BreathTrack: Tracking Indoor Human Breath Status via Commodity WiFi

In this paper, we propose a contact-free breath tracking system, BreathTrack, to track the status of breath using the off-the-shelf WiFi devices. BreathTrack exploits the phase variation of the channel state information (CSI) to track human breath. To resolve the phase distortions introduced by the hardware imperfection of the commodity WiFi chips, BreathTrack utilizes both the hardware and software correction methods. The time-invariant PLL phase offset is calibrated by the hardware correction using cables and splitters, while the time-varying carrier frequency offset, sampling frequency offset and packet detection delay are removed by the software corrections using the phase difference between the CSI at the receiver antennas and that at the reference antenna connected from the transmitter. Moreover, BreathTrack utilizes the sparse recovery method to find the dominant path in the multipath indoor environment and derive the corresponding complex attenuation coefficient. Then, the phase variation of the complex attenuation coefficient is utilized to extract the detailed breath status and the breath rate. Extensive experiments are conducted to show that BreathTrack could estimate the breath rate with the median accuracy of over 99% in most scenarios, and could track the detailed status of breath directly using the raw phase variation.
Music Therapy with Children Hospitalised for Severe Injury or Illness

This paper provides an overview of the needs of children receiving care in hospital, including a review of the research and case-study literature addressing music therapy practice with this population. The use of music therapy in individual programs to address pain, psychosocial needs and anxiety in hospitalised children is described. A brief case study outlines the ways in which the therapist must be flexible and adaptive in approaching the time and space dimensions of work in this context.
Improving Caregiver Coping and Reducing Recidivism with a Pediatric Burn Discharge Education Toolkit.

4 Improving Caregiver Coping and Reducing Recidivism with a Pediatric Burn Discharge Education Toolkit. 5 References . 19 Appendix A . 23 Step-by-Step Instructions for “Wet to Dry” Burn Dressing Change . 23 PEDIATRIC BURN DISCHARGE EDUCATION TOOLKIT 4 Abstract In 2015, 4,506 children from 0-19 years of age were hospitalized with burn injuries in the United States (Center for Disease Control and Prevention, 2017). From 2013-2014, 325 out of 11,940 pediatric burn patients discharged from US facilities had unscheduled readmissions within 30 days (Wheeler et al., 2018). Adequate discharge education and quality of transitions from hospital to home will help prevent negative health outcomes and readmissions (Braet, Weltens, Bruyneel, & Sermeus, 2016). In this quality improvement project, caregivers of pediatric burnIn 2015, 4,506 children from 0-19 years of age were hospitalized with burn injuries in the United States (Center for Disease Control and Prevention, 2017). From 2013-2014, 325 out of 11,940 pediatric burn patients discharged from US facilities had unscheduled readmissions within 30 days (Wheeler et al., 2018). Adequate discharge education and quality of transitions from hospital to home will help prevent negative health outcomes and readmissions (Braet, Weltens, Bruyneel, & Sermeus, 2016). In this quality improvement project, caregivers of pediatric burn patients were assessed on their day of discharge with the Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale (RHDS)Parent Form (Weiss & Piacentine, 2006), received individualized discharge education, a burn-specific discharge education toolkit, and two follow-up phone calls. A Post-Discharge Coping Difficulty Scale (PDCDS) (Fitzgerald Miller, Piacentine and Weiss, 2008) was administered during the caregivers’ second follow-up phone call. Role theory guided this project as education was provided to help caregivers with their new role of caring for their child’s burn at home. Five parent/child dyads were included. The caregivers (mothers and fathers) scored a mean of 248.4 ± 32.16 out of 290 on the RHDS-Parent Form, with 290 representing complete readiness for discharge. Two weeks after discharge, parents scored a mean of 30.2 ± 20.1 on the PDCDS, with 100 indicating the greatest coping difficulty. During the three-month data collection from April-June 2019, there were 16 admitted pediatric burn patients with two readmissions during the month of May. No patients who received toolkits were readmitted, compared to 2/11 who did not receive toolkits. The distribution of toolkits was feasible and provided parents with necessary tools to care for burns at home.
Differences in Experiences and Outcomes of Transfer and Native Students in an Elementary Education Program: an Exploratory Study

