Article: Spain Fails to Set Aside Registration of intra-EU ECT ICSID Award in the English Commercial Court
Authors: Dyke Joseph
Published: July 2024

In Infrastructure Services Luxembourg and another v. Kingdom of Spain [2023] EWHC 1226 (Comm), the English Commercial Court handed down a significant judgment in high profile proceedings seeking the enforcement of an ICSID award issued in a renewable energy sector dispute pursuant to the Energy Charter Treaty (ECT). The same parties have been engaged in multiple proceedings around the world, including in Australia, where the High Court recently rendered an important decision with regard to the waiver of a state’s enforcement immunity. The English Commercial Court provides a detailed assessment (and rejection) of Spain’s ‘intra-EU’ objection to the viability of investment treaty arbitration of its disputes with investors domiciled in EU Member States. The Infrastructure judgment has been heralded as a statement of the English courts’ readiness to straightforwardly enforce intra-EU awards in circumstances when enforcement through the courts of EU Member States may no longer be such an attractive prospect for intra- EU award creditors.

This research investigates the monitoring and management of an intravenous drip infusion system using the Internet of Things (IoT) and non- contact liquid level sensors, an Arduino circuit board, a GSM interface, and a cloud storage facility. The three sensors in the system are able to detect the presence of fluid without coming into contact with it. They can also send the data they collect to the cloud facility, where it can be used to access drip conditions and monitor fluid levels as well as control infusion flow when needed. This system can be considered an improvement over several systems on the market that are similarly intended to use optical sensors, TDR (Time domain reflectometry), and other types of sensors to monitor the IV drip flow. While it is true that each type of sensor has a combination of benefits and drawbacks, none of the other systems on the market can further regulate the drip flow like this one does. Since the sensors we've employed don't respond to fluids, the patients don't suffer any damage at all. This is now a crucial necessity in the biomedical industry since human reliance on IV drip infusions has led to a number of incidents, the most serious of which involved the patient suffering severe injuries from back blood flow in the nozzle. This system is made to guarantee that all safety precautions are taken and that the patient and attendant are in the best possible circumstances in order to minimize such incidents, accurately monitor and control fluid flow from drip to patients' veins, and prevent back blood flow. Keywords: Internet of Things, Intravenous drip infusion, Non‐contact Liquid Level Sensor, Thing speak, Esp-32, GSM.

Objetivo. Evaluar la frecuencia y los factores asociados con la mortalidad a corto plazo de personas que viven en residencias tras ingreso en urgencias. Método. Análisis retrospectivo multicéntrico de una muestra aleatoria de admisiones de personas $ 65 años que viven en residencias en cinco servicios de urgencias de Cataluña, a lo largo de 2017. Se analizaron características sociodemográficas, el estado funcional y cognitivo previo, multimorbilidad, nivel de triaje de las urgencias, duración de la estancia en urgencias, hospitalización y mortalidad a corto plazo (en urgencias o en los 30 días posteriores al alta). Se utilizó un análisis de regresión multivariante para investigar los factores asociados con la mortalidad a corto plazo. Resultados. Se analizaron 2.444 admisiones en urgencias, con una edad media de 85,9 (DE 7,1) años, 67,7% mujeres. La mortalidad a corto plazo (15,5%) se asoció con una edad > 90 años (OR 1,50; IC 95%: 1,5-1,95), un índice de Charlson > 2 (OR 1,47; IC 95%: 1,14-1,90), y un grado de dependencia moderado (OR 1,50; IC 95%: 1,03-2,20) y grave (OR 2,56; IC 95%: 1,84-3,55). También se asoció con un mayor nivel de triaje de la urgencia, duración de la estancia en urgencias e ingreso en planta de hospitalización. Conclusiones. Los ancianos residentes con las características descritas podrían beneficiarse especialmente de intervenciones dirigidas a la prevención de traslados potencialmente innecesarios a urgencias y a la implementación de una atención integral geriátrica dentro de los servicios de urgencias, a fin de garantizar una buena calidad de los cuidados en fases finales de la vida.

