Background: To evaluate the effect of the anxiety of a parent accompanying a child on the child's anxiety during treatment. Methods: Parents of 160 patients (4-8 years old) were divided into two groups anxious and non-anxious. Each groups had separated two randomized subgroups that with/without parents accompanied their children. At the first visit, participating children were examined while the behavior of the child during the examination was evaluated by a single pediatric dentist according to their heart rates measured by a portable pulse oximeter and the data were recorded (objective data).Forty-two children with a score of 1 and 4 on the Frankel Scale were excluded. After the parents were divided into two groups, anxious and non-anxious, the groups were equally divided randomly and the parents accompanied their children during the treatment. Patients were recalled after one week for the treatment visit. Both groups were evaluated using the basic behavior technique. Compomer fillings were performed on children with infiltration anesthesia. The children's heart rates were measured by a portable pulse oximeter during treatment. Finally, the children were asked to express how they felt about the treatment by pointing out one of the faces on the Wong-Baker Faces Scale (subjective data). The children also rated the experience on the Frankel scale administered by the same operator.
This mixed-methods, two-arm, randomized controlled trial will evaluate the impact of Motivational Interviewing (MI) as a follow-up care to patients who received fall prevention recommendations at Oregon Health & Science University Internal Medicine and Geriatrics Clinic provided over 12 months.
Community participants will visit the neuroimaging facilities at CU Boulder for a single experimental session. In all studies, participants will complete pre-task questionnaires (trait measures), and a brief mood measure, followed by a task training in which a research assistant describes and gives examples of cognitive reappraisal in response to negative images. Then, participants complete an event-related, picture-based cognitive reappraisal task for 30-45 minutes, during which whole-brain BOLD signal will be collected. Following the task, participants will once again respond to a mood measure, and answer a series of questions regarding the task they have completed, including difficulty of regulation, or any images that were personally relevant. The researchers predict that the positive emotion induction will result in powerful effects on self-reported emotion which may or may not interact with the cognitive reappraisal condition. Participants will be trained to use reappraisal to increase positive emotion, and they will be asked to respond with the reappraisal tactic category that best fits the reappraisal they used for each image. The researchers predict greater use of future-focused tactics will be associated with greater reappraisal success, which in turn will result in greater recruitment of vmPFC and connectivity between vmPFC and other prefrontal regions.
Vaparshun intervention aimed to inspire the target audience to use a toilet. It aimed to revalue their toilets by recognizing that they provide benefits associated with the motives of hoard, create, convenience (comfort) and affiliation, and provide a reward pathway for transitioning to a new toilet use routine.
The purpose of this study is to learn how to better support fathers and their families after incarceration. It will test an intervention that promotes healthy development for children of previously incarcerated fathers and the caregivers of their children for empirical promise through a pilot feasibility trial. The aims of the pilot are to demonstrate: a) client acceptance of the treatment (e.g., retention), b) ability to recruit sufficient numbers of participants, and c) feasibility of delivery with the clients and therapists in the designated treatment settings. About 15 families (15 fathers, 15 caregivers, and 15-20 children, totaling 45-50 participants) will be in the study.
The response to COVID-19 means social isolation/distancing for the majority of the UK. This has the potential to negatively affect all domains of quality of life (QoL). QoL can be improved by giving feedback on gaps between someone's perceived QoL in a domain and how important it is to them (plus prompting reflective questions). However, interventions that are designed to improve QoL may increase the effectiveness of this as optimised behaviour change techniques can be used. This study aims to develop and test a quality of life intervention during social isolation/distancing.
This study builds on earlier work assessing the impact of kindness media on viewers' emotional responses. Using images of kindness and connection, as well as other content, we will test its impact on emotions and behavior in the field. The setting is in healthcare, specifically a pediatric dental clinic. Using simple scales, participants anonymously rate themselves on a variety of emotions, watch a television for 8 minutes, and then complete the self-assessment. An honorarium is provided for participation.
For this study, community participants will visit the PI's psychophysiology lab for a single experimental session. In this study, participants will complete pre-task questionnaires (trait measures), and a brief mood measure, followed by a task training in which a research assistant describes and gives examples of cognitive reappraisal in response to negative images. Participants are then randomly assigned to positive or neutral emotion induction conditions, to be delivered by virtual reality. Then, participants complete an event-related, picture-based cognitive reappraisal task for 30-45 minutes, during which skin conductance level will be collected. Following the task, participants will once again respond to a mood measure, and answer a series of questions regarding the task they have completed, including difficulty of regulation, or any images that were personally relevant. The investigators predict that the positive emotion induction will result in powerful effects on self-reported emotion and skin conductance, which may or may not interact with the cognitive reappraisal condition.
Oral hygiene is one of the most accessible and well-known strategies for the prevention of dental caries. The benefits of this practice after tooth eruption are well established in the literature. Oral hygiene in newborns prior to tooth eruption is controversial, since there is a disagreement between the Dental and Pediatric Associations as to the optimal time to initiate oral hygiene in children and scientific studies in this regard have not yet been performed. Some of these associations recommend starting this practice from the eruption of the child's first tooth. Others recommend beginning the cleansing of the child's oral cavity from birth by cleaning the baby's gingival rollers and tongue. The aim of the present investigation will be to evaluate, through a randomized clinical trial, the influence of oral hygiene in newborns on Candida spp colonization. and on the child's behavior during oral hygiene after tooth eruption. Will be included in the study, pairs of mothers and babies born in the maternity of the Hospital Nossa Senhora da Saúde, in Diamantina, Minas Gerais, Brazil. This will be a rehearsal Randomized clinical trial in which newborns will be allocated into 2 groups, namely: - Newborns whose parents will receive guidelines for oral hygiene before tooth eruption (Group 1); - Newborns whose parents will receive instructions not to perform oral hygiene before tooth eruption (Group 2). The initial data collection will be performed one month after the child's birth and will include oral clinical examinations, saliva collection and questionnaires on the socio-environmental, economic and behavioral aspects of the child and his family. Initial oral clinical examinations will be performed to assess the presence of Candidiasis, and saliva collection will be performed to identify and quantification of Candida spp. These evaluations will be performed again every three months. From the eruption of the first deciduous tooth, the follow-up included an assessment of the baby's behavior during oral hygiene performed by the responsible. This evaluation will be made by the examiner using the Frankl scale and HBCD scale criteria. Statistical analysis will be performed using the Statistical Package for Social Science, version 23.0 and will include descriptive, bivariate and multivariate analyzes.
