Polymedia Literacy and Other Ethical Considerations for Online Ethnographic Research on Social Networking Sites.

Drawing on the authors' own ethnographic research, this article discusses the importance of developing polymedia literacy as a key step toward ethical online research on social networking sites (SNS). Polymedia literacy entails the ability to critically analyze the vast landscape of SNS, their affordances, and users' social motivations for choosing specific SNS for their interactions. Internet researchers face several ethical challenges, including issues of informed consent, "public" and "private" online spaces, and data protection.

Self-Compassion as a Mediator of the Relationship between Adult Women's Attachment and Intuitive Eating.

Despite growing interest in intuitive eating-a non-dieting approach to eating that is based on feeding the body in accordance with physiological and satiety cues-research on its determinants is scarce. The present study aimed to examine the associations between dimensions of adult attachment (i.e.

Selective Dorsal Root Rhizotomy for Spastic Cerebral Palsy: A Longitudinal Case-Control Analysis of Functional Outcome.

Background: The benefit of selective dorsal rhizotomies (SDR) on motor function relative to the cerebral palsy (CP) natural history remains unknown.

Objective: To determine the functional benefit of SDR over the longitudinal CP natural history.

Methods: Retrospective, single-center, case-control study of patients post-SDR after 1990.

A de novo frameshift FGFR1 mutation extending the protein in an individual with multiple epiphyseal dysplasia and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism without anosmia.

Multiple epiphyseal dysplasia (MED) is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous disease with both dominant and recessive inheritance. Eight different genes are known to cause the disease but in 15% of cases of MED, no mutation is found. Fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) is a crucial regulator of bone formation and when mutated, can cause diseases with skeletal manifestations; nevertheless, MED has not been described in individuals with FGFR1 mutations.

Implementation of Active Workstations in University Libraries-A Comparison of Portable Pedal Exercise Machines and Standing Desks.

Sedentary behaviors are an important issue worldwide, as prolonged sitting time has been associated with health problems. Recently, active workstations have been developed as a strategy to counteract sedentary behaviors. The present study examined the rationale and perceptions of university students’ and staff following their first use of an active workstation in library settings.