El objetivo del presente estudio es conocer los cambios ocurridos en la migración mexicana hacia Estados Unidos antes, durante y después de la COVID-19. El periodo de antes abarca de 2017 a 2019, el de durante corresponde a la etapa de confinamiento en 2020 y el de después se refiere al momento en que la vida cotidiana comenzó a normalizarse en 2021. En su realización se utilizaron diversas fuentes de información, tanto del país de origen como del país de destino. Entre los principales hallazgos de la investigación se destaca que la migración desde México mostraba una tendencia de recuperación previa a la contingencia y que no se detuvo a pesar de las restricciones migratorias durante el confinamiento de 2020. Además, empezó a hacerse evidente la importancia de la migración documentada de trabajadores agrícolas. En 2021, los diversos flujos migratorios de mexicanos hacia el norte continuaron aumentando, y del total de detenidos por la Patrulla Fronteriza, tres de cada cuatro no fueron deportados. Estamos presenciando el inicio de una nueva etapa migratoria que podría denominarse sistema migratorio mixto.

Objective: The objective was to identify the effects of low-power laser on the healing of chronic wounds. Method: This is an integrative literature review, carried out in the Medline / Pubmed, Cochrane Library and Virtual Health Library (VHL) databases, limited to Randomized Clinical Trials, in which 68 articles were identified, of which 19 were pre-selected and seven were included in the final sample, after checking the eligibility criteria. Results: Most articles (n = 05) included patients with injuries resulting from diabetes mellitus located in the regions of the feet and two studies addressed venous ulcers. Most of the selected studies showed that the use of low-level laser therapy was able to accelerate the tissue repair process, with a significant reduction in the wound area, showing effectiveness in promoting healing, when compared to the treatments presented in the different studies. The significant reduction in pain in the laser-treated group was also an important effect reported in some studies. The wavelength in nanometers (nm) used for laser application varied from 632.8 to 830 nm and the doses in joules (J) were from 3 to 7J / cm2. The duration of laser therapy treatment averaged 4 weeks. Conclusion: The low-power laser can be an alternative therapy in the treatment of chronic wounds in clinical practice to optimize and enhance the healing process.

O estudo da Medicina Baseada em Evidências - MBE teve início em 1972 com a publicação do livro Eficácia e Eficiência: Reflexões Ocasionais sobre Serviços de Saúde. Em 1992, o grupo de trabalho sobre medicina baseada em evidências propôs a: Medicina Veterinária Baseada em Evidencias - MVBE como um novo paradigma emergente da prática médica, afastando-se da medicina baseada apenas na observação e na experiência. MVBE é aplicação da MBE na área veterinária. Na prática clínica da profissão, o veterinário muitas vezes toma decisão variando desde a utilização ou não de uma intervenção até o manejo geral das condições clínicas. Este trabalho propõe neste sentido uma revisão integrativa da literatura para fazer apresentar o tema: Qualidade de Vida Associada a Medicina Veterinária Baseada em Evidências – MVBE e suas contextualizações na formação acadêmica de médicos veterinários. O primeiro uso do registrado na plataforma PubMed, foi em novembro de 2000, porém um artigo com esse mesmo termo apareceu no Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, em junho de 2000. No Brasil, praticamente não existem estudos que utilizem MVBE, na literatura brasileira atualmente contém apenas um resumo de simpósio sobre a aplicação do MVBE na área de obstetrícia. Conclui-se que na necessidade de desenvolver habilidades durante todo o período acadêmico, para que o futuro profissional, por meio da prática contínua, seja formado não baseando suas decisões apenas na experiência e na especulação, mas creditando-lhes evidências conhecimento científico e, assim, aumentar o nível dos serviços veterinários oferecendo qualidade de vida, eficácia e segurança aos tutores e pacientes.

Published: July 2024

Tradicionalmente, sistemas fotovoltaicos (PV) e de energia eólica (WT) são instalados separadamente para gerar eletricidade. No entanto, sistemas híbridos (HS) têm sido cada vez mais implementados para mitigar a natureza intermitente dos recursos renováveis. Além disso, o Sistema de Armazenamento de Energia com Bateria (BESS) tem sido associado aos sistemas PV/WT para melhorar a integração dos recursos energéticos. O principal objetivo deste artigo é avaliar os impactos de uma usina híbrida PV-WT-BESS, considerando a hibridização de um parque eólico em Casa Nova, Bahia. Os resultados mostraram que a inserção do HS aumentou a capacidade de controle reativo do parque eólico, e não causou violações no perfil de tensão e no fator de potência. Além disso, não houve aumento nas perdas de potência ativa no parque eólico.

