Child Sexual Abuse (CSA) is not usually detected at the time it happens and it may take a long time for the disclosure by the victim to occur or to be detected, with the possibility that it may never occur. People with disabilities are particularly vulnerable. In the educational setting, teachers develop a degree of interaction with students that facilitates their observation in a natural environment for long periods. This allows them to be considered as a key agent in the detection of suspected cases of CSA. However, teachers may not feel sufficiently prepared, needing tools to guide such detection. This article presents the content validation, by Expert Judgement, following the Delphi Method, of a questionnaire to assess signs of CSA in children aged 3 to 12 years in educational settings. The instrument has been adapted for students with mild and moderate disabilities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

OBJECTIVE: Drug utilization studies (DUS), providing insights into various aspects of pharmacoepidemiology from prescribing to medication use, can be conducted through real-world data from health records and survey-based data. In this study, we aimed to describe survey/questionnaire-based DUS conducted in Turkiye. METHODS: We searched online databases for the most frequently used keywords in DUS from January 1993 till May 2023 and identified 180 survey-based DUS conducted in Turkiye. We described DUS by their populations, sociodemographic characteristics, timeframe, setting and provinces, data collection method, medication categories, and article-specific variables were evaluated. RESULTS: We identified that 68.3% of the DUS were in English and 91.7% were indexed in Web of Science (median 1 [interquartile range: 1-2] citation). We found that 21.7% of the articles (n=39) had pharmacology affiliation. Adults are the target population in 37.8% of the studies and age and gender were not reported in 27.2% and 16.7%, respectively. The response rate was not stated in 55.0%. We determined that 48.3% of the studies were focused on a single medication/medication group. The mean time from data collection to publication was 2.5±1.9 years, and the highest number of articles (10.6%) were published in 2021. CONCLUSION: Our systematic review shows that the majority of DUS were listed in well-known international indices, suggesting that our local studies invoke global interest and hold a valuable position in health research. Nevertheless, lack of reporting of methodological characteristics in substantial part of the studies can be considered an important room for improvement of DUS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

OBJECTIVE: There is a known association between lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) and constipation. The objective of this study was to investigate any correlation between voiding and bowel symptoms in children with LUTD. METHODS: Children presenting with LUTD to our pediatric urology unit were prospectively included. Demographic data were recorded. All patients filled out the "Pediatric Lower Urinary Tract Symptom Score" (P-LUTSS) and "Constipation and Fecal Incontinence Symptom Severity" (CFISS) questionnaires. Symptom score correlation and associations with clinical findings were evaluated. RESULTS: 76 patients were included. The mean P-LUTSS was 11±7.1; mean CFISS was 7.7±7.5. According to P-LUTSS risk groups, median CFISS score increased as the risk group was increased. There was direct correlation between P-LUTSS and CFISS for all patients. 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th and 13th questions of P-LUTSS were correlated with CFISS; the 1st and 7th questions of CFISS were correlated with P-LUTSS. Patients who responded not to have constipation on P-LUTSS had lower CFISS scores compared to those who had constipation. Patients who had a 0 score on CFISS had a mean P-LUTSS of 7.7±6.2, which put the majority of patients in low-risk group. Also, out of these 11 patients, 10 of them responded to have no constipation on P-LUTSS. CONCLUSION: A relationship between LUTD and bowel symptoms, as well as the positive correlation between P-LUTSS and CFISS was demonstrated in this study. Patients presenting with LUTD should undergo meticulous evaluation using special questionnaires for bowel symptoms. Only by then, a complete treatment approach can be provided.

This text deals with the case of the Castilian language schools in the Indigenous villages of the bishopric of Antequera at the beginning of the 19th century and their objective of teaching this language to the population and instructing them in the 'mysteries' of the Catholic religion. The work is based on two of the questions in a questionnaire that Bishop Antonio Bergosa y Jordán sent between 1802-1804 to the parish priests of the diocese and that are in relation to the languages spoken and the functioning of the schools. The questionnaire presents information about the linguistic and school situation at the parish level, as well as the perceptions of the priests, and those they attribute to the Indigenous population, regarding the schools and its purposes. In most cases, it is mentioned that poverty and the 'resistance' of the Indigenous people, as well as the non-attendance of children at school, did not allow the schools' objective to be achieved. The analysis allows us to observe two ways of thinking 'in opposition' about the same phenomenon. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: Occupational health and safety is affected by various internal and external factors, most importantly the human factor. The objective of this study was to design and validate a questionnaire to measure the level of worker participation in occupational health and safety management systems. Method: To design the questionnaire, Peruvian regulations and recommendations from international institutions, among others, were consulted. The qualitative validation was based on expert judgment, using the content validity coefficient (CVC). For quantitative validation, we conducted a reliability analysis using Cronbach's alpha coefficient, correlation analysis of the questions, and construct validity analysis using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. Results: We designed a 25-item questionnaire with a CVC of 0.94. The quantitative validation was performed at the Industrial Engineering College of the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, resulting in the elimination of 5 questions based on results of the reliability, construct and exploratory factor analyses. In the confirmatory factor analysis, the remaining 20 questions had factor loadings greater than 0.50, and a repeat reliability analysis yielded a Cronbach's alpha of 0.949. Conclusions: This validated questionnaire will allow the determination of the degree of participation in occupational safety and health in companies, as well as the ability to assess needs and impact of implemented improvements.

