Workshop training to facilitate parental involvement in their children’s mathematics education: parents’ perceptions

This study investigated the effectiveness of workshops on parental involvement in their children’s mathematical education. The study employed a quasi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design. This study involved 76 parents from one senior secondary school in the Kweneng Region, Botswana. The study included three steps for data analysis: thematic content analysis, hypothesis testing, and descriptive statistical analysis. The results showed that the parental involvement level before and after the intervention marked a difference with a significant increase. Parental involvement variables such as parenting style, parental expectations, home rules, parental supervision, communication between parents and children, children’s home mathematics activities, and parental attitude toward school all improved significantly. The findings further indicated that parental involvement in their child's general and mathematical learning can be improved. As a result, the study recommended that all basic education schools reach out to parents through parent education programs that can assist parents in understanding the value of being active in their children’s mathematics education, which will probably affect their education performance positively.

Shared decision-making in long-term care: A systematic review of assessment instruments

This systematic review explored the instruments used to measure Shared Decision Making (SDM) within long-term care (LTC) settings. Relevant publications from the period between January 2000 and October 2022 were searched across five databases. Thirty-six SDM assessment instruments were identified, which encompassed those measuring SDM for LTC recipients/family caregivers and/or healthcare providers. These instruments were either specifically tailored for LTC settings or more broadly applicable across healthcare contexts, including LTC. In terms of psychometric properties of the instruments, internal consistency reliability, content validity, structural validity, and hypothesis testing were commonly tested. The findings of this research can aid health researchers, managers, and scholars in choosing suitable instruments for assessing SDM in specific LTC scenarios, considering factors such as measurement scope, assessment methods, and instrument reliability. Additionally, these findings offer valuable insights for the future development of high-quality SDM assessment instruments in LTC field.

Infrared temperature distribution characteristics and state assessment method of sandstone under tension and compression stress

Abnormalities in infrared radiation temperature (IRT) often accompany the loading In this investigation, stress experiments and splitting tests were conducted on sandstone to investigate the IRT characteristics of sandstone under various loading conditions. The results shows that the Maximum Infrared Radiation Temperature (MAXIRT) increases by up to 5 °C, while in splitting tests, the minimum infrared radiation temperature (MINIRT) decreases by approximately 1.5 °C. Compared to the average infrared radiation temperature (AIRT), MAXIRT is more sensitive to compressive stress, whereas (MINIRT) is more responsive to tensile stress. The correlation between IRT indicators and stress were further analyzed. The findings reveal a positive correlation between IRT and compressive stress. At low stress levels, the correlation coefficient fluctuates between −0.4 and 0.6, generally showing low correlation. As stress increases, the correlation coefficient rises, reaching above 0.8, indicating a high correlation. Tensile stress exhibits a negative correlation, with a consistent trend. Additionally, a statistical analysis of the frequency distribution of IRT under different stress conditions was conducted, followed by hypothesis testing. The results demonstrate that the probability distribution of IRT during loading follows a skewed normal distribution. The changes in skewness can be divided into three stages: initial fluctuation, stable variation, and abrupt failure. Under compressive stress, a right-skewed distribution is observed, with skewness exceeding 3.5 before fracture and reaching above 10 near fracture. Under tensile stress, a left-skewed distribution is noted, with skewness reaching −4.5 near fracture. These findings contribute to the assessment of rock stress states and provide early warning information for predicting rock failure.

Prerequisites of hybridization of university financing as a tool for ensuring sustainability and strategic development

