Pain neuroscience education: Which pain neuroscience education metaphor worked best?

Background The use of pain neuroscience education (PNE) has been shown to be effective in reducing pain, improving function and lowering fear and catastrophisation. Pain neuroscience education utilises various stories and metaphors to help patients reconceptualise their pain experience. To date no individualised study has looked at which stories and metaphors may be the most effective in achieving the positive outcomes found with the use of PNE. Objectives This study examined patient responses to the usefulness of the various stories and metaphors used during PNE for patients who underwent surgery for lumbar radiculopathy. Method Twenty-seven participants who received preoperative PNE from a previous randomised control trial (RCT) were surveyed 1-year post-education utilising a 5-point Likert scale (0 – ‘do not remember’, 4 – ‘very helpful’) on the usefulness of the various stories and metaphors used during the PNE session. Participant demographics and outcomes data (pain intensity, function and pain knowledge) were utilised from the previous RCT for analysis and correlations. Results Nineteen surveys were returned for a response rate of 70%. No story or metaphor mean was below 2 – ‘neutral’, lowest mean at 2.53; 6 of the 11 stories or metaphors scored a mean above 3 – ‘helpful’. Conclusion No individual story or metaphor stood out as being predominately important in being helpful in the recovery process through the use of PNE. Clinical implications The overall messages of reconceptualising pain during PNE may be more important than any individual story or metaphor.
Physical literacy of elementary school students in Gorontalo 2018

This study aims to examine the physical literacy of elementary school students in Gorontalo city. The study involved 338 participants consisting of 207 males and 131 females. The location was conducted at Stadium Merdeka 23 Januari. This is descriptive research with an evaluative method. The research instrument consisted of sprint tests, pull-ups, sit-ups and upright jumps and moderate running. Sprints are done to find out the level of students’ speed at a certain distance. Pull up is to find out the strength of the arm,whichis realized through the frequency of lifting the body's weight. Sit-ups are to determine the strength of abdominal muscles marked by frequency. Upright jump is to determine the explosive power of the leg muscles by making the highest jump. Running is a run that maintains the stability of accuracy from running fast to moderate. The results showed that the physical literacy level of elementary school students in Gorontalo City was divided into four categories, namely very low, low, medium,andgood. Students with a physical literacy in the low-level category were eight (2.36%), low physical literacy level was 135 (39.94%), medium category was 166 (49.11%) and good physical literacy level category was 38 people (9.79%).
Causative purpose adjuncts in Estonian and Finnish: A non-linear approach

Abstract In this article, we examine the form and meaning of a subtype of causative adjuncts, purpose adjuncts, in Estonian and Finnish. The analysis is based on the micro-modular approach of Conceptual Semantics (Nikanne 1990, 2005, 2018; Pörn 2004; Paulsen 2011a, 2011b; Petrova 2011). It provides a non-linear approach to linguistic causation, alternative to the linear models. By the term ‘non-linear’ we mean the involvement of separate levels of conceptual structure that influence the causative reading, and a separation of causation from the temporal flow of the situation. We propose two causative operators for subordinate causative structures, BECAUSE OF and LEAD TO. According to their temporal structures, we separate two types of purpose adjuncts: reason-purpose adjuncts and avoidance adjuncts. The causative effect of purpose is in our analysis related to the notion of intentionality.
FACTORS HAVING EFFECTS ON PEOPLE WHO DO ORIENTEERING SPORT IN TURKEY, START THIS SPORT AND THEIR EXPECTATIONS

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine factors encouraging people who do orienteering sport in Turkey to start this sport and their expectations. Material and Method: The survey used in the study was developed Sunay and Saracoglu and was applied to other branches, and its validity and reliability were accepted(Sunay & Saracoglu, 2003). For this survey applied to orienteering branch, expert opinions were taken, and required regulations were done. This study was carried out with 258 people, who do orienteering sport and whose age average was 26,77 ± 8.029. Because data did not show normal distribution as a result of Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality test, “Non-parametric” test was used. For multiple comparisons Kruskal Wallis H test and Mann-Whitney U test and descriptive statistics in analysis of distinction between groups were used in the situations in which normality and homogeneity of variances were not provided. Significance level for comparisons was determined as p<0,05. Findings: While friend and peer group was in the first place among factors encouraging people to start orienteering sport, effect of television channels on directing to sport was found very low. Among the reasons why they do the sport, liking orienteering sport is in the first place, and attending to a friend group is in the last places. While it has been seen that expectations of being chosen for National Team and playing for National Team are in the first places, expectations of being a refree are in the last places. When total points related to factors encouraging people to do sport, the reasons why they do sport and their expectations were evaluated, a significant difference between sex and sport years was not seen. A significant difference between the reasons why they do this sport and father’s educational level was seen (p<0.05). Between the reasons why they do this sport and father’s educational level, a negative relation was seen. A significant difference between the reasons why they do this sport and father’s profession. It was seen that individuals whose fathers were self-employment made for orienteering sport mostly. A significant relation between mother’s profession, mother’s educational level, sport year and factors encouraging people to do sport, the reasons why they do sport and their expectations was not determined. Conclusion: It is thought that positive approaches such as being chosen for national team and being a national player, friend and peer group and liking this branch provide positive contributions for individuals to make for orienteering branch.

