Examining the effectiveness of education based on social learning theory in fostering self-care and social skills in school children: A randomized controlled trial.

Purpose: This study was conducted to examine the effectiveness of a training program prepared on the basis of the Social Learning Theory for teaching self-care and social competence behaviors in preschool children.

Design And Method: The sample of the study consisted of 41 in the intervention, 41 in the control group. Data were collected with Demographic Assessment Form, the Self-Care Skills Assessment Scale and the Social Competence and Behavior Evaluation-30 Scale.

The application of the self-care deficit nursing theory in adolescents with cystic fibrosis: A randomized controlled study.

Purpose: The present study evaluates the effects of the application of Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory (SCDNT) on the self-care knowledge and skills in adolescents with Cystic Fibrosis.

Design And Methods: This randomized controlled study included 30 adolescents who were equally divided into the intervention and control groups. The data were collected by using the Sociodemographic Data Form and the Self-Care Knowledge and Skills Evaluation Forms for Adolescents with Cystic Fibrosis.

Electrical and Photodetector Characteristics of Schottky Structures Interlaid with P(EHA) and P(EHA--AA) Functional Polymers by the iCVD Method.

In this study, poly(2-ethylhexyl acrylate) (PEHA) homopolymer and its copolymer combined with acrylic acid P(EHA--AA) were employed as interfaces in two separate Schottky structures. First, both interfaces were grown by initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD), which provides much better deposition control and homogeneous coating compared to solution-phase methods. In addition to this advantageous method, the effects of two different polymers, one of which is better able to adhere to the crystal surface on which it is formed than the other, on the optoelectronic properties have been studied.

A Comparative Study on UHPLC-HRMS Profiles and Biological Activities of Different Extracts and Its Beta-Cyclodextrin Complex: Effective Insights for Novel Applications.

Within this particular framework, the extracts obtained from using a variety of solvents, included n-hexane, ethyl acetate, dichloromethane (DCM), 70% ethanol, ethanol, and water. The extracts obtained from n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and DCM were then subjected to a specific method for their incorporation into β-cyclodextrin (β-CD). The establishment of complex formation was validated through the utilization of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR).

Responses of individual and combined polystyrene and polymethyl methacrylate nanoplastics on hormonal content, fluorescence/photochemistry of chlorophylls and ROS scavenging capacity in Lemna minor under arsenic-induced oxidative stress.

Nanoplastics alter the adverse impacts of hazardous contaminants such as heavy metals by changing their adsorption and accumulation. Few findings are available on the interaction between nanoplastic and heavy metals in plants. However, there is no report on the mechanisms for removing metal stress-mediated oxidative damage by the combination treatments of nanoplastics.
