Determinants of Weight Status and Body, Health and Life Satisfaction in Young Adults.

Health behaviors include behavioral patterns and habits that relate to health maintenance, restoration and improvement. They do not only affect the physical condition; they are also associated with life satisfaction. In our study, we focused on young adulthood, a specific lifespan period for establishing long-term health behavior patterns.

GMM-Based Expanded Feature Space as a Way to Extract Useful Information for Rare Cell Subtypes Identification in Single-Cell Mass Cytometry.

Cell subtype identification from mass cytometry data presents a persisting challenge, particularly when dealing with millions of cells. Current solutions are consistently under development, however, their accuracy and sensitivity remain limited, particularly in rare cell-type detection due to frequent downsampling. Additionally, they often lack the capability to analyze large data sets.

Determinants of Attitude to a Humanoid Social Robot in Care for Older Adults: A Post-Interaction Study.

BACKGROUND While there is a growing body of research examining opinions on social robots in elderly care, there is a lack of comprehensive studies investigating the underlying factors influencing these opinions. The Godspeed Questionnaire Series (GQS) measures perceptions related to human-robot interactions (HRIs). The Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) is widely used to evaluate physical, cognitive, and social functions of older patients.

The Godspeed Questionnaire Series in the Assessment of the Social Robot TIAGo by Older Individuals.

(1) Background: A robot in care for older adults requires solid research confirming its acceptance. The aim of this study was to present the Polish version of the Godspeed Questionnaire Series (GQS) and assess the perception of the social robot TIAGo; (2) Methods: The study involved older individuals living in the community and care homes and measured perception after interaction with TIAGo using five series of GQS (S1: Anthropomorphism, S2: Animacy, S3: Likeability, S4: Perceived intelligence, and S5: Perceived safety); (3) Results: We studied 178 individuals (age: 75.2 ± 9.

The Effects of Stakeholder Perceptions on the Use of Humanoid Robots in Care for Older Adults: Postinteraction Cross-Sectional Study.

Background: Efficient use of humanoid social robots in the care for older adults requires precise knowledge of expectations in this area. There is little research in this field that includes the interaction of stakeholders with the robot. Even fewer studies have compared the perceptions of older people (as care recipients) and professional caregivers (representing those taking care of older adults in teams with robots).