Introdução: As doenças cardiovasculares são uma das principais causas de morte global, resultantes de fatores de risco como dislipidemia e hipertensão arterial, que promovem inflamação e estresse oxidativo nos vasos sanguíneos. Biomarcadores, como IL-6, TNF-α e PCR, têm sido destacados na identificação precoce dessas condições, aumentando o risco cardiovascular. O estudo proposto visa examinar os biomarcadores cardíacos mais eficazes e disponíveis para auxiliar no diagnóstico das doenças cardíacas, considerando especificidade, sensibilidade e desempenho padrão. Metodologia:  A pesquisa é uma revisão sistemática sobre o papel dos biomarcadores nas doenças cardiovasculares. Ela busca definir esses biomarcadores, discutir sua aplicação específica nas condições cardíacas e orientar sobre a interpretação dos resultados. A busca por artigos será realizada em bases de dados específicas, utilizando descritores relacionados. Os critérios de inclusão e exclusão foram estabelecidos para garantir a relevância e a consistência dos estudos selecionados. O objetivo é fornecer uma análise abrangente e atualizada sobre o assunto, contribuindo para o avanço do conhecimento e da prática clínica na área cardiovascular. Resultados:  Os biomarcadores são ferramentas cruciais para diagnosticar e monitorar uma variedade de condições médicas, incluindo eventos cardiovasculares agudos, instabilidade de placa ateromatosa, disfunção cardíaca, isquemia e remodelamento cardíaco. Alguns dos principais biomarcadores discutidos incluem a mioglobina, a CK-MB, as troponinas cardíacas, a RNL, aIL-6, a mieloperoxidase, TNF-α, as moléculas de adesão, o D-dímero, o peptídeo natriurético tipo B, o CTGF e os ácidos graxos livres. Cada biomarcador tem sua especificidade e sensibilidade em relação a diferentes condições clínicas, e sua detecção pode ajudar na triagem, diagnóstico precoce e prognóstico de pacientes com doenças cardiovasculares. Conclusão: A doença cardíaca isquêmica é uma das principais causas de morte em todo o mundo, e os biomarcadores desempenham um papel crucial no seu diagnóstico e prognóstico. As troponinas cardíacas são consideradas o padrão-ouro para o diagnóstico de infarto agudo do miocárdio, especialmente com os avanços nos métodos de medição ultrassensíveis. Além das troponinas, outros biomarcadores como GDF-15, miRNA, BNP, D-Dímero e NLR também têm demonstrado importância na estratificação de risco e prognóstico em pacientes com doenças cardiovasculares.
Wartość długoterminowa versus wartość rynkowa jako podstawa zabezpieczenia wierzytelności w sektorze bankowym
Authors: Kucharska-Stasiak Ewa
Published: July 2024

Celem artykułu jest: (1) próba oceny wartości rynkowej i wartości bankowo-hipotecznej na potrzeby zabezpieczenia wierzytelności, (2) upowszechnienie wyników rozważań teoretycznych i empirycznych nad możliwością stosowania innych sposobów wyrażania wartości długoterminowej, (3) wskazanie wartości długoterminowych, które nie działają procyklicznie, ale wysyłają sygnały ostrzegawcze, i które powinny zachęcić do ograniczenia akcji kredytowej, gdy ceny na rynkach są zawyżone, oraz do jej wzmożenia, gdy są zaniżone. W artykule testowano następujące hipotezy badawcze: H1: wartość rynkowa nieruchomości nie powinna stanowić samodzielnej podstawy zabezpieczenia wierzytelności kredytodawcy, lecz powinna pełnić funkcję kontrolną w ocenie aktywności rynku; H2: podstawą zabezpieczenia i ustalania wskaźnika LTV powinna być wartość długoterminowa; H3: przyjęcie wspólnej koncepcji wartości długoterminowej w Europie nie musi oznaczać przyjęcia jednej metodyki jej określania, która sprawdzi się we wszystkich krajach. Artykuł ma charakter przeglądowy
Transparency and disclosure (TD) and valuation of Indian banks
Authors: Rastogi Shailesh , Agarwal Bhakti
Published: July 2024

