Objective: The aim of this research is to analyse the use of the practical component within the online PE lesson during the Covid-19 pandemic. Design: A number of 400 PE teachers from 9 counties of Romania were interviewed in connection with the online PE lesson during the Covid-19 pandemic. Thus, the proposed questionnaire contains two parts: one in which demographic data is requested and one containing 14 items requesting the specialized opinion regarding the online PE lesson. The likert scale was used in order to construct 5 answer options for each of the 14 items. Results: Teachers who said they approach these elements "Very Much" or "A lot" are below 3.6%. Those who answered that they approach them "Enough" are still quite few when it comes to learning/strengthening motor skills specific to sports games (8%), but their number increases when it comes to speed (17.3%) and endurance (22.8%). One may also notice that the sum of the percentages “A Little” + “Not at all” of the teachers who answered that they approach these three elements is over 71%. (77.6% speed, 71.5% endurance, 97.3% motor skills specific to sports games). Conclusion: Teachers’ answers indicate the fact that, in the online PE lesson, motor skills are developed, with an increased emphasis on strength, dexterity and flexibility.

<em>A new profession has been created and is developing in Latvia – a supervisor, and it is important to characterize how its professional basis is created, including the content of the value system. The goal of the pilot study is to characterize the values of the practicing supervisors. This study addresses the following research questions: (a) What are the values of the practicing supervisors? (b) Are there differences between supervisors who practice in different professional fields? and (c) What are the differences of evaluations of importance and attainability of personal values? The participants of this research were 28 supervisors who practice in different professional fields. They filled out an electronic demographic data form online and evaluated the importance and attainability of the offered values on a 5-point Likert scale. The results showed statistically significant differences in the importance of the transcendence value and in the attainability of expediency and practicality value, as well as many differences between the evaluations of importance and attainability of personal values.</em>

Abstract Background President of Indonesia, Joko Widodo has announced two confirmed CoVid-19 cases who live in Depok, West Java, on Monday, March 2nd, 2020. A rapid assessment of public response toward the new status was conducted, focusing on perceived risk and panic buying. Methodology A cross-sectional survey was conducted within 48 hours after the announcement through an online questionnaire. A demographic data including, sex, age, education, occupation (medical vs nonmedical), income, health insurance, island domicile (Java vs non-Java), mobility, history of contact with a foreigner, and history of overseas travel within a month. Knowledge regarding Covid 19 was determined by the average score of 38 5-Likert scale questions (5 indicates better knowledge). Perceived risk was measured with a 10-scale question, and panic buying was assessed through an average score of 6 5-Likert scale questions (5 indicates panic buying). Mann-Whitney and Linear regression were performed to identify the associated factors. Results As a total of 214 respondents, panic buying was lower (2.28 ± 0.79 on a 5-scale) except for perceived risk (5.91 ± 2.13 on a 10-scale). No difference between medical and nonmedical staff in panic buying (p = 0.619) and perceived risk (p = 0.477) and the domicile of respondents (Java VS nonjava) in panic buying (p = 0.810) and perceived risk (p = 0.101). Younger age, working in a medical field and living in Java are associated with higher perceived risk in the linear model whereas panic buying is solely affected by knowledge (β -1.459. p &lt; 0.001). The respondents agreed that scarcity of single-use components (mean 4.32 out of 5) such as masker and goods inflation particularly groceries (mean 4.31 out of 5) will appear soon Conclusions It is important to disseminate the correct information to the public to reduce panic buying. Collaborative action between the government and medical staff should be done particularly in Java as the first locus of CoVid 19 in Indonesia. Key messages Knowledge regarding corona virus affects the Panic Buying. An intervention to disseminate the correct information should be done. To reduce the perceived risk, a rigorous action should be done in Java and a collaborative work between the government and medical staffs should be established.

Abstract Background Worldwide, policies exist on family presence during resuscitation (FPDR), however, this is still lacking in the Gulf Corporation Countries (GCC) in general and in the Kingdom of Bahrain in particular. The aim of this study is to assess the perspectives of healthcare providers (HP) on FPDR among those working in the emergency departments (EDs) in the Kingdom. MethodsA self-administered anonymous electronic survey was collected from 146 HPs (emergency physicians and nurses) working in the three major EDs in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Besides demographic data, 18 items measuring HPs’ perceptions of FPDR were generated using the 5-point Likert scale. Results Surveys (n= 146) from physicians and nurses were analysed (45.9% vs. 54.1%, respectively). There were significant differences between physicians and nurses in terms of personal beliefs, FPDR enhancing professional satisfaction and behaviour, and the importance of a support person and saying goodbye ( p < 0.001). However, general responses demonstrated that the majority of HPs encouraged and supported FPDR, but with greater support from physicians than nurses. Conclusion The study reflects that many HPs in EDs participated in and are familiar with FPDR, with the majority of ED physicians supporting it. Further studies should investigate the reasons for the lack of support from nurses. Results may contribute to the development of hospital ED policies that allow FPDR in the region.

The paper presents the results of a quantitative research study carried out with 280 transport logistics students in Lithuania. The research focused on the students’ opinion about the competitive advantage of Lithuanian transport companies. During their professional training, they filled out an electronic demographic data form online and evaluated the importance and attainability of the offered values on a 5-point Likert scale. The results revealed that when increasing the competitiveness of transport companies, the main attention should be paid to the customer - consumers, and their needs must be taken into account.

Purpose: To evaluate hearing aid handling skills for new and experienced users and to assess if such skills influence user's benefit and satisfaction. Methods: Seventy four participants (mean age of 70.43), experienced (n=37) or new hearing aid users (n=37) performed the tasks of "Practical Hearing Aid Skills Test" (PHAST), which were scored on a five-point Likert scale - higher scores indicate better hearing aid handling skills. Experienced users answered the International Outcome Inventory for Hearing Aids (IOI-HA) and the hearing aid benefit for handicap reduction was calculated by the hearing handicap inventory (HHIA/HHIE). Results: Medians for PHAST total scores of 79 and 71% were obtained for experienced and new users, respectively - there were no significant difference between groups. Lower PHAST scores were observed for the tasks of volume control manipulation and telephone usage. Moderate correlations were obtained between IOI benefit and quality of life items and the PHAST scores. There was no correlation between the results of PHAST and demographic data of the participants. Conclusion: There was no difference in handling skills between new and experienced hearing aid users. Handling skills affected hearing aid benefit.
