Validation of a Four Factor Measure: Scale of Perceived Instructor Support.

Academic-related stressors are common for college students, such as future career decisions or pressures to succeed academically.

Perceived support from an academic community, peers, or family can provide a buffer to mitigate the effects of these stressors.

A systematic review-meta-analysis and meta-regression on the effect of selected competitive exclusion products on Salmonella spp. prevalence and concentration in broiler chickens.

The effectiveness of various competitive exclusion (CE) products for reducing Salmonella colonization in broiler chickens was evaluated using systematic review-meta-analysis-meta-regression (SR-MA-MR). Relevance screening identified 201 relevant studies that were subjected to methodological assessment. Of these studies, 159 were suitable for data extraction, 66 were presented in a number of MAs and 130 were examined in a meta-regression (MR).
