Acceptability, Barriers, and Facilitators to Home-Based Syphilis Self-testing: A Scoping Review
Syphilis remains a persistent global health concern despite the availability of effective treatment. Regular screening is essential for prevention and early detection, yet clinic-based testing uptake is often limited by stigma, accessibility, and lengthy procedures. Home-based syphilis self-testing has emerged as an alternative approach to expand syphilis testing access. This scoping review synthesized current evidence on acceptability, barriers,…
Goal Understanding and Anonymous Cyberbullying in Social Media: How Victims Interpret, Cope with, and Respond to Hurtful Messages Online
We experimentally manipulated social media affordances theoretically linked to cyberbullies’ anonymity using hypothetical scenarios taking advantage of the diverse ways people get bullied by someone they can identify versus an anonymous cyberbully. Nine different social media platforms–from TikTok, Twitter, and Tumblr to Instagram, iMessage, and Email–manipulated a cyberbully’s anonymity to uncover pathways known to precipitate poor mental health…

Normal heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems typically use high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters, which can filter dust, various pollutants, and even bacteria and viruses from indoor air. However, since HEPA filters cannot not clean themselves and due to the nature of these microbes which can survive for long periods of time, changing these filters improperly could transmit pathogenic bacteria or viruses, and could ev…
Hollywood’s Global Expansion and Racialized Film Industry
A theory on the political economy of image production argues that the U.S. film industry, namely, Hollywood, prioritizes financial considerations over racial justice or political correctness. Decisions made in the production and marketing processes are to minimize financial risks, but they often limit the representation of racial–ethnic minority filmmakers and actors. At the same time, Hollywood incorporates foreign-born directors and actors to r…
