Published: October 2022

AbstractNatural fiber‐based materials are widely accepted in the composite sector as a substitute for synthetic fiber, particularly in structural and semi‐structural implementations in the automotive and aerospace industries, reflecting a recent trend and increased awareness of the importance of sustainable product design. Hand lay‐up was used to create natural fiber bilayer hybrid composites with epoxy matrix reinforcing oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) and kenaf fiber matting. The overall effect of this hybridization of the natural fiber and the thermal characterizations were studied experimentally. Both the hybrid combinations kenaf fiber and oil palm EFB were made by maintaining the fiber loading at 50% (weight) and weight ratios at 1:1, 1:4 and 4:1. The Tan delta, loss modulus (E″), storage modulus (E′), and Cole‐Cole plot were found to be useful in investigating dynamic mechanical properties. Dynamic mechanical analysis results like coefficient of performance and Cole‐Cole plot clearly show that hybrid pure kenaf composite has the significant complex modulus because interfacial bond between fiber and matrix is strong. As a result, it has been determined that kenaf fibers have the best mixing ratio for improving the dynamic mechanical properties of these hybrid type composites and can be used for aerospace, automotive, and civil engineering applications requiring high dimensional stability and excellent mechanical properties. The thermal gravimetric analysis data demonstrated that as compared to pure, the kenaf fibers and hybrid oil palm empty fruit bunch composites have the best thermal stability, with the highest beginning and ultimate breakdown temperatures of 200 and 450°C, respectively.

Published: October 2022

AbstractFor most individuals, changes occurring during the aging process may cause dissatisfaction and concerns regarding body image, with implications on quality of life (QoL). The aim of this study was to assess the contribution of sociodemographic and psychological variables and the type of anti‐aging products/treatments on men's QoL, as well as to evaluate the moderating role of aging perceptions in the relationship between psychological morbidity and QoL. This study used a cross‐sectional design and included a sample of 111 male participants who used anti‐aging cosmetic products/aesthetic treatments. Participants were assessed on body image, self‐esteem, psychological morbidity, aging perceptions, traits of perfectionism, and QoL. Results suggested that psychological morbidity and perceptions of the aging process as chronic negatively contributed to QoL, and emotional representations of aging moderated the relationship between psychological morbidity and QoL. According to the findings, psychological intervention programs to improve QoL should focus on men with higher levels of psychological morbidity and more negative emotional responses to the aging process.

AbstractMicrobial biofilms are of critical concern because of their recalcitrance to antimicrobials. Cold atmospheric plasmas (CAP) represent a promising biofilm remediation strategy as they generate reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), but mechanisms underpinning CAP‐biofilm interactions remain unknown. We assess the impact of treatment modality on biofilm inactivation and show that CAP killing of Staphylococcus aureus biofilms is dependent on treatment conditions, including solution chemistry. In dry treatments, biofilms are locally ablated due to plasma‐produced O flux. For saline‐submerged biofilms, while we show that ClO− is generated at high concentrations in larger treatment volumes, CAP inactivation at low ClO− concentrations implicates other reaction pathways. Finally, we demonstrate CAP efficacy over conventional antimicrobials, underscoring its promise as a biofilm treatment approach.

AbstractBackgroundSharing data across institutions is critical to improving care for children who are using long‐term mechanical ventilation (LTMV). Mechanical ventilation data are complex and poorly standardized. This lack of data standardization is a major barrier to data sharing.ObjectiveWe aimed to describe current ventilator data in the electronic health record (EHR) and propose a framework for standardizing these data using a common data model (CDM) across multiple populations and sites.MethodsWe focused on a cohort of patients with LTMV dependence who were weaned from mechanical ventilation (MV). We extracted and described relevant EHR ventilation data. We identified the minimum necessary components, termed “Clinical Ideas,” to describe MV from time of initiation to liberation. We then utilized existing resources and partnered with informatics collaborators to develop a framework for incorporating Clinical Ideas into the PEDSnet CDM based on the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP).ResultsWe identified 78 children with LTMV dependence who weaned from ventilator support. There were 25 unique device names and 28 unique ventilation mode names used in the cohort. We identified multiple Clinical Ideas necessary to describe ventilator support over time: device, interface, ventilation mode, settings, measurements, and duration of ventilation usage per day. We used Concepts from the SNOMED‐CT vocabulary and integrated an existing ventilator mode taxonomy to create a framework for CDM and OMOP integration.ConclusionThe proposed framework standardizes mechanical ventilation terminology and may facilitate efficient data exchange in a multisite network. Rapid data sharing is necessary to improve research and clinical care for children with LTMV dependence.
What Guides Knowledge Work in the Library? Maps, Routines, and Workarounds
Authors: Freeburg Darin , Klein Katie 
Published: October 2022

