In this laboratory experiment, students modify a series of surfaces and explore the effects of varying surface chemistry and texture on wettability by different probe liquids. Students begin by building a simple contact angle goniometer utilizing their mobile phone cameras. Next, they contrast the wettability of planar glass substrates…

Caregivers of children with a neurodevelopmental disorder report increased mental health difficulties but also barriers to accessing professional support. Psychological interventions via telehealth offer an accessible method of service delivery for these families. This review is the first to quantitatively evaluate available telehealth trials…

Objective: Prior work has suggested the impact of problematic phone use on the mental health of graduate students. This research explores the mediating effect of sleep quality on this link. Participants: A total of 186 graduate students from the United States were collected using an online data acquisition platform. Graduate study areas…

As virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) continue to become popular, there remains a noticeable gap in understanding their potential for enriching science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning among K-12 students. To address this knowledge gap, this study systematically reviewed 117 articles published from 2010 to…

The link between technology use and cybervictimization in elementary education is less explored than in secondary education. Increased technology use since COVID-19 and high rates of cybervictimization among elementary students highlight the need to identify early risk factors. This study surveyed 1,169 families of fifth and sixth graders using a…

Introduction: COVID-19 impacted care delivery in rehabilitation services including speech-language pathology. The purpose of this study was to examine speech-language pathologists'(SLPs) perspectives on the effectiveness of virtual care delivered during the pandemic in Canada, their experiences with therapy delivered virtually and their views on…

The digital transformation in education and the widespread use of mobile devices have blurred the boundaries between students' learning and entertainment, increasing the prevalence of cyberloafing among college students. To address the inconsistent effects of cyberloafing on academic achievement, this study proposed a curvilinear relationship…

Background/purpose: Smartphone addiction is widespread among adolescents. Recent literature reports a strong link between excessive use of smart devices and declines in sleep quality. This study investigated smartphone addiction and sleep quality among adolescents at a university and examined differences by demographic variables (gender and…

Session notes are a required component of documenting behavior analytic sessions. The direct training of writing objective session notes is important to the success of direct line staff completing adequate documentation and meeting requirements set forth by agencies, certification boards, and insurance funders. However, in-person training is not…

Recent events have emphasized the need for behavior-analytic service delivery models that can remain clinically consistent and produce high-quality outcomes while adapting to environmental change. This paper reports outcomes of an organization that adapted to changes in its service delivery model during a worldwide pandemic. The organization…

A simple experimental setup using a smartphone and a pair of speakers is presented to perform an accurate experiment on interference of two point sources. The proposed experiment allows simple but interesting measurements to be done to introduce students to interference and diffraction phenomena. As such, the experiment effectively introduces the…

Students face multiple stressors while earning their doctorates. Since peer support is a common recommendation for easing this stress, we realized graduate students, faculty, and academic program administrators might have interest in how our cohort used group messaging to facilitate peer support early in our studies. We conducted a thematic…

This study investigated whether a systematic instruction package was effective in child acquisition of question answering using an iPad-based speech generating device (SGD). The study was conducted with two children with autism using a multiple probe across behaviors design. Results demonstrated that the systematic instruction package consisting…

Despite an improving interest in mobile-assisted language learning in recent years, little is known about second language (L2) learners' use of and attitudes to smartphone apps in learning English. This study explores L2 learners' purposes for and attitudes toward using Smartphone English Language Learning Apps (SELLA) in the Vietnamese context. A…

Aimed to adapt the experimental teaching to keeping up with the actual application of the experimental scene, an experimental teaching based on virtual-real combination for mobile communication was proposed in this article, which realized the collaborative mode of combining online virtual operations and real operations. The virtual experiments…