Implementing project-based learning in a Persian translation class: a mixed-methods study

ABSTRACT The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Project-based learning (PjBL) in the Iranian context in an English-Persian translation class. Therefore, a project-based translation treatment was implemented to a course on advanced translation in a class of 21 students at a university in Iran. The study qualitatively investigated how students’ attitudes toward the treatment differed before and after the treatment and how PjBL was practically implemented. The improvement of students’ critical thinking, their attitudes toward their teamwork performance, and their translation quality were quantitatively examined. The data regarding the students’ attitudes were obtained through focus group interviews before and after the treatment as well as participant observations and audio-recordings. The improvement of the students’ critical thinking abilities, their attitudes toward their teamwork performance, and their translation quality were examined through a pre- and post-treatment model. The findings of the study indicated that the students’ attitudes toward the treatment were generally positive, not only before but also after the treatment, although certain challenges of applying PjBL in the Iranian context were observed. Empirical evidence indicated an improvement of the students’ translation quality, some of their critical thinking abilities as well as a few of their teamwork skills.
Organisational learning by hearts:a framework to explore organisational moral and immoral learning

The thesis aims to gain a deeper understanding of the organisational moral development (OMD) phenomenon. Three specific issues have been identified that hinders from gaining a deeper understanding of OMD: lack of ontological foundation for interdisciplinarity, inadequate moral philosophy and lack of understanding on strategic renewal in the moral dimension. To this, the thesis provides an alternative view of OMD by synthesising three perspectives: the field of organisational learning (OL), the meta-theory of critical realism (CR), and the worldview of Islam. As a result, a framework called ‘organisational learning by hearts’ (OLH) is developed, founded upon sound ontological foundation for interdisciplinarity, with adequate moral philosophy and an understanding on moral strategic renewal process. At the centre of the framework is the ‘heart’, the knowing essence of human, and its potential to become moral, as well as immoral. This then affects the process of organisational development: the moral and wise individual would contribute towards the moral development of the organisation, whereas the immoral individual would contribute towards immoral development. Two extreme ends of OMD are also conceived: organisational moral learning (OML) and organisational immoral learning (OIL). The framework has uncovered various factors and processes that play a part in the overall OMD, and strategies have been developed to ensure moral development. However, the OLH framework is heavily conceptual in nature. An empirical study is thus conducted to enrich the framework with real-life illustration.
MEDIATION EFFECT OF AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOUR ON THE CONNECTION BETWEEN TRAIT FORGIVENESS AND INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIP

Interest in forgiveness has explored in recent years as researchers and clinicians beg a n to recognize its value for maintaining emotional well-being, physical health, and healthy intimate relationships. Individuals who tend to adopt forgiving rather than revengeful strategies generally have less aggressive behaviours and better interpersonal relationships with others. We hypothesized that an individual’s interpersonal relationship could be predicted by his/her trait forgiveness and aggressive behaviour. We tested this hypothesis using a survey, in which five hundred and thirty-eight college students (195 males and 343 females) from five universities in China were investigated with Trait Forgiveness Scale (TFS), Interpersonal Disturbance Scale (IDS), Social-support Scale (SS) and Aggression Questionnaire (AQ). Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics were adopted to analyse the data of survey in SPSS 21. Results indicated that (a) significant gender differences existed in trait forgiveness, that is, trait forgiveness of female students was significantly higher than that of male students ( t = -2.252, p < 0.05); (b) trait forgiveness positively correlated with social support (r = 0.27 ， p< 0.001), and negatively correlated with interpersonal disturbance ( r = -0.35 ， p < 0.001) and aggressive behaviours ( r = -0.40 ， p < 0.001); (c) trait forgiveness was the best predictor of interpersonal relationship; (d) aggressive behaviour served as a partial mediator variable between trait forgiveness and interpersonal relationship. These results imply that although trait forgiveness and aggressive behaviour both affect an individual’s interpersonal relationship, the affecting paths were different. Trait forgiveness may directly affect interpersonal relationship, or indirectly through aggressive behaviour.
Office Clutter and Its Influence: Assessing Engagement, Satisfaction, Tension, Stress, and Emotional Exhaustion

