Published: October 2023

Wound care in post Sectio Caesaria (SC) patients is one of the external factors that are very important for the wound healing process. After returning home, the post-SC mother still has to take care of the wound so as not to cause infection. Data on childbirth through SC at Sejiran Setason Hospital, West Bangka, was recorded in as much as 48% of 658 deliveries in 2018. This study aimed to determine the relationship between knowledge, attitudes, and family support with post sectio caesaria wound treatment at Sejiran Setason Regional Hospital, West Bangka Regency in 2019. The study was conducted using a cross-sectional design. The population in this study was all mothers who had experienced sectio caesaria at Sejiran Setason Hospital, with as many as 368 patients. The sample taken in this study was 86 respondents who met the inclusion criteria. Sampling uses quota sampling techniques, while hypothesis testing uses spearman rank (rho). The results showed the relationship of knowledge ( p = 0.026;r = 0.240*) and attitude (p = 0.011; r = 0.273*) with the care of post-SC patient wounds. In the variable family support, the result was p=0.782 >Î± (0.05), which means that there is no relationship. For this study, it is hoped that health workers can improve post-SC wound care education to patients and provide resume returns to improve mothers' knowledge and attitudes in caring for post-SC wounds.

Authors: Suryani Eka , Diniyah Kharisah
Published: October 2023

The results of the study of the patient safety management team in Indonesia for health services revealed that the provision of informed consent in various healthcare institutions needs to be optimal. Most health workers only ask patients and families to sign informed consent without providing a detailed explanation. This condition certainly affects the knowledge of patients and families. Knowledge of patients and families can cause problems if desirable things happen. This study aimed to describe the application of informed consent in family planning services at Anisa Yogyakarta Independent Midwife Practice (PMB). This study used descriptive qualitative methods. The sampling technique using snowball sampling technique amounted to 4 midwife informants and four acceptor informants. The results of in-depth interviews conducted with four midwife informants said that the implementation of informed consent in family planning services at the Independent Midwife Practice (PMB) had gone well. The midwife had carried out the obligation to ask for consent and provide information while for the completeness of filling out informed consent, 14 informed consent filled in, as many as eight informed consent and six incomplete informed consent and from in-depth interviews, the acceptor was able to explain the contents of the informed consent. Acceptor informants said they signed the action consent sheet after the midwife explained about family planning (KB) that acceptors would use. The informed consent application in family planning services at the Independent Midwife Practice (PMB) has generally been done well. Still, the completeness of filling out informed consent has yet to be maximized, and acceptors generally understand informed consent in family planning services.

Published: October 2023

Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer among women worldwide, with an estimated 528,000 cases and 260,000 deaths yearly (Kagabu et al., 2020). The incidence of cervical cancer in Indonesia in 2018 was 23.4 per 100,000, with an average death rate of 13.9 per 100,000 (Profil RI, 2020). This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of VIA and Pup Smear examinations. The research method uses literature, which involves reviewing and critically evaluating existing literature sources. Review of journals in this study by searching for journals in the database (Google Scholar and PubMed). The results of the study state that the sensitivity value of Pap smear is 97.14%. This shows that it is higher than the sensitivity of VIA examination, and the specificity value of VIA is higher at 94.5% compared to the specificity value of VIA. Of the two methods, Pap Smear Visual Inspection screening is more effective than VIA. This study concludes that the Pap Smear Visual Inspection screening method is more effective than the IVA method. The sensitivity and discipline for detecting high-grade scrotal intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) are higher than a pap smear.

