This article aims to contribute to recent discussions on pedagogy of pain in world language education. Drawing on the limitations of language to represent and express trauma and pain, we foreground the value of pedagogies at the intersection of language, art, and trauma. It is our contention that a linguistic perspective in and of itself is…

Objectives: This manuscript describes the rationale and protocol for an on-line, school-based randomised controlled trial of "Projecte d'Educació Postural a l'Escola" (Postural Education in School Project) (PEPE) which aims to prevent non-specific low back pain and promote healthy postural habits in children. The study will examine the…

Too often, the racial diversity conversation is perceived as an issue for people of color rather than one that also profoundly impacts White people. The power of whiteness often reflects its invisibility, particularly embedded into the culture of Christian colleges. This study was a hermeneutic phenomenology of diversity professionals addressing…

Current literature lacks explication of how traditional grounded theory and mixed methods--grounded theory (MM-GT) are similar/different and specific explication of how to construct MM-GT designs--our purpose is to do this. We illustrate the design process using a published study. Exploratory Phase 1 involves creation of a formative-theoretical…

The purpose of this study was to: 1) examine existing interprofessional pain management curricula in a DPT and MOT program by mapping pain subject matter to the IASP interprofessional content to determine gaps, vertical and horizontal coherence and integration 2) evaluate pain knowledge and attitudes early and late curriculum within the current…

Pain is an under-recognized health concern for young people and can significantly impact physical, social, and psychological health. This article presents a three-part strategy to integrate evidence-based education about pain and pain management into health and physical education classes.

Purpose: To compare the effects of a single bout of eccentric cycling (ECC) and eccentric cycling with blood flow restriction (ECC[subscript BFR]) on the changes in cardio-metabolic demand and indirect markers of muscle damage in healthy men. Method: Twenty-one young men (24.0 ± 3.2 y) were randomly allocated in two groups to perform a 30-min…

The use of strategies to assure better post-effort recovery is frequent in sports settings. There are several interventions available for exercise induced muscle damage recovery, but cold-water immersion (CWI) stands out among them. The effects of CWI are unclear in the literature and, although the number of street runners has been growing, there…

Goniometry is commonly used to evaluate joint range of motion (ROM). The most widespread method, a manual universal goniometer (UG), is considered time-consuming and difficult to handle. The digital goniometer EasyAngle (EA) was developed to improve and simplify the evaluation of ROM. This study aimed to evaluate the reliability and validity of EA…

Background: Case studies are often used to supplement lecture material to students of psychology. Recent research on the use of online support forums has been shown to be more effective in increasing student attainment of course learning objectives than the use of case studies. Objective: The current research replicated two studies on the use of…

Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) has been used by patients with acquired expressive communication disorders as an alternative to natural speech. The use of symbols to express pain, which is intangible, is challenging because designing a series of comprehensible symbols to represent personal experiences such as pain is not…

Objective: The current study examined the mediating role of distress tolerance on the association between pain-related disability and addiction to opioids, past-month opioid use, and risky opioid use among an ethno-racially diverse sample of young adults with current pain. Methods: Participants were 141 undergraduate college students (78.7%…

Objective: We examine role of ACEs and pathways to risk of opioid misuse among young adults. Participants and Methods: A cross-sectional survey of validated measures of ACEs, risk of opioid misuse, and health conditions with a sample of 1,402 students from a large public university followed by multivariate logistic regression and pathway analysis.…

Background: Pediatric programs focused on treating chronic pain often do not include an educational liaison (EL) to coordinate services between the patient's medical home and school. As chronic pain in youth can have deleterious effects on school functioning, collaboration between the medical home and the school system are needed to assure these…

Purpose: What is happening in the perceived world of young people who have non-suicidal self-injury? The answer to this question explains many quantitative research findings in the field of NSSI. The current qualitative research design is Husserl's descriptive phenomenology. Design/methodology/approach: The participants included 17-29-year-old…
