The engagement of tertiary students with an online mental health intervention during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic: A feasibility study

BackgroundWe discuss the feasibility of a brief, online mental health promotion programme for tertiary students and establish recommendations for future programmes.MethodsThe programme ‘Student Elevenses’ was delivered at a tertiary education institution. ‘Student Elevenses’ aimed to promote student wellbeing during the coronavirus disease 2019 crisis, comprised of 10–15-min daily online micro-interventions targeting six lifestyle areas for wellbeing, and was delivered via video conference. Upon programme completion, all students were invited to complete barriers to engagement survey, irrespective of whether they had attended or heard of the programme. Descriptive statistics were calculated for demographics, as well as feasibility and acceptability outcomes including recruitment rates, attendance rates and reported barriers to attendance. Open-ended questions were coded for themes.ResultsLess than 1% of those who consented to participate actually attended the programme, with attendance ranging from 2 to 17 participants. Participants were predominantly female (68%), domestic students (81%) and had a mean age of 29.5 years. The barriers students reported included fixed time, online format, a belief programme would not be helpful, preference for existing supports and perceived impacts of coronavirus disease 2019. Students recommended embedding support within policies/teaching, offering a range of supports and involving students in design.ConclusionBarriers to mental health promotion via telehealth should be considered to promote accessibility and acceptability for tertiary students. Future programmes should consider reaching students through mandatory activities (e.g. lectures, tutorials) and should include student consultation and co-design to support the development of programmes that meet student needs and preferences.

Joint-Activities Generation among Household Members using a Latent Class Model

Individuals’ decision to include an activity in their daily agendas is based on their needs. They take decisions of activity participation, considering the activities and schedules of other household members. This results in activities that involve the joint participation of household members. Limited modelling research is available on the notion of the generation process of joint activities of household members. Besides, the time span for most of the operational models is a single day. The current paper’s focus is on modelling joint-activity generation where the time span is based on multiple days (one week). We used a latent class model (LCM) and estimated it using the data from the National Travel Survey (NTS (UK)) for the years 2013-14. On a given day, it is assumed that the individual includes an activity (that may be joint activity) in his agenda based on his need. The model predicts the probability of alternatives for an individual. Each alternative represents a series of binary outcomes (i.e. 1 or 0) in relation to the generation of a specific type of joint activity for every single day of the week. Four latent classes are identified based on model-fit parameters: frequent joint-activity performer, weekdays joint-activity performer, non-frequent joint-activity performer, and weekend joint-activity performer. The results show that both household and individual attributes impact the individual’s weekly joint activities generation. The individual’s economic status (i.e. full-time worker, part-time worker, etc.), available time window after mandatory activities, number of household members and life cycle stage (structure of the household, i.e. single-parent family etc.) affect which latent class the individual belongs to. Future research is focused on estimating the number of tours, and travel parties involve in joint activity models. It also focuses on integrating the model in some functional activity-based model.

Reliability and validity of a satisfaction questionnaire on virtual education in the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic era aimed at cardiology faculty members.

BACKGROUND:In the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic era, clinical programs and mandatory hands-on activities have been supplanted by remote teaching to maintain the fundamental capabilities of medical training and to furnish medical students with quality education. Nonetheless, the satisfaction of faculty members with this training method in the current pandemic has yet to be assessed. The aim of this study was to design a Persian questionnaire with appropriate validity and reliability on cardiology professors’ satisfaction level with virtual education.MATERIALS AND METHODS:In this cross-sectional study, a questionnaire was devised drawing upon scientific sources and Iranian medical educators’ expertise. Seventeen faculty members in various specialties evaluated the questionnaire concerning face and content validity. Content validity was assessed through the calculation of the content validity ratio (CVR) (values >0.62 were considered acceptable) and the content validity index (CVI) (values >0.79 were considered acceptable), construct validity was evaluated through principal component factor analysis by the Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin (KMO) statistic and Bartlett's sphericity test, internal reliability was measured through the calculation of Cronbach's alpha coefficient, and consistency was appraised through the use of test-retest reliability at two different time points.RESULTS:The questionnaire had a reliability rate of 95%, indicating high internal validity. Concerning test-retest reliability, the intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.96 (P < 0.001), demonstrating relatively good stability. The CVI was 0.81, and the CVR was 0.85. The KMO measure of sampling adequacy was 0.954, indicating the acceptability of the degree of common variance among the all items.CONCLUSIONS:This Persian questionnaire on virtual education aimed at cardiology faculty members in the current pandemic with its low question count and appropriate domains had high reliability and validity. By knowing the level of professors’ satisfaction with the new method of education, it is possible to take steps to better provide specialized medical education to cardiology residents.

