The Most Bothersome Aspects of Periods Reported by Individuals with Parkinson's Disease.

Introduction: The periods in Parkinson's disease have a significantly negative impact on quality of life. What the most bothersome aspects of periods are from the patient's perspective are not well studied, nor is the degree to which screening tools for wearing off such as the Wearing Off Questionnaires (WOQs) capture what bothers patients most.

Methods: A questionnaire was deployed to eligible participants of Fox Insight, an online study of individuals with self-reported Parkinson's disease.

Dangerous Enough: Moderating Racial Bias with Contextual Threat Cues.

Research shows that participants shoot armed Blacks more frequently and quickly than armed Whites, but make don't-shoot responses more frequently and quickly for unarmed Whites than unarmed Blacks. We argue that this bias reflects the perception of threat - specifically, threat associated with Black males. Other danger cues (not just race) may create a similar predisposition to shoot, and if these cues promote shooting when the target is White, they should attenuate racial bias.
