AbstractAimsTo determine the effect of design thinking approach in interprofessional education programme of human sexuality course.DesignA pre‐test and post‐test of single‐group quasi‐experimental study.MethodsThe 35 nursing students and seven psychology students in their third year were selected by the computer randomly sampling through the lottery method. The course proceeded between September 2019 and January 2020. The participants had received an 8‐week, 16‐hr design thinking approach in interprofessional education programme of human sexuality course (one section per week, 2 hr per section). We used the nursing attitude toward sexual healthcare scale, nursing intervention toward sexual healthcare scale to assess students' attitude and behaviour intention toward sexual health care and competence of interprofessional education scale to assess students' competence of cooperation before and after the teaching programme. Data analysis used descriptive statistics and t‐tests. A qualitative reflection log was also provided and analysed for themes. The SQUIRE‐EDU checklist was followed.ResultsThe students' attitude and behavioural intention dimension score in the post‐test is higher than those in the pre‐test and reach statistically significant differences both in total and subscale. Interprofessional core competence score of Observation Experience, Reflective Feedback, Interprofessional Cooperation, Innovative Design, and Applied Technology score in the post‐test is higher than those in the pre‐test and reach statistically significant differences both in total and subscale. Design thinking in interprofessional education programme of human sexuality course could significantly improve both nursing and psychology students' attitude, behaviour intention of providing sexual health care and competence of interprofessional cooperation.

AbstractAimSimulation‐based nursing education interventions have a strong educational effect on psychomotoric skills, but students may experience physiological stress and anxiety during simulation. The aims of this study were to explore (1) nursing students' perceived stress, self‐efficacy, control and evaluation before and after simulation as part a structured course in physical assessment, (2) whether factors such as gender, age or previous work experience were associated with perceived stress during simulation and (3) nursing students evaluation of the course.DesignAn observational, cross‐sectional study before and after simulation and a course in physical assessment.MethodsWe utilized “the Self‐Assessment Manikin for measuring emotion” before and after simulation, a questionnaire to identify symptoms of stress after simulation, and a questionnaire to evaluate the physical assessment course.ResultsA total of 59 students participated. Students perceived stress before simulation but reported a lower degree of activation, a more positive mood, increased feeling of control and self‐efficacy after the simulation. They also felt more secure about their assessments. Even though students reported of several symptoms of stress before simluation, the course increased students' self‐reported competence and feeling of security.

AbstractThe aliphatic amide with hydrophilic groups and flexible segments are ideal monomers to modify poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fibers. In this paper, two amide monomers, the adipate pentamethylenediamine salts (APs) and its end‐capping substances (APA), were used as the modified monomers to prepare copolymers (PET/APs, PET/APA) by copolymerization with PTA and EG. Their chemical structures and compositions were confirmed by 1H‐NMR and 13C‐NMR. Copolymers exhibited excellent melt fluidity and a lower glass transition temperature than PET due to the incorporation of flexible segments, and the properties of copolymer PET/APA was more evident than PET/APs. The copolymer fibers were prepared by melt spinning, exhibiting excellent hygroscopicity, softness, and antistatic properties. The moisture regain of PET/APs fibers increased by 39% ~ 200%, and the initial modulus decreased by 32% ~ 68% than PET fibers; the moisture regain of PET/APA fibers increased by 53% ~ 213%, and the initial modulus decreased by 50% ~ 72% than PET fibers. Which was proportional to the content of modified monomers, and the soft handle was closed to wool fibers. Moreover, PET/APA fibers exhibited better hygroscopicity and softness properties than PET/APs fibers, and the excellent yellow index (b value) by adopting end‐capping technology, which broaden the application prospects of PET fibers.

Published: September 2022

AbstractTwo kinds of hydrogels based on acrylic acid (AA) and acrylamide (AAm) without and with 2‐acrylamido‐2‐methylpropane sulphonic acid (AMPS) were synthesized by radical polymerization using ethylene glycol dimethylacrylate as a crosslinker, to form double network (DN) and triple network (TN) interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN) gels, respectively. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) presented evidence for the formation of polyacrylic acid (PAA)/polyacrylamide (PAAm) IPN gels and Michael‐type grafting of poly(AAm‐co‐AMPS) onto PAA in TN gels. The scanning electron microscopy micrograph images exhibited a microporous morphology for synthesized IPN gels which was more compact in TN hydrogel samples compared with DN hydrogels due to the presence of AMPS (which is also proved through energy dispersive X‐ray pattern and elemental analysis results) and higher crosslinking density in the structure of TN IPN hydrogels. Swelling behaviors indicated that TN superabsorbent gels presented 192.4 g/g water absorbency which was over three folds and 107 folds the swelling capacity of DN hydrogels and PAA in water, respectively. Additionally, TN alcogels showed enhanced swelling capacities of 99.1, 94.3, and 70.0 g/g in dimethyl sulfoxide, methanol and ethanol, respectively. The significant improvements in the values of absorbency related to TN gels compared to other samples can be attributed to the strong ionic sulfonic acid groups (SO3H) in AMPS along with hydrogen bonding as a strong polyelectrolyte and the formation of a three‐component interpenetrating network structure with higher crosslink density. This structure formed in TN IPN gels can be responsible for elastic behavior, stable gel formation, and enhanced thermal stability of IPN hydrogels, as indicated by rheological, dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) results.

