Nightlife and COVID Vaccinations
Authors: Contino Antonina , Codarin Marco , Di Blas Lisa
Published: December 2022

In this study, we described rates of COVID vaccination, attitudes towards COVID prevention behaviours, and perceived risk in relation to different areas of personal well-being and substance use during the pandemic, in a sample of 16- to 25-year-olds (N = 411). The participants completed a short self-report questionnaire, while they were spending their 2021 summer nightlife in a crowded city venue. Results showed that 64% of respondents reported being vaccinated. Among the unvaccinated participants, those who were unwilling to be vaccinated agreed less with prevention rules and felt more at risk for drug use and for chances of getting or maintaining a job, when compared to both vaccinated peers and to peers who were unvaccinated but positively intentioned to vaccinate. Overall, the present findings confirm that youth felt at risk for their well-being during the pandemic and further reveal that young people who are reluctant to vaccinate deserve more attention. Vaccination campaigns need to be strengthened in social contexts, where chances of getting a job or keeping it are lower, while the risk of drug use is higher.
A Mixed-Method Study on Measuring Epistemic Emotions as a Trait
Authors: Balaž Barbara , Pavlin-Bernardić Nina
Published: December 2022

Epistemic emotions are typically assessed as a momentary state related to a specific task, while in this study, the aim was to develop a new trait-oriented instruction in the Epistemically-Related Emotion Scales in the context of physics. The Scale measures seven well-established epistemic emotions in academic context, i.e., surprise, curiosity, enjoyment, confusion, anxiety, frustration and boredom. We conducted two studies (i.e., qualitative and quantitative) with 8th-grade students from elementary schools utilising a mixed-method approach. Qualitative analysis indicated a wide range of learning situations in physics in which students typically experience epistemic emotions. Based on those findings, we implemented newly developed trait-oriented instruction of the Scale in the quantitative study. While examining the structural validity of the Scale, the results of confirmatory factor analysis showed unexpected results (i.e., the three negative activating epistemic emotions formed one instead of three separate latent factors). Besides this, the Scale had good criterion validity. The results pointed to the important implications for the application of the Scale. Although the Scale showed adequate psychometric properties for assessing epistemic emotions in a trait-oriented approach, the unexpected factorial structure of the Scale should be tested in further research to examine if the reason was the adolescent age of the participants or the results would be the same with students of different age. This study contributed to the existing literature and empirical data about students’ academic emotions by broadening the research on the important, and highly unexplored group of emotions, i.e., the epistemic emotions in a trait-oriented approach.

Authors: Deng Yichen , Jin Yezhuang , Yang Yao , Dong Bocheng , Li Zelin , Li Hui
Published: December 2022

Abstract: This study performs both theoretical and experimental studies on the vibration resistance of composite plates with damping coating subjected to impulse excitation load. A dynamic model is first proposed and the key differential equations are derived to solve the natural frequencies, time-domain vibration response, and dynamic stiffness at any vibration response point regarding the excitation point of such a coated structure. Then, a dynamic experiment system of two plate specimens with and without DC knocked by a hammer excitation is set up. The measured data indicates that the proposed dynamic model is trustworthy for predicting natural frequencies and dynamic stiffness results. Furthermore, based on the calculated dynamic stiffness data associated with the first four modes, the anti-vibration contribution of DC is quantitatively evaluated. It can be found that the coating can indeed improve the vibration resistance of the structure by up to 74.7%. In addition, the vibration suppression effect of DC is found to be closely related to the mode order of such a structure as well as the selected boundary condition.

