Profiles of Black Emerging Adults Exposure to Racism-Based Police Violence and Associated Mental Health Outcomes.

This study characterizes the profile of Black emerging adults aged 18-29 generated from sociodemographic characteristics and indicators of police contact and exposure to racism-based police violence (RPV), and the relationship between profiles and traumatic stress symptoms. A purposive sample of 300 Black emerging adults was recruited for this exploratory study. Cluster analysis (CA) was performed to generate profiles of this sample.

Police Violence Exposure and Associated Health Outcomes Among Latinx Adults in the United States: An Integrative Review.

Police violence exposure among Latinx adults in the United States is increasingly concerning due to its prevalence and associated risks for adverse mental, behavioral, and physical health outcomes. This integrative review appraised studies published from 2003 to 2023 that examine the relationship between police violence exposure and negative health outcomes in Latinx adults. Using structured search terms, articles were identified in APA PsycInfo and PubMed databases, supplemented by a gray literature search and citation mining.

PAHPhysRAD: A Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine Research Tool for Segmentation and Radiomic Feature Extraction.

Introduction: Segmentation and analysis of organs at risks (OARs) and tumor volumes are integral concepts in the development of radiotherapy treatment plans and prediction of patients' treatment outcomes.

Aims: To develop a research tool, PAHPhysRAD, that can be used to semi- and fully automate segmentation of OARs. In addition, the proposed software seeks to extract 3214 radiomic features from tumor volumes and user-specified dose-volume parameters.

Health Impact of Racism-Based Experiences Among Black African Immigrant Adults in the United States: An Integrative Review.

Racism-based experiences among Black African immigrants in the United States are a growing concern due to the prevalence of these events and risk for negative health (mental, behavioral, and physical) outcomes. This integrative review appraised published studies (2012-2023) addressing the relationship between racism-based experiences and adverse health for Black African immigrants. Articles were identified using structured search terms in several databases (APA PsycINFO, CINAHL, PubMed, Web of Science), Google Scholar, and citation mining.

Prevalence and Correlates of Exposure (Direct and Indirect) to Perceived Racism-Based Police Violence among Black Emerging Adult College Students.

A growing body of evidence makes plain that exposure to perceived racism-based events, particularly for Black emerging adults aged 18-29, represents a major public health concern in the United States given its widespread prevalence and documented association with adverse health outcomes. However, research on the prevalence and correlates of exposure to perceived racism-based police violence (RPV) for Black emerging adults is scant. The current study examines the prevalence and correlates of RPV exposure among a sample of 300 Black emerging adult college students, utilizing computer-assisted surveys.