Purpose. To assess the state of budget financing of Ukrainian HEIs, determine their funding structure, and identify prerequisites for developing hybrid financing as a tool for stability and strategic development. Methodology. Dynamic and structural analysis, the Hirschman-Herfindahl index (HHI(DI) and such methods as quantitative, arithmetic mean, limit values, graphic, visualization, and system methods were used in the research process. The practical testing of research hypotheses was carried out on the basis of a comprehensive approach to the financing of HEIs of Ukraine and a panel sample of 35 universities, which takes into account rating indicators, industry and regional aspects. Findings. Transformation processes at various levels are linked to trends such as reduced budget funding, structural changes, staff and student migration, decreased demand for additional services, and military factors, creating prerequisites for hybrid university funding. The article identifies conditions for hybrid financing, highlights negative trends in HEIs budget financing –including systemic underperformance and inflation impacts – and analyzes income diversification in Ukrainian universities using the HHI(DI). Limiting and average values were determined using the quantitative method, which made it possible to classify universities into sustainable (HHI(DI)  0.55) and risky (HHI(DI) > 0.55) ones; tendencies towards a slight diversification of universities’ incomes are revealed; a conceptual model is proposed of hybrid financing of universities to expand their financial autonomy, based on cooperation between university management, stakeholders, and staff core, with the aim of creating value propositions which satisfy the needs of stakeholders and generate cash flows; a new approach to the division of hybrid financing tools into three groups is proposed: passive or image-based, active-intellectual, and passive-innovative ones. This approach is innovative in the development of financial strategies for universities. Originality. New tools for making management decisions aimed at ensuring financial stability and developing financial strategies for universities are proposed. In particular, they include an original approach to the classification of universities into sustainable and risky ones based on the value of the HHI; the conceptual model of hybrid financing of universities, which promotes the expansion of their financial autonomy; the innovative approach to the division of hybrid financing instruments into three categories: passive or image-based, active-intellectual, passive-innovative. Practical value. The study’s results can be used to make management decisions on expanding financial autonomy of universities. The introduction of the conceptual model of hybrid financing will contribute to the diversification of income, increase in financing, as well as ensuring financial stability and strategic development of universities.

Estimands and Cumulative Incidence Function Regression in Clinical Trials: Some New Results on Interpretability and Robustness.

Regression analyses based on transformations of cumulative incidence functions are often adopted when modeling and testing for treatment effects in clinical trial settings involving competing and semi-competing risks. Common frameworks include the Fine-Gray model and models based on direct binomial regression. Using large sample theory we derive the limiting values of treatment effect estimators based on such models when the data are generated according to multiplicative intensity-based models, and show that the estimand is sensitive to several process features. The rejection rates of hypothesis tests based on cumulative incidence function regression models are also examined for null hypotheses of different types, based on which a robustness property is established. In such settings supportive secondary analyses of treatment effects are essential to ensure a full understanding of the nature of treatment effects. An application to a palliative study of individuals with breast cancer metastatic to bone is provided for illustration.

Centralization or decentralization? Power allocation in team innovation management.

Power disparity, as an important form of internal team hierarchy, presents a "double-edged sword effect". To reconcile the inconsistent effects and systematically explore the different mechanisms of power disparity, this study constructs a comprehensive theoretical model based on power functionalism and power conflict theory, with team coordination and team conflict as dual mediators, and power legitimacy as moderator. By collecting valid questionnaires from 76 teams across 27 different types of companies in various regions, statistical analysis and hypothesis testing were conducted on the data. The results conclude that power disparity positively influences team innovation performance through the team coordination path and negatively affects it through the team conflict path. However, under the moderating effect of power legitimacy, the negative effect of the team conflict path is suppressed, and the positive effect of the team coordination path is strengthened, thus ensuring that power disparity has a positive effect on team innovation performance. This study provides a useful reference for designing the power hierarchy within enterprises, and offers profound insights into effective organizational structure and decision-making processes.

Clinical trial protocol for continuous glucose monitoring in critical care at Hospital Clinic of Barcelona (CGM-UCI23).

