Based on the CREATER model, this study investigated the teachers’ experiences as change agents in each stage of the process. The research results could provide guidelines for educators who are devoted to promote the information literacy or other innovations. The method of case study was used to design this study. The subjects of this study were the teachers who voluntarily implemented the information literacy curriculum in an elementary school in the southern part of Taiwan. The methods for collecting research data were observations, interviews, and document analyses. The research results showed that the change process of implementing the information literacy curriculum corresponded to the seven stages of the CREATER model. However, the stages of “care,” “relate,” and “examine,” did not obviously happen in sequence. As members of the organization, the teachers could transform effectively the innovative concept into an action, but whether the innovation could be persistent depended on team relationships, teachers’ self-renewal capacity, and approvals and participation of the leaders who really managed the organization. 頁次:70-89

    Abstract Introduction: Theory of mind (ToM) refers to the ability to understand and attribute mental states to oneself and others. A ToM measure is warranted for preschool children to assess their ToM development from a multidimensional perspective (i.e., cognitive and affective dimensions). This study aimed to develop the Preschool Theory of Mind Assessment (ToMA-P) and to evaluate its construct validity and applicability.
    Methods: The ToMA-P was developed based on comprehensive literature review and revised with expert panel feedback. Its psychometric properties were evaluated in 205 typically developing preschoolers with Rasch analysis for its dimensionality, item difficulties, and convergent validity.
    Results: The results indicated that all ToMA-P items, except for one, fit the hypothesized two-dimensional construct. The item difficulties in the cognitive and affective dimensions followed developmental sequences. The ToMA-P scores exhibited good convergent validity, as evidenced by its significant correlations with age, verbal comprehension, adaptive functions, and daily ToM performance (
    Discussion: This study provides empirical evidence that the ToMA-P measures cognitive and affective ToM following developmental sequences, and that it has potential as a clinical tool for assessing ToM in preschool children.

    Abstract Antigen design guided by high-resolution viral glycoprotein structures has successfully generated diverse vaccine candidates for COVID-19. Using conjugation systems to combine antigen design with computationally optimized nanoparticles, researchers have been able to display multivalent antigens with beneficial substitutions that elicited robust humoral immunity with enhanced neutralization potency and breadth. Here, we discuss strategies that have been used for structure-based design and nanoparticle display to develop COVID-19 vaccine candidates as well as potential next-generation vaccine candidates to protect against SARS-CoV-2 variants and other coronaviruses that emerge into the human population.

    Abstract Importance: Performance of coloring, origami, and copying activities reflects children's visual-motor integration (VMI), but the levels of association remain unclear.
    Objective: To use artificial intelligence (AI) to investigate associations of performance of coloring, origami, and copying activities with VMI.
    Design: Cross-sectional study.
    Setting: Kindergartens.
    Participants: A sample of 370 children (182 boys and 188 girls) in the second and third years of kindergarten.
    Outcomes and measures: Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration, 6th Edition (VMI-6).
    Results: Data for preschool children from an ongoing project were retrieved. AI models were trained to use photographs of activity products to predict total score on the VMI-6. R2 values were used to identify the variance in VMI-6 standardized scores explained by predicted scores from the activities. That is, R2 values reflected associations between activity performance and VMI. The R2 values for the combination of origami and copying were the largest (.390-.577). These R2 values were larger than those for each individual activity (.340-.473) and similar to those for the combination of all three activities (.400-.550).
    Conclusions and relevance: Because moderate R2 values were found between performance of the three activity products and VMI, the three activities have high potential for use in identifying children's level of VMI or as teaching materials to facilitate the development of children's VMI. Furthermore, combining origami and copying activities is recommended for teachers and clinicians who need to address VMI. What This Article Adds: A combination of origami and copying activities had the strongest associations with children's VMI. Teachers and clinicians can use these two activities when addressing VMI development among preschool children.

