Auffindbarkeit, Wahrnehmbarkeit, Akzeptabilität
Many public authorities are now obliged to use plain language on their websites. The aim is to improve the participation of people with disabilities. But are the legal requirements and the resulting textual practice suitable for achieving this goal from the perspective of accessible communication? To answer this question, Katrin Lang looks at the categories of "findability", "perceptibility" and "acceptability", which have been little addressed i…
Covid-19 Vaccines Safety Tracking (CoVaST)
CoVaST is the first independent study aiming to monitor the side effects of COVID-19 vaccines following booster doses, and the long-term safety and effectiveness of said vaccines
Child Abuse Potential in Young German Parents
Since child maltreatment has highly negative effects on child adjustment, early identification of at-risk families is important. This study focuses on longitudinal risk factors for child maltreatment and associations between abuse risk and occurrence. It also examines whether abuse risk and involvement in early childhood intervention are associated. The sample comprises 197 German caregivers with children under 3 years of age. Data was collected …
Cancer Incidence Trends in the Oil Shale Industrial Region in Estonia
Large oil shale resources are found in Eastern Estonia, where the mineral resource is mined, excavated, and used for electricity generation and shale oil extraction. During industrial activities in the last 100 years, pollutants have been emitted in large amounts, some of which are toxic and carcinogenic. The current study aims to analyse time trends in cancer incidence in the oil shale industry-affected areas and compare them with overall cancer…
Foster children's attachment security in the first year after placement
Die Prävalenzstudie „Kinder in Deutschland – KiD 0-3“ zur Erfassung von psychosozialen Belastungen und Frühen Hilfen in Familien mit 0-3-jährigen Kindern
Alcohol and premature death in Estonian men
We have shown the feasibility of deploying an extended research protocol within the setting of routine forensic autopsies that offer scope to deepen our understanding of the alcohol-related burden of premature mortality. The most unique feature of the study is the information on a wide range of informative alcohol biomarkers, several of which have not been used previously in this sort of post-mortem research study. We have demonstrated, for the f…
Childhood deaths from external causes in Estonia, 2001–2005
Childhood mortality from injuries in Estonia is among the highest in the EU. The number of injury deaths in Statistical Office of Estonia is slightly underestimated mostly due to misclassification for deaths from diseases. Accuracy of the Statistical Office of Estonia data was high with some underestimation of intentional deaths. Moreover, high proportion of death with unknown intent suggests underestimation of intentional deaths. Reduction of in…
