Few studies have investigated whether these factors change in their contribution to adolescent drinking over time. This study examined associations between perceived risk, opportunities to drink, self-control, and past-year drinking and investigated whether self-control buffers the effect of lower perceived risk and frequent drinking opportunities on the probability of past-year drinking. <i>Method</i>: Data from a four-wave longitudinal study (2015-2020) of 2,104 North Carolina adolescents (<i>M<sub>age</sub></i> = 12.36, <i>SD<sub>age</sub></i> = 1.12, at Time 1) were used to assess changes in associations between self-control, perceived risk of drinking, and drinking opportunities on the frequency of past-year drinking. Hypotheses were tested using latent trajectory models. <i>Results</i>: At all timepoints, greater perceived risk, fewer drinking opportunities, and higher self-control were associated with drinking abstinence in the past year. Self-control buffered the impact of frequent drinking opportunities and lower perceived risk on the probability of alcohol use at Times 1-3. <i>Conclusions</i>: Despite expectations that adolescents' ability to navigate their environments improves as they age, associations between risk, protective factors, and past-year drinking were relatively stable over time. Nevertheless, self-control protected against frequent drinking opportunities and lower perceived risk. Strategies that support or relieve the need for self-control (e.g., situation modification) may protect against alcohol use throughout adolescence.}, Doi = {10.1080/10826084.2024.2310489}, Key = {fds375860} } @article{fds368909, Author = {Andrade, FC and Hoyle, RH and Burnell, K}, Title = {Adjusting to the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States: The impact of disruptions on habits and changes in health behaviors.}, Journal = {Journal of health psychology}, Volume = {28}, Number = {14}, Pages = {1307-1319}, Year = {2023}, Month = {December}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/13591053221144440}, Abstract = {The COVID-19 pandemic provides a naturalistic test of whether pandemic-related disruptions weaken habits and undermine behavior stability. We hypothesized that better capacity to effortfully guide behavior (self-regulation) would buffer this effect and be associated with behavior stability and development of new habits to accomplish daily behaviors. A cross-sectional study of 416 MTurk workers recruited in April 2020 (<i>M</i><sub>age</sub> = 34.60, <i>SD</i> = 11.51) indicated that pandemic-related disruptions generally exceeded people's capacity to effortfully modify their behavior. Self-regulation related to the development of new habits and to lower likelihood that work productivity decreased. Self-regulation also protected against the effect of disruption on the likelihood that substance use increased. Besides these associations, self-regulation was largely unrelated to health-related behaviors and, in some instances, associated with poorer outcomes. These findings underscore the need to appreciate the impact of contextual disruptions in interpreting and promoting change in health-related behaviors.}, Doi = {10.1177/13591053221144440}, Key = {fds368909} } @article{fds370374, Author = {Andrade, FC and Erwin, S and Burnell, K and Jackson, J and Storch, M and Nicholas, J and Zucker, N}, Title = {Intervening on Social Comparisons on Social Media: Electronic Daily Diary Pilot Study.}, Journal = {JMIR Ment Health}, Volume = {10}, Pages = {e42024}, Year = {2023}, Month = {April}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.2196/42024}, Abstract = {BACKGROUND: Literature has underscored the dark aspects of social media use, including associations with depressive symptoms, feelings of social isolation, and diminished self-esteem. Social comparison, the process of evaluating oneself relative to another person, is thought to contribute to these negative experiences such that people with a stronger tendency to compare themselves with others are particularly susceptible to the detrimental effects of social media. Social media as a form of social connection and communication is nevertheless an inevitable-and arguably integral-part of life, particularly for young adults. Therefore, there is a need to investigate strategies that could alter the manner in which people interact with social media to minimize its detrimental effects and maximize the feelings of affiliation and connection. OBJECTIVE: This pilot study examined the feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of a brief web-based intervention designed to alter engagement with social media and promote psychological well-being by encouraging social savoring as an alternative to social comparison. Social savoring was operationalized as experiencing joyful emotions