The purpose of the study was to expand existing knowledge of the determinants of health for community-dwelling young-old and old-old people. A subsample (n = 2413) from the Health Canada Supplement to the 1994 National Population Health Survey was analyzed. The factors examined were biographic attributes, sociodemographic indicators, sense of coherence (SOC), mastery, self-esteem, informal social support, and use of health care services. Hierarchical regression analyses revealed that mastery and SOC were strongly related to health status and perceived health. Strategies discussed herein will help practitioners ensure that older adults' mastery and SOC are supported and enhanced.

School of Nursing and Health, Zhengzhou University, 101 Science Avenue, Zhengzhou, Henan, China.
Background: Enhancing nursing undergraduates' sense of coherence is crucial for the growth of the nursing workforce. Yet, existing research primarily examines the aggregate level of sense of coherence among nursing undergraduates and its correlations with other variables, overlooking the individual heterogeneity in nursing undergraduates' sense of coherence in nursing. This study aimed to identify different subgroups of nursing undergraduates' sense of coherence and explore the influencing factors pertinent to each subgroup.

Background: Pain and subjective cognitive decline (SCD) are common sequala of breast cancer (BC) treatment. Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are associated with pain and adverse health outcomes in noncancer population. Sense of coherence (SOC) reflects the disposition that life is manageable and predictable.

Broad-temperature optical thermometry necessitates materials with exceptional sensitivity and stability across varied thermal conditions, presenting challenges for conventional systems. Here, we report a lead-free, vacancy-ordered perovskite Cs2TeCl6, that achieves precise temperature sensing through a novel combination of self-trapped excitons (STEs) photoluminescence (PL) lifetime modulation and unprecedented fifth-order phonon anharmonicity. The STEs PL lifetime demonstrates a highly temperature-sensitive response from 200 to 300 K, ideal for low-to-intermediate thermal sensing.

Background: The global shortage of midwives highlights the importance of understanding the factors that contribute to job satisfaction to improve retention in the profession.
Aim: To identify the indicating work related factors of job satisfaction in Swedish midwives and analyse the potential modifying effect of Sense of Coherence (SOC).
Methods: A national sample of midwives n = 1663 were included in the five hierarchical regression models with the outcome job satisfaction.
