One promising mechanism involves altered intrinsic connectivity patterns in brain networks supporting emotion processing, including within the cognitive control network (CCN). The current preliminary study used resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to examine whether altered CCN connectivity patterns are a brain-based mechanism of intergenerational risk for depression. We tested whether CCN connectivity patterns (1) differentiated mothers with and without recurrent MDD, (2) differentiated their high-risk (HR) and low-risk (LR) daughters, and (3) served as prospective predictors of daughters’ depressive symptoms over a multi-wave follow-up. Participants were 56 mother–daughter pairs who completed a resting state fMRI scan. Mothers with, versus without, a history of MDD exhibited reduced connectivity between the CCN and other regions within the CCN, such as the middle frontal gyrus and dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (ACC). Reduced connectivity between the CCN and dorsal ACC was also observed in HR, relative to LR, daughters, correlated significantly among mothers and daughters, and associated with higher depression symptoms in daughters across 18 months. Reduced connectivity within the CCN may constitute one brain-based marker to further investigate as a target for prevention to attenuate the intergenerational transmission of depression.

This study examined AI/AN college students’ attitudes regarding harm-reduction (HR) and abstinence-only (AO) intervention strategies to overcome problems with alcohol, including perceived social support for using these strategies. Method: Participants were AI/AN college students who consumed alcohol (N = 159) and completed a single in-person data collection session. Separate analyses of covariance were conducted to examine perceived effectiveness and self-efficacy for the intervention strategies and perceived support of friends and family. Results: No difference in perceived effectiveness was found, while self-efficacy was higher for HR than AO for both hazardously and nonhazardously drinking groups. Likewise, participants perceived greater social support for HR than AO strategies, even from friends or family who are abstinent, and no differences were found between hazardous and nonhazardous drinking groups in perceived support for these interventions. Conclusions: AI/AN students who drink perceived no difference in effectiveness between HR and AO strategies and were more confident in their abilities to utilize HR strategies over AO. Regardless of drinking status, participants perceived they would have greater social support for HR compared with AO strategies from friends and family. The findings indicate that HR intervention strategies may be a socially valid intervention option for AI/AN college students.

However, a lack of theoretical framework, the diversity of social prescribing interventions and outcome measures, a lack of ongoing resources to provide services equitably and a lack of coordinated research agenda make it challenging for practitioners to know how best to put social prescribing into practice. This paper summarises perspectives from 29 UK and Australian authors and sets a course for future social prescribing implementation in four key areas: theory, measurement, resourcing and equity, and discovery (big questions on the research agenda). Eight recommendations are made: (1) multilevel or systems theory frameworks should inform programme design and implementation; (2) methods should be developed in collaboration with participants and service providers; (3) a core set of outcome measures should be developed and complemented by framework-specific measures; (4) factors at multiple levels should be included to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the experience and value of social prescribing; (5) funding models should ensure that community sector organisations providing the programmes and services are well supported; (6) social prescribing stakeholders could advocate for equitable funding through dialogue and knowledge translation; (7) future research could focus on understanding barriers and enablers of engagement in social prescribing in marginalised populations; and (8) future research should focus on link workers’ and community workers’ experiences of social prescribing. Emphasising health equity and asset-based community development, our perspective positions social prescribing not merely as a response to individual health needs but as a catalyst for a broader societal transformation.

McLaughlin Volume Vol. 3 Issue No. 9 Publisher Nature Publishing Group (Springer Nature) Journal Name Nature Mental Health Publication Date 2025 ISBN 27316076 Language English Access Open Access Abstract In the version of article initially published, some data underlying the models presented in the paper were incorrectly transposed due to a file conversion error. This affected 22 participants’ 16-year post-Trier cortisol values, and thus their reactivity scores. All other data, including 12-year cortisol reactivity values, 12- and 16-year psychopathology values and 12- and 16-year pre-ejection period (PEP) values were unaffected. The analyses were repeated with the original code and updated data. The primary findings of the indirect effect of institutional deprivation on P at 16 years through blunted cortisol reactivity at 12 years, and of institutional deprivation on EXT at 16 years through blunted PEP reactivity at 12 years, were substantively no different from the original results. However, some within-time and longitudinal associations differed from the original analyses. First, in the deprivation models, the within-time associations between cortisol reactivity and INT and EXT at 16 years were no longer significant; instead, a within-time association between higher P and more blunted cortisol reactivity at 16 years was observed, similar to what was observed at 12 years. Second, in the cortisol models, there was a new longitudinal association between higher INT at 12 years and elevated cortisol reactivity at 16 years which was not previously observed. In the intervention models, a new single parameter emerged as significant, which was the within-time association between higher P and more blunted cortisol reactivity at 16 years (similar to the deprivation model above). Minor differences to the results from the sensitivity analyses were noted, with the overall pattern of indirect effects being consistent with the original models (see updated Supplementary Information in the article). The first paragraph of the Results “Cortisol reactivity as a mediator of early deprivation” and “Intervention effects” sections have been revised, the fourth paragraph of the Discussion has been revised, Figs. 1–3 and Supplementary Figs. 1, 2 were revised. Separately, the Supplementary Methods have been revised to update reporting of cortisol values from µg/dl to nmol/L. For comparison, the unaltered figures, text and Supplementary Information are available as Supplementary Information alongside the online version of this amendment.

