The relationship between anxious/depressed traits and neuromaturation remains largely unstudied. Characterizing this during healthy neurodevelopment is critical to understanding processes associated with the emergence of child/adolescent onset mood/anxiety disorders. In study, mixed-effects models were used determine longitudinal cortical thickness correlates Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) Young Adult Self Report Anxious/Depressed scores in children. Analyses included 341 subjects from 4.9...
Difficulties in emotion regulation have been implicated as a potential mechanism underlying anxiety and mood disorders. It is possible that sex differences may contribute towards the heightened female prevalence for these Previous fMRI studies of shown mixed results, possibly due to difficulties discriminating component processes early emotional reactivity regulation. The present study used event-related potentials (ERPs) examine N1 N2 components (reflecting reactivity) P3 LPP regulation)....
It has been argued that consuming alcohol mixed with energy drinks (AmED) causes a subjective underestimation of intoxication and an increased level risk-taking behavior. To date, however, there is support for AmED-induced reductions in perceived intoxication, no objective assessment following AmED consumption. Consequently, the present study aimed to determine effect drink (ED) consumption on measures risk-taking.Using placebo-controlled, single-blind, cross-over design, participants (n =...
Objectives Dementia prevalence and the demand for dementia care are increasing. Informal caregiving accounts a large proportion of care, but can come at high cost caregivers. caregivers higher risk mental health problems than general population. This study examines whether perceived change in leisure activities is one working mechanism linking stress burden experience to lower (depressive symptoms, anxiety reduced satisfaction with life), there group-based that buffer this detrimental...
This study investigated gender differences in two key processes involved anxiety, arousal and attentional bias towards threat. Arousal was assessed using salivary alpha-amylase (sAA), a biomarker of noradrenergic attention dot-probe task. Twenty-nine women 27 men completed the task provided saliva samples before after stress induction [cold pressor (CPS) test]. Women displayed significant increase (sAA) following stressor compared to men, who reduction arousal. Reaction time data revealed...
COVID-19 has significantly impacted teaching and learning in higher education, leading institutions to embrace Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT) response school university closure. A systematic review research methodology was used identify, analyse synthesise literature on professional development education published between 2010 2020. Following an inductive thematic analysis, the authors identified four themes that represent literature: approaches, delivery modes, design features...
Abstract Background Formative online multiple‐choice tests are ubiquitous in higher education and potentially powerful learning tools. However, commonly used feedback approaches can discourage meaningful engagement enable strategies, such as trial‐and‐error, that circumvent intended outcomes. These strategies will not prepare graduates self‐regulated learners, nor for the complexities of contemporary work settings. Objectives To investigate whether providing only a score after formative test...

Students are increasingly diverse, with traditional pedagogies and instructional approaches lacking effectiveness in engaging a variety of student cohorts. This study takes behavioural approach to examining students the classroom, seeking better understand relationships between authentic leadership, wellbeing, belonging, engagement among an Australian Associate Degree program. paper reports on quantitative survey conducted at beginning teaching period, longitudinal data points expected as...
Health professionals need accurate basic information about HIV disease as well clinical research updates; earlier suggests that alone seldom changes practice behavior. This paper explores the consequences of a comprehensive training package offered by an AIDS Education and Training Center, including exploration provider behavior change result training. Follow-up telephone interviews were conducted with 66 program participants average 9 months after Respondents reported opinions educational...
This article presents a method to evaluate undergraduate and postgraduate course teaching efficiency systematically, alongside measuring effectiveness of curriculum content delivery. We argue that is aligned cost revenue while quality-related construct. These potentially antagonistic elements – cost, quality must be kept in balance if courses are attractive students (high quality) financially viable. Curriculum data collection analysis spanned micro (unit), meso (course) macro (faculty)...
Of critical importance to the financial viability of any home health agency are its productivity standards for staff. The authors discuss results a study that analyzed staff time spent in direct patient care, documentation travel, and other activities, how resulting data influenced operations.
