We used White, non-Hispanic students as the reference group
Are they saying this was the baseline they used to compare? As in, they just assumed it was the standard, or this was the standard simply because of circumstances?
Internalizing Problem Behaviors subscale consisted of four items (i.e., is the child lonely, sad, anxious, or displays low self-esteem). Problem behavior frequency was rated using a four-point response scale ranging from “never” to “very often.” Higher scores indicated that the behavior occurred more frequently. The internal consistency reliability coefficients for the externalizing and internalizing problem behaviors scales were .89 and .78, respectively (Tourangeau et al., 2019)
Very cool, as this aligns with the research I am interested in. Mirrors it in a way.
he science achievement measure was designed to assess a student’s understanding about the physical, life, and Earth and space sciences as well as scientific inquiry. The mathe-matics achievement measure was designed to assess a stu-dent’s conceptual knowledge, procedural knowledge, and problem solving. The mathematics achievement measure included items on number sense, properties, and operations; measurement; geometry and spatial sense; data analysis, sta-tistics, and probability; and patterns, algebra, and functions. The reading achievement measure was designed to assess basic reading skills (e.g., print familiarity), vocabulary, and reading comprehension
It would have been nice to see data supporting these subgroupings.
item response theory (IRT)
Also, it's cool that I will be using IRT. Used to determine if the distances from 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, & 4-5 are mathematically the same on a Likert-type scale.
Emergent literacy (α = .57) was a standardized composite score of five items related to literacy activities. The first three items assessed the frequency of parents engaging in book reading and picture book reading with the child as well as the child reading outside school. The last two items reported the number of books that their child owned and how long the parent spent on reading to their child. We added standardized scores of the first three items and the last two items to obtain the standardized composite score
Cool to see this in practice. My research turns self-efficacy into several different subgroups in a similar fashion.
dichotomous
Specifically noting only two potential outcomes for descriptive data. Coded as: Male = 0 & Female = 1 for example
attrition
Can you measure, for example, all 1st graders in a district, then the following year, all 2nd graders, 3rd, 4th, etc... and just assume that with a large sample size, the data is apples to apples?
We analyzed the public-use version of the nationally repre-sentative Early Childhood Longitudinal Study
Longitudinal and extant
Hypothesis 1: Based on prior work examining the early onset and relative stability of racial or ethnic achievement disparities (e.g., Morgan et al., 2016; Von Hippel et al., 2018), we hypothesized that Black, Hispanic, or AINAPI students would be less likely than White students to dis-play advanced science or mathematics achievement during elementary school in unadjusted analyses. We expected the observed differences to be large (Morgan et al., 2016; Plucker & Peters, 2016; Rambo-Hernandez et al., 2019). We hypothesized that Black, Hispanic, or AINAPI stu-dents would be less likely than White students to display advanced levels of science or mathematics achievement by the end of kindergarten and throughout elementary school (Freyer & Levitt, 2004; Rambo-Hernandez et al., 2019; Von Hippel et al., 2018).
This feels like a strong hypothesis that was well written.
Use of universal screen-ing using standardized measures
But also, we know students are already overtested, and even so, these tests are often heavily biased to favor the dominant group.
Research Question 1: Are Black, Hispanic, or AINAPI students less likely than White students to display advanced science or mathematics achievement during elementary school? If so, how large are the observed gaps
This feels off. A big difference between research and evaluation is that research asks few, specific, and concise questions while evaluations go for as much bang for your buck. This first research question looks like it is stretched to thin by having two questions attached to it.
Among antecedent, opportunity, and propensity factors, propensity factors most strongly predict student achievement
The cliche nature vs nurture argument comes to mind here...
lead poisoning, environmental pollutants,
It will be microplastics for future generations.
Lead, asbestos, microplastics, it's all the same thing regirgitated for future generations.
Black, Hispanic, and AINAPI students are more likely to experience concentrated poverty that results in fewer learn-ing opportunities and corresponding racial and ethnic achievement disparities during school because of histori-cally racialized policies and practices as well as ongoing residential and community segregation
Viscious cycle..
(Fryer & Levitt, 2004; Henry et al., 2020; Morgan et al., 2016; National Assessment of Educational Progress [NAEP], 2015, 2020; Navarro et al., 2012; Reardon & Galindo, 2009; Von Hippel et al., 2018).
Clearly evident and well researched in the literature.
2.6 percentage point increase in publica-tions, a 4.3 percentage point increase in citations, and a .03
2.6 and 4.3 feel signficant but 0.03 feels like a reach unless I am misunderstanding this.
3% to 4%
Similarly as before with this I am wondering why this wouldn't be displayed as ~3.5%
13% to 16%
I am wondering why they did not say 14% +/- 1.5%
Researchers follow an iterative process to solve problems.
You repeat steps over and over again to improve the solutions each time like how we wrote our narrative essay.
Part of becoming a skilled researcher is learning the epistemology of one’s discipline. Say
Its about how you think, question, and evaluate information for your own discipline.
When scholarship is working right, publication of research results produces inquiry by other scholars, which in turn produces more research.
What does this mean exactly?
Each discipline has its own methods for making or vetting knowledge claims
What disciplines has its own methods besides Psychology?
On the other hand, doing research for other reasons than to answer a question can be half-hearted or sloppy.
I agree to this, sometimes when I read my research notes on something I don't have desire for it sounds not appealing.
If students, for example, research a topic only because they are required to by an assignment, and not from a desire to learn anything in particular, the results will often be subpar.
I can agree on this because if I research something just cause I have to I won't be interested in learning and gather information about it.

