The Feasibility of Occupation-Based Coaching for Autistic Children and Primary Caregivers.

Autistic children participate less and have fewer opportunities to develop participation skills than nonautistic peers. The extent to which occupation-based coaching (OBC), a metacognitive strategy training intervention, affects participation in school-age autistic children is unknown. We conducted a single-group pretest-posttest design to evaluate the feasibility and preliminary effect of telehealth OBC for autistic children ( = 13) and primary caregivers ( = 12).

Chronology versus centrality: uncovering age-related differences in order effects during the retrieval of autobiographical memories.

Despite the crucial role that the recall of autobiographical memories (AMs) plays for identity, the process of how we recall AMs, and whether retrieval processes undergo , has received little attention. The present study thus examined the order of AMs during recall, with a specific focus on time and centrality as guiding dimensions. A total of 364 participants (aged 18-89 years) recalled up to ten positive and negative AMs.

Design and performance of a magnetic bottle electron spectrometer for high-energy photoelectron spectroscopy.

We describe the design and performance of a magnetic bottle electron spectrometer (MBES) for high-energy electron spectroscopy. Our design features a 2 m long electron drift tube and electrostatic retardation lens, achieving sub-electronvolt (eV) electron kinetic energy resolution for high energy (several hundred eV) electrons with a close to 4π collection solid angle. A segmented anode electron detector enables the simultaneous collection of photoelectron spectra in high resolution and high collection efficiency modes.

[THE SURGICAL INTELLIGENCE REVOLUTION - APPLYING AI TO IMPROVE SURGICAL QUALITY AND SAFETY].

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine is rising fast. We continually hear about novel AI-based technologies being deployed to aid clinical teams in areas like interpreting medical images, understanding pathology, determining diagnosis, predicting prognosis, and deciding on interventions. The field of surgery, however, has been slower to jump on the AI bandwagon.