Hyperglycaemia is common in intensive care units (ICUs), with a prevalence of up to 86.2%, increasing mortality. Technology has evolved towards continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), and its use in ICUs began especially during the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19). Various studies have evaluated the reliability of CGM, indicating that it is safe for use in critically ill patients. The aim of this study was to compare the use of CGM with point-of-care glucose (POC-G) testing in ICU. Specific objectives include evaluating the glycaemic control, the frequency of POC-G measurements, the incidence of hyperglycaemia, hypoglycaemia and morbidity and mortality at 90 days. An experimental, controlled and randomized clinical trial with a single-blind design will be conducted at Hospital Clinic of Barcelona (HCB). A sample size of 376 participants will be recruited and randomly assigned to two groups: an experimental group, where glycaemic management will be based on CGM; and a control group, where glucose will be managed through POC-G testing, with a blinded CGM. The primary variable considered will be time in range (TIR), with secondary outcomes including, time above range (TAR), time below range (TBR), number of POC-G measurements, incidence of hyperglycaemia and hypoglycaemia, and mortality. Hypothesis testing will use the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test to assess data normality, with appropriate statistical tests applied, considering a p-value <.05. The results obtained will help us understand the impact of CGM on critically ill patients. CGM could potentially reduce the workload of nurses and improve the efficiency of decision-making by the ICU team, enabling early identification and treatment of glucose complications, thereby enhancing safety. Patient safety, a reduction in patient fingerstick and a decreased care burden are the criteria that add value to this research.

Towards Human Sensory Augmentation: A Cognitive Neuroscience Framework for Evaluating Integration of New Signals within Perception, Brain Representations, and Subjective Experience

New wearable devices and technologies provide unprecedented scope to augment or substitute human perceptual abilities. However, the flexibility to reorganize brain processing to use novel sensory signals during early sensitive periods in infancy is much less evident at later ages, making integration of new signals into adults’ perception a significant challenge. We believe that an approach informed by cognitive neuroscience is crucial for maximizing the true potential of new sensory technologies. Here, we present a framework for measuring and evaluating the extent to which new signals are integrated within existing structures of perception and experience. As our testbed, we use laboratory tasks in which healthy volunteers learn new, augmented perceptual-motor skills. We describe a suite of measures of (i) perceptual function (psychophysics), (ii) neural representations (fMRI/decoding), and (iii) subjective experience (qualitative interview/micro-phenomenology) targeted at testing hypotheses about how newly learned signals become integrated within perception and experience. As proof of concept, we provide example data showing how this approach allows us to measure changes in perception, neural processing, and subjective experience. We argue that this framework, in concert with targeted approaches to optimizing training and learning, provides the tools needed to develop and optimize new approaches to human sensory augmentation and substitution.

The Impact of Financial and Non-Financial Rewards on Employee Migration Intentions in Lagos Banking Sector

The Nigerian banking sector has been facing a significant exodus of skilled employees in recent times which has continued to threaten the sector's development. However, despite numerous studies to address this phenomenon, fewer empirical studies have explored how financial and non-financial rewards impact the migration intention of employees in the banking sector in Nigeria. This study therefore examines how reward systems including financial and non-financial affect the migration intention of employees in Lagos banking sector. A cross-sectional design with purposive and proportionate sampling was adopted for the study. The purposive sampling was adopted to select eight banks in the Mainland Local Government Area of Lagos, Nigeria while a proportionate sampling was used to sample the respondents to ensure adequate representation across the banks. A structured questionnaire was used for collecting data from a sample size of 99 which was determined from a population of 131 in the selected banks using the Yamane formula. However, only 89 responses were obtained across the selected banks and were then statistically analysed using descriptive statistics for the socio-demographic data. Correlation with multiple regressions was utilised for hypothesis testing at a 5% significance level and the study found that both financial and non-financial rewards significantly affect employees’ migration intention. Therefore, the management of banks should improve on the existing financial reward systems to make them more globally competitive as this would enhance talented employees’ retention and reduce employees’ migration intention in the banks.

Pengaruh Perceived Public Stigma terhadap Sikap Mencari Bantuan Profesional Psikologis pada Mahasiswa

Students are a group that is vulnerable to experiencing mental health problems. This is because they are in a transition period towards adulthood which is one of the most stressful times in human life. However, not all students are able to face all changes in life so that every human being needs a coping to deal with the problems they experience. One of the best coping to do is to seek professional psychological help. In this study, the influence of perceived public stigma to attitudes towards professional help seeking will be tested. This research method is quantitative with a linear regression research design. The subjects in this study were 115 students of Padang State University who had psychological problems. The research data were analyzed using SPSS 25 with a simple linear regression hypothesis test. The results of this study are that there is a significant influence of perceived public stigma on the attitude of seeking professional psychological help (F = 21.573; sig = 0.000) with an influence of 16% (R Square = 0.16).