Panorama of teaching on older adults or aging in undergraduate nutrition programs at Brazilian Higher Education Institutions

Objective: This study aimed to present an overview of teaching about older adults or aging in undergraduate nutrition programs of higher education institutions (HEIs) in Brazil. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with data obtained from HEI websites in 2018. Results: Most of the 527 analyzed HEIs were private institutions (88.05%). Courses related to older adults/aging were offered by 63.98% of the HEIs; 58.04% included shared content (not only involving older adults), 76.15% were offered from the fifth to the eighth semester, 53.19% were theoretical, 61.51% had a workload ≥ 60 hours/semester, and 92.16% were mandatory pedagogical activities. Internships involving older adults (one or more) were observed only in 4.65% of the programs. Conclusions: Approximately one-third of Brazilian HEIs do not offer courses on older adults or aging in their undergraduate nutrition programs. However, population aging, with its inherent demands, is a reality in Brazil and in the world. Further studies are suggested to expand the reflection and contribute to a more qualified training of nutritionists for the care of older adults.

A Conceptual Framework for Industrial Digital Transformation in the COVID-19 Pandemic Era

Manufacturing has been hugely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, with many critical global value chains either halted or seriously interrupted. Most interactions with customers and employees have to take place in a contactless or virtual way. As such, digital operation is the way to remain in business through mandatory shutdowns and restricted activity. To that end, this paper presents a literature review on the acceleration of the digital transformation triggered by COVID-19 as a catalyst in the utilization of Industry 4.0 technologies. Furthermore, a conceptual framework for digital transformation and Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) business models change is proposed.

GENETIC FOUNDATIONS OF THE INDIVIDUAL’S MUSICAL ABILITIES DEVELOPMENT

The article presents an overview of available foreign publications on the genetics of musicality, which is a new direction of modern science (see list of references). It is emphasized that national psychologists define the following components of musicality structure: emotional response to music as its center; the sense of rhythm; the sense of mode, and musical auditory perceptions. At the same time, foreign scholars consider musical pitch, the sense of rhythm, and the ability to experience the pleasure of music as the criteria of musicality. Foreign researchers have linked 36 genes and 7 chromosome regions with those traits. Thus, the genes AVPR1, GALM, GATA2, PCDH7, SLC6A4, and chromosome regions 4q22, 4q23, and 8q13-21 with still unidentified genes correlate most closely with musicality (Szyfter &amp; Witt, 2020). Among the above-mentioned genes, genes GATA2 and PCDH7 are involved in the auditory system development and functioning. Genes SLC6A4, and AVPR1 are responsible for getting pleasure from music, and GALM conducts carbohydrate metabolism. According to Tan, McPherson, Peretz, Berkovic &amp; Wilson, the standard expression of TRPA1 (8q21.11) provides absolute pitch and a sense of rhythm (2014). However, absolute pitch is typical only for 1-2% of professional musicians, which gives reason to doubt it is necessary to achieve a musical career (Jobling, 2014).&#x0D; The authors suggest that further research on the genetics of musicality should be based on the technology of broad genome associations research. Its value is not determined by the genes involved in musicality identification but by distinguishing the minor structural variations in the DNA molecule. These variations can alter the functioning of relevant genes in a wide range and, thus, vary the level of general musicality or special musical abilities. The identified set of genetic variations will serve as a marker for early diagnosis of musically-gifted children to ensure their successful education, upbringing, and development in the process of mandatory and regular musical and practical activities.

The impact of an implementation intervention that increased school's delivery of a mandatory physical activity policy on student outcomes: A cluster-randomised controlled trial

ObjectivesAssess the impact of an implementation intervention on student's physical activity, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and on-task behaviour. DesignA cluster-randomised controlled trial. MethodsFollowing baseline 61 eligible schools were randomised to a 12-month, implementation intervention to increase teacher scheduling of physical activity, or a waitlist control. Whole school-day and class-time physical activity of students from grades 2 and 3 (~ages 7 to 9) were measured via wrist-worn accelerometers and included: moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, light physical activity, sedentary behaviour and activity counts per minute. Children's health related quality of life (HRQoL) and out-of-school-hours physical activity was measured via parent-proxy surveys. Class level on-task behaviour was measured via teacher self-report surveys. Student and teacher obtained outcomes were measured at baseline and 12-month follow-up. Parent reported outcomes were measured at 12-month follow-up. Linear mixed models compared between group differences in outcomes. Differential effects by sex were explored for student and parent reported outcomes. ResultsData from 2485 students, 1220 parents and >500 teachers were analysed. There was no statistically significant between group differences in any of the outcomes, including accelerometer measured physical activity, out-of-school-hours physical activity, HRQoL, and on-task behaviour. A statistically significant differential effect by sex was found for sedentary behaviour across the whole school day (3.16 min, 95% CI: 0.19, 6.13; p = 0.028), with females illustrating a greater difference between groups than males. ConclusionsOnly negligible effects on student physical activity were found. Additional strategies including improving the quality of teacher's delivery of physical activity may be required to enhance effects.