AbstractKnowledge work in the library is guided by a complex array of maps that outline how work should be done, who should do it, and how staff should think and behave. These maps originate from human and non‐human actors in the work system, including management, staff, patrons, technology, and physical space. In this study, six public library staff engaged in think‐alouds and semi‐structured interviews aimed at learning more about the function and content of these maps, how these maps were acquired, the challenges staff faced in trying to follow these maps, and how staff responded to these challenges. Results suggest how library management can support staff as they attempt to navigate the affordances and constraints of these maps—work that is key to sustained library resilience.
Characterizing Peer Review Comments of Academic Articles in Multiple Rounds

Published: October 2022

AbstractPeer review can evaluate the quality of academic articles involving the evaluation of some aspects, e.g., methodology, experiment, and aspects are usually the critical sections, substance and properties of the article concerned by reviewers. Previous research on content mining of peer review did not distinguish the round of reviews. Detecting differences peer review comments among different rounds can help us to understand the focus change of the reviewers in the different rounds. This paper takes the Nature Communications as an example to build the corpora of peer reviews in multiple rounds. We correlate review rounds and citations and extract aspects from the corpora to analyze the round characteristics of review comments. We find that there is no significant correlation between the review rounds and the citations frequency, but when the number of rounds is within 1–3, there is a weak positive correlation between the review rounds and citations. Additionally, the reviewers tend to pay more attention to the results analysis and the significance of the work firstly, and then they will focus on the details of the article, such as diagrams. This study can provide new ideas for peer review mining and the application of bibliometrics.
Sharing Research Design, Methods and Process Information in and out of Academia
Authors: Huvila Isto , Sinnamon Luanne 
Published: October 2022

AbstractAn interview study of (N=) 16 senior researchers at a major Canadian research university shows that researchers use a broad range of means to share information about research process, methods and design to different audiences. The purpose of sharing information on these aspects of research is to enable redoing and replicating earlier studies, to preserve knowledge of how studies were conducted, to understand data, and because of the social pressure to share. Time as a barrier and distance to overcome, disciplinary and contextual variation have a major impact on sharing. In the light of the findings, a one size fits all approach is unlikely to succeed. It is critical to choose appropriate methods that help to focus on what is relevant to share in particular disciplinary contexts, and for specific audiences and goals of transparency.
Editorial Behaviors for Biasing Wikipedia Articles
Authors: Morris‐O’Connor Danielle , Strotmann Andreas , Zhao Dangzhi 
Published: October 2022

AbstractAs the vital source of information on the Web that it has long become, Wikipedia (WP) has developed detailed policies and guidelines for contributing to it as well as for resolving conflicts with a goal to ensure that all important viewpoints are represented fairly and supported by trustworthy published resources. However, WP has long been criticized for systemic biases in its content, which are often implemented and maintained through the use of these same WP policies and guidelines. The present study explores editorial behaviors of a selected editor who succeeded in biasing a set of WP articles. By selecting an editor to examine through a big‐data approach, this study can serve as an objective crosscheck for previously reported tactics for introducing and maintaining bias observed from personal experiences of disputes on WP, and could provide evidence to generate empirically grounded hypotheses concerning editorial practices indicative of bias. It was found that editorial behavior around deletion and erasure is an important strategy for implementing and maintaining bias on WP, and WP policies and guidelines are used to support and validate the silencing of other voices.
Everyday Information Behavior of Marginalized Communities in the Global South: Informal Transportation as Example
Authors: Fourie Ina , Agarwal Naresh K. , Sonnenwald Diane H. , Julien Heidi , Rorissa Abebe , Detlor Brian 
Published: October 2022

