The Regional Scale of Landscape Planning: the Possibilities for Measuring the Effectiveness of Nature-Based Solutions

Aim: The aim of this study is to investigate the measurement of landscape integrity based on ecological support processes in the Federal District, with the aim of defining a multi-scalar and multi-functional Regional Green Infrastructure Network (IVR) based on Nature-Based Solutions (NBS). Theoretical Framework: This topic presents the main concepts and theories that underpin the research. Landscape Ecology, Restoration Ecology, Green Infrastructure and Geodesign stand out, providing a solid basis for understanding the research context. Method: The methodology adopted for this research comprises the analysis of ecological support processes in the landscape, using the multispectral “CO2flux” index, related to the photosynthetic efficiency of vegetation and a proxy for energy, carbon and biomass inputs, which, together with the “Topographic Wetness Index”, related to the flow and accumulation of water and sediment in the landscape, provided the basis for the elaboration of a Geodesign process. Data was collected using multispectral satellite scenes - “Landsat 8”, collected during the dry season. Results and Discussion: The results obtained revealed the design of a mosaic of “hotspots”, corridors and patches that consolidates and intensifies carbon flows in the Federal District's landscape, with positive impacts on territorial resilience. In the discussion section, these results are contextualized in the light of the theoretical framework, highlighting the implications and relationships identified. Possible discrepancies and limitations of the study are also considered in this section. Research Implications: The practical and theoretical implications of this research are discussed, providing “insights” into how the results can be applied, or how to influence practices in the field of landscape planning. These implications can cover the design of Nature-Based Solutions at a regional scale, climate mitigation and adaptation actions for territories, and people's access to ecosystem services. Originality/Value: This study contributes to the literature by proposing the design of a regional network of green infrastructures based on the analysis of the flow of ecological support processes in the landscape, considering different demands and goals for environmental recovery. The relevance and value of this research is evidenced by the possibility of planning and designing mosaics in the landscape based on the identification of networks with greater potential for the provision of ecosystem services and, consequently, for the adaptation and mitigation of territories to climate impacts and those resulting from human occupation.

Balance of power: The choice between trial and participant numbers to optimise the detection of phase-dependent effects

Abstract The fields of neuroscience and psychology are currently in the midst of a so-called reproducibility crisis, with growing concerns regarding a history of weak effect sizes and low statistical power in much of the research published in these fields over the last few decades. Whilst the traditional approach for addressing this criticism has been to increase participant sample sizes, there are many research contexts in which the number of trials per participant may be of equal importance. The present study aimed to compare the relative importance of participants and trials in the detection of phase-dependent phenomena, which are measured across a range of neuroscientific contexts (e.g., neural oscillations, non-invasive brain stimulation). This was achievable within a simulated environment where one can manipulate the strength of this phase dependency in two types of outcome variables: one with normally distributed residuals (idealistic) and one comparable with motor-evoked potentials (an MEP-like variable). We compared the statistical power across thousands of experiments with the same number of sessions per experiment but with different proportions of participants and number of sessions per participant (30 participants × 1 session, 15 participants × 2 sessions, and 10 participants × 3 sessions), with the trials being pooled across sessions for each participant. These simulations were performed for both outcome variables (idealistic and MEP-like) and four different effect sizes (0.075—“weak,” 0.1—“moderate,” 0.125—“strong,” 0.15—“very strong”), as well as separate control scenarios with no true effect. Across all scenarios with (true) discoverable effects, and for both outcome types, there was a statistical benefit for experiments maximising the number of trials rather than the number of participants (i.e., it was always beneficial to recruit fewer participants but have them complete more trials). These findings emphasise the importance of obtaining sufficient individual-level data rather than simply increasing number of participants.

Best practices for germline variant and DNA methylation analysis of second- and third-generation sequencing data.

