Abstract:
The review of Jordanian e-government literature revealed that not much effort has been made yet toward empirically examine the factors impacting citizens' adoption of electronic government (e-government) systems. The undertaken research fills this gap by testing the extended technology acceptance model (TAM) as an aide for understanding the factors influencing citizens' adoption the Jordanian electronic complaint service (ECS). The research has also considered two additional factors such as facilitating conditions and trust to understand their impact on Jordanian citizens' intention to adopt such system. A total of 250 usable responses were obtained from the respondents for this purpose. The proposed research model prescribed five hypotheses and all these hypotheses were supported by the data. The results indicated perceived trust as the strongest whereas facilitating conditions as the weakest though significant predictor of behavioral intention.

Abstract:
Evaluation of patients who are unable to provide behavioral responses on standard clinical measures is challenging due to the lack of standard objective (non-behavioral) clinical audiological measures that assess the outcome of an intervention (e.g., hearing aids). Brainstem responses to short consonant-vowel stimuli (speech-auditory brainstem responses [speech-ABRs]) have been proposed as a measure of subcortical encoding of speech, speech detection, and speech-in-noise performance in individuals with normal hearing. Here, we investigated the potential application of speech-ABRs as an objective clinical outcome measure of speech detection, speech-in-noise detection and recognition, and self-reported speech understanding in 98 adults with sensorineural hearing loss. We compared aided and unaided speech-ABRs, and speech-ABRs in quiet and in noise. In addition, we evaluated whether speech-ABR F0 encoding (obtained from the complex cross-correlation with the 40 ms [da] fundamental waveform) predicted aided behavioral speech recognition in noise or aided self-reported speech understanding. Results showed that (a) aided speech-ABRs had earlier peak latencies, larger peak amplitudes, and larger F0 encoding amplitudes compared to unaided speech-ABRs; (b) the addition of background noise resulted in later F0 encoding latencies but did not have an effect on peak latencies and amplitudes or on F0 encoding amplitudes; and (c) speech-ABRs were not a significant predictor of any of the behavioral or self-report measures. These results show that speech-ABR F0 encoding is not a good predictor of speech-in-noise recognition or self-reported speech understanding with hearing aids. However, our results suggest that speech-ABRs may have potential for clinical application as an objective measure of speech detection with hearing aids.

Abstract:
AbstractThis study examined teachers’ perceptions of the role of teacher aides in mathematics classrooms in rural and remote Indigenous communities. Twelve teachers from three schools in rural and remote Queensland participated in the study. The results from the first year of the project indicated that there were differences in how these teachers worked with their teacher aides, particularly the specific roles assigned to them in the mathematics classroom, with non-Indigenous teacher aides being given greater responsibilities for student learning and Indigenous teacher aides for behavioural management. As a result of teacher aide in-service on mathematics learning, teachers’ perception of the Indigenous teacher aides changed, resulting in each being given greater responsibility for student learning.

Abstract:
Background: Previous studies have demonstrated that cortical auditory-evoked potentials (CAEPs) can be reliably elicited in response to speech stimuli in listeners wearing hearing aids. It is unclear, however, how close to the aided behavioral threshold (i.e., at what behavioral sensation level) a sound must be before a cortical response can reliably be detected. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to systematically examine the relationship between CAEP detection and the audibility of speech sounds (as measured behaviorally), when the listener is wearing a hearing aid fitted to prescriptive targets. A secondary aim was to investigate whether CAEP detection is affected by varying the frequency emphasis of stimuli, so as to simulate variations to the prescribed gain-frequency response of a hearing aid. The results have direct implications for the evaluation of hearing aid fittings in nonresponsive adult clients, and indirect implications for the evaluation of hearing aid fittings in infants. Research Design: Participants wore hearing aids while listening to speech sounds presented in a sound field. Aided thresholds were measured, and cortical responses evoked, under a range of stimulus conditions. The presence or absence of CAEPs was determined by an automated statistic. Study Sample: Participants were adults (6 females and 4 males). Participants had sensorineural hearing loss ranging from mild to severe-profound in degree. Data Collection and Analysis: Participants' own hearing aids were replaced with a test hearing aid, with linear processing, during assessments. Pure-tone thresholds and hearing aid gain measurements were obtained, and a theoretical prediction of speech stimulus audibility for each participant (similar to those used for audibility predictions in infant hearing aid fittings) was calculated. Three speech stimuli, (/m/, /t/, and /g/) were presented aided (monaurally, nontest ear occluded), free field, under three conditions (+4 dB/octave, −4 dB/octave, and without filtering), at levels of 40, 50, and 60 dB SPL (measured for the unfiltered condition). Behavioral thresholds were obtained, and CAEP recordings were made using these stimuli. The interaction of hearing loss, presentation levels, and filtering conditions resulted in a range of CAEP test behavioral sensation levels (SLs), from −25 to +40 dB. Results: Statistically significant CAEPs (p < .05) were obtained for virtually every presentation where the behavioral sensation level was >10 dB, and for only 5% of occasions when the sensation level was negative. In these (“false-positive”) cases, the greatest (negative) sensation level at which a CAEP was judged to be present was −6 dB SL. Conclusions: CAEPs are a sensitive tool for directly evaluating the audibility of speech sounds, at least for adult listeners. CAEP evaluation was found to be more accurate than audibility predictions, based on threshold and hearing aid response measures.

