Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of this thesis was to assess the mental and emotional well-being of Latino adolescents; this was achieved by completing a quantitative study analyzing secondary data obtained from the California Health Interview Survey (CHIS). The results revealed that there is a significant relationship among adolescent gender and alcohol consumption with mental and emotional well-being. The results also indicated that there is no significant relationship among language spoken in the home and place of birth with the mental and emotional well-being of youth. The findings may be beneficial in understanding the relationship between mental and emotional well-being and Latino youth.

This book was released on 2006-02-23 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hispanics and the Future of America presents details of the complex story of a population that varies in many dimensions, including national origin, immigration status, and generation. The papers in this volume draw on a wide variety of data sources to describe the contours of this population, from the perspectives of history, demography, geography, education, family, employment, economic well-being, health, and political engagement. They provide a rich source of information for researchers, policy makers, and others who want to better understand the fast-growing and diverse population that we call "Hispanic." The current period is a critical one for getting a better understanding of how Hispanics are being shaped by the U.S. experience. This will, in turn, affect the United States and the contours of the Hispanic future remain uncertain. The uncertainties include such issues as whether Hispanics, especially immigrants, improve their educational attainment and fluency in English and thereby improve their economic position; whether growing numbers of foreign-born Hispanics become citizens and achieve empowerment at the ballot box and through elected office; whether impending health problems are successfully averted; and whether Hispanics' geographic dispersal accelerates their spatial and social integration. The papers in this volume provide invaluable information to explore these issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the impact of three decades of neoliberal narratives and policies on communities and individual lives? What are the sources of social resilience? This book offers a sweeping assessment of the effects of neoliberalism, the dominant feature of our times. It analyzes the ideology in unusually wide-ranging terms as a movement that not only opened markets but also introduced new logics into social life, integrating macro-level analyses of the ways in which neoliberal narratives made their way into international policy regimes with micro-level analyses of the ways in which individuals responded to the challenges of the neoliberal era. The product of ten years of collaboration among a distinguished group of scholars, it integrates institutional and cultural analysis in new ways to understand neoliberalism as a syncretic social process and to explore the sources of social resilience across communities in the developed and developing worlds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compared to ethnic groups, Latinos are disproportionally at risk for developing chronic diseases that are preventable with adequate physical activity, which has been effective in lowering health risks. Latino youths are the least physically active among adolescents; however, factors influencing their physical activity are understudied. Latent growth structural equation modeling was used for the analyses of cohort-sequential longitudinal secondary data. Tests of invariance indicated that data was equivalent across the cohorts. This study examined moderate physical activity (MPA) and vigorous physical activity (VPA) trajectories in a nonprobability sample of 615 self-reported Latino adolescents aged 14 to 18 using an adapted theoretical framework, Pender's Health Promotion model. It also examined the effects of age; gender; family annual income; parent's marital status; and self-perceptions in physical appearance, body weight, athletic competence, social acceptance, global self-worth, ethnic identity, social connectedness, and parent-adolescent communication on physical activity intercept and slope. The analyses included addressing subsets of incomplete data, and maximum likelihood methodology was used to decrease bias in the likelihood estimates. Findings revealed two distinctive physical activity trajectories with different influences through middle adolescence in Latino youths. The average MPA was below recommendations and steady without gender differences, whereas the average VPA met national recommendations with gender differences at initial status and declined linearly and steadily in both girls and boys. Almost 6 out of 10 parents reported an annual family income of US$40,000 or less, and 64.5% were married at enrollment. Salient findings indicated that having a family with a higher annual income than others or married parents did not impact physical activity in Latino youths. However, those who showed more athletic competence also had more VPA when they were in grade 9, and those with more parent-adolescent communication or more changes in body weight perceptions had more MPA. Those with the highest scores in social connectedness had less MPA when participants were in grade 9, and those with the largest gains in social connectedness had a lower VPA change rate. Implications of the findings for nursing practice, education policy, and research are discussed

