Exploring How Professionals Within Agile Health Care Informatics Perceive Visualizations of Log File Analyses: Observational Study Followed by a Focus Group Interview
Authors: ten Klooster Iris , Noordzij Matthijs Leendert , Kelders Saskia Marion
Published: September 2019

Background

An increasing number of software companies work according to the agile software development method, which is difficult to integrate with user-centered design (UCD) practices. Log file analysis may provide opportunities for integrating UCD practices in the agile process. However, research within health care information technology mostly has a theoretical approach and is often focused on the researcher’s interpretation of log file analyses.

Objective

We aimed to propose a systematic approach to log file analysis in this study and present this to developers to explore how they react and interpret this approach in the context of a real-world health care information system, in an attempt to answer the following question: How may log file analyses contribute to increasing the match between the health care system and its users, within the agile development method, according to agile team members?

Methods

This study comprised 2 phases to answer the research question. In the first phase, log files were collected from a health care information system and subsequently analyzed (summarizing sequential patterns, heat mapping, and clustering). In the second phase, the results of these analyses are presented to agile professionals during a focus group interview. The interpretations of the agile professionals are analyzed by open axial coding.

Results

Log file data of 17,924 user sessions and, in total, 176,678 activities were collected. We found that the Patient Timeline is mainly visited, with 23,707 (23,707/176,678; 13.42%) visits in total. The main unique user session occurred in 5.99% (1074/17,924) of all user sessions, and this comprised Insert Measurement Values for Patient and Patient Timeline, followed by the page Patient Settings and, finally, Patient Treatment Plan. In the heat map, we found that users often navigated to the pages Insert Measurement Values and Load Messages Collaborate. Finally, in the cluster analysis, we found 5 clusters, namely, the Information-seeking cluster, the Collaborative cluster, the Mixed cluster, the Administrative cluster, and the Patient-oriented cluster. We found that the interpretations of these results by agile professionals are related to stating hypotheses (n=34), comparing paths (n=31), benchmarking (n=22), and prioritizing (n=17).

Conclusions

We found that analyzing log files provides agile professionals valuable insights into users’ behavior. Therefore, we argue that log file analyses should be used within agile development to inform professionals about users’ behavior. In this way, further UCD research can be informed by these results, making the methods less labor intensive. Moreover, we argue that these translations to an approach for further UCD research will be carried out by UCD specialists, as they are able to infer which goals the user had when going through these paths when looking at the log data.
Effectiveness of mobile applications on healthy lifestyles aimed at diabetic patients: review of systematic reviews. (Preprint)
Authors: Represas Carrera Sr Francisco Jesús , Martínez Ques Sr Ángel Alfredo , Clavería Fontán Sr Ana
Published: September 2019

BACKGROUND

Diabetes mellitus is currently a major public health problem worldwide. It is traditionally approached in a clinical inpatient relationship between the patient and the healthcare professional. However, the rise of new technologies, particularly mobile applications, is revolutionizing the traditional healthcare model through the introduction of telehealthcare.

OBJECTIVE

(1) To assess the effects of mobile applications for improving healthy lifestyles on the quality of life and metabolic control of diabetes mellitus in adult patients. (2) To describe the characteristics of the mobile applications used, identify the healthy lifestyles they target, and describe any adverse effects their use may have.

METHODS

Review of systematic reviews and meta-analysis, following the guidelines of the Cochrane Collaboration and the Joanna Briggs Institute. We included studies that used any mobile application aimed at helping patients improve self-management of diabetes mellitus by focusing on healthy lifestyles. Studies needed to include a control group receiving regular care without the use of mobile devices. In May 2018, a search was conducted in Medline, Embase, Cochrane, LILACS, PsychINFO, Cinahl and Science Direct, updated in May 2019. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed using the Amstar-2 tool.

RESULTS

Seven systematic reviews of 798 articles were initially selected for analysis. The interventions had a duration of between 1 and 12 months. Mobile applications focused singly or simultaneously on different lifestyles aspects (diet, physical exercise, motivation, blood glucose levels, etc.). There are significant changes in HbA1c values, body weight and BMI, although in others, such as lipid profile, quality of life, or blood pressure, there is no clear improvement.

