A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in

PROTECTIVE OR DESTRUCTIVE? INVESTIGATING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GENTRIFICATION AND CHILDHOOD HEALTH OUTCOMES [PDF]
Gentrification is a wildly contentious, highly politicalized issue that some scholars view as beneficial and others view as harmful. Historically, public health researchers have studied several neighborhood effects on health but only recently has this ...

INVESTIGATING THE ROLES OF MECHANORECEPTIVE CHANNELS IN TACTILE APPARENT MOTION PERCEPTION: A VIBROTACTILE STUDY [PDF]
Tactile apparent motion (TAM) is a perceptual phenomenon in which consecutive presentation of multiple tactile stimuli creates an illusion of motion. Employing a novel tactile display device, the Latero, allowed us to investigate this.

Bodily awareness and novel multisensory features [PDF]
According to the decomposition thesis, perceptual experiences resolve without remainder into their different modality-specific components. Contrary to this view, I argue that certain cases of multisensory integration give rise to experiences representing

The psychological impact of displacement and female genital mutilation/cutting
Although 230 million people worldwide have undergone female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C), its psychological consequences remain understudied. Asylum-seekers may face unique biopsychosocial burdens when migrating to countries where FGM/C is not a cultural norm.

Cockpit Window Edge Proximity Effects on Judgements of Horizon Vertical Displacement [PDF]
To quantify the influence of a spatially fixed edge on vertical displacement threshold, twenty-four males (12 pilots, 12 non-pilots) were presented a series of forced choice, paired comparison trials in which a 32 deg arc wide, thin, luminous horizontal ...
