The associations of spirituality and Hispanic ethnicity with neuroendocrine biomarkers among patients with colorectal cancer

ObjectiveDealing with cancer evokes not only physical and emotional distress, but may also promote resilience through spirituality. Patients with cancer are vulnerable to neuroendocrine dysregulation. This longitudinal observational study examined the degree to which spirituality was associated with neuroendocrine biomarkers and the moderating role of Hispanic ethnicity. MethodsParticipants were adults who were recently diagnosed with colorectal cancer (n = 81, 55 years old, 66% male, 63% Hispanic, 72% advanced cancer, 7 months post-diagnosis). The domains of spirituality (faith, meaning, and peace) and ethnicity (Hispanic vs. non-Hispanic) were self-reported. Cortisol and alpha amylase (sAA) were assayed from saliva samples collected at waking and bedtime on seven consecutive days. Mean levels at waking and bedtime, and diurnal slopes over seven days were calculated. Age and cancer stage were covariates. Results: Overall, patients reported moderate to high levels of spirituality. General linear modeling revealed that greater faith was associated with higher levels of sAA at waking and bedtime as well as more blunted diurnal pattern of sAA only among Hispanic patients (p ≤ .045). Greater peace was associated with steeper diurnal pattern of sAA, regardless of ethnicity (B = 0.021, p = .005). Meaning and cortisol were not significantly associated with study variables. ConclusionsFindings indicate that presence of peace facing a cancer diagnosis associated with neuroendocrine regulation, whereas drawing on one's faith, particularly among Hispanic patients, associated with neuroendocrine dysregulation during the first months after the diagnosis. Further investigations of psychobiobehavioral moderators and mediators for healthy neuroendocrine functioning among patients with cancer are warranted.

Revitalizing traditional villages through Bookstore-led Rural Tourism: a case study of three Bookstore villages in Rural China

ABSTRACT Rural tourism has been used to revitalize traditional villages by integrating creative tourism service facilities. This paper focuses on the role of physical bookstores as a significant tourism service facility in rural China. In urban settings, physical bookstores have faced numerous challenges, leading them to evolve into new forms and offer immersive experiences to visitors. Bookstores have also ventured into traditional Chinese villages that leads to rural revitalization. Despite the evidence of rural tourism initiated by bookstores, it received little attention in academia. This paper aims to propose the concept of bookstore-led rural tourism, investigates its tourism development process and impacts on rural communities. Three bookstore villages were selected as case studies and the research was conducted using qualitative and inductive approaches. The findings confirm that (1) rural bookstores play a leading role in the rural tourism development process through the three stages; (2) bookstore-led rural tourism also revitalizes traditional Chinese villages at the material, social, and spiritual levels, with rural bookstores playing a crucial role in shaping rural identity. This paper recommends that the application of bookstore-led rural tourism to revitalize traditional villages using a holistic approach should be valued in future research studies and real-life practice.

Spiritual orientation of the psychological rehabilitation of combatants

The paper examines the impact of combat stress on human personality, with a particular focus on identity disintegration. This is considered to be the most significant impact of combat stress, accompanied by the loss of values that generally make up a framework for assessing and interpreting current events. The conventional psychological treatments for personality reconstruction, which appeal to cognitive, emotional, motivational and volitional processes that make up the structure of the psyche, are found to be ineffective in cases where stress exceeds the average psychological resources of a person. Coping with extreme impacts assumes going beyond the familiar life experience accompanied by the reference to the spiritual level resources, among which religiosity is traditional for the mentality. This paper reviews the relationship between religion and psychotherapy, with a focus on the psychotherapeutic factors of religion aimed at combatants’ identity reconstruction.

Spirituality, Religiosity, Caring Behavior, Spiritual Care, and Personalized Care Among Student Nurses: A Descriptive Correlational Study in the Philippines.

This study sought to determine the student nurses' spirituality, religiosity, caring behavior, spiritual care, and personalized care. Further, it sought to determine the relationship between spirituality, religiosity, and caring behavior in student nurses' spiritual care and personalized care. The study used a descriptive correlational design using convenience sampling to collect data from 1248 student nurses in the Philippines from December 2023 to February 2024. We collected data using the Spirituality and Spiritual Care Scale rating scale and the Caring Behaviors Inventory. The study revealed that the mean scores of the students in their "spirituality" and "religiosity" were 4.08 (SD = 0.98) and 2.99 (SD = 1.26), respectively. Student nurses had sufficient confidence and skills in spiritual care, caring behavior, and personalized care. The students' age had a weak and negative association with the students' spirituality and religiosity. Students from University A had higher levels of spirituality and religiosity than students from University B, University C, and University D. Students in the 4th year level were more religious than 3rd year students. Students who had their last clinical exposure in the Admission and emergency room reported poorer caring behaviors than those who had previous clinical exposure in the Medical-surgical ward, Obstetrics and gynecology, Intensive Care Units, and Community. There is no significant relationship between a student nurse's spiritual care and caring behavior. This trend is similar to caring behavior and personalized care. The students' age predicts their personalized care.

