Abstract Citizen science (CS) can foster transformative impact for science, citizen empowerment and socio-political processes. To unleash this impact, a clearer understanding of its current status challenges development is needed. Using quantitative indicators developed in collaborative stakeholder process, our study provides comprehensive overview the CS Germany, Austria Switzerland. Our online survey with 340 responses focused on through (1) scientific practices, (2) participant learning...
The indirect impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cancer care and timely diagnosis is increasing concern. We investigated incidence, time delivery healthcare among paediatric oncology patients in Germany 2020. analysed incident cases diagnosed 0- to 17-year olds 2020 using data German Childhood Cancer Registry. Absolute numbers age-standardised incidence rates (ASR) were compared previous five years (2015–2019). Moreover, we conducted a survey with open-ended questions, gathering perceptions...
As the climate and environmental crises unfold, eco-anxiety, defined as anxiety about crises' devastating consequences for life on earth, affects mental health worldwide. Despite its importance, research eco-anxiety is currently limited by a lack of validated assessment instruments available in different languages. Recently, Hogg colleagues proposed multidimensional approach to assess eco-anxiety. Here, we aim translate original English Eco-Anxiety Scale (HEAS) into German reliability...
