Download or read book Factors Associated with Repeat Teen Pregnancy Prevention Among Teen Mothers During 1996 and 2002 Using Longitudinal Survey of Adolescent Health Data written by Yolanda A. Cavalier and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adolescent childbearing and pregnancy are important social and public health issues. According to Darroch et al. (2001), birth rates for United States (U.S.) teenagers continue to be higher than the rates for teens in most other developed countries Furthermore, according to Childtrends (2006, 2001, 2007) the proportion of teen births that were repeat has been relatively consistent (21-19%) from 1999 to 2005. Studies state that a teen can finish high school, develop vocational skills and become self-sufficient by delaying additional pregnancies during the teen years. This study conducted a secondary analysis of restricted data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Adolescent Health (Add Health) to determine which factors are associated with the prevention of a repeat teen pregnancy. The core sample included females from Wave II with at least one birth prior to age 19 (teen mothers). Then, this sample of teen mothers was divided into two sub samples of teen mothers, one who did not have any additional pregnancies prior to age 20 and the second who had additional pregnancies prior to age 20 between Waves II and III. This study assessed the relationship between several demographic, psychosocial and behavioral factors among teen mothers. Discrete time-series analyses using Stata statistical software were performed to examine the factors contributing to the prevention of repeat teen pregnancy. The results of the study showed that having high spirituality and a medium positive attitude towards pregnancy/childbearing were protective and showed a decreased risk for a repeat teen pregnancy. These findings could be used to develop interventions that include spirituality and other protective factors such as: continuing in school, participating in vocational training, addressing teen mothers' attitudes toward pregnancy and childbearing, consistently using contraceptives, initiating the program early in the post partum period and having program staff that is able to connect with the teen mother. Interventions may work collaboratively with faith communities which are good resources that have access to methods to practice spirituality and influence values. insert short pdf.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive work in D&I research -- now completely updated and expanded The application of scientific research to the creation of evidence-based policies is a science unto itself -- and one that is never easy. Dissemination and implementation research (D&I) is the study of how scientific advances can be implemented into everyday life, and understanding how it works has never been more important for students and professionals across the scientific, academic, and governmental communities. Dissemination and Implementation Research in Health is a practical guide to making research more consequential, a collection assembled and written by today's leading D&I researchers. Readers of this book are taught to: � Evaluate the evidence base in an effective intervention � Choose a strategy that produces the greatest impact � Design an appropriate and effectual study � Track essential outcomes � Account for the barriers to uptake in communities, social service agencies, and health care facilities The challenges to moving research into practice are universal, and they're complicated by the current landscape's reliance on partnerships and multi-center research. In this light, Dissemination and Implementation Research in Health is nothing less than a roadmap to effecting change in the sciences. It will have broad utility to researchers and practitioners in epidemiology, biostatistics, behavioral science, economics, medicine, social work, psychology, and anthropology -- both today and in our slightly better future.

It is now time to emphasize health and development in middle childhood and adolescence--developmental phases that are critical to health in adulthood and the next generation. Child and Adolescent Health and Development explores the benefits that accrue from sustained and targeted interventions across the first two decades of life. The volume outlines the investment case for effective, costed, and scalable interventions for low-resource settings, emphasizing the cross-sectoral role of education. This evidence base can guide policy makers in prioritizing actions to promote survival, health, cognition, and physical growth throughout childhood and adolescence.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the continuum of reproductive health care, antenatal care provides a platform for important health-care functions, including health promotion, screening and diagnosis, and disease prevention. It has been established that, by implementing timely and appropriate evidence-based practices, antenatal care can save lives. Endorsed by the United Nations Secretary-General, this is a comprehensive WHO guideline on routine antenatal care for pregnant women and adolescent girls. It aims to complement existing WHO guidelines on the management of specific pregnancy-related complications. The guidance captures the complex nature of the antenatal care issues surrounding healthcare practices and delivery, and prioritizes person-centered health and well-being --- not only the prevention of death and morbidity --- in accordance with a human rights-based approach.

This book was released on 2016-04-11 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The evaluation of reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH) by the Disease Control Priorities, Third Edition (DCP3) focuses on maternal conditions, childhood illness, and malnutrition. Specifically, the chapters address acute illness and undernutrition in children, principally under age 5. It also covers maternal mortality, morbidity, stillbirth, and influences to pregnancy and pre-pregnancy. Volume 3 focuses on developments since the publication of DCP2 and will also include the transition to older childhood, in particular, the overlap and commonality with the child development volume. The DCP3 evaluation of these conditions produced three key findings: 1. There is significant difficulty in measuring the burden of key conditions such as unintended pregnancy, unsafe abortion, nonsexually transmitted infections, infertility, and violence against women. 2. Investments in the continuum of care can have significant returns for improved and equitable access, health, poverty, and health systems. 3. There is a large difference in how RMNCH conditions affect different income groups; investments in RMNCH can lessen the disparity in terms of both health and financial risk.

Download or read book Hidden Scars written by United Nations Publications and published by . This book was released on 2022-04-30 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 1 billion children - half of all children in the world - are exposed to violence every year, in many forms and places, online and off. Whether a target or a witness, a child's exposure to violence has a severe impact on mental health. Such experiences with violence are often traumatic, evoking toxic responses to stress that cause both immediate and longterm physiological and psychological damage, including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, borderline personality disorder, anxiety, substance use disorders, sleep and eating disorders, and suicide. As the international community begins a Decade of Action to deliver the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030, mental health must be imperative to measures employed to prevent and respond to violence against children and fulfill the promises of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. In support of that process, this publication provides an overview of international evidence on the ways in which violence harms children's mental health, considering both diverse settings and forms of violence, developmental differences in the aftermath, and the most significant risk and protective factors. Highlighting the urgent need for action alongside continued gaps in knowledge of worthwhile solutions, the report also offers existing, effective approaches that should be pursued.
