  • Mental health (MH) apps can be used as adjunctive tools in traditional face-to-face therapy to help implement components of evidence-based treatments. However, practitioners interested in using MH apps face a variety of challenges, including knowing which apps would be appropriate to use. Although some resources are available to help practitioners identify apps, granular analyses of how faithfully specific clinical skills are represented in apps are lacking. This study aimed to conduct a review and analysis of MH apps containing a core component of cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) – cognitive restructuring (CR). A keyword search for apps providing CR functionality on the Apple App and Android Google Play stores yielded 246 apps after removal of duplicates, which was further reduced to 15 apps following verification of a CR component and application of other inclusionary/exclusionary criteria. Apps were coded based on their inclusion of core elements of CR, and general app features including app content, interoperability/data sharing, professional involvement, ethics, and data safeguards. They were also rated on user experience as assessed by the Mobile App Rating Scale (MARS). Whereas a majority of the CR apps include most core CR elements, they vary considerably with respect to more granular sub-elements of CR (e.g. rating the intensity of emotions), other general app features, and user experience (average MARS = 3.53, range from 2.30 to 4.58). Specific apps that fared best with respect to CR fidelity and user experience dimensions are highlighted, and implications of findings for clinicians, researchers and app developers are discussed.

    Key learning aims

    1. (1) To identify no-cost mobile health apps that practitioners can adopt to facilitate cognitive restructuring.

    2. (2) To review how well the core elements of cognitive restructuring are represented in these apps.

    3. (3) To characterize these apps with respect to their user experience and additional features.

    4. (4) To provide examples of high-quality apps that represent cognitive restructuring with fidelity and facilitate its clinical implementation.

  • The spectrum of adverse mental health trajectories caused by sexual abuse, broadly defined as exposure to rape and unwanted physical sexual contact, is well-known. Few studies have systematically appraised the epidemiology and impact of sexual abuse among boys and men. New meta-analytic insights (k = 44; n = 45 172) reported by Zarchev and colleagues challenge assumptions that men experiencing mental ill health rarely report sexual abuse exposure. Adult-onset sexual abuse rates of 1–7% are observed in the general population, but for men experiencing mental ill health, adult lifetime prevalence was 14.1% (95% CI 7.3–22.4%), with past-year exposure 5.3% (95% CI 1.6–12.8%). We note that these rates are certainly underestimates, as childhood sexual abuse exposures were excluded. Boys and men with a sexual abuse history experience substantial disclosure and treatment barriers. We draw attention to population health gains that could be achieved via implementation of gender-sensitive assessment and intervention approaches for this at-risk population.

  • Introduction:

    The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) created major disruptions at academic centers and healthcare systems globally. Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) fund hubs supported by the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences provideinfrastructure and leadership for clinical and translational research at manysuch institutions.

    Methods:

    We surveyed CTSA hubs and received responses from 94% of them regarding the impact of the pandemic and the processes employed for the protection of research personnel and participants with respect to the conduct of research, specifically for studies unrelated to COVID-19.

    Results:

    In this report, we describe the results of the survey findings in the context of the current understanding of disease transmission and mitigation techniques.

    Conclusions:

    We reflect on common practices and provide recommendations regarding lessons learned that will be relevant to future pandemics, particularly with regards to staging the cessation and resumption of research activities with an aim to keep the workforce, research participants, and our communities safe in future pandemics.

  • The calibration hardware system of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) is designed to measure two quantities: a telescope’s instrumental response and atmospheric transmission, both as a function of wavelength. First of all, a “collimated beam projector” is designed to measure the instrumental response function by projecting monochromatic light through a mask and a collimating optic onto the telescope. During the measurement, the light level is monitored with a NIST-traceable photodiode. This method does not suffer from stray light effects or the reflections (known as ghosting) present when using a flat-field screen illumination, which has a systematic source of uncertainty from uncontrolled reflections. It allows for an independent measurement of the throughput of the telescope’s optical train as well as each filter’s transmission as a function of position on the primary mirror. Second, CALSPEC stars can be used as calibrated light sources to illuminate the atmosphere and measure its transmission. To measure the atmosphere’s transfer function, we use the telescope’s imager with a Ronchi grating in place of a filter to configure it as a low resolution slitless spectrograph. In this paper, we describe this calibration strategy, focusing on results from a prototype system at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO) 0.9 meter telescope. We compare the instrumental throughput measurements to nominal values measured using a laboratory spectrophotometer, and we describe measurements of the atmosphere made via CALSPEC standard stars during the same run.

  • The Data Librarian's Handbook covers a large amount of interesting terrain in thoughtful and accessible ways. It is both essential for any information professional interested in data and their management, and is also indicative of the increasing – and increasingly varied – role that data and data management play in libraries and more broadly across academia.

  • Background

    Mental disorders in children and adolescents have an impact on educational attainment.

    Aims

    To examine the temporal association between attainment in education and subsequent diagnosis of depression or self-harm in the teenage years.