related to the happiness of someone else's experiences (ie, feeling happy for someone else). METHODS: Following an intensive longitudinal design, 55 college students (mean age 19.29, SD 0.93 years; n=43, 78% women and n=23, 42% White) completed baseline measures (individual differences, psychological well-being, connectedness, and social media use) and then 14 days of daily surveys on their social media activity and well-being. On day 8, the group that was randomized to receive the intervention watched a video instructing them on the skill of social savoring and was asked to practice this skill during days 8 to 14. RESULTS: Overall, participants reported positive perceptions of the intervention. Participants who watched the intervention video reported significantly higher performance self-esteem (P=.02) at posttest than those in the control condition, after controlling for baseline levels. Participants also reported significantly higher state self-esteem (P=.01) on days in which they engaged in more social savoring while using social media, and the use of social savoring increased significantly (P=.01) over time, suggesting that participants found it helpful. Participants in both conditions reported significantly lower levels of social comparison (control: P=.01; intervention: P=.002) and higher levels of connectedness (control: P<.001; intervention: P=.001) at posttest than at baseline. CONCLUSIONS: Initial evidence from this pilot study suggests that a web-based social savoring intervention may help minimize the potentially harmful consequences of social media use, at least in some domains. Future work is needed to examine the effectiveness and acceptance of this intervention in different age groups and in clinical samples that are in part characterized by higher levels of comparison with others (eg, people with eating disorders).}, Doi = {10.2196/42024}, Key = {fds370374} } @article{fds369357, Author = {Andrade, FC and Hoyle, RH}, Title = {A synthesis and meta-analysis of the relationship between trait self-control and healthier practices in physical activity, eating, and sleep domains}, Journal = {Personality and Individual Differences}, Volume = {205}, Year = {2023}, Month = {April}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.paid.2023.112095}, Abstract = {This paper updates and extends prior work by meta-analyzing the fast-growing literature on the association between individual differences in trait self-control and multiple outcomes within the domains of physical activity, eating, and sleep. Random-effects models with nesting by study and sample were estimated for the aggregate association between self-control and all health-related domains, for each domain independently, and for moderated meta-regressions testing whether effect sizes varied by method, measurement, and sampling within each domain. Self-control was modestly associated with engagement in health-related activities, with significantly stronger associations for sleep relative to eating and physical activity-related outcomes. Within eating and sleep domains, associations significantly varied as a function of outcome type and whether they were assessed in terms of health-promotion or health-risk practices. Findings suggest that the upper bound of what can be predicted by individual differences in self-control varies by health-related outcome. Importantly, smaller associations point to the potential role of other individual differences, contextual affordances, and biological factors in explaining healthier physical activity, eating, and sleep-related practices. The granular approach taken in this investigation may ultimately aid the translation of a growing literature on the role of individual differences in self-control into effective health behavior maintenance and change interventions.}, Doi = {10.1016/j.paid.2023.112095}, Key = {fds369357} } @article{fds369074, Author = {Meyerson, WU and Fineberg, SK and Song, YK and Faber, A and Ash, G and Andrade, FC and Corlett, P and Gerstein, MB and Hoyle, RH}, Title = {Estimation of Bedtimes of Reddit Users: Integrated Analysis of Time Stamps and Surveys.}, Journal = {JMIR formative research}, Volume = {7}, Pages = {e38112}, Year = {2023}, Month = {January}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.2196/38112}, Abstract = {<h4>Background</h4>Individuals with later bedtimes have an increased risk of difficulties with mood and substances. To investigate the causes and consequences of late bedtimes and other sleep patterns, researchers are exploring social media as a data source. Pioneering studies inferred sleep patterns directly from social media data. While innovative, these efforts are variously unscalable, context dependent, confined to specific sleep parameters, or rest on untested assumptions, and none of the reviewed studies apply to the popular Reddit platform or release software to the research community.