Trucking Organization And Mental Health Disorders Of Truck Drivers, Mona Shattell, Yorghos Apostolopoulos, Chad Collins, Sevil Sonmez, Caitlin Fehrenhacher

Background: There are over 3 million truck drivers employed in the commercial transportation and material moving occupations, one of the largest occupational groups in the United States. Workers in this large and growing occupational segment are at risk for a range of occupational health-induced conditions including mental health and psychiatric disorders due to high occupational stress, low access and use of health care, and limited social support.
Objective: The purpose of the study was to explore male truck drivers’ mental health risks and associated co-morbidities, using a cross-sectional and quantitative design.
Methods and Sample: Data were collected from a random …
Infection Risk Along U.S. Highways? The Case Of A ‘Truckchaser’ Cruising For Truckers, Mona Shattell, Yorghos Apostolopoulos, Sevil Sönmez, Richard Rothenberg, Rose Weitz, John Smith
Infection Risk Along U.S. Highways? The Case Of A ‘Truckchaser’ Cruising For Truckers, Mona Shattell, Yorghos Apostolopoulos, Sevil Sönmez, Richard Rothenberg, Rose Weitz, John Smith

This article explores potential infection risks linked with trucker cruising along U.S. highways. Specifically, the article delineates the settings and social organization of trucker cruising, examines the structure of sex partnerships of truckers and cruisers, and delves into the unique database of one truckchaser who recorded 4,162 sex interactions with 2,499 different truckers during a 13-year period. Concurrent sexual partnerships of bisexual and particularly straight-identified truckers hold increased potential for amplifying infection risk as they enable pathogens to operate as bridges along disparate geographies, demographies, and epidemiologies.

“An Existential Place Of Pain:” The Essence Of Despair In Women, Nancy Scroggs, Mona Shattell, W. Richard Cowling

While there is a substantive body of knowledge on depression, little is known about the experience of despair. This phenomenological study explored women’s experience of despair through qualitative interviews with 14 women ages 28 to 55 (M= 45) who self-identified as experiencing despair. Three themes emerged: “crippling and debilitating,” “there’s nothing you can do”, and “it’ll never end.” The findings suggest that women desire to have their experiences recognized and validated while simultaneously receiving acknowledgement of their ability to overcome the past and to shape their own destinies.
Worksite-Induced Morbidities Of Truck Drivers In The United States, Yorghos Apostolopoulos, Sevil Sönmez, Mona Shattell, Michael Belzer
Worksite-Induced Morbidities Of Truck Drivers In The United States, Yorghos Apostolopoulos, Sevil Sönmez, Mona Shattell, Michael Belzer

A critical review was conducted of social, psychological, and health science literature on the array of health risks and morbidities of truckers. Multilevel worksite-induced strains (e.g., long work hours and fatigue, shift work and sleep deprivation, postural fatigue and exposure to noise and vibration, sedentary lifestyle and unhealthy diet, exposure to diesel exhaust fumes, and other occupational stressors) were categorized into six primary morbidities for truckers: (1) psychological and psychiatric disorders; (2) detriments resulting from disrupted biological cycles; (3) musculoskeletal disorders; (4) cancer and respiratory morbidities; (5) cardiovascular disease; and (6) risk-laden substance use and sexual practices. Elevated morbidity risks …

This paper reports feasibility issues with the implementation of an intervention study for depression in Latina women from Mexico living in an emerging immigrant community in the United States. Based on the PRECEDE-PROCEED model, the study explores implementation issues such as the intervention and retention; logistical issues such as transportation and childcare; and possible measurement issues such as reliability and validity of the CES-D, Spanish version. Future studies should evaluate the CES-D, Spanish version, and test the modified cognitive behavioral group therapy intervention in larger samples and through randomized controlled studies.

This study examined the ways in which depression affects immigrant Latina women residing in an emerging Latino immigrant community in the US. Three Spanish-language focus groups were conducted within a community-based participatory research framework. Latina women expressed concerns about their immigration status, separation from family in their native countries, and about finances and inabilities to meet family obligations. They expressed fears for their children in the US. Their sociopolitical, economic, and familial explanations for depression differ from the individual, biological explanations of depression common today. Implications for policy makers, community organizers, health care providers, public health educators, and school counselors …

Community-based participatory research bridges the gap between academic researchers and the real-life issues of communities and offers promise for addressing racial and ethnic disparities in mental health care. The purpose of this community-based participatory research was to identify factors that affect access, use, and perception of mental health services by a Latino population at individual, organizational, and community levels. Individual level factors included health beliefs about mental illness and care, suspicions of providers, financial concerns, and culturally determined gender roles. Organizational factors included problems with access to care related to cost, lack of bilingual providers and culturally competent care; and …

An Exploration Of The Meanings Of Space And Place In Acute Psychiatric Care, Melanie Andes, Mona Shattell
An Exploration Of The Meanings Of Space And Place In Acute Psychiatric Care, Melanie Andes, Mona Shattell
Mona Shattell
Spatial human experiences such as confinement and freedom are important to acute psychiatric care. The physical space that inpatient psychiatric/mental health nurses and acute psychiatric patients share influences human relationships. The purpose of this paper is to explore the meanings of space and place in acute psychiatric settings, to discuss how these meanings affect human relationships, nurses’ work environment and patients’ perception of care, and to present how the design and use of nursing stations affects therapeutic relationships. We hope to encourage dialogue and research that will help clarify the meaning of space and place in acute care psychiatric units, …

“Nurse Bait:” Strategies Hospitalized Patients Use To Entice Nurses Within The Context Of The Nurse-Patient Relationship, Mona Shattell
“Nurse Bait:” Strategies Hospitalized Patients Use To Entice Nurses Within The Context Of The Nurse-Patient Relationship, Mona Shattell
Mona Shattell
Patients on medical-surgical and psychiatric inpatient units long for more and deeper connections with nurses. Patients’ dependence on the nursing staff, as well as their perceived powerlessness, creates a situation where patients believe they have to actively find ways to seek needed nursing care. This paper will describe active strategies used by medical-surgical patients to entice nurses within the context of the nurse-patient relationship; strategies designed to mitigate vulnerability and increase interpersonal connection. Implications for nursing practice and for Peplau’s Theory of Interpersonal Relations will be presented.

Aims. The aims of this paper are to review a theoretical model useful for developing nursing knowledge related to nurse–patient interaction, review the literature on nurse–patient interaction, and discuss areas for further research.
Theoretical model. Goffman’s theory of face work.
Results. Nurse–patient interaction is a central element of clinical nursing practice. This paper shows how Goffman’s model can be used as a theoretical framework for understanding nurse–patient communication.
Relevance to clinical practice. Issues such as power, the social and cultural context, and interpersonal competence are shown to be important in the quality of nurse– patient interactions and nurses need to …

What’S Therapeutic About The Therapeutic Milieu?, Sandra Thomas, Mona Shattell, Tracey Martin

While the milieu of an inpatient facility is considered a treatment modality, extant literature focuses on the staff’s role in creating the milieu rather than the patient’s perception of it. Not since Goffman’s Asylums (1961) has there been an in-depth examination of the phenomenal world of the hospitalized psychiatric patient. In this study, eight inpatients (ages 23 to 58) on the acute psychiatric unit of a metropolitan general hospital participated in phenomenological interviews about their experience of the environment. The essential meaning of the hospital was refuge from selfdestructiveness. Prominent aspects of patients’ experience within the place of refuge were …
