This pilot study analyzed the actual language used in two writing samples by university students (8 men, 28 women) about a tragic public incident, the September 11, 2001, terrorist attack. To analyze samples a computer-based text-analysis program with a wide range of psychological dimensions and linguistic variables was used. More words and more past tense verbs were used right after the incident. Words related to religion, family, and home increased dramatically right after the incident.

Article Synopsis
- COVID-19 triage protocols are developed to manage resource shortages in ICUs and have sparked ethical debates, particularly regarding potential biases against certain groups based on age, frailty, or perceived social value.
- The online Democratic Deliberation conducted in May and June 2022 in Quebec and Ontario aimed to gather public opinions on acceptable considerations and values that should guide these protocols.
- Analysis revealed three main themes: the need for public acceptance of the protocols, essential considerations to include in triage decisions, and conditions that could enhance acceptance, with participants generally favoring prioritization based on survival prognosis and advocating for structured decision-making to reduce subjectivity.