Abstract:
Abstract The Changing Talk (CHAT) training effectively reduces elderspeak and subsequent behavioral challenges in residents with dementia in nursing homes. The Changing Talk: Online (CHATO) training was developed to increase staff access to education using a new online format. A pilot test was conducted to confirm the feasibility and effects of CHATO on training outcomes. In the initial nursing home, twenty-three direct care staff members in a small Midwestern nursing home enrolled in the course including 12 CNAs, 4 RNs, 2 LPNs, 2 CMAs, 1 Dietary Aide, 1 Social Worker, and 1 in Transportation. Two forms of a 13-item scenario-based test to measure knowledge gain were developed and tested. Of the 23 staff, 18 (78%) completed the post-test and 83% of completers achieved a post-test score of 70% or greater. Scores on the test improved from M=69% correct (SD=11.7) at pretest to 86% correct (SD=10.6) on posttest demonstrating knowledge gain (p=.024). Participants improved their recognition of elderspeak (21%) and person-centered communication (24%) in a video vignette and 86% self-reported improvement in their abilities to recognize ineffective communication and to apply more effective communication strategies in practice. A randomized control trial enrolled staff (N=187) in eight additional nursing homes. Preliminary results confirm improvements in test scores from M=70.6% correct (SD=15.8) at pretest to 77.2% correct (SD=14.1) on posttest and increased elderspeak recognition (p=.004). Relationships between nursing home characteristics, implementation strategies, and culture change measured by the Artifacts of Culture Change Tool and their relationship to communication outcomes will be presented.

Abstract:
Abstract Psychotropics use to manage behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) in nursing homes (NHs) has been the focus of policy attention due to their adverse effects. We hypothesized that NHs with lower nursing staffing would have greater reliance on psychotropics use to control BPSD. A NH deficiency of care can be cited for inappropriate psychotropics use (F-tag 758). The association between the occurrence of F-758 tags and nurse staffing in residents with dementia was examined using the 2017-18 Certification and Survey Provider Enhanced Reporting data (n=14,548 NHs). Staffing measures included nursing hours per resident day (HPRD) and registered nurse (RN) skill-mix. Generalized linear mixed models that included covariates (NH location, bed size, ownership, proportion of residents with dementia/depression/psychiatric disorders and with Medicare/Medicaid) estimated the magnitude of the associations. There were 1,872 NHs with F-758 tags indicating inappropriate psychotropics use for NH residents with dementia. NHs with greater RN and certified nurse assistant (CNA) HPRD had significantly lower odds of F-758 tags (OR=0.59 54, 95% CI=0.47 44-0.73 66; OR=0.87, 95% CI=0.77-0.99, respectively) and similar findings were found in NHs with greater RN skill-mix (OR=0.14 10, 95% CI=0.05 04-0.37 25). There were no significant associations between the occurrence of F-758 tags and licensed practice nurse and unlicensed nurse aide HPRD. This study found that RN and CNA staffing had inverse associations with inappropriate psychotropic use citations among residents with dementia. NHs with higher RN staffing ratios may be better able to implement alternatives to pharmacological approaches for BPSD. It is suggested that NHs be equipped with adequate nurse staffing levels to reduce unnecessary psychotropics use.

