We searched for research articles that included self-report measurement of MSE and were published from January 2000 to September 2021. We selected this time frame to focus on a contemporary context an...
We extracted measures of MSE with descriptive details, including level of self-efficacy assessed (e.g., global, domain-specific, task-specific), concept(s) assessed, reliability, eligible age ranges, ...
In many studies of MSE, researchers used measures not specifically designed for self-efficacy and instead used measures for closely related concepts such as confidence or competence. We identified onl...
We identified four instruments to measure MSE in mothers of infants, and each has strengths and weaknesses. Future researchers should focus on clear conceptual and operational alignment between MSE an...
Self-control is regarded as a necessary trait in almost every aspect of human life. Numerous self-control scales have been developed and utilized in various fields, but their psychometric characterist...
Fragmentation of care (that is, the use of multiple ambulatory providers without a dominant provider) may increase the risk of gaps in communication among providers. However, it is unclear whether peo...
We conducted a longitudinal study using data from the Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) study, including a survey on perceptions of healthcare (2017-2018) and linked fe...
The correlation coefficient between claims-based and self-report was 0.37 for the number of visits and 0.38 for the number of providers (p < 0.0001 for each). Individuals with high fragmentation by cl...
Medicare beneficiaries with claims-based fragmentation also report gaps in communication among their providers. Moreover, these gaps appear to be clinically significant, with beneficiaries reporting a...
Clinician-rated symptom scales are the current standard for outcome measures in Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders (SSD) research. There has been growing interest in the development of self-report measu...
The accuracy of self-reported hand eczema (HE) is currently unclear, and it is unknown how well self-reported signs and symptoms of skin lesions that indicate HE correlate with self-reported HE....
To correlate self-reported signs and symptoms of skin lesions on the hands with self-reported HE, to assess the sensitivity and specificity, and to suggest a definition for HE....
Seven hundred ninety-five (47.8%) of 1663 invited healthcare workers completed a digital questionnaire, and were asked to report if they experienced HE or any of the following skin signs/symptoms in p...
HE during the past 11 months was reported by 11.9%. Of these, 91.4% reported at least one skin sign versus 32.3% of those without self-reported HE. The highest sensitivity and specificity were found f...
The marked difference between self-reported HE and signs/symptoms highlights the importance of differentiating between data based on self-reported HE and signs/symptoms. As a first step towards diagno...
To investigate associations between dizziness, hearing loss, medication, and self-perceived health in the region of Lolland-Falster in Denmark....
A cross-sectional population-based study using data from questionnaires and physical examinations between February 8th, 2016, and February 13th, 2020. Individuals aged 50 years or above in the region ...
Of 10,092 individuals (52% female), the mean age was 64.7 and 65.7 years for females and males, respectively. 20% reported dizziness during the past 30 days, and prevalence increased with age. 24% of ...
One of five participants reported dizziness during the last month. Dizziness was negatively associated with self-perception of good health also after adjusting for comorbidities. Almost half of the di...

To assess agreement for migraine day between self-report and diagnostic guidelines for children and adolescents using a headache diary....
Trial guidelines recommend prospective collection of headache features and adoption of migraine day as an outcome measure, but there is no clear consensus on the definition of migraine day....
This is a secondary analysis of data from two projects-a prospective cohort study validating a pediatric scale of treatment expectancy and a clinical trial of occipital nerve blocks to treat status mi...
Of 122 enrolled children and adolescents, 106 (86.9%) completed ≥1 detailed headache assessment (438 entries). We found moderate agreement between self-reported and ICHD-derived migraine day, with a C...
We found only moderate agreement between self-reported and ICHD-derived migraine day, suggesting both measures are not equal but may represent overlapping aspects of migraine as a disease. This highli...
Why are some people more willing than others to take risks? While behavioral tasks (e.g., monetary lotteries) are often regarded as a gold standard for capturing a person's risk preference, recent stu...
Discrimination negatively impacts health and may contribute to racial/ethnic disparities in dementia risk....
Experiences of lifetime and everyday discrimination were assessed among 6509 Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) participants. We assessed the association of discrimination with incidence of ...
Prevalence of any lifetime discrimination in MESA was 42%, highest among Black adults (72%). Over a median 15.7 years of follow-up, there were 466 incident cases of dementia. Lifetime discrimination, ...
These findings demonstrate an association of greater experiences of lifetime discrimination with incident dementia....
