Voice endorsement-managers' approval of employees' voiced suggestions-has largely been regarded as positive, yet little research examines how managers' emotional expressions during endorsement affect employees. Drawing on the Emotions as Social Information (EASI) model, we propose that not all instances of voice endorsements are necessarily positive events for employees. Specifically, we propose that managers' anger while endorsing voice, negatively impact employees' perceptions of psychological safety and their future voice behavior. Across two experimental studies, we find that participants who faced an angry manager endorsing their voice reported both lower psychological safety and future voice behavior than those whose voice was endorsed by a happy or neutral looking manager. Study 2 further found that employees experiencing voice endorsement with anger felt as psychologically unsafe as those whose voice was outright rejected, suggesting that anger-laden endorsements are just as detrimental as voice rejections. Our findings contribute to the literature by challenging the notion that all voice endorsements are inherently positive, emphasizing the role of managers' emotions on managerial reactions to voice.

Pigs are extensively used for biomedical research as animal models given their similarities to humans including size, arterial capacity, and cutaneous structure. While their size also allows for the use of clinically available anesthesia equipment (for example, endotracheal tubes and ventilators), anecdotes exist with respect to stress reactions after exposure to volatile anesthetics. Over 3 mo at our institution, 11 pigs (Sus scrofa domesticus) exposed to isoflurane anesthesia during 2 research protocols were euthanized after exhibiting clinical signs of malignant hyperthermia, including hyperthermia, hypercapnia, skeletal muscle rigidity, dyspnea, tachycardia, and hypotension.

Voice EHR: introducing multimodal audio data for health.

Front Digit Health

January 2025

Center for Interventional Oncology, NIH Clinical Center, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, United States.

Introduction: Artificial intelligence (AI) models trained on audio data may have the potential to rapidly perform clinical tasks, enhancing medical decision-making and potentially improving outcomes through early detection. Existing technologies depend on limited datasets collected with expensive recording equipment in high-income countries, which challenges deployment in resource-constrained, high-volume settings where audio data may have a profound impact on health equity.

Methods: This report introduces a novel protocol for audio data collection and a corresponding application that captures health information through guided questions.

Intensive care clinician attitudes and perceptions towards whānau participation in adult intensive care bedside ward rounds in Aotearoa New Zealand: An online survey.

Aust Crit Care

January 2025

School of Nursing, The University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand; Cardiothoracic and Vascular Intensive Care Unit, Te Whatu Ora Te Toka Tumai Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand. Electronic address:

Background: Clinical practice guidelines endorse family involvement in ward rounds to improve communication and engagement between patients, whānau (family), and healthcare teams, yet the practice has not been universally implemented. Whānau inclusion in adult bedside rounds is often met with hesitation by intensive care unit (ICU) healthcare clinicians, and reasons for this have not been explored in Aotearoa, New Zealand.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess attitudes and perceptions of ICU clinicians towards whānau-family inclusion in adult ICU ward rounds in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Purpose: Children with developmental language disorder are likely to face challenges related to grammar difficulties. Existing empirically supported grammar interventions are typically developed using an expert model without acknowledging the community voices of clinicians who deliver such interventions. This project aims to explore the perspectives of Tasmanian speech-language pathologists on grammar intervention priorities and protocols for developmental language disorder through a participatory action research approach.