CONCLUSIONS

There is clear evidence that the use of mobile applications improves glycemic control in diabetic patients in the short term. There is a lack of evidence in its long-term benefits. It is thus necessary to carry out further studies to learn about the long-term effectiveness of mobile applications aimed at promoting the healthy lifestyles of diabetic patients.

An Internet-Based Consumer Resource for People with Low Back Pain (MyBackPain): Development and Evaluation (Preprint)
Authors: Hodges Paul William , Setchell Jenny , Nielsen Mandy
Published: September 2019

UNSTRUCTURED

People increasingly use the internet to obtain information about health complaints, including low back pain (LBP). LBP is the leading cause of disability internationally, and outcomes are worsening. There is an urgent need for resources that aid improvement of outcomes. There have been calls to engage consumers in the development of resources, but this has rarely been implemented. MyBackPain is a website that was developed with extensive involvement of consumers to ensure that the resource meets their needs for content and presentation. This paper aimed to describe the multistep process undertaken to develop the MyBackPain website and provide an extensive evaluation of its impact. Development of MyBackPain involved 10 steps, many of which have been published in the academic literature. These steps included consultation regarding consumer needs, evaluation of existing internet resources, identification of key messages to be reinforced, identification of frequently asked questions, consensus for content, content development (including development of algorithms to guide tailoring of the user experience), development of consumer-focused evidence-based treatment summaries, development of descriptions of health care providers, and testing. Evaluation included qualitative examination of people’s interactions with the website and its effects on their daily lives and an ongoing randomized controlled trial of impact of use of the site on people’s LBP-related health literacy, clinical outcomes, and treatment choices. It is hoped that the website can aid in the reduction of the massive burden of LBP and provide a template for the development of resources for other conditions.
Emerging Travel Trends: Joy of Missing Out (JOMO) Vs Iconic Landmarks
Authors: Putra Fajar Kusnadi Kusumah
Published: September 2019

Tourism derived from many criteria ranging from activities, attractions, location, travel style and the tourism product category preferred. The present paper aimed to examine the two travel trends The Joy of Missing Out (JOMO) and Iconic landmarks and sites by reviewing relevant literature review from both travel trends, and critically analyse which of one of the two trends is likely to dominate. A comparison of the two trends reveals that JOMO is a type of journey that emphasises with the isolation against technology, with motivation for relaxation, escape from everyday routine and commitments. Meanwhile, iconic landmarks and sites travel trends have the characteristics in novelty seeking to visit exciting places, viewing the scenery and related to tourist self-development. These studies provide valuable insights into the JOMO concept related to the motivation of relax and iconic landmarks and sites tourist attraction described as a ‘flagship, which is highly noticeable as the strongest pull-factors of a destination and regarded a primary growth destination resource. The scope of this study was limited in terms of travel trends from the literature review. Further studies need to be carried out in order to validate the experiences of the traveller within these two travel trends by comparing their expectations, perceptions, and motives.

Authors: Flores Galaz Mirta Margarita
Published: September 2019

El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar el mejor predictor de la satisfacción marital a partir de la comunicación y la percepción de los conflictos en la pareja en hombres y mujeres. Participaron 76 hombres y 111 mujeres seleccionados mediante un muestreo no probabilístico accidental, de la Ciudad de Mérida, que respondieron al Inventario de Estilos de Comunicación de la Pareja (Sánchez Aragón & Díaz-Loving, 2003), a la Escala de Conflicto (Rivera Aragón, Díaz-Loving & Cruz del Castillo, 2005) y al Inventario Multifacético de Satisfacción Marital (Cañetas Yerbes, Rivera Aragón & Díaz-Loving, 2000). El análisis de regresión múltiple paso a paso mostró que la presencia de estilos de comunicación positivos y la ausencia de conflictos son factores que contribuyen a la satisfacción marital. Asimismo, se observan diferencias por sexo en el modelo de predicción que son explicadas culturalmente.
Respect and Love in Romantic Relationships
Authors: Hendrick Clyde , Hendrick Susan S. , Zacchilli Tammy L.
Published: September 2019