AbstractInformation science is increasingly focused on giving voice to marginalized communities, improving their daily lives, and contributing to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI). However, challenges facing marginalized communities in the Global South are less frequently investigated, yet of great importance. Millions of people depend on information for essential everyday life activities such as transportation. Successful, timely daily commuting between home and work influences financial stability, family time, and safety. Everyday life information behavior as a research lens can reveal information activities, influencing factors, information sources, and contexts applying to informal transportation use by poorer socio‐economic groups. Theories of information behavior such as information poverty and information horizons can shed light. Understanding information behavior contexts, and how to bridge the digital divide and promotion of networking, sharing, and learning for marginalized populations through community‐led digital literacy training can help tailor interventions.

Authors: Gala Bhakti , Islam Md. Anwarul , Gamage Ruwan , Agarwal Naresh Kumar 
Published: October 2022

AbstractThe fight against the COVID‐19 pandemic is as much an information war as it is a medical war. Members from South Asia and the Asia Pacific countries share their experiences and challenges faced with collaborative responses for the ASIS&T Special Chapter funded project on “Dealing with COVID‐19 and saving people’s lives in South Asia (SA) areas & beyond—A Health Informatics Promotion Project” awarded to the South Asia Chapter in 2021. The panel discusses the challenges faced within the context of geopolitical, socio‐economic, religious, and cultural conditions prevalent within their countries. In the first 40 minutes, panel members narrate their own experiences by sharing their personal stories about this collaborative project and share the challenges of content creation and promotion from within the context of their respective countries. The next 30 minutes will be facilitated by the panel chair inviting a discussion between panel members and the audience to engage and come up with innovative ideas, discuss challenges in creating multilingual content and suggestions for improving the project outcome as well as shed light on initiating future health informatics project in similar regions. The last 20 minutes will culminate with the summarization of these collaborative experiences.
The Influence of Personality Traits in Human‐Humanoid Robot Interaction
Authors: Chien Shih‐Yi , Chen Chih‐Ling , Chan Yao‐Cheng 
Published: October 2022

AbstractWith the advancement of science and technology, humanoid robots have been gradually adopted in human society. Given the human‐like appearance, the perceived personality of a humanoid robot can affect humans' general perceptions of the robotic agent, and even task performance. However, limited research pays attention to examining how a humanoid robot's non‐verbal cues characterize its personality traits. To solve this gap, this research aims to investigate how to use humanoid robots’ non‐verbal features (textual and gestural information) to develop different kinds of personality attributes, and how these personality characteristics affect human‐robot interaction. A total of 255 participants were recruited for this research, including pilot tests and two rounds of lab studies examining different levels of task complexity. The empirical results reveal the developed gestural cues allow a humanoid robot to distinguishably convey extrovert, ambivert, and introvert personality traits, where the perceived traits significantly affect user intentions to interact with the humanoid robot.

Implementing Indigenous Data Sovereignty: Insights from Legislative Reform in Aotearoa New Zealand
Authors: Oliver Gillian , Lilley Spencer , Cranefield Jocelyn , Lewellen Matthew 
Published: October 2022

ABSTRACTAchieving data sovereignty is a critical concern for Indigenous communities worldwide and should be considered essential for an information‐resilient society. Māori‐led initiatives in Aotearoa New Zealand have successfully raised awareness of the issues concerned and led to considerable progress being made towards implementing Māori data sovereignty principles in the public sector. The process of updating the statute requiring the collection and use of official data and statistics has provided the opportunity to embed those principles in legislation. Analysis of the submissions made on the draft Data and Statistics Bill provides a unique window on very different perspectives with regard to Indigenous data sovereignty and how it should be realised. Findings show a range of views expressed by key stakeholders, provide insight that will be relevant for Indigenous data sovereignty initiatives in other countries, and raise awareness of issues that deserve attention from the information science community.
A Survey of Undergraduate Engineering Students' Personal Information Management Practices
Authors: Dodson Samuel 
Published: October 2022

ABSTRACTPersonal information management (PIM) includes the activities and preferences that support future information use. PIM is especially important in the context of engineering education, where learners are expected to engage with a substantial amount of information. This paper builds on the findings of a research project on the information practices of undergraduate engineering students, examined through multiple qualitative and quantitative methods (Dodson, 2021). This paper reports on one aspect of the project, an online questionnaire (n = 103). Findings suggest learners regularly engage in PIM activities, and experience different degrees of challenge when managing multiple types of information.

