Children, adolescents, adults, and pensioners were requested to collect books for either their own age group or any of the other age groups mentioned, in a 4X4 factorial design. Data analysis revealed main effects for both the age of the potential helper and recipient, as well as an interaction between these two independent variables. However, none of the age groups exhibited a tendency to help their own age group more than the other age groups. The findings' pattern is discussed in detail.

Undergraduate men who held neutral positions on a variety of issues were exposed to peer-group opinions whose semantic wording was varied to present either a positive or negative context. Two replications of the procedure using statements of different contents were conducted (each sample n = 40); a 2 × 2 factorial design was used for both replications where the independent variables were direction of semantic wording (positive or negative) and direction of influence from peer ratings (for agreement or disagreement). Support was found for an interaction of the two independent variables wherein conformity increased as a function of congruity between direction of peer opinions and semantic context of stimulus-wording.

This experiment examined whether visual, perceptual, or cognitive measures predicted the ability to detect vehicle collisions in intersections. Sixty subjects, comprised of three age groups balanced by gender, were presented dynamic intersection approaches in a part-task driving simulator. The subjects were asked to project the forward progress of crossing traffic and to indicate whether any of the crossing vehicles would conflict with their vehicle. Independent variables included visual, perceptual, and cognitive test batteries. Dependent variables included accuracy in collision detection and error type. Results showed that all three batteries predicted accuracy, but that the perceptual battery was the most predictive for each age group.

Latency is an important factor when conducting teleoperated missions. This study investigates the effects of latency on a set of dependent variables: performance (measured by time and number of errors), subjective workload, trust, and usability. These measures were tested in a simulated search-and-rescue mission over two levels of two independent variables. One independent variable was the number of robots – one or two (within-subject), and the other independent variable was latency – simulations with and without latency (between-subject.) The significant effect of the independent variables on the dependent variables were checked using repeated measure two-way ANOVA with a confidence level of 95%. The data determined any significant effects that latency and/or the number of robots had on such factors as errors, dependability, reliability, harmful outcomes, temporal demand, and frustration.

Introduction- Infertility affects both male and female. Little attention has been given to the psychological status of infertility male. Aim of this study is to study the association between depression and male infertility. Methods- 61 infertile men and 61 fertile men were randomly selected from DHH Kendrapada, Bhagabati hospital of Kendrapada and CHC of Derabish, Odisha and further administered HAM-D. Present study adopted case controlled design. Data analysis was done by using R statistical software. Results-Statistically significant association between depression and infertility men was found out [p<o.oo1]. It has also been found out that the lower the age group, higher the depressive symptoms. Conclusion-Depression among infertile men is remarkably high and individuals with low age range are at higher risk of developing depression.

Optical properties of the eye, including the refractive compensation, for example, may change if there are changes in any of the components that make up the eye.  The sensitivity to such changes isquantified via the derivative.  This paper employs the reduced eye and Gaussian optics to illustrate a general method for the analysis of sensitivity in eyes.  The method requires a clear statement of the dependent variable as a function of independent variables.  A symbolism is offered that makes the function unambiguous.  Sensitivities are determined for the fundamental optical properties,the transference and the corneal-plane refractivecompensation of a reduced eye to change in corneal power, curvature and radius of curvature and to change in axial length and index of refraction.  Emsley’s reduced eye is examined in particular.  Its corneal-plane refractive compensation has a sensitivity of  135 −135 D to change in refractive index,  1 −2.7 D/mm to change in length and  135 −1/3 to change in corneal curvature when the other two independent variables are held fixed.  The method has the potential to develop guidelines that are useful clini-cally.

INTRODUCTION: The impact of COVID-19 on the Brazilian pediatric population may be underestimated by underreporting. This study compares the incidence of hospitalizations and deaths due to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and etiologies in children between 2019 and 2020. METHODS: Epidemiological study carried out by consulting InfoGripe. Data referring to epidemiological weeks 1 to 25 of the years 2019 and 2020 were consulted, analyzed using the SPSS 26.0 program. RESULTS: Comparing the years 2019 and 2020, we observed reduction in the incidence rate (per 100,000) of hospitalizations for SARS in the 0-4 year age group from 4.023 to 2.980 (p = 0.05), and an increase in the other age groups, in schoolchildren, 0.353 to 0.618 (p = 0.009) and among adolescents, 0.115 to 0.393 (p = 0.002). There was an increase in deaths from 0.013 to 0.017 (p = 0.05) between 5-9 years, and from 0.009 to 0.029 (p = 0.001) between 10-19 years. In relation to “unknown etiology”, the incidence of hospitalizations increased from 0.294 to 1.454 (p = 0.007) and deaths from 0.03 to 0.28 (p = 0.004). CONCLUSION: The incidence of hospitalizations and deaths due to SARS in 2020 in children aged 5-9 and 10-19 years was higher than in 2019. The 3.4-fold increase in the number of cases, and 9.3-fold increase in deaths from SARS without a defined etiology in 2020 may suggests an important underreporting by COVID -19 in Brazil. Further studies are needed to assess the extent and impact of SARS-CoV-2 in children.

<p>This study investigated the relationship between self-directedness (as measured by the Adult Learner Self-Directedness Scale) and biographical factors such as age, race, and gender of adult learners enrolled at a South African open distance learning (ODL) higher education institution. Correlational and inferential statistical analyses were used. A stratified random sample of 1,102 mainly black and female learners participated in the study. The Adult Learner Self-Directedness Scale (ALSDS) identified four constructs of adult learner self-directedness in an Open Distance Learning Higher Education (ODLHE) milieu, namely the strategic utilisation of officially provided resources, engaged academic activity, success orientation for ODLHE, and academically motivated behaviour. The research indicated that significant differences exist between the gender, race and age groups with regard to self-directedness.</p><p>With regard to gender, males scored significantly higher than females on success orientation for ODLHE and engaged academic activity. With regard to race, Indian participants scored significantly higher than the other race groups on strategic utilisation of officially provided resources and engaged academic activity. The white participants scored significantly higher than the other race groups on success orientation for ODLHE. In terms of age, the age group &gt;50 scored significantly higher than the other age groups on success orientation for ODLHE and self-efficacy. In terms of success orientation, the means for the age groups seem to increase as the ages of participants increase. The age group 18-25 scored significantly higher than the other age groups on engaged academic activity.</p>
