- W88406473 abstract "Although, infection with head lice is an emotional issue, the social and emotional aspects of treating head lice have been neglected by researchers. Existing research focuses on the insect's biology and treatment strategies. A head lice information website sponsored an anonymous, exploratory questionnaire which asked: feelings at discovery, difficulties experienced with control and other problematic issues. Eligible respondents (n = 332) were overwhelming female (91 %), from developed countries (85%) and employed full-time (43%) or part-time (34%). Two important themes with public health implications were the burden of treatment, particularly the time required to diagnose and treat pediculosis, and the emotional impact of head lice. Time required to manage head lice has implications for the usefulness of current treatment methods which are incompatible with the lifestyles of the female parents/guardians from developed nations. An oral drug would probably find wide acceptance if concerns abour safety and overuse could be addressed. Most emotional reactions to discovery were strongly negative. Social stigma and treatment workload appear causal. Current professional advice uses a bio-medical model of control largely ignoring social and emotional dimensions. Strategiesto address these dimensions are required. These study findings will now enable exploration in greater depth with more sophisticated instruments." @default.