<h4>Objective</h4>This study builds on this prior work. We estimate the bedtimes of Reddit users from the times tamps of their posts, test inference validity against survey data, and release our model as an R package (The R Foundation).<h4>Methods</h4>We included 159 sufficiently active Reddit users with known time zones and known, nonanomalous bedtimes, together with the time stamps of their 2.1 million posts. The model's form was chosen by visualizing the aggregate distribution of the timing of users' posts relative to their reported bedtimes. The chosen model represents a user's frequency of Reddit posting by time of day, with a flat portion before bedtime and a quadratic depletion that begins near the user's bedtime, with parameters fitted to the data. This model estimates the bedtimes of individual Reddit users from the time stamps of their posts. Model performance is assessed through k-fold cross-validation. We then apply the model to estimate the bedtimes of 51,372 sufficiently active, nonbot Reddit users with known time zones from the time stamps of their 140 million posts.<h4>Results</h4>The Pearson correlation between expected and observed Reddit posting frequencies in our model was 0.997 on aggregate data. On average, posting starts declining 45 minutes before bedtime, reaches a nadir 4.75 hours after bedtime that is 87% lower than the daytime rate, and returns to baseline 10.25 hours after bedtime. The Pearson correlation between inferred and reported bedtimes for individual users was 0.61 (P<.001). In 90 of 159 cases (56.6%), our estimate was within 1 hour of the reported bedtime; 128 cases (80.5%) were within 2 hours. There was equivalent accuracy in hold-out sets versus training sets of k-fold cross-validation, arguing against overfitting. The model was more accurate than a random forest approach.<h4>Conclusions</h4>We uncovered a simple, reproducible relationship between Reddit users' reported bedtimes and the time of day when high daytime posting rates transition to low nighttime posting rates. We captured this relationship in a model that estimates users' bedtimes from the time stamps of their posts. Limitations include applicability only to users who post frequently, the requirement for time zone data, and limits on generalizability. Nonetheless, it is a step forward for inferring the sleep parameters of social media users passively at scale. Our model and precomputed estimated bedtimes of 50,000 Reddit users are freely available.}, Doi = {10.2196/38112}, Key = {fds369074} } @article{fds357919, Author = {Andrade, FC and Davisson, EK and Kwiatek, S and Hoyle, RH}, Title = {Navigating Still Waters of Infertility: Role of Goal Features in Coping with a Thwarted Goal.}, Journal = {International journal of behavioral medicine}, Volume = {29}, Number = {2}, Pages = {188-198}, Year = {2022}, Month = {April}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s12529-021-10006-0}, Abstract = {<h4>Background</h4>The infertility experience is often surrounded by frustration and discouragement associated with the thwarted goal to have a child. Though research has identified commonly used strategies to cope with infertility, this study is the first to examine how different goal attributes and processes associated with the experience of infertility relate to coping strategy use and psychological distress.<h4>Method</h4>Women (N = 353) recruited from online support forums reported on the nature of their goal to have a child, their psychological distress, and their use of strategies to cope with the failure to achieve that goal.<h4>Results</h4>Women reported high striving toward a goal high in importance and commitment, coupled with high goal-related stress and feeling that achievement is blocked. Consistent with the notion that coping strategy use is specific to the features of the experience, no single goal attribute nor combination of attributes consistently accounted for coping strategy use, suggesting that the latter may be specific to the cognitions and processes of pursuit of the goal to have a child. With one exception, perceptions of impediment were better predictors of psychological distress than any level of perceived facilitators of goal pursuit, positing potential targets for future psychological interventions.<h4>Conclusion</h4>Understanding how women cope with infertility may require a detailed conceptualization of their goal to have a child. In the present sample, dynamic processes and coping strategies that otherwise detract from success were generally beneficial by providing alternatives to the pursuit of a thwarted goal.}, Doi = {10.1007/s12529-021-10006-0}, Key = {fds357919} } @article{fds362332, Author = {Murray, DW and Kurian, J and Soliday Hong and SL and Andrade, FC}, Title = {Meta-analysis of early adolescent self-regulation interventions: Moderation by intervention and outcome type.