Respect is conceptualized as one of the fundamental bases of most relationships, particularly close relationships. Respect in close, romantic relationships has been studied only recently (Frei & Shaver, 2002; Hendrick & Hendrick, 2006), and the current paper describes a study designed to build on notions of respect as deeply important in relationships. Some 314 college students participated in the study. Participants read a scenario about a dating couple, John and Linda, who were ostensibly in a psychology experiment during which they rated their respect for each other. John (or Linda) had rated self as having either ―extremely high respect‖ or ―moderately low respect‖ for the partner. Participants were asked to imagine that they were John (or Linda) and then rate the hypothetical partner on love attitudes, relationships satisfaction, commitment, and self-disclosure. Participants also gave their own personal ratings of John (or Linda) on several trait adjectives. The design was a 2 (gender of participant) x 2 (John/Linda) x 2 (high/low respect) factorial experiment. The main effect for respect was significant for 15 of 18 total variables, with an extremely high versus moderately low respected partner garnering more favorable ratings in nearly every case. Respect thus appears to be an important part of the intrinsic meaning of a close, romantic relationship.
Linking Theoretical Explanations for the Use of Marital Maintenance: Equity, Uncertainty, Attachment, and Reciprocity
Authors: Dainton Marianne
Published: September 2019

Research provides support for four theoretical explanations for relationship maintenance: equity, uncertainty, attachment, and reciprocity. This study focused on the relationships among these theoretical explanations, as well as whether the concepts might be combined to provide a single explanation for why an individual enacts maintenance behavior. Survey data were collected from 179 married individuals. Path-modeling techniques revealed that, counter to predictions, uncertainty did not mediate the relationship between equity and maintenance enactment. Further, there were significant correlations among variables associated with all four theories. A series of multiple regression equations indicated that the four theoretical concepts predicted between 16% and 68% of the variance in maintenance enactment. Among the four theoretical explanations, reciprocity was the strongest and most consistent predictor.
Lóbulos Frontales y Funciones Ejecutivas en Transexuales
Authors: Orozco Calderón Gabriela , Ostrosky Shejet Feggy
Published: September 2019

Una persona transexual se define como aquella que presenta una incongruencia entre el fenotipo físico y la identidad de género. Existen transexuales nacidos hombres pero con identidad de género de mujer. Se ha propuesto que uno de los orígenes de esta condición radica en los efectos que las hormonas esteroides sexuales tienen sobre el desarrollo cerebral a nivel prenatal y es posible que afecten las funciones cognitivas como las funciones ejecutivas. El objetivo fue evaluar funciones ejecutivas en transexuales hombre a mujer. Con la batería de lóbulos Frontales y Funciones Ejecutivas, se encontró que las Transexuales tuvieron una menor ejecución comparadas con los hombres en los puntajes totales de funciones ejecutivas y en los totales de corteza prefrontal orbitomedial. En las subpruebas de inhibición (Stroop) y Toma de decisiones (Juego de cartas del IOWA) las transexuales obtuvieron menores puntajes que los hombres y las mujeres. Estos resultados apoyan las evidencias que indican que las TH-M presentan una ejecución cognitiva lejana a su sexo de nacimiento y se propone un perfil cognitivo en las TH-M diferente al de los hombres y las mujeres.
Las Dimensiones del Apego y los Síndromes Culturales como Determinantes de la Expresión Emocional
Authors: Frías Cárdenas María Teresa , Díaz Loving Rolando , Shaver Phillip
Published: September 2019

Las reglas de expresión emocional son normas culturales que dictan el manejo y modificación de las manifestaciones emocionales y se asocian consistentemente con los síndromes culturales. Se propone que las reglas de expresión emocional también son afectadas por la seguridad del apego. A través de una plataforma de internet se administraron instrumentos de auto-reporte a un grupo de estudiantes de México y otro de Estados Unidos, encontrándose que la ansiedad y evitación del apego limitan la expresión de emociones positivas hacia los miembros del endogrupo, mientras que el colectivismo motiva la expresión de estas emociones. Además, la evitación del apego y el colectivismo limitan la expresión de emociones negativas hacia el endogrupo, mientras que el individualismo la favorece. El patrón general de resultados refleja que las dimensiones de ansiedad y evitación del apego afectan únicamente las reglas de expresión de emociones hacia los miembros del endogrupo.