This research targeted elementary education graduates of a large Southwestern university who were transfer students, and compared them to native students on selected variables. These variables included retention in teaching, and perception of supports and obstacles at the university. The sample consisted of 143 respondents: 73 native and 70 transfer students. Data were collected through submission of online surveys and through postal mail. Quantitative and qualitative analyses were used to answer the research questions. Astin’s input-environment-outcome model provided the conceptual and theoretical framework for this study. Native and transfer students considered student teaching to be the “most helpful” course or service during their time at the university, yet both felt they lacked elements of preparation for teaching in the real world. Transfer students reported the following as supports during their transition from community college to university: academic advising, finances, support network, and the university. They reported these obstacles: university bureaucracy, credit transfer, expenses, and adapting to campus. There was no significant difference between the two groups’ intentions to remain in teaching (p = .249), and a statistically non-significant higher percentage of transfer students than native students reported to be teaching at the time of survey completion (p = .614). The findings support further inquiry into support systems for transfer students, as well as further examination of teacher preparation curricula.
Examining the 360° Case Conceptualization Process: A Comparison of Two Groups

An examination of the differences between two supervision models/processes used for case conceptualizations in group supervision was conducted. The first group utilized a relatively new construct, titled the 360° Case Conceptualization Process, which incorporates a strengths-based method encouraging reflective practice and risk taking. The second group in the study utilized a supervision format that assigns a familiar fictional character of interest to each group (Peer Roles). The authors utilized a case study design to provide an in-depth look at the 360° Process in practice while also making some comparisons to a group supervision class utilizing a different model. Results demonstrated the 360° Process group focused more on developmental considerations of both the counselor and the client and utilized less instructor directives than the Peer Roles group.
MILLENNIALS IN THE WORKPLACE: THE EFFECT OF PSYCHOLOGICAL CAPITAL ON WORK ENGAGEMENT WITH PERCEIVED ORGANIZATIONAL SUPPORT

This study aims to examine relationship between psychological capital with work Engagement on generation Y Independent variable in this study was Psychological Capital (Luthans, et al., 2007), the dependent variable was work Engagement (Schaufeli and Bakker, 2004) and Perceived organizational Support as mediator between them. Data came from 100 employees of Y generation with an age range between 23-32 years. Instruments that used in this study was an online questionnaires, where the scale of PsyCap using PCQ, work Engagement scale using UWES questionnaire and Perceived Organizational Support scale using Eisenberger et al. (1986). Data analysis was performed using simple and multiple linear regression methods based on the mediation test analysis techniques of Baron and Kenny (1986). The results of the analysis show that perceived organizational support mediates the effect of psychological capital to work Engagement on Millennials.
Effort gains in teams through fellow team members' affective social support

In the last decades teamwork has become a predominant means to structure work. Several aspects contribute to effective and motivating teamwork environments – one such aspect might be fellow team members’ affective social support. Although positive effects of social support from various sources on work-related outcomes have previously been documented, it is not clear whether the reception of fellow team members’ support can indeed trigger additional effort in the recipients above and beyond the level of individual work and teamwork without support. Fellow team members’ support might present a rather neglected but powerful aspect of motivating teamwork. Based on the Model of Social Support within Teams (Hüffmeier & Hertel, 2011), this dissertation addressed the motivating effects of fellow team members’ social support on various levels of psychological functioning. The focus was specifically placed on affective social support and its two subtypes social encouragement and social recognition. Moreover, several underlying psychological processes for the motivating effects of social encouragement and social recognition were proposed and investigated. The first three studies focused on the motivating effects of fellow team members’ affective social support on three levels of psychological functioning including existing beliefs about motivating teamwork, effort intentions, and effort expenditure. Study 1 investigated beliefs about motivating teamwork among employees with teamwork experience (N = 130) and showed that fellow team members’ social support was a frequently reported source of motivating teamwork. Study 2 explored effort intentions among athletes of team sports (N = 94) with several outlined training scenarios and showed significant additional increases in effort intentions due to the reception of affective social support. Study 3 investigated actual effort expenditure among student dyads with a persistence task (N = 88) and showed significant performance increases due to the reception of fellow team members’ social support over and above teamwork without support. In order to investigate the underlying processes of the motivating effects of affective social support, Study 4 pre-tested self-constructed scales for assessing the assumed mediating variables in a panel study with employees with teamwork experience (N = 262). The results revealed adequate validity for the constructed scales. Study 5 – a diary study among employees in teamwork settings (N = 208) – explored the within-person relationship between daily perceived affective support from fellow team members’ and daily work motivation along with several mediating processes. Multilevel modeling results revealed the assumed positive relation between day-level perceived affective support and work motivation and that particularly positive affect mediated
Impact of the wheelchair in the development of upper body specific muscle training among students Ectomorph

