Black American women's attitudes toward seeking mental health services and use of mobile technology to support the management of anxiety
<p><strong>Objective</strong>: This study aimed to understand Black American women's attitudes toward seeking mental health services and using mobile technology to receive support for managing anxiety.</p> <p><strong>Methods</strong>: A self-administered web-based questionnaire was launched in October 2019 and closed in January 2020. Women who identify as Black/African American were eligible to participate. The survey consisted of approximately 70 questions and covered topics such as attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help, acceptability of using a mobile phone to receive mental health care, and screening for anxiety.</p> <p><strong>Results</strong>: The findings of the study (N=395) showed that younger Black women were more likely to have greater severity of anxiety than their older counterparts. Respondents were most comfortable with the use of a voice call or video call to communicate with a professional to receive support to manage anxiety in comparison to text messaging or mobile app. Younger age, higher income, and greater scores for psychological openness and help-seeking propensity increased the odds of indicating agreement with using mobile technology to communicate with a professional. Black women in the South region of the U.S. had twice the odds of agreeing to the use of mobile apps than women in the Midwest and Northeast regions.</p> <p><strong>Discussion</strong>: Black American women, in general, have favorable views toward the use of mobile technology to receive support to manage anxiety.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion</strong>: Preferences and cultural appropriateness of resources should be assessed on an individual basis to increase the likelihood of adoption of and engagement with digital mental health interventions for management of anxiety. </p>

Shanghai residents attitudes towards raccoon dogs
<p>Human-wildlife interactions become increasingly common in urban areas across all continents and ecosystem types. Depending on the context, human-wildlife interactions can be categorized as harmonious, neutral, or in conflict and raise cultural, economic, and ecological challenges in maintaining urban biodiversity. Understanding the mechanism behind the tolerance of residents to the presence of wildlife is vital to promoting a harmonious coexistence between humans and wildlife in urban environments. To advance our knowledge of this mechanism, we developed a questionnaire to survey residents in Shanghai, China about their knowledge of and attitude towards raccoon dogs (<em>Nyctereutes procyonoides</em>), a species whose population is increasing in urban areas. Using 281 questionnaires, we conducted structural equation modeling to examine how relational values, including familiarity with raccoon dogs, perceived benefits and risks, together with residents' trust in wildlife management authorities, interactively influence the tolerance for this species. We found that the residents' familiarity with raccoon dogs positively influenced their tolerance, both directly and indirectly through increased perceived benefits and reduced perceived risks. Furthermore, trust in wildlife management authorities contributed to higher tolerance through perceived benefits. Our results suggested that education about the relational values of raccoon dogs to the public can reduce the traditional negative connotation for this species and promote the coexistence of people and raccoon dogs in the Shanghai urban environment. Based on our understanding of how raccoon dogs were culturally constructed and the willingness of residents to share landscapes with the species, we advocate that relational values play an important role in future urban biodiversity conservation planning. We also advocate for education programs that familiarize the public with raccoon dogs as well as other species, which can turn urban human-wildlife conflicts into harmonious relationships in Shanghai and other urban areas.</p>

<p>An anonymous online questionnaire that contained 16 open-ended and closed-ended questions was used to assess the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on 1) eating behavior and dietary habits changes concerning various plant-based foods; 2) frequency of consumption of herbal teas and dietary supplements; 3) quantity of traditionally pickled plant-based food prepared for the winter period, and 4) the general attitude toward diet, plant-based food, natural products, and dietary supplements.</p> <p> </p>
Attitudes of Staff Involved in Dental Radiological Procedures in Georgia Towards Radiation Protection and Safety: A Questionnaire-Based Study
<p>Objectives: To investigate dentist’s perceptions and attitudes regarding radiation safety in dental practices in Georgia.</p> <p>Methods: More than 100 dentists involved in dental X-ray diagnostic procedures across the country participated in this study. The questionnaire was submitted via Google form, a total of 17 key questions with relevant sub-questions. Further data were evaluated according to the frequency distribution. An anonymous survey was conducted regarding the following areas: years of practice, types and characteristics of the radiography equipment, knowledge of BSS and national regulations, prescription of dental radiographs, use of radiation protection equipment, participation in the radiation safety training program and etc.</p> <p>Results: The obtained data are presented in the form of tables and diagrams. Analysis of the answers showed a fairly high level of knowledge and responsibility for radiation safety among all survey participants. A certain difference in the answers depends both on work experience, education and on a number of other factors, for the study of which additional research is needed.</p> <p>Conclusions: This article is the first study in Georgia conducted jointly by a scientific organization, a national regulatory authority, as well as educational and professional structures. The analysis of the results of the presented questionnaire, on the one hand, allows the assessment of mandatory knowledge of radiation protection and safety issues of the target personnel. On the other hand, such feedback based on statistical data is a prerequisite for the revision of possible further regulatory requirements. Staff awareness issues involve the involvement of the relevant professional associations, which will allow it to strengthen the requirements for its members in the long run, as well as better analyze existing practices.</p>

