The Peer Relationships of Adolescents with Chronic ConditionsEagle, Samantha 01 January 2016 (has links)
The purpose of this study proposal is to examine the peer relationships of adolescents with chronic conditions, particularly as a result of spending less time at school and socializing with peers, and more time at home or in the healthcare system. Participants will be 50 adolescents with chronic conditions, 50 healthy adolescents attending regular schools, and 50 homeschooled adolescents. They will complete a variety of questionnaires relating to activity restriction, best friendship quality, number of friends, peer-group attachment, relationships with selected adults, and parent-child relationships. Information about the chronic condition and school attendance will also be collected. It is predicted that despite experiencing a high quality best friendship, adolescents with chronic conditions will have fewer friends and worse peer-group attachment. There is also expected to be an inverse relationship between both activity restriction and absenteeism and peer-group attachment and number of friends. This study proposal has several implications for healthcare practitioners, school administrators, and parents: particularly, that more should be done to integrate adolescents with chronic conditions into schools and social activities.

Caracterização psicossocial de pacientes atendidos no ambulatório de psicologia de um hospital escola / Psychosocial characterization of patients attended at the psychologyoutpatient clinic of a school hospitalTatiane Possani 24 May 2018 (has links)
O objetivo deste estudo foi caracterizar os pacientes que foram encaminhados por profissionais do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto da Universidade de São Paulo (HCFMRP-USP) ao Ambulatório de Psicologia, localizado dentro do Serviço de Psicologia da instituição. Durante o período de 2013 a 2016 o Ambulatório de Psicologia recebeu o total de 189 pacientes, que passaram pelo atendimento de triagem psicológica para a avaliação da elegibilidade do caso, ou seja, se a demanda apresentada pelo paciente e os sintomas psicológicos estavam de acordo com os critérios de inclusão estabelecidos pelo Ambulatório. Dos 110 pacientes que foram aceitos no Ambulatório, 58 estavam de acordo com os critérios de inclusão desta pesquisa. Para a caracterização sóciodemográfica utilizou-se a Entrevista de Anamnese Padrão do Ambulatório de Psicologia. Para a avaliação dos aspectos psicológicos e comportamentais utilizou-se o Inventário de Ansiedade de Beck (BAI), o Inventário de Depressão de Beck (BDI), Inventário de Sintomas de Estresse para Adultos de Lipp (ISSL), Inventário de Habilidades Sociais (IHS) e para avaliar a qualidade de vida utilizou-se o World Health Organization Quality of Life (WHOQoL-Bref). As análises foram conduzidas no software Statistical Package for the Social Science 20.0 (SPSS 20.0), foram realizados testes para verificar a existência de associação entre as variáveis sociodemográficas e os resultados obtidos nos instrumentos. A caracterização sociodemográfica identificou que 81% dos pacientes são mulheres, 46,6% possuem de 18 a 58 anos, 58,6% são procedentes de Ribeirão Preto, 58% possuem companheiro, 39,7% possuem de 10 a 14 anos de estudo e 62,% trabalham. As principais fontes de encaminhamento foram da Psicologia (22%) e das especialidades voltadas ao cuidado da saúde da mulher (19%). Em relação ao desfecho do atendimento psicológico, 54% ocorreram devido à alta por falta ou desistência do paciente. Quanto aos aspectos psicológicos e comportamentais, 46,6% apresentaram sintomas de ansiedade moderado e grave e 55,2% sintomas de depressão moderado e grave 55,2% e 89,7% possuem estresse. Houve o predomínio de déficit nas habilidades sociais nos fatores avaliados no IHS e a autossatisfação com a qualidade de vida foi avaliada como ruim por 43% dos pacientes. Esta pesquisa obteve dados relevantes para a melhoria no funcionamento do Ambulatório de Psicologia do HCFMRP/USP e por se tratar de um centro de atendimento de grande porte, que forma profissionais especializados, torna-se importante a produção e divulgação de conhecimentos na área. / The purpose of this study was to characterize those who were referred by professionals from the Clinic Hospital of the Medical School of Ribeirão Preto of the University of São Paulo (HCFMRP-USP) to the Ambulatory of Psychology, located within the Psychology Department of the institution. During the period from 2013 to 2016, the Ambulatory of Psychology received a total of 189 patients, who underwent psychological screening to assess the eligibility of the case, in other words, whether the patient\'s demand and the psychological symptoms were in agreement with the inclusion criteria established by the Ambulatory. Out of the 110 patients who were admitted to the outpatient clinic, 58 were in agreement with the inclusion criteria of this study. For the sociodemographic characterization the Interview of Standard Anamnesis of the Ambulatory of Psychology was used. For the evaluation of the psychological and behavioral aspects the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Lipp´s Inventory of Stress Symptoms for Adults (ISSL), Social Skills Inventory (IHS) were used, and to evaluate the quality of life the World Health Organization of Life (WHOQoL-Bref) was used. The analyzes were conducted in the Statistical Package for Social Science 20.0 (SPSS 20.0) software, and tests were carried out to verify the existence of an association between sociodemographic variables and the results obtained in the instruments. The sociodemographic characterization identified that 81% of the patients are women, 46.6% are 18 to 58 years old, 58.6% are from Ribeirão Preto, 58% have a partner, 39.7% have 10 to 14 years of study and 62,% work. The main sources of referrals were from Psychology (22%) and specialties focused on women\'s healthcare (19%). Regarding to the outcome of psychological care, 54% occurred because of discharge due to lacks or patient\'s abandonment. Concerning the psychological and behavioral factors, 46.6% had symptoms of moderate and severe anxiety and 55.2% had moderate and severe depression symptoms, 55.2% and 89.7% had stress. There was an absolute predominance of deficit in social skills factors evaluated in the IHS, and self-satisfaction with quality of life was evaluated as \'poor\' by 43% of the patients. This research obtained relevant data for the improvement in the functioning of the Ambulatory of Psychology of HCFMRP/USP and because it is a large service center, which forms specialized professionals, it becomes important to produce and disseminate knowledge in the area.

