The nature of anger in people with multiple sclerosis: a qualitative study.

People with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) who experience higher levels of anger also report poorer quality of life (QoL). This qualitative study explored the subjective experience of anger amongst pwMS, and how anger influenced their lives. A series of semi-structured, face-to-face interviews were conducted with 20 pwMS.

Social cognitions measured in 4 to 6 year olds are predictive of objectively measured physical activity.

Objective: This study tested whether social cognitions from the reasoned action approach (RAA) can be reliably measured in a sample of primary school children (aged 4-6 years) and whether these RAA measures are predictive of physical activity.

Design: Longitudinal observational study with repeated measures over six months.

Measures: RAA variables were measured using a novel choice paradigm between physically active and sedentary pastimes.
