AbstractSociety is becoming increasingly dependent on survey research. However, surveys can be impacted by participants who are non-attentive, respond randomly to survey questions, and misrepresent who they are and their true attitudes. The impact that such respondents can have on public health research has rarely been systematically examined. In this study we examine whether Americans began to engage in dangerous cleaning practices to avoid Covid-19 infection. Prior findings reported by the CDC have suggested that people began to engage in highly dangerous cleaning practices during the Covid-19 pandemic, including ingesting household cleansers such as bleach. In a series of studies totaling close to 1400 respondents, we show that 80-90% of reports of household cleanser ingestion are made by problematic respondents. These respondents report impossible claims such as ‘recently having had a fatal heart attack’ and ‘eating concrete for its iron content’ at a similar rate to ingesting household cleaners. Additionally, respondents’ frequent misreading or misinterpreting the intent of questions accounted for the rest of such claims. Once inattentive, mischievous, and careless respondents are taken out of the analytic sample we find no evidence that people ingest cleansers to prevent Covid-19 infection. The relationship between dangerous cleaning practices and health outcomes also becomes non-significant once problematic respondents are taken out of the analytic sample. These results show that reported ingestion of household cleaners and other similar dangerous practices are an artifact of problematic respondent bias. The implications of these findings for public health and medical survey research, as well as best practices for avoiding problematic respondents in surveys are discussed.

<p>This conceptual article proposes a new research model to examine the relationship between Peer Group Interaction and Training Effectiveness. It is hypothesized that the relationship between Peer Group Interaction and Training Effectiveness will be moderated by conducive Transfer Climate and positive Training Motivation. The article begins with a description of the enormous investments done and the accompanying ambiguity in the field of Training and Development to establish the need for studying Training Effectiveness. Further, the theoretical background of each variable is explained in detail. Based on the recent studies in this field, alternate arguments are deduced and a new model for research is proposed. Finally, the plausible limitations of the proposed model is discussed and the article concludes by asserting that the variables in study are lesser focused but easier to implement in real time.</p>

Policy-makers ideally pursue well-informed, socially just means to make environmental decisions. Indigenous peoples have used Indigenous knowledge (IK) to inform decisions about environmental management for millennia. In the last 50 years, many western societies have used environmental assessment (EA) processes to deliberate on industrial proposals, informed by scientific information. Recently EA processes have attempted to incorporate IK in some countries and regions, but practitioners and scholars have criticized the ability of EA to meaningfully engage IK. Here we consider these tensions in Canada, a country with economic focus on resource extraction and unresolved government-to-government relationships with Indigenous Nations. In 2019, the Canadian government passed the Impact Assessment Act, reinvigorating dialogue on the relationship between IK and EA. Addressing this opportunity, we examined obstacles between IK and EA via a systematic literature review, and qualitative analyses of publications and the Act itself. Our results and synthesis identify obstacles preventing the Act from meaningfully engaging IK, some of which are surmountable (e.g., failures to engage best practices, financial limitations), whereas others are substantial (e.g., knowledge incompatibilities, effects of colonization). Finally, we offer recommendations for practitioners and scholars towards ameliorating relationships between IK and EA towards improved decision-making and recognition of Indigenous rights.

The study aimed to identify the reality of verbal sexual harassment in the cyberspace of Tawjihi students from the point of view of specialists and counselors. The researcher used the qualitative approach, and the study population consisted of a random sample of 30 specialists and counselors. The researcher used the interview as a study tool, which consisted of two (2) questions. The first paragraph includes questions about the spread of the phenomenon, consisting of (4) areas (definition, spread, causes, technology), and the second paragraph on the mechanism of reducing it, consisting of (6) areas (education, family - parents, school curriculum, authority institutions ,victims of the phenomenon, groups of the influence). After using the interviews and analyzing them, the results of the study showed that the estimates of the sample members have linked education and verbal sexual harassment, so that the relationship was inverse, that is, the greater the awareness of the lack of verbal sexual harassment. in favor of females. This study also dealt with the impact of the Corona epidemic on the spread of this phenomenon in a very wide way, in the years 2018-2020. The recommendations came to the need to monitor budgets by the authority, to hold courses and workshops throughout the year, to establish an educational and deterrent committee, to include the subject of verbal sexual harassment in the school curriculum, to monitor its implementation throughout the year, and to listen to the reactions of students and parents after the end of the first semester of the year, It is the application of education curriculum of sexual harassment over the network‎.

This article has two purposes: (a) to examine the relationship between intercultural power relations and the widespread practice of accent discrimination and (b) to underscore the ramifications of accent discrimination both for the individual and for global society as a whole. First, authors review social theory regarding language and group identity construction, and then go on to integrate more current studies linking accent bias to sociocultural variables. Authors discuss three examples of intercultural accent discrimination in order to illustrate how this link manifests itself in the broader context of international relations (i.e., how accent discrimination is generated in situations of unequal power) and, using a review of current research, assess the consequences of accent discrimination for the individual. Finally, the article highlights the impact that linguistic discrimination is having on linguistic diversity globally, partially using data from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and partially by offering a potential context for interpreting the emergence of practices that seek to reduce or modify speaker accents.

Abstract Administrators and supervisors face daily challenges over issues such as program funding, service fees, correct coding procedures, and the ever-changing healthcare regulations. Receiving equitable reimbursement for speech-language pathology and audiology services necessitates an understanding of federal coding and reimbursement systems. This tutorial provides information pertaining to two major healthcare coding systems and explains the relationship of these systems to clinical documentation, the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule and equitable reimbursement. An explanation of coding edits and coding modifiers is provided for use in those occasional atypical situations when the standard use of procedural coding may not be appropriate. Also included in this tutorial is a brief discussion of the impact that the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act of 2008 (HR 6331 Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act [MIPPA], 2008) has had on the valuation of speech-language pathology procedure codes.