Published: October 2023

Introduction. Today, the world's attention is riveted to Ukraine because of the war with the Russian Federation and counteracting the spread of fake news is more relevant than ever. That is why it is essential to highlight practices and interpretations of fake news from three perspectives: the perception and attitudes toward it, perceptions of interacting with it and opinions about countering it. Aim. The article aimed to shed light on three perspectives related to fake news: the perception and attitudes toward it, perceived interaction with it and opinion on counteraction it from various stakeholder groups. Methods: expert interviews, content analysis, qualitative analysis and supporting strategies: abstraction, deduction, contextualisation, interpretive content analysis and its "contextual" analysis. Results. Our research indicates that Ukrainian media users single out the following threats posed by fake news: panic, disappointment, and change in worldview. In addition, Ukrainian media users search for opinion leaders who can offer information credibility assessments. They are sure that supporting activities concerning credibility information could be checking scientific databases, searching for contradicting information, and collaborating between media users, media organisations, scientists, communication managers, journalists and other important actors in the media ecosystem. Conclusions. Our findings concerning Ukraine's media ecosystem may contribute to understanding the interaction of fake news in other European countries with similar media-cultural conditions and developing sensible policies, as ICT governance's success depends on all actors' willingness and participation in the media ecosystem.

Published: October 2023

Introduction. The long-term global upheavals (economic crises, pandemics, wars) require a review of decision-making strategies by the management of business organizations. Aim. To identify the leading decision-making styles used by managers of small and medium-sized business in stressful situations and the styles’ impact on managers' job adaptation in war conditions. Methods. The study was conducted on a sample of 109 business managers and entrepreneurs using the Melbourne Decision-Making Questionnaire and the General Decision-Making Style Questionnaire. The individual psychological characteristics of business managers and levels of their adaptation were explored using S. Cohen's Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) (adapted by O. Veldbrecht and N. I. Tavrovetska), N. Carleton Intolerance to Uncertainty Scale (IUS-12)(adapted by G. Gromova), General Self-Efficacy Scale (adapted by I. Galetska), Life Orientation Test (dispositional optimism) (LOT-R) (adapted by S. Lukova), and a specially designed questionnaire (I. Syngayivska, H. Gura). Results. The leading business managers' decision-making styles during the first year of a full-scale war included mainly the rational, intuitive and spontaneous styles. The formation of managerial competence was accompanied by managers' readiness to make important decisions, which is manifested in managers' reluctance to use defensive reactions: avoidance, postponement, transfer of responsibility, and impulsivity. Maladaptive styles formed a symptom complex based on personal traits and tendencies rather than on cognitive characteristics. A comparative analysis of groups with different levels of adaptability (successful, problematic and super-successful) demonstrated the impact of different decision-making styles on job adaptation. In situations of uncertainty, the traditionally successful decision-making style, which was based on a thorough analysis of information, lost its adaptive value. Conclusions. The obtained results may be helpful for effective responding to challenges and sustainable functioning of business in crisis conditions.

Authors: Samgina T. A.
Published: October 2023

He aim of the study was to determine the role of polymorphisms of the GGT1 gene and environmental risk factors in the acute biliary pancreatitis. The material of the study was DNA samples obtained from 84 patients with ABP and 573 healthy individuals. The disease was diagnosed using clinical guidelines (Russian Society of Surgeons). To assess the associations of alleles and genotypes of the gene with the risk of acute pancreatitis, the χ2 test and the odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used. Statistical analysis was carried out using the Statistica 10.0 program (StatSoft, USA) and the SNPStats program. Results. It was found that the A/A-G/G rs5760489 and A/A rs4820599 GGT1 genotypes have an increased risk of ABP. The H3 A-A-A-A haplotype is associated with a reduced risk of the disease, while the H6 A-G-A-A haplotype, on the contrary, increases the risk of developing the disease. The absence of exposure to alcohol abuse reduces the risk of ABP in carriers of the genotypes A/G-G/G rs5760489, A/G-G/G rs4820599, smoking -A/G-G/G rs4820599 and A/G-G/G rs5760489. The A/G-G/G rs4820599, G/A-A/A rs5751909 and A/G-G/G rs5760489 genotypes have a protective effect with sufficient consumption of fresh vegetables and fruits, the main suppliers of glutathione to the body. The presence of glutathione deficiency leads to the oxidative stress, and phenotypic changes we found: leukocytosis (allele A, rs5760489), peritonitis (allele A, rs5751909). Conclusion. The GGT1 gene can be used to predict the development and clinical course of acute biliary pancreatitis and its complications.

