Vaginal births after caesarean: What does Google think about it?

AimVaginal birth after caesarean (VBAC) is a relatively safe alternative to repeat caesarean birth in the proper context. This important decision to undergo an elective caesarean versus VBAC is ultimately a decision of the mother. The purpose of our study was to assess the quality of online information in relation to VBAC collected using the most common search engine: Google.MethodsThe 10 most common hit sites for the keywords “VBAC” and “Vaginal birth after caesarean” were evaluated using the search engine Google. The quality of websites was rated based on the Silberg scale for accountability, the modified Abbott's criteria for presentation and the SMOG index for readability. The content of each website was compared to the Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Canada (SOGC) guidelines for VBAC.Findings13 out of 20 identified websites met the adequate criteria for accountability, with 85% of the websites indicating authorship. 11 websites were deemed aesthetically agreeable. The target audience, assessed by the readability score, was notably above the non-medical population with an average SMOG index score of 14.75. Only half of the websites contained recommendations, as detailed by the SOGC guidelines.ConclusionAlmost all sites target a higher academic level, making it beyond the comprehension of the general population. Woman friendly web-assessment tools should be provided to enable pregnant women to take an active role in their decision making.     

我国高校文科学报的“当代化”论

高校文科学报的“当代化”是相对于时下盛行的“现代化”而言的。它是根据我国高校文科学报的发生及其发展历程的阶段性特征 ,以及“当代化”所蕴涵的人类文明进程的阶段性定位和“与时俱进”的时代性体现的科学内涵而提出来的。“当代化”具有现实性和求真性的鲜明特征 ,对于 2 1世纪我国高校文科学报的发展是一种求真务实的选择。     

东汉末年的“求真”思潮

东汉末年社会上产生了一股强大的“求真”思潮,在理想与现实、真理与谬误、虚妄与真实等多方面的矛盾与对立中寻找出路,构成了东汉思想的主要趋向。“求真”思潮的产生有多方面的原因,同时其表现形式也是多方面的,其产生的后果也是多方面的,其中之一就是儒家思想自身的修正与道家思想的兴起。     

从吉语格言印论汉代祈福与修身的思想

汉印中的吉语格言印如同先秦时期的吉语格言古玺一样,并不具备信物的功能,其内容往往都是一些以祈福为目的的吉祥语词或修身的箴言。对所能见到的汉代吉语格言印内容进行比较整理和分类,并结合传世文献对其所反映出的汉代人们祈福与修身的思想进行分析和探讨。     

论刑事审判的价值追求

我国刑事审判的价值追求应是,一要确保无罪的人不受刑事追究,二要打击和惩罚犯罪,三要实现罪刑均衡,四要教育感化犯罪人。这样就会更高层次地提高我国刑事法治的整体水平,影响刑事司法与整个社会经济发展、文明进步的协调一致,并最终促进当代社会最为关注的目标———人权保障目标的实现。

下降到城邦的哲学——柏拉图《帕默尼德》的开篇

《帕默尼德》被称做柏拉图最难解的对话之一,前后两个部分在形式与内容上看似极不平衡,纯哲学的逻辑讨论包裹在戏剧情节下,开篇的情节看似离题,实则是理解第二部分的钥匙。开篇戏剧场景的设置包含了柏拉图对哲学基本处境的深刻洞察。在《帕默尼德》的开场,克拉佐枚奈的爱智者与埃利亚的爱智者都被置于雅典城邦的政治中心,哲学的探问处于宗教节庆的背景之下。     

Too Scared or Too Capable? Why Do College Students Stay Away from the H1N1 Vaccine?

Although college students were among the populations that had the highest frequency of infection for H1N1 influenza, only 8% of them received H1N1 vaccine this past flu season nationwide. During the peak of this pandemic, information about H1N1 vaccine was widely available. However, knowledge test and behavioral data indicated that most college students were not equipped with basic facts about H1N1 and the H1N1 vaccine. To investigate socio‐psychological factors that might have deterred this high‐risk population from learning about and getting the H1N1 vaccine, this study tested the utility of a risk information seeking model in addressing this health communication problem. Data collected from an online survey of 371 college students showed that respondents seemed to overestimate how much they knew about the vaccine. Risk information seeking, however, positively influenced their intentions to get the vaccine. Results suggested that to communicate effectively to this population, it is important to emphasize the difference between perceived knowledge and actual knowledge, monitor emotional responses to potential risks, and promote getting flu vaccination as a socially desirable behavior.     

小我争(护)面子与大我争面子导向之关系的探讨

本研究的目的是从中国人为大我争面子的行为与小我争(或护)面子行为间的关系的角度探讨中国人大我争面子行为的心理学意义.研究一结果显示:小我争、护面子导向量表得分双高组的大我争面子量表得分显著高于一高组和双低组,即提示前者更需要采取为大我争面子的方式来解决小我争面子与护面子需要间的冲突;研究二结果显示:小我争面子导向高的个体会在能力类特质上进行自我增强,小我护面子导向高的个体会在共享类特质上进行自我增强,而大我争面子导向高的个体则同时在两类特质上表现出自我增强,即提示为大我争面子可以让个体同时实现两类社会赞许价值.最后,笔者针对本研究所存在的问题以及进一步研究的议题进行了讨论.     

Full of Sound and Fury,Signifying Something: The Impact of Autonomic Arousal on EGM Gambling

An experiment was conducted to observe the influence of autonomic arousal on subsequent gambling behavior. Thirty-seven male and 32 female regular Electronic Gaming Machine (EGM) players were recruited through newspaper advertisements. Participants were randomly assigned to either: (1) a control condition, or (2) an experimental condition that introduced a loud white-noise event (80 db) at fixed 120 s intervals throughout the 5-min EGM gambling session. Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) measurements showed that the manipulation was successful in elevating autonomic arousal. The results showed differences in behavioral response to the manipulation based on prior experience with gambling problems. Persons with many gambling problems had lower average bet-sizes in the white-noise condition compared to the control, while those with few or no problems had higher average bet-sizes. The results suggest that arousal may provide different signals to gamblers with few versus many problems. Gamblers with many problems may interpret their arousal as a sign that they will soon lose money, while gamblers with few or no problems may associate feelings of arousal exclusively with winning.
