Social Relationships and Health Improvement Programme
Lead Research Organisation:
University of Glasgow
Department Name: UNLISTED
Abstract
Social relationships (in families, intimate or sexual relationships, or based on broader friendships/social networks and communities) are fundamental to the development of our attitudes and behaviour from childhood and throughout life. Relationships shape health at various levels, both as a source of risk and as a protective factor. Understanding how social relationships affect health and are related to other biological, social, and environmental factors is crucial to informing intervention development. Interventions that target relationships and social networks also have the potential to influence other people who may be connected to these which could be a factor in helping people to maintain behaviour change, the ‘holy grail’ of behaviour change research.
We will study the processes through which our relationships influence health and wellbeing using a mix of qualitative and quantitative research. We will then use this information to develop and test interventions that could improve health and reduce health inequalities. We will examine the characteristics and influence of relationships among groups at risk of ill health and health inequalities, with a particular focus on the role of social support and social networks. Technology is rapidly changing social networks and relationships, and we will explore how this influences health and how social media and smartphone apps can be exploited to mobilise social networks and improve health.

Technical Summary
Aims and objectives
Social relationships (be they familial, intimate or sexual relationships, or based on broader friendships/social networks and communities) are fundamental to the development of our attitudes and behaviour from childhood and across the life course leading to advantages and also inequalities in health. The aim of the Social Relationships and Health Improvement programme is to examine the dynamic mechanisms by which social relationships and networks influence health and behaviours across the life course, and to translate these understandings into interventions to modify relationship influences, and improve population health. Our objectives are to:
1. Measure and explain the influence of social relationships on health behaviours and inequalities
2. Discover how to modify social relationship influences to improve population health and reduce inequalities
3. Develop and evaluate theory-driven, relationship-based interventions to improve population health and reduce inequalities
Research plan and methodology
We will use a range of qualitative and quantitative methods and disciplinary perspectives to generate new understandings on the influence of relationships on health and identify the crucial mechanisms that form the whole, or a part of, interventions. We will in turn develop and evaluate multilevel, translational interventions to improve health and reduce inequalities. We will seek to develop interventions that work across the four supra-individual levels of the socio-ecological framework (relationships, settings, neighbourhoods and policy); novel research made possible by the Unit’s integrated cross-programme working.
The programme will include four inter-related themes on: families; peers and social networks; intimate and sexual relationships; and communities.
The families theme will focus on the development and evaluation of early years interventions and address two core knowledge gaps: the role of maternal support; and the nature of fathers’ involvement with their children, and how such involvement might be optimised through parenting interventions.
The peers and social networks theme will examine how social networks and the resources drawn from social support and connectedness influence health, behaviour and social norms. We will identify the social support mechanisms in interventions to initiate and maintain behaviour change and the potential of technology based interventions to facilitate this.
The intimate and sexual relationships theme will explore the potential mechanisms of change within relationships that could improve a range of mental, physical, and primarily sexual, health outcomes. A crucial aspect will be in exploring how to counter negative power relations, gendered or otherwise, within relationships, with a particular focus on the perpetration of gender-based violence across the life course.
The communities theme will focus on to affect change at the community level via a community participative approach. It will have a specific focus on identity-based (e.g. gay or professional) and online communities and will explore how to operationalise the concept of social cohesion, and its potential impact on social networks.
We will work with our clinical, policy, and international partners to explore how to incorporate our findings into changes in policy, practice, and intervention development at the international level.

Description | The MBML project comprises a website (http://mybody-mylife.org/ ) and travelling exhibition which draws on real women's experiences of abortion, and presents aspects of their stories in a creative 'pop-up shop' format. The exhibition opened at the Edinburgh Fringe in August 2017. Carrie Purcell and Julie Riddell were amongst the volunteers who staffed the exhibition, which will also visit Oxford, Belfast and London in 2017/18. |
Type Of Art | Artistic/Creative Exhibition |
Year Produced | 2017 |
Impact | The Edinburgh exhibition attracted almost 300 visitors over its 6 day run, many of whom spent a significant amount of time engaging with the exhibits, and left very positive feedback. Several visitors also contributed their own experiences of abortion, which have now been incorporated into the project. |