Augmented Reality Adoption: Exploring Security Concerns and Consumer Resourcefulness in the Era of Society 5.0

ABSTRACTSociety 5.0, building its foundation on industry 4.0, defines the concept of super smart cities as places where humans can adapt novel technologies such as augmented reality (AR) in their daily lives. AR brought its consumers an immersive and hybrid experience, blurring the boundaries between the real and virtual worlds. This study explores the user adoption of AR, an interactive technology, in the e‐commerce domain in the present era of Society 5.0. This study seeks to address the question of what factors drive the consumer's adoption of AR while shopping online and how security concern and technostress (TS) impact their intention towards its use and its actual usage behaviour. This research offers a novel perspective and fills a gap in the existing literature by integrating consumers' security concerns and TS, previously unexplored factors, in the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model. The ability of the UTAUT model, over the earlier technology adoption models, to incorporate context‐specific factors makes it significantly relevant for studying AR adoption, a technology blending the virtual and real world. A modified UTAUT‐based questionnaire assessed relevant factors influencing this behaviour. This study employed a quantitative, cross‐sectional survey design to apprehend a broad range of users and to investigate consumer perceptions and adoption of AR in online shopping. Purposive sampling ensured that respondents were aligned with the research context and were knowledgeable about the use of AR in the e‐commerce domain and its relevant applications, thereby strengthening the validity of the study findings. A two‐staged partial least square structural equation modelling–artificial neural network (PLS‐SEM–ANN) data analysis approach was used to determine the study's findings. The meaningful responses collected from 457 respondents were analysed using this targeted approach for in‐depth insights. The synthesis of the study's analysis suggests that personal innovativeness towards information technology and security concerns are critical drivers of intention and actual usage. Interestingly, TS and social influence emerged as non‐significant, indicating a nuanced view of the UTAUT model in this context. A possible explanation for their insignificance lies in the present generation's ability to rapidly adapt to new technologies and make autonomous decisions, reducing reliance on peer influence. By understanding these factors, the research seeks to pave the way for the efficacious integration of AR within the e‐commerce domain. It further emphasizes the significance of consumer resourcefulness, a gap in current research, for bridging the intention‐usage gap. This focus on consumers’ personal innovativeness towards IT, security concerns and consumer resourcefulness provides valuable insights for e‐commerce platforms seeking to drive successful AR adoption. The study explores how well AR will be accepted and used, informing scholarly researchers and businesses on making AR‐integrated online shopping successful.

Anticolonial co-design: a methodology for including agricultural workers in the development of new AgTech

ABSTRACT Collaborative design (co-design) is becoming a popular method for including end-users in the design process of technologies which may affect them. The research in this paper emerges from an agricultural technology (AgTech) co-design project located in settler colonial state of Aotearoa New Zealand. Inspired by methodological insights from anticolonial science and technology studies (STS), the paper details the authors’ experiences with attempting to include local and migrant agricultural workers within the AgTech co-design project in a way that did not perpetuate colonialism (i.e. was anticolonial). Based on these experiences, the authors identify four practices that can support other researchers wanting to engage in anticolonial co-design: (1) understand the historical context of your research; (2) create a place –and community-based guidelines for technology development; (3) build and maintain strong relationships with collaborators; and (4) be prepared to slow-down or to stop innovation. These practices offer methodological insights into how to do anticolonial co-design within the uneven power relations of settler colonialism and within projects not necessarily designed to engage in anticolonial co-design.

Dreaming in English in West Africa: stories of language, hope and the transformative power of multilingualism

ABSTRACT Examining narratives from now-adults who attended a small English Medium of Instruction school in West Africa during the 2000s, this study investigates the connections forged between language, hopes, dreams, and the manifold opportunities and challenges that unfolded as a result of their EMI education. Guided by the principles of Ubuntu, a community ethic prevalent in the research context, the paper shows how these young individuals transcended the need to align their aspirations with their socio-political reality. Against the backdrop of English’s enduring perception as a gateway to enhanced quality of life, the study identifies a notable shift towards what we term attunement. Attunement emerges at the intersection of the constraining effects of the hegemony of English and the empowering principles of Ubuntu, fostering a flexible approach to personal and classroom language. This dynamic process opens up additional avenues of access and establishes the desired connections between language, hopes, and dreams.

