    Abstract: Combining conceptual perspectives from emerging research on COVID-19, safety-seeking motivations, and extremeness aversion in choice (i.e., compromise effects), we examine how and why the perceived threat of COVID-19 affects consumers’ choice and decision making in the hotel and restaurant domains. Across seven studies (two studies from secondary data sets and five experimental studies), we provide novel evidence that the perceived threat or threat salience of COVID-19 amplifies the general tendency to select compromise options, avoiding extreme ones, within a choice set. We highlight the role of safety-seeking motivations as the underlying mechanism in the relationship between perceived threat and extremeness aversion in choice. We further document a boundary condition that the extremeness aversion effect is stronger for leisure travelers than for business travelers.

    Abstract: This study aimed to identify the specific relationship between subdomains of religious variables and cognitive functions in outpatients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Methods: We recruited 325 patients with AD from a psychiatry outpatient clinic. The Korean version of the Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer’s Disease and the Duke University Religion Index were used to assess cognitive functions and religiosity. We performed structural equation modeling and partial correlation analysis after controlling for demographic data. Results: The model in which religiosity beneficially affects cognitive functions showed acceptable model fit (root-mean-square error of approximation = 0.076, Tucker-Lewis index = 0.921, comparative fit index = 0.947). In the partial correlation analysis, organizational religious activity demonstrated positive relationships with memory ( r = 0.144, P = .010), language ( r = 0.149, P = .007), and constructional ability ( r = 0.191 P = .001). Nonorganizational religious activity and intrinsic religiosity were positively associated with memory ( r = 0.115, P = .040; r = 0.140, P = .012) and constructional ability ( r = 0.207, P = .000; r = 0.136, P = .015). Conclusions: The findings suggest that religiosity positively affects cognitive functions and that each religious variable is related differently to the subdomains of cognitive functions in patients with AD.

    Abstract: Health care providers in emergency medical centres often encounter infected sources during medical procedures; these sources can generate droplets. Wearing respirators could help to protect against infection risk. However, to the best of our knowledge, no previous study has reported the efficacy of N95 or higher respirators for health care providers in emergency medical centres. Methods: A randomized, crossover study of 26 health care providers was conducted to examine the protective performance of respirators. Quantitative fit tests with three types of respirators (cup type, fold type without valve and fold type with valve) were performed using seven exercises. Primary outcomes were the fit factors. Secondary outcomes included the percentage of fit factors above 100 and respirator preference. Results: After excluding one participant, data for 25 participants were analysed. The fit factors and the percentage of fit factors above 100 were higher when participants wore a fold-type respirator (200 fit factors [38.6–200], 100% [0–100] ) relative to those for the cup-type respirator (114.0 fit factors [16.0–185.2], 60% [0–100] ) and valve-type respirator (84.9 fit factors [14.2–170.8], 23.8 % [0–100] ) in normal respiration. There was no clear preference regarding the type of respirator. Conclusion: The type of respirator could influence protective performance for health care providers. Health care providers in emergency medical centres should be aware of and wear the type of respirator that is well-fitted for them in advance.

    Abstract: The purpose of this study was to validate the Adapted Inventory of Virtues and Strengths (AIVS). AIVS is a unique instrument that operationalizes virtues in terms of character traits that are specially designed for psychosocial adaptation and rehabilitation. Data were collected from 464 individuals with disabilities and analyzed via the combination of exploratory ( n = 256) and confirmatory analyses ( n = 208). Although the results suggest dropping some items, the original five-virtue structure was supported and confirmed via both analyses. The construct validity of AIVS was further analyzed via correlation analyses between AIVS and other measures, including Values in Action Inventory of Strengths 72-Item, Satisfaction with Life Scale, Connor-Davison Resilience Scale, and General Self-Efficacy Scale. The results suggest that with continuing research to document reliability and validity, AIVS has potential in the context of rehabilitation research. Further discussion on psychometric information of AIVS and future implications were presented.

    Abstract: Mobile phones/devices are an important part of our daily lives for sighted people and those with visual impairment (VI) in India. This study explores how Indian university students use and perceive mobile apps and identify the challenges in their usage. A paper-based survey was administered for 124 college students who were legally blind. The survey had items relating to sociodemographic information, use of mobile devices and apps, and the use of apps specifically designed for persons with VI. Results show that, on average, the participants with VI have been using a mobile device for more than 5 years. Many participants used Android devices and free apps. In addition, they found that the mobile apps were user-friendly and accessible. Results also found that Facebook and WhatsApp are more frequently used. Participants had a high level of self-efficacy and positive attitudes toward special apps for VI. Android devices are popular in India because of lower cost compared to iOS devices. Results are discussed, and implications for practice are provided.

