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<.001). Residents in high-SMI NHs were more likely to require behavioral healthcare (p<.001) and be treated with psychoactive medications (any psychoactive, antidepressants, antipsychotics, anxiolytics (p’s<.001), hypnotics (p<.01)). Finally, high-SMI facilities had lower overall quality, health inspection, quality measure, staffing, and registered nurse staffing star-ratings (p’s<.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.

"An evaluation of the predictive validity of the Pain Medication Questionnaire with a heterogeneous group of patients with chronic pain."

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:

Patients suffering from conductive or mixed hearing loss may benefit from bone-conduction hearing systems (BAHS). The amount of amplification provided by the hearing system is selected based on the individual’s sensorineural frequency-specific threshold. With patients who are not able to provide thresholds behaviorally, such as young children, objective methods are required to estimate the unaided and aided hearing threshold and thus the success of the hearing system fitting. In a prospective study with ten adult Baha softband users, aided and unaided frequency-specific thresholds were estimated. Aided thresholds to tone bursts via Baha stimulation were obtained behaviorally and electrophysiologically using cortical auditory evoked potentials (CAEPs) and were compared to pure-tone thresholds using routine clinical audiometry. For all stimulation frequencies, the frequency-specific electrophysiological and behavioral hearing thresholds measured with Baha stimulation were highly correlated and not different. Increased thresholds were observed only with the 0.5 kHz Baha stimulation as compared to the pure-tone audiogram. Objective measurement of frequency-specific hearing thresholds with CAEPs is applicable to BAHS users.

Abstract:

AbstractIn the king penguin, during the three months of incubation and the brooding stage, members of a pair alternate care duties on land with foraging trips. Contrary to most of the species of birds that nest at a fixed location, the king penguin carries its egg on its feet during incubation. This allows the incubating parents to move in the colony. Brooding or incubating parents moved on average 4.4 meters between egg-laying and the end of the brooding stage. This movement in a group of thousands of other birds reduced the reliability of visual cues for recovering the pair mate during the change-over. We showed that the difficulty in relocating the mate was more important during the brooding stage than during incubating. We confirmed earlier findings that acoustic communication was the main mode of communication during a change-over, and showed that the omnidirectional properties of sound allowed birds to reach more than five hundred other birds with each emitted call. Our experiments proved that the communication system is performed at short or medium range. On average, the birds identified their mate at a distance of 8.8 m. Seventy percent of the birds started the acoustic search of their mate when the distance was shorter or equal to this discrimination range, and so acoustic communication is a particularly efficient strategy in the king penguin. Chez le manchot royal (Aptenodytes patagonicus) le male et la femelle participent tous deux a l'incubation et a l'elevage du poussin. Si en general les oiseaux possedent un nid dont la position fixe aide les deux partenaires a se retrouver lors des releves, le manchot royal est une des rares especes sans nid. En effet, l'adulte incube et protege son oeuf ou son poussin sur ses pattes ce qui lui permet de se deplacer dans la colonie. Nous avons mesure un deplacement moyen de 4.4 metres entre le moment de la ponte et la fin de l'elevage individuel. Ce deplacement parmis des milliers d'autres oiseaux morphologiquement semblables rend tous reperes visuels inutilisables lors des releves entre male et femelle. Pour se reconnaitre individuellement, les manchots utilisent une signature acoustique. Nous avons montre que les proprietes omnidirectionelles du son permettent au manchot qui cherche son partenaire de communiquer potentiellement avec plus de 500 oiseaux pour chaque chant emis. La degradation rapide de la signature lors de la propagation du signal dans la colonie ne permet pas une communication a longue distance: les oiseaux identifient le chant de leur partenaires a une distance moyenne de 8.8 metres. La majorite des manchots royaux (70%) commencent a chanter a une distance inferieure ou egale a la portee du signal ce qui revele une strategie de communication particulierement efficace.

