Lived and care experiences of chronic musculoskeletal shoulder pain in Australian adults: A qualitative study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives Australian evidence on lived and care experiences of chronic musculoskeletal shoulder pain (CMSP), irrespective of disorder classification or disease, is limited. However, such evidence is important for person‐centred care and informing local service pathways and care guidelines or standards.

Verbal and novel multisensory associative learning in adults [v2; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/12s]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2013
To date, few studies have focused on the behavioural differences between the learning of multisensory auditory-visual and intra-modal associations. More specifically, the relative benefits of novel auditory-visual and verbal-visual associations for ...

A tale of six fish: Achieving social presence through discussion forums in an offline learning environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
It is widely held, through the Socratic tradition, that discussion is at the heart of learning. Moderated discussion forums have been shown to replicate the debate, argument and verbal defence of viewpoints that we have come to expect in face-to-face ...

Electrolyte‐Jet 3D Printing of Copper‐Based Strain Sensors for Physiological Signal Monitoring and Robotic Manipulation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Electrolyte‐jet (EJ) 3D printing turns copper ions into precisely arranged copper microspheres, which combine with flexible polymers and carbon nanomaterials to create durable, high‐sensitivity sensors. These sensors accurately monitor human motion and physiological signals. Real‐time robotic hand control via gesture mirroring demonstrates an intuitive

Cultural variation in cognitive flexibility reveals diversity in the development of executive functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cognitive flexibility, the adaptation of representations and responses to new task demands, improves dramatically in early childhood. It is unclear, however, whether flexibility is a coherent, unitary cognitive trait, or is an emergent dimension of task ...

Soft Robotic Excretory Care Simulator for Nursing Education: Functional and Perceptual Biomimetics Approach

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
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

Unilateral Ankle‐Foot Exoneuromusculoskeleton with Balance‐Sensing Feedback for Self‐Help Telerehabilitation after Stroke

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study introduces a hybrid robot that integrates mechanical assistance by musculoskeletons (i.e., soft pneumatic muscle with rigid exoskeletal extensions), neuromuscular electrical stimulation, and vibrotactile feedback in a lightweight wearable mechatronic complex applicable to the paretic ankle–foot poststroke for gait restoration. The system can

The Von Restorff effect in the Brazilian version of the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test in an elderly population

open access: yesDementia & Neuropsychologia
. The Von Restorff (isolation) effect refers to a stimulus that is more likely to be remembered amongst other stimuli in memory tasks. It has been demonstrated with different age ranges and methodologies.