HTML, which is not a programming language
Sure it is:
It's not really a debate, HTML is a markup language [1], not a programming language
This is a false dichotomy, and untrue on two points (a) that HTML is "not a programming language", and (b) that the stance you have taken is not up for debate.
You're using the term "programming language" as shorthand to refer to the subset of languages more rigorously referred to as Turing-complete general-purpose programming languages.* There are programming languages outside this subset that no less have set membership with the larger "programming language" superset.
A programming language is a programming language in the sense that they have come to exist with the advent of the stored program computer. Though HTML and other markup languages are not** Turing-complete general-purpose programming languages, they are used every bit as much to describe a stored program as a language you might encounter when opening a file containing G-code "instructions" for controlling a CNC machine.
* We had a similar (but not the same) silly recurring argument in the 90s where people, at a loss for words to accurately capture their thoughts and grasping at whatever came to mind, argued that there were two distinct classes: "programming languages" and "scripting languages"—a category error arising from the same phenomenon of mistaking loose, off-the-cuff shorthand for The Real Idea Behind the Thing That's Involved Here
** No overlooking the fact that HTML is a proper superset of CSS, a provably Turing-complete (though not general-purpose) programming language—and JS, which is, of course, a true general-purpose programming language

Healing responses may include turning to music, art, religion, literature, nature, humor, or psychotherapy for solace and understanding. Spiritual questions of purpose and meaning in life become more immediate in the face of impending death.
.
Under the Medicare Hospice Benefit, hospices provide bereavement support for at least a year to families of patients they have served. They also provide bereavement services to partners and close friends. Often, hospices provide this support to people in their community even if the death did not occur with hospice care.
.
Physicians and nurses may want to call in clergy and social workers; each may have something to offer a family that is trying to integrate the shock and loss.
.
If patients have lost the capacity to express their wishes and family members are in conflict about a certain plan, it is best to focus on what the patient would have wanted, applying the ethical principle of substituted judgment.
.
The clinician needs to communicate clearly with the family members regarding plans for care, prognosis, complications, and who will make decisions should the patient be unable.
.
The search for love, a connection to others, and a sense of meaning are essential in helping patients through the dying process.
.
CASE ILLUSTRATION 9 A 64-year-old veterinarian, Richard, develops headaches so severe that he can no longer carry on his surgical practice.
.
Guidelines for assisted suicide have been published, and clinicians confronted with a reasonable request to end life should refer to these, as well as to colleagues experienced in palliative care, for help. In almost all cases, legally permissible and clinically preferable alternatives can be found.
.
A patient’s request to hasten death should be explored in detail. At first, it should be considered a cry for help. It may represent the wish to escape from depression, anxiety, uncontrolled physical pain, shame of dependency, and other psychosocial issues.
.
CASE ILLUSTRATION 8 Sara, a bedridden 84-year-old woman with end-stage congestive heart failure, is seen on rounds.
.
In assisted suicide, the physician provides the means (such as a prescription for barbiturates) at the request of the patient, but the patient must eventually take (or not take) the potentially lethal medication by his or her own hand.
.
Voluntary active euthanasia is the act of intentionally intervening to cause the patient’s death, at the explicit request of, and with the full informed consent of, the competent patient.
.
Table 42-2.Last resort interventions: definitions.
.
Withdrawing life-sustaining but burdensome treatments, even though the withdrawal leads to death, is also an accepted part of practice based on the patient’s right to bodily integrity.
.
CASE ILLUSTRATION 7 Marvin is a 63-year-old man with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis who has been on a respirator at home for one year.
.
Patients who recover from delirium and coma sometimes report experiences that range from nightmarish, terrifying visions, on the one hand, to very pleasant out-of-body travel or visions of light and angelic beings on the other. Some may not be able to remember anything about the experience. Occasionally, the disorientation becomes profound and the sense of the world is lost. ++
.
CASE ILLUSTRATION 6 Caleb, a 101-year-old rugged dairy farmer, has become partly deaf and then blind in the last 5 years of his life but remains alert and communicative.
.
Patients have the right to forgo therapies such as intravenous fluids, nasogastric feeding, and supplemental oxygen, among others. Documentation of these choices is vital if the patient does not wish to undergo treatments and can be done on the MOLST form.