Authors: Zinchenko R. A. , Marakhonov A. V. , Kutsev S. I. , Kadyshev V. V.
Published: October 2023

According to the World Health Organization, hereditary eye pathologies (HEP) constitute a significant proportion of ophthalmologic diseases (at least 35% in total and up to 40%in children), resulting in substantial disability (65-70%). However, there is a lack of data on the prevalence and diversity of HEP in the Russian Federation. Therefore, it is crucial to study the prevalence and etiological nature of these diseases using modern genome technologies, in order to identify frequent forms, enable early detection in children, and develop effective therapeutic and preventive measures. Objective: The objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence of HEP in children, both as isolated conditions and as part of hereditary diseases and syndromes, in seven regions of the Russian Federation, while identifying frequently occurring nosological forms. Materials and methods: An epidemiological and clinical genetic study was conducted in 60 districts across the regions of Rostov, Kirov, Republics of Chuvashia, Udmurtia, Bashkortostan, Tatarstan, and Karachay-Cherkessia, encompassing a total population of 2,434,460 individuals, including 480,575 children. The study encompassed the entire population of the selected areas, regardless of age, and followed an original protocol for genetic and epidemiological research established at the Laboratory of Genetic Epidemiology. The methods employed included clinical-genetic, genealogical, clinical-laboratory, and molecular-genetic techniques, such as full-exome sequencing. The prevalence of visual organ diseases was calculated. Results: The results revealed a total of 449 patients with 56 different forms of isolated hereditary eye pathology (IHEP), indicating a prevalence of 1:1070 children. Additionally, 507 pediatric patients were identified with eye involvement as a symptom of 50 hereditary diseases and syndromes (SHEP), resulting in a prevalence of 1:954 children. Overall, hereditary eye lesions affecting various eye structures were identified in 956 pediatric patients, yielding a prevalence of 1:504 children. Frequent nosological forms were identified for both disease groups: 17 in IHEP and 14 in SHEP. Notably, these frequent hereditary eye diseases accounted for more than 80% of all identified patients with hereditary pathology (83.30% and 88.10% for IHEP and SHEP, respectively). Conclusion: This study provides new insights into the epidemiology of hereditary eye pathologies in the Russian Federation and describes frequent diseases within this population. These findings will contribute to improving research and clinical practices, expanding the range of treatable conditions, and informing targeted programs and measures in the field of children’s healthcare.

Relevance All over the world, neonatal screening protocols are being improved in order to reduce the time of diagnosis, simplify the examination procedure, and reduce the number of false positive and false negative results of neonatal screening. In most European countries, the best neonatal screening algorithm is molecular genetic testing. Objective: Evaluate the effectiveness of the new cystic fibrosis screening protocol algorithm, which, in the first step, determines the immunoreactive trypsin (IRT) level from one dry spot and performs DNA diagnostics (36 most frequent mutations) in patients with increased IRT. Compare the economic costs of screening by two algorithms (existing and alternative). Materials and methods: two parallel algorithms were used for neonatal screening. Which was performed on 56,534 infants in the Moscow Region from March to November 2022. The current three-stage algorithm was used, which involves re-blood sampling from newborns at risk 3-4 weeks after the first blood sampling and a sweat test. In the new algorithm, newborns with an elevated IRT 1 level at the 1st week of life underwent a molecular genetic study (search for frequent mutations in the CFTR-36 variants gene, sequencing of individual locus of the CFTR gene for control purposes) in the same dry blood spot used for screening. Results: out of 56,534 test forms received, 607 (1.07%) newborns with a positive test for IRT were identified for neonatal screening in a laboratory from the Moscow region, of which 501 (82.5%) samples were selected, where the level of RTI1 exceeded the cut-off level (65 ng / ml), which were sent for molecular genetic research in order to search for pathogenic variants in the CFTR gene. 106 (17.5%) newborns did not complete the examination. Positive results of confirmatory diagnosis were obtained in 6 infants, which accounted for 0.01% of the number of children who underwent screening and 1.2% of the number of children with neonatal hypertrypsinogenemia. Conclusion: the positive effects of the new algorithm are to reduce psychological tension in families during examination by reducing the time of diagnosis, no need for repeated blood sampling on the 21st-28th day of life, reduction of the time of diagnosis, prevention of nutritional deficiencies in children during the first months of life and life-threatening complications. Reducing the number of children with incomplete testing for cystic fibrosis, economic benefit. The negative effects of the new algorithm are that it is possible to miss a patient with cystic fibrosis who does not have any of the common pathogenic variants in the CFTR gene.