    Abstract: This study examined the prevalence of completion of advance directives (ADs) and the effects of race/ethnicity on AD completion using a cross-sectional design. Low-income older adults (n = 256) who were residents of supportive housing facilities or members of a senior center were interviewed in person. About 20% of the participants had completed ADs. Knowledge and attitudes toward ADs, income, and previous experience in an intensive care unit significantly predicted the completion of ADs after controlling for other factors. Those with higher levels of knowledge, positive attitudes, or those with higher incomes were more likely to complete ADs than their counterparts. Findings suggest that as a proxy for multiple socioeconomic, social and cultural factors, race, and ethnicity need to be considered in planning end-of-life care.

    Abstract: This study examined, using data from the National Longitudinal Transition Study–2, the impact of constructs associated with self-determination (i.e., autonomy, self-realization, and psychological empowerment measured while youth were in secondary school) on postschool—(a) employment and payment/benefits, (b) education, (c) independent living, and (d) social engagement—outcomes. Findings suggest that up to 8 years after youth exited school, autonomy, self-realization, and psychological empowerment predict postschool outcomes. Psychological empowerment showed a strong relationship with employment wages and benefits, and autonomy and self-realization contributed to predicting independent living and postsecondary education enrollment. Implications for future research and practice are discussed.

    Abstract: Patients scheduled for microsurgical reconstruction of the lower leg often receive preoperative assessment of recipient vessels using angiography. However, no clear standard is available for evaluating angiographic results to predict free-flap survival outcomes. We developed angiographic criteria for predicting surgical outcome in patients with lower-extremity peripheral arterial disease based on abnormality of the anterior tibial and posterior tibial arteries. We applied the criteria to a small number of patients scheduled for microsurgical reconstruction of the lower leg. Angiographies with arterial abnormalities were classified into 3 groups: favorable free-flap survival, compromised free-flap survival, and postsurgical pedal ischemia. The study enrolled 50 patients between 2005 and 2013. In 42% of patients, arterial abnormalities were observed by angiography. Age 〉 65 years was the strongest risk factor for development of lower-leg arterial abnormality ( P 〈 .001). The anterior tibial and peroneal arteries were significantly more stenotic than other vessels. In the favorable free-flap survival and compromised free-flap survival groups, free-flap transfers were attempted in 7 patients but intraoperatively abandoned in 2 patients, with postoperative failure in 1 patient. In the postsurgical pedal ischemia group, free-flap transfers were attempted in 10 patients but intraoperatively abandoned in 6 patients, with postoperative failure in 3.

    Abstract: Social media platforms have broadened the scope of voices responding to social justice movements, significantly impacting public conversations of important social justice issues. This social network analysis examined hashtags that were invoked on Twitter in the aftermath of the Mike Brown shooting in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson in 2014. From the millions of tweets globally, the use of specific hashtags appeared to focus the conversation on Twitter toward the personal meaning of story events and framed the shooting as something relatable to the posters’ own lives and experiences.

    Abstract: Information on cardiac contractility is very important in resuscitation of critically ill patients. However, the measurement of ejection fractions by echocardiography is very difficult to perform for non-cardiologists. We developed a video clip to train emergency medicine residents to measure visual ejection fraction and compared the improvement in their interpretation ability with that following the conventional training method. Objectives: Improvement of interpreting ability of vEF in short period. Methods: A total of 27 multicentre emergency medicine residents were recruited and divided into conventional training group (N = 13) and video clip training group (N = 14). Self-training was done for 1 week. Pre-test and post-test comprising 20 questions were used for evaluation, and scores and interpretation time were recorded. Results: The score of the video clip training group showed a statistically significant improvement in contrast to the conventional training group (the score of pre- and post-test, ±5% scoring method: correct answer; video clip training group, 5.4/20 to 10.4/20 ( p  〈  0.001) versus conventional training group, 5.8/20 to 6.7/20 ( p = 0.204)). Furthermore, there was a statistically significant reduction in the interpretation time (interpretation time of video clip training group, 417.7–358.8 s ( p = 0.005) versus conventional training group, 416.8–411.5 s ( p = 0. 497)). Conclusion: In the video clip training group, interpretation accuracy improved, and the interpretation time was shorter than that of the conventional training group. Based on these results, we conclude that improvement in the visual ejection fraction interpretation ability by emergency medicine residents can be expected.
