Summary Although sport can promote moral values and prosocial behavior in youth, numerous research shows that sports engagement alone does not guarantee that outcome. Instead of striving for fair-play and sport excellence which not exclude justness, solidarity and moral integrity, contemporary sport frequently follows the Lombardian ethic, where „winning isn’t everything, it’s the only thing”. Moral pause or bracketed morality, as described in sport, refers to the phenomenon of tolerance and acceptance of aggressive behavior or cheating, that will be morally condemned outside sports arenas. Accordingly, lower levels of moral reasoning and behavior have been identified in athletes and non-athletes in the sports-related situation in comparison to other life situations; in athletes when compared to non-athletes, in more experienced athletes, high-level athletes, team-sport athletes, and male athletes. Moral reasoning and behavior of athletes are influenced by contextual and personal factors, with coaches having a particularly important role to play. The positive influence of sport on the moral development of athletes might be related to pre-service and in-service education of coaches how to develop adequate moral atmosphere, and how to plan for moral decision-making as an integral part of everyday practice.

With the ubiquity of web tracking, information on how people navigate the internet is abundantly collected yet, due to its proprietary nature, rarely distributed. As a result, our understanding of user browsing primarily derives from small-scale studies conducted more than a decade ago. To provide an broader updated perspective, we analyze data from 257 participants who consented to have their home computer and browsing behavior monitored through the Security Behavior Observatory. Compared to previous work, we find a substantial increase in tabbed browsing and demonstrate the need to include tab information for accurate web measurements. Our results confirm that user browsing is highly centralized, with 50% of internet use spent on 1% of visited websites. However, we also find that users spend a disproportionate amount of time on low-visited websites, areas with a greater likelihood of containing risky content. We then identify the primary gateways to these sites and discuss implications for future research.

Background: The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) classification is a biopsychosocial frame of reference that contributes to a holistic understanding of the functioning of a client and the factors involved. Personal factors (PFs) are not currently classified in the ICF due to large societal and cultural diversity and lack of clarity in the scope of such factors.Aims: To ascertain which factors in the ICF classification have been defined as PFs in different studies and what conclusions have been drawn on their role in the ICF classification.Methods: The study was a scoping review. A systematic search for articles published in 2010–2020 was performed on the Cinahl, Pubmed, ScienceDirect, and Sport Discus databases. The PFs specified in the articles were classified according to the seven categories proposed by Geyh et al. socio-demographic factors; position in the immediate social and physical context; personal history and biography; feelings; thoughts and beliefs; motives; and general patterns of experience and behavior.Results: The search yielded 1,988 studies, of which 226 met the inclusion criteria. The studies had addressed a wide variety of PFs that were linked to all seven categories defined by Geyh et al. Some studies had also defined PFs that were linkable to other components of the ICF or that did not describe functioning. Approximately 22% (51) of the studies discussed the role of PFs in rehabilitation.Conclusions: The range of PFs in the ICF classification addressed in the reviewed studies is wide. PFs play an important role in rehabilitation. However, according to the reviewed studies, a more precise coding of PFs is not yet warranted.

Food waste has become a global issue that has received increased attention. Food waste at the household level is a major source of food loss in developed countries. While culture is an important factor shaping people’s behavior, comparison of food waste behaviors across countries and regions are still limited. This study uses primary data covering the US, Canada, the UK, and France to understand and compare consumers’ food waste behaviors. While we found some common drivers for food waste behavior appliable to all countries, such as age, eating away from home, and using expiration dates, we confirmed that consumers behave significantly different across countries. For example, personal factors such as employment status, household size, and environmental concerns are only found significant in certain countries. Similarly, while convenience-driven consumers tend to waste more across countries, only European consumers who are price and advertising conscious tend to increase their food waste frequency. Moreover, many well-known food waste prevention actions, such as making a shopping list, preserving and freezing food, and being willing to consume leftovers, only appear to work in certain countries.