A Scoping Review of Implementation Science Studies in the Field of Traumatic Brain Injury: State of the Science and Future Directions.

Implementation research is essential to accelerating the public health benefits of innovations in health settings. However, the US National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine 2022 report identified a lag in published implementation research applied to traumatic brain injury (TBI). Our objectives were to characterize implementation science studies published to date in TBI clinical care and rehabilitation and provide recommendations for future directions. A scoping review was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews. Articles published between 2011 and 2023 were identified (MEDLINE, PubMed, PsychInfo, and Web of Science), and included if the study focused on the TBI population, measured at least one Proctor (2011) implementation outcome and aligned with implementation research designs. Data were charted using an extraction template. Of the 38 articles, 76% were published between 2018 and 2023. About 37% of articles were in the pre-implementation phase, and 57.9% were in the implementation phase. Over half of articles used a theory, model, or framework to guide the research. Fifteen studies were descriptive, 10 were qualitative, 7 were mixed methods, and 4 were randomized controlled trials. Most studies investigated implementation outcomes regarding national guidelines following TBI or TBI symptom management. Adoption (42.1%) and fidelity (42.1%) were the most commonly studied implementation outcomes, followed by feasibility (18.4%), acceptability (13.2%), and penetration (10.5%). Only 55% of studies used or tested the effectiveness of one or more implementation strategies, with training and education used most commonly, followed by data warehousing techniques. Future research should prioritize the selection and investigation of implementation strategy effectiveness and mechanisms across contexts of care and use implementation research reporting standards to improve study rigor. Additionally, collaborative efforts between researchers, community partners, individuals with TBI, and their care partners could improve the equitable translation of innovations across service contexts.

The 59th Annual Meeting of the Society for Low Temperature Biology, 20-22 September 2023, Vigo, Spain

Involving patients and their tissues in the research pathway is crucial for future heath innovations. There are many challenges including sustainability, logistical organisation whilst maintaining robust ethical oversight. For over a decade, TAPb has developed to become a research infrastructure to facilitate patient-centric studies across the research pipeline (from bench science, translation to human tissue and the sample component of interventional clinical trials). The TAPb platform groups researchers across academic, commercial and clinical trial sectors, and clinical services. This spreads the costs of the core team, and introduces capacity to provide specialised research services in an incremental way. TAPb is a not-for-profit, full cost recovery model that has been implemented across 7 patient clinical services within the Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust. It supports an office of 6 fulltime staff, complemented by a number (currently about 7) part-time staff, to reflect the fluctuations in research demand. The researcher journey starts with TAPb linking NHS standard of care and research requirements to aid study design and feasibility. TAPb then provides suitable ethics and project management to develop timescales and delivery methodologies according to evolving research requirements, throughout the delivery phase. Samples and link-anonymised clinical data, and disease interpretation is provided to place samples in the correct research context. This presentation will provide an overview of the important steps which TAPb office have learnt which can make the infrastructure sustainable. Some examples of the significant research impact will be given as an illustration.

Relationship between Adverse Childhood Experiences and Gang Participation Among Youth in Mombasa County, Kenya: From the Perspective of Household Challenges