Published: October 2022

ABSTRACTAffordances are action possibilities that emerge from the relationship between the properties of an object and an interacting agent's capabilities. This poster examines how one type of affordance—anonymity—is enabled or constrained by six features of social media platforms. Our work is one step in a broader agenda to: (1) identify affordances that influence users' behaviour in online communities; (2) outline the social media features that enable or constrain those affordances; and, (3) experimentally determine whether certain affordances, or combinations of affordances, support prosocial behaviour. Prosocial behaviour in information and communication technologies (ICTs) is broadly viewed here as benefiting other individuals in online communities, which in turn could increase the subjective well‐being (SWB) of the community's members. SWB is characterized by high positive affect, low negative affect, and high life satisfaction.
A User Study in a Pandemic: Some Lessons Learned
Authors: Rogers Kristine M. , Trubey Emily , Oard Douglas W. 
Published: October 2022

ABSTRACTDuring the COVID‐19 pandemic, some research that otherwise would have been conducted in person pivoted to online platforms. This poster paper describes lessons learned from an online study of information behavior by individuals with long‐term information needs, focusing on what was learned about how to conduct such a study online. Broadly, three themes are evident: (1) Trust mechanisms were weaker than would be expected for an in‐person study, resulting in greater coordination difficulties; (2) What seemed to be a fair reimbursement rate appears to have provided an outsized incentive for fraud; and (3) Zoom proved to be sufficiently capable as a platform for remote use of software for a study that had not originally been designed with remote use in mind.
What Are Public Libraries For? Culture As a Determinant of Conceptualizations of Public Library Services for Forced Migrants
Authors: Salzano Rachel , Brazier David , Hall Hazel , Webster Gemma 
Published: October 2022

ABSTRACTPublic libraries offer important services for newcomer populations, including forced migrants. They help facilitate the integration of forced migrants into the host country, increase their levels of trust within new communities, and build social capital. To date, however, the determinants of forced migrant engagement with public library services has been left unexplored. Here the impact of culture on conceptualizations of public library services, and the role of this on the adoption and use of public library services, is investigated using the Theory of information worlds. The analysis is based on data collected in semi‐structured interviews with 30 UK service gatekeepers for forced migrants. Thematic analysis identified three conceptualizations of public library services as: (1) leisure services, that (2) offer information services, (3) as part of a larger system that includes other functions such as immigration and policing. These conceptualizations impact service use and, importantly, non‐use. Further contributions of the work include the proposal that Maslow's (1943) Hierarchy of needs may serve as a moderating variable for the five societal elements of the Theory of information worlds, and practical recommendations for public library staff keen to increase forced migrant engagement with the services that they offer.
Maintaining Repositories, Databases, and Digital Collections in Memory Institutions: An Integrative Review
Authors: Thomer Andrea K. , Starks Joseph R. , Rayburn Alexandria , Lenard Michael C. 
Published: October 2022

ABSTRACTDatabase maintenance and migration are critical but under‐supported activities in libraries, archives, museums (LAMs), and other scholarly spaces. Existing guidelines for digital curation rarely account for the maintenance needed to keep digital curation infrastructures functioning over time. Though many case studies have been published describing individual instances of migration, there has been little generalizable research done in this area. Thus, it is challenging to understand overall trends or best practices in this space. We bridge this gap by conducting an integrative literature review of papers describing database migrations and maintenance in LAMs and other scholarly contexts. By qualitatively coding 75 articles from 58 publication venues, we identify common motivations for database migrations and maintenance actions. We find that databases are migrated to support changing user needs as well as to ward off technological obsolescence; we also find that common challenges include schema crosswalking and a need for data cleaning. Practitioners describe community collaboration as key in surmounting these challenges. Through this integrative review, we build a base for further best practices development and identify a need to better model database curation as part of the digital curation lifecycle.