Authors: Díaz-Rodríguez Cecilia Lourdes , González Ramírez Mónica Teresa
Published: September 2019

La presente investigación tomó como marco de referencia la teoría de la autoeficacia de Bandura, la clasificación en cuatro grupos generacionales (silenciosos, baby boomers, X, milenio) con base en los planteamientos de Bickel y Brown, (2005); Sánchez (2008), así como la definición de machismo de Castañeda (2002, 2007). Lo anterior para dar respuesta a los objetivos de evaluar diferencias entre grupos generacionales en las variables autoeficacia en el uso del condón, autoeficacia para evitar conductas de riesgo y machismo, y establecer las diferencias dentro de cada grupo generacional. Se evaluó a un total de 565 personas. Los principales resultados reflejan que las variables de autoeficacia muestran un mayor puntaje conforme avanzan las generaciones, observando que las generaciones más jóvenes presentan mayor autoeficacia. En cuanto al machismo, se encontró nivel equivalente entre la generación milenio y la X, así como entre lageneración milenio y los baby boomers. Se discuten los resultados en su utilidad para establecer programas de prevención.
Medición de la Complejidad Atribucional en las Relaciones Románticas
Authors: Sánchez Aragón Rozzana , Retana Franco Blanca E. , Jiménez Rodríguez Berenice
Published: September 2019

La Complejidad Atribucional (CA) es un constructo psicológico que expresa el grado en el cual el individuo se encuentra atraído por comprender las diferentes causas de la conductas de otros, por lo cual genera explicaciones basadas en determinantes que van de lo más interno en el individuo hacia la cultura e instituciones sociales, lo que crea variaciones en el grado de complejidad. En el contexto interpersonal, esta variable ha sido abordada limitadamente y en ciertos grupos culturales (p.e. Finchman, Bradbury & Grynch, 1990; Fitness & Curtis, 2005), por lo que el interés de esta investigación fue el diseño y validación de una escala de CA en las relaciones románticas. Se trabajó con una muestra no probabilística de 467 participantes de la Ciudad de México, quienes respondieron a una versión de 79 reactivos con formato de respuesta tipo Likert de 5 puntos. En cuanto a la validez, los resultados mostraron la obtención de 4 factores puros y 3 con matices de las propias dimensiones teóricas. Las varianzas explicadas fueron superiores al 35% y los coeficientes de confiabilidad fueron de .52 a .80.
Sustainable Behaviors and Perceived Psychological Restoration
Authors: Corral-Verdugo Victor , García Fernanda I. , Tapia-Fonllem Cesar , Fraijo-Sing Blanca
Published: September 2019

This study was aimed at exploring one potential psychological benefit of sustainable behaviors: the perceived psychological restoration (PR) associated to engaging in pro-environmental activities at both the physical and social levels. PR involves the recovery of lost psychological resources (attention, positive mood states, psychological wellbeing) mostly caused by attentional fatigue and stress, while sustainable behavior constitutes a set of actions aimed at the protection of natural and social resources. One-hundred- and thirtyseven individuals living in a Northern Mexican city participated in a study assessing four instances of sustainable behavior: altruistic, proecological, frugal, and equitable actions. In addition, four dimensions of a construct related to the perceived psychological restorative effects of sustainable behaviors were measured: being away, fascination, extent and compatibility, assumedly resulting from pro-environmental and pro-socialactions. Using structural equation modeling, the first four constructs were aggregated into a higher-order factor (sustainable behavior), while the rest of the constructs constituted a second higher-order factor (perceived restoration). These two higher-order factors resulted highly and significantly associated, indicating that practicing actions of environmental and social conservation might likely result in the restoration of lost psychological functions. These results reinforce the idea that sustainable behavior produces positive psychological consequences.

