Article Abstract
Unlabelled: Students more than ever learn from online sources, such as digital texts or videos. Little research has compared processes and outcomes across these two mediums. Using a between-participants experimental design, this study investigated whether medium (texts vs. videos) and context (less authoritative vs. more authoritative), independently and in concert, affected students' engagement, integrated understanding, and calibration. The two mediums presented identical information on the topic of social media, which was distributed across two complementary texts in the text condition and across two complementary videos in the video condition. In the less authoritative context, the two information sources (texts or videos) were posted by a friend on Facebook; in the more authoritative context, the same information sources (texts or videos) were posted by a professor on Moodle. Results showed a main effect of medium on behavioral engagement in terms of processing time, as students used longer time watching the two videos than reading the two digital texts. No other main medium or context effects were statistically significant; nor were there any interaction effects of medium with context on any of the outcome variables. The findings are discussed in light of the alternative hypotheses that guided the study and the directions it suggests for future research.

Communication about incurable illness and remaining life between spouses and patients with incurable illness receiving specialized home care: effects of a family caregiver-targeted web-based psycho-educational intervention.
BMC Palliat Care

The Department of Health Care Science, Marie Cederschiöld University, Stockholm, Sweden.
Background: Web-based interventions targeted at family caregivers has become a quickly expanding research field, none the least since a growing number of patients with incurable illness are being cared for at home. Spouses, who are also family caregivers, constitute an especially vulnerable group in need of support when they are cohabitating with the ill patient and research shows that communication regarding the illness is important, yet challenging. This study therefore explored effects of a family caregiver-targeted web-based psycho-educational intervention on communication about incurable illness and remaining life between spouses and patients receiving specialized home care.

Recent years have seen formidable advances in artificial intelligence. Developments include a large number of specialised systems either existing or planned for use in scientific research, data analysis, translation, text production and design with grammar checking and stylistic revision, plagiarism detection, and scientific review in addition to general-purpose AI systems for searching the internet and generative AI systems for texts, images, videos, and musical compositions. These systems promise more ease and simplicity in many aspects of work.

IWK Health, Faculty of Medicine, Dalhousie University, Canada. Electronic address:
Health governance during pregnancy is grounded in cultural norms about good mothering, which centre around self-sacrifice and perceived conflicts between maternal and fetal bodies. Nonetheless, many health choices in pregnancy should have mutual benefits and risks for maternal and fetal bodies, including vaccination during pregnancy. This manuscript presents results from a discourse analysis of 440 texts about vaccines that are recommended in pregnancy in Canada, including inactivated influenza, tetanus-diphtheria-acellular-pertussis, and COVID-19 vaccines.

Background: Eye tracking assessments in the laboratory have previously highlighted clear differences in eye movements between Parkinson's disease (PD) and healthy aging. However, laboratory-based eye movement tasks are artificial and limit the ecological validity of observed results. Eye movement tasks utilizing more naturalistic scenarios may provide more accurate insight into cognitive function but research in this area is limited.

Article Synopsis
- The study aims to improve health literacy for cleft lip and palate patients by using OpenAI's ChatGPT-4 to make patient educational materials (PEMs) easier to read.
- PEMs were evaluated for interactive content, with readability assessed before and after AI modifications, resulting in significant improvements from a 9th-grade to a 6th-grade reading level.
- Despite enhancements in readability, only 27% of the websites included interactive educational tools, highlighting a gap that needs to be addressed to improve patient education and engagement.