Impact of compulsory participation of medical students in a multiuser online game to learn radiological anatomy and radiological signs within the virtual world Second Life.

Competitive game-based learning within Second Life enables effective teaching of basic radiological anatomy and radiological signs to medical students, with good acceptance and results when students participate voluntarily, but unknown in a compulsory context. The objectives of this study were to reproduce a competitive online game based on self-guided presentations and multiple-choice tests in a mandatory format, to evaluate its development and student perceptions compared to a voluntary edition in 2015 (N = 90). In 2016 and 2017, respectively, 191 and 182 third-year medical students participated in the game as a mandatory course activity. The mean (±SD) score of the game was 74.7% (±19.5%) in 2015, 71.2% (±21.5%) in 2016, and 67.5% (±21.5%) in 2017 (P < 0.01). Participants valued positively the organization and educational contents but found the virtual world less attractive and the game less interesting than in the voluntary edition. The experience globally was rated with 8.2 (±1.5), 7.8 (±1.5), and 7.1 (±1.7) mean points (±SD) in a ten-point scale, in the 2015, 2016, and 2017 editions, respectively (P < 0.05). Competitive learning games within virtual worlds like Second Life have great learning potential in radiology, but the mean score in the game decreased, acceptance of virtual world technology was lower, and opinion about the game was worse with a compulsory participation, and even worse when dropouts were not allowed. Under the conditions in which this study was conducted, learning games in three-dimensional virtual environments should be voluntary to maintain adequate motivation and engagement of medical students.

Exploring implementation of a nationwide requirement to increase physical activity in the curriculum in Danish public schools: a mixed methods study

BackgroundIn 2014, the Danish Government introduced a wide-ranging school reform that applied to all public schools in Denmark. A distinctive feature of the reform was that it became mandatory to implement an average of 45 min of daily physical activity within the curriculum. Using the RE-AIM framework as an evaluation tool, the objective of the current study was to evaluate the reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance of mandatory physical activity within the curriculum at ten Danish schools.MethodsA complementary mixed-methods approach using accelerometers, questionnaires, and semi-structured interviews was conducted. A total of 10 schools were invited to participate, including 846 students, 76 teachers, and 10 school managers on various levels. Students were invited to wear an accelerometer for seven consecutive days. Teachers were invited to participate in a questionnaire, and school managers were encouraged to take part in a semi-structured interview.ResultsResults showed that, on average, 45.2% of the students were active at least 45 min daily within the curriculum. Teacher and school management interest in physical activity, competencies development, and shared decision-making were identified as central factors for adoption of the requirement. Scheduling physical activity within scheduels and collaborations with external parties were found to influence implementation. Finally, internal coordination, motivated school staff, and school management priority were identified as central factors for maintenance.ConclusionsThis study provides an evaluation on a nationwide physical activity requirement in Danish public schools. When introducing a wide-ranging nation-wide requirement on physical activity within the curriculum, school managers need to prioritize and support the implementation process. Teachers need to be involved in the decision processes in order to ensure motivation and local ownership. The study also highlights the benefits of an internal coordinator as well as development of a shared strategy among schools, municipalities, and other stakeholders in order to succeed with the implementation.

ADDRESSING THEMES RELATED TO STOMATHERAPY IN UNDERGRADUATE NURSING EDUCATION: DOCUMENT ANALYSIS

Objective: discuss the approach of themes related to stomatherapy in Pedagogical Projects (PP) and syllabuses of undergraduate nursing courses from public institutions of higher education (PIHE) in the Brazilian Midwest. Method: documentary research, exploratory, with a qualitative approach, developed from March to June 2020. The nursing courses were located through access to the Ministry of Education’s online portal (e-MEC) and the PP and the subject syllabuss were accessed, when available. Results: The sample consisted of 17 graduation nursing courses. Themes related to stomatherapy are present in mandatory, elective or extension activities. It was identified a predominance of wound content in mandatory subjects, and the themes ostomy and incontinence are offered mainly in elective subjects or extension activities. Conclusion: the research aims to offer the PIHE subsidies for reflection and curriculum evaluation in the dissemination of topics related to stomatherapy in higher education in nursing.