Residents are people who are in an area and are controlled by applicable rules and interact with each other Residents are people who are in an area and are bound by applicable rules and interact with each other continuously or continuously. If population growth increases, this will cause many problems, including: poverty levels, unemployment, school dropout rates and increasing crime rates in each region. In anticipating the problem of increasing the population of Aceh Province, information about the population is needed. Therefore, this study will discuss several applications of mathematical methods in estimating the population of Aceh Province in the coming year using the Euler method and the Runge Kutta method of order 4. The results of the estimation of the population of Aceh Province using the Runge Kutta method are 5.030.503 inhabitants in 2021, 5.076.307 in 2022 and 5.122.486 in 2023 The estimation results using the Euler method are 5.026.162 in 2021, 5.071.745 in 2022 and 5.117.700 in 2022. The conclusion in this study is that estimation using the Runge Kutta method is a method that is better applied than the method Euler on the problem of estimating the population of Aceh Province. This is because the error value of the Runge Kutta method is smaller than the Euler method with an error value of about 0.04%.

Gradska glazba Senj 2022. godine obilježava 180. godišnjicu postojanja, a možemo je svrstati među najstarija glazbena društva na hrvatskom povijesnom prostoru.Tijekom svojeg dugog postojanja Gradska glazba Senj aktivno je sudjelovala u kulturnoumjetničkom životu grada Senja – na svim svečanostima, zabavama i umjetničkim priredbama u Senju, ali i okolici. Ona je preživjela pet velikih promjena državnih uređenja (Habsburška Monarhija, Kraljevina Srba, Hrvata i Slovenaca, Nezavisna Država Hrvatska, Socijalistička Federativna Republika Jugoslavija, Republika Hrvatska) te različite regionalne i lokalne krize, a danas se suočava s novim modernim izazovima koji prijete njezinom postojanju i aktivnom djelovanju u gradskoj zajednici. Kvantitativnom analizom rad određuje kretanje broja glazbenika tijekom djelovanja Gradske glazbe Senj, a SWOT analizom načine na koje se ona bori s modernim izazovima. Ona tako ima snagu u instrumentima, opremi, notnim aranžmanima, svojoj tradiciji, povijesti djelovanja i samoj motivaciji njezinih članova, ali i slabosti – nedostatak glazbenika i neadekvatnost prostora u kojem se ansambl trenutačno nalazi. Prijetnje poput financijskih izazova i pandemije uzrokovane koronavirusom onemogućile su aktivno djelovanje gradske glazbe u proteklih nekoliko godina, ali nisu potpuno ugasile glazbeno društvo. Na kraju, Gradska glazba Senj ima puno prilika pomoću kojih bi mogla poboljšati svoje djelovanje, a tako i smanjiti negativni utjecaj modernih izazova na rad – od povećanja suradnje s drugim sličnim glazbenim društvima i osnovnom glazbenom školom u Senju, potom popularizacije gradske glazbe pomoću digitalnih medija pa sve do preseljenja ansambla u nove prostorije.

Numerical analysis of self-driven temperature-sensitive magnetic fluid heat flow around two side-by-side heating cylinders under a solenoidal magnetic field
Authors: Rong Zhongwu , Iwamoto Yuhiro , Ido Yasushi
Published: December 2022

A temperature-sensitive magnetic fluid (TSMF) is a functional fluid that enables heat transfer due to the temperature difference and magnetic field. Using this property, we can increase the driving force while promoting heat transfer by increasing the heat transfer area, in the same manner as a heat sink. However, when multiple cylinders are juxtaposed, the interference between the cylinders will greatly affect the heat transfer. In the present study, we used the hybrid lattice Boltzmann method to investigate the flow and heat transfer characteristics of a TSMF around two side-by-side heating circular cylinders under a solenoidal magnetic field. As the magnetic field increases, the heat transfer effect increases. Moreover, when the distance between the cylinders is close enough, the heat flow becomes unstable. Under the same magnetic field conditions, the unstable flow can promote heat transfer.

