Measuring the gap between elicited and revealed risk for investors: An empirical study

AbstractFinancial advisors use questionnaires and discussions with clients to determine investment goals, elicit risk preference and tolerance and establish a suitable portfolio allocation for different risk categories. Financial institutions assign risk ratings to their financial products. Advisors use these ratings to categorize products into the same risk categories used for portfolio allocation. Subsequently, clients select a portfolio of assets whose risk profile we call revealed risk. This paper proposes a novel methodology for comparing an individual's elicited and revealed risk. We propose using Value‐at‐Risk to measure elicited and revealed risk and the discrepancy between them, showing whether clients are over‐risked or under‐risked. We demonstrate the methodology using a dataset from a Canadian private financial dealer. We find that elicited risk is consistently higher than revealed risk–advisors build a safety buffer into their recommendations–and elicited risk varies with respect to demographic features and trading behaviors in expected ways–investors are receiving sound advice. This risk discrepancy could be used, for example, to gauge the quality of financial advice an individual is receiving, or it could be used to help advisors communicate inconsistencies between client trading actions and client goals. Our methodology falls into the interest realms of advisors, regulators, and dealerships.

A comprehensive analysis of consumer decisions on Twitter dataset using machine learning algorithms

An exponential growth posting on the web about the product reviews on social media, there has been a great deal of examination being done on sorting out the purchasing behaviors of the client. This paper depends on utilizing twitter for sentiment analysis to comprehend the customer purchasing behavior. There has been a significant increase in e-commerce, particularly in persons purchasing products on the internet. As a result, it becomes a fertile hotspot for opinion analysis and belief mining. In this investigation, we look at the problem of recognizing and anticipating a client's purchase goal for an item. The sentiment analysis helps to arrive at a more indisputable outcome. In this study, the support vector machine, naive Bayes, and logistic regression methods are investigated for understanding the customer's sentiment or opinion on a specific product. These strategies have been demonstrated to be genuinely for making predictions using the analysis models which examine the client's conclusion/sentiment the most precisely. The exactness for each machine learning algorithm will be analyzed and the calculation which is the most precise would be viewed as ideal.

Occupational Therapy Practice Guidelines for Adults With Multiple Sclerosis

Occupational therapy practitioners play an important role in addressing the occupational performance and participation needs of adults with multiple sclerosis (MS) and their caregivers. This Practice Guideline aims to help occupational therapy practitioners, as well as the people who manage, reimburse, or set policy regarding occupational therapy services, understand occupational therapy's role in providing services to adults with MS and their caregivers. This guideline can also serve as a reference for health care professionals, health care managers, educators, regulators, third-party payers, managed care organizations, and researchers. We examined, synthesized, and integrated the results of four systematic reviews into clinical recommendations. Three systematic reviews specified occupational domains as outcomes of interest, and one focused on interventions for caregivers of people with MS. Twenty-one articles from the systematic reviews with strong or moderate strength of evidence served as the basis for the clinical recommendations. Four interventions benefited participation in the domains of activities of daily living or sleep. Two interventions improved participation in the domain of instrumental activities of daily living. One intervention improved work participation. Two interventions benefited caregivers and the quality of the relationship between the caregiver and person with MS. Other potentially appropriate interventions or areas to address on the basis of existing or emerging evidence are discussed in the Limitations: Gaps in the Evidence and Conclusions sections. What This Article Adds: This Practice Guideline provides a summary and application of the current evidence supporting occupational therapy intervention for adults with MS. It includes case examples and decision-making algorithms to support occupational therapy practitioners in addressing client goals.

Organisational change to integrate self-management into specialised mental health services: Creating collaborative spaces.

