Variables influencing visitation decisions to conflict-ridden destinations: the effect of religiosity

ABSTRACT The study analyses religiosity as an antecedent variable that influences perceptions of terror risk and animosity, which shape image and visitation intentions to conflict ridden-destinations. The investigation is carried out for two different destinations, Turkey and Israel, both of which suffer from an armed political conflict within their territory. To increase generalizability, the study examines the model of relationships using samples from two source countries, the U.S.A. and India, which represent a Western individualistic and non-Western collectivistic cultural context. The results indicate that religiosity increases terror risk perceptions and decreases animosity, while also indirectly influencing visitation decisions to conflict-ridden destinations. The model is stable for both destinations and across samples, despite some differences that are discussed.

ASSESSING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF COVID-19 INFECTION CONTROL BEST PRACTICES IN NURSING HOMES

Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic has claimed over a million lives in the United States, with nursing homes suffering over 158,000 deaths through 2022. In a cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) with 136 nursing homes, we delivered best-practice training to improve COVID-19 infection control practices. We sought to assess the implementation of infection control practices in participating nursing homes using Project ECHO (Extension for Community Health Outcomes) as an implementation strategy. We delivered a 16-week infectious disease and quality improvement training via real-time, interactive videoconferencing. We surveyed nursing home administrators (NHAs) and nursing staff at baseline and 6-month follow-up. Using validated items from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the surveys inquired about 80 infection control best-practice activities (yes/no) related to preparedness, visitation policies, communication, protocols, management of deceased residents, education, staffing, personal protective equipment (PPE), and hygiene practices. We also assessed readiness for change and implementation climate in nursing homes with validated scales. We assessed changes in infection control practices and implementation scale scores between baseline and 6-month follow-up. A total of 197 unique participants from 126 nursing homes responded to our surveys. We found that visitation decisions were less likely made on a case-by-case basis by the end of 6 months (91% vs.76%, p=0.025) and an increase in informational materials developed for residents and families at the appropriate reading level (88% vs. 100%, p=0.021) was observed. We also saw changes in some individual items, e.g., an increase in delegating to non-physician staff

Digital Twin Enriched Green Topology Discovery for Next Generation Core Networks

Topology discovery is the key function of core network management since it utilizes the perception of data and mapping network devices. Nevertheless, it holds operational and resource efficiency complexities. For example, traditional discovery cannot perform predictive analysis to learn the network behavior. Moreover, traditional discovery periodically visits IP ports without considering the utilization levels, which leads to high resource usage and energy consumption. Hence, it is necessary to integrate intelligent methods into traditional discovery to deeply understand the behavioral pattern of a core network and recommend action to avoid these intrinsic complexities. Therefore, we propose a Digital Twin (DT) enriched Green Discovery Policy (DT-GDP) to serve a green discovery by using the increased intelligence and seamless assistance of DT. DT-GDP jointly uses the outputs of two modules to calculate the total energy consumption in Watts. In the energy module, we consider the service power, idle state power, and the cooling power of an IP port and derive a novel energy formula. In the visit decision module, we use Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) to classify the IP ports and recommend visit action. According to experimental results, we achieve a significant reduction in the visited ports by 53% and energy consumption by 66%.

The Influence of Risk Perception on Visit Decision to Tourism Village: The Mediating Role of Tourist Motivation

Community Tourism Village remains a favorite choice to visit despite the various risks threaten during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The population in this study were domestic tourists, with a total sample of 400 obtained using the purposive sampling technique. The data analysis technique uses SmartPLS 4 by testing the validity, reliability, and mediating effect test on the research data. The results of the research data analysis show influence from each variable, with 47.0% of the variance of tourist motivation determined by risk perception, and 58.2% of the variance in visiting decisions was determined by risk perception and tourist motivation. Thus, tourist motivation positively and significantly mediates the risk perception in visiting decisions. This research can help tourism village managers and the government prepare and improve the services and facilities provided to become healthy, safe, and low-risk COVID-19 tourist destinations.

Visitor restrictions in hospitals during infectious disease outbreaks: An ethical approach to policy development and requests for exemptions.

In this paper, we explore the ethics of restricting visitation to hospitals during an infectious disease outbreak. We aim to answer three questions: What are the features of an ethically justified hospital visitor restriction policy? Should policies include scope for case-by-case exemptions? How should decisions about exemptions be made? Based on a critical interpretive review of the existing ethical literature on visitor restrictions, we argue that an ethically justified hospital visitor restriction policy has the following features: proportionality, comprehensiveness, harm mitigation, exemptions for specific patient populations, visitation decisions made separately from a patient's treating clinicians, transparency, and consistency in application. We also argue that an ethical policy ought to include scope for case-by-case exemptions for individual patients. We propose a process for ethical decision-making that provides a shared language and structure to decrease the risks and burdens of decision-making when clinicians or managers are considering requests for exemptions.
