Lewy body disease (LBD) is a devastating condition with cognitive and physical deficits that pose a challenge to family caregivers. The purpose of this study was to identify the needs and concerns of family caregivers of persons with LBD. A convenience sample of LBD caregivers were interviewed regarding their caregiving needs, concerns, strategies, and advice. A content analysis approach was used to organize data into themes from an existing needs and concerns framework. Findings included the need for more information about the disease, strategies for managing LBD-related emotions and behaviors, support and assistance with physical and instrumental care, and strategies for managing one’s own personal responses to caregiving. Findings highlight the need for a Lewy body specific caregiver assessment tool and future caregiver interventions.

Abstract: This study discussed the themes of multimedia proselytising on Facebook used by Makassar's preachers as well as the usage of various forms of multimedia to convey messages to audiences (mad'u) through the Facebook social network. This research was a qualitative study using a content analysis approach. The results of the study stated that the themes conveyed by the preachers were aqidah (faith), sharia (Islamic law), akhlak (manner) morals, mu'amalah (dealings between people), and general messages, such as education, behaviour, and defending the country. While the forms of multimedia proselytising used by da'i (Islamic preachers) were the textual message, images, audio, and video. In addition, da'i needed to improve the quality of material and media da'wa by using information technology through internet media in order to get effective communication (da'wah).

A pattern analysis approach, based on classification and ordination, is presented for the characterization of environmental contributions to differences among lines in mean performance and response across environments. Other approaches to the analysis of line performance and environmental interactions are also considered. A population of soybean lines is used to illustrate the analyses for two characters, seed yield and seed protein percentage. In general, correlation of line performance over environments indicated that only moderate similarity of relative line performance existed over years or locations. These associations did not provide a clear basis for rationalization of test sites. Partitioning of variance components allowed a general strategy for sampling environments to be defined. Marked differences existed among environments for their contribution to environmental interaction, and these generally were consistent among locations for the two years of testing. Classificatory and ordination analyses were applied separately, and the contributions of each of the test environments were determined. These procedures confirmed that large differences in line response existed among environments, and provided additional and complementary information about the contributions of particular test environments to those differences. The effect of abandoning particular test sites on the recognition of differences among lines was examined by pattern analysis. The implications of the information gained through the pattern analysis approach in the development of testing strategies, and in the selection of test environments for specific objectives, are discussed.

Abstract Background:The shortage of psychiatric nurses is a major healthcare challenge. Lack of interest (LOI) is a significant factor contributing to the shortage of psychiatric nurses. Nonetheless, there are limited studies in this area. The present study was conducted to explore nurses’ experiences of the causes of their LOI in working in psychiatric wards.Methods:This qualitative study was conducted in 2016–2019 using the content analysis approach. Participants were 27 nurses purposively recruited with maximum variation from the psychiatric wards of three referral hospitals in Iran. Data were collected via unstructured interviews and were concurrently analyzed using the conventional content analysis approach recommended by Graneheim and Lundman.Results:The causes of participants’ LOI in working in psychiatric wards were grouped into three main categories, namely inadequate professional skills for psychiatric care practice, negative public attitude towards psychiatric nurses, and concerns over patients.Conclusion: This study suggests that the causes of nurses’ LOI in working in psychiatric wards are not only personal, but also social and organizational. Findings help managers and authorities develop strategies to increase psychiatric nurses’ interest in working in psychiatric wards through improving their work conditions and professional knowledge and skills.