<p>We present a quantitative repeated measures dataset from intensive longitudinal research (diary survey) conducted with participants drawn from a nationally representative sample of the German population. This diary survey addresses a wide range of variables relevant to the COVID-19 pandemic, including information seeking, attitudes towards science, public health, and related behaviors. Respondents were asked about their thoughts, challenges, concerns, and experiences related to the pandemic. Survey responses were requested every two weeks from November 2020 and September 2021 for a total of 18 stages of data collection. The diary survey responses were all matched to the same individual. Using the unique identifier for each individual, the diary survey dataset can be analyzed in concert with a larger representative survey sample that was conducted three times within the same research project over this time period. The diary dataset we present here includes socio-demographic information and other potentially relevant variables, ready for secondary analysis.<br> <br> Initial sample frame: <em>N </em>= 1,480</p> <p>Initial diary survey sub-sample: <em>N </em>= 133</p>
Attitudes Toward and Impacts of Free-roaming Dogs in Madagascar
<p>Free-roaming domesticated dogs interact with humans and wildlife in ways that can exacerbate or mitigate existing conflict. Dogs are known to predate wildlife as well as domestic livestock which contributes to increasing human-wildlife conflict. However, dogs can also mitigate conflict by protecting livestock from native predators or killing invasive pest species. Because attitudes toward dogs vary greatly, conflict often arises between humans over how to manage free-roaming dogs.</p> <p>We conducted surveys to assess attitudes toward domesticated dogs, behavior of dogs, and impacts on domestic and wild species. Dog owners who accessed Mad Dog Initiative's mobile vaccination clinics between 2014 and 2019 were asked to participate in the survey. Mobile clinic sites were located in communities surrounding Andasibe-Mantadia and Ranomafana National Parks in eastern Madagascar.</p> <p>We found that people were generally favorable toward spay/neuter options. Over 40% of participants reported that their dogs had killed wildlife and livestock predation by dogs was also common. There was high spatial variation in human attitudes, dog behavior, and predation rates.</p>
Effects of COVID-19 lockdown restrictions on parents' attitudes towards green space and time spent outside by children in Cambridgeshire and North London, United Kingdom
<p>1. In the United Kingdom, children are spending less time outdoors and are more disconnected from nature than previous generations. However, interaction with nature at a young age can benefit wellbeing and long-term support for conservation. Green space accessibility in the UK varies between rural and urban areas and is lower for children than for adults. It is possible that COVID-19 lockdown restrictions may have influenced these differences.</p> <p>2. In this study, we assessed parents' attitudes towards green space, as well as whether the COVID-19 lockdown restrictions had affected their attitudes or the amount of time spent outside by their children, via an online survey for parents of primary school-aged children in Cambridgeshire and North London, UK (n = 171). We assessed whether responses were affected by local environment (rural, suburban or urban), school type (state-funded or fee-paying) or garden access (with or without private garden access).</p> <p>3. Parents' attitudes towards green space were significantly different between local environments: 76.9% of rural parents reported being happy with the amount of green space to which their children had access, in contrast with only 40.5% of urban parents.</p> <p>4. COVID-19 lockdown restrictions also affected parents' attitudes to the importance of green space, and this differed between local environments: 75.7% of urban parents said their views had changed during lockdown, in contrast with 35.9% of rural parents. The change in amount of time spent outside by children during lockdown was also significantly different between local environments: most urban children spent more time inside during lockdown, whilst most rural children spent more time outside.</p> <p>5. Neither parents' attitudes towards green space nor the amount of time spent outside by their children varied with school type or garden access.</p> <p>6. Our results suggest that lockdown restrictions exacerbated pre-existing differences in access to nature between urban and rural children in our sampled population. We suggest that the current increased public and political awareness of the value of green space should be capitalised on to increase provision and access to green space and to reduce inequalities in accessibility and awareness of nature between children from different backgrounds.</p>