Purpose: Gang participation has become a universal phenomenon attracting increasing attention in both developed and developing countries. Previous research denotes strong evidence that early life adverse traumas and events heighten the risk of delinquent behaviour among young people. This study aimed to find out whether there is a relationship between household challenges and gang participation among youth gang members in Mombasa County. This study was guided by the Interactional Theory by Terrence Thornberry (1987). Methods: This study employed a correlational research design within the context of Ex-post facto research. The study population consisted of alleged, convicted, and reforming gang members in Mombasa. They were drawn from a database accessed by the Nyali District Peace Committee (DPC) which has 358 members aged between 15-31 years. Purposive, and snowball sampling techniques were used to gather data from the sample. Descriptive statistics namely, frequencies, percentages, and measures of central tendency were used. Inferential statistics namely the Pearson Product Moment correlation coefficient, linear, and regression was then employed to establish the relationship between household challenges and gang participation. Results: The findings revealed a strong positive correlation between gang participation and household challenges (r = 0.876, p < 0.01). Implication: The findings of this study will guide the formulation of programs and interventions for the rehabilitation and reintegration of these gang members. These can be of help to Civil Society Organizations, law enforcement agencies, and probation officers.

Erosive durability: underground architecture of hideouts and their vernacular memory in today’s Poland and Ukraine

ABSTRACT War-time Jewish hideouts are rare material witnesses of past violence and struggle for survival. Over the years, the issue of hiding appeared in multiple contexts in Holocaust research, but we know very little about their materiality and architecture. The article is an introductory summary of an artistic research project conducted by Natalia Romik and Aleksandra Janus on the materiality of hideouts and the contemporary vernacular memory of them. The article contains descriptions and spatial analysis of three underground hideouts located in Poland and Ukraine and offers an overview of how the vernacular memory of them functions in various local contexts.

This data article supplements the “Overview of EU Building Envelope Energy Requirement for Climate Neutrality” by presenting a detailed dataset on building regulations across all 27 EU member states, with a focus on building envelope efficiency. The data include thermal transmittance limits for windows, walls, floors, and roofs, offering insights into regulatory differences and potential opportunities for harmonization. Information was sourced from the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) database, national reports, and scientific literature to ensure comprehensive coverage. Key aspects of each country’s regulations are summarized in tables, covering both new constructions and renovations. The inclusion of Köppen–Geiger climate classifications allows for climate-specific analyses, providing valuable context for researchers, policymakers, and construction professionals. This dataset enables comparative studies, helping to identify best practices and inform policy interventions aimed at enhancing energy efficiency across Europe. It also supports the development of tailored strategies to improve building performance in different environmental conditions, ultimately contributing to the EU’s energy and climate targets.

Minors’ online privacy disclosure and protection behaviors: a systematic review

ABSTRACT The invasion of minors’ online privacy has become increasingly prevalent in recent years. Examining the disclosure and protection behaviours of minors about online privacy provides a theoretical basis for the development of educational activities aimed at safeguarding minors’ privacy. This study utilised visual analysis tools and content analysis of literature to systematically map out the research hotspots and evolution in this field. The findings revealed that (1) research in this area is thriving and interdisciplinary, (2) existing studies primarily focus on minors aged 12–18 and their active privacy disclosure behaviour in social media and other scenarios, as well as key influencing factors, (3) these studies not only examine the influence of minors themselves but also the influence of parents and peers on minors’ online privacy behaviours, and (4) most minors adopt avoidance strategies such as privacy settings and alternative websites to protect their online privacy. Further research could expand the research context, resolve controversial factors, use multiple methods, and explore additional privacy behaviours. This literature review plays a crucial role in generating academic discourse and provides valuable insights for developing privacy protection policies tailored to minors.

Legal Impact Of Catcalling Perpetrators And Physiological Impact On Victims In Indonesia

