Summary
Coaching Boys Into Men (CBIM), an athletic coach-delivered program, effectively prevents teen dating violence by increasing bystander intervention. Coaches and athletes found the program feasible and acceptable, offering insights for future implementation.
Area of Science:
- Public Health
- Violence Prevention
- Adolescent Health
Background:
- Teen dating violence and sexual violence are significant public health issues with severe health consequences.
- Promoting bystander intervention and education on abusive behaviors are key prevention strategies.
- Coaching Boys Into Men (CBIM) is an evidence-based program delivered by athletic coaches to prevent dating violence.
Purpose of the Study:
- To identify barriers and facilitators of the CBIM program from coaches' and athletes' perspectives.
- To optimize the implementation and sustainability of the CBIM program.
- To understand how CBIM promotes positive bystander behaviors and reduces abuse perpetration.
Main Methods:
- Semi-structured interviews with 36 coaches regarding program delivery.
- Ten focus groups with 39 male athletes assessing their experiences with CBIM.
- Exploration of coaches' strategies, barriers, and facilitators.
- Assessment of athletes' perceptions of coaches delivering the program.
Main Results:
- Coaches integrated CBIM into practices using training cards and personal examples.
- Key facilitators included advocate support, ease of integration, and program materials.
- Barriers involved time constraints, sensitive content delivery, and participant limitations.
- Both coaches and athletes reported the program as feasible and acceptable.
Conclusions:
- CBIM is a feasible and acceptable dating violence prevention program within school athletic settings.
- Coach and athlete insights are crucial for optimizing CBIM's future delivery and dissemination.
- Understanding implementation nuances enhances knowledge of CBIM's effectiveness in preventing violence against women and girls.

Radioactivity is a spontaneous disintegration of an unstable nuclide and is a random process, as all the nuclei in the sample do not decay simultaneously. The number of disintegrations per unit time is called the activity (A), which is directly proportional to the number of nuclei in the sample. The decay constant (λ) is an average probability of decay per nucleus in unit time.

Several factors can increase the risk of cancer in an individual. About 50% of cancer cases can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, eating healthy, and following a modest cancer prevention diet. Epidemiological studies have consistently shown that populations with vegetable and fruit-rich diets have reduced the incidence of cancer. On the other hand, populations who have a diet rich in animal fat, red meat, junk food, or high calories are predisposed to cancer.

01:14Prevention of Further Absorption of Poison
1.3K
In cases of acute poisoning, the primary objective is to prevent further absorption of the toxic substance into the body. Immediate interventions using various decontamination techniques targeting the gastrointestinal (GI) tract can achieve this. Decontamination is crucial to prevent poison from entering the systemic circulation, which involves washing affected areas with water and mild soap and removing contaminated clothing. Once external decontamination is done, attention must be turned to...