.
The notion that being resuscitated from cardiopulmonary arrest will not add appreciably to the quality and/or quantity of life is an open acknowledgment that death might be near—and that reversing the dying process is not within the power of medicine.
.
The “do-not-resuscitate” (DNR) order refers to the withholding of CPR, specifically closed-chest cardiac massage, defibrillation, and artificially supplied respiratory support. For most patients with a terminal disease, CPR is ineffective, and its harshness makes it a cruel, expensive, technological death ritual. Many studies have shown that CPR provides no increase in out-of-hospital survival for patients with progressive multisystem disease, particularly patients with advanced cancers and renal failure.
.
Advance directives are formal documents that direct health care decisions should patients lose the capacity to speak for themselves in the future.
.
There are two types of advance directives: living wills and health care proxies (also called durable powers of attorney). ++
.
Invasive interventions that exceed the usual boundaries of hospice care but that extend meaningful life and improve quality of life are sometimes appropriate even within a hospice approach, as long as the patient consents. Remaining flexible in the face of changing, difficult situations and allowing the patient’s goals to guide the treatment as much as possible permit the clinician to hope along with the patient for a death with as little meaningless suffering as possible.
.
CASE ILLUSTRATION 5 Rhea, a 64-year-old woman with metastatic breast cancer, is on high-dose long-acting morphine because of bone pain.
.
CASE ILLUSTRATION 4 Max, a 63-year-old, recently retired, and previously healthy man, develops abdominal pain and is found to have widely metastasized colon cancer.
He is told to have 6-12 months to live. Max and his wife go to a different clinic for holistic treatment, but they ghost them after the visit. He goes back to the original clinic and recieved paalliative care before he passes.
Providing ranges of survival times and allowing for outliers on either end is better than predicting an exact amount of time. (“The average person with your illness will live two to six months. It could be longer, and we will try to make that happen, but it could also be shorter, so you may want to make sure everything is prepared just in case things don’t go as we hope.”)
.
CASE ILLUSTRATION 3 At 68 years old, Albert has severe end-stage emphysema from years of smoking, severe mitral regurgitation, congestive heart failure, cardiac arrhythmias, and alcoholism.
He bullied his wife for 40 years, does not want CPR or respirator care. He yells at healthcare professionals and family for him being sick, blames medication. Eventually reveals he's afraid to die, particularly being buried alive. He receives medication that helps him calm down but dies of rising CO2 later on
For some, dying may be a time for personal growth, reflection, and meaning, but for others, personal factors and emotional reactions block an acceptance of death.
.
CASE ILLUSTRATION 2 Carlos, a 70-year-old man, has been diagnosed with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.
He's referred to hospice, responds very little to questions about death. He becomes bed bound, has routine visits to his home where he passes with his family.
Progressive declines initially may be treated as another form of bad news, but they also potentially provide the opportunity for enhanced meaning and control in the dying process.
.
Table 42-1.End-of-life issues to be discussed with patients.
.
This sadness, which may be a way of preparing for death, has been called preparatory or anticipatory grief.
.
Hospice programs provide comprehensive care to dying patients, with a multidisciplinary team of nurses, physicians, social workers, clergy, and volunteers. These programs, which accept only patients who are more likely than not to die in the next 6 months and are willing to forgo disease-directed therapies and hospitalizations, help patients and their families live as fully as possible by providing quality palliative care.
.
The advantage of hospice programs is the expertise brought to techniques of palliative care by the multidisciplinary staff, as well as the added support for patient and family at home, including payment for palliative medications and medical equipment.
.
Unlike Medicare-sponsored hospice programs, palliative care does not require patients to give up on aggressive treatment of their underlying disease, to accept a prognosis of less than 6 months, or to accept palliation as the central goal of therapy. Thus, it allows “hospice-like” treatments to be made available to those seriously ill patients who want to continue some or all disease-directed treatments.
.
This “both/and” approach has been one of the most important conceptual breakthroughs for palliative care, for it allows quality-of-life issues to be addressed for all seriously ill patients, not just those who are referred to hospice.
.
CASE ILLUSTRATION 1 Ella, a 71-year-old woman
Ella has a chest film and expects lung cancer. She has lung tumor and states that if she becomes too ill, she wants to stop treatment. She receives DNR and is referred to hospice where the main goal is to relieve her suffering.

