The impact of childhood sexual abuse and paternal rejection on economic marginalization in adulthood: A prospective population-based study of women in Sweden.

Background: Childhood maltreatment has detrimental health consequences. Risk for economic marginalization in adulthood is less clear.

Objective: To assess prospective associations between sexual abuse, paternal rejection and maternal rejection in childhood and indicators of economic marginalization.

Early structured communication between general practitioner, sick-listed patient, and employer: Results and lessons learned from a pragmatic trial in the Capacity Note project.

Background And Objective: Early and collaborative interventions are desirable to prevent long-term sick leave and promote sustainable return-to-work (RTW). The aim of this study was to evaluate if the use of the Capacity Note - a brief intervention promoting early and structured communication between general practitioners (GPs), patients, and employers - had an impact on length of sick leave in patients with common mental disorders (CMDs) in primary healthcare.

Method: In a pragmatic trial, GPs at eight primary healthcare centres were randomized to provide the intervention or control and recruited eligible patients: employed women and men, 18-64 years, who visited a GP due to CMD and became or were (<4 months) full- or part-time sick-listed.

Occupational prestige and future sickness absence and disability pension in women and men: a Swedish nationwide prospective cohort study.

Background: Little is known about associations between occupational prestige, that is, the symbolic evaluation and social positioning of occupations, and sickness absence (SA) or disability pension (DP). We explored whether occupational prestige was associated with future SA or DP among women and men.

Methods: A Swedish 4-year prospective cohort study of all those in paid work and aged 25-59 in 2010 ( = 2,605,227; 47% women), using linked microdata from three nationwide registers and Standard International Occupational Prestige Scale values, categorised as 'very low', 'low', 'medium', 'high', or 'very high'.

Person-centred care and the work-related health and job satisfaction of health and social care professionals: protocol for a prospective longitudinal cohort study combined with qualitative studies (the PCC@Work project).

Background: The interplay of ethical stress, heavy workloads, and job dissatisfaction poses challenges to both the recruitment and retention of health and social care professionals. Person-centred care, rooted in ethical principles, involves collaborative care, and is expected to improve care and job satisfaction. However, prior research on the impact of person-centred care practices on professionals' work-related health and job satisfaction has yielded mixed results, and most studies emanate from residential care.

Managers' attitudes to depression and the association with their rating of how work capacity is affected in employees with common mental disorders.

Objective: This explorative, cross-sectional study assessed the association between managers' attitudes to employee depression and their rating of how common mental disorders (CMDs) affect employee work capacity.

Results: A principal component analysis was performed for the nine variables concerning managers' rating of how CMDs can affect work capacity among employees. The analysis resulted in two factors: task-oriented- and relational work capacity.

How gender and low mental health literacy are related to unmet need for mental healthcare: a cross-sectional population-based study in Sweden.

Background: Men are more likely to have unmet need for mental healthcare than women. However, an under-investigated aspect of the gender difference is the role of mental health literacy. This study investigated how combinations of gender and mental health literacy were related to two indicators of unmet need: not perceiving a need for mental healthcare despite poor mental health, and refraining from seeking mental healthcare.

Validity of the Capacity to Work Index: Development of an Instrument to Measure Work Capacity in Relation to Depression and Anxiety in the General Working Population.

Purpose: To develop an index to assess capacity to work in relation to common mental disorders (CMDs) in the general working population and field test its psychometric properties.

Methods: Content analysis of three qualitative studies on people (n = 49) with their own experiences of working with CMD guided the items selected for the index. Face and content validity and test-retest reliability were performed.

Differences in how women and men in a Swedish population-based sample think about sick leave: A cross-sectional vignette study.

Background: Gender differences in attitudes towards depression gives reason to believe that sociocultural gender norms play a role in other areas.

Objective: The aim was to test (i) if the likelihood to think that sick leave with depression symptoms is not reasonable varies between women and men, and (ii) if the likelihood to think sick leave is not reasonable varies depending on the gender of the individual with depression symptoms.

Methods: A study population of 3147 participants responded to a web-survey with a written case briefly describing a man or woman with symptoms of depression.

Level of education and sustainable return to work among long-term sick-listed workers with depression: a register-based cohort study (The Norwegian GP-DEP Study).

Objectives: Sick-listed workers with depression are at higher risk of long-term, recurrent sickness absence and work disability, suggesting reduced likelihood of sustainable return to work (SRTW). Though likelihood of RTW has been associated with education level, less is known about the association over time, post-RTW. We aimed to investigate associations between educational level and SRTW among long-term sick-listed workers with depression.

Domestic Factors as Determinant of Sickness Absence with Psychiatric Disorders: A Scoping Review of Nordic Research Published between 2010-2019.

Uneven division of domestic factors may contribute to sex differences in sickness absence with psychiatric disorders. The aim of this scoping review was to compile current Nordic research on domestic factors and sickness absence with psychiatric disorders. A systematic search was performed to identify studies from the Nordic countries published between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2019.

Healthcare professionals' experiences of job satisfaction when providing person-centred care: a systematic review of qualitative studies.

Objectives: This qualitative systematic review aimed to explore and synthesise healthcare professionals' (HCPs) experiences of job satisfaction when providing person-centred care (PCC) in healthcare settings in Europe.

Method: This systematic review of qualitative studies was followed by a thematic synthesis applying an inductive approach. Studies concerning HCPs and different levels of healthcare in Europe were eligible for inclusion.

Rehabilitation cooperation and person-centred dialogue meeting for patients sick-listed for common mental disorders: 12 months follow-up of sick leave days, symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress and work ability - a pragmatic cluster randomised controlled trial from the CO-WORK-CARE project.