Ectomorph’s body is fragile, with long, slender, poorly muscled extremities and delicate bones. Through this problem, PE teacher must alter its expectations drew upon the changes in body shapes in the early stage of growth. Indeed, in similar as disabling defects due to the lack of general muscular strength via ectomorph body shape. For this proposal, we emphasized the experimental method, including 40 males’ ectomorph students, chosen by the intentional method. Divided into two groups (Experiment (ES), control (CS)) based on upper body muscular disabilities, during the 2016/2017 school year, at Zagllole secondary school, Mostaganem academic. To test our hypothesis, we focused on two training programs traditional with weight (CS) vs Wheelchair (ES) as tools to strengthen upper body musculature, within 6-weeks under researchers’ supervision, integrate as 15 minutes of warm-up during basketball cycle in the second semester. Whereas to evaluate their progress, we based on press up test and multiple-RM assessments (Pectoral (Pecs) - Deltoids (Delts) - Latissimus Dorsi (lats) - Biceps- Triceps- Abdominals (Abs)). In the beginning and at the end of the program basketball cycle. Based on statistical applied, we confirmed that the integration of the wheelchair as a strength tool improves the general muscular strength via ectomorph body shape better than the traditional. The wheelchair is a benefited tool muscle training that improves the muscle building, muscle strength and muscle endurance via ectomorph body shape better than the traditional method. Interpret in similar studies via manual wheelchair frames and components as manufactured materials having high strength-to-weight ratios. Finally, we approved in the case of this study that few wheelchair rounds around the gym is enough to improve strength in any strength program.
Experiences of involuntary childlessness and treatment in the UK: what has changed in 20 years?

Abstract This study examined the financial, emotional and relationship impacts of involuntary childlessness and treatment, and the satisfaction with support from professionals. 796 participants in the UK completed an online survey based on a similar survey conducted in 1997. 55% of participants had to pay for at least part of their treatment. High levels of distress were experienced and 42% experienced suicidal feelings at least occasionally. Those most at risk of distress and suicidal feelings had experienced unsuccessful treatment outcomes, spent longer trying to conceive and reported some relationship strains. While 75% would like to have received counselling if it had been free, 45% only received such counselling and 54% of these had to fund some of it themselves. Although advances have been made in improving the availability of funded treatment and psychological support, involuntary childlessness and treatment continue to have financial, emotional and relationship consequences for many people. While counselling was generally reported to be useful, an approach involving all fertility clinic staff in the psychosocial care of clients is advisable.
Effects of Corporate Social Responsibility on Customer Satisfaction and Organizational Attractiveness: A Signaling Perspective

In recent years, many researchers have attempted to determine the mechanisms of how corporate social responsibility (CSR) brings financial benefits to a firm. However, many chief financial officers (CFOs) throughout the world are uncertain about the strategic value of CSR, and no consensus has been reached on defining how CSR creates value. Drawing on signaling theory, we explore the effects of the multidimensional construct of CSR on organizational performance by examining the relationships among CSR, corporate reputation, customer satisfaction, and organizational attractiveness from the perspectives of both customers as well as job seekers. Consistent with the European Commission's view, CSR is defined as having three components: CSR for employees, CSR for customers, and CSR for social public welfare. Data are collected through an online survey of a convenient sample of 500 individuals from different organizations in China. Results indicate that corporate reputation plays a mediating role in the relationship between CSR and customer satisfaction and that between CSR and organizational attractiveness. Further, the impact mechanisms of the three components of CSR are different. For CSR for employees, both cognitive and affective reputation work as mediators, with the former playing a bigger mediating role than the latter. For CSR for customers, only cognitive reputation works as a mediator, whereas for CSR for social public welfare, only affective reputation works as a mediator. This study's findings show that the abovementioned relationships are more complex than previous studies have revealed. These insights provide guidelines for firms to better adjust their CSR strategies to improve customer satisfaction and organizational attractiveness.
A multi-theoretical mixed-methods approach to investigating research engagement by university ELT staff