Bias Blind Spot: The tendency to see oneself as less biased than other people, or to be able to identify more cognitive biases in others than in oneself.
citation
Patients with undetected trauma histories are often seen as “difficult” or “hostile,” frequently are late or miss appointments, are often in crisis, have poor self-care, and chronic pain. Such patients also may be labeled as “noncompliant,” with seemingly intractable health behavior problems.
.
When trauma-focused psychotherapy is not available, national guidelines recommend pharmacotherapy, in particular sertraline, paroxetine, fluoxetine, or venlafaxine as first-line monotherapies.
Pharmacology
In addition to the misuse of substances, another common comorbidity of PTSD is insomnia.
.
Chronic pain, smoking, and obesity are also common comorbidities with PTSD.
.
Other primary prevention strategies for primary care practices include support for new parents, support for home visiting programs, and universal preschool options, and firearm access reduction.
.
In addition to risk reduction strategies, characteristics that promote resilience in survivors such as self-esteem, trust, humor, internal locus of control, secure attachments, and social relationships, as well as a personal sense of safety, religious affiliation, strong adult role models, and use of existing resources can be reinforced by primary care clinicians.
.
Table 41-3.First steps to trauma-informed primary care.
.
Unlike recent trauma, disclosures of past trauma do not require an immediate intervention. Rather, clinicians can express empathy (“I’m so sorry that happened to you. You didn’t deserve that”) and provide information about the availability of services to help cope with and heal from past trauma (“I am available to talk more with you about that.
.
An appropriate response to recent IPV affirms that the patient does not deserve to be treated in this way and expresses concern for his/her safety. It also typically also includes a “warm handoff” to a domestic violence agency by telephone and/or to an onsite psychosocial team member who can construct a safety plan; lethality assessment, referrals for safe housing, legal, police, and other community resources; individual and/or group therapy; and peer support.

PTSD symptoms are grouped into four distinct clusters: re-experiencing the trauma (memories, nightmares, flashbacks), avoidance (emotional/cognitive vs. situational), negative changes in thinking/mood (not remembering aspects of the trauma, changes in beliefs about self/others/the world, self/other-oriented blame, persistent negative emotions, anhedonia, isolation, difficulty experiencing positive emotions), and arousal (sleep disturbances, irritability/anger outbursts, exaggerated startle, hypervigilance, attentional disruption, self-destructive behavior).
.
When referrals are not available for your patients, primary care clinicians can be reasonably confident in their diagnosis of posttraumatic symptomatology and need for trauma-focused treatment referral when a patient:

A score of 3 or more on the PC-PTSD-5 confers a high likelihood of trauma-related psychological distress and/or PTSD.
.

The most common forms of posttraumatic psychopathology include acute stress disorder (ASD) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Patients with trauma exposure commonly present to primary care and other settings with seemingly unrelated acute or chronic physical and mental health conditions at much higher rates than patients without trauma exposure.

Techniques described by Dr. Leigh Kimberg as the “Four C’s” can help prepare you to inquire about, and respond to, recent or past trauma:
Four C's
Examples of patient education include: posters and flyers in the waiting area, brief informational pamphlets given to patients when taking their vital signs, and invite conversations as part of routine practice and/or when trauma-related conditions are discussed.
.
Demographic factors such as female gender, age, socioeconomic status, and African American race often are thought of as nonmodifiable risk factors, but it is increasingly clear that societal response to race, gender, or age, and the resultant chronic stress, may create the actual risk in these populations.
.
More than one-third of U.S. women experience stalking, physical violence, and/or rape from an intimate partner during their lifetimes. One in five men experiences sexual violence in their lifetimes.
.
Individuals who reported four or more ACE categories had 2 times the rates of lung and liver disease, 3 times the rate of depression, 3 times the rate of alcoholism, 11 times the rate of intravenous drug use, and 14 times the rate of attempting suicide than those who reported ACE scores of 0.
.
The study revealed a strong dose–response relationship between childhood trauma and adult heart, lung, and liver disease; depression; substance abuse; obesity; diabetes; sexually transmitted infection risk; and intimate partner violence (IPV).
.
Notably, 25% of women and 16% of men reported having experienced childhood sexual abuse

