What information about a person's personality do people want to know? Prior research has focused on behavioral , but personality is also characterized in terms of . Four studies ( = 1,502) assessed participants' interest in information about seven fundamental social motives (self-protection, disease avoidance, affiliation, status, mate seeking, mate retention, kin care) across 12 experimental conditions that presented details about the person or situation. In the absence of details about specific situations, participants most highly prioritized learning about kin care and mate retention motives. There was some variability across conditions, but the kin care motive was consistently highly prioritized. Additional results from Studies 1 to 4 and Study 5 ( = 174) showed the most highly prioritized motives were perceived to be stable across time and to be especially diagnostic of a person's trustworthiness, warmth, competence, and dependability. Findings are discussed in relation to research on fundamental social motives and pragmatic perspectives on person perception.

Background: Endotracheal suction catheters are often used multiple times during endotracheal suctioning procedures in resource-limited intensive care units (ICU). The impact of this practice on mechanically ventilated patients' outcomes remains unclear.
Aim: The aim of this feasibility randomized controlled trial (fRCT) is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of single-use versus multiple-use endotracheal suction catheters flushed with chlorhexidine in mechanically ventilated ICU patients.

Purpose: For next of kin (NK) to people with epilepsy (PWE) insufficient knowledge about the disease might have a negative impact on disease management, utilization of the health care system and conveyance of attitudes in the society. The aim of this study was to investigate to which degree Norwegian NK to PWE called for and obtained relevant information about different epilepsy-related issues.
Methods: We invited NK visiting the homepage of the Norwegian Epilepsy Association to complete an online questionnaire regarding information about epilepsy.

Based on 28 months of ethnographic research in Deanuleahki-a river valley in Sápmi, the transborder Indigenous Sámi homeland-this article traces my interlocutors' striving to reclaim and repair ecological and kin relations through the everyday praxis of care. I trace this striving through the unmaking and remaking of local relations of care amidst encroachment by post-Second World War Nordic welfare states and regimes of environmental stewardship. I propose a dual conceptualization of ecosocial injury and resurgent care to account for, on the one hand, care's alienation from its social and ecological contexts; and, on the other, the intimate everyday labor of revivifying relations of kinship and belonging, and conditions of material livability, within local ecologies.