This article aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the legal framework related to catcalling perpetrators and their physiological impact on victims in Indonesia as well as more effective law enforcement efforts in tackling this phenomenon. The focus is on increasing awareness of legal protection for victims and supporting stronger law enforcement against perpetrators of catcalling. In the research context, catcalling often occurs in open public places, especially with the majority of victims being women who wear the hijab. Forms of catcalling include comments, teasing, gestures, and touching. The research method used is qualitative with a literature review study approach. Data regarding catcalling cases was obtained from the researcher's personal experience, supported by journal research highlighting similar cases in Indonesia. Catcalling is a serious form of sexual harassment, with detrimental impacts on victims such as feelings of insecurity and emotional stress. Strong legal protection, public awareness, and more specific regulations are needed to address this problem effectively. With these steps, it is hoped that we can create a safer environment and respect individual rights. In order to deal with the problem of catcalling, there needs to be a synergy between strengthening the existing legal framework, outreach campaigns, and improving regulations governing behavior in public spaces. In addition, the importance of support from authorities such as the police and other law enforcement agencies to ensure that catcalling cases are handled seriously and fairly. In addition, there is a need for a holistic approach that involves providing psychological and social support for victims to help them recover from the impact of the trauma they may have experienced. Overall, efforts to overcome the catcalling phenomenon require collaboration between the government, the community and various other stakeholders. Only with comprehensive and coordinated measures can we create a safer environment that respects individual rights, and prevent the recurrence of catcalling cases in the future.

Research on Mobile Learning (M-Learning) in Higher Education: A Systematic Review (2016 to 2023)

This study investigates the evolution of mobile learning (M-Learning) applications in higher education between 2016 and 2023. This period marks an era of significant technological innovations and the profound impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on education. The purpose of this research is to delineate how M-Learning applications are represented in the academic literature during this time and to identify research trends within this field. The research is based on a systematic review of 161 academic articles related to M-Learning, published between 2016 and 2023 in the Scopus and Web of Science databases. The study utilizes the TCCM (Theory, Context, Characteristics, Methodology) framework to conduct an in-depth analysis of theoretical approaches, research contexts, learning characteristics, and methodological strategies in the literature. The findings reveal that M-Learning positively impacts areas such as collaboration, skill development, and self-assessment among students. The effective use of mobile devices as educational tools by instructors and students is identified as crucial for the success of M-Learning applications. Moreover, the success of M-Learning is closely linked to users' attitudes toward technology and the integration of technological and pedagogical supports into the learning processes. This systematic review provides significant insights into how M-Learning can transform learning and teaching practices in higher education. It suggests strategic planning and further research for educators, policymakers, and researchers on integrating mobile technologies into learning processes. Specifically, there is a need to explore the long-term effects of M-Learning on student achievement and its applicability in various learning contexts.

Leveraging Systemic Contributors and Adaptations to Sharpen Interventions: The IMPActS Workshop

A common pattern among intervention implementations is that, in many cases, initial adoption and early signals of success are followed by dwindling participation, signals that the intervention is not achieving its goals, and abandonment of the intervention as it was originally conceived. The IMPActS Framework facilitates anticipation of misalignment among stakeholders during the design, pitch, implementation, and sustainability of a candidate intervention’s implementation. We adapted the IMPActS Framework to design an IMPActS Workshop to occur within the context of an ongoing research with a partner organization to develop their proactive performance monitoring and sustained adaptability management program. The IMPActS Workshop prospectively tests the implementation sustainability of candidate interventions and sharpened intervention design to improve the likelihood of sustainment across the organization. We report the motivation, methods, results, and lessons learned from this effort.

EXCAVATIONS IN THE ANCIENT THEATRE OF SPARTA, 2008

This article presents the results of the 2008 excavation in the ancient theatre of Sparta conducted by the British School at Athens and the Ephorate of Antiquities of Laconia. Focused on the west side of the cavea, work aimed to locate the southern edge of the Late Antique settlement between the theatre and the sanctuary of Athena Chalkioikos; to establish the northern limits of the Late Antique settlement over the former orchestra; and to establish a more precise ceramic characterisation and chronology for the Early–Middle Byzantine period in Sparta. The area between settlement clusters on the acropolis and over the former orchestra was essentially open, with just a Byzantine terrace wall and path recorded. In the north-west part of the former cavea, a tomb built in the late eighth or early ninth century AD was used at least until the late thirteenth century for the burial of c. 29 individuals. This article presents the first results of a bioarchaeological study of the human remains, and studies of Byzantine pottery from the tomb interior and from the backfill of the pit in which the tomb was built (the latter including a notable quantity of Early Byzantine domestic ware). The 2008 findings are set in the larger context of research on post-antique phases in the theatre (drawing on the British School at Athens Archive) and on the material culture and urban topography of Byzantine Sparta. Almost all excavated contexts contained residual material of all periods. The article concludes with short catalogues of material which pre-dates the construction of the theatre and of inscriptions of all periods.

