Concept vocabulary in children who are deaf or hard of hearing
This longitudinal study compares concept vocabulary knowledge of children with cochlear implants (n = 40) and children with hearing aids (n = 30) to that of their typical hearing peers (n = 40). Participants completed the Bracken Basic Concept Scale: Expressive (BBCS:E) at ages 4 and 6. Results revealed significant differences in concept vocabulary knowledge between both groups of children who are deaf or hard of hearing (DHH) and the typical hea…
Lessons Learned in a Large-Scale Mass Casualty Simulation
BACKGROUND: Traditional Nursing Programs are required to provide student instruction regarding disaster care. The Brigham Young University College of Nursing, in conjunction with campus emergency medical services (EMS), holds two large-scale mass casualty simulations each year. Nursing students work alongside EMS to provide initial care to the victims. METHOD: After the mass casualty simulation, nursing students completed an anonymous survey eval…
Vocabulary-learning cues used on children’s bilingual programming
This study is a content analysis of bilingual children’s television through the lens of bilingual language learning. In this study, we examined the content of five popular children’s television shows (Dora the Explorer, Go, Diego, Go!, Maya & Miguel, Handy Manny, and Nina’s World), and their use of languages (noun tokens, phrases, translations), and vocabulary-learning cues to support vocabulary in preschoolers. Our findings indicate that there a…
Location Effects on Spoken Language and Literacy for Children who are DHH
The purpose of this study was to consider how living in an area that qualifies for a rural health grant interacts with a child’s hearing status to affect early language and literacy development. Four-year-old children with hearing aids (n = 45), cochlear implants (n = 47), and with typical hearing (n = 66) completed measures of spoken language knowledge and of emergent literacy skills as part of a larger longitudinal investigation. A significant …
Holy Saturday and the Experience of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Comparing Word Characteristic Effects on Vocabulary of Children with Cochlear Implants
Many studies have evaluated overall vocabulary knowledge of children who use cochlear implants, but there has been minimal focus on how word form characteristics affect this knowledge. This study evaluates the effects of neighborhood density and phonotactic probability on the expressive vocabulary of 81 children between five and seven years old (n = 27 cochlear implant users, n = 27 children matched for chronological age, and n = 27 children matc…
Vocabulary Knowledge of Children With Cochlear Implants
Characterization of Norwegian women eating wholegrain bread
Objective To investigate dietary and non-dietary characteristics of wholegrain bread eaters in the Norwegian Women and Cancer study. Design Cross-sectional study using an FFQ. Setting Women were divided into two groups according to wholegrain bread consumption. Subjects Adult women ( n 69 471). Results Median daily consumption of standardized slices of wholegrain bread was 2·5 in the low intake group and 4·5 in the high intake group. The OR for h…
Effects of a Word-Learning Training on Children With Cochlear Implants
Preschool children with hearing loss who use cochlear implants demonstrate vocabulary delays when compared to their peers without hearing loss. These delays may be a result of deficient word-learning abilities; children with cochlear implants perform more poorly on rapid word-learning tasks than children with normal hearing. This study explored the malleability of rapid word learning of preschoolers with cochlear implants by evaluating the effect…
Identifying dietary patterns using a normal mixture model
BACKGROUND: Finite mixture models posit the existence of a latent categorical variable and can be used for probabilistic classification. The authors illustrate the use of mixture models for dietary pattern analysis. An advantage of this approach is taking classification uncertainty into account. METHODS: Participants were a random sample of women from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer. Food consumption was measured using dietary …

We found an overall negative socioeconomic gradient in cancer survival when SES is measured as years of education or gross household income. Smoking status prior to diagnosis was an important predictive factor for socioeconomic variation in survival
General and Abdominal Adiposity and Risk of Death in Europe
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have relied predominantly on the body-mass index (BMI, the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters) to assess the association of adiposity with the risk of death, but few have examined whether the distribution of body fat contributes to the prediction of death. METHODS: We examined the association of BMI, waist circumference, and waist-to-hip ratio with the risk of death among 359,387 partici…