Self-management support for schizophrenia has become expected practice leaving organisations to find ways for feasible implementation. Self-management support involves a foundational cultural shift for traditional disease-based services, new ways of clients-providers working together, coupled with delivering a portfolio of tools and techniques. A new model of self-management support embedded into traditional case management services, called SET for Health (Self-management Engaging Together for Health),was designed and tailored to make such services meaningfully accessible to clients of a tertiary care centre. This paper describes the proof of concept demonstration efforts, the successes/challenges, and initial organisational changes. An integrated knowledge translation approach was selected as a means to foster organisational change grounded in users' daily realities. Piloting the model in two community case management programmes, we asked two questions: Can a model of self-management support be embedded in existing case management and delivered within routine specialised mental health services? What organisational changes support implementation? Fifty-one clients were enroled. Indicators of feasible delivery included 72.5% completion of self-management plans in a diverse sample, exceeding the 44% set minimum; and an attrition rate of 21.6%, less than 51% set maximum. Through an iterative evaluation process, the innovation evolved to a targeted hybrid approach revolving around client goals and a core set of co-created reference tools, supplemental tools and resources. Operationalisation by use of tools was implemented to create spaces for client-provider collaborations. Monitoring of organisational changes identified realignment of practices. Changes were made to procedures and operations to further spread and sustain the model. This study demonstrated how self-management support can be implemented, within existing resources, for routine delivery of specialised services for individuals living with schizophrenia. The model holds promise as a hybrid option for supporting clients to manage their own health and wellness.

In situ thermal remediation application in South Africa: a case study incorporating sustainable remediation principles

This paper presents a case study of the first instance in South Africa where in situ thermal remediation (ISTR) was undertaken. The project, completed during 2020 and 2021, is located in Cape Town. The ‘site’ is a former printing facility located in a multistorey building adjacent to an upgradient service station. Petroleum hydrocarbon impacts, identified in subsurface soil and groundwater, originated from leaking underground fuel storage tanks at this service station. Following a sustainability-based options appraisal, ISTR with steam used as the heating source was selected as the most appropriate remedial technology. Based on Environmental Resources Management's (ERM's) international and local expertise, this solution was implemented after due consideration of the site's geological characteristics, the properties of the contaminants of concern and the client's goals of rapidly achieving a risk-based remediation solution. This solution was enhanced by the identification and incorporation, where feasible, of sustainable management practices (SMPs) in the system design and operational phases. Particular focus was placed on resource consumption and the use of alternative power sources, such as reduction of water and energy and the use of biofuel. Other SMPs incorporated into the system's operational phase included temperature tracking to optimize steam usage, which has been successfully applied by ERM at previously completed ISTR sites in other countries. Key lessons learnt from the ISTR application at this site were that the energy source and use, combined with the optimization of water consumption, could be more widely applied to improve the sustainability of ISTR, not only in South Africa but also in other sites worldwide.

Canine-Assisted Interventions and the Relevance of Welfare Assessments for Human Health, and Transmission of Zoonosis: A Literature Review.

CAIs (canine-assisted interventions) include “canine-assisted therapy” in which a therapist sets client-oriented goals, 'canine-assisted activities' with recreational goals for clients, and 'canine-assisted education/learning' in which teachers or coaches create learning goals for students or clients. CAIs vary in nearly every way; their only common trait is the involvement of dogs to respond to human need. However, the benefits of involving dogs are highly dependent on the animal's health and behavior. A dog exhibiting negative behavior or an unwell dog might pose a risk, especially for CAI target groups, specifically individuals with immunosuppression, chronic illness, children, elderly, etc. Therefore, positive animal welfare as preventative medicine to avoid incidents or transmission of zoonosis is an attractive hypothesis, with implications for human and animal, health and well-being. This review aims to summarize the current published knowledge regarding different aspects of welfare in CAIs and to discuss their relevance in the light of health and safety in CAI participants. As method for this study, a literature search was conducted (2001–2022) using the Prisma method, describing issues of dog welfare as defined in the Welfare Quality® approach. This welfare assessment tool includes 4 categories related to behavior, health, management, and environment; it was, therefore, applicable to CAIs. Results indicate that dogs working in CAIs are required to cope with diverse variables that can jeopardize their welfare. In conclusion, we propose regular welfare assessments for dogs in CAIs, which would also protect the quality of the CAI sessions and the clients' safety and well-being.

Collaborative Documentation: Therapist Experiences in Jointly Writing Progress Notes

Systemic therapy is predicated on a collaborative relationship between therapist and client. This joint pursuit of client goals occurs in the therapy room but may dissolve once the therapist begins filling out any necessary paperwork (e.g., progress notes, biopsychosocial evaluations, or assessments). Collaborative documentation is one means of bringing forth the client's voice during the session and for documentation. Most therapists write progress notes on their own once the session has ended; however, this leads to a privileging of the therapist's voice in the document rather than the client's voice. This article explores collaborative documentation and provides the voices of doctoral student-therapists as they experienced their initial forays into this process. We provide an explanation of how we believe collaborative documentation helped privilege the client's voice, decreased the power imbalance between therapist and client, and provided ideas as to the implementation and use of joint progress note development.