Title | Production of pack of cards to explore ideal support design |
Description | visual prompts are often used as part of coproduction approaches and where one of the research questions sought to explore participants ideas on support gaps it made sense to provide a set of visual prompt cards to help break the question down. Rebecca Phipps designed a pack of 30 cards; the content of which was informed by a review of existing support services. Each card featured an image on the front, and a few words on the reverse side. Content is purposely ambiguous in order to allow participants the freedom to assign their own meanings and use them how they wish. |

Policy Influence Type | Contribution to a national consultation/review |
Impact | This consultation was with the Scottish Government, in which we responded to a call to provide evidence responding to the Covid-19 pandemic regulations of tele-medicine and early medical abortion (EMA) at home. Members of the research team provided evidence from previous studies conducted at the Unit (and my as yet unpublished Masters and PhD research) to answer these questions. Our evidence proposed that the continuation of EMA at home, would improve access for some individuals (e.g. lower SES, those with disability, etc). We also included the caveat though, that this remote healthcare option should be just that, an option. In person abortion care should continue to be represented as a choice for women. |

Policy Influence Type | Contribution to a national consultation/review |
Impact | The Health and Social Care Committee (a Commons Select Committee of the UK parliament) launched an inquiry into sexual health. This was in response to concern about increasing diagnosis of STIs. Specifically, recent figures show that syphilis increased by 20% between 2016-17, and gonorrhoea increased by 22% over the same period. Extensively drug resistant strains of gonorrhoea have also emerged. Over the same time period there has been a reduction of 8% in the number of chlamydia tests carried out, continuing the trend of the previous year. Service providers argue that increases in STI diagnoses, against a backdrop of significant financial pressures, have left sexual health services at 'tipping point'. The committee sought evidence on a range of aspects including: recent trends, prevention efforts, commissioning of services, de-comissioned services, governance. They were primarily interested in groups at risk: MSM, young people, black ethnic minorities. Kirstin Mitchell worked with other members of the National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles (Natsal) team (Sonnenberg, Mercer and Field) to submit evidence, primarily pertaining to recent trend and prevention and based on data from the most recent Natsal survey (Natsal-3). The deadline for submission was 1st October 2018. The outcome of the committee proceedings is not yet known. |

Impact | I gave an invited talk at the British Association of Sexual Health and HIV (BASHH) Scientific Meeting, at the Royal Society of Medicine Annual General Meeting. The audience comprised clinicians, therapists and other health practitioners. The event was titled 'Sexual Excitement - A feast of delight or despair' and was organised the BASHH sexual dysfunction Interest Group as part of the BASHH ordinary general meeting. The purpose of the meeting was to raise awareness, educate and stimulate discussion among practitioners. I was asked to present on premature orgasm in women. Very little is known about this problem and the purpose of my talk was to present data on prevalence and challenge the audience to think about why this issue has been so neglected. The day counted towards CPD points for practitioners. |

Title | Course in Developing and Evaluating Social and Public Health Interventions |
Description | A small team from Glasgow University, Danny Wight, Cindy Gray, Andy Baxter and Jo Halliday, delivered a nine day workshop in Moshi, Tanzania, to strengthen East African capacity to develop and evaluate complex interventions. The workshop presented, reviewed and adapted the GU Master's module 'Improving Health and Society' and trained the ten experienced researchers from Malawi, Tanzania, Uganda and Kenya to further deliver it in their own contexts. The module trains researchers and intervention developers in the Six Steps for Quality Intervention Development (6SQuID) model, an evidence-based approach to the process of developing programmes to improve health and society, and the key principles of evaluation. Participants of the workshop are planning to build this into courses for postgraduate students, research staff, and government and NGO researchers and programmers to promote better development, evaluation and scale-up of effective projects and policies. Additionally, this first trial of the workshop will result in reproducible materials to run similar training sessions for other academics to further develop courses in new international contexts. |

Title | Gay Men's Sexual Health Survey |
Description | The Gay Men's Sexual Health Survey was designed with Paul Flowers (Caledonian University) and Graham Hart (SPHSU and now University College London) to examine changes in gay men's sexual behaviour over time, and to further understand the HIV epidemic in Scotland. The survey has been conducted every three years since 1996. Since 2005, we have also collected oral fluid samples to be tested anonymously for HIV to improve the estimate of HIV prevalence and undiagnosed infection in this population. The data set now includes 7 waves of data, collected every 3 years between 1996 and 2014. |