Abstract:
Abstract The proportion of nursing home (NH) residents that have serious mental illness (SMI) has increased over the least two decades. Residents with SMI tend be younger and have different medical needs than traditional residents. To better understand this population, our study examined the facility, staffing, and resident characteristics of NHs that were more likely to specialize in SMI. Utilizing the Certification and Survey Provider Enhanced Reports, low-SMI (N = 3,616) and high-SMI (N = 3,615) NHs were defined as the first and fourth quartile of the distribution of the proportion of SMI residents, respectively. We performed bivariate tests and multivariate logistic regression to compare facility, staffing, resident, and star-ratings characteristics between NHs. High-SMI NHs were less likely to be Not-For-Profit, have fewer beds, have more Medicaid-paying residents, lower registered nurse staffing, and lower certified nurse aide staffing levels (p’s&lt;.001). Residents in high-SMI NHs were more likely to require behavioral healthcare (p&lt;.001) and be treated with psychoactive medications (any psychoactive, antidepressants, antipsychotics, anxiolytics (p’s&lt;.001), hypnotics (p&lt;.01)). Finally, high-SMI facilities had lower overall quality, health inspection, quality measure, staffing, and registered nurse staffing star-ratings (p’s&lt;.001). High-SMI NHs have characteristics that are associated with lower quality-of-care (e.g., For-Profit, more Medicaid), lower staffing, prescribe more psychoactive medications, and have lower star-ratings. As the SMI population grows, large numbers of SMI residents will concentrate in a few NHs. While further research is needed to understand the implications of these trends, policy-makers must be aware of this population when affecting the resources and staffing of NHs.

Abstract:
The Pain Medication Questionnaire (PMQ), initially developed by Adams et al. (J Pain Symptom Manage. 2004; 27: 440-459), is a 26-item self-report assessment to screen for opioid-medication misuse. The PMQ has demonstrated good reliability and validity, and was predictive of early termination from treatment and identified patients who demonstrated maximal benefit from interdisciplinary treatment (Holmes et al. Pain Pract. 2006; 6: 74-88). This study was designed to further evaluate the validity of the PMQ by exploring whether the initial PMQ score would accurately predict the development of aberrant opioid-medication use behaviors relative to specific behavioral indices (ie, request for early refills, use of a medication agreement) and a physician rating of medication misuse behaviors. Patients were grouped according to the initial score on the PMQ based on the median score of 25. Patients with higher PMQ (H-PMQ) scores reported greater levels of perceived disability and decreased physical and mental functioning. Similar to earlier studies, total scores on the PMQ were moderately correlated with initial measures of physical and psychosocial functioning, and observed problematic medication use behaviors observed by physicians during evaluation. Furthermore, excessively high PMQ scores (≥30) were significantly associated with the need to use a medication agreement or requests for early refills. Five patients were identified from the H-PMQ group who demonstrated problematic opioid-medication use that fell outside of the realm of just early refill requests. Thus, although a PMQ total score ≥25 is indicative of problematic use, a score ≥30 suggests that a patient should be closely monitored when prescribed an opioid medication. Overall, this study again demonstrated that a patient’s self-report is significantly correlated with problematic behaviors observed by physicians. Therefore, when utilized in a busy clinic setting, the PMQ will aide in the identification of specific problematic behaviors and beliefs at the outset of treatment that may hinder successful treatment of a patient’s pain condition.

Abstract:
This study reviews due process hearing decisions from the years 2014 and 2015. This is primarily a legal analysis, specifically looking at legal and regulatory patterns regarding the provision of one-on-one special education aides for students with disabilities in general education settings. Our findings from the due process hearing decisions reveal that one-on-one aides for students with a wide variety of disabilities are being provided with greater frequency than we anticipated and that, specifically, behavioral aides are being provided for students with autism. Decisions of disabilities such as hearing impairment have higher provision rates, while other disabilities like autism and emotional disturbance do not see the same rate of provision. There are clear patterns of differences between the states in the number of cases that reach due process hearings and in the number of one-on-one aides provided.

