A simultaneous concept analysis of resilience, coping, posttraumatic growth, and thriving.

Background: Research has shifted in recent decades from a focus on negative effects of adversity, trauma, and stress to protective factors and positive outcomes. Resilience and related concepts (coping, posttraumatic growth, thriving, and preparedness) reflect this shift. However, the current state of literature reflects conceptualization challenges in relation to these terms, which blur their differentiation.

Associations between Place of Birth, Type of Attendant, and Small for Gestational Age Births among Pregnant non-Hispanic Black Medicaid Recipients.

Introduction: Although non-Hispanic Black women have increased risks of adverse birth outcomes compared with non-Hispanic white women in the United States, there is a lack of research specifically focusing on non-Hispanic Black women. Thus, this study's purpose was to evaluate whether place of birth and type of attendant used during labor is associated with having a newborn born small for gestational age (SGA) among non-Hispanic Black Medicaid recipients.

Methods: This study used 2017 Natality data from the National Vital Statistics System for non-Hispanic Black women who used Medicaid as a source of payment (N = 322,604).

"It's the nature of the beast": Community resilience among gender diverse individuals.

Marginalization causes gender diverse individuals to experience increased stress compared with cisgender individuals, such as social stigma and discrimination, which can lead to poor physical and mental health outcomes. This population uses various resources to cope with these challenges, including community social support. This qualitative research aimed to understand how gender diverse individuals perceive their community resilience.