Measuring the diverse characteristics of county adult protective services programs

ABSTRACT Adult protective services (APS) programs vary markedly, yet few studies have quantified this diversity. In 2020, a survey of Ohio’s 85 county-administered APS programs incorporated subsequent feedback from staff and described the programs in a systematic manner. This process resulted in a 100% response rate and illustrated an efficient approach to measuring organizational characteristics (e.g., whether any staff are mostly dedicated to APS), resources (e.g., access to multidisciplinary teams), and practices (e.g., how often staff create a plan to meet client goals). The prevalence of many factors differed by the number of older adults the program served. For instance, 75% of programs in large counties had regular opportunities to share complex cases with a multidisciplinary team, compared to 28% of programs in small counties. Understanding the diverse characteristics of APS programs – and how to measure them – can help agencies guide quality improvement efforts and the dissemination of innovations.

Occupational Therapy Practice Guidelines for People With Parkinson's Disease.

Occupational therapy practitioners address the occupational performance and participation needs of people with Parkinson's disease (PD) and their care partners. This Practice Guideline is informed by systematic reviews on the use of occupational therapy interventions to promote participation in occupations for people with PD and to facilitate their caregivers' participation in the caregiver role. This guideline is meant to support practitioners' clinical decision making when working with people with PD and their care partners. We examined and synthesized the results of four systematic reviews and integrated those results into clinical recommendations for practice. Thirty-three articles from the systematic reviews served as the basis for the clinical recommendations in this Practice Guideline. Clinical recommendations are provided for interventions that have strong or moderate supporting evidence. Multidisciplinary, tailored, goal-oriented intervention is recommended for people with PD. Various forms of exercise can be used to improve activities of daily living and instrumental activities of daily living performance and social participation, and interventions should incorporate health behavior change techniques to support adequate physical activity levels in daily life. Mindfulness meditation and exercise can be used to support sleep, and task-oriented training can be used to improve performance of specific tasks. Occupational therapy practitioners should incorporate self-management, coaching, compensatory, cognitive-behavioral, and other approaches into multicomponent treatment plans depending on the client's needs and goals. Additional potentially appropriate intervention approaches or areas to address are discussed on the basis of existing or emerging evidence and expert opinion. What This Article Adds: This Practice Guideline provides a summary and applications of the current evidence supporting occupational therapy intervention for people with PD. It includes case examples and suggested decision-making algorithms to support practitioners in addressing client goals.

Using the Stay Strong App for the Well-being of Indigenous Australian Prisoners: Feasibility Study.

BackgroundThe gap between mental health needs and resources for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, the Indigenous people of Australia, is most marked in the prison population. Indigenous people are overrepresented in Australian prisons. In prison, this group experiences mental disorders to a greater degree than non-Indigenous prisoners. This group has also been found to experience mental disorder at a higher rate than Indigenous people in the community. In addition to pre-existing determinants of poor mental health, these high prevalence rates may reflect poor engagement in mainstream interventions or the efficacy of available interventions. In community populations, the use of digital mental health resources may help to increase access to well-being support. However, culturally appropriate digital tools have not been available to Indigenous people in prisons. The absence of feasibility and efficacy studies of these tools needs to be addressed.ObjectiveThe aim of this study is to determine the feasibility of the Stay Strong app as a digital well-being and mental health tool for use by Indigenous people in prison.MethodsDual government agency (health and corrective services) precondition requirements of implementation were identified and resolved. This was essential given that the Stay Strong app was to be delivered by an external health agency to Indigenous prisoners. Then, acceptability at a practice level was tested using postuse qualitative interviews with clients and practitioners of the Indigenous Mental Health Intervention Program. All Indigenous Mental Health Intervention Program practitioners (10/37, 27%) and client participants who had completed their second follow-up (review of the Stay Strong app; 27/37, 73%) during the study period were invited to participate.ResultsOwing to the innovative nature of this project, identifying and resolving the precondition requirements of implementation was challenging but provided support for the implementation of the app in practice. Acceptability of the app by clients and practitioners at a practice level was demonstrated, with nine themes emerging across the interviews: satisfaction with the current Stay Strong app, supported client goal setting, increased client self-insight, improved client empowerment, cultural appropriateness, enhanced engagement, ease of use, problems with using an Android emulator, and recommendations to improve personalization.ConclusionsThe Stay Strong Custody Project is a pioneering example of digital mental health tools being implemented within Australian prisons. Using the app within high-security prison settings was found to be feasible at both strategic and practice levels. Feedback from both clients and practitioners supported the use of the app as a culturally safe digital mental health and well-being tool for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in prison.