Abstract:

Objective: A series of experiments examined human operators’ strategies for interacting with highly (93%) reliable automated decision aids in a binary signal detection task. Background: Operators often interact with automated decision aids in a suboptimal way, achieving performance levels lower than predicted by a statistically ideal model of information integration. To better understand operators’ inefficient use of decision aids, we compared participants’ automation-aided performance levels with the predictions of seven statistical models of collaborative decision making. Method: Participants performed a binary signal detection task that asked them to classify random dot images as either blue or orange dominant. They made their judgments either unaided or with assistance from a 93% reliable automated decision aid that provided either graded (Experiments 1 and 3) or binary (Experiment 2) cues. We compared automation-aided performance with the predictions of seven statistical models of collaborative decision making, including a statistically optimal model and Robinson and Sorkin’s contingent criterion model. Results and Conclusion: Automation-aided sensitivity hewed closest to the predictions of the two least efficient collaborative models, well short of statistically ideal levels. Performance was similar whether the aid provided graded or binary judgments. Model comparisons identified potential strategies by which participants integrated their judgments with the aid’s. Application: Results lend insight into participants’ automation-aided decision strategies and provide benchmarks for predicting automation-aided performance levels.

Abstract:

The advent of personal digital assistants (PDAs) at the turn of this century opened new doors to functional independence for people with cognitive impairment. Pocket-sized electronic reminders helped people keep appointments, take medications on time, and move from task to task across a busy day, often without the need for human supervision. As these tools have evolved into smartphones and tablets sporting multiple applications (apps), their uses as assistive technology have expanded to behavioral coaching, augmentative communication, and telehealth purposes, among many others. With so many choices, selecting an appropriate device and app suite for a particular user can seem daunting, but a stepwise, theoretically-based assessment process, a focus on essential intervention strategies, and a willingness to adapt to new devices and changing user needs, can provide important supports for people with cognitive-behavioral challenges.

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to assess secondary school teachers' comfort in teaching adolescents about sexuality and HIV/AIDS, behavioral control and outcome beliefs about HIV/AIDS education and teacher knowledge about HIV/AIDS. The sample consisted of 54 male (35.6%) and 96 female (64.4%) secondary school teachers who were mostly life skills teachers, from 150 schools across South Africa. Findings suggest that most secondary school teachers, are knowledgeable about AIDS, feel moderately comfortable teaching students about AIDS-related topics, have the knowledge and ability to teach about HIV/AIDS, but lack some material and community support. Teacher in-service training was found to have a significant impact on perceived behavioral control of HIV/AIDS education and HIV/AIDS knowledge.

Abstract:

In spite of integrating HIV/AIDS education in South African curricula the prevalence of HIV in 2016 was the highest since 2002. HIV infection rate is particularly high among schoolgirls compared with boys. Using a closed-ended questionnaire, this quantitative survey research compared Biology and non-Biology schoolgirls’ (n=291) behavioural intention, Health Literacy and HIV/AIDS Literacy to determine if enrolling for Biology, and subsequently learning about the scientific nature of HIV/AIDS would reduce risk behaviour among schoolgirls. Results indicate that Biology students have higher Health Literacy and HIV/AIDS Literacy than non-Biology students. The behavioural intentions of both groups were not significantly different. Health Literacy and HIV/AIDS Literacy did not correlate significantly with behavioural intention, which were indicative of risk behaviour. These findings suggest that enrolling for Biology and other science subjects and subsequently learning about HIV/AIDS may not reduce risk behaviour among schoolgirls. Keywords: behavioural intention, biology students, health literacy, HIV/AIDS literacy, South African schoolgirls.

Abstract:

Hearing improvement represents one of the may valuable outcomes in microtia and aural atresia reconstruction surgery. Most patients with poor development in their hearing function have had a severe microtia. Conventional methods to improve hearing function are bone conduction and bone anchored hearing aids. Cartilage conduction hearing aids (CCHA) represents a new amplification method. This study assessed the outcomes and evaluated the impact and its safety in the patients with microtia and aural atresia whose hearing dysfunction did not improve after surgery for ear reconstruction in our hospital. Hearing functions were evaluated with pure tone audiometry or sound field testing by behavioral audiometry and speech audiometry before and after CCHA fitting. As a result, there was a significant difference between unaided and aided thresholds (p < 0.001). Speech recognition threshold and speech discrimination level also significantly improved with CCHA. The average functional gains of 14 ears were 26.9 ± 2.3 dB. Almost all parents of the patients reported satisfaction with the performance of CCHA, and daily communication in children with hearing loss also became better than usual.

