This study was carried out to analyze the validity and reliability of the Turkish adaptation of the "Intensive Care Nurses" Attitude Scale towards Brain Death and Organ Transplantation". The research was carried out as a methodological study and 256 nurses were included in the study. Language, content validity, explanatory and confirmatory factor analyzes were used to analyze data. Twenty-one point 5% of nurses stated that they had an organ donation card. It was determined that the Cronbach alpha coefficient of scale was .85, and item-total score correlations were between .143 and .700. It was established that the scale showed three-factor structure and the first factor was named as "Approving Organ Donation", the second factor as "Discomfort" and the third factor as "Improving The Quality of Life". The Turkish version of the scale was found to be an valid and reliable measurement tool.

Automated, rapid electrocatalyst discovery techniques that comprehensively address the exploration of chemical spaces, characterization of catalyst robustness, reproducibility, and translation of results to (flow) electrolysis operation are needed. Responding to the growing interest in biomass valorization, we studied the glycerol electro-oxidation reaction (GEOR) on gold in alkaline media as a model reaction to demonstrate the efficacy of such methodology introduced here. Our platform combines individually addressable electrode arrays with HardPotato, a Python application programming interface for potentiostat control, to automate electrochemical experiments and data analysis operations.

Objective: The Self-Discrepancies Scale (S-DS) is a multiple-subscore instrument designed to assess discrepancies between mental representations of the self: the actual self on one hand, and the ideal and socially prescribed selves on the other. Its idiographic subscores rely on the endorsement of self-descriptive traits, while its abstract subscores form an overall judgement of felt self-discrepancies. The objectives of the present study were to (i) evaluate the S-DS in a new non-clinical population, (ii) expand the body of data on the S-DS's convergent validity, (iii) study the idiographic data for the S-DS, and (iv) establish a nomothetic list of traits with a better choice of unwanted traits.

Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is a highly prevalent condition characterized by lateral hip and thigh pain. The Victorian Institute of Sport Assessment (VISA) questionnaire specifically tailored for GTPS (VISA-G) questionnaire was developed for the purpose of assessing and quantifying the severity of symptoms related to gluteal tendinopathy or GTPS. It is commonly used in research and clinical settings to evaluate the impact of GTPS on patient function and quality of life.