When you think about the interview and the survey, you think of social research instruments, but with different characteristics and in some cases attached to incompatible paradigms. However, they share a fundamental common characteristic that makes them part of the same continuum: they are dialogic-conversational. Thus, here it is stated that they are a specific epistemological moment within the dialogue, and that, as such, their characteristics will be determined by the restriction and freedom to ask, and by the restriction and freedom to answer. Consequently, interviews and surveys are expressions of a conversational continuum that conditions the interaction between those who ask and those who answer. This could even disrupt the paradigmatic ascription of each instrument. Every social scientist should be aware of this. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

OBJECTIVE: To describe clinical and epidemiologic features of tinnitus in one outpatient setting using the European School for Interdisciplinary Tinnitus Research Screening Questionnaire (ESIT-SQ). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cross-sectional study was done from January to April 2022, in which the questionnaire ESIT-SQ was applied to patients who referred tinnitus recently or at least over the last year care at a high-complexity institution in Medellin, Colombia. A descriptive analysis was performed using STATA.15. RESULTS: One hundred forty-six participants were included. Females (53.4%) with a median age of 46 years (RIC 31-61) were mostly affected. Tinnitus of gradual onset (44.9%), bilateral (38.6%), intermittent (60.4%), ranging from medium to high frequencies (33.7%) pure toned (53%) were mostly described. At least 50% of patients have not previously visited outpatient settings for this symptom before and only 39% were treated. Acute otitis media, presbycusis and acoustic trauma were the otologic diseases mostly associated to tinnitus. CONCLUSIONS: Bilateral tinnitus with gradual onset and intermittent characteristics with a pure tone were described in middle-aged women at a tertiary institution in Colombia. The use of the ESIT-SQ questionnaire allows for comprehensive clinical characterization and description of tinnitus. Increased usage in Latin America would enable comparative studies with greater clinical and audiological impact. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the educational environment in the Internal Medicine residency at a second level hospital in Mexico. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Quantitative and descriptive study of cross-sectional design. The ACA-UNAM-MEX instrument was applied to Internal Medicine residents of the Dr. Juan I Menchaca Civil Hospital of Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, voluntarily and anonymously, during the first trimester of 2023. The questionnaire consisted of 28 items with four response options (almost always, regularly, sometimes and almost never). The four dimensions that the instrument evaluated were: interpersonal relationships, educational program and its implementation, institutional culture, and service dynamics. RESULTS: Thirty-three residents responded the instrument (19 were female). Quantitative data denote an educational environment that is slightly more positive than negative. Important problems were identified in the area of interpersonal relations and the educational program and its implementation, with better results observed in the dimensions of institutional culture and dynamics of the service. CONCLUSIONS: The educational environment of the Internal Medicine residency of this hospital was slightly more positive than negative, with some important aspects to improve. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: In 2021, the Community of Madrid intensified their fight against the pandemic by incorporating the community pharmacy network to its public health program for the early detection, surveillance, and control of COVID-19. Specifically, pharmacies participated in the performance of rapid antigen testing for the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection and provided the population with free self-testing kits. From the Official College of Pharmacy of Madrid ("Colegio Oficial de Farmacéuticos de Madrid"), a study was conducted to evaluate the professional involvement and role of community pharmacists, as well as the degree of information demanded by the public during the distribution of self-testing kits. Methods: This was an observational, cross-sectional, prospective study that employed online surveys collected between May 4th and 17th 2022. Results: 76.8 % of pharmacists offered technical information to approximately 58 % of users that came to retrieve their self-testing kits. 26 % of users returned for additional advice, and 1/3 of users asked for the test to be conducted in the pharmacy. The most frequent intervention (61 %) was providing information on test usage and interpretation. In most cases (56.7 %), pharmacists spent between 1-5 minutes in the distribution of self-testing kits, with a lower percentage (20.3 %) spending between 5-10 minutes. Notably, 98.3 % of pharmacists identified that this public health campaign altered their daily workflow, with 86 % considering that there should have been financial compensation for their involvement. Conclusions: This study highlighted the crucial role that pharmacists played in the public health campaign against COVID-19. Moreover, it reflected the pharmacists' opinions on their involvement in this novel role, separate from their traditional workflow, that ultimately contributed to improving population health.