The ability to producenovice teachers who are resilient and persistent in the face of the complex problemsencountered in todayís schools is a goal to which every teacher education programaspires.
More than just educationally, but also in society. If educators are unable to model resiliency and persistence, the question arises: how will the next generation learn those qualities? It is our responsibility as educators to push the next generation to be greater than we are today.
Both teachers spoke of their new positions as being an excellent fit for them
In my opinion, an educator's fit for the given role or school is not discussed nearly enough. If a person is not comfortable in some part of their occupational arena, the year can become a treacherous experience. A belief exists that one should be comfortable being uncomfortable. While that is aspirational, at some point one has to embrace something as comfortable if nothing else to have confidence that tomorrow is a new day.
All three left theirpositions because of the perceived lack of administrative support and the failure ofthese schools to attend to the needs of their students.
Leadership in education is the secret sauce. In my time in the classroom, I’ve seen good teachers leave the classroom altogether because of questionable leadership. With that said, I’ve seen people who may not have been at the top of their class in education be brought under the umbrella of great leaders and have their entire perspective changed.
Chandraís desire to continue teaching at this school despite the overwhelmingchallenges she faced might have to do with a strong sense of personal mission, whichwas linked to her twin sisterís work as a volunteer with homeless women as well asher family ethos
Chandra’s experiences are heartbreaking. She is the type of fighter that needs to be in education. Chandra’s lack of behavioral management is tough because she wants to give back so badly that she closes her eyes to problematic behaviors and the methods needed to fix them. She is the type of person who could potentially figure it out with time or when paired with a disciplinarian co-teacher. She also sounds like the type of person who could burn out very quickly. She could really go either way. In my opinion she has to find her niche’ and exhaust all options to accentuate those to her advantage. It may turn into a situatuation where she has to fake it till she makes it.
Sally noted that one day of her teacher induction program was very goodbecause she got to share a bad situation she had with a student with her mentor group
Everyone loves success stories, but humbling dialogues with your mentor or other educators about reflecting on negative endeavors are where true growth arises.

While reading this article, I was impressed by the choice of an architect as a professional stand-in for appraisal theory and archival appraisal. Terry Cook could’ve picked any profession really but an architect is such a great choice in relation to macro-appraisal because of how broad an architects social and physical dynamics and interactions can be and also how varied the purpose of a architect’s design can be. It really seems like the perfect choice for this subject and I kind of got hung up in the second part of this article trying to think of a comparable or better example that wouldn’t necessarily overlap with an architect directly. A novelist? Some sort of mass transit (commercial plane, train, bus, etc.) designer? It’s tough to come up with a topic that suits this subject as well as an architect.

NF1 Loss Promotes EGFR Activation and Confers Sensitivity to EGFR Inhibition in NF1-Mutant Melanoma
[Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC12221223
Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic, Predictive
Justification: Oncogenic: The text describes C>T transitions as characteristic of UV-induced mutations in melanoma, which are well-established features of cutaneous melanoma, indicating a role in tumorigenesis. Predictive: The identification of specific mutations, such as C>T transitions, suggests potential pharmacological targets for treatment in NF1Mut melanomas, indicating a predictive aspect for therapeutic response.

Biochemical analysis of EGFR exon20 insertion variants insASV and insSVD and their inhibitor sensitivity
[Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC11551396
Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic, Predictive, Functional
Justification: Oncogenic: The text indicates that the exon 20 insertion variants (insASV and insSVD) exhibit enhanced catalytic rates and lower Km values compared to WT EGFR, suggesting their role in promoting cancer through increased activity. Predictive: The study evaluates the sensitivity of various EGFR mutations, including L858R and exon 20 insertions, to different inhibitors, indicating that the presence of specific mutations can predict the effectiveness of targeted therapies. Functional: The biochemical analysis of the variants, including kinetic studies and enzyme assays, demonstrates their functional characteristics, such as catalytic efficiency and inhibitor sensitivity, which are critical for understanding their role in cancer biology.

Efficacy and Safety of Taletrectinib in Chinese Patients With ROS1+ Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer: The Phase II TRUST-I Study
[Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC11272140
Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic, Prognostic, Functional
Justification: Oncogenic: The G2032R mutation is associated with acquired resistance to crizotinib and is shown to respond to taletrectinib, indicating its role in cancer progression. Prognostic: The response rates and progression-free survival data for patients with G2032R mutations suggest that this variant can provide prognostic information regarding treatment outcomes with taletrectinib. Functional: The text indicates that taletrectinib has activity against the G2032R mutation, suggesting that this variant has functional implications in the context of treatment response.
