In an age of information overload, misinformation poses a growing threat to democracy. Inoculation theory suggests that exposing individuals manipulation techniques can help build resistance and improve their ability discernment such content over time. However, little research has directly compared the effectiveness active learning tools, as gamified interventions, passive methods, like informational guides, for enhancing detection within important public issues, elections climate change. To...
The growing prevalence of conspiracy theories, fueled by pervasive misinformation (1) and declining trust (2), has raised concerns about their societal impact. Thus, it become increasingly necessary to determine the antecedents conspiratorial beliefs. While existing literature links some personality traits with conspiracist ideation beliefs, findings remain disparate limited field research. To better understand associated traits, we conducted a study in which recruited both theorists...
Prior research highlights the disparity in wealth-building activity participation among lower-to-middle-income (LMI) households, resulting issues like racial wealth gap. This presents an opportunity to improve how financial institutions offer products through proven strategies such as warm handoffs.In collaboration with a debt management and services company, we conducted field experiment testing impact of handoff process. culminated engage advisor call for further guidance on next steps...
The present study investigated the effects of 16 weeks small-volume, small-sided soccer training group (SG, n = 13) and oscillating whole-body vibration (VG, 17) on body composition, aerobic fitness, muscle PCr kinetics in healthy inactive premenopausal women comparison with an control (CO, 14). Training for SG VG consisted twice-weekly 15-min sessions average heart rates (HRs) ∼155 90 bpm respectively. Pre- post-measurements composition (DXA), phosphocreatine (PCr) on- off-kinetics, HR...
Introduction: Bone mineral density (BMD) measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the primary screening tool for diagnosis of osteopenia and osteoporosis. BMD alone does not provide information regarding structural characteristics bone this limitation has been a driver development techniques, including trabecular score (TBS) software, to assess microarchitecture. Precision error in DXA important accurately monitoring changes it demonstrated that precision increases with...
Background Compassion is a poorly understood concept in medical Imaging research, but an increase its focus was recommended the Francis Report (2013). Little research has been conducted this area to date. Methods The project from within constructivist paradigm with appropriate ethical approval. As part of wider doctoral study, data were harvested Twitter journal club discussion between imaging professionals author's published literature review and one group post-graduate radiographers. Data...
Objective: To investigate: the accuracy of measuring relative left/right weight-bearing using two identically calibrated weighing scales; short-term tendencies in a general population 9 participants and long-term 42 females; effect inequalities on hip bone mineral density leg lean tissue mass.Method: Participants were measured standing astride scales.Short-term volunteers 10 times one visit, with repositioning between measurements group three visits at 6 month intervals.Baseline bilateral...
Introduction When horses are trotted in‐hand, this is predominantly performed with the handler on horse's left side. In context of objective gait analysis, study investigated whether side a horse led from affects movement symmetry measures used to quantify lameness. We hypothesised that which were handled would have no effect head and pelvic symmetry. Methods Vertical pelvis was quantified in 23 during trot in‐hand validated inertial sensor analysis system. Established commonly lameness...
Reasons for performing study Horseshoe studs are commonly used to increase traction between the foot and ground in competition horses. Here we investigate question of how hindlimb alter limb function by quantifying upper body kinematics during circular motion (lungeing). Objectives This quantified effects placed hind shoes on head pelvic movement symmetry parameters objective assessment lameness. Study design Prospective longitudinal interventional study. Methods 15 horses were trotted...