    Method

    General practitioner, hospital and education records of young people in Wales between 1999 and 2014 were linked and analysed using Cox regression.

    Results

    Linked records were available for 652 903 young people and of these 33 498 (5.1%) developed depression and 15 946 (2.4%) self-harmed after the age of 12 but before the age of 20. Young people who developed depression over the study period were more likely to have achieved key stage 1 (age 7 years) but not key stage 2 (age 11) (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.79, 95% CI 0.74–0.84) milestones, indicating that they were declining in academic attainment during primary school. Conversely, those who self-harmed were achieving as well as those who did not self-harm in primary school, but showed a severe decline in their attainment during secondary school (HR = 0.72, 95% CI 0.68–0.78).

    Conclusions

    Long-term declining educational attainment in primary and secondary school was associated with development of depression in the teenage years. Self-harm was associated with declining educational attainment during secondary school only. Incorporating information on academic decline with other known risk factors for depression/self-harm (for example stressful life events, parental mental health problems) may improve risk profiling methods.

  • DEWEY ON CIVIL RIGHTS, TESTING, INTEREST, AND DISCIPLINE: DEMOCRACY AND EDUCATION IN PERSPECTIVE

  • In this essay we consider how the principles evident in Dewey's Democracy and Education would have been evident in response to the civil rights movement that took shape shortly after his death, and to the major educational reform movements of today. While acknowledging that Dewey's views on race and human development were inevitably influenced by his social and intellectual context, we maintain that he was fundamentally opposed to racist ideology and related popular beliefs, and that his deep commitment to democracy as a social process would have made him a staunch supporter of the civil rights movement and associated demands for racial equality. We likewise argue that Dewey would have had deep misgivings about the standards-driven assessment regimes that underlie current national reform efforts. In the end we suggest that Democracy and Education still has much to offer students of education today, and can serve as a helpful guide to those who would seek to change educational practice for the better.

  • Summary

    This is not the first book written about data librarianship, and hopefully it will not be the last, but it is one of very few, all written within the past few years, that reflects the growing interest in research data support. Academic data librarians help staff and students with all aspects of this peculiar class of digital information – its use, preservation and curation, and how to support researchers’ production and consumption of it in ever greater volumes, to create new knowledge.

    Our aim is to offer an insider's view of data librarianship as it is today, with plenty of practical examples and advice. At times we try to link this to wider academic research agendas and scholarly communication trends past, present and future, while grounding these thoughts back in the everyday work of data librarians and other information professionals.

    We would like to tell you a little bit about ourselves as the authors, but first a word about you. We have two primary groups of readers in mind for this book: library and iSchool students and their teachers, and working professionals (especially librarians) learning to deal with data. We would be honoured to have this book used as an educational resource in library and information graduate programmes, because we believe the future of data librarianship (regardless of its origins, examined in Chapter 1) lies with academic libraries, and for that to become a stronger reality it needs to be studied as a professional and academic subject. To aid the use of this book as a text for study we have provided ‘key take-away points’ and ‘reflective questions’ at the end of each chapter. These can be used by teachers for individual or group assignments, or by individuals to self-assess and reinforce what they may have learned from reading each chapter.

    Equally important, we empathetically address the librarian, academic, or other working expert who feels their working life is pulling them towards data support or that area of academic activity known as research data management (RDM).

  • Summary

    Challenging assumptions about data

    What is meant by confidential or sensitive data? In Chapter 2 we outlined some of the formats of common types of research data. The field is of course wide and may include datasets that are based on numbers, text or audiovisual material. Most of the time researchers will be interested in how they can manipulate these in order to address the goals of their investigations. Some researchers are interested less in the format than in what they consider to be fundamental problems of confidentiality or data sensitivity. They have concerns about managing the data securely while they are working with it – and are unsure what they are supposed to do. Others have concerns about the appropriateness of allowing preservation or re-use of the same material. Understanding what a researcher actually means when they state their data are confidential therefore becomes significant. This is a growing area of discussion and is demonstrated by the huge interest shown by researchers in training and awareness raising courses on this topic. Typical concerns include whether the data:

  • 1 were collected just for a specific research project

  • 2 are still needed for future analysis

  • 3 may only be properly understood by the original researchers

  • 4 should be destroyed once they have been used or analysed

  • 5 could be exploited for non-academic purposes

  • 6 cover a subject area that is not for public consumption such as studies of terrorists, family history or locations of endangered species

  • 7 contain general information that could allow participants to be Identified

  • 8 include names and addresses or similar personal information

  • 9 include particular details that could be harmful to participants if made Public

  • 10 are to be treated as confidential so an unintended release in itself would be damaging.

    • Such a wide range of concerns illustrates that no data type is inherently more confidential than another. It is possible to encounter variations on some or all of these arguments from researchers working with statistical data, video interviews or samples of genetic material. However it is commonplace to find researchers working under the assumption that all their data are confidential and present unique problems. The role of the data librarian is to help shift that perception.