}, Journal = {Journal of adolescence}, Volume = {94}, Number = {2}, Pages = {101-117}, Publisher = {WILEY}, Year = {2022}, Month = {February}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/jad.12010}, Abstract = {<h4>Introduction</h4>Self-regulation has been identified as a highly promising target for interventions promoting broad wellbeing across development; however, there appear to be notable limitations in efficacy for early adolescents in particular. One possible reason is that the emotion regulation needs of youth have not been intentionally targeted in many interventions for this age group. The aim of this study is to advance understanding of how different intervention approaches defined from a clear theoretical model may impact different types of outcomes and with regard to different types of measures.<h4>Methods</h4>We conducted a systematic literature review of four databases using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines and identified 33 studies of early adolescents (aged 10-15) using five different intervention approaches that were methodologically rigorous (e.g., randomized controlled trial design with low risk of bias). Studies were conducted predominantly in North America (58%), and Western Europe (30%).<h4>Results</h4>A two-level mixed-effects meta-analysis indicated a small but significant overall intervention effect (Hedges g = 0.12). When examined by intervention type, effects were significant only for approaches focusing predominantly on emotion regulation (g = 0.20), which significantly improved behavioral outcomes as well as emotional outcomes. Approaches examining cognitive regulation, parent training, physical activity, and working memory did not differ significantly from zero. Across intervention types, outcomes demonstrated the largest effects for youth report of emotional distress.<h4>Conclusion</h4>Overall, results suggest that emotion regulation may be a critically important self-regulation mechanism during early adolescence and demonstrates value in the use of applied theoretical frameworks to operationalize intervention approaches and outcomes.}, Doi = {10.1002/jad.12010}, Key = {fds362332} } @article{fds356923, Author = {Davisson, EK and Hoyle, RH and Andrade, F}, Title = {Additive or Multiplicative?

In a large, regionally representative sample of U.S. adolescents, we linked self-reported demographics, self-regulation, and academic outcomes to Census data assessing neighborhood context and administrative data measuring economic disadvantage and achievement levels on state end-of-grade tests. We find inconsistent evidence for a risk-buffering role of self-regulation in the prediction of academic outcomes.

In Study 2 (N = 469), we used a more diverse sample to confirm the factor structure. In both studies, bivariate correlations suggested that people who more frequently engage in REPs tend to have lower relationship satisfaction.

The present studies tested the hypothesis that this is a defensive process. In support of this hypothesis, Study 1 (N = 160), showed that self-affirmation attenuates the tendency for people with high self-esteem to reduce their contingencies of self-worth following self-threat. Furthermore, Study 2 (N = 286), showed that this tendency was more prevalent among people with defensive self-esteem than among those with secure self-esteem.

Search criteria included nutritional interventions implemented among students attending US colleges, written in English, and published in peer-reviewed journals between 2000 and 2015. The authors conducted a systematic search of 1413 articles, and an in-depth review of 30 articles. The authors evaluated the following: (a) participants; (b) research design; (c) assessment instruments; (d) outcome measures; (e) results; and (f) methodological issues.<h4>Results:</h4>Short-term interventions showed promise in promoting positive dietary changes, which can serve as a protective factor for developing overweight and obesity. Methodological issues related to lack of comparison groups and minimal long-term follow-up do not allow researchers to determine if the interventions were the cause of the change, or if these changes are sustained over time. Studies that have a comparison group, use visual displays, or have longer durations, may maximize outcomes, improving long-term effects.<h4>Conclusions:</h4>Nutrition interventions can effectively change dietary habits among college students. This can lead to healthy weight management and reduce the risk for overweight and obesity. Future research should consider the highlighted methodological issues to improve the quality of nutrition interventions.}, Doi = {10.1177/0260106018785528}, Key = {fds338186} } | |
