Distinguishing anchoring from confirmation bias in diagnostic vignette studies
Cognitive biases in clinical decision-making have long been recognized as a major contributor to diagnostic error and patient harm, positioning them as a central concern in public health and healthcare quality research. Diagnostic error represents a substantial source of preventable patient harm, and cognitive biases have been repeatedly implicated as key contributors to these failures in clinical reasoning, particularly in internal medicine (1,4…
Commentary
In their article "Analysis of case management service quality for PCI patients based on the SERVQUAL model: a single-center prospective study", Wang et al. (1) analyze the quality of case management in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using the SERVQUAL model and Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA). Although the topic is highly relevant for hospital management, the methodology employed contains conceptual and statist…

This study employs the communication theory of identity (CTI) to examine how girl activists redefine activism in order to reconcile four distinct identity gaps. The participants (N = 19), aged 16 to 23, all self-identified as activists and were engaged in various activist spaces. Through a phronetic iterative analysis of semi-structured interviews and arts-based elicitation research, the data revealed the strategies that girl activists use to neg…
Occupational Identification and Assimilation of Pain Work
This study examines how professional aerial acrobats are socialized to navigate pain as a feature of their occupational identity. Drawing from qualitative interview and arts-based elicitation data from 27 professional aerialists, this study advances organizational communication and body work scholarship by introducing the concept of pain work as a new sub-category of body work. Pain work is a communicative, embodied practice through which workers…

Para ello, se analizó un corpus de entrevistas, observaci…
Building resilient surgical systems that can withstand external shocks
When surgical systems fail, there is the major collateral impact on patients, society and economies. While short-term impact on patient outcomes during periods of high system stress is easy to measure, the long-term repercussions of global crises are harder to quantify and require modelling studies with inherent uncertainty. When external stressors such as high-threat infectious disease, forced migration or climate-change-related events occur, th…

Perceived organizational influences on Western U.S. collegiate athletes’ attitudes toward concussion risks and concussion reporting
This paper investigates how cultural narratives from people at varying positions in a team culture affect athletes’ attitudes toward concussion injures and concussion reporting. Power Five National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) athletes (N = 226) competing in high-concussion risk sports completed a survey exploring the frequency with which they heard performance or safety narratives from three distinct organizational sources: coaches, At…
Service Learning in the Nursing Bachelor Thesis
The Final Degree Project (FDP) is a module that, although intended for the completion of a bachelor thesis (BT), consists of theoretical and clinical teaching. Therefore, introducing service learning (SL) can support student adjustments to the real-world professional role. This study plans to evaluate a teaching innovation project that combines BT and SL through Kirkpatrick's four-level model (reaction, learning, behaviour and results). It takes …
Fragmenting Feminine-Athletic Identities
This study employed a turning point analysis to document events that influence the development of athletic identities in female athletes transitioning into high school. All participants ( N = 28), between the ages of 14–15 years old, belonged to a competitive club soccer team located in the southwestern United States. Through an analysis of pre- and post-season interviews and bi-weekly video journal entries, data revealed several fragmenting turn…
Toward a typology for negotiating layered identities
This study documents how participants in an all-female youth sport organization negotiate oppositional discourses of identity. Employing Fairhurst and Putnam’s (2019) integrative method of organizational discourse analysis, the findings revealed hegemonic and alternative discourses related to gender (i.e., boys and girls are different; boys and girls are the same), which influenced how participants negotiated a nested feminine-athletic identity a…

A total of 166 participants (75 deaf) aged 3-8 years were administered the following tasks: facial emotion recognition, naming vocabulary and cognitive ability. The children's teachers or speech therapists also responded to two questionnaires, one on children's linguisti…
Identity Management and Relational Culture in Interfaith Marital Communication in a United States Context
This study explored the identity management processes in interfaith marital communication in a United States setting. Sixteen marital partners participated in this interview study. Interviews were transcribed verbatim, interpreted, and analyzed.

Miradas del desierto. Niños saharauis retratan la sociedad occidental
En 1966, los investigadores norteamericanos John Adair y Sol Worth prestaron siete sencillas cámaras de vídeo a siete Navajos para que grabaran sus propias películas a su manera, con una mínima instrucción técnica. La experiencia fue todo un éxito; los indios lograron reproducir en las imágenes tanto su propia concepción del mundo como su lugar en él. Este proyecto pretende reproducir aquel ensayo, entregando diez cámaras fotográficas a veinte de…
Human Ability to Recognize Kin Visually Within Primates
The assessment of relatedness is a key determinant in the evolution of social behavior in primates. Humans are able to detect kin visually in their own species using facial phenotypes, and facial resemblance in turn influences both prosocial behaviors and mating decisions. This suggests that cognitive abilities that allow facial kin detection in conspecifics have been favored in the species by kin selection. We investigated the extent to which hu…
Morphological taphonomic transformations of fossil bones in continental environments, and repercussions on their chemical composition
The aim of this paper is to provide a summary of structural or surface modifications of vertebrate bone remains in continental palaeoenvironments that may have repercussions on their chemical composition. Both before and after burial, a different set of physical, chemical and biological agencies may produce modifications of the bone morphological structure and/or bone chemical composition. Several of these morphological modifications are diagnost…