AbstractBackgroundThe SARS‐CoV‐2 outbreak in 2020 evolved into a global pandemic, and COVID‐19 vaccines became rapidly available, including for pediatric patients. However, questions emerged that challenged vaccine acceptance and use. We aimed to answer these questions and give recommendations applicable for use in pediatric patients with cancer by healthcare professionals and the public.MethodsA 12‐member global COVID‐19 Vaccine in Pediatric Oncology Working Group made up of physicians and nurses from all world regions met weekly from March to July 2021. We used a modified Delphi method to select the top questions. The Working Group, in four‐member subgroups, answered assigned questions by providing brief recommendations, followed by a discussion of the rationale for each answer. All Working Group members voted on each recommendation using a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being complete agreement. A “pass” recommendation corresponded to an agreement ≥7.5.ResultsWe selected 15 questions from 173 suggested questions. Based on existing published information, we generated answers for each question as recommendations. The overall average agreement for the 24 recommendations was 9.5 (95% CI 9.4–9.6).ConclusionTop COVID‐19 vaccine‐related questions could be answered using available information. Reports on COVID‐19 vaccination and related topics have been published at record speed, aided by available technology and the priority imposed by the pandemic; however, all efforts were made to incorporate emerging information throughout our project. Recommendations will be periodically updated on a dedicated website.

AbstractThis research focuses on developing a new material by reinforcing chemically treated Calotropis gigantea bast fibers (CG) with epoxy resin as matrix. Composites using varying wt% of treated CG fibers were fabricated taking epoxy as matrix. The effect of chemical treatment and fiber loading on various mechanical properties, thermal, water absorption properties, and morphology using scanning electron microscope (SEM) were investigated. An increasing trend in the values of mechanical properties was observed till optimum fiber loading and then declines. The optimum properties were found at 20 wt% of fiber loading. At this fiber loading the composites were characterized by Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X‐ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric (TGA) and compared with untreated fiber reinforced composites and neat epoxy. When comparing untreated and treated composites, it was discovered that composites containing 20% treated CG fibers produce better outcomes. The findings provide manufacturers and engineers with a general concept of how to employ the composites to make low‐weight automotive parts for improved fuel efficiency.

AbstractThe fiber industry develops materials with good physical and mechanical characteristics, but it also generates a lot of waste that is difficult to degrade. Glass fibers can be extracted from waste glass fiber reinforced polymers because of advancements in grinding and sorting technologies. The objective of the current paper is to use waste glass fiber along with new woven glass fiber mat in structural application. Composites were manufactured using the hand layup method using virgin and discorded woven glass fibermats with different fiber weight fractions such as 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40%. Composites were then investigated for the influence of the recycled fiber on mechanical and vibration behavior using appropriate tests. Theoretical models were used to predict the mechanical behavior of the composites. Scanning electron microscopic technique was used to analyze the failure surface morphology of the composite specimen. Results portrayed that the composites with 40 wt% of new woven glass fiber mats exhibited better mechanical strength (tensile and flexural strengths and modules of 243 MPa, 1752 MPa, and 1244 MPa, 946 MPa, impact strength of 12.13 J). The combined effect of new and recycled glass fiber composites exhibited tensile and flexural strength of 211 MPa and 1734 MPa, modulus of 1222 MPa and 925.7 MPa, impact strength of 10.43 J. The natural frequency of both composites was very close to all other volume fractions. The theoretical model also ended up with the same result and the margin of difference between predicted results and experimental results was very minimum.

