Sean Till; David A. Kaminsky – Advances in Physiology Education, 2024
Here we demonstrate how data from the clinical pulmonary function lab can help students learn about the principle of airway-parenchymal interdependence. We examined the relationship between airway conductance (Gaw) and lung volume (thoracic gas volume, TGV) in 48 patients: 17 healthy; 20 with emphysema, expected to have reduced airway-parenchymal…

Sai Ho Yip; Adrian K. T. Ng; Henry Y. K. Lau; Jeffrey A. Saunders – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2024
Recent findings suggest that adding a visual depiction of a nose to virtual reality displays (virtual nose) can reduce motion sickness. If so, this would be a simple intervention that could improve the experience of a variety of VR applications. However, only one peer-reviewed study has reported a benefit from a virtual nose, and the effect was…

Kara N. Moore; Blake L. Nesmith; Dara U. Zwemer; Chenxin Yu – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2024
People perform poorly at sighting missing and wanted persons in simulated searches due to attention and face recognition failures. We manipulated participants' expectations of encountering a target person and the within-person variability of the targets' photographs studied in a laboratory-based and a field-based prospective person memory task. We…

Christine Mazeppa – Dance Education in Practice, 2024
This article serves as an in-practice guide to help teachers facilitate the creation of a dance piece using the five-paragraph essay format to explore themes through motif and manipulation. It is an outline of the process that begins with the selection of a theme and the development of a motif to represent that theme. It compares the development…

Sae-Ock Oh; Boon Huat Bay; Hee-Jin Kim; Hye Yeon Lee; Sik Yoon – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
Although a diversity of religions exists in South Korea, with Buddhism and Christianity (Protestantism and Catholicism) being the two main faiths, Korean beliefs are deeply rooted in Confucianism. Despite the notion that the Confucian norm of filial piety discourages body donation to medical science, there has been a mindset shift in favor of body…

Shao, Muhan; Xing, Fangxu; Carass, Aaron; Liang, Xiao; Zhuo, Jiachen; Stone, Maureen; Woo, Jonghye; Prince, Jerry L. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Purpose: Muscle groups within the tongue in healthy and diseased populations show different behaviors during speech. Visualizing and quantifying strain patterns of these muscle groups during tongue motion can provide insights into tongue motor control and adaptive behaviors of a patient. Method: We present a pipeline to estimate the strain along…

Hsiao, Janet Hui-wen; Liao, Weiyan; Tso, Ricky Van Yip – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2022
We examined how mask use affects performance and eye movements in face recognition and whether strategy change reflected in eye movements is associated with performance change. Eighty-eight participants performed face recognition with masked faces either during learning only, during recognition only, or during both learning and recognition. As…

Ching-Ling Lin; Yao-Tsung Chang; Li-Chi Huang; Ruey-Yu Chen; Shwu-Huey Yang – Health Education & Behavior, 2025
This study aimed to look into the effectiveness of a 6-month health coaching intervention on kidney function in treating patients with type 2 diabetes and early-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD). It was conducted via a two-armed, randomized-controlled trial involving 92 diabetic patients who were regularly followed under the shared care system at…

Objective: The short-term safety of methylphenidate (MPH) has been widely demonstrated; however the long-term safety is less clear. The aim of this study was to investigate the safety of MPH in relation to pubertal maturation and to explore the monitoring of bone age. Method: Participants from ADDUCE, a two-year observational longitudinal study…

Renata Souza e Silva; Gustavo Cunha Lima Freire; Gilberto Santos Cerqueira – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
Teaching human histology is part of understanding the tissues of the human body and, therefore, it is part of the training curriculum of all health courses. The increase in technologies and active teaching methodologies has a positive impact on student learning, as it reduces the challenges present in the subject. Therefore, this work aimed to…

Liteboho Tlotliso Mosheshe; Janine C. Correia; Nadine Rampf – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
This study explored the effects of a novel intervention, binaural beats (BB), on anxiety levels of anatomy students during cadaveric dissections and its impact on the learning environment. The study was quasi-experimental, employing a purposive sampling strategy. State (SA) and trait (TA) anxiety levels were measured using the State-Trait Anxiety…

Carragher, Daniel J.; Towler, Alice; Mileva, Viktoria R.; White, David; Hancock, Peter J. B. – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2022
To slow the spread of COVID-19, many people now wear face masks in public. Face masks impair our ability to identify faces, which can cause problems for professional staff who identify offenders or members of the public. Here, we investigate whether performance on a masked face matching task can be improved by training participants to compare…

Matthew Sargent; Alex LePage; Yoed N. Kenett; Heath E. Matheson – Creativity Research Journal, 2023
Accounts of embodied cognition suggest that environmental scene and motor information can be used in a type of neural simulation when generating creative uses for manipulable objects. A scarce amount of studies suggests that the state of the body and environment play a role in people's ability to devise creative uses for objects. In this…

Kuryeong Kim; Qingyun Yu; Susanne Maria Reiterer – Discover Education, 2025
Recent studies have suggested that language aptitude is a domain-general and flexible trait to acquire foreign languages, regarding various cognitive abilities such as memory systems as its crucial components. Despite a growing interest in working memory, however, much remains unknown about the impact of associative memory on language aptitude.…

Sally A. Radell; Mara P. Mandradjieff; Smrithi R. Ramachandran; Daniel D. Adame; Steven P. Cole – Journal of Dance Education, 2023
This study investigates the impact of partial versus full mirror use on body image in a beginner-level ballet class. At the end of a seven-week period, researchers distributed an online survey inclusive of qualitative questions to two groups of female collegiate students enrolled in separate beginner-level ballet courses taught by the same…