Embracing technological possibilities in the telehealth delivery of interactive music therapy

ABSTRACT Introduction Given how many music therapists have shifted their practice to telehealth in accordance with COVID-19 public safety precautions, it is essential for clinicians not only to adjust to the virtual platform, but to embrace the therapeutic potential of technological tools. Just as music is considered a therapeutic agent in music therapy sessions, the authors assert that technology may also be conceptualized and utilized as a means of enhancing therapeutic outcomes. Method Referencing an interactive music therapy protocol adapted for telehealth as part of a pain management study, the authors examine ways in which different aspects of telehealth technology can be used by music therapists to support client goals and bolster the therapeutic relationship. Generalized clinical examples drawn from virtual sessions are incorporated to demonstrate the unique therapeutic possibilities for client agency, client self-efficacy, and the client-therapist relationship afforded by the telehealth platform. Results Among the possibilities afforded by telehealth are enriched opportunities for client choice, reinforcement of learning and implementing new transferrable skills, and enhancing the therapeutic relationship through collaborative troubleshooting and adapted interactive music experiences. Discussion Specific recommendations for music therapists are included to advance the conversation around best practices regarding telehealth. The authors discuss actionable items for music therapists such as utilizing screen-sharing options to enhance musical interactions, validating and exploring clients’ use of technology for self-disclosure, and other strategies for harnessing the therapeutic potential of technology in virtual music therapy sessions.

Resistance Training to Failure: A Science-to-Practice Guide for the Fitness Professional

Apply It! • In the case of both low- and high-intensity resistance training (RT), fitness professionals should teach their clients to lift near failure without achieving complete momentary muscular failure (MMF), as indicated by a ratings of perceived exertion value of 8 to 9 or repetitions in reserve value of 1 to 2. • MMF and volitional interruption (VI) elicit comparable improvements in strength and hypertrophy at high intensities (75% to 85% 1RM), so both may be integrated into a single training session (i.e., 4 sets of bench press, first three performed to VI, final set to MMF). • Program failure training to align with your client's goals — performing RT sets to failure — may be more effective for hypertrophy, whereas nonfailure sets may be more beneficial for power.

Stuttering and Autism Spectrum Disorders: Assessment and Treatment.

Dual diagnoses of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) and stuttering have been reported in the literature, but little is known about how often they co-occur, the best practices for assessment, and even less about intervention. In this article, we gathered the data available on these issues and compiled and analyzed the sparse findings to offer suggestions for assessment and treatment. This article begins with a glossary of terms to promote consistency and understanding. Next, suggestions for assessment are provided along with a work sheet to document fluency breakdowns and monitor change. Suggestions for language and cognitive issues are also provided with a sample worksheet. Finally, an outline and explanation of stuttering/fluency goals for clients with these dual diagnoses are included. Case studies of two individuals who stutter and are diagnosed with ASD are presented to provide exemplars of how to assess and treat individuals with these dual diagnoses. Caveats on how to work with individuals with ASD and fluency disorders, based on our current understanding, are presented in the conclusion.

