This is a promising avenue for future work, as the impact of rapid social and cultural changes in China is still unclear and rates of psychological distress and outcomes, such as depression and suicidal behavior is on the rise (Daly, 2009). …”

Despite the well established influence of peer experiences on adolescent attitudes, thoughts, and behaviors, surprisingly little research has examined the importance of peer context and the increased prevalence of depressive symptoms accompanying the transition into adolescence. Examination of social networks may provide some insight into the role of peers in the vulnerability of some adolescents to depression. To address this issue, we leveraged an existing sample of 5,563 Chinese 10th graders to incorporate social network data into a multilevel regression model of depressive symptoms. We found that, in this sample, being nominated as a friend was more important than being nominated as most liked. Social network centrality was significantly associated with depression; those adolescents who were less connected were more likely to suffer from depression. The risk of depression for those who were marginal members of classroom social networks was substantial. These findings suggest that a social network perspective could help to increase the effectiveness of programs aimed at preventing adolescent depression.

“…In case of psychogenic carcinogenesis the cancerogenic factor is the chronic psychoemotional stress, the damaging influence of which is well known and can be noticed at all levels of the research of a human -from genic level to population one. The definite indicator of the existence of chronic psycho-emotional stress at man can be anxiety disorders and affective disorders, especially depression (subdepression) that has been considered the global problem of the modern society and world medicine (Daly, 2009). It is believed that cancer patients with depression have somato-psychic origin and is secondary in relation to somatic pathology.…”

This paper aims to give a participatory evaluation of a real application that was put into action in a free-standing senior community. Residents assisted the research team in developing and implementing the first stage of a project that was created to help old people in place and maintain functional independence by using the participatory assessment process. We selected some NGO’s, all of whom gave us the go-ahead to set up the application. The data were generally well received by the locals, who did not feel that they interfered with their daily lives. There were three stages to the adoption and acceptance of the sensors: familiarisation, adaptation and curiosity, and full integration.