ICF-luokitus on biopsykososiaalinen viitekehys, joka mahdollistaa asiakkaan toimintakyvyn ja siihen nivoutuvien tekijöiden kokonaisvaltaisen ymmärtämisen. ICF-luokituksen Yksilötekijät -osa-alueen tarkempi kuvaus on kesken, mikä vaikeuttaa ICF-luokituksen täysipainoista hyödyntämistä. Tämän kartoittavan kirjallisuuskatsauksen tavoitteena oli kuvata, mitä teemoja tutkimuksissa oli tunnistettu ICF-luokituksen mukaisiksi yksilötekijöiksi ja miten yksilötekijöiden luokittelun ja huomioisen tarvetta käytännön työssä perusteltiin. Systemaattinen tiedonhaku tehtiin Cinahl, Pubmed, Science Direct ja Sport Discus sekä Finna, Helda, Helka, Julkari ja Medic -tietokannoista rajautuen vuosina 2010–2020 julkaistuihin artikkeleihin. Teoriaohjaavan aineiston analyysimenetelmällä artikkeleista eritellyt yksilötekijät luokiteltiin Geyh ym. (2019) mukaan seitsemään luokkaan: 1. Sosio-demografiset tekijät, 2. Asema välittömässä sosiaalisessa ja fyysisessä kontekstissa, 3. Henkilökohtaisen elämän historia, 4. Henkilökohtainen kokemus tunteista, 5. Henkilökohtainen kokemus omista ajatuksista ja uskomuksista, 6. Motiivit ja 7. Toistuvat kokemukselliset ja käyttäytymisen mallit. Mukaanottokriteerit täyttävissä 226 artikkelissa oli käsitelty runsaasti erilaisia yksilötekijöitä. Ne linkittyivät kaikkiin Geyh ym. (2019) luokkiin ja osa jäi luokituksen ulkopuolelle. Lisäksi osassa tutkimuksissa oli määritelty yksilötekijöiksi tekijöitä, jotka olivat linkitettävissä jollekin toiselle ICF-osa-alueelle tai jotka eivät kuvanneet toimintakykyä. Päätelmiä yksilötekijöiden roolista kuntoutuksessa oli tehty 50 (22 %) tutkimuksista. ICF:n yksilötekijöiden kirjo tutkimuksissa oli laaja, ja niiden huomioiminen osana toimintakykytietoa laajentaa ymmärrystä asiakkaan tilanteesta ja kuntoutumiseen vaikuttavista tekijöistä. Tämän tutkimuksen perusteella ei kuitenkaan ole mahdollista suositella, tulisiko ja miten yksilötekijöitä luokitella tarkemmin. Abstract The ICF personal factors are part of a comprehensive assessment of functioning - a scoping review of ICF personal factors in the rehabilitation studies The ICF classification is a biopsychosocial frame of reference that contributes to a holistic understanding of the client’s functioning and the factors involved. A more detailed description of the ICF personal factors is pending, which makes it difficult to apply the ICF classification in full. The aim of this scoping review was to describe which themes were identified in the studies as personal factors according to the ICF classification and what conclusions have been drawn about their further coding in the ICF classification. A systematic search was performed on the Cinahl, Pubmed, Science Direct and Sport Discus as well as Finnish databases (Finna, Helda, Helka, Julkari and Medic), based on articles published in 2010–2020. According to Geyh et al. (2019), the personal factors specified in the articles by, were classified into seven categories: socio-demographical factors, position in the immediate social and physical context, personal history and biography, feelings, thoughts and beliefs, motives, and general patterns of experience and behavior. The search yielded 226 studies that met the inclusion criteria. The articles had addressed a wide variety of personal factors that linked to all seven categories defined by Geyh et al. (2019). In addition, some studies had defined as personal factors that were linkable to other components of the ICF or that did not describe functioning. About 50 (22 %) of the studies had made conclusions on the role of personal factors in rehabilitation. The range of personal factors in the ICF classification addressed in the studies is wide and taking them into account as part of functioning information expands the understanding of the client's situation and the factors influencing rehabilitation However, based on this study, it is not possible to recommend a more precise coding of personal factors. Keywords: ICF, personal factors, rehabilitation, scoping review

Indonesia is a country where most of the people work as fishermen because most of its territory is water. Fishermen are a profession that has a high risk of occupational disease in the form of hearing loss which causes losses in the form of permanent disabilities, decreased financial income and quality of life, as well as the mental health of fishermen. The purpose of this study was to identify the risk factors that cause occupational hearing loss experienced by fishermen. This research is a literature review conducted using the Google Scholar database with the keywords "Hearing Loss", "Occupational Diseases", "Fishermen", and "Indonesia". The results of this literature review show that diving and non-diver fishermen have a risk of hearing loss due to personal factors such as age, years of service, knowledge, attitudes, and behavior, while occupational factors that influence are noise intensity, length of exposure to availability of ear protection equipment, length of time, and depth of diving activity. Keywords: hearing loss, occupational diseases, fishermen

Data from a longitudinal study of 13 000 British children were used to assess the sequelae of mild head injury 1 to 5 years after injury. One hundred fourteen children with parental reports of mild head injury treated with ambulatory care or admission to hospital for one night were compared with 601 children with limb fractures, 605 with lacerations, 136 with burns, and 1726 children without injury. Scores at age 10 were adjusted for intelligence, aggressive and hyperactive behavior at age 5, sex, socioeconomic status, and six other social factors. Children with head injuries were statistically indistinguishable from uninjured children on all outcomes except teacher's report of hyperactivity. After control of hyperactivity at age 5 and the social and personal factors, the head-injured children's mean hyperactivity score was four tenths of a standard deviation above that of the uninjured children. Children with lacerations and burns scored as badly or worse on measures of intelligence, mathematics, reading, and aggression as the children with head injuries. The small magnitude of the hyperactivity association coupled with the overall negative results suggests that mild head injury in school-aged children does not have an adverse effect on global measures of cognition, achievement, and behavior 1 to 5 years after injury.
