Background And Aims: The Interaction of Person-Affect-Cognition-Execution (I-PACE) model of behavioral addictions is used relatively often as a scientific framework to specify research hypotheses and to interpret empirical findings in behavioral addiction research. There are, however, controversial interpretations in the literature regarding some specific elements of the model, which may require a more precise definition of specific constructs and processes that are central to the I-PACE model.
Methods: This is neither a comprehensive literature review nor a proposal for a new version of the I-PACE model.

(1) Background: Although social cognitive theory (SCT) has been widely tested and applied in numerous interventions aimed at optimizing physical activity behavior, the complete theory has rarely been tested in its entirety. Only selected elements have been tested, and specific samples, some of them pathological, have been studied rather than the general population, for whom a lack of physical activity is a huge problem. The present study addresses these two research gaps and tests the tenability of the theoretical assumptions of SCT to explain physical activity behavior in the general population.

The purpose of this study is to assess diaphragmatic hernia recurrence rates in the first 5 years of life using a multicenter cohort.
Methods: A database was established with data from 4 centers collected retrospectively at perinatal, discharge, 2 years, and 5 years.
Background: Librarians have relied on resource lists for developing nursing collections, but these lists are usually in static or subscription-based formats. An example of this is the 26th edition of the Essential Nursing Resources last published in 2012. The Nursing and Allied Health Resources and Services (NAHRS) Caucus Nursing Essential Resources List (NNERL) Task Force has been working on a new list since Fall 2020.

This paper presents results of a large research-practice network at German university outpatient clinics; the KODAP initiative. Pre-post effect sizes, direct assessments of change, and rates of clinically significant and reliable improvement are reported in a heterogeneous clinical sample of 6624 adult patients treated between 2023 and 2014 in 29 psychotherapeutic outpatient clinics.