Tibetan pastoralists' attitudes toward grassland degradation and restoration
<p>Ecosystem restoration practices are gaining prominence in coping with the crisis of ecosystem degradation. To improve the long-term effectiveness of restoration activities, community engagement in restoration projects needs to be strengthened. In communities where traditional and local values drive adaptation to environmental changes, a community-engaged restoration approach requires the integration of restoration techniques and local value systems.</p> <p>In two pastoral communities on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, we used the Q method to explore pastoralists' attitudes towards grassland degradation and restoration and to understand different levels of community engagement in grassland restoration activities. Through this study, we aim to promote an understanding of the value-based approach of local communities to enable better community engagement for the long-term effectiveness of ecosystem restoration projects, and contribute to the achievement and synergy of global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).</p> <p>The study revealed eight types of pastoralists with different attitudes in two communities, with the type of <em>Active Agents</em> leveraging transformative restoration action through creating value-inclusive narratives of grassland restoration in the community with a higher level of engagement in restoration practices. Alongside this, we explored the pastoralists' perspectives of biodiversity in restoration and the importance of local elites in facilitating multiple-actor cooperation in restoration projects.</p> <p>We recommend that decision-makers recognize the significance of local worldviews and values in facilitating environmental adaptations, as well as the irreplaceable role played by local people in developing value-inclusive narratives that align with the local cultural context. Open dialogues and sufficient communication between multiple stakeholders are needed to build mutual trust and accumulate social capital for driving transformative actions in traditional communities. Such approaches are essential to foster community engagement and gain better momentum in ecosystem management initiatives.</p>
Supplementary materials to the article "Practices and attitudes toward replication in empirical translation and interpreting studies"
<p><strong>Abstract of the paper:</strong></p> <p>This article presents the results of three studies on practices in and attitudes toward replication in empirical translation and interpreting studies. The first study reports on a survey in which 52 researchers in translation and interpreting with experience in empirical research answered questions about their practices in and attitudes toward replication. The survey data were complemented by a bibliometric study of publications indexed in the Bibliography of Interpreting and Translation (BITRA) (Franco Aixelá 2001–2019) that explicitly stated in the title or abstract that they were derived from a replication. In a second bibliometric study, a conceptual replication of Yeung’s (2017) study on the acceptance of replications in neuroscience journals was conducted by analyzing 131 translation and interpreting journals. The article aims to provide evidence-based arguments for initiating a debate about the need for replication in empirical translation and interpreting studies and its implications for the development of the discipline.</p> <p><strong>Description of the supplementary materials:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Material 1: questionnaire in English</li> <li>Material 2: questionnaire in Spanish</li> <li>Material 3: results of both questionnaires</li> <li>Material 4: corpus of identified replications in Translation and Interpreting Studies (TIS)</li> <li>Material 5: acceptance of replications in TIS journals</li> </ul>

Assessing consumers' attitudes, expectations and intentions towards health and sustainability regarding seafood consumption in Italy
<p>The EU and its Member States have articulated a sustainability vision ‘to live well within the limits of our planet’ by 2050. In this context, consumers play a key role, being able to drive seafood production sustainability and responsibility according to their behaviour, also in relation to their attitudes towards health, nutrition and wellbeing. On the basis of these premises, this research explores Italian consumers' attitudes towards health and sustainability in relation to seafood, in order to segment different target of consumers. The framework used in this study is mainly focused on a quantitative exploratory data collection based on an online survey. Three groups of consumerswere identified based on general health interest, perceived benefits of eating seafoods and attitude towards seafoods: Health seekerswho eat seafood for duty; Health seekers and seafood lovers; Lowcommitment to health and indifferent to seafood. Differences among groups related to socio-demographic characteristics, sustainability attitudes, intentions and interest in information about seafood productswere also investigated. In particular, the first two groups are more familiar with sustainable seafood products and more interested in information on these products than the third, both in terms of product origin and seasonality. Consumers belonging to second group show a higher probability to buy seafood products considering this characteristic than the other two groups. Based on the results obtained, a strategic plan could be developed to achieve relevant goals in education, communication and sustainability labelling related with seafood products. Following a preliminary scouting carried out with all the seafood stakeholders, a specific territory to test this approach has been already identified in Torre del Cerrano (Italy). These results have a strong implication for policy makers and educational<br> institutions as they identify differences in attitudes and perceptions among consumers that are crucial in order to<br> design the right communication strategy strategies as well as messages content.</p>