Download or read book Youth Sport Participation Experiences from the Perspective of Hispanic/Latinx Parents and Their Children and Secondary School Athletic Trainers' Clinical Management Decisions on Low Socioeconomic Status Patients written by Mayrena Isamar Hernandez and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many health benefits from organized sport are achieved primarily through physical activity. Children and adolescents who participate in organized sport have a higher level of physical activity later in life and lead healthier lives in their adulthood. Because physical activity in youth is often executed in an organized manner, organized sport's role in society has become increasingly important over the years, not just for the benefit of an individual but for public health. Despite the many benefits of organized sport, these benefits are not always accessible or equitable to all children and adolescents. These disparities in health, well-being, quality of life, and socioeconomic status (SES) inequities can be a cause of the SDOH. Athletic trainers are health care providers that are uniquely positioned in an optimal public health intersection and can provide direct care for their low SES patient population that is impacted by the SDOH. The primary purposes of this dissertation were to 1) further understanding of youth sport participation experiences from low socioeconomic status families to now of Hispanic/Latinx families, 2) quantify perceptions of clinical management decisions toward low SES student athletes in a group of medical providers and public health advocates, and 3) identify challenges and strategies to upholding a standard of care when providing care to low SES patient population in the secondary school setting. Study 1: 12 Hispanic/Latinx parents and their high school aged children participated in this study. Hispanic/Latinx families described expectations of time and money that were exacerbated by the current youth sport culture. These families met the current youth sport expectations by methods rooted in their culture. When expectations were not met, this led to a misalignment of cultures and resulted in a negative youth sport experience. Study 2: A total of 380 secondary school athletic trainers completed the quantitative aim of this study through a cross-sectional survey regarding their perceptions of the SDOH and SES related to providing patient care. 12 ATs participated in the qualitative aim of this study. ATs perceived health and health care as the most relevant determinant when providing care to low SES patients. When ATs further considered the SES of patients, they identified all SDOHs as barriers they were ill equipped to navigate as they delivered care and engaged in patient referral.

This book was released on 2013-11-13 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical inactivity is a key determinant of health across the lifespan. A lack of activity increases the risk of heart disease, colon and breast cancer, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, osteoporosis, anxiety and depression and others diseases. Emerging literature has suggested that in terms of mortality, the global population health burden of physical inactivity approaches that of cigarette smoking. The prevalence and substantial disease risk associated with physical inactivity has been described as a pandemic. The prevalence, health impact, and evidence of changeability all have resulted in calls for action to increase physical activity across the lifespan. In response to the need to find ways to make physical activity a health priority for youth, the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment was formed. Its purpose was to review the current status of physical activity and physical education in the school environment, including before, during, and after school, and examine the influences of physical activity and physical education on the short and long term physical, cognitive and brain, and psychosocial health and development of children and adolescents. Educating the Student Body makes recommendations about approaches for strengthening and improving programs and policies for physical activity and physical education in the school environment. This report lays out a set of guiding principles to guide its work on these tasks. These included: recognizing the benefits of instilling life-long physical activity habits in children; the value of using systems thinking in improving physical activity and physical education in the school environment; the recognition of current disparities in opportunities and the need to achieve equity in physical activity and physical education; the importance of considering all types of school environments; the need to take into consideration the diversity of students as recommendations are developed. This report will be of interest to local and national policymakers, school officials, teachers, and the education community, researchers, professional organizations, and parents interested in physical activity, physical education, and health for school-aged children and adolescents.

This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this study is the physical activity and nutrition behaviors of adolescents of Mexican origin. There are studies comparing physical activity and nutrition habits by ethnicity that report that Latinos and African Americans fare worse in terms of physical activity levels and healthy eating compared to Caucasian and Asian peers. A common predictor of health behaviors is socioeconomic status (SES). This study looks at various environments and how they influence or constrain the individual health choices adolescents make. For example, it reviews studies about foods available in the schools adolescents attend and neighborhoods in which they live. After reviewing the literature, it was clear that more studies with ethnically homogeneous samples are needed to find subtle differences in health behaviors that go beyond SES. Chapters 3 and 4 are based on a sample of adolescents from Mexican descent from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health. Chapter 3 is about the adolescents' physical activity behaviors while chapter 4 is about their nutrition behaviors. Both studies analyze the influence of acculturation on these health behaviors. These studies analyze whether findings differ for males and females. Both studies include SES, parent's marital status, and frequency of hanging out with friends as control variables.
