Intercultural communication refers to interaction between speakers of different backgrounds, such as different linguistic and cultural origins (Kim 2001). Interaction in face-to face situations has demonstrated that spoken language involves both verbal and semiotic resources for social action. Semiotic resources that include use of talk, gestures, eye gaze and other nonverbal cues can convey semantic content and can become a crucial point in conversation (Hazel et al. 2014). Drawing on a Aonversation Analysis (CA) approach, we explore how participants employed semiotic resources in word searches activities in an intercultural context. Word searches are moments in interaction when a speaker’s turn is temporarily ceased as the speaker displays difficulty in searching for appropriate linguistic items so as to formulate the talk (Schegloff et al. 1977; Kurhila 2006). In this study, naturally occurring interactions in a multilingual setting were video recorded. The participants were Asian university students with different language backgrounds. The findings suggest that multilingual participants mutually collaborate by utilizing verbal affordances, gaze, gesture and other nonverbal cues as useful semiotic resources in the meaning-making process, and thus resolving word search impediments to facilitate intercultural interaction.

This review paper highlights the gaps and problems on source separation of human excreta; implementing and adopting human urine as nutrients for agriculture. The objective of the paper is to appraise the historical context behind the promotion of Urine Diversion Dry Toilet/Eco-san toilet and its relevance in rural Nepalese context. Moreover, it highlights the experiences regarding agricultural perspectives and livelihood by applying human urine as a fertilizer. Furthermore, it helps to understand and analyze the major issues, gaps and problems in acceptance and use of human excreta in Nepalese context for scaling up of its application and its transformation through school education system. Database search based on ‘Free text term’ or key word search was the strategy used to map of all relevant articles from multiple databases; Medline (1987-2018), MeSH (2005-2018), CINAHL (1998-2018) and OvidMedline (1992-2019). For each the outputs were downloaded into RefWorks databases. Specifically, this paper focuses on urine diversion to demonstrate its potential to elegantly separate and collect as nutrients and desire to control pathogens and micro-pollutants help in sanitation. It is recommended that an urgent need to participate community people and school children to disseminate users’ perceptions, attitudes and behaviour concerning the urine diversion toilets.

AimsThe release of the Cumberlege Report in 2020 served as a reminder of the importance of informed consent for women when they are started on treatment that may affect their fertility or future pregnancies.Our aim was to evaluate current performance with regards to advice given to women of childbearing age around contraception, impacts of psychotropic medication on fertility and future pregnancies, and availability of preconception counselling.MethodStandard identified as NICE Guideline 192 (Antenatal and Postnatal Mental Health), sections 1.2 and 1.4.60 female inpatients were selected by looking at the most recent discharges prior to 03/11/2020 from 3 local acute adult wards. All females aged between 18 and 48 years were included.Electronic notes were reviewed for each patient. The discharge summary and last four ward round entries were reviewed, then key-word search of the patients’ records was performed using the terms “pregnan*”, “conception”, “contraception”, and “fertility”.The following information for each patient was documented in a spreadsheet:Discharge medicationIs there any discussion or advice around contraception?Have women taking antipsychotic medication been given advice regarding the possible impact on fertility?Has the potential impact of psychotropic medication on a future pregnancy been discussed?Has advice been given about the availability of preconception counselling should they plan a pregnancy in future?ResultOn discharge, a total of 33 women were taking one or more antipsychotics and 14 were prescribed a benzodiazepine. 24 women were discharged with antidepressants and 10 women were using a mood stabilising agent. 8 women were discharged without any psychotropic medication.Overall, 4 women received advice about contraception, and a further 8 women were already using contraception. The impact of taking an antipsychotic on fertility was not discussed with any patient. No women were advised about pre-conception counselling. The impact of taking psychotropic medication on a future pregnancy was discussed with one woman.ConclusionCurrent practice falls well below the standard set by NICE. Opportunities to inform women are being missed, and this has implications for the wellbeing of the patient and, potentially, future children.Action plan;Present findings at teaching.Deliver local teaching covering preconception counselling and the role of adult mental health teams when managing women of childbearing age.Produce a poster for inpatients wards and an information leaflet for women of childbearing age to aid with discussions.Create a poster for doctors’ offices to remind about NICE standards and documentation.Re-audit in 6 months.

ABSTRACT Our study examined the effects of biased and unbiased lineup instructions verbiage on the accuracy of eyewitness identification in a suspect-absent photographic lineup. Seventy subjects were randomly assigned to either a biased instruction condition or an unbiased instruction condition where they watched a mocked crime video, solved word-search puzzles for five minutes, completed a suspect-absent photographic lineup, and then completed an online post-witness experience feedback questionnaire. The unbiased condition utilized photographic lineup instructions from the State Bar of Michigan's Eyewitness Identification Task Force recommended policy writing guide. For the biased condition, the instructions alluded to subjects that the suspect was present. Subjects in the unbiased condition answered correctly 45.7% of the time compared to 28.6% of those in the biased condition. Chi-square test for independence indicated no significant association between the lineup instructions verbiage and the accuracy of eyewitness identification rates. Binomial logistic regression found that the confidence level in the identification choice made, ease of making an identification, decision making time, ability to recognize the lineup appeinstructions, and group condition were not significant predictors of subjects correctly identifying the suspect. Our results would suggest that the verbiage of the lineup instructions does not increase accuracy of eyewitness identifications.