The acceptability of non-abstinent treatment goals among clinical social workers in the United States

ABSTRACT Research on acceptability of non-abstinence goals has focused primarily on addiction counsellors and lacks representation of clinical social workers (SWs). We examined whether acceptability of non-abstinence varied as a function of a client’s severity of substance use disorder (SUD) diagnosis (severe vs. moderate), finality of an outcome goal (intermediate vs. final), and type of substance (e.g. alcohol, cannabis) among clinical SWs in the US (United States). We surveyed a geographically representative sample of 309 SWs (Mean age = 48.9; Female = 76%; Mean years practicing = 14.6). For tobacco, alcohol and cannabis use, most SWs (51%–84%) rated non-abstinence as an acceptable goal regardless of finality of the outcome goal for clients with a moderate SUD; but smaller proportions rated non-abstinence acceptable for clients with severe SUD regardless of drug type or finality of the goal. Higher ratings of acceptability of non-abstinence were significantly associated with younger age and lower drug use stigma. Supporting clients who pursue non-abstinence is consistent with the values of the Social Work (SW) profession (e.g. self-determination, social justice, dignity/self-worth, importance/centrality of human relationships). Thus, SW education and training programmes should bolster understanding SUD recovery can take multiple pathways, should be self-directed and empowering, and may be defined in terms of improved health and wellness.

Development and evaluation of a new model for person-centred goal setting using practice development and appreciative inquiry approaches in a rehabilitation unit

Background: This article explores the use of a mixed-methods participatory approach to bring about transformative change to goal setting in an 18-bed, subacute rehabilitation unit in New South Wales. Aim: To use a blended approach underpinned by practice development and appreciative inquiry approaches, to develop and evaluate a model of person-centred goal setting for rehabilitation clients. Methods: Evaluative methods were co-designed and co-agreed by members of the rehabilitation team, based on what the team hoped to achieve in terms of establishing goals for clients in their care and what this meant to clients and each other. Data sources included team discussions, semi-structured interviews with individual team members and clients, a survey and stories using emotional touchpoints. Interpretation of the data involved content analysis for generation of themes and the use of Statistical Package for Social Science software for analysis of the survey. Results: Nine themes emerged. Clients highlighted: barriers to goal achievement; incorporation of goals into daily care; goal achievement; and a sense of purpose. The rehabilitation team highlighted: becoming person-centred; their role in goal setting; and barriers to establishing goals. The survey responses showed the team used person-centred approaches to achieve person-centred goals. Conclusion: Changes to goal setting allowed staff to feel person-centred in their care delivery and gave them the satisfaction of knowing they were doing something meaningful for those in their care. There was strong agreement that a unified team approach to goal setting was key to client satisfaction and achievement of the goals. Clients felt valued and included in making decisions surrounding their care. Implications for practice: • Using the practice development principle of developing collaborative partnerships among healthcare teams leads to greater involvement of clients in their care • Involving clients in goal setting leads to greater success and improved client satisfaction • Appreciative inquiry and practice development approaches are effective in developing partnerships between team members • Staff who treat clients with dignity and respect improve participation in goal setting by the clients • Creating a space in which the emotional needs of clients can be heard and acted on is crucial for success in goal achievement • Appreciative inquiry generates a greater appreciation and understanding of how to deliver person-centred care

Setting meaningful goals in rehabilitation: A qualitative study on the experiences of clients and clinicians in working with a practical tool

Objective To evaluate the experience of clients and clinicians in working with a tool to help set goals that are personally meaningful to rehabilitation clients. Design We have applied the tool in the outpatient rehabilitation setting. Clients’ and clinicians’ experiences in working with the tool were evaluated in individual, semi-structured interviews and focus group interviews, respectively. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data. Setting A university medical center and a rehabilitation center. Subjects Clients with a first-time stroke (n = 8) or multiple sclerosis (n = 10), and clinicians (n = 38). Intervention The tool to help set meaningful goals consisted of a session (i) to explore the client's fundamental beliefs, goals and attitudes and (ii) to identify a meaningful overall rehabilitation goal. The results of that session were used by the multidisciplinary rehabilitation team (iii) to help the client to set specific rehabilitation goals that served to achieve the meaningful overall rehabilitation goal. Results Both clients and clinicians reported that the tool helped to set a meaningful overall rehabilitation goal and specific goals that became meaningful as they served to achieve the overall goal. This contributed to clients’ intrinsic rehabilitation motivation. In some clients, the meaningfulness of the rehabilitation goals facilitated the process of behavior change. Both clients and clinicians made suggestions on how the tool could be further improved. Conclusion In the opinion of both clients and clinicians, the tool does indeed result in goal setting that is personally meaningful. Further development, implementation and evaluation of the tool is warranted.

Rehabilitation Evidence-Based Decision-Making: The READ Model.