The study’s main goal is to determine how TD affects bank valuation while operating performance measures are held constant. The study uses panel data regression as its approach. Panel data from 34 banks are collected for six years (2016–2021). The econometric model is specified to determine the link of TD with the valuation of the banks. The other determinants of the value in the banks are controlled while estimating the model. Interestingly, the results endorse the apprehension raised in the study that TD’s influence on the bank’s valuation is significant despite controlling the operating performance. Such results are unique as it is not observed in any other study which discusses the impact of TD on the valuation of the banks. The main implication and recommendation of the study are: (1) the managers should exercise proper disclosures; (2) there should be regulation on both types of disclosures (mandatory and voluntary disclosures); and (3) provisions of pecuniary punitive action should be devised in case of digression from the regulation on disclosures as the gullible small investors are in the fray and may get misguided due to possible misleading disclosures by the banks.
Non-sanction sources of an effective fiscal system interms of tax compliance: tax morale and mentality, taxjustice, trust in the tax apparatus and its activities
Authors: Obłąkowska Katarzyna Agnieszka
Published: July 2024

The article presents the results of the author’s empirical social research on non-sanction sources of tax complianceof a natural person (an individual taxpayer). This concept is understood as conscious and intentional compliancewith tax law and meeting the requirements of tax law. The fundamental assumption is the discovery,proven by behavioral economics, that in a tax state under democratic conditions, people pay taxes not only becauseof state compulsion. A fiscal system that is effective in terms of tax compliance is a system in which as manytaxpayers as possible consciously and intentionally comply with tax law and meet the requirements of tax law.The article presents the level of tax compliance among adult Poles as well as the level of forced and voluntarycompliance determined in our own empirical research. Then, the following non-sanction determinants of a citizen’swillingness to make tax payments were presented: tax morale, lack of experience of unintentional tax error, attitudetowards tax compliance, religiosity, tax mentality, perception of the structure of taxes as fair, perception of thefunctioning of the tax apparatus for the common good, trust in the tax apparatus.

Published: July 2024

A acreditação hospitalar apresenta-se como uma estratégia para avaliar segurança assistencial, padronização das técnicas e conformidades nos processos de trabalho. Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo geral analisar os efeitos da mudança da acreditação ONA para JCI, na visão dos gestores de um hospital privado de grande porte de Belo Horizonte. Utilizou-se o método do estudo de caso. Os participantes da pesquisa foram doze gestores de um hospital privado de grande porte localizado em Belo Horizonte. A técnica empregada na coleta de dados foi a entrevista semiestruturada. Os dados coletados foram analisados por meio da análise do conteúdo. A principal diferença no processo de acreditação é que a ONA promoveu principalmente uma definição dos processos e sua documentação, enquanto a JCI trouxe mudanças na estrutura física do hospital para atender os requisitos relacionados à segurança nas instalações e no aprimoramento dos processos internos, bem como na gestão de pessoas. Um ponto em comum foi a definição de um programa de capacitação que auxiliou os gestores na condução do processo de acreditação de cada norma. Concluiu-se que JCI trouxe mais benefícios, porque aproximou a equipe dos gestores, deu atenção maior à segurança dos pacientes e familiares e às relações intersetoriais.
Personal Practice as an Element of Emancipatory Adult Education
Authors: Holtslander Catherine
Published: July 2024

"Personal practice" is suggested for adult educators involved in emancipatory
adult education. The concept is based upon Michael Polanyi's personal knowledge.
Personal practice is based on educators' and learners' social and moral
relationships with each other. It is contrasted with individualistic adult education
that is based upon principles of technical rationalism—objectivity and
detachment.

Résumé

La «pratique personnelle» est recommandée aux andragogues qui exercent la
pédagogic de la libération. Ce concept puise son origine dans les écrits de
Michael Polanyi sur le savoir personnel. La pratique personnelle définit la
relation sociale et morale entre éducateur et apprenant. On peut lui opposer la
notion d'éducation «individualisante» inspirée, de principes rationalistes tels
que l'objectivité et le désengagement.
Spirituality in the Workplace: The New Frontier of HRD
Authors: Fenwick Tara , Lange Elizabeth
Published: July 2024

In this critical essay we argue that recent human resource development
(HRD) initiatives in building learning communities and appropriating
employees' holistic development are exploiting spiritual needs and
offering promises traditionally fulfilled through spiritual search and
worship. We trace HRD's expanding curriculum into areas of
spirituality and critically analyse examples of spirituality-based HRD
programs, showing how such programs embed contradictions, are
pervaded by a fundamentalist zeal, invade individuals' privacy, demand
surrender while resisting critical discernment, appropriate selected
promises of spirituality, and meld whole persons to the global
marketplace. Finally, we explore how spirituality might be integrated
with work and learning through alternative approaches that are more
ethical, ecumenical, ecological, and inclusive.

