Stress and Resilience in the Workplace
(Springer Nature, 2023-08-24)Resilience to the effects of stress is a variable that is often overlooked in studies of the effects of stress on behaviour and individuals. Indeed, our models of health provision (both physical and mental health) focus ... -
Using a framework for collaborative teacher educator learning to develop the initial teacher education curriculum
(British Educational Research Association, 2024-08-28)School-based and university-based teacher educators within partnerships have the potential to transform the practice of initial teacher education (ITE) through learning together. Using the working model of Perry et al. ... -
Hagedorn singularity in exact U q su 2 S -matrix theories with arbitrary spins
(2024-06-24)Generalizing the quantum sine-Gordon and sausage models, we construct exact S-matrices for higher spin representations with quantum Uqsu2 symmetry, which satisfy unitarity, crossing-symmetry and the Yang-Baxter equations ... -
Compendious review on 3D-printed gels for effluent treatment
(2024-08-08)Direct ink writing (DIW) has emerged as an innovative and efficient method for gel synthesis, presenting numerous advantages over conventional techniques. Leveraging a diverse array of raw materials, DIW offers precise ... -
Probing the Heights and Depths of Y Dwarf Atmospheres : A Retrieval Analysis of the JWST Spectral Energy Distribution of WISE J035934.06$-$540154.6
(2024-08-12)We present an atmospheric retrieval analysis of the Y0 brown dwarf WISE J035934.06−540154.6 using the low-resolution 0.96-12 μm James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) spectrum presented in Beiler et al. We obtain volume number ... -
Benefits of home-based foot neuromuscular electrical stimulation on self-reported function, leg pain and other leg symptoms among community-dwelling older adults: a sham-controlled randomised clinical trial
(2024-12-30)Introduction: Lower leg pain and symptoms, and poor leg circulation are common in older adults. These can significantly affect their function and quality of life. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) applied via the ... -
Responsiveness and minimal important change of the Family Reported Outcome Measure (FROM-16)
(2024-03-26)Background: The FROM-16 is a generic family quality of life (QoL) instrument that measures the QoL impact of patients’ disease on their family members/partners. The study aimed to assess the responsiveness of FROM-16 to ... -
Out-of-time-order asymptotic observables are quasi-isomorphic to time-ordered amplitudes
(2024-08-08)Asymptotic observables in quantum field theory beyond the familiar S-matrix have recently attracted much interest, for instance in the context of gravity waveforms. Such observables can be understood in terms of ... -
Identifying the essential elements to inform the development of a research agenda for Paramedicine in Ireland: a Delphi Study
(2024-08-09)Background: Paramedicine is a dynamic profession which has evolved from a “treat and transport” service into a complex network of health professionals working in a diverse range of clinical roles. Research is challenging ... -

Adopting social media affordances to facilitate value co-creation in SMEs
(Academy of Marketing, 2024-07-04)Despite the growing importance of social media-enabled value co-creation, the understanding of how firms, specifically SMEs, can maximise the use of social media affordances for value co-creation remains limited. This ... -
Global Consensus Statement; How Can Judo Contribute to Reducing the Problem of Injurious Falls in Older Adults?
(2024-06-25)The Global Consensus Statement on judo-based interventions for older adults addresses the potential of judo techniques, particularly ukemi (safe falling techniques), in minimising the risk and impact of falls among the ... -
Overcoming treatment-resistant depression with machine-learning based tools: a study protocol combining EEG and clinical data to personalize glutamatergic and brain stimulation interventions (SelecTool Project)
(2024-07-17)Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD) poses a substantial health and economic challenge, persisting as a major concern despite decades of extensive research into novel treatment modalities. The considerable heterogeneity ... -
Fostering cultural resilience: assessing the success of a locally engaged and adapted mental health intervention in Gaza
(2024-07-16)In ongoing-conflict-affected regions like Gaza, the prevalence of complex and intersecting post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSDs) necessitates innovative interventions. Our study explores a mental health care approach ... -
Digital endpoints in clinical trials: emerging themes from a multi-stakeholder Knowledge Exchange event
(2024-08-03)Background: Digital technologies, such as wearable devices and smartphone applications (apps), can enable the decentralisation of clinical trials by measuring endpoints in people’s chosen locations rather than in traditional ... -
Multimodal Affective Communication Analysis: Fusing Speech Emotion and Text Sentiment Using Machine Learning
(2024-08-30)Affective communication, encompassing verbal and non-verbal cues, is crucial for understanding human interactions. This study introduces a novel framework for enhancing emotional understanding by fusing speech emotion ... -