Clients and carers: Healthcare professionals’ roles in medical device development processes in SMEs

Purpose of the article With the call for patient-centred healthcare, designers and healthcare professionals collaborate increasingly, as both health and design researchers advocate closer engagement between the two. Yet the existing literature is scarce in describing the actual roles taken up by healthcare professionals in these collaborations. Addressing this gap, this article investigates the participation of healthcare professionals in medical device development in SMEs.

The analysis is based on data gathered through semi-structured interviews with 32 professionals, including design professionals, managers, physiotherapists and engineers involved in the design of around 25 medical devices. Results and conclusion This article identifies four main roles that healthcare professionals take in medical device development: business partners, expert users, mediators, and medical professionals. These roles entail diverse responsibilities with various objects of collaboration with designers, making significant contributions to medical design.

11.K. Scientific session: Roots of public health: school health literacy to enhance population health outcomes in Europe

Abstract This workshop will present empirical results from three representative studies on health literacy and digital health literacy conducted in primary and secondary schools in Wales and Germany: (1) Digital Health Literacy in Schools, (2), HLCA HL-Kids, (3) WHO HBSC Wales. While research on child and adolescent health literacy has gained traction in the past decade, only a few studies focus on health literacy in schools. While the European Commission and WHO, as well as most European governments, highlight the importance of schools to support children’s health literacy, schools remain neglected as a research context. With only little evidence available, it is difficult to derive strategies and programs to promote health literacy in schools. We aim to provide practical novel knowledge and contribute to closing the school health literacy gap that is prevalent in Europe. In turn, this will also contribute to European public health development and population health outcomes. Levels of health literacy in child and adolescent populations across European countries and age groups are alarmingly low, making low health literacy a severe risk factor for health outcomes. Low health literacy is associated with worse health conditions and unhealthy behaviours, and in turn, impacts school attainment and educational outcomes. Evidence suggests that health literacy acts as a determinant of health and itself is influenced by other social determinants of health, such as education, intertwining health and education. All studies conducted so far provide evidence that low health literacy follows a social gradient, with children from less affluent families being more likely to have lower health literacy, widening preexisting health inequities observed in almost all health domains within Europe. While effective interventions on the individual and system levels are needed to enhance health literacy, implementation and evaluation research concerning children’s health literacy is rare. Workshop objectives The aim of this workshop is to present findings from three representative studies on health literacy and digital health literacy in primary and secondary schools: (i) The 1st speaker will introduce a study on health literacy and health behaviours of children aged 8-11 (ii) The 2nd speaker will discuss the influence of living environments on health literacy in 4th-grader school kids (iii) The 3rd presentation will have its focus on navigating the infodemic through digital health literacy in adolescent students (iv) The 4th speaker will show links between digital health literacy and health behaviour in adolescent students The format of this workshop will be 4x10-minute presentations followed by a 20-minute panel discussion with the audience, reflecting the relevance of the results to public health research, practice, and policy. The chairs will provide a brief introduction to the concept and moderate the presentations and panel discussion. Key messages • Our results show that health literacy should be addressed as early as in primary schools and that the places, households, and environments children grow up are critical social determinants of health. • Digital health literacy has proven to be a valid learning topic in secondary schools and is linked to digital and media literacy, allowing us to define it as a targeted curriculum item.

Developing mobile augmented reality in picture book for teaching English for young learners

An effective language and learning process must contain interactive, fun, challenging, motivating aspects and provide more space for students to develop their creativity and independence, according to students' talents and interests; thus, appropriate teaching media can be as assisting tools.
