Picture Prompts

To explore the validity of picture-prompt writing assessment, the study investigated the influence of caption type (i.e. narrative, abstract, and zero) in the picture prompt on EFL writing quality of Chinese college students in terms of holistic scores and functional dimensions (i.e. Dimensions of Involvement, Narration, Elaborated reference, Persuasion, Abstractness, and On-line informational elaboration). ANOVA, MANOVA, and linear regression analysis were conducted and results showed that (a) participants performed significantly better with the abstract caption; (b) Dimensions of Involvement and Abstractness significantly distinguished essays with the abstract caption from those with other types; (c) Dimension of Persuasion significantly predicted ratings of essays with the narrative caption, while Dimension of Narration significantly predicted ratings of essays with the abstract caption. Finally, implications for picture-prompt writing assessment and instruction were discussed.

Introduction: Much of the literature investigating the challenges associated with completing high quality work-based assessments (WBAs) have raised specific concerns over the appropriate documentation of assessments of underperforming trainees or trainees in difficulty. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between resident performance and the quality of assessments documented by supervisors on Daily Encounter Cards (DECs). The effect of trainee proximity (i.e. on-service versus off-service status) on this relationship was also examined. Methods: A series of DECs from the Department of Emergency Medicine at the University of Ottawa was scored by two raters using the Completed Clinical Evaluation Report Rating (CCERR). The CCERR is a 9-item instrument that has previously demonstrated reliable ratings and the ability to discriminate the quality of completed DECs. A proxy measure of resident performance was calculated by averaging the scores across performance items on the DEC to produce a “mean DEC rating”. Linear regression analysis was conducted with “mean DEC rating” as the independent measure and CCERR score as the dependent measure. Separate linear regression analyses were repeated for DECs completed for on-service versus off-service residents. Results: Linear regression analysis demonstrated a small but significant inverse relationship between mean DEC rating and CCERR score (p<0.001, r=-0.184), suggesting that when residents performed poorly, their supervisors tended to document higher quality assessments, and conversely, when residents performed well, their supervisors provided lower quality assessments. Further analysis demonstrated that this relationship was present for the on-service group (p<0.001, r=-0.24). However, no relationship was observed in the off-service group (p=0.62, r=-0.05). Conclusion: Resident performance and trainee proximity are important factors impacting the quality of documented clinical performance assessments. Greater attention needs to be given to determining ways of improving the quality of assessments reported for residents who are appropriately progressing in their clinical competence as well as for off-service trainees.

Background: Problematic Internet use (PIU) is the inability of individuals to control their Internet use, resulting in marked distress and/or functional impairment in daily life. Aim/Objective: We assessed the frequency of PIU and predictors of PIU, including social anxiety disorder (SAD), quality of sleep, quality of life and Internet-related demographic variables among school going adolescents. Methods: This was an observational, single-centered, cross-sectional, questionnaire-based study of 1,312 school going adolescents studying in Grades 10, 11 and 12 in Bhavnagar, India. Every participant was assessed by a pro forma containing demographic details, questionnaires of Internet Addiction Test (IAT), Social Phobia Inventory (SPIN), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS) for PIU severity, SAD severity, Quality of Sleep assessment and Quality of Life assessment, respectively. The statistical analysis was done with SPSS Version 23 (IBM Corporation) using chi-square test, Student’s t test and Pearson’s correlation. Multiple linear regression analysis was applied to find the predictors of PIU. Results: We found frequency of PIUs as 16.7% and Internet addiction as 3.0% among school going adolescents. Participants with PIU are more likely to experience SAD ( p < .0001), poor quality of sleep ( p < .0001) and poor quality of life ( p < .0001). There is positive correlation between severity of PIU and SAD ( r = .411, p < .0001). Linear regression analysis shows PIU can be predicted by SAD, sleep quality, quality of life, English medium, male gender, total duration of Internet use, monthly cost of Internet use, education, social networking, gaming, online shopping and entertainment as purpose of Internet use. Conclusion: Participants with PIU are more likely to experience SAD, poor quality of sleep and poor quality of life.

Abstract Background End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is a leading cause of death and morbidity worldwide. Malnutrition is a common problem among hemodialysis (HD) patients that negatively impacts their prognosis and is linked to an increase in morbidity and mortality in these patients, as well as a decrease in their quality of life (QOL). In this study, we aimed to evaluate the QOL and to investigate factors that can influence it, including nutritional status, as well as socio-demographic factors, among Palestinian diabetic patients on HD therapy. Methods This was a cross-sectional study that occurred at a large hemodialysis center in Palestine. Malnutrition was assessed by the malnutrition-inflammation scale (MIS), and the quality of life was evaluated by using the EuroQoL five-dimensional instrument (EQ-5D). Multivariable linear regression analysis was carried out to look at the effect of multiple variables on QOL. Results A total of 118 diabetic patients on HD were included. Of these, 66.9% were male, and 60.2% were aged 60 years or higher. Having multiple comorbid diseases (p=0.004) and having been on HD for >4 years (p=0.003) were significantly associated with a higher MIS score, whereas living alone (p=0.037) and having been on HD for >4 years (p=0.002) was significantly associated with lower EQ-5D score. We also observed a significant association between the MIS score and the EQ-5D score(r=−0.616, p<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated that diabetic hemodialysis patients who lived within a family household were positively correlated with the QOL score (standardized coefficient, 0.178; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.042 to 0.372; p = 0.015), and MIS score was significantly and negatively correlated with QOL scores (standardized coefficient, −0.587; 95% CI, −0.047 to −0.028; p < 0.001). Conclusions We found that malnutrition was associated with a lower QOL score among diabetic patients on HD. We recommend general practitioners, dietitians, nephrologists, and nurses to make plans that pay more attention to this group of patients who show evidence of malnutrition. Patients on dialysis for ≥ 4 years, patients who live alone, and those suffering from multiple co-morbid diseases should receive special care due to their higher risk of being impacted by this problem.

In Operational  Area  8 Surabaya there are several railway lines, one of which is the Wonokromo - Mojokerto line. This lane has a fairly heavy train traffic frequency including the connecting lane south. This will affect the quality of roads on the Wonokromo - Mojokerto line. To assess damage to a railroad seen from several aspects in the structure of the railroad. These aspects are the structure of the railroad, the structure of the railroad and the geometrical structure of the railroad. In Indonesian railways, the railroad uses railroad geometry consisting of several parameters (track gauge, cant, longitudinal level, and lateral level.) as a basis for assessing railroad quality. In this study will analyze the structure of the railroad under the thickness of the ballast to the Track Quality Index (TQI). In this study using a simple linear regression analysis to determine the variation of the thickness of the ballast to TQI. From the results of the analysis conducted, obtained thickness changes that occur in ballast that affect the value of the Track Quality Index (TQI). Where the greater ballast, the greater the value of TQI.