Psychological home is a relatively new topic within the field of psychology, defined as a person’s need to self-identify with a physical environment. Clutter, defined as the over-accumulation of material items, is even less studied. Previous research has shown that clutter in the home may negatively influence a person’s well-being, but this tendency has not been investigated in workplace settings (Crum & Ferrari, 2019a; Crum & Ferrari, 2019b; Roster, Ferrari & Jurkat, 2016). Within workplace research, there is a construct called work-related well-being (Narainsamy & Van Der Westhuizen, 2013; Rothman, 2008), consisting of job satisfaction, employee engagement, burnout, and occupational stress. Previous research has shown that job-related tension may negatively impact job satisfaction (Bateman & Strasser, 1983). The present study will address whether clutter in the office negatively impacts work-place well-being, using a crowd-sourced sample of adults (n = 290) who work full-time within the United States in office and home settings. It was hypothesized that office clutter would negatively impact job satisfaction and employee engagement, positively impact emotional exhaustion and occupational stress, and job-related tension was expected to moderate the relationship between office clutter and job satisfaction. Multiple linear regressions and a moderated regression were used to analyze the data and test the hypotheses. This present study benefited both scientists and practitioners by helping them understand the possible benefits of companies initiating “clean desk policies” and how personal materials and spending habits may reflect workplace behaviors or impact work outcomes.
The Unique Contributions of Verbal Analogical Reasoning and Nonverbal Matrix Reasoning to Science and Maths Problem‐Solving in Adolescence

ABSTRACT Relational reasoning, the ability to detect meaningful patterns, matures through adolescence. The unique contributions of verbal analogical and nonverbal matrix relational reasoning to science and maths are not well understood. Functional magnetic resonance imaging data were collected during science and maths problem‐solving, and participants (N = 36, 11–15 years) also completed relational reasoning and executive function tasks. Higher verbal analogical reasoning associated with higher accuracy and faster reaction times in science and maths, and higher activation in the left anterior temporal cortex during maths problem‐solving. Higher nonverbal matrix reasoning associated with higher science accuracy, higher science activation in regions across the brain, and lower maths activation in the right middle temporal gyrus. Science associations mostly remained significant when individual differences in executive functions and verbal IQ were taken into account, while maths associations typically did not. The findings indicate the potential importance of supporting relational reasoning in adolescent science and maths learning.
Planning a Randomized Clinical Trial: An Overview

Summary: A high-quality clinical study often requires as much time in planning and preparation as it does in its execution. Although there are hundreds of steps required in the development of a study plan, this article focuses on important considerations that should be addressed in all study plans. These include: 1) asking clinically important questions, 2) conducting comprehensive literature searches, 2) refining the study question after the literature search, 3) choosing the appropriate study methodology (eligibility and outcomes), 4) determining study sample size, 5) identifying research team members, 6) writing the complete study proposal, 7) obtaining ethics approval, and 8) applying for funding.
Explaining the link between technostress and technology addiction for social networking sites: A study of distraction as a coping behavior

This paper investigates under what conditions stress from the use of SNS is linked to addiction to the use of the same SNS. Integrating three theoretical strands—the concept of feature‐rich Information Technology (IT), the theory of technology frames, and distraction as a coping behaviour—we theorize two types of coping behaviours in response to stressors experienced from the use of SNS. These are ‐ distraction through use of the same SNS and distraction through activities outside the use of the SNS. We hypothesize relationships between stressors from SNS use, the two coping behaviours and SNS addiction. We further articulate the role of SNS use habit. We test the hypotheses through a three‐wave survey of 444 Facebook users with data collected at three different points in time. The paper's contributions are to theorize and empirically validate the psychological concept of distraction as a coping behaviour in response to stress from the use of SNS and, in doing so, explain why there may be a link between technostress from and technology addiction to the use of the same SNS.
The utilization of BIM to achieve prescribed undergraduate learning outcomes

Building Information Modelling, a process integrating 3D graphics and data, is being adopted into the AECOO industries and by default into the delivery of undergraduate Architectural Programs. This object oriented approach offers a range of benefits over the more traditional CAD approach that uses lines and arcs and manual techniques, by adding the third dimension and creating a database model. It redefines the ways of thinking and working for students and future architects. The requirements of architectural programs are defined through their learning objectives meeting professional requirements such as those set by the ARB and the RIBA. This paper aims to investigate how the capabilities of BIM can be utilized to more effectively deliver the requirements of undergraduate architectural programs. Purpose: The aim of this paper is to illustrate how BIM can be utilized to meet the needs of undergraduate architectural learning outcomes. Methodology: This study considers the learning outcomes as defined under ARB and RIBA graduate criteria for Part 1 by analyzing a study case curriculum and learning objectives. Findings: This paper provides a recommendation for how teachers can more effectively integrate BIM into architectural undergraduate programs assisting undergraduate student development. Originality / Value: This paper addresses changing technologies and process and provides a timely consideration of how BIM can be adopted in the architectural undergraduate domain.
Supervision experiences of postgraduate research students at one South African higher education institution