Résumé

Certaines initiatives récentes en développement des ressources
humaines (DRH), notamment l'établissement de «communautés
d'apprentissage» et l'appropriation du développement holistique des
individus, exploitent en réalité les aspirations spirituelles des employés
en leur offrant des assurances qui relèvent traditionnellement du
domaine de l'introspection et du recueillement. Ainsi, on retracera les
incursions du DRH dans le domaine spirituel en faisant l'analyse
critique de certains programmes. On montrera comment ces
programmes se nourrissent de contradictions, se complaisent dans la
ferveur intégriste, méprisent l'intimité, exigent le renoncement à la
pensée critique, exploitent l'expectative spirituelle, et s'efforcent
d'assujettir l'identité personnelle à la globalité du marché. Enfin, on
explorera des moyens d'intégration spirituelle fondés sur les valeurs de
l'éthique, de l'aecuménisme, de l'écologie et de l'inclusion.

Apresentaremos os resultados de uma pesquisa que buscou a (i) compreensão das dificuldades que crianças com Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA) possuem acerca do Ensino das Ciências Ambientais e, junto disso, (ii) almejou evidenciar possibilidades para promover a inclusão ambiental em meio a processos de ensino e de aprendizagem vinculados à Educação Infantil destes educandos. O TEA se caracteriza por distúrbios neurológicos em que o sujeito resguarda dificuldades de comunicação, interação social e alterações sensoriais. A metodologia adotada – atividades acadêmicas antecedentes à confecção de nosso produto educacional – ligaram-se a (i) pesquisas bibliográficas e a (ii) entrevistas semiestruturadas com as quais levantamos informações junto aos professores que trabalham com crianças autistas. Este trabalho se justifica pelo auxílio a educadores interessados em incluir ambientalmente alunos autistas; sendo assim, o público atendido por ele foi composto de: (a) professores de crianças com TEA e (b) crianças autistas ensinadas por eles. Verificamos que os docentes detêm algumas imprecisões acerca do que é o TEA e das implicações dela no processo de ensino e de aprendizagem de crianças autistas, especialmente no que tange as Ciências Ambientais. Por conta disso, desenvolvemos um “folder” instrucional capaz de auxiliá-los nesse processo.

Após a edição da Lei 13.431/2017, os educadores têm um papel crucial em situações envolvendo violência contra crianças ou adolescentes em fases processuais. A lei busca resguardar os menores de sofrerem violência psicológica ou revitimização, enfatizando a responsabilização do agressor e coordenando o processo de atendimento às vítimas entre as instituições de proteção e o sistema judiciário. No entanto, essa abordagem parece representar uma 'juridicialização' do atendimento, onde os educadores ganham maior protagonismo na fase processual, mas enfrentam desafios éticos e morais na condução das escutas e depoimentos das crianças e adolescentes. Além disso, as consequências da violência psicológica intrafamiliar podem se manifestar na escola, afetando o desempenho acadêmico e o bem-estar emocional dos alunos. Nesse contexto, iniciativas como o aplicativo "Aprender a Proteger", lançado pelo estado de Alagoas, ganham relevância ao fornecer orientações e recursos para os educadores combaterem a violência infantil. Essa ferramenta pode capacitar os educadores a identificar sinais de abuso, fornecer apoio adequado aos alunos e colaborar com as autoridades competentes para proteger as vítimas.

This qualitative study investigated assessment practices in English language classrooms in six government secondary schools in Tanga City, Tanzania. Employing a case study design, the study involved 12 English language teachers and Form Three students. Specifically, the study aimed to identify assessment strategies employed by English language teachers, delineate the timing of assessments during instructional sessions and ascertain the language skills evaluated during the instructional process. The study findings revealed that teachers employ both oral and written assessment strategies. The finding also showed that assessment occurs systematically throughout all stages of lesson development. However, while writing skills and grammar received considerable assessment attention, speaking skills appeared to be relatively neglected. The study concludes by discussing its implications and highlighting a critical necessity for teacher training to enhance assessment literacy, particularly in assessing oral skills during instructional sessions.