Published: October 2023

The article examines the effectiveness of the use of ozone therapy in the complex treatment of children with appendicular peritonitis at the stage of the early postoperative period in relation to the correction of laboratory indicators of endotoxin aggression and relief of the main clinical symptoms. 60 children operated on for widespread appendicular peritonitis were examined. The main group consisted of 30 children who received a course of ozone therapy in addition to standard complex therapy at the stage of the early postoperative period. Only standard therapy was performed in patients of the comparison group. The control group consisted of 30 healthy children of the same age. Among the patients of the control group, in most cases, its physiological level was established - in 93.3%. The average value of lipopolysaccharides in the group was 0.6±0.1 EU/ml. In turn, among the patients of the main group and the comparison group, all children (100%) showed the development of endotoxin aggression. So, in the main group, the initial average value of lipolysaccharides was 2.6 ± 0.2 EU/ml, and in the comparison group - 2.50.2 EU/ml. 2 weeks after the surgical intervention in patients of the main group, the increased level of lipolysaccharides remained only in 20.0% of children. At the same time, the average value of the indicator was 0.8±0.1 EU/ml. Among the patients of the comparison group, on the 14th day of the postoperative period, 50.0% of children retained an elevated level of lipopolysaccharides, and the average value of the indicator was 1.50.1 EU/ml. It is proved that the use of ozone therapy according to the proposed method at the stage of the early postoperative period in the complex treatment of children with widespread appendicular peritonitis makes it possible to reduce laboratory indicators of endotoxin aggression in a shorter time and accelerate the regression of clinical symptoms.

The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has had an impact on the healthcare system and people’s health. The consequences of this influence require study and analysis to further predict population health and healthcare development. Different age groups have significant differences in. features of the disease, epidemiology and consequences. Newborns and infants make up only a small part of the pediatric population affected by COVID-19. Data on the epidemiological and clinical features of COVID-19 in infants are limited. Assessing the impact of the pandemic on this age group through the analysis of morbidity, mortality, hospitalizations, and dispensary observation is of interest to public health. The pandemic has had an impact on public health and public health. The consequences of this influence require comprehensive analysis. The analysis of the main indicators showed that the peak of the pandemic infant children in the Moscow Region occurred in 2021, when the highest incidence and referrals for COVID-19 were registered. The highest level of hospitalization was in 2022. In the period 2020-2021 there was a decrease in morbidity and hospitalizations, which differs from trends in older children and adults. The pandemic had no impact on the coverage of medical examinations of infants, as well as on the mortality rate and the structure of the main causes of death.
Testing Factorial Invariance of Zero-inflated Measures Using a Two-part Factor Model
Authors:   Korean Society for Educational Evaluation, Kim Mirim
Published: October 2023

Multi-group confirmatory factor analysis (MGCFA) is a common tool for testing factorial invariance within structural eqaution modeling (SEM) framework; however, a two-part factor model might be more appropriate for zero-inflated measures due to the severe non-normality of the data. Nevertheless, testing the factorial invariance of zero-inflated variables using the two-part factor model is uncommon. To fill that gap in the literature, the current study demonstrated the use of two-part factor model for testing factorial invariance of highly zero-inflated measures and compared the result to the MGCFA’s. The two models led to different factorial invariance results on the zero-inflated measures. The two-part factor model supported full scalar invariance of the continuous-part model whereas the MGCFA concluded only partial metric invariance. Thus, applying a different factor model brought different conclusions about factorial invariance when the measures were zero-inflated.