Published: December 2022

BACKGROUND: Supported employment has long been recognized as one of the most effective services for individuals with the most significant disabilities in achieving competitive integrated employment (CIE) outcomes. OBJECTIVE: This study examined the effect of supported employment interventions on the employment outcomes of transition-age youth and young adults with intellectual disabilities served by state vocational rehabilitation agencies using a propensity score matching (PSM) approach. METHODS: We conducted a non-experimental causal comparative study with PSM to create a treatment group (n = 2162) and a comparison group (n = 2191) using the Rehabilitation Services Administration Case Service Report database (Program Year 2018). Chi-square test and t-test were used to analyze the differences between the treatment and control groups on employment outcomes, hourly wage and hours worked per week. RESULTS: Results demonstrated that transition-age youth and young adults with intellectual disabilities who received supported employment were more likely to achieve CIE, earn higher wages, and work longer hours weekly than the control group. CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that supported employment is an effective service for enhancing the vocational rehabilitation outcomes of transition-age youth and young adults with intellectual disabilities and provides valuable information for policy makers, health care providers, rehabilitation counselors, and educators.
Elective intubation for laser retinopexy treatment of severe ROP is not associated with increased morbidity or length of stay
Authors: Angert R.M. , Jones-Bamman C. , Moon J.-Y. , Mian U.K.
Published: December 2022

BACKGROUND: Laser retinopexy is the current standard treatment for babies with type I retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). No guidelines exist for respiratory management during this procedure. Although neonatologists prefer to avoid intubation to prevent delays in extubation, feeding and discharge, ophthalmologists often request intubation, because sedation alone may lead to respiratory collapse. Little evidence is available regarding which treatment provides the most benefit to vulnerable infants. OBJECTIVE: This study investigated relevant associations or underlying conditions that may help guide decision-making in respiratory management during laser retinopexy. METHODS: A retrospective chart review was performed to analyze data from babies who underwent retinopexy from 2006 to 2011 at the Montefiore Medical Center. The main outcome measures included respiratory support before, during and after laser therapy; time from treatment to extubation; and time from treatment to discharge. RESULTS: The main outcomes were analyzed in four groups: never intubated (n = 27), emergently intubated (n = 7), already intubated (n = 8) and electively intubated (n = 28). No significant differences were observed in the number of pre-operative apneic/bradycardic events, postoperative time to extubation, time to discharge and delays in feeding among groups. CONCLUSIONS: No specific comorbid conditions were found to predict a need for intubation. Elective intubation did not cause delays in feedings, extubation or discharge. A selective approach to respiratory support would result in 20% of initially non-intubated patients requiring emergent intubation.
Clinical significance of correlation between persistent pulmonary hypertension and 8-hydroxy-2-desoxyguanosine level in premature newborns
Authors: Klymenko T.M. , Kononovych M.I.
Published: December 2022

BACKGROUND: Persistent pulmonary hypertension is a problem that leads to high morbidity and mortality in preterm infants. In clinical studies, oxidative stress (OS) contributes to the development of pulmonary hypertension (PH). The most specific biomarker of OS in preterm infants is urinary 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). The aim of the study was to determine the clinical correlation between the value of 8-OHdG and the level of a mean pressure in the pulmonary artery (mPAP) in premature infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) and asphyxia in the early neonatal period. METHODS: Determination of the urinary 8-OHdG value and PH in 96 premature infants born at gestational age of 26–32 weeks on the 1st and the 3rd–5th days of life in two groups: group I –52 children with respiratory distress syndrome; II –44 children with RDS associated with perinatal asphyxia. RESULTS: The 2nd group of children had higher average mPAP level, mmHg, both in the 1st and in the 3rd–5th day of life compared with the 1st group. The value of the urinary 8-OHdG correlated with the manifestation of PH that required prolonged respiratory support in group II. CONCLUSION: Perinatal asphyxia in preterm infants with RDS on the 1st day of life complicates the course of PH, as indicated by a higher level of the urinary 8-OHdG and correlated to mPAP. Gender characteristics of the dynamics of 8-OHdG levels in children with perinatal pathology reveal reduced adaptability and reactivity of boys to OS at birth.