Investor demand for stocks in Initial Public Offerings and their price behaviour after debut. Evidence from Poland

This article investigates the relationship between investor demand during an IPO and the long-term behaviour of share prices following a company’s stock market debut. Specifically, the study examines the impact of the demand observed during the public offering and the size of the offering on abnormal return rates for a sample of 116 IPOs on the Warsaw Stock Exchange between 2012 and mid-2022. The primary research hypothesis tests whether the medians of abnormal return rates, influenced by these factors, are statistically significant over several time intervals ranging from 3 to 12 months after the debut. The findings confirm that certain information from the completed public offering, particularly the relatively low number of new shares offered, plays a significant role in predicting abnormal changes in share prices during these periods. This research offers valuable insights for investors, emphasising the key factors within the IPO process that can influence the trajectory of share prices following a company’s market debut.

MetaboScope: A statistical toolbox for analyzing 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra from human clinical studies

Abstract Motivation Metabolic phenotyping, using high-resolution spectroscopic molecular fingerprints of biological samples, has demonstrated diagnostic, prognostic, and mechanistic value in clinical studies. However, clinical translation is hindered by the lack of viable workflows and challenges in converting spectral data into usable information. Results MetaboScope is an analytical and statistical workflow for learning, designing and analyzing clinically relevant 1H nuclear magnetic resonance data. It features modular pre-processing pipelines, multivariate modeling tools including principal components analysis (PCA), orthogonal-projection to latent structure discriminant analysis, and biomarker discovery tools (multiblock PCA and statistical spectroscopy). A simulation tool is also provided, allowing users to create synthetic spectra for hypothesis testing and power calculations. Availability and implementation MetaboScope is built as a pipeline where each module accepts the output generated by the previous one. This provides flexibility and simplicity of use, while being straightforward to maintain. The system and its libraries were developed in JavaScript and run as a web app; therefore, all the operations are performed on the local computer, circumventing the need to upload data. The MetaboScope tool is available at https://www.cheminfo.org/flavor/metabolomics/index.html. The code is open-source and can be deployed locally if necessary. Module notes, video tutorials, and clinical spectral datasets are provided for modeling. Supplementary information Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics Advances online.

Effects of nicorandil, isosorbide mononitrate or diltiazem on radial artery grafts after coronary artery bypass grafting: the randomized ASRAB-pilot trial