Published: September 2019

El propósito principal del estudio fue explicar la dependencia tabáquica y el consumo de cigarros desde una perspectiva motivacional en una muestra de estudiantes de preparatoria de sexo indistinto. Se emplearon cuatro escalas del Inventario de Wisconsin de Motivos de Dependencia del Tabaco, una escala de normas paternas y una de amigos fumadores; así como dos medidas internacionales de consumo de cigarrillos y un cuestionario de dependencia tabáquica. El análisis de regresión múltiple de dependencia tabáquica mostró que exposición a claves, normas paternas y reforzamiento positivo explicaron el 54.30% de la varianza. Se elaboró un modelo estructural de la dependencia al tabaco que incluyó los motivos mencionados y el número de días de consumo, el cual se ajustó bien a los datos. Todos los efectos directos sobre las medidas de dependencia fueron significativos, así como las covarianzas entre los motivos. De acuerdo al estadístico Wald que se obtuvo en el análisis de clases latentes, hubo diferencias significativas entre los tres grupos en los cuatro indicadores: dependencia, exposición a claves, amigos fumadores y número de días de consumo.
Efecto de Diversas Variables Psicológicas sobre la Salud: Resultados de algunos Estudios Hechos en México
Authors: Acuña Laura
Published: September 2019

Tanto con animales como con humanos se ha demostrado que el estrés puede causar daños en la salud. También se ha mostrado que algunas variables psicológicas modulan la relación entre el estrés y la enfermedad. En el presente trabajo se sumarizan los resultados de varios estudios realizados en México sobre distintas variables psicológicas relacionadas con la salud de las personas. Se mencionan resultados de estudios para validar cuestionarios para medir estrés vital y apoyo social percibido. También se muestra evidencia de que es factible medir el apoyo social como una auténtica variable independiente, utilizando los juicios de otras personas sobre su disposición para interactuar con un individuo. Se muestra evidencia de que las primeras personas que brindan apoyo son las responsables del efecto benéfico del apoyo social, mientras que prestadores de ayuda adicionales tienen efectos cada vez menos pronunciados. Se reseñan estudios que mostraron que al igual que en otras culturas el estrés tiene un efecto nocivo sobre la salud de los mexicanos y que el apoyo social mitiga dichos efectos nocivos. Diferente de otras culturas, en México la feminidad y no la masculinidad es el factor que mitiga los efectos dañinos del estrés, mientras que el afrontar los problemas no modula la relación estrés-enfermedad.
El cuerpo en forma: Masculinidad, imagen corporal y trastornos en la conducta alimentaria de atletas varones universitarios
Authors: Toro-Alfonso José , Walters-Pacheco Kattia Z. , Sánchez Cardona Israel
Published: September 2019

El paradigma de la masculinidad hegemónica tiene un impacto en la vida de los hombres y en la forma en que construyen su masculinidad y su cuerpo. El modelo hegemónico remite a una masculinidad dominante sobre las mujeres y sobre otros hombres. La masculinidad hegemónica representa el referente de fortaleza, dominio, fuerza, desconexión de la emotividad y el privilegio social que se les otorga a los hombres. Es a través del deporte que el hombre forma y conforma su cuerpo, frente a otros hombres y frente a las mujeres. El deporte es sin dudas, el espacio público en donde se encuentran los hombres como iguales junto a sus pares. En este ritual deportivo los cuerpos masculinos se reafirman entre sí a la distancia de las mujeres. En la búsqueda del cuerpo que desean, los atletas pueden recurrir a comportamientos de riesgo a partir de su percepción del cuerpo. Aquellos atletas con alteraciones en la percepción de su imagen corporal pueden desarrollar conductas perturbadas en su alimentación lo que puede tener consecuencias en la aparición de trastornos en la conducta alimentaria. En este estudio con 385 atletas varones de nivel universitario, seleccionados por disponibilidad, se exploró la percepción del cuerpo, el nivel de adherencia al modelo hegemónico de la masculinidad y la presencia de indicadores de trastornos en la conducta alimentaria. Los hallazgos indican que el 76% se adhiere de manera moderada o alta al modelo tradicional de la masculinidad, 15% reportan indicadores de disturbios en la conducta alimentaria y 9% informó dificultades con su imagen corporal. Se encontró una relación significativa entre el modelo tradicional de la masculinidad y trastornos en la conducta alimentaria y entre tener dificultades con la imagen corporal y la presencia de indicadores de trastornos en la conducta alimentaria.

