Parent-implemented Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Interventions (NDBIs), rooted from applied behavioral and developmental sciences, focus on empowering families by training and coaching natural change agents to embed evidence-based strategies during regular events or contexts (e.g., play time). No research, however, has relied on…

We explored the usage of smartphones in university classrooms across three different countries from the instructor's perspective. Using a qualitative, cross-cultural approach, we interviewed 30 instructors via semi-structured interviews to understand their viewpoints and experience with student smartphone usage in class. Instructors reported…

Evidence on the effectiveness of telemedicine in coaching parents of autistic children using naturalistic developmental early interventions is limited. This review aimed to examine the literature on the effectiveness of telemedicine on children's social communication following parent-mediated naturalistic developmental early interventions. A total…

This study aims to examine in detail the impact of smartphone use on university students' academic processes. As the role of technology in education continues to grow, smartphones have become an integral part of students' daily lives. Therefore, understanding the effects of these devices on academic performance, time management, and study habits…

The use of technology in higher education has been shown to have multiple learning benefits, providing great help to all students. However, more evidence is needed on the benefits of technology for inclusive higher education through the analysis of classroom practices. This study aimed to analyse the advantages and limitations identified by…

From ancient times, the different features of planets and moons have created a huge interest. Aristarchus was one of the first to study the relative relations among Earth, Moon, and Sun. This interest has remained until today, and therefore it is always relevant to make this knowledge more appealing to the younger generations. Nowadays, smartphone…

Law Enforcement Agencies gather intelligence in order to prevent criminal activity and "pursue" criminals. In the context of human intelligence collection, intelligence elicitation relies heavily upon the deployment of "appropriate" evidence-based interviewing techniques (a topic rarely covered in the extant research…

A phone emitting sound of a fixed frequency is sliding on an inclined plane and approaching a second phone kept at the bottom of the plane. The detected frequency versus time data by the second phone are used to calculate the acceleration of the sliding phone. The primary objective of this paper is to calculate the sliding friction between the…

Telehealth has been utilized to provide behavioral services to families with children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other disabilities. This systematic review provides an update on current research pertaining to the use of telehealth to provide behavior analytic-based services and train caregivers in implementing behavioral procedures.…

Developing communication skills is critical for all young children, especially for those receiving early intervention (EI) services. Thus, many researchers have investigated evidence-based practices for teaching social communication skills. In an attempt to minimize the gap between research and practice, research investigating training caregivers…

As digital multimedia devices increasingly pervade people's lives, including the lives of older adults, the need to provide relevant training for these age groups grows. Older adults, not due to their frailty or age, often find it difficult to use digital devices like smartphones, and they often lack the basic digital literacy required to use…

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of organizational knowledge on organizational performance. Design/methodology/approach: A survey of 66 managerial cadre employees of firms in Nigeria's telecommunications industry made up the population for this study. The research study is descriptive in nature and it adopted a…

We demonstrated the fabrication of a low-cost and high-resolution papercraft smartphone spectrometer and characterized its performance by recording spectra from gas discharge lamps. The optical design and a lab-made narrow slit used in the fabrication led to fine images of the slit on the image sensor, resulting in high spectral resolution. The…

In this article, Michael Moore provides a bibliography of early 1980s online learning literature which was compiled when he was Director of the American Center for Study of Distance Education. The bibliography was compiled around 1990 and notes the names of some of the first thinkers and early initiatives in the field of online learning.

This study provides information about the formation of colours with an experimental activity based on the reflection of coloured lights from pigments. The activity shows the formation of colour in a simple and entertaining way. The lights are reflected by being changed by different coloured pigments. This activity provides an opportunity to…
