This study examined the effects of two reading styles (i.e., reading with a narrator and reading independently), receptive vocabulary and literacy on children's eye movement patterns. The sample included 46 Chinese children (aged 4-6 years) who were randomly assigned to two reading styles and read the same picture book on a screen. The results indicated that the higher the children's receptive vocabulary was, the sooner they fixated on the text. Overall, the children's fixation probability (i.e., the time spent viewing the text zones as a proportion of full-page viewing time during each period) decreased with time when reading independently but increased with time when reading with a narrator. For children in senior kindergarten, reading with a narrator is thought to help establish and consolidate the links between speech and text and thus promote reading acquisition.

- The study aimed to investigate if preoperative opioid education can lower opioid consumption after spine surgery and to identify the most effective educational methods.
- Patients received various forms of education, including a 2-minute video, handouts, a small class, or one-on-one sessions, while the control group received standard education.
- Results showed that at 1 and 3 months post-surgery, those educated via video, class, and one-on-one sessions had reduced opioid use, with the video and class methods remaining effective even at 6 months post-op.

Rationale: From education to healthcare and management processes, it is important to address the experience in health within its own complexity, context, and uniqueness. At this point, qualitative studies come to the fore and this increases the need for practical guides and models for qualitative studies. Qualitative studies have a paradigm that is different from quantitative research and its paradigm ontologically, epistemologically, and methodologically.
