“…In addition, the correlational nature of the data precludes the ability to make any causal claims about the relations among the revised TMIM's constructs, despite the theory's ability to provide a causal explanation. Relatedly, the self‐report nature of the data regarding such a sensitive and potentially stigmatized topic (Foster & Byers, ) presents the possibility of a social desirability bias in participants' responses. Further, the 2‐week time period separating the data collections may not have been enough to adequately capture information seeking and provision processes.…”

To investigate how individuals seek and disclose information related to testing for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in sexual relationships, this study utilizes the revised theory of motivated information management (TMIM; Afifi & Morse, 2009). As part of a longitudinal design, 199 participants completed questionnaires assessing TMIM constructs. The hypothesized model was supported for individuals as seekers and providers of information regarding STI testing behaviors, and efficacy emerged as a mediator of seekers' negative emotional response and indirect information seeking and of providers' outcome expectancies and indirect information provision. Findings from this investigation support the workings of the revised TMIM and illustrate the importance of efficacy in information management decisions regarding STI testing behaviors between sexual partners.

“…A infeção por HPV, maioritariamente é eliminado nas mulheres ao fim de 1-2 anos, porém em outras mulheres podem vir a persistir, causando lesões mais graves designadas pré-cancerosas (SCUDELLARI, 2013;CASTRO et al 2014;MARTEL et al 2017). de intervenções, a gravidade do tipo do HPV, maior será o impacto psicossexual (WALLER, MARLOW, WARDLE, 2007;MORTENSEN, LARSEN, 2010;ROSEN et al 2010;MERIN, PACHANKIS, 2011;FOSTER, BYERS, 2013;CENDEJAS, SMITH-MCCUNE, KHAN, 2015;FOSTER, BYERS, 2016).…”

Ao atuar nos campos da prevenção de agravos e da promoção, manutenção e recuperação da saúde baseada em modelo de humanizada e centrada na integralidade do indivíduo, a PNIPIC contribui para o fortalecimento dos princípios fundamentais do SUS. Nesse sentido, o desenvolvimento desta Política Nacional de Práticas Integrativas e Complementares deve ser entendido como mais um passo no processo de implantação do SUS. A inserção das práticas intregrativas e complementares, especialmente na Atenção Primária (APS), corrobora com um dos seus principais atributos, a Competência Cultural. Esse atributo consiste no reconhecimento das diferentes necessidades dos grupos populacionais, suas características étnicas, raciais e culturais, entendendo suas representações dos processos saúde-enfermidade. Considerando a singularidade do indivíduo quanto aos processos de adoecimento e de saúde -, a PNPIC corrobora para a integralidade da atenção à saúde, princípio este que requer também a interação das ações e serviços existentes no SUS. Estudos têm demonstrado que tais abordagens ampliam a corresponsabilidade dos indivíduos pela saúde, contribuindo para o aumento do exercício da cidadania. Nesse volume serão apresentadas pesquisas quantitativas, qualitativas e revisões bibliográficas sobre essa temática.

“…Stigma is associated with sexual health outcomes, such as sexually transmitted infections (STIs) (Foster & Byers, 2013;Balfe et al, 2010) and teenage pregnancy (SmithBattle, 2013;Weimann, Rickert, Berenson, & Volk, 2005) leading to worries about judgment, guilt, shame and rejection among those who experience it. Being considered at high-risk for teenage pregnancy or to be singled out for a teen-pregnancy intervention may provoke similar sentiments among young women identified.…”

Research on the unintended consequences of targeting 'high-risk' young people for health interventions is limited. Using qualitative data from an evaluation of the Teens & Toddlers Pregnancy Prevention programme, we explored how young women experienced being identified as at risk for teenage pregnancy to understand the processes via which unintended consequences may occur. Schools' lack of transparency regarding the targeting strategy and criteria led to feelings of confusion and mistrust among some young women. Black and minority ethnic young women perceived that the assessment of their risk was based on stereotyping. Others felt their outgoing character was misinterpreted as signifying risk. To manage these imposed labels, stigma and reputational risks, young women responded to being targeted by adopting strategies, such as distancing, silence and refusal. To limit harmful consequences, programmes could involve prospective participants in determining their need for intervention or introduce programmes for young people at all levels of risk.