Abstract:
Ce travail de recherche s’inscrit dans le champ de la communication engageante. Un certain nombre de travaux antérieurs se sont intéressés à la pratique de la communication engageante dans un contexte de face à face. La contribution de ce travail porte sur l’étude de la communication engageante dans un contexte de communication médiatisée par ordinateur. Véritable travail interdisciplinaire, il se situe au creuset de la psychologie sociale, des sciences de l’information et de la communication et de l’informatique. La question de recherche consiste à s’interroger sur la transposition des conditions et techniques de l’engagement dans des environnements numériques. Pour répondre à cette question, un travail de terrain a été réalisé sur le thème de l’humanitaire sur le web. Les stratégies de communications en ligne des organisations humanitaires ont été étudiées de façon approfondie. Par la suite un travail de terrain a été articulé autour de plusieurs expérimentations conduites en face à face puis en ligne dans un contexte humanitaire. Le choix a été fait de privilégier la production expérimentale dans des conditions naturelles. Si l’efficacité de la communication engageante est incontestable dans le cadre de la communication en face à face, les résultats sont moins probants dans le cadre des expérimentations conduites dans les environnements numériques. S’amorce alors une analyse critique permettant de mieux comprendre les raisons de ces résultats
This research is in the field of binding communications. A number of previous studies have focused on the practice of binding communications in the face-to-face setting. This research provides a contribution to the field with novel experiments of binding communication in the context of computer mediated communications. It is a true interdisciplinary research with foundations in social psychology, information communication sciences and information communication technology. The research question is to examine the implementation of binding communication techniques in the computer mediated setting. To answer this question, fieldwork was carried out on the theme of humanitarianism on the Web. The online communication strategies of popular humanitarian organizations have been extensively studied. Subsequently, fieldwork was structured around several experiments conducted in the face-to-face and online settings in a humanitarian context. The choice was made to focus our experimental studies in real world conditions as opposed to developing laboratory setting tests. If the effectiveness of binding communication strategies is undeniable in the face-to-face setting, the results are less convincing in our experiments conducted in the computer mediated environment. This research paves the way for future critical analyses needed in order to better understand the results obtained from our experimentations

Abstract:
Elder bullying is on the rise and occurs in many contexts such as senior living communities and nursing homes, causing concern for the well-being of the residents by families, staff, themselves, and society in general. Although research has been limited, it does reveal that resident-to-resident bullying in nursing homes is a problem warranting further scholarly attention. The purpose of this study was to investigate the experiences of certified nursing assistants (CNAs) regarding resident-to-resident bullying in nursing homes. The theory of reasoned action and the theory of reflective equilibrium provided a conceptual lens from which to explore and describe the importance of the CNAs' attitudes and behavior when recognizing, observing, and addressing bullying incidences. A phenomenological research design was employed. Using open-ended questions, 10 CNAs were individually interviewed. One major discovery of the study was that 100% of the CNAs interviewed indicated that they experienced resident-to-resident bullying and that it was a major problem in the nursing home. The findings of this study presented many possibilities for positive social change across all levels, from individuals and families to nursing home organizations and society as a whole, but most importantly, it increased awareness about bullying across nursing homes as the ultimate goal was for the improvement on the quality of life experienced by residents in nursing homes.

Abstract:
This study examined the effects of behavior change on psychological health among gay and bisexual men of Portland, Oregon who were at risk for contracting AIDS. Cross-sectional self-reports of personal experiences were obtained in Summer, 1991. Sexual behaviors were used as predictors of self-efficacy, depression, anxiety, and subjective well-being. Adopting safer sexual behaviors was psychologically more costly than continuing to engage in high risk behaviors, or long-term adherence to safer behaviors. Behaviors amenable to short-term change differed from those conducive to long-term maintenance. Behavior change was also found to have a beneficial effect on self-efficacy. These findings suggest that behavior change, traditionally considered as the endpoint of a process, might more appropriately be considered as an interim stage influenced by earlier, and having an influence on later, psychological health. By integrating models of behavior change from research on alcohol and drug use, smoking, and weight control, researchers studying AIDS-related behavior might better understand the place of behavior change in the process of change, relapse, and maintenance.

Abstract:
This study assessed the effectiveness of an HIV/AIDS psychoeducational intervention and skills training package for a high-risk group for HIV/AIDS, the chronic mentally ill. Twenty-seven participants were randomly assigned to either a treatment or no treatment control group. Elements of the intervention were (a) education about HIV transmission and high risk groups, (b) problem-solving skills training, and (c) behavioral skills training based on education needs identified in a previous study of the same population. Pretest and posttest measures were administered to both the treatment and control groups in order to assess differences and improvement. Results showed improvements from pretest to posttest in the treatment group's HIV/AIDS knowledge, behavioral and role-play skills in high-risk situations, self-efficacy in utilizing learned skills, and intention to use these skills. The same improvement did not occur in the control group. Follow-up data and implications of the study are discussed.

Abstract:
The incidence of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is on the increase across the world. The purpose of this study was to explore young children's awareness, knowledge, and understanding of AIDS in Bahrain, in the Arabian Gulf region. This was done within the framework of Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development, which spans development across time. Ninety-nine children aged 6 through 12 were administered a standardized interview to ascertain their knowledge about AIDS, its causes, outcomes, and prevention. The study explored whether knowledge about AIDS was related to age, gender, and parental education. It also examined the sources of children's knowledge. Correlational analyses, 1 tests, and frequency distributions were used to explore the questions. Knowledge about AIDS was related to age and gender, with older children having more knowledge than younger children, and girls having more knowledge than boys. The media and teachers were the significant sources of information about AIDS for the children.

