The presence of face masks can significantly impact processes related to trait impressions from faces. In the present research, we focused on trait impressions from faces either wearing a mask or not by addressing how contextual factors may shape such inferences. In Study 1, we compared trait impressions from faces in a phase of the COVID-19…

Wayne Journell – Journal of Education, 2025
This study focuses on how four U.S. History textbooks portrayed the COVID-19 pandemic as a recent historical event. The findings from the study suggest that the textbooks provided a disjointed narrative that did not fully explain aspects of the pandemic, such as why COVID-19 caused so much societal upheaval. The textbooks also often dodged…

The usefulness of health communication in promoting health programs through various communication strategies plays a key role in raising awareness on the prevention of diseases within the community. However, there are currently no existing studies that focus specifically on community diseases such as dengue fever. Therefore, this study aimed to…

Background: Aspiration pneumonia (AP) is a subset of pneumonia caused by the aspiration of food and fluids to the lungs and is highly prevalent in the older population. Oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) is one of the risk factors for AP and it is also associated with malnutrition, dehydration and poor functional outcomes. As pneumonia is the second…

Brian Erly; Parker Jackson; Therese Pilonetti – Journal of School Nursing, 2025
During the 2020-2021 school year, many schools adopted remote learning or a part-time in-person learning ("hybrid") approach to reduce the risk of in-school transmission of COVID-19. The purpose of this work is to describe case rates of COVID-19 in schools practicing different learning modalities on rates of COVID-19 to support…

Using Physical Simulations to Motivate the Use of Differential Equations in Models of Disease Spread
Elizabeth G. Arnold; Elizabeth A. Burroughs; Owen Burroughs; Mary Alice Carlson – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
The SIR model is a differential equations based model of the spread of an infectious disease that compartmentalises individuals in a population into one of three states: those who are susceptible to a disease (S), those who are infected and can transmit the disease to others (I), and those who have recovered from the disease and are now immune…

Objective: A small percentage of universities and colleges conducted mass SARS-CoV-2 testing. However, universal testing is resource-intensive, strains national testing capacity, and false negative tests can encourage unsafe behaviors. Participants: A large urban university campus. Methods: Virus control centered on three pillars: mitigation,…

Terry L. Rentner; Saud A. Alsulaiman – Journal of American College Health, 2024
Objective: The COVID-19 pandemic has created unprecedented challenges for university administrators and health professionals to keep doors open and students safe. Optimistic bias and the Health Belief Model serve as foundations for understanding students' perceived susceptibility and severity for contracting the virus and their perceived benefits…

Lee, Yongseong; Jeong, Su Keun – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
During the COVID-19 pandemic, face masks have been widely used in daily life. Previous studies have suggested that faces wearing typical masks that occlude the lower half of the face are perceived as more attractive than face without masks. However, relatively little work has been done on how transparent masks that reveal the lower half of the…

Andal, Aireen Grace – Journal of Early Childhood Literacy, 2023
This article examines spatiality in selected children's books about COVID-19. Spatiality is an important lens because the coronavirus pandemic is a crisis related to distancing and mobility restrictions--spatial matters. Benedict Anderson's notion of imagined communities was adopted as a framework to how children's books present community…

Barcelos, Chris A. – Sex Education: Sexuality, Society and Learning, 2023
Fisting is a sexual practice that is almost always left out of sex and sexuality education. It elicits strong reactions, both from practitioners who describe it as a highly pleasurable, safe, and even spiritual activity, and from critics and clinicians who condemn it as dangerous. Fisting has attracted little scholarly attention but has ignited…

This paper focuses on the ethical position of the mask within the contemporary moment of COVID-19 and against the Levinasian concept of face. Drawing from autoethnographic, theoretical, and political discourses, this paper attempts to create an historical and social exploration of Mike Pence's public eschewing of his mask in early 2020 as a means…

Marshall, Julia; Lee, Young-eun; Deutchman, Paul; Wang, Zechao; Horsey, Charles Duren; Warneken, Felix; McAuliffe, Katherine – Developmental Psychology, 2023
A key aspect of children's moral and social understanding involves recognizing the value of helpful behaviors. COVID-19 has complicated this process; behaviors generally considered praiseworthy were considered problematic during the COVID-19 pandemic. The present study examined whether 6- to 12-year-olds (N = 228; residing in the United States)…