Abstract Background The optimal chronic oral antispastic medication after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) using radial artery (RA) grafts is controversial. Purpose This pilot trial aimed to preliminarily compare the efficacy and safety of nicorandil, isosorbide mononitrate, or diltiazem in patients who underwent CABG using RA grafts. Methods This was a single-center, randomized, open-label, parallel-group pilot trial. Eligible patients who underwent CABG using RA grafts within 3 days were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive oral doses of nicorandil (15 mg daily), isosorbide mononitrate (50 mg daily), or diltiazem (180 mg daily) for 24 weeks post-CABG. The primary outcomes were RA grafts failure (defined as modified FitzGibbon Grade B, S, or O) at 1- and 24-weeks, assessed by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). The secondary outcomes include major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE, a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and unplanned revascularization) and angina recurrence. Results Among 150 randomized participants, 149 patients (full analysis set, mean age 56.8 years, 13.4% females, 83.9% with acute coronary syndrome, 49.7% with diabetes) with 177 RA grafts completed at least once CCTA assessment, including 50 patients with 64 RA grafts in the nicorandil group, 50 patients with 57 RA grafts in the isosorbide mononitrate group, and 49 patients with 56 RA grafts in the diltiazem group, respectively. (Figure 1). At 1-week post-CABG, the RA graft failure rates were numerically lower with nicorandil vs. diltiazem (19.4% vs. 25.0%, difference: -5.6% [95% CI -20.6% to 9.3%]; P = 0.49) and isosorbide mononitrate vs. diltiazem (18.2% vs. 25.0%, difference: -6.8% [95% CI -21.8% to 8.6%]; P =0.41). Nicorandil vs. isosorbide mononitrate showed similar rates (19.4% vs 18.2%, difference: 1.2% [95% CI −13.3% to 15.2%]; P =0.88). At 24 weeks, a numerically trend indicating a larger reduction in RA graft failure rates between nicorandil vs. diltiazem (16.1% vs 27.8%, difference: -11.7% [95% CI -26.6% to 3.4%]; P =0.17), and isosorbide mononitrate vs. diltiazem (12.5% vs 27.8%, difference: -15.3% [95% CI -29.8% to -0.2%]; P =0.06). Nicorandil vs. isosorbide mononitrate remained similar (16.1% vs 12.5%, difference: 3.6% [95% CI -9.6% to 16.4%]; P =0.59). Per-protocol set analysis results were consistent with full analysis set analysis (Table 1). During the follow-up, 6 patients with MACEs and 7 with angina recurrence were observed (MACE: 2 in nicorandil, 2 in isosorbide mononitrate, and 2 in diltiazem; angina recurrence: 1, 3, and 3 in the respective groups). Conclusions In this underpowered pilot trial, treatment with nicorandil or isosorbide mononitrate showed a numerically considerable but not statistically significant benefit on RA grafts outcome compared to diltiazem up to 24-week post-CABG. Larger hypothesis testing trial is warranted.Figure 1:The study flow diagramFigure 2:Primary outcomes in FAS and PP

The effect of PBL integrated RMS on biological literacy and critical thinking ability of high school students

This study aimed to determine the effect of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) integrated Reading, Mind Mapping, and Sharing (RMS) on biological literacy and critical thinking skills in biotechnology material. This type of research is Quasi-Experimental with pre-test-post-test experiments and a control group design. The researcher conducted the research because most of the students who became respondents considered biotechnology material less attractive, so students' understanding and activeness could have been more optimal in the learning process. The research samples were 72 students of class X MIPA at SMA Negeri 2 Kota Serang, Banten. The research sample was divided into two groups: the experimental group that applied the PBL integrated RMS model and the control group that applied the PBL model. The research instruments used were biological literacy ability tests and critical thinking ability tests. Biological literacy skills were measured using biological literacy-based multiple-choice test instruments, while critical thinking skills were measured using essay test instruments. The hypothesis test used was MANOVA statistical analysis. The results of statistical tests showed a significant effect of PBL integrated with RMS on biological literacy and critical thinking skills on biotechnology material with a significance value of 0.000 &lt; α. Students with an integrated RMS learning model are more effective than those with a PBL learning model, which is indicated by the post-test value being higher than the pre-test value. This research contributes to the field of biology education by showing that the PBL learning model integrated with RMS can be an effective alternative learning model to improve students' biological literacy and critical thinking skills. The findings of this study are expected to be useful for biology teachers

The Study of Characteristics of Successful Asnafpreneurs in Southern Malaysia

The study explores a characteristic of successful asnafpreneurs to address the number of registered asnafpreneurs seeking aid more than the number of successful asnafpreneurs produced in Southern Malaysia. However, the current industry can still not completely produce an independent business owner based on the Asnaf title. The study aims to determine successful entrepreneurs' internal and external characteristics in Southern Malaysia. A quantitative method was used in this study. Respondents were chosen using the non-probability sampling method. SPSS software was used for data analysis. Descriptive analysis (frequency and percentage) and hypothesis testing (chi-square test, correlation, and regression) were utilized to solve the research topic. Study finds that internal factors and external factors play an important role in asnafpreneurs success. Chi-square Test analysis revealed that Pearson's significant value was at the 0.00 level. This indicates that it is less than 0.05 at this level. This test successfully rejects H0, which means there is no correlation between internal factors with a successful characteristic of asnafpreneur and there is no correlation between external factors with a successful characteristic of asnafpreneur. Other authors may study the other geography parts and new challenges for asnafpreneurs to succeed in the future.