Objectives: To study whether early and enhanced cooperation within the primary care centres (PCC) combined with workplace cooperation via a person-centred employer dialogue meeting can reduce days on sick leave compared with usual care manager contact for patients on sick leave because of common mental disorders (CMD). Secondary aim: to study lapse of CMD symptoms, perceived Work Ability Index (WAI) and quality of life (QoL) during 12 months.

Design: Pragmatic cluster randomised controlled trial, randomisation at PCC level.

Healthcare professionals discourses on men and masculinities in sexual healthcare: a focus group study.

Studies have reported that men's uptake of sexual health services is low, that these services make them feel vulnerable, and that they experience sexual healthcare (SHC) as stressful, heteronormative, potentially sexualised and "tailored for women". They also suggest that healthcare professionals (HCPs) working in SHC view masculinity as problematic, and situated in private relationships. This study aimed to explore how HCPs construct the gendered social location in SHC, specifically in terms of masculinity and a perception that masculinity is situated in relationships.

Psychosocial resources predict frequent pain differently for men and women: A prospective cohort study.

Introduction: Psychosocial resources, psychological and social factors like self-efficacy and social support have been suggested as important assets for individuals with chronic pain, but the importance of psychosocial resources for the development of pain is sparsely examined, especially sex and gender differences. The aim of this study was to investigate associations between psychosocial resources and sex on the development of frequent pain in a general population sample, and to deepen the knowledge about sex and gender patterns.

Methods: A sample from the Swedish Health Assets Project, a longitudinal cohort study, included self-reported data from 2263 participants, 53% women, with no frequent pain at baseline.

Managers' sick leave recommendations for employees with common mental disorders: a cross-sectional video vignette study.

Background: To better understand the initial phases of sickness absence due to common mental disorders (CMD), the aim of the present video vignette study was to test the following three hypotheses: (1) Managers who have negative attitudes towards employees with CMD will not recommend sick leave. (2) Managers with experience of CMD recommend sick leave to a significantly higher extent than managers lacking this experience. (3) Managers with previous experience of recommending sick leave for people with CMD will recommend sick leave to a significantly higher extent also based on the vignettes.

General self-efficacy and social support in men and women with pain - irregular sex patterns of cross-sectional and longitudinal associations in a general population sample.

Background: The study of sex and gender patterns in psychosocial resources is a growing field of interest in pain research with importance for pain rehabilitation and prevention. The aims of this study were first, to estimate cross-sectional differences in psychosocial resources (general self-efficacy and social support) across men and women in a population with frequent musculoskeletal pain (pain in the back or neck/shoulder nearly every day or now and again during the week for the last 12 months) and to compare these differences with a population with no frequent pain. Second, to examine if psychosocial resources at baseline were associated with pain at follow-up among men and women in the frequent pain population.

How the current non-significant effects of person-centred care on nurses' outcomes could be abated by the WE-CARE roadmap enablers: A discursive paper.

Aim: To describe the non-significant results in nurses' outcomes after the implementation of person-centred care (PCC) and discuss if and how enablers of the WE-CARE roadmap for implementing PCC could abate the non-significant results.

Design: In this paper, an innovative framework of enablers in the WE-CARE Roadmap is explained in relation to increased PCC and nurses' job satisfaction.

Method: Findings from a scoping review and published material provided how PCC and nurses' outcomes connect.

Burnout among midwives-the factorial structure of the burnout assessment tool and an assessment of burnout levels in a Swedish national sample.

Background: Many workplaces, within the healthcare sector, experience high rates of mental health problems such as burnout, anxiety, and depression, due to poor psychosocial working conditions and midwives are not an exception. To develop preventive interventions, epidemiologic surveillance of burnout levels, and their relation to professional specific working conditions is needed. Aims of this study is to assess the construct validity of the Burnout Assessment Tool (BAT) in the context of Swedish midwives, to evaluate whether the item responses can be combined into a single score and differential item functioning regarding age.

Notions About Men and Masculinities Among Health Care Professionals Working With Men's Sexual Health: A Focus Group Study.

Health care professionals' (HCPs) notions about gender may influence the provision and quality of care. If care-seeking men are met by HCPs holding idealized and stereotypical notions of masculinity, this could reinforce barriers to adequate care. This study explored notions about men and masculinities among HCPs working with men's sexual health in Sweden.

Capability to make well-founded decisions: an interview study of people with experience of sickness absence who have common mental disorders.

Background: Sickness absence and rehabilitation processes can be challenging for an individual. At a time of generally reduced capacity, the individual must comprehend and navigate through several options. The aim of this study was to investigate the prerequisites for support, knowledge and information related to decision making experienced by people on sickness absence due to common mental disorders.

Association of stigmatizing attitudes with people's opinion of depression as a valid reason for sickness absence: A Swedish vignette study.

Background: Depression is a common cause of sickness absence (SA) and also highly associated with stigma. Few studies have addressed the role of stigma in relation to SA.

Objective: To investigate if attitudes to depression were associated with the public's opinion of depression as a valid reason of SA.

The Capacity Note: a communication facilitator in the sick leave process of patients with common mental disorders - a qualitative study of user perceptions.

Objectives: To describe the development of a communication facilitator, the Capacity Note, for the sick leave process of patients with common mental disorders (CMDs) in primary care, and to explore users' perceptions of it.

Design: Qualitive study.

Setting: Primary healthcare in Region Västra Götaland, Sweden.

Job satisfaction in midwives and its association with organisational and psychosocial factors at work: a nation-wide, cross-sectional study.

Background: Midwives report a challenging work environment globally, with high levels of burnout, insufficient work resources and low job satisfaction. The primary objective of this study was to identify factors in the organisational and psychosocial work environment associated with midwives' job satisfaction. A secondary objective was to identify differences in how midwives assess the organisational and psychosocial work environment compared to Swedish benchmarks.