Although various types of self-report measures have been published to assess disgust propensity or sensitivity, no scale has yet been published to assess disgust response types, including physiological, cognitive, and behavioral components. The aim of the present study was to develop a new scale to assess this facet of disgust. The study was based on a sample of 913 participants from six Spanish-speaking countries, with an age range of 18 to 76 years (M = 32.08, SD = 11.43), 72.3 % of whom were women. Based on exploratory factor analyses of a large set of disgust reactions, we obtained a three-factor structure representing the three dimensions of disgust response, i.e., the cognitive, behavioral, and physiological components. The final instrument was reduced to 15 items (5 for each response component) related to 10 prototypical disgust situations, including three separate disgust response subscales (i.e., Physiological, Cognitive and Behavioral). Consistent evidence is provided on the factor structure of the scale (three correlated factors), as well as on its reliability and validity (convergent, discriminant, and predictive validity). The clinical utility of the new scale is discussed, as well as its relevance in the field of disgust research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The main objective of this article was to determine the dimensional structure of the model and the instrument to measure the level of management skill of primary school principals in the state of Durango, Mexico. The theoretical model of essential abilities by Whetten and Cameron was taken as a reference, as well as the domains, criteria, and indicators for the principal's profile in the New Mexican School. Fundamented in the post positivist paradigm and in the quantitative approach, a non-experimental and crosssectional study, with an instrumental type was carried out, implementing as a technique a survey applied to a total of 426 principals. The results created a structural model of seven dimensions and an instrument integrated by 32 items. Dimensions were designated as conflict resolution, emotion management, objectives achievement, personal behavior, support, performance, and teamwork. The goodness of fit measures allowed to determinate the acceptability of the model. The final reliability of the instrument shown a Cronbach's alpha of .946. With this and the rest of the psychometric properties presented, make the model and the instrument valuable tools for the study of the topic. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: The assessment of video game addiction is typically performed from the DSM-5 criteria, which are based on adult population despite adolescents being the most vulnerable to this disorder. The TDV is a video game addiction test specifically aimed at Spanish-speaking adolescents, initially composed of four second-order factors of video game addiction (Abstinence, Abuse and Tolerance, Lack of Control and Associated Problems). This instrument has been validated in different Latin American countries, but with different factor structures. The present study distinguishes the reference factorial model of the TDV by subjecting it to a detailed analysis of its psychometric properties. Methods: During 2017-2021, the TDV was administered to 3229 adolescents from Spanish and Latin American educational centers. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to select the most appropriate internal structure of the TDV and to analyze its validity, reliability and equivalence of measurement across gender and culture groups. Results: All the factorial models of the TDV showed good performance, especially the multidimensional ones. The most appropriate for the instrument was the original TDV model. The psychometric study of its internal properties showed that it accurately and representatively measures the components of video game addiction in Spanish-speaking adolescents. Discussion and conclusion: The representativeness of Latin America in epidemiological studies has been compromised by the lack of homogeneity in the assessment. The cross-cultural validity of the TDV indicates that it is a useful instrument for descriptive and interventional purposes in Spain and Latin America. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, the presence of educational technology in schools has intensified. The adoption of digital educational technologies and platforms is transforming teaching-learning processes, adding new complexities in terms of school linkage, rights and equity. While there has been a growing interest in children’s rights (and the right to privacy in particular) in relation to the use of digital networks and platforms in recent decades, there is still little evidence as to the perceptions of families of the use of these technologies in educational contexts. Therefore, this article presents the design and psychometric validation of an instrument that allows us to delve into the opinions and concerns of families with regard to the presence of technological corporations (BigTech) in schools and the use of digital educational platforms by their children. The instrument was designed after a review of the literature on the subject and interviews with experts in this field of study. The design of the questionnaire was enriched with the comments and recommendations of specialists and families gathered via three validation processes. The instrument was implemented online to a representative sample of families with children enrolled in primary and secondary public schools in Catalonia. The analysis of the results shows the suitability of the proposed dimensions and the reliability of the instrument. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Analysing user experience (UX) is a key factor in evaluating website quality. There are 20 methods for this purpose that, through qualitative or quantitative perspectives, examine people’s attitudes, behaviours or context of use. However, for different economic or practical reasons, this type of study is usually less utilized than heuristic evaluations. Therefore, this article details and recommends the most effective techniques in a prioritized manner. Web analytics –the tool that collects the largest amount of data– is in first place, followed by usability tests, observation and questionnaires. All of these have the aim of facilitating the listening to of users’ voices and finding out what it is they really do when on a website. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