THE ORIGIN OF THE FAIR WAR’S DOCTRINE IN GROTIUS AND ITS (IN) ADEQUACY TO DEMOCRACY IN RAWLS
Authors: Malvasio Daniela Ruschel , Zambam Neuro José
Published: September 2019

O presente artigo tem como objetivo determinar se existe adequação da doutrina da Guerra Justa à democracia, a partir de um estudo de sua origem, em Hugo Grotius, e de uma análise do Direito dos Povos, de John Rawls. Grotius, em sua obra “O Direito da Guerra e da Paz”, traz uma abordagem jurídica ao sentido de Guerra Justa, enquanto Rawls, no livro “O Direito dos Povos”, desenvolve essa doutrina com base nos princípios tradicionais de justiça entre povos livres e democráticos e nos princípios limitadores da guerra. A visão de Rawls engloba uma perspectiva sobre direitos humanos e democracia, atualizando o conceito de Guerra Justa e trazendo uma nova discussão sobre a relevância desse instituto às democracias contemporâneas.
El teatro judío en la polémica shund/kunst: el IFT y el teatro de arte
Authors: Ansaldo Paula
Published: September 2019

En este trabajo nos proponemos reflexionar sobre el movimiento de teatros de arte judíos que tuvo su auge a principios del siglo XX, con el objetivo de indagar en la forma en que sus postulados incidieron en la creación del teatro IFT en 1932 en Argentina. El surgimiento de Buenos Aires como un centro teatral judío de importancia fue tardío con respecto al desarrollo de las principales ciudades teatrales judías en Europa del Este, Rusia y los Estados Unidos, por lo que el teatro judío porteño heredó una serie de debates y polémicas que para entonces ya estaban firmemente instalados en el campo teatral judío, y que resultan fundamentales para entender el surgimiento de un teatro de arte en Buenos Aires.

Published: September 2019

The main purpose of the current study is to examine the association between Corporate Governance’s (GC) variables represented by board characteristics and Bank performance measured by ROE and ROA in GCC banking sector. For the purposes of this study, the sample of 68 banks in gulf countries during the period from 2013 to 2017 have been selected and divided the data to Islamic banks and conventional banks (16 Islamic banks, 52 Non-Islamic). Furthermore this study uses the nonparametric regression OLS and Quantile analysis. The current study suggest that the existence of female directors on the board of director in last years is significantly associated with better performance, we concludes that females in GCC banking sector in latest years reached a high level of maturity in understanding banking industry. Furthermore, this study suggests that the audit committee associated positively and significantly with bank performance, it means that the audit committee in latest years plays important role in enhancing the performance. In addition to the above, the political member on the board and risk committee does not affect the performance significantly. Both of board size and Sharia committee are associated positively and significantly with performance.

Banyak penemuan tak terduga (kebetulan) memiliki dampak mendalam dalam pembelajaran sains. Berdasarkan tipologi serendipity dapat dikompilasi menjadi serendipity murni dan pseudo serendipity. Selain itu, Serendipity murni jika kita dikaitkan dengan penalaran ilmiah diketahui bahwa itu cenderung terjadi sesuai dengan inferensi induktif, inferensi abduktif, sedangkan kebetulan semu sebagian besar terjadi oleh inferensi deduktif. Oleh karena itu, berdasarkan penalaran ilmiah, kebetulan dapat dikelompokkan menjadi: 1) Kesempatan yang muncul dari kesimpulan induktif; 2) Serendipity yang berasal dari kesimpulan deduktif; dan 3)   Serendipity yang muncul dari inferensi abduktif yang menggarisbawahi konstruksi teori berdasarkan fakta. Kata kunci : Serendipity murni, Pseudo serendipity, Penalaran ilmiah