In the first part of the book, Rosenberg shares his experience trying to warn the deans of the University of British Columbia’s Faculty of Medicine about the dangers of the anti-Zionist antisemitism that was unleashed by students and faculty. This ends with his public resignation after UBC failed to acknowledge these issues or even that antisemitism existed there. He later met with public figures, including the premier of his province and his Member of Parliament, and he testified in Ottawa, before the House of Commons Standing Committee on Justice, warning about the dangers that delegitimization, demonization and use of double standards against Israel and diaspora Jewry pose to Jews and to society as a whole. The second part of the book includes educational essays that try to fill gaps in people’s knowledge and understanding of Zionism, the Arab-Israeli conflict, Palestinian nationalism and the ideologies that continue to fuel the conflict. He also answers questions about who the Jews are, what they believe and he addresses the problem of anti-Zionist Jews. The third part of the book, “The Seven-Front Diaspora War,” answers the question: “Can the whole world be wrong?” It outlines the systemic anti-Israel and often antisemitic biases in the academy, the UN, NGOs, healthcare, the clergy, mainstream media and publishing. In the final part of the book, he shares his experiences from a medical mission to Israel in March 2024, months after the massacre, as well as reflections about being Jewish and about the future.

Managed alcohol programs (MAPs) are interventions that address alcohol use and homelessness by providing housing and regulated doses of alcohol. While research has shown MAPs to be beneficial, little is known about their implementation. Our paper addresses this gap by exploring the barriers and facilitators to implementing a MAP for Indigenous men in Montreal, Canada. Methods The study follows a qualitative approach. Semi-structured and informal interviews along with questionnaires were conducted with the program’s residents, staff and medical team members. The collected data were thematically analyzed. Results Participants identified barriers including resistance to adhering to the individualized alcohol plan, hostile behaviours and conflicts, loss of purpose and boredom, and staff workload and turnover. The facilitators reported were teamwork, flexibility, cultural safety, and trusting relationships. Conclusion Our findings about certain barriers, particularly hostile behaviours and conflicts, and staff workload and turnover, remain undocumented in the literature. Certain facilitators including flexibility, trusting relationships, and cultural safety merit further exploration. In offering a detailed description of the implementation of a MAP, we hope to inform policies supporting the dissemination of similar programs in other contexts.

Methods: This paper systematically explores grassroots barriers and potential solutions for Indigenous young people to engage and use health (including mental health) services. Elder-governed yarns were conducted via Zoom with 44 representative Victorian Aboriginal Elders, Healers, Senior and Junior people involved in the health and wellbeing of the Victorian Aboriginal community. These yarns were analyzed through an innovative, constructivist, multi-perspectival discursive grounded theory method. Results: Five pre-eminent themes emerged: the socio-economic barriers to services, the ongoing effects of colonization, disconnection and isolation from community and Country, pressures in society of living in two worlds and lack of cultural safety and racism. Detailed and rich day-to-day barriers and possible grassroots solutions were proffered. Conclusions: The analyzed yarns provide important detail about everyday barriers Indigenous peoples face in healthcare services and potential ways forward to improve the situation for Indigenous young people and their kinship networks.

Drawing upon theoretical and historical perspectives on vicarious trauma and social identity, we assess whether exposure to images of racialized police violence affects Black and White Americans’ cardiovascular reactivity and concerns about being victimized by police brutality. Method: Black (N = 77) and White (N = 89) Americans were exposed to view either five images of police violence targeting Black Americans or five control images depicting car-accident-related harm affecting Black Americans. Participants prepared and delivered a speech about the depictions and answered self-reported measures while their cardiovascular activity was recorded. Results: Significant Condition × Timepoint interactions demonstrated that exposure to police brutality images (as compared to control images) increased sympathetic reactivity on the preejection period and heart rate during the speech delivery and heart rate during speech preparation. A significant Condition × Participant Race interaction indicated that exposure to police brutality images (as compared to control images) increased parasympathetic withdrawal (reduced respiratory sinus arrhythmia) among Black (but not White) participants. A significant Condition × Participant Race interaction revealed that police brutality images (as compared to control images) increased Black (but not White) participants’ concerns about personally being victimized by police brutality. Conclusions: Images of police violence activate stress responses for Black and White Americans, with potential disproportionate effects for Black Americans. Implications include well-being following exposure to vicarious racial trauma and consideration for how and when to share such images.

