nature of the relationship with their families during the adolescence stage determines their character.  The parental connection including the right kind of parenting style and inter-communication determine their growth. Previous studies have highlighted the relationship between parent-adolescents communication and the impact on adolescents’ psychological well-being.  However, the findings have not been conclusive.  In view of this, the current research aimed at assessing the level of parent-adolescent communication and the impact on adolescents’ self-esteem and the perceived stress inclusive of comparing differences between genders in Malaysia. The study was conducted using a quantitative research method through an online survey. The findings proved there is a significant relationship between parent-adolescent communication and the impact on self-esteem as well as stress levels among adolescents, where positive communication with parents, resulted in better self-esteem and lower levels of stress. Further, it was proven that female adolescents had lower self-esteem and higher stress compared to male adolescents. The study ends with a recommendation for further research.

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the extent to which health practitioners in Cross River State, Nigeria, use social media for patient care and to assess the barriers militating against its liberal use for patient care. The study adopted the cross-sectional survey design and used 550 respondents selected through the cluster, simple random and purposive sampling techniques, from selected secondary and tertiary health facilities. Furthermore, quantitative and qualitative methods involving the questionnaire and key informant interview respectively were used to elicit information from respondents. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics while content analysis was used to handle qualitative data. The result of data analysis revealed that health practitioners in Cross River State, Nigeria, do social media use for patient care very minimally and this is attributed to a wide range of factors, including the absence of a clear-cut regulatory framework governing social media use in health care delivery, lack of institutionally provided resources for social media use etc. The study thus recommends that healthcare administrators must, as a matter of necessity, mainstream social media use into health care practice by flexible guidelines, regulations, and materials that would make social media use for patient care desirable by health practitioners in Nigeria.

Abstract

Mattering is the sense that one matters to others, and it is one of the most significant protective factors against depression and anxiety. To date, most studies of mattering have established that it is contingent upon interpersonal factors, such as how one socializes with others and perceives how others value them; little did we study any internal psychological trait that might help in developing better mattering. In the light of that, this current study aims to investigate whether a personality disposition called perfectionism plays a significant role in predicting the sense of mattering. The role of two major elements of perfectionism, namely evaluative concern perfectionism (ECP) and personal standard perfectionism (PSP) was investigated. ECP was considered as the predictor due to the nature of its contingency upon one’s perception of others’ standard of acceptance, while PSP was included as a moderator because the level of personal standard might determine how ECP predicts the sense of mattering. Participants were purposively recruited to make sure that they were members of Generation-Z (Gen-Z). As many as 130 undergraduate students aged 18 to 24 years old were asked to respond to the subscales of the Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale and the Interpersonal Mattering Scale through an online survey. The data was analyzed with a help of the software of PROCESS Macro for bootstrapping method with 95% confidence interval and 5000 samplings, and the results revealed that when PSP is at its highest levels, the link between ECP and mattering is no longer significant.

Abstract

Social media platforms and applications are increasing exponentially and has become a part of life for everyone. It is widely used by people to connect with large numbers of people without investing much time and effort. This led to the emergence of a new term, ‘sharenting’ which refers to parents sharing their children’s information on social media. The trend of sharenting is very predominant and has raised a lot of concerns in the western countries, but in Malaysia there is still a lack of adequate knowledge on this trend. Past research on this topic mainly focuses on the usage frequency, content and consequences of sharenting in Western countries. However, there is a dearth of literature on the intention and motivation of Malaysian parents’ inclination to this trend. In view of this, the current study employed a qualitative approach in exploring Malaysian parents’ intention and motivation of sharing children’s information on social media through the framework of Bandura’s social learning theory. The study targeted parents in Malaysia aged between 20 to 40 who often share their children’s information on social media. The research was conducted through one-to-one interviews and the findings from the interviews were analyzed using a thematic approach. This research is significant as it provides knowledge on the trend of sharenting of Malaysian parents. The paper ends with recommendation for further future research.

Abstract

Relationship satisfaction is one of major component of mental health that often ignored by mental health practiticoners in general due to cultural reasons. Moreover, because numerous studies had indicated that when individuals have insecure attachment styles (insecurity in loving someone else), they would never develop any relationship satisfaction with anyone, including friends, spouses, parents, children, ans relatives. Th COVID-19 pandemic had triggered different social patterns among individuals all over the world, and studies during the pandemic indicated the significance of some factors such as the sense of mattering and perceived life satisfaction to the mental health of the general adults. Our references led us to hypothesize that the interpersonal mattering significantly predicts relationship satisfaction, mediated by life satisfaction, under the condition of low secure attachment style. Randomly selected 405 adults from Kuala Lumpur and Selangor, Malaysia, were financially compensated to complete the scales of interpersonal mattering, satisfaction with life, secure attachment style section of MOAS, and relationship satisfaction index. The results indicated that the mediation of life satisfaction on the link between mattering and relationship satisfaction was only significant when the level of secure attachment style is at the low and moderate levels. Further implications, limitations, and suggestions are discussed