Evidence-based practice is the foundation of rehabilitation for maximizing client outcomes. However, an unacceptably high number of ineffective or outdated interventions are still implemented, leading to sub-optimal outcomes for clients. This paper proposes the Rehabilitation Evidence bAsed Decision-Making (READ) Model, a decision-making algorithm for evidence-based decision-making in rehabilitation settings. The READ Model outlines a step-by-step layered process for healthcare professionals to collaboratively set goals, and to select appropriate interventions. The READ Model acknowledges the important multi-layered contributions of client's preferences and values, family supports available, and external environmental factors such as funding, availability of services and access. Healthcare professionals can apply the READ Model to choose interventions that are evidence-based, with an appropriate mode, dose, and with regular review, in order to achieve client's goals. Two case studies are used to demonstrate application of the READ Model: cerebral palsy and autism spectrum disorder. The READ Model applies the four central principles of evidence-based practice and can be applied across multiple rehabilitation settings.

Greater Sun Salutation Frequency and Standing Time Predict Increased Rate of Perceived Exertion across Multiple Yoga Styles: A Cross-sectional Yoga Instructor Survey

<h3>Research Objectives</h3> To investigate the relationship between yoga elements and characteristics across multiple yoga styles, including mixed yoga styles, and exertion levels estimated by yoga instructors (YIs) using the 10-point OMNI perceived exertion scale (RPE). <h3>Design</h3> We used a cross-sectional design. <h3>Setting</h3> YIs completed this web-based questionnaire on personal computers. <h3>Participants</h3> 375 YIs from the Northeastern US completed this study. <h3>Interventions</h3> Participants completed a customized, 57-item web-based survey that included questions regarding client exertion levels, yoga styles, practice elements, and other characteristics when teaching yoga. <h3>Main Outcome Measures</h3> The independent variable was the average exertion level that YIs felt their participants experienced in a typical yoga class using a RPE scale. In our analyses this variable was collapsed into three categories: low intensity (1- 4), moderate intensity (5-7), and high intensity (8-9). <h3>Results</h3> Our response rate was 46%. YIs identified greater than eight different styles of yoga that they used in classes with 87% of them using more than one style of yoga/class. Elements of yoga were directly related to exertion level estimated by YIs: time spent in standing/class (rspearman = 0.36, p < 0.001), the frequency of sun salutations performed/class (rspearman = 0.27, p < 0.001) and time performing vinyasa/class (rspearman = 0.22, p = 0.001). We found that estimated RPE reported by YIs was inversely related (rspearman = -0.16, p = 0.004) to the non-performance of sun salutation. An ordinal logistic regression model that included the above variables revealed statistical significance: Χ-squared (4) = 29.411, p = 0.001. Only time spent in standing (p = 0.007) and frequency of performing sun salutation (p = 0.006) during a yoga class were significant predictors of estimated RPE. <h3>Conclusions</h3> If improved cardiorespiratory fitness is the client's goal and yoga is their exercise preference, our findings suggest that health care providers and clients should seek yoga classes, regardless of yoga style, where YIs spend greater time standing and perform a higher frequency of sun salutation sequences. <h3>Author(s) Disclosures</h3> There are no known conflicts of interest to declare by the authors.

Impact of using Celebrity and Non-Celebrity in an Advertisement on Consumer Purchase Behavior in Cosmetics Category

In the current time of data blast and media impact, promotions assume a significant part in changing insight or considering buyer. Celebrities have been utilized for a wide assortment of cosmetics brands. There is restricted investigation on buyer impression of celebrity versus non-celebrity for the cosmetics items. Advertisers use superstar support to help in simple brand review particularly during buying circumstances. Mainstream big names like cricketers and film stars are considered as god by their sweethearts, however it is fundamental for advertisers to build up the connection between cosmetics item and superstar by thinking about the kind of cosmetics item. The work of individuals who partner with promotion office to sort out which kind of and which medium is the awesome the most plausible for their image. Organization needs to arrive at expected advantages of endorsers either big name or average person to guarantee that they are not in clash with an association's worth framework or liable to produce contrary exposure. The motivation behind this paper is to study the factors like credibility, expertise, attractiveness, decision making behavior to study impact of celebrity and non-celebrity endorsers in cosmetics commercials on buying goals of clients.
