Abstract

The academic, socioemotional, and health impacts of school policies throughout the COVID-19 pandemic have been a source of many important questions that require accurate information about the extent of onsite schooling that has been occurring throughout the pandemic. This paper investigates school operational status data sources during the COVID-19 pandemic, comparing self-report data collected nationally on the household level through a Facebook-based survey with data collected at district and county levels throughout the country. The percentage of households reporting in-person instruction within each county is compared to the district and county data at the state and county levels. The results show high levels of consistency between the sources at the state level and for large counties. The consistency levels across sources support the usage of the Facebook-based COVID-19 Symptom Survey as a source to answer questions about the educational experiences, factors, and impacts related to K-12 education across the nation during the pandemic.

8. Children of Incarcerated Parents: Considerations for Professional School Counselors

Author

Warren, Jeffrey M., Coker, Gwendolyn L., and Collins, Megan L.

Abstract

The rate of school-aged children with incarcerated parents continues to rise in the United States. These children are especially prone to experiencing social-emotional, behavioral, and academic issues in school as a result of various factors, including general strain and stress associated with incarceration. Given their unique role in schools, professional school counselors are well positioned to provide support to children of incarcerated parents. This article presents a review of relevant literature, including key theories that explain the challenges faced by children with incarcerated parents. The impact of incarceration on children as well as protective and risk factors are presented. Finally, strategies and resources school counselors can use when working with this population are offered.

9. 'Sleep-Dependent' Memory Consolidation? Brief Periods of Post-Training Rest and Sleep Provide an Equivalent Benefit for Both Declarative and Procedural Memory

Author

Wang, Serene Y., Baker, Kirsten C., Culbreth, Jessica L., Tracy, Olivia, Arora, Madison, Liu, TingTong, Morris, Sydney, Collins, Megan B., and Wamsley, Erin J.

Abstract

Sleep following learning facilitates the consolidation of memories. This effect has often been attributed to sleep-specific factors, such as the presence of sleep spindles or slow waves in the electroencephalogram (EEG). However, recent studies suggest that simply resting quietly while awake could confer a similar memory benefit. In the current study, we examined the effects of sleep, quiet rest, and active wakefulness on the consolidation of declarative and procedural memory. We hypothesized that sleep and eyes-closed quiet rest would both benefit memory compared with a period of active wakefulness. After completing a declarative and a procedural memory task, participants began a 30-min retention period with PSG (polysomnographic) monitoring, in which they either slept (n = 24), quietly rested with their eyes closed (n = 22), or completed a distractor task (n = 29). Following the retention period, participants were again tested on their memory for the two learning tasks. As hypothesized, sleep and quiet rest both led to better performance on the declarative and procedural memory tasks than did the distractor task. Moreover, the performance advantages conferred by rest were indistinguishable from those of sleep. These data suggest that neurobiology specific to sleep might not be necessary to induce the consolidation of memory, at least across very short retention intervals. Instead, offline memory consolidation may function opportunistically, occurring during either sleep or stimulus-free rest, provided a favorable neurobiological milieu and sufficient reduction of new encoding.

12. Effect of Postlearning Meditation on Memory Consolidation: Level of Focused Attention Matters

Author

Collins, Megan B. and Wamsley, Erin J.

Abstract

Recent studies demonstrate that eyes-closed rest benefits memory consolidation, perhaps due to reduced attention to environmental stimuli. Here, we asked whether focusing attention to "internal" thoughts and feelings after learning similarly blocks memory consolidation. Verbal memory was tested following an eyes-closed consolidation period filled with either focused attention to breath or quiet rest. Although breath-focus did not impair memory relative to quiet rest overall, participants who reported being more successful in maintaining breath-focus during this condition showed increased forgetting. We interpret these findings as incompatible with a simple sensory-interference-based account of rest's effect on memory.

