Van Wasshenova, Emily; Boardley, Debra; Geers, Andrew; Tull, Matthew; Steiner, Victoria – American Journal of Health Education, 2023
Background: Affective associations have been shown to predict physical activity, but interventions designed to manipulate affective associations are limited. Purpose: To increase physical activity through manipulation of affective associations toward physical activity using the values component from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in…

Derganc, Jure; Gomišcek, Gregor – Advances in Physiology Education, 2021
Electrocardiography (ECG) is one of the most widely used methods in clinical diagnosis. Here we describe an experimental approach that offers hands-on learning of its basic principles. An experimental model that consists of a rubber foil with a low electrical conductivity and a DC power unit is used to simulate the body and the electric dipole of…

Warren, Jami L.; Clancy, Karen; Brady, Christy F.; Rump, Kendall; New-Oglesby, Tayla – Journal of Communication Pedagogy, 2021
Patients that suffer from invisible chronic illness (ICI) such as autoimmune conditions, neurological conditions, and gastrointestinal problems often struggle to obtain a proper medical diagnosis due to a lack of objective indicators to help health-care providers diagnose patients with ICIs. Thus, researchers conducted interviews with 21…

DeHondt, Benjamin G.; Madi, Samar A.; Drignei, Dorin; Buchan, Duncan S.; Brown, Elise C. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2023
Identification of cardiometabolic risk (CMR) in U.S. younger population by assessing muscular strength via handgrip (HG) dynamometry may aid in prevention efforts. Currently, no nationally representative HG cut-points are available for identifying increased CMR in U.S. adolescents or young adults. In this study, we propose normalized grip strength…

Serpas, Dylan G.; García, James J.; Arellano-Morales, Leticia – Journal of American College Health, 2022
Objective: Racial/ethnic minorities experience disproportionately greater risk to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). This study examined racial/ethnic discrimination--as a psychosocial stressor--in a path model and its associations with CVD health risk factors among undergraduate students of color (SoC). Participants: The sample included 404 SoC…

Anna Fuchs; Erika Lunkenheimer; Frances M. Lobo – Grantee Submission, 2021
Parent-child synchrony of respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) varies by risk, but novel approaches are needed to capture individual contributions to synchrony. Multilevel state-trait modeling was applied to examine how parental psychological distress and parent and child average RSA during challenge (reflecting individual regulatory capacities)…

Brosig, Cheryl L.; Stoiber, Karen C.; Landry, Kyle K.; Ruehl, Christie A.; Bella, Zachary A. – School Psychology, 2022
This article presents data on Coronavirus disease (COVID-19)-related learning, health, and mental health concerns of 134 families of children with heart disease (HD), the most common birth defect, who are followed by a unique hospital-based Educational Achievement Partnership Program (EAPP) designed to serve as a liaison across the family, the…

Horn, Margaux A. – Advances in Physiology Education, 2023
The current student body will, by and large, seek online resources to supplement their learning. However, resources that are freely available online vary in accuracy and quality, and the vast majority rely on passive learning. Therefore, there is a need for interactive physiology teaching resources that facilitate application of knowledge, that…

Pereira, Rafaela Catelan Martins; Apis, Aline; dos Santos, Thamires Rosa; de Avó, Lucimar Retto da Silva; Pilotto, Rui Fernando; Germano, Carla Maria Ramos; Melo, Débora Gusmão – Journal of Intellectual Disabilities, 2023
This cross-sectional and descriptive study examined the family quality of life (FQoL) among 72 Brazilian families who have children with Williams syndrome, a rare genetic disorder in which most individuals have an intellectual disability, usually mild. Data were collected using sociodemographic and clinical data forms and the Beach Center FQoL…

BoAe Im; HyunSoo Oh; SooHyun Kim; HyeSun Jeong; WhaSook Seo – Health Education & Behavior, 2024
Rheumatic diseases are known to be associated with the development of metabolic syndrome, which increases mortality rates due to cardiovascular complications. Although a variety of self-management programs for rheumatic diseases have been developed, few have concentrated on metabolic syndrome. This study aimed to develop and verify a blended (a…

Oh, Minsuk; Ylitalo, Kelly R. – American Journal of Health Education, 2023
Background: The role of physical activity (PA) in mitigating fall risk among adults with cardiovascular disease (CVD) is unclear. Purpose: We examined the associations of CVD-PA phenotypes with falls. Methods: Adults [greater than or equal to] 45 years (n = 295,282; N = 130,103,093) from the 2018 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System who…

Murthy, Sumithra; Hsieh, Kelly – Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2021
Adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) are at a greater risk of developing high cholesterol and cardiovascular disease. We examined whether physical inactivity, obesity, and diabetes were predictive of reported high cholesterol and whether there were any mediating effects of diabetes on the relationship between obesity and…

Lee, Amanda N.; Muller, Stephanie; McDermott, Kelly – COABE Journal: The Resource for Adult Education, 2021
This study aimed to increase rates of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training and bystander response to sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) by critically exploring and putting into practice different learning methods for formerly incarcerated adult learners at the Delancey Street Foundation. Four classes with n = 31 multi-ethnic male students were…
