Using concept mapping in the development of the EU-PAD framework (EUropean-Physical Activity Determinants across the life course): a DEDIPAC-study

2016

International audience; Background: A large proportion of European children, adults and older adults do not engage in sufficient physical activity ( PA). Understanding individual and contextual factors associated with PA behaviours is essential for the identification and implementation of effective preventative environments, policies, and programmes that can promote an active lifestyle across life course and can potentially improve health. The current paper intends to provide 1) a multi-disciplinary, Pan-European and life course view of key determinants of PA behaviours and 2) a proposal of how these factors may cluster. Methods: After gathering a list of 183 potential PA behaviours-associa…

The need for methods to measure capacity and incapacity from working life to old age

2017

Owing to a sharp increase in population ageing, a decrease in fertility and increase in life expectancy, there is an imbalance between numbers of workers entering and those leaving the workforce. The need to work longer has thus become increasingly important. To promote functional ability during extended work life and after retirement is important to ensure that people of all ages can remain active. Studies on occupational health have traditionally focused on people of working age and gerontology has studied people after retirement. These two research areas have largely remained separate, but this does not have to be the case. Both occupational health research and gerontology require a bala…

The gap between behavioral risk status and willingness to change behavior among healthcare professionals

2018

Aims: This study explored behavioral health risk factors among healthcare professionals and investigated the at-risk persons’ satisfaction with their health habits and ongoing change attempts. Methods: The study was based on a cross-sectional web-based survey directed at the nurses and physicians ( N = 1233) in Finnish healthcare. Obesity, low physical activity, smoking, and risky alcohol drinking were used as behavioral health risk factors. Results: In all, 70% of the participants had at least one behavioral risk factor, and a significant number of at-risk persons were satisfied with their health habits and had no ongoing change process. Good self-rated health and good self-rated work abil…

Leisure-Time Physical Activity Reduces the Risk of Long-Term Sickness Absence Among Older Healthy Female Eldercare Workers

2021

Purpose: This study aimed to examine the association between leisure-time physical activity (PA) and risk of long-term sickness absence (LTSA). Design: Data on LTSA (≥3 consecutive weeks during a 1-year follow-up) were acquired from the Danish Register for Evaluation of Marginalization and linked to a questionnaire via personal identification number. Setting: Eldercare workers from 36 Danish municipalities. Subjects: Data were retrieved from 4605 healthy Danish female eldercare (i.e., workers assisting senior citizens with daily activities and health) aged 19 to 69 years, who answered a questionnaire on health, and work environment in 2005. Measures: Calculated risk of LTSA and its associat…

Associations of vacation time with lifestyle, long-term mortality and health-related quality of life in old age: The Helsinki Businessmen Study

2017

Abstract Introduction There are few longitudinal studies of relationships between vacation and later health outcomes. We studied these during a 26-year follow-up of the Helsinki Businessmen Study. Methods In 1974, at mean age of 47 years, 2741 members of a cohort of executives and businessmen born 1919–1934 were clinically examined and reported their annual vacation time (dichotomized >21 [n = 2001] vs. ≤21 days [n = 740]), self-rated health (SRH) and perceived physical fitness using a five-step scale. In old age in 2000 (mean age 73 years), the survivors filled in the RAND-36/SF-36 health-related quality of life (HRQoL) questionnaire. Mortality between 1974 and 2000 was retrieved from nati…

„Morbus Google“ vs. e-Health: Qualitative Untersuchung zur Akzeptanz und Implementierung von Online-Nachsorge in der stationären Rehabilitation

2017

Zusammenfassung Hintergrund Internet- und mobilbasierte Gesundheitsinterventionen (IMIs) können z. B. in Form von Nachsorgeangeboten das Behandlungsangebot der Rehabilitation erweitern. Für die Implementierung ist jedoch deren Akzeptanz eine wesentliche Voraussetzung, die daher bei Rehabilitanden und Mitarbeitern qualitativ untersucht wurde. Methodik In 3 Rehabilitationskliniken mit verschiedenen Indikationen und Altersgruppen wurden n=15 Rehabilitanden in Einzelinterviews und n=29 Mitarbeiter verschiedener Berufsgruppen in Fokusgruppen nach einem semi-strukturierten Leitfaden auf Basis der “Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology“ interviewt.