Title | MobiQ: A modular Android application for collecting social interaction, repeated survey, GPS and photographic data (Mark McCann) |
Description | The MobiQ app for Android smartphones is a feature-rich application enabling a novel approach to data collection for longitudinal surveys. It combines continuous automatic background data collection with user-supplied data. It can prompt users to complete questionnaires at regular intervals and allows users to upload photographs for social research projects. The app has the capability to collect GPS location data, and calls and text frequency (excluding content) unobtrusively. The app transmits data to a secure cloud rather than storing research data on the phone, but can also store data temporarily if a data connection is unavailable; hence, MobiQ offers data security advantages over text- or web-based surveys using phones. MobiQ has been pilot tested in the field in a social science research project and is able to collect longitudinal social research data. Due to its modular and flexible design, MobiQ can easily be adapted to suit different research questions. Furthermore, its core design approach which allows for long-term power efficient data collection can be re-used outside the social sciences domain for other kinds of smartphone-based data-driven projects. Projects that have a requirement for communications-based, sensors-based, user-based data collection or any combination of these may find our code and design approach beneficial. |

Impact | Research on young people using SHARE data set has clarified the likely limits of schools' influence on young people's sexual risk taking, whether through formal programmes or the broader school ethos. Reinforced evidence that teenage pregnancy is more attributable to social inequalities than lack of sexual health knowledge or skills. Scottish National Sexual Health Strategy recommends that SHARE should constitute part of the sex education curriculum throughout Scottish secondary schools. |

Title | Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study, Public Use, United States, 1998-2017 |
Description | The ICPSR catalog contains variable-level metadata for the public data associated with this study, which enables data discovery and comparison. The public data associated with ICPSR 31622 are available through the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study website. The Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study (FFCWS) follows a cohort of nearly 5,000 children born in large U.S. cities between 1998 and 2000 (roughly three-quarters of whom were born to unmarried parents). These parents and their children are referred to as "Fragile Families" to underscore that they are families and that they are at greater risk of breaking up and living in poverty than more traditional families. The FFCWS was originally designed to address four main questions of great interest to researchers and policy makers: (1) What are the conditions and capabilities of unmarried parents, especially fathers?; (2) What is the nature of the relationships between unmarried parents?; (3) How do children born into these families fare?; and (4) How do policies and environmental conditions affect families and children? The FFCWS consists of interviews with mothers, fathers, and/or primary caregivers at birth, and again when children are ages one, three, five, nine, and fifteen. The parent interviews collect information on attitudes, relationships, parenting behavior, demographic characteristics, health (mental and physical), economic and employment status, neighborhood characteristics, and program participation. At ages nine and fifteen, children were interviewed directly during home visits or on the telephone. The direct child interviews collect data on family relationships, home routines, schools, peers, and physical and mental health, as well as health behaviors. Many of the measures used in this study overlap with measures from other large-scale studies such as the Infant Health and Development Program (IHDP), Early Head Start, the Teenage Parent Demonstration, and the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study--Birth Cohort 2000 (ECLS-B). |

Many of the measures used in this study overlap with measures from other large-scale studies such as the Infant Health and Development Program (IHDP), Early Head Start, the Teenage Parent Demonstration, and the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study--Birth Cohort 2000 (ECLS-B). |

Title | The Future of Families and Child Wellbeing Study (FFCWS), Public Use, United States, 1998-2017 |
Description | This catalog record includes detailed variable-level descriptions, enabling data discovery and comparison. The data are not archived at ICPSR. Users should consult the data owners (via Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study) directly for details on obtaining the data. The Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study (FFCWS) follows a cohort of nearly 5,000 children born in large U.S. cities between 1998 and 2000 (roughly three-quarters of whom were born to unmarried parents). These parents and their children are referred to as "Fragile Families" to underscore that they are families and that they are at greater risk of breaking up and living in poverty than more traditional families. The FFCWS was originally designed to address four main questions of great interest to researchers and policy makers: (1) What are the conditions and capabilities of unmarried parents, especially fathers?; (2) What is the nature of the relationships between unmarried parents?; (3) How do children born into these families fare?; and (4) How do policies and environmental conditions affect families and children? The FFCWS consists of interviews with mothers, fathers, and/or primary caregivers at birth, and again when children are ages one, three, five, nine, and fifteen. The parent interviews collect information on attitudes, relationships, parenting behavior, demographic characteristics, health (mental and physical), economic and employment status, neighborhood characteristics, and program participation. At ages nine and fifteen, children were interviewed directly during home visits or on the telephone. The direct child interviews collect data on family relationships, home routines, schools, peers, and physical and mental health, as well as health behaviors. Many of the measures used in this study overlap with measures from other large-scale studies such as the Infant Health and Development Program (IHDP), Early Head Start, the Teenage Parent Demonstration, and the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study--Birth Cohort 2000 (ECLS-B). |

