Living with COVID-19: Voices from the grassroots.

J Am Assoc Nurse Pract

Nursing Simmons University, Boston, Massachusetts.

Published: June 2021

COVID-19 has had a significant impact on the lives of nurses. To capture these experiences, the AANP history committee sponsored a writing contest. The stories, essays, and poems were heartfelt and ranged from personal experiences to future implications. One essay entitled "The Five Stages of COVID Grief: One Nurse Practitioner's Coronavirus Story," captured the essence of the time and is applicable to all nurses as we continue our journey and document our legacy. Using the framework of COVID Grief, this article seeks to outline the shared experience and range of emotions represented in the writing contest submissions. Through this lens, the Year of the Nurse and the toll of coronavirus can be framed by the emotions of disbelief, bitterness, guilt, fear and anxiety, and resilience.

Department of English Language and Literature, College of Languages and Translation, Imam Mohammad Ibn Saud Islamic University, Saudi Arabia.

On Wikipedia, editors daily negotiate edits to an entry that summarizes climate change to a global audience. The outcome of their efforts is an encyclopedic entry with a conspicuous lack of temporal clarity that circumvents the question of whether climate change is an immediate crisis or merely a potential future phenomenon. This qualitative discourse analysis of editors' debates around climate change on Wikipedia argues that their hesitancy to "declare crisis" is not a conscious editorial choice as much as an outcome of a friction between the folk philosophy of science Wikipedia is built upon, editors' own sense of urgency, and their anticipations about audience uptake of their writing.

Article Synopsis
  • AI large language models (LLMs) can generate essays similar in quality to human authors, raising questions about authorship in scientific writing.

  • Reviewers found it challenging to identify AI-generated essays, often scoring them higher for composition but showing bias against those perceived as less relevant or "best in topic." Scientific journals may need to educate reviewers about AI's role in writing and establish guidelines for its use.