M. Callaghan, Andrea LaMarre, Joanna Semlyen Volume Vol. 12 Issue No. 1 Publisher American Psychological Association Journal Name Qualitative Psychology Publication Date 2025 ISBN 23263601 Language English Access Open Access Abstract Although peer review is one of the central pillars of academic publishing, qualitative researchers’ experiences of this process have been largely overlooked. Existing research and commentary have focused on peer reviewers’ comments on qualitative articles, which are often described as indicative of a quantitative mindset or hostility to nonpositivist qualitative research. We extend this literature by focusing on qualitative researchers’ experiences of methodologically incongruent reviewer and editor comments—comments that are incommensurate with the conceptual foundations of the reviewed research. Qualitative researchers (N = 163) from a range of health and social science disciplines, including psychology, responded to a brief qualitative survey. Most contributors reported that peer reviewers and editors universalized the assumptions and expectations of postpositivist research and reporting. Some also reported that peer reviewers and editors universalized the norms and values particular to specific qualitative approaches. Contributors were concerned that peer reviewers often accept review invitations when they lack relevant methodological expertise and editors often select peer reviewers without such expertise. In response to methodologically incongruent comments, many contributors described a process of initially “pushing back” and explaining why these comments were incongruent with their research. When this educative approach was unsuccessful, some knowingly compromised the methodological integrity of their research and acquiesced to reviewer and editor requests. Earlier career researchers especially highlighted the powerlessness they felt in the peer review process in the context of a “publish or perish” academic climate. We end by outlining contributors’ recommendations for improving the methodological integrity of the peer review of qualitative research.

This study examined the association of belief in a BV with alcohol use among reservation-dwelling AI adults with a substance use problem. Methods Participants (n = 141) who drank alcohol in the past 90 days were selected from a larger AI sample who self-identified as having a substance use problem. Moderated-mediation analyses examined whether belief in a BV was positively associated with alcohol- and substance use-related consequences and whether self-efficacy and craving mediated the association of belief in a BV with alcohol use. Results Among participants who reported using alcohol but not hard drugs (e.g., methamphetamine, opioids), greater belief in a BV was associated with more drinking days, which in turn was associated with greater alcohol-related consequences. Among participants who used alcohol only, belief in a BV was also significantly associated with greater craving, and in turn with more drinking days. Among individuals who used both alcohol and hard drugs, greater belief in a BV was associated with fewer drinking days, but was not significantly associated with substance use-related consequences. No association was found between belief in a BV and self-efficacy to avoid alcohol or drug use. Conclusions Among individuals who use only alcohol, belief in a BV may contribute to more drinking days and greater alcohol-related consequences through its association with greater craving. This study provides further evidence of the potential harm of internalizing the belief that being AIAN contributes to the risk for alcohol problems, a notion that lacks scientific evidence despite decades of research. The findings highlight the importance of combating societal myths regarding AIAN peoples and the internalization of these stereotypes.

Objective To evaluate the association between incident benzodiazepine or antipsychotic use and 180-day mortality among nursing home residents with ADRD enrolled in hospice. Design, Setting, and Participants This retrospective case-control study used national Medicare claims and Minimum Data Set assessments from July 1, 2014, to September 30, 2018, from US nursing homes providing long-term care. Residents with ADRD newly enrolled in hospice who had no benzodiazepine or antipsychotic use in the prior 6 months were included. Incident users were matched 1:1 to nonusers on enrollment timing, age, sex, comorbidity, cognitive function, and baseline central nervous system medication use. Follow-up was 180 days from hospice enrollment. Analyses were performed from March 2023 to December 2024. Exposures Initiation of benzodiazepine or antipsychotic use during hospice, with no fills of the respective medication class in the prior 6 months. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was all-cause mortality within 180 days of hospice enrollment. Hazard ratios (HRs) were estimated using Cox proportional hazards regression models adjusting for demographic, clinical, and hospice-level characteristics. Sensitivity analyses included propensity score–weighted models and models accounting for cumulative exposure. Results Among 139 103 participants (105 372 [75.8%] female; mean [SD] age, 87.6 [7.7] years), 26 872 matched pairs were included in the benzodiazepine cohort and 10 240 in the antipsychotic cohort. For the 53 859 participants in matched cohorts, the mean (SD) age was 89.0 (6.4) years, and 45 116 (83.8%) were female. Initiation of benzodiazepine use was associated with higher 180-day mortality compared with nonuse (HR, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.38-1.44), as was initiation of antipsychotic use (HR, 1.16; 95% CI, 1.12-1.20). These findings were consistent across propensity score–weighted models and with greater cumulative exposure. Conclusions and Relevance In this national case-control study of nursing home residents with ADRD receiving hospice care, initiation of benzodiazepine or antipsychotic use was associated with increased 180-day mortality. While these medications may provide symptom relief in appropriate clinical scenarios, their use is associated with substantial risks. These findings highlight the need for careful prescribing decisions and the development of dementia-specific hospice prescribing guidelines.