Abstract:

Since its recognition in the early 1980s, the global HIV/AIDS pandemic has continued to grow relentlessly. Early efforts in HIV prevention sought to influence behavior by providing information about the dangers of AIDS along with recommendations for safe behavior. This approach helped to alert people about AIDS, but was insufficient to promote or sustain behavioral change.The second approach attempted to promote individual behavioral change by designing AIDS programs that would deliver a mix of information, materials, and services. This program-based approach emerged within communities, was gradually adopted by some countries, and was subsequently articulated by the World Health Organization as the first Global AIDS Strategy. The emphasis during this period was to ensure that each community and country developed its own comprehensive program by adapting a global model to local and national circumstances.

Abstract:

Computer-aided conceptual design of mechatronic products is becoming more and more important since it offers much convenience in design scheme retrieval and enhances the utilization of existing designs. One of the key technologies for computer-aided conceptual design is an efficient search algorithm for retrieving existing designs. As such, it’s necessary to find a feasible way to select the most suitable design out of a number of candidates for further development. By applying behavioral modeling method for representation of conceptual design, this paper proposes a node matching algorithm for searching behavioral model, together with a model similarity evaluation method. Based on these methods, a framework for computer-aided conceptual design is subsequently proposed. Finally, a case study is presented to illustrate the applicability of the proposed methodologies.

Abstract:

Existing behavioral studies have suggested that individuals with early life stress usually show abnormal emotional processing. However, limited event-related brain potentials (ERPs) evidence was available to explore the emotional processes in children orphaned by parental HIV/AIDS (“AIDS orphans”). The current study aims to investigate whether there are behavioral and neurological obstacles in the recognition of emotional faces in AIDS orphans and also to further explore the processing stage at which the difference in facial emotion recognition exists. A total of 81 AIDS orphans and 60 non-orphan children were recruited through the local communities and school systems in Henan, China. Participants completed a computer version of the rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) task while recording ERPs. Behavioral results showed that orphans displayed higher response accuracy and shorter reaction time than the control (ps < 0.05). As for the ERPs analysis, the attenuated amplitude of N170 (i.e., an early component sensitive to facial configuration) was observed in AIDS orphans compared to the non-orphan control with happy and neutral faces; P300 (i.e., an endogenous component for affective valence evaluation in emotional processing) also showed significant differences in parietal lobe between groups, the non-orphan control group produced larger P300 amplitudes than orphans (p < 0.05). The results suggested that compared to the control group, AIDS orphans showed impaired facial emotion recognition ability with reduced brain activation.

Abstract:

Rose and Wolfe (2000) demonstrated that decision aid design is critical to learning from decision aids, and aids that produce less cognitive load result in superior learning by aid users compared to aids that produce more cognitive load. The current research investigates whether a tax decision aid has differential affects on the knowledge acquisition of accounting students with varying perceived aptitudes for tax and interest in tax as a career. Results indicate that participants with more interest in and perceived aptitude for tax acquire more tax-related knowledge during manual task completion than participants with less perceived aptitude and interest. Similar to prior research, decision aids generally decrease learning relative to unaided environments. When decision aids do not produce a heavy cognitive load, however, participants with less perceived aptitude for and interest in tax learn as much in aided environments as they learn in unaided environments.

Abstract:

The objective of this study was to evaluate the patterns of mobile phone use among in secondary school students. Further, we assessed psychological (anxiety, depression) and behavioral correlates and association with school performance. To carry out the study we had 528 students, aged between 12 and 19 years, belonging to five schools, four public and one grant-aided private school. The instruments used were the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), the low self-esteem and the school problems subscales of the MMPI-A Personality Questionnaire, and the Mobile Overuse Scale (COS). The results indicate that a significant percentage of students who abuse cell-phones show anxious and depressive symptoms, and low self-esteem. Of participants, 14.8% obtained scores placing them in a range of medium-high to high for school problems associated to pathological use of the mobile phone. All these results highlight the need to establish interventions to reduce maladjusted behavioural patterns and improve school coexistence.
