Abstract

In this study, we are interested in how students’ personality (extraversion and neuroticism) and subjective well- being change during two COVID-19 lockdowns. We already surveyed a cohort of first-year students at four times of measurement (October 2019, January 2020, April 2020, May 2020) and now repeat and pre-register the same survey with this year’s cohort (November 2020, February 2021, April 2021, May 2021).

Abstract

Introduction: International humanitarian aid during disasters should be needs-based and coordinated in response to appeals from affected governments. We identify disaster and population factors associated with international aid appeal during disasters and hence guide preparation by international humanitarian aid providers. Methods: In this retrospective database analysis, we searched the Emergency Events Database for all disasters from 1995 to 2015. Disasters with and without international aid appeals were compared by location, duration, type of disaster, deaths, number of people affected, and total estimated damage. Logistic regression was used to examine the association of each factor with international aid appeal. Results: Of 13,961 disasters recorded from 1995 to 2015, 168 (1.2%) involved international aid appeals. Aid appeals were more likely to be triggered by disasters which killed more people (OR 1.29 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.02–1.64] log10 persons), affected more people (OR 1.85 [95%CI 1.57–2.18] / log10 persons), and occurred in Africa (OR 1.67 [95%CI 1.06–2.62). Earthquakes (OR 4.07 [95%CI 2.16–7.67]), volcanic activity (OR 6.23 [95%CI 2.50–15.53]), and insect infestations (OR 12.14 [95%CI 3.05–48.35]) were more likely to trigger international aid appeals. International aid appeals were less likely to be triggered by disasters which occurred in Asia (OR 0.46 [95%CI 0.29–0.73]) and which were transport accidents (OR 0.12 [95%CI 0.02–0.89]). Conclusion: International aid appeal during disasters was associated with greater magnitude of damage, disasters in Africa, and specific types of disasters such as earthquakes, volcanic activity, and insect infestations. Humanitarian aid providers can focus preparation on these identified factors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

78. Research without borders : how to identify and overcome potential pitfalls in international large-team online research projects

Author

Baum, Myriam A., Hart, Alexander, Elsherif, Mahmoud M., Ilchovska, Zlatomira, Moreau, David, Dokokova, Marie, LaPlume, Annalise A., Krautter, Kai, Staal, Justine, and Medical Informatics

Abstract

This case study is based on experiences with an international meta-scientific project across different fields of research, assessing the use of Open Science practices in these fields, as well as individual researchers’ reasons for not engaging in Open Science practices. The project was conducted by a cross-cultural and diverse group of researchers. In the present article, we share insights into potential pitfalls when conducting an international study, as well as possible solutions to overcome them. Specifically, we highlight various issues focusing on two key phases: designing an online survey with a focus on cross-cultural data collection, and recruiting a cross-cultural online sample of researchers.

81. Heterogeneity in mental health change during the COVID‐19 pandemic in Germany: The role of social factors.

Abstract

The COVID‐19 pandemic constitutes a prolonged global crisis, but its effects on mental health seem inconsistent. This inconsistency highlights the importance of considering the differential impact of the pandemic on individuals. There is some evidence that mental health trajectories are heterogeneous and that both sociodemographic and personal characteristics are associated with higher risk for mental health issues. By contrast, information on the role of social factors as potential determinants of initial reactions to the pandemic and on heterogeneous trajectories over time is lacking. We analysed seven assessments of a large‐scale (N = 2203) longitudinal study across 1.5 years, beginning in March 2020. Using self‐report data on mental health and life satisfaction, we applied latent change models to examine initial reactions and mean changes across the pandemic. In addition, we applied latent class growth analyses to investigate whether there were distinct groups with different patterns of change. Results showed that on average, levels of life satisfaction and anxiety decreased (d = −0.31 and d = −0.11, respectively), levels of depressive symptoms increased (d = 0.13), and stress levels remained unchanged (d = −0.01) during the first year of the pandemic. For each outcome, we identified four distinct mental health trajectories. Between 5% (for anxiety) and 11% (for life satisfaction) of the sample reported consistently high—and even increasing—impairments in mental health and well‐being. The trajectories of a sizeable number of people covaried with the course of the pandemic, such that people experienced better mental health when the number of COVID cases was low and when fewer restrictions were placed on public life. Low emotional support, high instrumental support, and the tendency to compare oneself with others were associated with more mental health issues. Findings show that whereas a substantial portion of people were largely unaffected by the pandemic, some individuals experienced consistently high levels of psychological distress. Social factors appear to play a crucial role in the maintenance of well‐being. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

82. Pediatric Casualties in Terrorist Attacks: A Semi-Quantitative Analysis of Global Events.

Abstract

Background: Terrorism remains a major threat and concern in many countries around the world. Pediatric populations represent approximately 30% of the world population, and in the event of a terrorist attack, can either be primary targets, to include the possibility of abduction, or unintended victims. They are unique in their vulnerabilities and, therefore, require special consideration. Methods: This study is a semi-quantitative, epidemiological analysis of all terrorism-related pediatric fatalities and injuries sustained from 1970-2019. Data collection was performed using a retrospective database search through the Global Terrorism Database (GTD). Summaries of events including search terms associated with pediatric population were individually reviewed and those describing the deaths, injuries, or abductions were tallied. Results: Of the over 200,000 terror events, 2,302 events met inclusion criteria. This represented 1.14% of total events which involved death, injury, or abduction. Of 2,032 events, a total of 2,275 pediatric fatal injuries (FI) were recorded, as well as 2,280 pediatric non-fatal injuries (NFI). The most common weapons used in all attacks involving the pediatric population were explosives (1,539 [66.8%]), firearms (543 [23.5%]), other (169 [7.3%]), and melee (83 [3.6%]). A total of 275 of the 2,032 events were related to abductions, with 71 cases involving the abduction of 10 individuals or more. Conclusion: Pediatric casualties in terrorist events represent a small proportion of overall victims. However, it should be understood that the pediatric population has unique vulnerabilities, and when directly impacted by terrorism, can have long-term physical and psychosocial sequelae, as well as a devastating emotional impact on the community.

Abstract

The COVID-19 lockdowns represent a major life event with an immense impact on university students' lives. Findings prior to the pandemic suggest that changes in personality and subjective well-being (SWB) can occur after critical life events or psychological interventions. The present study examined how university students' extraversion, neuroticism, and SWB changed during two COVID-19 lockdowns in Germany. To this end, we conducted a partly preregistered, two-cohort study with four measurement points each from October 2019 to May 2021 (N
