Pediatric Caregiver Interventions: A Scoping Review
Full text linkCaregivers are an integral component in pediatric healthcare service delivery. Caregiver education/interventions and health beliefs vary greatly, as do barriers and facilitators, including their accessibility, quality, and effectiveness. A family-centered care approach, defined as utilizing the family as a formal member, resource, and collaborator in the care team, has been found to be beneficial and contribute to positive health and wellbeing outcomes for caregivers, their child, and the family unit as a whole. A scoping review was conducted to investigate the utilization and impacts of caregiver education/interventions on their engagement in the therapeutic process. The results of this review will be used to develop and implement a caregiver resource program at an outpatient pediatric occupational therapy clinic with the aim of measuring outcomes such as caregiver engagement, competency, self-efficacy, and health literacy
Social Media and Depression in College Students
Full text linkWhile studies suggest social media use may increase the risk of poor mental health, few studies have examined how the ways in which college students use social media may play a role in this risk. A prospective cohort study (N=586) of college students who own iPhones at a higher education institution in the northeast US was conducted with five follow-up visits in October 2021 through March 2022. Social media uses were assessed using the Social Networking Sites Usage & Needs Scale, measuring five different domains: diversion, cognitive, affective, personal integration, and social integration. Time lagged, generalized estimating equations (GEE) models were used to examine the association between each domain score and subsequent depression while controlling for sexual and gender identity, age, race/ethnicity, social status, social support, and sleep problems. Median (IQR) domain scores at baseline were 15 (14-17) for diversion, 16 (15-17) for cognitive, 13 (10-16) for affective, 13 (11-15) for personal integration, and 20 (18-21) for social integration. Several domains were associated with increased relative risk of depression, including diversion: 1.05 (95%CI: 1.02,1.07), personal integration: 1.02 (95%CI: 1.00,1.04), and social integration: 1.02 (95%CI: 1.00,1.05). Conclusions suggest that mental health harms of social media may be dependent upon how it is used. Those using social media for cognitive or affective needs may be at lower risk for depression than for other needs