Although participation by EFL teachers in research activity is frequently advocated as desirable, involvement of this kind is often lacking in practice. The purpose of this study was to attempt to investigate possible causes of this situation. A review of the non-ELT literature on the subject showed that rates of participation in research activity by academics working in higher education institutions are thought to be affected primarily by a combination of three main factors, i.e., environmental variables, personal variables, and feedback processes. Because of their perceived relevance to exploring them, the Theory of Planned Behavior (TpB) and Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) were used as investigative frameworks for the study of such factors within the research site, a Mexican university setting. The study involved identification and comparison of a number of the perceptions and traits of a group of research active (RA) participants from a variety of non-ELT disciplines within the research setting with those of a number of nonresearch active (NRA) EFL teachers working in the Faculty of Modem Languages in the same research site. The overall research design was two-phase and mixed-methods in nature. In the first phase of the study, quantitative data were generated from both sets of participants by the use of a TpB-based questionnaire. The findings indicated that the two groups were differentiated primarily in terms of self-identity and perceived social factors. In the second main phase of the study, qualitative data were generated via life story interviews with a selection of the same participants, and analyzed from an SCT perspective. The principal finding was that, in contrast to the NRA subjects, RA participants as a group experienced a "'Matthew effect' of accumulated SCT factors", whereby earlier success in research engagement increased the potential for later success. The findings are seen to imply that attempting to increase research engagement by university ELT staff in settings such as the one studied should involve taking into account antecedent factors associated with beliefs affecting research behavior of the kind identified.
Functional distributional semantics: learning linguistically informed representations from a precisely annotated corpus

The aim of distributional semantics is to design computational techniques that can automatically learn the meanings of words from a body of text. As McNally (2017) and Lenci (2008, 2018) have argued, distributional representations can be used as surrogates for conceptual representations – but crucially, they can be calculated concretely. Used in this way, distributional data allows us to develop and test linguistic theories. The twin challenges are: how do we represent meaning, and how do we learn these representations? The current state of the art is to represent meanings as vectors – but vectors do not correspond to any traditional notion of meaning. In particular, there is no way to talk about truth, a crucial concept in logic and formal semantics. In this thesis, I develop a framework for distributional semantics which answers this challenge. The meaning of a word is not represented as a vector, but as a function, mapping entities (objects in the world) to probabilities of truth (the probability that the word is true of the entity). Such a function can be interpreted both in the machine learning sense of a classifier, and in the formal semantic sense of a truth-conditional function. This simultaneously allows both the use of machine learning techniques to exploit large datasets, and also the use of formal semantic techniques to manipulate the learnt representations. I define a probabilistic graphical model, which incorporates a probabilistic generalisation of model theory (allowing a strong connection with formal semantics), and which generates semantic dependency graphs (allowing it to be trained on a corpus). Empirically, I demonstrate the feasibility of this approach by training a model on WikiWoods, a parsed version of the English Wikipedia, and evaluating it on three tasks. The results indicate that the model can learn information not captured by vector space models. Theoretically, I demonstrate the expressiveness of this approach, by showing how it can naturally model semantic composition, context dependence, and generalised quantifiers, with Bayesian inference playing a crucial role. The ability to model these phenomena is a clear advantage over other approaches to distributional semantics.

Brain Structure Alterations in Poly-Drug Use: Reduced Cortical Thickness and White Matter Impairments in Regions Associated With Affective, Cognitive, and Motor Functions

Substance use disorders (SUDs) are defined by obsessive and uncontrolled consumption, which is related to neurobiological changes. Based on previous work, this study investigated potential alterations in brain structure in poly-drug use disordered (PUD) patients in comparison to controls from the normal population. This study involved a sample of 153 right-handed men aged between 18 and 41 years, comprising a clinical group of 78 PUD and a group of 75 healthy controls. Group differences in gray matter (GM) and white matter (WM), as well as cortical thickness (CT), were investigated by means of diffusion tensor imaging using automated fiber quantification (AFQ) and voxel-based morphometry. We observed significant WM impairments in PUD, especially in the bilateral corticospinal tracts and the inferior longitudinal fasciculi. Furthermore, we found reduced CT in the PUD group especially in the left insular and left lateral orbitofrontal cortex. There were no group differences in GM. In addition, PUD exhibited a higher amount of psychiatric symptoms (Brief Symptom Inventory) and impairments in cognitive functions (Wonderlic Personnel Test). In line with previous research, this study revealed substantial impairments in brain structure in the PUD group in areas linked with affective, cognitive, and motor functions. We therefore hypothesize a neurologically informed treatment approach for SUD. Future studies should consequently explore a potential positive neuroplasticity in relation to a better therapeutic outcome.