This qualitative study assessed the alignment of technical education curricula with current industrial skill demands in Tanzania. Data were collected through documentary review and interviews with 34 purposively selected technical graduates. Thematic analysis was employed to analyse the data. The findings revealed persistent reliance on outdated content delivered predominantly through lecturing methods within certain parts of the curriculum. The study also identified obsolete teaching and learning facilities, such as equipment and machines. Furthermore, it highlighted discrepancies between the stated learning outcomes of the curriculum and NACTVET’s CBET standards. These findings suggest a misalignment between the curriculum and industry requirements, potentially impacting graduates’ preparedness for the workforce. Consequently, the study recommends a comprehensive curriculum review informed by a rigorous labour market analysis. To facilitate this process, NACTVET could offer training programmes for technical education institutions on developing curricula aligned with CBET standards.

This article investigated the influence of innovative leadership on employee engagement in Tanzanian public secondary schools. Specifically, the study explored whether innovative leaders could influence organisational commitment and job involvement among employees. Conducted in three regions of mainland Tanzania, the cross-sectional survey adopted a positivist philosophy suitable for hypothesis development. Data was gathered from 386 teachers using structured, closed-ended questionnaires with a 5-point Likert scale. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) with AMOS 23 was used for data analysis. The results revealed that innovative leadership significantly enhances both organisational commitment and job involvement among teachers. The study underscores the need for school heads to adopt innovative practices to engage teachers effectively. Social Exchange Theory (SET) is applicable in this context due to the reciprocity observed in teachers’ engagement and involvement. It is recommended that leaders in all sectors should innovate to enhance employee engagement, ensuring organisational sustainability and quality service delivery.

Introduction: artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning have become buzzwords lately due to technological changes and data quality testing, especially in shape and finish analysis. Lots of research has been conducted for linear regression algorithms to predict the price in different sectors for share stock, rental properties, prices of used cars etc. This study provides suitable data split ratio for optimum cost estimation based on linear regression model. In present days there is an increasing demand for having own car for every middle-class family therefore this have given opportunity to motor vehicle business to offer wide range of used vehicle for re-sale especially companies like Maruti Suzuki, Tata motors & Mahendra motors in Indian motor vehicle industries. Therefore, it is important to know the current value of your car before spending your hard-earned money on any item. Objective: the objective of this paper is finding appropriate value of cars in Metropolitans or even in state capitals. Features like model, mileage, AC, seating capacities, fuel type automatic will be taken into account when doing this. This estimate is designed to help customers find the right options to suit their needs. Method: we have used a linear regression model to estimate the value of the respective car. Results: for doing this price prediction in this paper using liner regression we have tried to find the optimum accuracy of model by varying data split ratio for training and test data set and concluded with the result that 80/20 ratio is the best ratio with optimum model accuracy for business domain analysis with labelled data set. Conclusions: the findings underscore the importance of careful consideration when selecting a data split ratio for price prediction models in the used vehicle market. The insights gleaned from this study can inform future research and contribute to the development of more accurate and reliable regression models in similar domains

Beyond the headlines: On the efficacy and effectiveness of misinformation interventions
Authors: Roozenbeek Jon , Remshard Miriam , Kyrychenko Yara
Published: July 2024

Research into how to best counter misinformation has enjoyed a great deal of popularity, but a discussion about how efficacy (successful lab studies) translates to effectiveness (real-world impact) is lacking. Lab studies have shown that many types of misinformation interventions are efficacious at achieving their intended outcomes (e.g., improving “discernment”, or the ability to distinguish true from false information). However, drawing on implementation science, we identify six challenges facing misinformation interventions research: (1) an overabundance of lab research and a lack of field studies; (2) the presence of testing effects, which impede intervention longevity and scalability; (3) modest effects for small fractions of relevant audiences; (4) a reliance on item evaluation tasks (e.g., rating a series of headlines as true or false) as the primary efficacy measure of interest; (5) low replicability in the Global South and a lack of audience-tailored interventions; and (6) an underappreciation of potential unintended consequences of intervention implementation. We argue that it is time to look beyond item task performance as the primary outcome measure and to elevate both real-world outcomes and alternative measures of effectiveness (e.g., intervention attractiveness or user uptake) as equally important ways of assessing “what works”. We provide practical recommendations for addressing each challenge and improving intervention effectiveness.