Authors: SEYYAR Ali , AYSOY Mehmet
Published: October 2023

Genelde toplumsal etkileşimler ve bunlar aracılığıyla gerçekleşen toplumsal süreçler üzerinde çalışmalarda bulunmuş olan Georg Simmel, çağının modern toplumlarını sadece felsefik bir yaklaşımla değil aynı zamanda şehir sosyolojisi bağlamında da araştırmıştır. Bu çerçevede bu makalede ilk önce Simmel’in bilimsel çalışmalarında moderniteyi simgeleyen modern kavramını hangi bağlamda ve hangi teorik ve yöntemsel yaklaşımla ele aldığı ortaya konulmuştur. Ayrıca Simmel’in modernite ve modern insan ile ilgili düşünceleri, büyük şehir sakinleri, nevrasteni ve para (ekonomisi) üzerinden incelenmiştir. Simmel’e göre büyük şehirlere mahsus unsurların başında para ekonomisi gelmektedir. Bunun için Simmel, örneğin entelektüellik ve şehir toplum arasındaki ilişkiyi, “toplumlaşma” çerçevesinde incelemiştir. Makale, günümüz modern şehir yaşamının sosyo-ekonomik, sıhhi ve kültürel sorunlarının Simmel’in kuramsal çalışmalarıyla daha iyi açıkladığından dolayı önemli bir açılım sergilemektedir. Makalenin amacı, büyük şehri modernliğin bir simgesi ve içinde yaşayan bireyleri modern toplumun en önemli parçası olarak karakterize eden Simmel’in şehir hayatının karmaşık ilişki ağlarını ortaya koymaktır. Araştırmanın nihayetinde şehir toplumunun tek boyutlu bir süreç olmaktan ziyade karşılıklı zıt kuvvetler ve duygular eşliğinde bir sosyal etkileşim sistemi olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. Bu anlamda Simmel’in dünya görüşünde modernite, hep şimdiki zamanı içine alan anlık bir sosyal olgudur.

Previous research suggests that environment can play an important role in encouraging or discouraging creative expression and productivity. Additional research has uncovered a discrepancy between the creativity students express at school and the creativity they express outside of school. One explanation for this creativity gap is that school discourages creativity. So far, the creativity gap has only been studied with nongifted students. One objective of the present investigation was to check for a similar creativity gap among gifted learners. Four hundred and eighty-seven middle and high school students from the State of Kuwait (240 gifted and 247 nongifted) were recruited. The Creativity Activities and Accomplishment Check List (CAAC) was administered to compare students’ creative achievements at home and at school. The primary finding of this investigation was that the strength of the relationship between creativity at home and creativity at school differed in gifted and nongifted students. The creativity gap existed in both, but it was only moderate in the gifted group. A second finding was that gifted students expressed more creativity at school, compared with the nongifted group in some CAAC domains. There was no difference between the gifted and the nongifted groups in the creativity expressed at home. Although gifted students expressed more creativity at school, compared with their nongifted peers, they were nonetheless more creative at home compared with school. Finally, structural equation modeling indicated that attitudes about creativity significantly mediated the relationship between creativity at home and creativity at school. Limitations and future directions are discussed.
Re-visiting professional ethics in psychotherapy: Reflections on the use of talking therapies as a supportive adjunct for myalgic encephalomyelitis / chronic fatigue syndrome and ‘medically unexplained symptoms’
Authors: Hunt Joanne , Blease Charlotte
Published: October 2023

