Consumer recovery processes refer to social Connectedness, Hope, Identity, Meaning in life, and Empowerment (“CHIME”). This study examined if expectations of change in depression could mediate the relationship between CHIME recovery processes and depression severity. Participants were patients who consulted clinical psychologists at primary care clinics. Measures of depression change expectancy, CHIME recovery processes, and depression symptoms were administered. Change expectancy partially mediated the relationship between Hope and depression severity. The same was found for Identity, but Identity also mediated the relationship between change expectancy and depression. Thus, Hope may reduce depression by improving change expectancies, whereas Identity and change expectancy may have reciprocal influences that alter depression. Findings suggest that the CHIME recovery processes may facilitate recovery from depression.

Accurate measures of changes in workplace attitudes toward people with disabilities are required to determine whether employee training and other interventions are effective. This critical systematic review searched Medline, PsycInfo, Google Scholar, Cinahl, and Cochrane Collaboration for suitable instruments published between 2005 and 2015, and for those published earlier if still indicated to be in active use. In total, 13 scans were conducted. Inclusion criteria included wildcard and free text variations of workplace attitudes, adults with disabilities, and competitive employment. In total, 9 of 49 studies were selected for review. Data from each of these were categorized through the PICO model (Population, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcome), mapped within a PRISMA flow chart, and analyzed through an 18-point weight of evidence framework for empirical quality, relevance, and evidence of theoretical validity. Weight of evidence scores for empirical quality ranged from 10 to 16 out of a possible score of 18. None of the studies provided an explicit evidence of theoretical validity. Measures of responsiveness to change in workplace attitudes appear less well validated than those for single timeframes.

The study explored the lived experiences of people with injury events in their residential environment. Participants were 65 people with disabilities and chronic diseases in Sweden with residential living injuries (females = 40 (61.5%), men = 25 (38.5%), age range 20–90 year old). They completed qualitative interviews on their experiences of injury events in their residential environment. Thematic analysis of the data yielded evidence to suggest the following issues: (1) individual coping resource preferences; (2) support services; and (3) family engagement needs. Participants coped utilizing positive reframing of their living with injury and the incidents they experienced. Social support functions were important for safety in the housing environment. Rather disconcerting is the fact that participants would not always tell their social network about the risks and injuries they experienced.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of intersectionality of aging, place, and health for students studying in gerontological rehabilitation field. It is intended for use by students and practitioners working in senior living facilities, and by researchers focusing on aging topics from interdisciplinary perspectives. The book applies an ecological model to elucidate gerontology rehabilitation needs resources across the life courses, and employs the World Health Organization’s International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (WHO; ICF). The book is organized into four sections: (1) Background, (2) Aging, Health, and Function, (3) Conduct and Analysis, and (4) Translation and Future Directions. The Background section entails three chapters aimed to introduce the significance of an ecological approach in understanding the aging process and related rehabilitation support needs. It communicates the trends of aging and research focused on chronological age, place people living in, and consequential health status. The authors further illustrate the importance of the life-course theory in comprehending aging and cite examples from environmental, biological, and demographical factors that contribute to the health status in later year life. The Aging, Health, and Function section consists of eight chapters including survival and mortality, late-life mobility, cognitive functioning, depression, comorbidity, frailty and geriatric syndromes, falls, and traffic-related injuries and death. Each chapter begins with either a report of updated statistics or a demonstration of current developments in the fields. Information is well delivered via subgrouping titles from definitions to examples, and then to conclusions. The Conduct and Analysis and Translational research sections comprise five chapters about research methodology and relevant statistical models, social and behavioural interventions, and current and future implication directions. The two sections apply the ecological model applied in the book to the gerontology-related topics studied, making this book a handy reference tool for researchers when conducting aging research. This book utilizes a variety of instructional features such a highlight boxes (named Pearls) to surprise the readers with heuristic comments, quotations, discussions, or questions. This book also makes good use of tables, charts, graphics, and figures to facilitate understanding of the materials presented. It also exploits an analogy

The purpose of this study was to validate the Vocational Rehabilitation-Service-Related Stress Scale (VRSS) with a sample of 429 vocational rehabilitation (VR) service personnel in Japan. Exploratory factor analysis was employed to determine the structure of the VRSS, and confirmatory factor analysis showed that the four-factor model had a good model fit. The internal consistency reliability of the VRSS, as measured by Cronbach's alpha, was .90. Results indicated that the VRSS is a valid and reliable measure that can be used to examine occupational stress in VR personnel. Work-related stress and quality assurance issues that pertain to the delivery of VR services are discussed.

This study explored family relationship dynamics of men with Adult Onset Epileptic Seizures (AOES) following an elective lobectomy procedure to address their frequent seizure activity. Informants were five Australian men with history of adult-onset epilepsy for which they received neurosurgery (aged 34–59 years). Thematic analysis following semi-structured interviews yielded three themes: role marginalization, role dependency and role enmeshment. All the men reported significant role marginalization in not being consulted about everyday life activities. They also reported to experience decisional role shifting towards their spouses or partners and children post-surgery. Their family role enmeshment experiences included being perceived by spouses or partners as adult–children and by their children as a parent–child. However, some of the men were accepting of these role definitions and to add rather than take away from their health-related quality of life.