Abstract

Traditionally, neuroscience and psychology have studied the human brain during periods of "online" attention to the environment, while participants actively engage in processing sensory stimuli. However, emerging evidence shows that the waking brain also intermittently enters an "offline" state, during which sensory processing is inhibited and our attention shifts inward. In fact, humans may spend up to half of their waking hours offline [Wamsley, E. J., & Summer, T. Spontaneous entry into an "offline" state during wakefulness: A mechanism of memory consolidation? Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 32, 1714–1734, 2020; Killingsworth, M. A., & Gilbert, D. T. A wandering mind is an unhappy mind. Science, 330, 932, 2010]. The function of alternating between online and offline forms of wakefulness remains unknown. We hypothesized that rapidly switching between online and offline states enables the brain to alternate between the competing demands of encoding new information and consolidating already-encoded information. A total of 46 participants (34 female) trained on a memory task just before a 30-min retention interval, during which they completed a simple attention task while undergoing simultaneous high-density EEG and pupillometry recording. We used a data-driven method to parse this retention interval into a sequence of discrete online and offline states, with a 5-sec temporal resolution. We found evidence for three distinct states, one of which was an offline state with features well-suited to support memory consolidation, including increased EEG slow oscillation power, reduced attention to the external environment, and increased pupil diameter (a proxy for increased norepinephrine). Participants who spent more time in this offline state following encoding showed improved memory at delayed test. These observations are consistent with the hypothesis that even brief, seconds-long entry into an offline state may support the early stages of memory consolidation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: Infertility impacts approximately 16% of couples in the United States-roughly five million individuals. Experiencing infertility takes a physical and psychological toll on the infertile individual, as well as his/her partner. The goal of the current study was to explore and provide better insight into how infertility affects the roles and daily occupations (Such as self-care and work related tasks) of females. This information can better assist health care providers in providing quality care to such clients. Methods: 21 participants, females ranging in age from 20 to 46 years and experiencing infertility, participated in this qualitative, phenomenological research study. They partook in two telephone interviews aimed at exploring how infertility has impacted their roles and daily occupations. Inductive content data analysis was utilized to analyze the data. Results: Findings resulted in three main themes. Quotes from participants were used to title the themes. They are “when you’re dealing with infertility, every aspect of your life is impacted by it”, “infertility impacted my areas of interest in life” and “infertility is very lonely”. Conclusion: Infertility has the potential to impact every area of a female’s life. The emotional impact infertility may have on women, in addition to the physical and time constraints involved with pursuing fertility treatments, frequently resulted in decreased occupational engagement and fulfillment of roles as spouse or friend. Those experiencing infertility need more resources and support to navigate their journey.

Abstract

To explore stakeholders’ perceptions of a school-based vision programme (SBVP). We conducted 20 focus groups with 105 parents and teachers at schools in Baltimore, MD, that participated in a SBVP. Facilitators used a semi-structured interview guide to discuss participants’ perceptions of the SBVP. Focus groups were audio-recorded, transcribed, and coded using inductive thematic analysis. Participant perceptions fell into three categories: benefits of school-based eye care, limitations of school-based eye care, and observation of impact. The majority of participants had positive comments about the programme; benefits included convenience (location, time, and cost), the comprehensive nature of the programme, the quality of the eyeglasses and ability to receive replacements, and a positive screening/exam experience. Limitations of programme impact were related to communication and organisation, the time to receive the glasses, missed instructional time, and uncertainty about screenings. Observations of impact included academic and classroom improvements, as well as visual and other health improvements. Parents and teachers reported mostly positive perceptions regarding the SBVP. Their appreciation for the convenience underscores that location, cost, time, and comprehensive services are crucial aspects for implementing a successful programme. To maximize impact, programs must also implement robust communication campaigns that integrate into the schools’ workflow to help parents and teachers stay engaged in the process from start to finish.

Coronavirus disease 2019 posed a challenging situation for all educational programs. This perspective provides an insight into what three instructors in a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy program in the United States did to overcome these challenges and provide quality education to the students. In addition, strategies are provided on how to conduct lectures, laboratories, and clinical competencies and practicums across eight courses. Technologies utilized in the delivery of these courses are provided with an emphasis on what worked best for different classes. Feedback from the students validated that the educational format used was beneficial to them in furthering their knowledge. The insights gained from this experience have helped the instructors to improve their knowledge of technology, increase their flexibility, and design their courses in innovative ways.