Following years of debate over the effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy for myalgic encephalomyelitis / chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), public health bodies in the UK and beyond have determined that no psychotherapy is clinically proven for this patient group. In the field of ME/CFS and the wider arena of ‘medically unexplained symptoms’ (MUS), patient survey data and qualitative research capturing patient experiences and psychotherapist attitudes suggest that therapeutic practice may sometimes fall short of required ethical standards. This raises questions about how psychotherapists can safely support, as opposed to treat, people with these debilitating conditions. We consider four ethical principles that feature throughout psychotherapists’ codes of practice, those of respect, competence, responsibility, and integrity, and discuss examples of good and poor practice in this arena as evinced by recent empirical literature. Following this, we offer a variety of suggestions to help strengthen ethical psychotherapy practice among patients with ME/CFS and other MUS. In terms of practitioner education, we recommend greater emphasis on humility and reflexive practice, exploration of personal as well professional ethics, and integration of patient expertise-by-experience, accompanied with latest evidence, into foundational and on-going training. In terms of practice, we suggest consideration of formalized patient-focused feedback systems and greater transparency vis-à-vis patient access to clinical notes. Finally, we underline the importance of elevating patients from mere subjects to co-producers of psychotherapy research.

The Musahars are a little-known and backward ethnic group of Nepal and have traditional knowledge of ethnomedicine. They used animals and plants for the treatment of various diseases.This knowledge is vanishing as it is not transferred verbally to the next generation. Hence, this study aimed to document such ethnomedicinal knowledge of the Musahar community by using60 semi-structured questionnaires. The relative frequency of citation and use value were used to analyze the data. This study recorded 14 species of animals belonging to 12 orders and 14 families for the treatment of 11 different types of ailments. Among them, pigeon was the most commonly used species (UV = 0.27), with 44 used reports by 60 respondents. They treated various ailments, among which respiratory problems were the most commonly treated. Similarly, a total of 54 plant species belonging to 26 orders and 35 families for the treatment of 30 different types of ailments were found. Tulsi was the most common species used (UV = 0.188) with 96 use reports. Plantswere commonly used to treat respiratory and integumentary disorders. Ethnomedicinal knowledge was more in the elderly than in the younger generation as they showed an affinity towards modern medicine and modern health services. Hence, this study may help to preserve their traditional ethnomedicinal knowledge before it vanishes.
Examining how bystanders intervene and perpetrators respond to intervention during experiences of sexual aggression

Despite increasing uptake of bystander intervention programs to prevent sexual aggression, rates of sexual violence have remained persistently high. Those who witness sexual aggression among their peers can provide another vantage point regarding the strategies that perpetrators use and valuable information about ways in which perpetrators divert bystanders’ intervention—all information that can inform prevention programs. Participants ( N = 247) completed structured and open-ended items about occasions they had witnessed that involved efforts to force sex on a non-consenting individual. Reports were content coded for strategies leading to sexual aggression for 99 participants who had witnessed a recent alleged act of sexual aggression. Most (93%) reported perpetrators’ use of early physical pressure (e.g., unwanted grinding, following, isolating, violating personal space, pulling, blocking others) that typically escalated into more overt physical pressure and force. Verbal coercion (e.g., arguing, insisting, begging) was witnessed by 40% of participants, and 14% of participants reported witnessing the target being pressured to consume excessive levels of alcohol. Coded themes captured perpetrators’ defensive interactions with concerned bystanders, such as making excuses, minimizing their intentions, feigning innocence, and using humour to divert attention from sexually aggressive efforts. Results have implications for prevention efforts incorporating bystanders as well as education about the risk of assault.
Trans liberation under neoliberal governmentality: An argument against rights-based activism
Authors: Simmons Heather M.
Published: October 2023