Examining the relationship between Spirituality, Morality and Resilience among Young Adults

Abstract: This study investigates the relationships between spirituality, resilience, and morality among young adults, with a specific focus on examining how resilience and morality predict spirituality. Utilizing a sample of 207 young adults aged 18-25 years residing in India, the study employs a quantitative approach to analyze data collected through the 3 different scales. The analysis, conducted via multiple linear regression, reveals that both resilience and morality significantly predict spirituality, accounting for approximately 30.5% of its variance. This indicates a substantial relationship between these constructs, suggesting that individuals with higher levels of resilience and moral reasoning are likely to exhibit higher levels of spirituality. The findings challenge previous assumptions aboutthe isolated nature of spirituality, highlighting its complex interplay with other psychological constructs. The study underscores the importance of considering bothresilience and morality in discussions about spirituality, offering valuable insights into thefactors that influence spiritual beliefs and practices among young adults. This research contributes to the broader discourse on spirituality, providing a nuanced understanding of its determinants and emphasizing its interconnectedness with resilience and morality.

The relationship between the spirituality levels and the happiness and life satisfaction of elderly individuals living in their homes and nursing homes

ABSTRACT Spirituality and religion have an important place in the lives of Turkish elderly people. With modernization and changes in social life, the position of Turkish elderly people at home has changed and the need for institutional care has increased. Elderly individuals who have partially lost their place in traditional Turkish culture often resort to spirituality in coping with the problems they experience. This situation requires conducting studies on determining and comparing the relationship between the spirituality levels, happiness and life satisfaction of elderly individuals living at home or in nursing homes in our country. The sample of the study consisted of 139 elderly individuals over the age of 65 who were followed in nursing homes and Family Health Centers. The data of the research were collected by face-to-face interview technique using the “Personal Information Form, Spirituality Scale, Life Satisfaction Scale and Subjective Happiness Scale”. The research revealed that there is a significant difference between the spirituality levels of elderly individuals living in homes and nursing homes. It also showed that, although there was no significant difference, the life satisfaction and happiness levels of elderly individuals living at home were higher than those of elderly individuals living in a nursing home.

Spirituality, Religiosity, and Mental Health in Patients with Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies: A Brazilian Multicentric Case-Control Study.

No published studies have investigated the correlation between religiosity, spirituality, mental health, and idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) or systemic autoimmune myopathy. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the association between religiosity/spirituality, sociodemographic factors, and the mental health of IIM patients. This is a multicenter case-control study that included 151 patients with IIMs and 95 individuals without autoimmune diseases (controls), held between August 2022 and April 2023. This study used a semi-structured questionnaire that included sociodemographic information and the juxtaposition of the following questionnaires: the Attitudes Related to Spirituality Scale (ARES); the Duke University Religion Index (DUKE), which is composed of the organizational religious affiliation (ORA), non-organizational religious affiliation (NORA), and intrinsic religiosity (IR) domains; and the General Health Questionnaire-12 (GHQ-12). Data were analyzed using Epi Info software 7.2.5 (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA, USA). A comparison between the mean values of the ARES, DUKE, and GHQ-12 scales was made using the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests. A logistic regression test was used with the variables whose difference was statistically significant in the univariate analysis. Correlation analysis was performed using the Spearman rho coefficient. A higher prevalence of evangelicals and a lower prevalence of Catholics (p < 0.050) were seen in the IIM group compared to controls. Positive association was demonstrated between IIMs and the pardo ethnicity (OR = 2.26, 95% CI = 1.20-4.25, p = 0.011), highest ORA (OR = 2.81, 95% CI = 1.53-5.15, p < 0.001), NORA (OR = 3.99, 95% CI = 1.94-8·18, p < 0.001), IR (OR = 5.27, 95% CI = 2.32-11.97, p < 0.001), and ARES values (OR = 1.08, 95% CI = 1.04-1.13, p < 0.001). Mental health levels were compared between the groups (p > 0.999). Therefore, higher levels of religiosity and spirituality were observed in the IIM group than in the control group, but there was a similar distribution of mental health levels. The following can be cited as advantages of the present study: (i) the large sample for a rare disease with the presence of a control group; (ii) the multicenter characteristic with participation from three regions of Brazil; (iii) being the first study to map aspects of religiosity, spirituality, and mental health in IIMs.

Stigma Toward Families With Mental Health Problems in Latino Communities

Stigma toward families with members managing mental health problems remains underresearched in Latino communities. Using community-based surveys on mental health stigma and help-seeking attitudes, this study examined the associations between family-level stigma and participant sociodemographic characteristics. Only education level and spirituality significantly predicted family-level stigma. Individuals with higher education levels exhibited lower stigma scores. High spirituality levels were associated with minimal increases in stigma. The study underscores the influence of education on family-level stigma among Latino individuals. Given the importance of family in Latino culture, reshaping community narratives around mental health to support affected families can promote inclusivity and support, reducing stigmatization.
