Abstract Introduction Researchers note a consistent decline in adolescents’ motivation and participation in science. It is important to examine factors vital to students’ motivation in science, such as teacher‐student relationships (TSRs). Limited research in science has examined TSRs from a multidimensional or person‐centered perspective.

A 1200-year record of parrotfish teeth suggests centuries of overfishing in Belize. [PDF]
Humans have utilized the Mesoamerican Reef for millennia but the effects of prehistorical and historical fishing on this ecosystem remain understudied. To assess long-term trends in reef fish abundance in the central Belizean portion, we used three reef ...

Force Profiling of a Shoulder Bidirectional Fabric-based Pneumatic Actuator for a Pediatric Exosuit [PDF]
This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the contact force profile of a single-cell bidirectional soft pneumatic actuator, specifically designed to aid in the abduction and adduction of the shoulder for pediatric exosuits. The actuator was embedded in an infant-scale test rig featuring two degrees of freedom: an actuated revolute joint ...

Implementation of a Biologically Inspired Responsive Joint Attention System for a Social Robot
This work introduces a responsive joint attention system in the social robot Mini, enabling dynamic, human‐like responses based on the user's head, body, and gaze. The system enhances user engagement and robot responsiveness. An experiment reveals significant improvements in social presence when the system is active, validating its effectiveness in ...

Analysis of Forces Exerted by Shoulder and Elbow Fabric-based Pneumatic Actuators for Pediatric Exosuits [PDF]
To enhance pediatric exosuit design, it is crucial to assess the actuator-generated forces. This work evaluates the contact forces exerted by soft fabric-based pneumatic actuators in an upper extremity pediatric exosuit. Two actuators were examined: a single-cell bidirectional actuator for shoulder abduction/adduction and a bellow-type actuator for ...

EEG-to-F0: Establishing artificial neuro-muscular pathway for kinematics-based fundamental frequency control [PDF]
The fundamental frequency (F0) of human voice is generally controlled by changing the vocal fold parameters (including tension, length and mass), which in turn is manipulated by the muscle exciters, activated by the neural synergies. In order to begin investigating the neuromuscular F0 control pathway, we simulate a simple biomechanical arm prototype ...

This article proposes a soft wearable robot (WeaRo) to assist workers while executing manual handling tasks. With its innovative design, the WeaRo effectively assists multiple body parts during manual handling tasks while using a single motor. Furthermore, the components of the WeaRo are assembled onto a fabric‐based suit, ensuring high performance and

Distal Biceps Tendon Repair: An Arthroscopic-Assisted Technique With Suture Anchors
Distal biceps tendon ruptures are rare injuries that can lead to significant limitations in forearm supination strength and elbow flexion. Although conservative treatment leads to satisfactory results in many cases, surgical treatment is indicated in ...
