“…Should causal links among attributional dimensions, adherence to sport injury rehabilitation programs, and physical recovery be demonstrated in future research, attributionally-based interventions (e.g., Rothman, Salovey, Turvey and Fishkin, 1993) can be applied to increase perceptions of personal control and, ultimately, enhance the rehabilitation of athletes with injuries.…”

“…Secondly, research has shown that high hope individuals can cope better with obstacles because they are prone to having multiple routes, allowing them to better handle or avoid the stress and negative emotions often associated with setbacks (Snyder, 2002). Laskey, Fox and Crask (1995) (Banks et al, 1995;Meyerowitz and Chaiken, 1987;Rothman et al, 1993) and smoking cessation (Wilson et al, 1990;Wong and McMurray, 2002).

This study examined the communication effects of smoking cessation by using message framing (positive messages/negative messages) and audience situation (smoker/nonsmoker and high/low self-efficacy). The study used 207 valid homogeneous subjects and a between-subject experiment method was employed for analyses. The results showed that the communication effects were influenced by the interactive effects of message framing and audience situation, and for smokers, positive messages have a more significant effect than negative ones. In addition, positive messages with low self-efficacy have a better effect. The study concludes that different message framing have a variety of communication effects on audiences within different self-efficacy levels and audience situations.

“…Three studies (Bundek et al, 1993;Murray and McMillan, 1993;Rothman et al, 1993) investigated locus of control and found that internal locus of control predicted breast self-examination (BSE), showed that BSE was associated with a low belief in the role of powerful others and found that messages that emphasized internal locus of control were more successful than information-only messages.…”

Summary This retrospective analysis of psychological predictors of attendance studied the women from the annual screening arm of the United Kingdom Coordinating Committee on Cancer Research (UKCCCR) trial of annual screening mammography for the early detection of breast cancer. Some women attended screening at the first invitation in year 1 (attenders), others did not attend for screening at any time (non-attenders), whereas a third group delayed attending until year 2 (ambivalent attenders). A total of 147 women were recruited to the study: 80 attenders, 28 non-attenders and 39 ambivalent attenders. It proved extremely difficult to contact non-attenders to take part in the study. Non-attenders were significantly more depressed on the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale; had experienced more miscarriages, stillbirths or terminations of pregnancy; were less knowledgeable about mammography; and were displeased to have received an invitation to screening. Whereas non-attenders are unlikely ever to attend breast screening because of their long-standing attitudes and preferred coping styles, ambivalent attenders may become more amenable to screening with the passage of time. In this study such women were persuaded to attend in year 2 with a simple, cost-effective intervention: an additional invitation letter after a year.Keywords: attendance; breast screening; depression; perinatal losses; psychology Low take-up rates for breast screening examinations pose a serious challenge for health promotion. Attenders and non-attenders for mammography have now been compared in a variety of UK, European and US settings, and the studies of Fallowfield, Rimer, Vernon, Frazier, Sutton and Polednak are useful exemplars.