AbstractA twin‐screw extruder with an ultra‐large length‐to‐diameter (L/D) ratio of 136 was developed and applied in the gel‐spinning process of ultra‐high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). UHMWPE gel fibers with concentrations of 6–18 wt% were produced at barrel temperatures of 150–180°C and screw speeds of 10–40 rpm. The residence time of the UHMWPE gel solution in the extruder increased with the increase of solution concentration and barrel temperature and decreased with the increase of screw speed. The tensile properties and crystallinity of the UHMWPE gel fibers decreased with the increase of solution concentration. Due to the great shear effect of the ultra‐large L/D ratio, the barrel temperature and screw speed could be lower to optimize the structure and tensile properties of UHMWPE fibers. Compared to the extruder with the L/D ratio of 36, the tensile strength, modulus, and elongation at break of the gel fibers prepared by the extruder with the L/D ratio of 136 were increased by 148.8%, 117.6%, and 54.2%, respectively. The crystallinity of the gel fibers was increased by 50.6%. The fiber had a dense and smooth surface with oriented fibrils, which indicates the great ability of the ultra‐large L/D ratio for disentanglement of molecular chains.

AbstractRates of depression and suicide are rising in adolescents, with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) youth experiencing higher rates. We examined the relationship between team sports participation, depression, and suicidal ideation among a representative sample of adolescents (n = 46,537) in the Healthy Kids Colorado Survey. Logistic regression models using team sports participation to predict depression and suicidal ideation for heterosexual; lesbian, gay, bisexual, and questioning (LGBQ); cisgender; and transgender youth demonstrated that team sports participation was associated with reduced likelihood of depression in all groups and reduced likelihood of suicidal ideation in all groups except for LGBQ youth. These findings indicate that LGBTQ youth may experience similar mental health benefits of team sports participation as heterosexual and cisgender youth, supporting the importance of inclusive sports policy and programming.

Published: September 2022

AbstractAlthough federal law has provided guidelines for autism eligibility for special education, school‐based autism assessment and eligibility vary widely across states and identification continues to lag behind national prevalence data. The main role of the school psychologist continues to be conducting evaluations for special education eligibility, and given current barriers, some school psychologists do not feel equipped to make a recommendation for autism eligibility. This article summarizes the barriers school psychologists face when conducting autism assessments in the schools, including systemic barriers, lack of training or professional development, resulting lack of confidence, among others. We conclude by highlighting recommendations for multipronged systemic changes that will improve the capacity of special education teams and specifically support the pivotal role of the school psychologist in conducting autism eligibility evaluations in the schools.
Practice makes proficient: Evaluation of implementation fidelity following COMPASS consultation training
Authors: Ruble Lisa , Ogle Lindsey , McGrew John 
Published: September 2022

AbstractA training package for the Collaborative Model for Promoting Competence and Success (COMPASS), a multilevel consultation and coaching intervention for improved educational outcomes of students with autism, was developed and evaluated. Using a Hybrid Type 3 design with emphasis on implementation and a multidimensional approach to evaluating implementation outcomes, we tested the training package with community‐based consultant trainees (CTs) unfamiliar with COMPASS and evaluated acceptance, appropriateness, feasibility, and fidelity from multiple sources (trainees, teachers, and parents). Results confirm that COMPASS‐naïve CTs can be successfully trained. At least one feedback session was needed to achieve proficiency. Initial fidelity ratings between researchers and CTs were disparate suggesting self‐report may not be adequate. Four feedback opportunities were required to achieve proficiency in writing intervention plans, an activity particularly challenging for CTs. Teachers and parents perceived COMPASS as acceptable, appropriate, and feasible. CTs knowledge of evidence‐based practices (EBPs) increased significantly following training; however, positive attitudes toward EBPs did not. The implementation outcomes suggest that the training package was effective for training CTs; however, additional practice with writing intervention plans is warranted.

AbstractThe low cost and high abundancy of nickel makes it highly attractive for both industrial and academic researchers in the field of polyolefin. However, the development of high performance nickel catalysts for ethylene homo and copolymerization is highly challenging. In this contribution, two novel cationic nickel catalysts with quinone backbone and sterically hindered aryl substituents on phosphine have been synthesized and supported on solid supports to prepare heterogeneous catalysts. The homogeneous catalysts showed high activity and high thermal stability in ethylene polymerization. After heterogenization of these catalysts, all the polymerization parameters (polymerization activity, thermal stability, and polymer molecular weight) were significantly improved. The heterogeneous catalyst can achieve activity of up to 3.26 × 106 g mol−1 h−1, along with polyethylene molecular weight of up to 81.8 × 104 g mol−1. More importantly, these homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts can realize copolymerization of ethylene with a series of polar comonomers such as methyl 10‐undecenoate, 10‐undecenol, and 6‐chloro‐1‐hexene.
