This study aimed to examine the goal consciousness scale as lifespan developmental index in young adult workers, and the relationship between work values and the goal consciousness. Survey data from 240 young adult workers were used, two subscales in work values scale and five subscales in goal consciousness scale were confirmed by factor analyses. Analysis of variance (ANOVAs) showed that goal-confidence and time-management were high with high expert-orientation or low work-as-devise-orientation. Thirst for goal was low with low expert-orientation and low work-as-devise-orientation. Anxiety about the future was high with high work-as-devise-orientation in the case of males who have high expert-orientation. Planning was high with low work-as-devise-orientation in the case of male. These results indicated that expert-orientation promotes goal-consciousness, work-as-devise-orientation disturbs it, especially, expert-as-devise-orientation raises anxiety for the future.

Body awareness (BA) is a complex multi-dimensional construct that refers to the subject's ability to consciously perceive and integrate sensory and proprioceptive information related to the position, movement, and balance of one's own body and body parts. Since it involves multiple brain regions and include different functional networks, it is very often affected by cerebrovascular damage such as stroke. Deficits in the ability to monitor our actions and predict their consequences or recognize our body parts and distinguish them from those of others may emerge after stroke.

Purpose: Medication often falls short in controlling tremors in Parkinson's disease. While physical activities suggest potential benefits, current exercise regimes have limitations. This paper explores the concept of deliberate shaking as an intervention to aid exercise uptake and potentially leverage synergies between medication and physical activity.

Purpose Of Review: To increase knowledge of the natural history of recovery and long-term outcome following severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI).

Recent Findings: Recovery of consciousness and complex behaviors that presage subsequent functional recovery frequently occurs well beyond the first 7 days after injury, which is typically the time period widely used in the ICU for prognostic decision-making and establishing goals of care for. Similarly, recovery of functional independence occurs between 1 and 10 years postinjury in a substantial proportion of patients who do not recover command-following during the acute hospitalization.
