Background And Purpose: Universal design (UD) teaching approaches provide access to learning environments for diverse postsecondary students; however, UD practices in healthcare education have rarely been examined. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the construct validity and reliability of the revised Universal Design in Healthcare Education (UDinHE) instrument.

Methods: The exploratory structural equation model (ESEM).

Results: The ESEM revealed an acceptable model with good internal consistency for the subscales, except trialability (α = .59). All scales had a Cronbach's alpha > .70, except social system support. In the final CFA without trialabiity, the model showed good adjustment to the data Χ²(334, n = 222) = 651.188, comparative fit index (CFI) = 0.91, Tucker-Lewis index (TLI) = 0.90, root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) = 0.90, 95% confidence interval [CI] [0.06, 0.07]).

Conclusion: This instrument performs similarly with a broader population of healthcare educators as with nurse educators; however, future instrument refinement is warranted.

An innovative complex-valued encoding black-winged kite algorithm for global optimization.

Sci Rep

January 2025

School of Electrical and Photoelectronic Engineering, West Anhui University, Lu'an, 237012, China.

The black-winged kite algorithm (BKA) constructed on the black-winged kites' migratory and predatory instincts is a revolutionary swarm intelligence method that integrates the Leader tactic with the Cauchy variation procedure to retrieve the expansive appropriate convergence solution. The essential BKA exhibits marginalized resolution efficiency, inferior assessment precision, and stagnant sensitive anticipation. To foster aggregate discovery intensity and advance widespread computational efficacy, an innovative complex-valued encoding BKA (CBKA) is presented to resolve the global optimization.

Achieving high flexibility, breathability, and sensitivity in inorganic semiconductor gas sensors remains a substantial challenge, especially for wearable applications in high-humidity environments. This study develops a hyper-flexible, thermally stable, and highly breathable full-inorganic, self-supporting InGaO-AlO/AlO nanofiber membrane sensor, fabricated using a dual-spinneret electrospinning method with an interlocking design. This innovative sensor has a bilayer structure with an amorphous AlO nanofiber substrate layer supporting an active layer of high-aspect-ratio interwoven InGaO and AlO nanofibers, providing outstanding flexibility, elevated breathability, and strong thermal stability.