The Choice of Urban Spaces in the COVID-19 Era

The spread of infectious diseases is a spatial process, including Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Cluster infections of COVID-19 have arisen globally in various urban spaces, implying that tracking the spread necessitates a spatial approach to understanding the dynamics of the disease. In this study, we employ an online survey in the Seoul metropolitan area in South Korea to examine changes in the use of urban spaces and factors that affect individual’s choice in using urban spaces in the COVID-19 era. We classify various urban spaces into three activity types according to the previous studies: spaces for mandatory activities, maintenance activities, and discretionary activities. The results show that every type of urban space is visited less than before the COVID-19 outbreak. Factors involved in the use of spaces for mandatory activities include the preference for offline consumption, gender, and risk perception of COVID-19. In the case of non-mandatory activity spaces, factors that commonly influence the use of the spaces are compliance with social distancing regulations, preference for offline consumption, refraining from outdoor activities, risk perception of COVID-19, and perceived safety in the city concerning COVID-19. The present study is significant as it identified not only different factors affecting the choice of mandatory and non-mandatory activity spaces but also distinctive variables determining the choice of urban spaces for maintenance activity and discretionary activity. From the analysis, this study draws policy implications to effectively prevent and control infectious disease in the context of urban spaces.

Stemming and best practice in the mining industry: A literature review

In 2015, after amendments to the explosives regulations, stemming became a mandatory activity for all South African mining operations. There are, however, circumstances in which it is thought stemming has an adverse impact on the blasting outcome. Some of these circumstances include blasting in hot holes, in reactive ground, or when blasting a pre-split. In order to determine when stemming is necessary, its role in the control of adverse blasting phenomena and impact on explosive performance were reviewed. Stemming was found to play a significant role in the fragmentation process and burden movement. Additionally, stemming significantly influences the control of flyrock, air-blast, and toxic fume generation. The review of the literature indicates some motivation for not using stemming for pre-split, trim, hot hole, and reactive ground blasting, provided the benefits associated with not stemming the holes outweigh the risks of stemming them. Best practice for stemming from the literature indicates a stemming length of 0.7 x burden is best for larger hole diameters, and 20 to 30 x 0 for smaller hole diameters. Crushed aggregate appears to be the most effective stemming material. The South African explosives regulations pertaining to stemming were found to be consistent with those of Australia and the USA.

Frostbite in Southwest China: A Single-Center Retrospective Analysis

Abstract Objective: The current study aimed to profile the demographics, hematological index, and extrinsic factors of patients treated for frostbite in a single center in Southwest China. Methods: We collected the clinical data of patients with frostbite admitted to a regional hospital from January 1st, 2009 to January 1st, 2019. The baseline information was summarized, and the causes and hematological indexes of frostbite were analyzed. Results: The study cohort comprised 27 patients. The median patient age was 22 years (range 14–81 years). All frostbite injuries occurred between September 22nd and April 27th. Half of the patients were Tibetans. Cold injuries in Tibetan patients were associated with pilgrimage (70%, 9/13) and grazing (15%, 2/13), while the leading causes of frostbite in Han residents of the Southwest China basin were mandatory fieldwork without protection (36%, 5/14) and loss of consciousness (36%, 5/14). The hematological examination findings did not significantly differ between amputees and those who did not undergo amputation. Several hematological indexes significantly differed between patients with good outcomes versus those with poor outcomes. Conclusion: To avoid severe frostbite damage, routine mandatory activities like pilgrimage should be conducted under proper protection in extreme weather. Hematological indexes such as the red blood cell count, hematocrit, and hemoglobin level should be monitored closely by first-line medical personnel during hospitalization, as these indexes might indicate the outcome of frostbite. Further research is needed to improve the management of patients with frostbite in Southwest China.

Temporal Politics and the Collectivization of Young People’s Leisure Time in Early Maoist Beijing

ABSTRACT Following the takeover of Beijing in 1949, the Chinese Communist Party started to provide public cultural goods for youth by organizing collective leisure activities, mostly on weekends and holidays. From 1953, the authorities took a more interventionist approach when they held collective leisure activities more often on an everyday basis after the Party realized that leisure was a field for Communist education. Although the Party expected youth to live in a planned and regular way, discontent sprang up in 1956 when young people found they could not master their leisure time because there were too many mandatory activities, and many work units forced people to attend organized leisure activities collectively. The Party, as a result, decided to ‘let people plan their time freely’ by reducing unnecessary meetings in leisure time, allowing voluntary participation of leisure activities, and letting Party committees make overall leisure arrangements in local work units. Instead of challenging the legitimacy of political intervention in their leisure time, young people got accustomed to a new pace of life favoured by the regime: doing the right things at the right time, in the right place.

