Mobile Phones and HIV Testing: Multicountry Instrumental Variable Analysis From Sub-Saharan Africa

Mobile Phones and HIV Testing: Multicountry Instrumental Variable Analysis From Sub-Saharan Africa

In our paper, we also explore the mechanisms through which mobile phone connectivity affects HIV-testing knowledge and uptake. We test if mobile connectivity has a direct effect on levels of HIV knowledge and whether it influences overall knowledge about reproductive health (ie, knowledge about other sexually transmittable infections [STIs] and about contraceptive methods). We find that indeed mobile connectivity influences general knowledge about HIV and reproductive health.

App Design Features Important for Diabetes Self-management as Determined by the Self-Determination Theory on Motivation: Content Analysis of Survey Responses From Adults Requiring Insulin Therapy

App Design Features Important for Diabetes Self-management as Determined by the Self-Determination Theory on Motivation: Content Analysis of Survey Responses From Adults Requiring Insulin Therapy

In addition, based on the SDT [21], the survey also included questions about motivation for self-management and psychological needs for competence, autonomy, and connectivity. Details of these measures are reported in prior publication [33].

Effects of Social Media Use on Connectivity and Emotions During Pandemic-Induced School Closures: Qualitative Interview Study Among Adolescents

Effects of Social Media Use on Connectivity and Emotions During Pandemic-Induced School Closures: Qualitative Interview Study Among Adolescents

Codes in which adolescents discussed their changes in social media use, connectivity, and emotions were abstracted and reviewed in further detail by the senior coinvestigator and the study team for main themes; memos were written for each theme and shared with the research team, and inductive codes were applied to the data based on the discussion of the initial coding scheme. The themes were developed based on discussions among the entire team.

Electricity, Computing Hardware, and Internet Infrastructures in Health Facilities in Sierra Leone: Field Mapping Study

The infrastructure (or information structures) that support collection, processing, and knowledge-mining of individualized patient data can be categorized as connectivity, computing hardware, and electricity. This study does not discuss other architectural (nonphysical) information structures such as standards and interoperability components.

Impact of App-Delivered Mindfulness Meditation on Functional Connectivity, Mental Health, and Sleep Disturbances Among Physician Assistant Students: Randomized, Wait-list Controlled Pilot Study

A second aim is to examine whether changes in mental health are associated with changes in brain connectivity, indexed using a whole-brain connectome and multivariate pattern analysis approach to query within- and between-network connectivity across the entire brain before and after mindfulness training.