    Abstract Background and hypothesis: The Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) consists of 30 items and takes up to 50 minutes to administer and score. Therefore, this study aimed to develop and validate a machine learning-based short form of the PANSS (PANSS-MLSF) that reproduces the PANSS scores. Moreover, the PANSS-MLSF estimated the removed-item scores.
    Study design: The PANSS-MLSF was developed using an artificial neural network, and the removed-item scores were estimated using the eXtreme Gradient Boosting classifier algorithm. The reliability of the PANSS-MLSF was examined using Cronbach's alpha. The concurrent validity was examined by the association (Pearson's r) between the PANSS-MLSF and the PANSS. The convergent validity was examined by the association (Pearson's r) between the PANSS-MLSF and the Clinical Global Impression-Severity, Mini-Mental State Examination, and Lawton Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale. The agreement of the estimated removed-item scores with their original scores was examined using Cohen's kappa.
    Study results: Our analysis included data from 573 patients with moderate severity. The two versions of the PANSS-MLSF comprised 15 items and 9 items were proposed. The PANSS-MLSF scores were similar to the PANSS scores (mean squared error=2.6-24.4 points). The reliability, concurrent validity, and convergent validity of the PANSS-MLSF were good. Moderate to good agreement between the estimated removed-item scores and the original item scores was found in 60% of the removed items.
    Conclusion: The PANSS-MLSF offers a viable way to reduce PANSS administration time, maintain score comparability, uphold reliability and validity, and even estimate scores for the removed items.

    Abstract Objective: The Fugl-Meyer assessment for upper extremity (FMA-UE) is a measure for assessing upper extremity motor function in patients with stroke. However, the considerable administration time of the assessment decreases its feasibility. This study aimed to develop an accumulative assessment system of upper extremity motor function (AAS-UE) based on the FMA-UE to improve administrative efficiency while retaining sufficient psychometric properties.
    Methods: The study used secondary data from 3 previous studies having FMA-UE datasets, including 2 follow-up studies for subacute stroke individuals and 1 test-retest study for individuals with chronic stroke. The AAS-UE adopted deep learning algorithms to use patients' prior information (ie, the FMA-UE scores in previous assessments, time interval of adjacent assessments, and chronicity of stroke) to select a short and personalized item set for the following assessment items and reproduce their FMA-UE scores.
    Results: Our data included a total of 682 patients after stroke. The AAS-UE administered 10 different items for each patient. The AAS-UE demonstrated good concurrent validity (r = 0.97-0.99 with the FMA-UE), high test-retest reliability (intra-class correlation coefficient = 0.96), low random measurement error (percentage of minimal detectable change = 15.6%), good group-level responsiveness (standardized response mean = 0.65-1.07), and good individual-level responsiveness (30.5%-53.2% of patients showed significant improvement). These psychometric properties were comparable to those of the FMA-UE.
    Conclusion: The AAS-UE uses an innovative assessment method which makes good use of patients' prior information to achieve administrative efficiency with good psychometric properties.
    Impact: This study demonstrates a new assessment method to improve administrative efficiency while retaining psychometric properties, especially individual-level responsiveness and random measurement error, by making good use of patients' basic information and medical records.

    Abstract Objective: To examine the test-retest reliability, responsiveness, and clinical utility of the Computerized Adaptive Testing System of the Functional Assessment of Stroke (CAT-FAS) in persons with stroke.
    Design: Repeated measurements design.
    Setting: A department of rehabilitation in a medical center.
    Participants: 30 persons with chronic stroke (for test-retest reliability) and 65 persons with subacute stroke (for responsiveness) were recruited. To examine the test-retest reliability, the participants received measurements twice at 1-month intervals. To examine the responsiveness, the data were collected at admission and discharge from hospital.
    Interventions: Not applicable.
    Main outcome measurement tool: CAT-FAS.
    Results: The intra-class correlation coefficients of the CAT-FAS were ≥0.82, indicating good to excellent test-retest reliability. The Kazis' effect size and standardized response mean of the CAT-FAS were ≥0.96, indicating good group-level responsiveness. For individual-level responsiveness, approximately two-thirds of the participants exceeded the conditional minimal detectable change. On average, the CAT-FAS was completed within 9 items and 3 minutes per administration.
    Conclusions: Our results suggest the CAT-FAS is an efficient measurement tool with good to excellent test-retest reliability and responsiveness. In addition, the CAT-FAS can be used routinely in clinical settings to monitor progress of the crucial 4 domains for persons with stroke.

    Abstract Background: The minimal important difference (MID) of the Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke Patients (PASS) remains unknown, limiting the interpretation of change scores.
    Objectives: To estimate the MID of the PASS in patients with subacute stroke.
    Methods: Data at admission and discharge for 240 participants were retrieved from a longitudinal study. The "mobility" item of the Barthel Index was used as the anchor for indicating the improvement of posture control. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) method was used to estimate the anchor-based MID of the PASS.
    Results: The ROC method identified a MID of 3.0 points, with a sensitivity of 81.0 % and a specificity of 75.6 %.
    Conclusion: The MID of the PASS was 3.0 points, indicating that if a patient achieves an improvement of 3.0 or more points on the PASS, they have a clinically important improvement in posture control. Our results can help in interpreting change scores and aid in understanding the clinical values of treatment outcomes.