A Couples-Based Team Approach to Prophylactic Bilateral Mastectomy and Social DisapprovalJanuary 2018 (has links)
abstract: Prophylactic bilateral mastectomy (PBM) is the current recommended course of action for women with increased genetic risk for breast and ovarian cancer. Nevertheless, many receive negative feedback from family and friends surrounding the decision to undergo this surgery because they do not have cancer when the decision is made; this results in a limited support network for coping with their PBM. Low social support is associated with depression, negativity, and anxiety. Women who had a PBM, were currently undergoing or had completed reconstruction, and were in a committed romantic relationship at the time of the surgery were surveyed (N = 53). The hypotheses that women who received negative feedback about their decision to have a PBM would have poorer individual well-being, and that the use of a couples-based team approach would moderate these adverse effects were tested. Data analyses support the hypotheses that women in couples taking a team approach to PBM have better individual well-being. The effects of negative feedback from others about the decision to undergo a PBM on personal mental health were moderated by use of a couples-based team approach. Women who received negative feedback from multiple sources had better outcomes if they used a couples-based team approach. Many women have a preventative oophorectomy around the same time as their PBM. Menopause is associated with side effects such as increased vasomotor symptoms and decreased sexual functioning. The hypothesis that surgical menopause is related to declines in sexual satisfaction following PBM was also tested. Regression analysis revealed no relationship. This study indicates that women who experience social disapproval and lack collaborative support from their significant other may be at increased risk for poor individual well-being following PBM. / Dissertation/Thesis / Masters Thesis Psychology 2018

Stressed Out and Fed Up: The Effect of Stress on Maternal Feeding Behaviors and the Moderating Role of Executive FunctioningMendiola, Isabel 01 January 2018 (has links)
Stress is associated with a range of unhealthy eating habits. However, no previous studies have used experimental design to take an intergenerational perspective in the examination of how stress may influence parental feeding behavior, nor have they examined potential protective factors. The current study tests the effects of stress on maternal feeding behaviors and explores the potential protective role of maternal executive functioning (EF). We manipulated maternal stress with the Trier Social Stress Task (TSST) in a community sample mothers (N = 61, Mage = 33.45 years). We measured maternal EF with a series of computerized tasks. Maternal feeding behavior was observationally coded using standardized procedures. Results indicate a main effect of stress on controlling feeding styles. Furthermore, this effect of stress on controlling feeding behaviors is ameliorated among mothers with higher levels of EF. Results suggest potential factors to be considered in the treatment and prevention of diet-related illnesses.
