An advantage of CC is that it bridges a gap between family systems thinking and efficacy theory, where extant research and theory have focused on the self-efficacy of one or both parents. This study aimed to develop a self-reported measure of CC. Methodology: Participants (n = 302), including cohabiting mothers (n = 240) and fathers (n = 62), completed an online survey (112 items) comprising demographic questions, the Coparenting Relationship Scale (CRS), the Parenting Sense of Competence Scale (PSOC), the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), and 36 items designed to explore perceptions of CC. Results: Factor analyses on 36-CC items identified 10 items that reliably formed a brief Coparenting Competence Scale (CCS; Alpha = 0.89). Analysis of convergent and divergent validity demonstrated that the CCS measures a unique construct that is linked to parenting self-efficacy, measured by PSOC (r = 0.47), and coparenting quality, assessed by the CRS (r = 0.63). There was a significant association between CCS and SDQ across age groups and an association stronger than that found for the CRS and SDQ in the current cohort. Conclusions and Implications: The study found support for the reliability and validity of the CCS. Coparenting competence, assessed by the CCS, was found to be distinct from factors previously used to represent coparenting quality in multivariate scales. The strength of associations between the CCS and SDQ suggests this new measure may have an important role in coparenting research.]]> Wed 27 Sep 2023 15:30:02 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52043 Wed 27 Sep 2023 10:07:11 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41143 Wed 27 Jul 2022 15:01:25 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37128 Wed 27 Apr 2022 14:47:41 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44926 Wed 26 Oct 2022 16:42:19 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:45166 p < 0.001), followed by two interpersonal care quality aspects, Dignity (being treated respectfully) (β = 0.219 (95% CI: 0.117 to 0.320); p < 0.001) and Communication (clear explanation by the physician) (β = 0.103 (95% CI: 0.003 to 0.203); p = 0.043).

The average community exposure to ambient air pollutants (PM with an aerodynamic diameter of 10 μm or less (PM₁₀), 2.5 μm or less (PM_2.5), 1 μm or less (PM₁) and nitrogen dioxide (NO₂)) for each participant was estimated using a satellite-based spatial statistical model. Haemoglobin levels were measured for participants from dried blood spots. The models were controlled for confounders. Results: All the studied pollutants were significantly associated with increased anaemia prevalence in single pollutant model (e.g., the prevalence ratios associated with an increase in inter quartile range in three years moving average PM₁₀ (1.05; 95% CI: 1.02–1.09), PM_2.5 (1.11; 95% CI: 1.06–1.16), PM₁ (1.13; 95% CI: 1.06–1.20) and NO₂(1.42; 95% CI: 1.34–1.49), respectively.

Fifty-three children aged 5–18 years were fitted with custom-made polypropylene orthotics. Visual analogue scale (VAS) assessed lower limb pain severity, Paediatric Quality of Life Inventory assessed HRQoL and fatigue and six-minute walk test (6 MWT) measured functional endurance at baseline, at 1 month and 3 months post-intervention.

Fifty-two children completed the study (mean age 10.6-years). Children reported significantly reduced pain (mean VAS reduction −27/100, 95%CI: −33, −21), improved HRQoL (mean total improvement 11/100, 95%CI: 7, −15), functional capacity (mean 6MWT improvement 27 m, 95%CI: 18, −36) and fatigue (mean total improvement 13/100, 95%CI: 9, −17) after 1 month of wearing the custom-made orthotics.