A random sample of 365 students attending a university in northern Texas returned a mailed questionnaire measuring the students' knowledge of Acquired Immuno-Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), their perceived susceptibility to AIDS, and their sexual practices during the last year. The students had high knowledge levels about AIDS in general. However, 70% did not worry about getting AIDS. Collectively, there was a display of concern until it became a personal issue. The students (59%) saw themselves as less likely than most people to get AIDS. Although 70% of this sexually active group did not use condoms, they still did not perceive themselves as susceptible to AIDS.

Abstract:
This study used the Health Belief Model to examine the predictors of AIDS preventive behavior. The independent variables were the variables of individual perception, modifying factors (psychological variables), and likelihood variables. The respondents, the Taiwanese students of the University of North Texas, were influenced both by Chinese sexuality and Western values in their AIDS-risk behavior. The results revealed that 90% of the respondents were misinformed on the availability of AIDS vaccine. In addition, a majority of the students were either abstaining from sex or practicing monogamy. Using Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis, this study found that the psychological variables rather than cognitive variables significantly influenced the respondents' AIDS preventive behavior. Finally, suggestions were made for future research on AIDS, and for AIDS preventive behavior campaigns.

Abstract:
As of the end of 2010, .9% (20,093) of the inmate population under the care of the U.S. Federal Bureau of Prisons and 1.7% (2,394) of the inmate population under the care of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice were living with HIV/AIDS. The purpose of this quantitative correlational study was to analyze the relationships between HIV/AIDS status and former inmate demographic characteristics, intravenous drug use (IDU), and social support networks. The behavior models of importation and deprivation formed the theoretical frameworks used to explore the relationship between HIV/AIDS and behavioral risk factors for released Texas prison inmates. Fifty former prison inmates in Texas were recruited through Prison Talk, an online prison and family support community, and asked to complete a 57-item web-based survey on demographic characteristics, IDU, and social support networks. Spearman correlation and multiple logistic regression analyses were used to test potential relationships between risk factors. A significant negative correlation was found between African American race and HIV infection (rs = -.31, p < .05). A significant positive correlation was found between IDU and HIV infection (rs = .49, p < .001). Logistic regression analysis confirmed IDU as a significant predictor of HIV infection (B = 3.99, OR = 54.33, p < .05); access to or a desire for social support were not found to be significant predictors of HIV infection. Decreasing IDU among former prison inmates was shown to be an important step in HIV/AIDS prevention. Findings from the study can provide policy makers, legislators, prison administrators, educators, and researchers with insight into the factors that contribute to the prevalence of HIV/AIDS, possibly leading to positive social change by reducing the prevalence of HIV/AIDS among former prison inmates and their partners.

Abstract:
Abstract Understanding the kinematic properties of a compliant mechanism has always proved to be a challenge. A concept of compliance number offered earlier emphasized the development of terminology that aided in its determination. A method to evaluate the elastic degrees of freedom associated with the flexible segments/links of a compliant mechanism using the pseudo-rigid-body model (PRBM) concept is provided. In this process, two distinct classes of compliant mechanisms are developed involving: (i) Active Compliance and (ii) Passive Compliance. Furthermore, these also aid in a better characterization of the kinematic behavior of a compliant mechanism. A more lucid interpretation of the significance of compliance number is provided. Applications of this method to both active and passive compliant mechanisms are exemplified. Finally, an experimental procedure that aids in visualizing the degrees of freedom as calculated is presented.

Full text
Abstract:
Although knowledge about HIV/AIDS is widespread in South Africa, adult HIV prevalence is high, indicating high levels of risky sexual behavior. Understanding the gap between knowledge and behavior requires an examination of the social context in which the epidemic occurs. The Horizons Program conducted an intervention study in the Carletonville area to study the social determinants of the HIV epidemic and to assess the impact of a targeted program of HIV and STI prevention and service delivery. In 1998, the Mothusimpilo (“Working together for health”) Intervention Project (MIP) was launched to reduce community prevalence of HIV and other STIs and to sustain those reductions through enhanced prevention and STI treatment services. Carletonville includes many migrant mine workers and is characterized by significant poverty and unemployment, the presence of sex work, and high rates of STIs. MIP targets population groups where high-risk sexual behavior is thought to be common. This brief focuses on sex workers because of their vulnerability to STIs and HIV infection and their link to miners and men in the broader community.
