This study examined the contribution of parental conditional regard (PCR) and societal conditional regard (SCR) - divided into positive and negative regard - to high school dropouts' adjustment (i.e., well-being, loneliness, and future orientation) along the different stages of the dropout process. Specifically, the current study focused on dropouts from a traditional community, where dropping out was accompanied by various social repercussions. The study, conducted in Israel among Ultraorthodox Jewish males, included 261 participants, ages 14-21 (M = 17, SD = 1.17), who were at different stages in the dropout process. Structural equation modeling indicated a negative contribution of parental conditional negative regard to adjustment, while societal conditional positive regard made a positive contribution to adjustment. Moreover, dropouts indicated higher parental and societal conditional regard than students at other stages of the dropout process. Findings highlight the importance of SCR and PCR in understanding the adjustment of dropouts in traditional communities.

Developing an Australian Value Set for the Recovering Quality of Life-Utility Index (ReQoL-UI) instrument using Discrete Choice Experiment with Duration.

Value Health

January 2025

Monash University Health Economics Group, School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, Monash University, Level 4, 553 St Kilda Road, Melbourne VIC 3004, Australia.

Objectives: The Recovering Quality of Life-Utility Index (ReQoL-UI) instrument was designed to measure the quality of life outcomes for people over 16 years of age with mental health problems. We aim to elicit societal preferences for the ReQoL-UI health states to facilitate better decision-making in Australia.

Methods: A discrete choice experiment (DCE) with duration was embedded in a self-complete online survey and administered to a representative sample (n=1019) of the Australian adult population aged 18 years and more, stratified for age, sex and geographic location.

A new SF-6Dv2 value set based on a hybrid model using SG, cTTO, and DCE data.

Soc Sci Med

December 2024

Département de gestion, Evaluation et politique de santé, School of Public Health, University of Montreal, Montreal, QC, Canada; CR-IUSMM, CIUSSS de l'Est de l'Île de Montréal, 7101 Parc Avenue, Montreal, QC, H3N 1X9, Canada.

Objective: To develop a value set for the Short-Form 6-Dimension version 2 (SF-6Dv2) by incorporating societal preferences obtained from three distinct approaches: Standard Gamble (SG), composite Time Trade-Off (cTTO), and Discrete Choice Experiment (DCE).

Methods: Data were gathered from the general population of Quebec, Canada, using the standardized valuation protocol developed by EuroQol for the cTTO and DCE tasks, as well as the valuation protocol developed by Sheffield University for the SG. The SG and cTTO data were analyzed using OLS, GLS, GLS Tobit, and heteroskedastic Tobit models.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study assesses the prevalence of co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders in Australia using data from two national surveys conducted in 2007 and 2020-2022, noting significant patterns and correlations.
  • - Approximately 46% of individuals with a mental or substance use disorder also had multiple diagnosable conditions, with little change in overall prevalence since 2007, although young adults aged 16-24 showed a significant increase in co-occurrence.
  • - The findings indicate that co-occurring disorders are still a major issue in Australia, especially among younger individuals, highlighting the need for ongoing development of interventions that address broader societal and contextual influences.

Autistic People's Experience of Empathy and the Autistic Empathy Deficit Narrative.

Autism Adulthood

September 2024

Department of Education, Childhood, and Inclusion, Sheffield Hallam University, Sheffield, United Kingdom.

Background: There is a dominant discourse, both in clinical texts and throughout the academic literature, that autistic people lack empathy; however, over the past decade, both clinicians and academics have increasingly rejected deficit-based descriptions of autism in favor of more nuanced explanations of the experience of autistic individuals in a social world.

Methods: This study asked 76 autistic individuals about their own experience of empathy and the oft-cited empathy deficit. Data were thematically analyzed and revealed a wide array of empathic self-concepts among respondents.

Objective: The aim of this study is to provide Chinese utility weights for the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Utility Measure-Core 10 Dimensions (EORTC QLU-C10D) which is a preference-based cancer-specific utility instrument derived from the EORTC QLQ-C30.

Methods: We conducted an online survey of the general population in China, with quota sampling for age and gender. Each respondent was asked to complete a discrete choice experimental survey consisting of 16 randomly selected choice sets.