Published: December 2022

BACKGROUND: Job-related psychosocial factors have a substantial effect on the occurrence of adverse events among healthcare professionals. OBJECTIVE: An analytical and descriptive survey was conducted to evaluate the relationship between the occurrence of patient safety incidents and psychological factors. METHODS: The study sample consisted of 177 nurses who were asked about patient safety events over six months. Repetitive patient safety incidents were selected by examining medical records and interviewing specialists. Also, psychological factors were assessed using job content questionnaire (JCQ). RESULTS: Repetitive patient safety incidents were involved medication administration error, pressure ulcer and skin-muscular injuries, patient falls, inability to CPR patients, blood transfusion reactions, and death due to human error. The findings showed that 92 participants (52%) had at least one case of patient safety incident. Among patient safety incidents, medication administration error and death due to human error had the highest and lowest repletion, respectively. Nurses training, job insecurity and peer support were significant predictors of different aspects of patient safety (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Proper collaboration between new and experienced nurses can have a significant impact to reduce patient safety incidents. In addition, nursing training can be a good way to understand risk points in medical errors.

OBJECTIVE: The study aims to determine the overall prevalence rate of WRMSD among dentists, physiotherapists, and surgeons and also identify the commonly affected regions of the body about specific health care professions among each of the three professions, as recorded by the cross-sectional studies performed in various countries and regions of the world. METHODS: A systematic search strategy was framed following the PRISMA guidelines based on the present inclusion and exclusion criteria. A critical search of articles was conducted during June 2020 in CINAHL (DOAJ), PubMed, Google Scholar Scopus, PEDro databases and SAGE journals. RESULTS: Out of the 42 articles that met the eligibility criteria, there were 39 cross-sectional studies, 2 pilot cross-sectional surveys and 1 prospective cohort study with one-year follow-up. All studies included in this review used various survey tools for recording the demographic details and measuring the prevalence of WRMSDs and other outcome factors. CONCLUSION: We conclude that all three health care professionals (dentists, physiotherapists and surgeons) are highly prone to develop WRMSDs with surgeons and dentists being more vulnerable when compared to physiotherapists. The lower back and neck are identified as the two most commonly affected regions among all three professionals.

Authors: Gross Larry
Published: December 2022

Before arriving in the field of communication, Larry Gross was a psychology student at Brandeis University; Creativity: Process and Personality was Gross’s undergraduate thesis at Brandeis, completed in 1964. This mediastudies.press edition is the initial publication of that undergraduate thesis, with a new preface by Gross himself. Creativity: Process and Personality finds Gross exploring the nature of creativity by interviewing some of the era’s most noteworthy experts in psychology, including Herbert Simon, Milton Rokeach, Abraham Maslow, David McClelland, Jerome Bruner, and B. F. Skinner. The result of Gross’s interviews is a nuanced and multi-perspectival set of interlocking chapters, each of which probes the psychological, social, and cultural aspects of creativity. Creativity: Process and Personality remains a provocative consideration of how creativity takes form, while also operating as a revealing snapshot of mid-twentieth century psychological thought.
Can we use a biomarker detection algorithm to measure the effectiveness of 14-channel neurofeedback in dyslexia?
Authors: Eroglu Gunet , Abou Raja
Published: December 2022

The most common neurological diversity that children experience is dyslexia and it manifests itself in reduced reading ability. There is a genetic predisposition for dyslexia, and more recent theories explain it as a delay in left hemispheric lateralization that reduces effective reading and writing. A software for smartphones called Auto Train Brain helps children with dyslexia to improve their reading comprehension and reading speed. Measuring the efficacy of the mobile app training was done manually with psychometric tests beforehand and we use a biomarker detection software to measure the efficacy of the neurofeedback. Machine learning (ML) techniques have recently been used to classify children with dyslexia and typically developing children (TDC). The data consists of 100 sessions of 2-minute resting-state eyes-open 14-channel Quantitative Electroencephalography (QEEG) data from 100 children with dyslexia and 100 TDC. We used the dyslexia biomarker detection software to assess the effectiveness of the 14-channel neurofeedback that was applied with Auto Train Brain. The results have shown that 30% of the sessions of children with dyslexia were classified as electrophysiologically normal, and 61% of the children with dyslexia were classified as electrophysiologically normal for at least 1 session after the 20th session of neurofeedback.
