Young drivers are overrepresented in motor vehicle crashes, and are shown to be poorer at anticipating potential threats on the roadway compared with their more experienced peers. Literature demonstrates the effectiveness of driver training programs at improving young drivers’ latent hazard anticipation performance. Various hazard anticipation training studies have been undertaken on different population demographics using different training scenario presentation modes and multiple evaluation testbeds. These error-based feedback training programs (3M) allow trainees to make a mistake, show them how to mediate the mistake, and provide an opportunity to master the target skills. The current meta-analytical review focused on 19 peer-reviewed training studies that utilized eye movements to measure improvements in drivers’ latent hazard anticipation performance following training. The role of four moderating factors (mode of delivery – PC-based or non PC-based; presentation of training – egocentric or exocentric; method of evaluation – on-road or driving simulator; and age of sample – teen novices aged 16–17 or young drivers aged 18–21) on the training effects were explored. Overall, the current meta-analysis suggest that: (a) superficial improvements in training programs does not necessarily further improve the drivers’ latent hazard anticipation; (b) drivers who completed a training program with both egocentric and exocentric training views achieved greater levels of latent hazard anticipation performance than those who completed a training program that contained either view, but not both; and (c) the effect sizes of the 3M-based training programs on latent hazard anticipation were greater for drivers aged 18–21 years than drivers aged 16–17.

Abstract BackgroundBreast cancer has now overtaken lung cancer as the world’s mostly commonly-diagnosed cancer. With the increasing prevalence of breast cancer, the psychological problems of breast cancer patients have also received more and more attention from scholars. The aim of our study was to synthesis the available research evidence on the effectiveness of interventions designed to promote or enhance the resilience of breast cancer patients.MethodsWe performed a systematic and comprehensive search of 12 databases from inception to February 4,2021: Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, MEDLINE, Scopus, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China Biology Medicine disc (CBM), WanFang and VIP. We conducted a comprehensive qualification screening of the retrieved records and analysed all the included data using Review Manager Version 5.3 and STATA/SE Version 15.1.ResultsA total of 23 RCTs involving 2,002 women with stage I-Ⅳ breast cancer met the eligibility criteria and 15 of them were included in the meta-analysis. The results showed that the effectiveness of resilience training program (SMD = 0.89; 95% CI 0.54, 1.24; p < 0.00001), health education delivered via mobile devices (SMD = 1.84; 95% CI 0.86, 2.82; p = 0.0002) and peer support (SMD = 2.62; 95% CI 0.61, 4.63; p = 0.01) in the experimental groups was better than that of the control groups. Furthermore, there were seven other kind of interventions which might contribute to improve resilience but with very few evidences available.ConclusionOur findings suggest that resilience training program, health education delivered via mobile devices and peer support are more effective than that of the routine nursing care in improving the resilience of breast cancer patients. In addition, this study cannot draw definitive conclusions regarding the effectiveness of other seven kind of interventions because the sample size in the included is small and cannot be conducted in the meta-analysis. More studies are needed in the future to clarify the effectiveness of these interventions.

The auto-regulation method is a rising training strategy to improve strength and motor performance, and the Autoregulatory Progressive Resistance Exercise (APRE), Rating of Perceived Exertion program (RPE), and Velocity-Based Training (VBT) are the three common auto-regulation programs. However, whether the auto-regulation method is more effective than the traditional strength training (the fixed-loading method) in maximum strength training is still unclear. The present study searched the Pubmed, SPORTDiscus, Web of Science, Embase, EBSCO, Cochrane, CNKI, and CQVIP databases, and included eight related studies published between 2010 and 2020, with a total of 166 subjects including division 1 college players and athletes with at least 1-year training history, and interventions ranging from 5 to 10 weeks. A meta-analysis was performed to check the difference between the two training methods, and analyzed the differences in the existing auto-regulation programs' effectiveness. The overall results showed that the auto-regulation method was more effective than the fixed-loading method in maximum strength training (effect size = 0.64; P &lt; 0.001; I2 = 0%). In specific, the pooled results in subgroup analysis indicated that the auto-regulation method may effectively improve the strength performance in squat (effect size = 4.64; P &lt; 0.05; I2 = 54%) and bench press (effect size = 3.21; P &lt; 0.05; I2 = 62%). Greater benefits of the auto-regulation method on strength improvement could be achieved in an 8-week or even shorter training (effect size = 0.87; P &lt; 0.001; I2 = 0%) compared with those of 8–10 weeks (effect size = 0.32; P &lt; 0.001; I2 = 0%). The APRE is the most effective training program among the three auto-regulation programs (effect size = 0.78; P &lt; 0.001; I2 = 0%). In conclusion, the auto-regulation method could be more effective than the fixed-loading method in maximum strength training. The APRE is a convenient and effective training program that may be considered a practical training program to replace traditional training in athletes.