During the 1980s, the increasing institutionalization of the North American gay and lesbian rights movement drastically shifted the goals and methods of 2SLGBTQIA+ activism. Organizations began to focus on achieving access and equality through dominant institutions (such as military service and hate crime legislation) with the goal of achieving “equal citizenship,” rather than challenging the foundational inequalities embedded in such institutions. Despite the issues with this kind of approach, contemporary trans resistance is often expected to replicate this framework and make similar demands for trans-specific human rights and legal protections. This article argues that a rights-based approach to trans liberation cannot succeed under the current iteration of biopolitical governance in the United States. Inspired by Henry Giroux’s concept of the biopolitics of disposability, the author suggests that contemporary neoliberalism devalues trans lives (especially the lives of racialized trans women and femmes) to such an extent that they are viewed as expendable. Therefore, 2SLGBTQIA+ advocacy that seeks to gain further transgender rights and legal protections from a state that views trans lives as expendable should be abandoned in favour of activist projects that address the most urgent issues facing the most vulnerable trans people, such as employment assistance programs, access to inclusive healthcare, decarceration, and prison abolition projects.
The influence of shame in the psychological well-being of asexual people who experienced discrimination: A mediation model
Authors: Barreto Louise Tavares , Boislard Marie-Aude
Published: October 2023

Research on sexual minorities has demonstrated that they face greater risks of experiencing poorer mental health due to minority stress factors, but there has been limited investigation into how these factors affect the well-being of asexual individuals. This study addressed this gap by examining whether shame played a mediating role in the relationship between discrimination and the mental health outcomes (i.e., social anxiety and psychological distress) of asexual individuals, as well as whether social support moderated the association between discrimination and shame. Data for this cross-sectional study were collected through an online questionnaire as part of the VisaJe project, which examined the stigmatization of sexually inexperienced emerging adults. Validated scales were used to measure the study variables among a sample of 177 asexual individuals aged between 18 and 42. Structural equation modelling revealed that social support did not have a moderating effect on the relationship between discrimination and shame. However, after controlling for variables such as social support, gender, developmental period and ethnic minority status, the results indicated that shame partially mediated the relationship between discrimination and psychological distress, and fully mediated the relationship between discrimination and social anxiety. These findings indicate that asexual individuals face similar pathways linking discrimination to mental health, mirroring those observed in other sexual minority groups, as they derogate from the norms of compulsory sexuality. However, general support may not serve as a protective factor for asexual individuals facing discrimination. The implications of these findings for future studies and professional practice are discussed.

Parental/guardian support can be a key input for policy decision-making for sexual health education curriculum development and it is, therefore, critical to examine parental/guardian attitudes towards the principles underlying comprehensive sexual health education. The Canadian Guidelines for Sexual Health Education ( SIECCAN, 2019 ) specify nine Core Principles of Comprehensive Sexual Health Education that should inform the planning and delivery of sexual health education programs. This study examines parental/guardian attitudes towards the Core Principles and determines whether attitudes vary based on demographic and regional variables. Two thousand parents/guardians from across Canada completed an online questionnaire assessing demographic characteristics and overall agreement with each of the Core Principles. There was strong consensus among parents/guardians; 73% to 85% support the inclusion of the nine Core Principles in the planning and development of sexual health education programs. We tested agreement with Core Principles in two ways: first using averaged scores across all Core Principle items, then across individual Core Principles. We found some statistically significant effects based on parent/guardian gender, educational attainment, region of residence, and importance of religion, however all effect sizes were small (between 1%–4% variance accounted for) suggesting these were not particularly meaningful. Therefore, findings demonstrate parental/guardian support across Canada for the Core Principles of Comprehensive Sexual Health Education. Understanding parents’/guardians’ attitudes towards the philosophical underpinnings of sexual health education provides policymakers with a firmer understanding of parental perspectives which may be particularly salient as new issues emerge in public discourse about the content of sexual health education in schools.