Description | ASSIST Global |
Organisation | De La Salle University |
Country | Philippines |
Sector | Academic/University |
PI Contribution | ASSIST is an effective theory-based early secondary-schools-based smoking prevention intervention implemented in UK and France. The ASSIST model has significant potential to be effective in LMICs, particularly because it invests in peer supporters embedded within school systems and adolescent social networks. Provided school systems are significantly developed and attendance high, the model has potential for relatively low-cost sustained effects. The project aims to undertake preparatory research and build research partnerships ahead of a proposal to a larger GCRF call to undertake implementation trials of ASSIST in two/more settings. The University of Glasgow co-investigator team will: • Undertake desk-based research on country contexts to capture available evidence base (scoping review). • Provide orientation regarding the ASSIST model and support partners in scoping and PPI work design and set-up. • Contribute to planning and preparation for meeting of research partners in Glasgow - including identification of trainers, preparing training/lectures. • Contribute to proposal writing and wider dissemination. • Be a central point-of-contact supporting the practical management of relationship building with potential partners (including online/group diary communications). • Set up contract with Decipher Impact Ltd. • Set up sub-contracts with research partners and arrange transfer of sub-grants. • Manage arrangements for co-investigator country visits. • Co-ordinate arrangements for Glasgow partners' meeting including flights, visas and accommodation. • Contribute to planning and preparation for Glasgow partners' meeting. |
Collaborator Contribution | Project partner involvement includes: • Undertaking in-country scoping work to establish what is known about adolescent smoking patterns and to further articulate adolescent health priorities for a potential similar model extending to other health behaviours. • Undertaking PPI work with adolescents and teachers to ascertain views on the ASSIST model and identify potential barriers and facilitators stemming from the local context, as well as any in-country adaptations to be made (e.g. in terms of specific norms/beliefs about smoking, and which messages most likely to be effective). • Exploring options for message delivery via social media or other channels (depending on access to mobile technology). • Establishing links, and consulting key local stakeholders in educational and health policy settings. • Making initial enquires regarding suitable research sites and procedures for obtaining permission to undertake intervention and evaluation research. • Identifying potential delivery partners (training organisation specialising in health and young people) and discuss partnership mechanisms. • Inputting into agenda of a Glasgow partners' meeting by highlighting their own training needs and areas of expertise to train others. |

PI Contribution | I planned, co-ordinated and facilitated the weekend residential along with members of the TRIUMPH National Management Group. The weekend was the first meeting of TRIUMPH's Youth Advisory Group made up of 16 young people (aged 16-22) from across the UK. The residential stated on Thursday evening and ended after lunch on Saturday. The aim of this residential was to set the importance of young people's participation from the beginning of the network by meaningfully involving young people in discussions about the development of the network. The key objectives of this residential are: 1. Get to know each other and build a strong YAG team for working with TRIUMPH 2. Develop a clear understanding of the role of the YAG how the YAG will work with the NMG 3. Start working on a strategy for young people's wider involvement in the network 4. Develop a plan for the young people's section of the TRIUMPH website and how to take this forward |
Collaborator Contribution | The partners worked with us to recruit, support and communicate with YAG members. Each partner organisation allocated one support worker who attended the residential with the role of supporting the four young people from their organisation. |
Impact | The short film from the residential can be seen at the url above. There is also a report of the discussions that took place over the weekend and an analysis of the themes that emerged from these conversations. These themes will in turn feed into TRIUMPH's agenda setting workshops that will help to identify the network's funding priorities. YAG members also identified the importance of young people providing training for adults, and on the back of this YAG members provided a day of training for NMG members in September. Discussions from the weekend also led to a plan to develop an interactive password-protected web platform for YAG members to communicate with researchers and resulted in changes to the TRIUMPH public website. |

