This paper describes the a 2300 + respondent self-administered web-based survey. It includes 100 + multi-purpose items about home-making and stillness in a moving world. We suppose that home-making can reveal coping strategies and resilience practices to make everyday life work - as home is a central location in people's activity-travel patterns. To describe this phenomenon, the concept of is introduced, defining how people arrange, use, and experience their homes to cope with the pathologies of accelerated and liquid modernity (Bauman 2005). While the Data Domotopia is based on a mixed-method combining qualitative and quantitative material, this paper focuses mainly on the description of the questionnaire - which is organized into three interrelated layers: the dwelling, the dwellers, and the neighborhood. Each of these layers unfolds in functional, social, emotional and sensory components. The survey covers most of the contemporary issues related to home-making. This includes the domestic space and gender issues; the socio-spatial resources (mobility, action space, core, and wider social network); lifestyles, ideals, and residential aspiration; time pressures, time use, organization and stress; equipment, rules and arrangements; interpersonal relations, cohabitation and negotiation, dominance and power. Intakes on the is given by two concrete cases about the time-space coverage of the habitual action space, and about inter-personal task allocation. These examples show the potential of the data to study domocentric stillness and resilience to urban pathologies. The data - aggregated to the infra-communal level - is available for research purposes.

: This study aimed to explore self-care understanding and behaviours among aged-care workers in Australia. It was conducted as part of a project to co-produce a self-care resource for the Australian aged-care workforce. : Semi-structured interviews with eleven aged-care staff and a focus group with four staff at an aged-care facility were undertaken to understand how staff understand and practice self-care and how death and dying affect workers.

Critical voices within social psychology have, for some time, emphasized that context matters for understanding psychological phenomena and processes. This special issue examines what a social psychology of context, and in context, can contribute to understanding contemporary geopolitics. We argue that, in examining the interplay between social psychology and contemporary geopolitics, we can understand how geopolitical contexts shape psychological processes and how psychology, in turn, informs our understanding of geopolitical phenomena.

Aim: To evaluate the impact of a participatory, action-oriented implementation study, guided by the integrated Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services framework, for optimising pain care processes in a tertiary paediatric emergency department.
Design: Hybrid type 3 implementation effectiveness.
Methods: A collaborative appraisal of the context and culture of pain care informed two interdependent action cycles: Enabling nurse-initiated analgesia and involving families in pain care.

Vascular endothelial dysfunction is an important pathogenic factor in hypertension, in which angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) plays an important role. Peptides that bind to ACE may attenuate vascular endothelial dysfunction by altering the structure of ACE. This study demonstrated that ITAPHW and IRPNGL were resistant to simulated gastrointestinal fluid and were transported across the Caco-2 monolayer via the intercellular space, with ITAPHW showing a high apparent permeability coefficient of (1.

A crucial component of this generalization behavior is our ability to compose/decompose a whole into reusable parts, an attribute known as compositionality. One of the fundamental questions in robotics concerns this characteristic: How can linguistic compositionality be developed concomitantly with sensorimotor skills through associative learning, particularly when individuals only learn partial linguistic compositions and their corresponding sensorimotor patterns? To address this question, we propose a brain-inspired neural network model that integrates vision, proprioception, and language into a framework of predictive coding and active inference on the basis of the free-energy principle.