Environmental permit in the pandemic time of Covid-19

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the role of all state officials and the public is urgently needed in preventing pollution and environmental damage. One of the instruments in an effort to prevent environmental pollution and damage is an environmental permit, as stipulated in Article 1 number 35 Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management which is further regulated in Government Regulation Number 27 of 2012 concerning Environmental Permits. With the existence of this Law, it is mandatory for business actors who are obliged to do EIA and UKL-UPL must also have an environmental permit. The enactment of environmental permits in accordance with Government Regulation Number 27 of 2012 equates environmental documents as environmental permits. As one of the problems in this research is how the legal arrangements for business actors and / or activities related to environmental permits. The research method used in this thesis is normative juridical research. This research was conducted to examine previous studies on legal principles regarding criminal charges related to environmental permits. Based on the description above, it can be concluded that the legal arrangements related to environmental permits are contained in Article 1 number 35 UUPPLH and Article 1 PP. No. 27 of 2012 concerning Environmental Permits is a permit that is given to every person who carries out a business and / or mandatory Amdal or UKL-UPL activities in the framework of environmental protection and management as a prerequisite for obtaining a business and / or activity license

PENGENALAN ANGKA ANAK MELALUI MEDIA BALOK WARNA DI RA NURUL UMMAH

This study aims to determine the implementation of the introduction of children's numbers through beam media at RA Nurul Ummah Kenep Balen, Bojonegoro Regency. This study uses a qualitative approach. Data was collected by using interview, observation, and documentation techniques. Data analysis techniques include the method of induction and descriptive/interpretive analysis, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, checking the validity of the research by extending the participation of researchers, triangulation techniques. The results showed that the introduction of children's numbers through the media of color blocks can increase the knowledge of numbers for children, and for teachers it is easier for students to understand numbers. The supporting factors are the existence of a program that has become a mandatory activity set by the school as one of the subjects, the support from the school to provide educational learning facilities in the form of color blocks, the ability of active and creative teachers to use media facilities, while the inhibiting factors are students who still cannot distinguish the color of the blocks, students are late when entering. Efforts to recognize numbers that need to be done are careful preparation for teachers before doing learning, both learning administration, teaching preparation, and learning media, especially in counting using color block media, and the presence of complementary media from color block media.

사회복지시설 종사자의 직장 내 괴롭힘 경험과 인식 연구

This study aims to seek ways to eradicate workplace harassment at social welfare organizations by examining the experiences and perception of workplace harassment by social welfare organization employees through in-depth interviews of 13 research participants. Results of this research showed that there were various types of workplace harassments that negatively affected the physical and mental health of employees and work efficiency. As an official authority at organizations where harassment occurred does not play a sufficient role and the administrative authorities are not trustful enough, employees chose to tolerate such practices. Interview participants said that the undemocratic operation of organizations with practices of with coworkers, and the concentration of power make it difficult for them to report harassment cases. Based on these findings, this paper suggested establishing a democratic system in operating social welfare organizations, a mechanism of relief for those in trouble, and mandatory preventive education programs and public campaign activities as alternatives to eliminate workplace harassment.

Modeling Activity-Time to Build Realistic Plannings in Population Synthesis in a Suburban Area

In their daily activity planning, travelers always considers time and space constraints such as working or education hours and distances to facilities that can restrict the location and time-of-day choices of other activities. In the field of population synthesis, current demand models lack dynamic consistency and often fail to capture the angle of activity choices at different times of the day. This article presents a method for synthetic population generation with a focus on activity-time choice. Activity-time choice consists mainly in the activity’s starting time and its duration, and we consider daily planning with some mandatory home-based activity: the chain of other subsequent activities a traveler can participate in depends on their possible end-time and duration as well as the travel distance from one another and opening hours of commodities. We are interested in a suburban area with sparse data available on population, where a discrete choice model based on utilities cannot be implemented due to the lack of microeconomic data. Our method applies activity-hours distributions extracted from the public census, with a limited corpus, to draw the time of a potential next activity based on the end-time of the previous one, predicted travel times, and the successor activities the agent wants to participate in during the day. We show that our method is able to construct plannings for 126k agents over five municipalities, with chains of activity made of work, education, shopping, leisure, restaurant and kindergarten, which fit adequately real-world time distributions.