This paper is based on a study that was conducted at a university based in the Eastern Cape, South Africa. The research aimed to explore and describe challenges that are likely to limit the success of postgraduate research students, mostly focusing on the relationship between students and supervisors. The study adopted a case study design with qualitative data. A self-constructed interview guide with open-ended questions was utilised as the main data collection tool from a sample of 34 postgraduate students from one faculty of the university in question. The study findings revealed that communication breakdown, poor feedback, non-availability of some supervisors and lack of ethical consideration were some of the major factors that contributed to negative supervisory experiences of the students who participated in the study. Based on the findings, the study recommended a number of intervention strategies that could be put in place for both students and supervisors to improve the supervision experience. Among these are the adoption of collaborative cohort model, supervisor training and communication guidelines.
Millennial Consumers’ Responses to Cause-Related Marketing in Support of LGBTQ Homeless Youth

This study explored Millennial consumers’ responses to a cause-related marketing (CRM) initiative for a sensitive social cause—lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) homeless youth. Qualitative and quantitative research methods were employed to examine the effectiveness of CRM in generating financial support for LGBTQ homeless youth. Findings revealed that self-cause congruence may be an important factor in determining Millennial consumers’ responses to a CRM initiative for LGBTQ homeless youth; whereas, message frame/appeal may be less important for generating response to such an initiative. Findings also indicated that gender, information processing, guilt, and skepticism influenced Millennial consumers’ attitudes toward brand, attitudes toward cause, and behavioral intentions toward the CRM initiative. These findings offer implications for brands/companies that may wish to engage in CRM initiative in support of sensitive social causes. By addressing a sensitive social cause—LGBTQ homeless youth—findings provide an original contribution to the CRM literature. Findings reveal that self-cause congruence is an important predictor of behavioral intention toward the LGBTQ social cause. This provides an implication for marketers who want to target their relationship-building efforts toward individuals who have demonstrated prior engagement with a social cause. Findings also have implications for brands/companies that wish to develop CRM initiatives for controversial causes.
First-line gefitinib combined with simplified FOLFOX-6 in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor-positive advanced colorectal cancer

3659 Background: The orally active epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor, gefitinib (IRESSA) shows promising activity in several tumor types. Preclinical studies suggest gefitinib has synergistic activity in combination with oxaliplatin in colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. This Phase II multicenter study evaluated gefitinib combined with FOLFOX-6 as first-line treatment in patients (pts) with EGFR-positive advanced CRC. Methods: Pts received gefitinib 250 mg/day combined with simplified FOLFOX-6 every 2 weeks for ≥8 weeks in order to be evaluable for response. Treatment was continued until progressive disease (PD), unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal. Pts with clinical benefit after up to a maximum of 10 courses could continue gefitinib monotherapy. Tumor assessment (CT scan) by RECIST was made at baseline and every 4 cycles. All adverse events (AEs) were assessed by NCI-CTC. Serum EGFR was evaluated at baseline and every assessment. Results: 47/49 pts met the entry criteria: 21 .
Effect of Asthma and Cystic Fibrosis on Health Utilization and Education Progress in Children and Adolescents.

Aims. To determining the effect of asthma, cystic fibrosis (CF), and both on healthcare utilization, absences from school, and rate of progress in school. Background. Previous studies on academic progression and health care utilization in children with the respiratory diseases of asthma and CF have been limited or conflicting. Design. Non experimental, cross-sectional, secondary data analysis using a multilevel probability sample. Methods. The response of all persons under 18 years of age in the U.S. 1997-2012 National Health Interview Survey to interviewer questions on demographic, educational, and health care utilization items were analyzed. The mean and 95% confidence intervals for these variables were compared for children with asthma, CF, and controls. Results/Findings. Children with asthma, CF, or both had a higher utilization of all major types of healthcare services than children with neither of these conditions. Children with asthma or CF were more likely to have not only poor health, but more rapid declines in recent health with the greatest decline in those with both conditions. The number of missed school days was also higher, and highest in children with both CF and asthma. Despite the many missed school days, children with asthma paradoxically had a greater rate of progression in school than those without asthma. Those with CF or CF with asthma had a slower rate. Conclusion. Asthma in CF has a negative impact on attendance and progress in school largely opposite that of asthma alone. Asthma and Cystic Fibrosis 3
