Exploring Technical Features to Enhance Control in Videoconferencing Psychotherapy: Quantitative Study on Clinicians’ Perspectives

Exploring Technical Features to Enhance Control in Videoconferencing Psychotherapy: Quantitative Study on Clinicians’ Perspectives

The analysis of the findings resulted in the individuation of therapists’ poor VCP control (the term “control” here is meant as a system where each participant is able to control or influence the behavior of the other [48]) as the core issues in their VCP sessions and in the formulation of a set of technical features that, according to the sample interviewed, might address therapists’ limited control over VCP.

Heuristics Identified in Health Data–Sharing Preferences of Patients With Cancer: Qualitative Focus Group Study

Heuristics Identified in Health Data–Sharing Preferences of Patients With Cancer: Qualitative Focus Group Study

These included motivators for and concerns about sharing data, incentives to allow access, types of institutions that can access the data, and consent and control features. The facilitators used these topics to develop and prioritize questions for the focus groups. Two researchers (AH and DAR) also developed questions to probe for heuristic processing, although the open-ended nature of the conversations was enough to naturally reveal heuristic processing.

Partisan Media, Trust, and Media Literacy: Regression Analysis of Predictors of COVID-19 Knowledge

Partisan Media, Trust, and Media Literacy: Regression Analysis of Predictors of COVID-19 Knowledge

Questions map to previously validated media literacy constructs described in research, including automatic versus higher-order thinking, the acceptance of information at face value versus engaging in critical thinking about the information; media locus of control, the extent to which people believe they have control over their media use; and self-perceived media literacy, the belief in one’s ability to determine credible information from misinformation [30,31].

Using Baidu Index Data to Improve Chickenpox Surveillance in Yunnan, China: Infodemiology Study

Using Baidu Index Data to Improve Chickenpox Surveillance in Yunnan, China: Infodemiology Study

In China, chickenpox is reported through the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Because chickenpox is a viral disease with mild and self-limiting symptoms, it has not been included in the Chinese National Disease Reporting System for statutory infectious diseases. There is no uniform standard for reporting chickenpox cases across China.

Effectiveness of a Personalized, Chess-Based Training Serious Video Game in the Treatment of Adolescents and Young Adults With Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: Randomized Controlled Trial

Effectiveness of a Personalized, Chess-Based Training Serious Video Game in the Treatment of Adolescents and Young Adults With Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder: Randomized Controlled Trial

Control group intervention (CG group): each patient received 12 phone communications (1 per week). In these communications, they were asked about medication usage, mood, and school performance, among other issues. The primary end point was the change from baseline to the end of treatment in the “Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-2” (BRIEF-2) questionnaire filled out by the patients’ parents [49,50].

Web-Based Single Session Intervention for Perceived Control Over Anxiety During COVID-19: Randomized Controlled Trial

Web-Based Single Session Intervention for Perceived Control Over Anxiety During COVID-19: Randomized Controlled Trial

If one perceives control over their ability to reduce anxious responses (eg, racing thoughts, pounding heart), theory suggests that one is likely to experience less distress, regardless of actual control [15,16]. Empirical evidence consistently supports this idea. Individuals reporting lower perceived control of their internal experiences exhibit higher levels of anxiety (ranging from nonclinical to clinical levels), regardless of objective levels of control [17,18].

EpiHacks, a Process for Technologists and Health Experts to Cocreate Optimal Solutions for Disease Prevention and Control: User-Centered Design Approach

EpiHacks, a Process for Technologists and Health Experts to Cocreate Optimal Solutions for Disease Prevention and Control: User-Centered Design Approach

Technology can play an important role in the prevention and control of infectious disease. Historically, developing technical solutions has required substantial financial resources, human capacity, and time. All too often, innovative technologies that are introduced as pilot projects or research endeavors are terminated prematurely due to a lack of sustained funding or a lack of a postresearch plan.

Adoption of Preventive Measures During the Very Early Phase of the COVID-19 Outbreak in China: National Cross-sectional Survey Study

Adoption of Preventive Measures During the Very Early Phase of the COVID-19 Outbreak in China: National Cross-sectional Survey Study

Comprehensive control measures were enacted (eg, testing, quarantining, contact tracing, cancelling public events, closing of public areas, extending Chinese New Year holidays, and mandatory face-mask wearing [5,6]), and patients with COVID-19 were treated in more than 30 speedily built hospitals by medical specialists in different provinces across the country [7]. Many countries soon used similar standard strategies to combat COVID-19.
