Dining is the process of consuming food, regardless of the setting; however, human behaviors appear to vary depending on the setting. A model of dining is considered when viewed through the lens of dining at home, in the local community, and while traveling far away from home. The concepts introduced by Roberts and Shea (2017) are advanced in this conceptual article with the goal toward generating a model of dining behaviors.

Dining, the activity of eating food, is a basic human function. A theory of dining is offered focused on dining at home, in the local community, and while traveling far away from home. Dining is the process of consuming food, regardless of geography, culture, or era; however, human behaviors do vary depending on the setting. A historical overview of restaurants and dining in different areas of the world is presented to provide a background for the theory. Use of the theory for managers is suggested.

Abstract Objectives There is a need for programs that can teach children valuable skills such as gardening along with nutrition education in order to sustain good health throughout the life cycle. The Plot to Plate Community Initiative utilized practical ways for children between the ages of 5–12 years old to learn about nutrition, gardening, and other related topics. Prior to the hands-on lesson plans an initial knowledge base was investigated via pre surveys in order to later provide post surveys for evaluating the effectiveness of the program. This analysis of the program evaluation focuses on the pre-surveys. Methods Fifty-five surveys were initially collected from children participants between the ages of 5–12 at two different local community centers within the same county during the Spring and Summer months in after school and summer programs. They consisted of 10 questions focusing on basic nutrition/hydration, health and the body, gardening, food choices and food safety and hand washing which were to be covered in subsequent hands on nutrition and gardening experiences. Results Initial reports indicate that, 84% of participants have different fruits and vegetables to pick from at home, 93% wash their hands before making or eating food, 69% thought that green vegetables were the best vegetables for you, and 93% concluded that staying hydrated keeps you healthy. Alternatively, t-tests indicated participants regularly had fruits and vegetables at home and stated green vegetables were the best but didn't regularly wash food or hands (P = 0.0497, P < 0.001). Participants that knew the purpose of the digestive system were able to cite watermelon having the most water in it out of 3 choices(P = 0.266) but didn't relate that plants were started with a seed in the ground (P = 0.048). Conclusions Initial data signifies that participants started the program with a wide range of solid knowledge pertaining to the different topics. This preliminary data shows a need to continue bringing together the importance of all the topics reviewed and their interplay and importance to the participants in living a healthy lifestyle.

Background: This study addressed differences between parent–child dyads with excessive body mass (overweight or obesity) and dyads with normal body mass in obesity determinants, derived from social-ecological models. It was hypothesized that parents and their 5–11 years-old children with excessive body mass would (1) report lower availability of healthy food at home, (2) perceive fewer school/local community healthy eating promotion programs, (3) report lower persuasive value of food advertising. Methods: Data were collected twice (T1, baseline; T2, 10-month follow-up), including n = 129 parent–child dyads with excessive body mass and n = 377 parent–child dyads with normal body mass. Self-reported data were collected from parents and children; with body weight and height assessed objectively. General linear models (including analysis of variance with repeated measures) were performed to test the hypotheses. Results: Compared to dyads with normal body mass, dyads of parents and children with excessive body mass perceived lower availability of healthy food at home and fewer healthy eating promotion programs at school/local community (T1 and T2). These effects remained significant after controlling for sociodemographic variables. No significant differences in persuasive value of food advertising were found. Conclusions: Perceptions of availability of healthy food at home and healthy nutrition promotion may be relatively low in parent–child dyads with excessive weight which, in turn, may constitute a risk factor for maintenance of obesity.

The aim of the article is to attempt and show the “enlightenment” of the peasants of Greater Poland in the middle of the nineteenth century in the magazines addressed to them, especially in relation to matters of education and upbringing. The subject of the research is the information on educational issues raised in one of the magazines for the people – “Wielkopolanin,” which was published in the years 1848-1850. Among the educational issues raised, the most important was the promotion of national identity both at school and at home. Further, it covered such topics as the influence of teachers on patriotic activity (their attitudes, values, importance in the local community), the role of village nursery schools, and support for orphans.

This article presents an extension event that supports internationalization at home in a local context of English teachers’ education and social language practices. The event is planned and carried out in a partnership among English teachers in Inhumas, and professors from foreign and local High Education Institutions. The goals of the study are: i) to discuss the role of the process of Internationalization at Home at UEG through an extension action and ii) to point possible contributions of the extension action for English teachers' education in the local community. The empirical material discussed came from reflections during a meeting in 2018, and from an electronic form in 2019. The discussion revealed the relationship between the event and the internationalization, and the potential expansion of teachers’ education during the event which holds a strong community sense that connects teachers from diverse fields, backgrounds, and contexts.

Relationships with others or similar groups in society in the youth of everyone's life provide many experiences. Home situations, the sense of safety and care available to parents are significant in this development.  For the youth, the family provides the protective features of food, clothing, shelter and love. It is desired to give himself priority and freedom in homes. It is learnt that children's attitudes also develop according to the upbringing of their parents at home. Human behaviors are developed and regulated by social units in which human interaction sits. In this way, relationships are often the state of family relationships and the state of co-relationships of society. It is the urge to live together, the urge to depend, to do so, and to take the lead in the process of conception and co-operation. This article is a demonstration of the nature of such relationships through the works of poet N. Muthukumar.

Children suspected of obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) are traditionally investigated in hospital with overnight sleep studies, and single-channel pulse oximetry is the commonest form of initial study. A prospective study was conducted comparing unsupervised sleep studies, using a Nellcor N-395 pulse oximeter, performed in hospital and at home. Two hundred and eleven patient studies were completed in 18 months, 158 in hospital and 53 at home. The median age of patients was four years in both groups. The mean study duration was 9 h 5 min in hospital and 9 h 12 min at home (P = 0.75). The mean time in pulse search was 0.4% (SD = 0.7) in hospital and 0.2% (SD = 0.4) at home (P = 0.008). The number of failed studies was 96 of 254 (38%) in hospital and three of 56 (5%) at home (P<0.001). Overall, 149 hospital bed days were saved (at £690 per bed day), representing £68,540 saved annually. The results show that unattended home sleep studies in the form of overnight pulse oximetry can be performed to a standard better than hospital studies, where local community nursing facilities exist.

COVID-19 is a group of infectious disease caused by the corona virus (SARS-CoV-2). The spread of this virus so quickly to various countries in the world, including Indonesia, has resulted in COVID-19 becoming a global pandemic as a result of which efforts to prevent and control this disease are expected. Residents have an important role in breaking the chain of transmission of COVID-19 so as not to cause new infections. Given the mode of transmission from individual to individual, transmission can occur both at home, traveling, at work, places of worship, tourist areas as well as other areas where people interact socially. Therefore, this service aims to provide knowledge to the community in the form of counseling so as to apply health protocols during the COVID-19 pandemic. Counseling uses lecture, discussion, and question and answer methods. The results of the counseling activity that was held for a day showed that there was still a lack of awareness of the residents of the Manggala village regarding efforts to implement health protocols during the COVID-19 pandemic. The counseling was attended by stakeholders and received a good response, this can be seen from the questions from the local community.
