A Mediating Effect of Public Service Motivation on Retention Intention Among Child Welfare Students: Task Self-Efficacy.

Purpose: This study investigates the role of Public Service Motivation (PSM) in retaining highly skilled and qualified child welfare graduates within the public child welfare sector.

Materials And Methods: Three entire cohorts of child welfare student social workers over three years ( = 125) in BSW and MSW child welfare programs at seven universities in a Southern state were surveyed to examine the effects of task self-efficacy achieved through the curriculum and public service motivation on retention intention among social work students specializing in child welfare practice at both the baccalaureate and master's levels. Mediation analysis was conducted to estimate the indirect effect of self-efficacy on students' retention intention.

This study examines the moderating effects of distant leader's practice of transformational leadership on the relationship between secondary traumatic stress (STS) and burnout among child welfare workers. Caseworkers and supervisors in a Midwest U.S.

The accuracy of patient specific implant prebented with 3D-printed rapid prototype model for orbital wall reconstruction.

Background: This study evaluated the accuracy of blow out fracture reduction using 3D-printed rapid prototyping (RP) skull modeling.

Patients And Methods: Retrospective review was performed for 82 patients who underwent post-traumatic orbital wall fracture reduction between 2012 and 2014. Patients were divided into two groups according to the use of 3D-printed RP skull model reproduced by mirroring technique, onto which a titanium mesh was anatomically molded.

Relationship between mitochondria and α-synuclein: a study of single substantia nigra neurons.

Objective: To explore the relationship between α-synuclein pathology and mitochondrial respiratory chain protein levels within single substantia nigra neurons.

Design: We examined α-synuclein and mitochondrial protein expression in substantia nigra neurons of 8 patients with dementia with Lewy bodies, 5 patients with Parkinson disease, and 8 control subjects. Protein expression was determined using immunocytochemistry followed by densometric analysis.
