She defined nursing as a profession, which pays attention to the environment and uses scientific data to drive change.;[Article Title: Treating Individuals With Eating Disorders: Part 1 / Karen Jennings Mathis, Christine Brigette Costa, and Pamela E. Xandre, p. 7-13] Abstract: According to the American Psychiatric Association, eating disorders (EDs) are characterized by a persistent disturbance of eating or eating-related behaviors that result in altered consumption or absorption of food and that significantly impair physical health and/or psychosocial functioning. EDs are chronic psychiatric illnesses and are notoriously difficult to treat. The etiology of eating disorders is unknown and thought to be a complex interplay among biological predisposition, environmental and sociocultural factors, neurobiological influences, and psychological factors. Moreover, prevalence of eating disorders is increasing despite variation in prevalence estimates across studies. Nurses are well-positioned to implement appropriate screening for and comprehensive assessment of EDs as well as offer patient-centered treatment options including referrals when indicated. As the first in a two-part series, this article provides an overview of the clinical characteristics of EDs and key areas for assessment and diagnostic considerations. The follow-up article in this series will focus on pharmacological treatment strategies.;[Article Title: Therapy Strategies for Substance Use Disorders / Julie Worley, p.14-18] Abstract: Substance use disorders (SUDs) are prevalent and carry a high mortality rate. SUDs are chronic health conditions resulting from a chemical imbalance in the brain. However, recovery from SUDs is possible. There are several evidence-based nonpharmacological therapies for SUDs, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based interventions, and eye movement desensitization reprocessing. Many patients are not aware of, or do not receive, these therapies. Nurses can use simple strategies within the therapy models when working with patients with SUDs. In addition, nurses are in a prime position to educate patients about these evidence-based therapies and refer patients to therapists or advanced practice nurses with training and expertise in these nonpharmacological treatments.;[Article Title: Adverse Childhood Experiences: Missed Opportunities by Nurse Practitioners to Screen Adult Clients / M. Laurie Branstetter, Dawn Garrett-Wright, and Brooke Padgett, p. 20-27] Abstract: Adverse childhood experiences (ACE) occur as a result of abuse/neglect during childhood and household dysfunction. More than one half of adults have experienced at least one ACE, and this can lead to impaired coping and risky health behaviors. The purpose of the current study was to determine the relationship between nurse practitioner (NP) knowledge of ACE and screening practice for childhood trauma in a mid-southern state. Forty-four NPs participated in the survey. Of NP participants, 15% reported routinely screening for a history of childhood abuse. Psychiatric-mental health NPs were more knowledgeable about ACE screening and more confident in screening practices. All providers reported lack of time as the most frequent barrier to screening for ACE. NPs who regularly screen patients are more knowledgeable about the nine knowledge questions regarding ACE. Insufficient time to evaluate or counsel clients was a universal barrier across the sample.;[Article Title: Experiences of Bisexual Identity, Attraction, and Behavior and Their Relationship With Mental Health Findings From the Who I Am Study / Julia Taylor, Jennifer Power, and Elizabeth Smith, p. 28-37] Abstract: Approximately one in 10 Australian individuals report bisexual attraction, and this group has repeatedly been found to experience high rates of poor mental health. Despite this finding, our understanding of who is most at risk within this group remains limited. The current article presents findings of an online survey conducted in Australia with one of the largest samples of bisexual adults to date (N = 2,651). Chi-square and regression analyses identified significant associations between the three dimensions of bisexuality (i.e., identity, behavior, and attraction) and mental health. Participants who reported identifying as bisexual were found to be especially vulnerable to poor mental health compared to those who reported bisexual attraction and/or sexual experiences without a bisexual identity. These findings provide a significant contribution to the lacking literature on the complexities of bisexual orientation and mental health.;[Article Title: Experiences of Family Caregivers of Individuals With Chronic Psychiatric Illness in Turkey: A Qualitative Study / Ayse Sari and Zekiye Çetinkaya Duman, p. 38-46] Abstract: The purpose of the current descriptive qualitative study was to reveal experiences of family caregivers of individuals with chronic psychiatric illness. Family caregivers who provided care to 16 individuals with chronic mental illness were interviewed. Three themes emerged from the interviews: Illness Management, The Caregiver's World: Changes and Effects, and Coping From the Caregiver'sPoint of View. Understanding the experiences of family caregivers contributes to content development of family intervention programs.;[Article Title: Internet Addiction in Adolescents: A Systematic Review of Nursing Studies / Arif Özparlak and Dudu Karakaya, p. 47-55] Abstract: Nursing studies related to internet addiction in adolescents were assessed in the current systematic review. Six databases were searched, and 35 studies were included. Internet addiction was found to have negative effects on adolescents' mental, psychosocial, and physical health, with 43.4%, 43.4%, and 8.8% of studies, respectively, examining these variables. Nursing practices to support adolescents' mental, psychosocial, and physical health should be planned and implemented and outcomes researched ER -
