“…Given that women with HIV infection are at higher risk for numerous environmental stressors (e.g. see Armistead et al, 1998), it is not unreasonable to speculate that desensitization to perceived vulnerability (i.e. to uncontrollable environmental risk) may be adaptive in terms of emotional functioning.…”

Adherence to antiretroviral therapy among HIV-positive children: Examination of the role of caregiver health beliefs

et al. 2001

This study examined the association between two components of the Health Belief Model (perceived vulnerability and barriers) and adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) among children who are HIV-infected. The parents/caregivers of 30 children (mean age = 5.21, SD = 3.18) who were HIV-infected and who were on active ART were surveyed to assess current methods of adherence assessment and educational efforts within the institution. All participants (except one) were African American and reported low monthly family incomes (M = $869.45, SD = $832.63). Assessment instruments included measures of perceived vulnerability, caregiver-reported adherence and perceived barriers, and objective measures of adherence (clinical pill count; electronic measurement). The results failed to demonstrate a significant relationship between parental perceived vulnerability, perceived barriers and adherence to antiretroviral medications. Methods of assessing adherence provided significantly discrepant estimates of adherence. Results are discussed in terms of implications for patient care and for future research in this area. The addition of behavioural and motivational components to traditional educational approaches may positively impact treatment results.

“…3 Although more than 100 interventions to reduce sexual risk among youth have been developed, only a few have undergone rigorous empirical validation. 4,5 Of those validated, almost all were implemented directly with adolescents in schoolor community-based settings. Although few prevention programs have targeted families, parents play critical roles in shaping adolescent sexual behavior through their use of effective strategies and communication about sexual values.…”

“…And a lot of good science that is interesting and necessary does not (and will not) meet the four new criteria to the same degree. For example, research on pediatric AIDS (Armistead, Forehand, Steele, & Kotchik, 1998) has high impact validity but low incidence validity; nonetheless, developmental scientists consider this type of research important. In contrast, research on otitis media (Peters, Grievink, van Bon, van den Berken, & Schilder, 1997) has a different pattern of validities; it has high incidence validity and relatively low impact validity but also is considered valuable and important.…”

Criteria for Evaluating the Significance of Developmental Research in the Twenty‐First Century: Force and Counterforce

et al. 2000

Since its birth approximately 100 years ago, the field of child development has undergone fluctuations in the criteria used to determine which research topics are more or less worthy of study. The purpose of this paper is to identify the forces that influence how developmental research is prioritized and evaluated and how these influences are changing as we enter the new millennium. We do so by considering the developmental researcher in context and suggest that there will be increasing pressure to use new criteria when assessing the significance of twenty-first-century developmental science. We review the three most commonly used forms of research validity--internal, external, and ecological--and then identify new research validities that we believe are likely to play increasingly important roles in the next millennium. We also argue that many developmental scientists will increasingly be pressured by forces that are external to the traditional research environment and that these forces will shape the ways in which the significance of developmental research is evaluated.