Title | SEED Intervention: a Stratified, Cluster Randomised Trial of a Multi-component Primary School Intervention that follows the Pupils' Transition into Secondary School |
Description | The SEED study is a cluster randomised trial of a school-based public health intervention. We ticked the 'clinical trial' box because there was no option to tick for a cluster randomised trial of a public health intervention. The intervention is as follows: Data collected on emotional wellbeing of students is fed back to schools alongside benchmarked data and used to support reflective discussion sessions led by educational psychologists. This enables schools to make action plans at classroom level but also whole school level (interventions such as restorative justice). The focus of these interventions is particularly on managing transition from primary to secondary school. Trial results are currently being analysed. The report will be submitted mid April 2020. Scottish Government are interested in scaled up roll out. SEED has been developed and implemented in close partnership with Scottish government (for instance the Scottish Government is adopting questions from the SEED survey into the census to enable sharing across data sources/support consistency in what is collected) The intervention scoping, development and feasibility trial was funded by Scottish Government/CSO. Phase III trial Evaluation funded by NIHR. |

Title | STASH Intervention (Sexually Transmitted infections And Sexual Health) |
Description | STASH is a school-based and peer-led sexual health intervention in which influential students (nominated by their peers) are trained to deliver positive sexual health messages to their year group via face-to-face conversation and social media. The intervention is an adaption of an effective school-based smoking prevention intervention called ASSIST. The feasibility and acceptability of STASH has been examined via an exploratory trial of 6 schools, funded by the National Institute of Health Research (completed in 2019). The costs of delivering the intervention were met by the Scottish Government and Edinburgh and Lothian Health Foundation. STASH was found to be acceptable and feasible with the weight of evidence supportive of continuation to a larger scale evaluation. The next step is to apply for funding to undertake this trial. |
Type | Preventative Intervention - Behavioural risk modification |

Results and Impact | A request was made by a local nursery for a public health activity to be delivered during their "healthy, happy me" week. We used this opportunity to pilot whether the best start in life and health in the city games could be used with 3-5 year olds if small adaptions were made. The Best Start in Life baby was used, along with picture cards covering the themes of "safety", "play", "family", "food" etc., in a guided game of Health in the City. The children identified that they wanted to live in warm, safe and nice looking houses by comparing and contrasting the nice houses with those with broken and boarded up windows. They also reflected upon some of the things that they had been learning in nursery to create a safe and healthy town that had policemen, firemen, doctors, green spaces, traffic crossings and shops that sold fruit and vegetables. They were also able to communicate basic health and safety messages such as "always cross the road with the green man", "don't play in the road", "the beep beep beep of the fire alarm means there is a fire and we should go outside" and "playing keeps us healthy and fit". |

A group of STASH peer supporters from one of the study schools ran one of the 'break-out' sessions and led participants through some of the activities they had undertaken at the STASH training day. The session was designed and facilitated by them, supported by their contact teacher. It was noticeable that the STASH peer supporters were confident and comfortable running the session, and displayed a level of comfort talking about the topic of sex that surpassed some of the adult professional participants. |

Results and Impact | This workshop was presented at the "Children and Young People's Mental Health and Wellbeing: Communities, families, resilience and resistance conference". The workshop was led by Christina McMellon and Alice MacLachlan from the TRIUMPH network, and was developed in partnership with young people involved in the TRIUMPH Youth Advisory Group, and was aimed at practitioners and researchers working with young people. The objective of the workshop was to get people thinking about how young people can be involved in research relating to mental health, by discussing the opportunities for engagement at each stage in the research process (generating ideas, research design, doing the research, writing up and dissemination) using a road-map activity, and also a group discussion around the challenges of involving young people in the research process. The workshop also provided an opportunity to promote the work of the TRIUMPH network. Approximately 15 people attended the workshop, including mental health practitioners, researchers and third sector organisations. A number of workshop attendees signed up as TRIUMPH network members following the workshop, and were interested in finding out more about how young people could be more involved in their own work. |
