Abstract. Background: Studies have shown that postdischarge care for self-harm patients is effective in reducing repeated suicidal behaviors. Little is known about whether volunteer support can help reduce self-harm repetition and improve psychosocial well-being. Aim: This study investigated the efficacy of volunteer support in preventing repetition of self-harm. Method: This study used a quasi-experimental design by assigning self-harm patients admitted to the emergency departments to an intervention group with volunteer support and treatment as usual (TAU) for 9 months and to a control group of TAU. Outcome measures include repetition of self-harm, suicidal ideation, hopelessness, and level of depressive and anxiety symptoms. Results: A total of 74 cases were recruited (38 participants; 36 controls). There were no significant differences in age, gender, and clinical condition between the two groups at the baseline. The intervention group showed significant improvements in hopelessness and depressive symptoms. However, the number of cases of suicide ideation and of repetition of self-harm episodes was similar for both groups at the postintervention period. Conclusion: Postdischarge care provided by volunteers showed significant improvement in hopelessness and depression. Volunteers have been commonly involved in suicide prevention services. Further research using rigorous methods is recommended for improving service quality in the long term.

This research is important to develop the ability to think logically groups of 3-4 years. This research develops aspects of early childhood development, namely the ability to think logically. The purpose of this study was to determine the development of the ability to think logically 3-4 years of age through media mixing games. This type of research conducted by researchers is to use Quasi Experimental design with Nonequivalent Group Pretest Posttest Design. The results of the study showed the results of the SPPSS version 22 test get a sig value of 0.616> 0.05, thus Ha was accepted and Ho was rejected. If Ha is accepted then this shows that learning media mixing colors gives an influence on the development of logical thinking of children aged 3-4 years. Through the method of mixing colors in this study the teachers can not only develop the ability to think logically, but also can be done to develop several other aspects of development in children.Penelitian ini penting untuk  mengembangan kemampuan berpikir logis kelompok 3-4 tahun. Penelitian ini mengembangkan aspek perkembangan anak usia dini yaitu  kemampuan berpikir logis. Adapun tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui pengembangan kemampuan berpikir logis usia 3-4 tahun melalui media permainan mencampur warna. Jenis penelitian yang dilakukan oleh peneliti adalah menggunakan Quasi Experimental dengan desain jenis Nonequivalent Group Pretest Posttest Design. Hasil dari penelitian menunjukkan hasil perhitungan uji SPPSS versi 22 tersebut mendapatkan nilai sig 0,616 > 0,05 dengan dengan demikian Ha diterima dan Ho di tolak. Jika Ha diterima maka hal ini menunjukan bahwa media pembelajaran mencampur warna memberikan pengaruh terhadap perkembangan berpikir logis anak usia 3-4 tahun. Melalui metode pencampuran warna dalam penelitian ini para guru tidak hanya dapat mengembangkan kemampuan berpikir logis saja tetapi juga dapat dilakukan untuk mengembangkan beberapa aspek-aspek perkembangan lainnya pada anak

This study attempts to determine whether gamification can be used as a pedagogical technique to overcome the challenges in teaching statistics. A post-test quasi-experimental design was carried out in gamified and non-gamified groups in order to reveal the effect of gamification elements in cultivating students’ statistical literacy skills. Students in gamified group were also interviewed to understand the function of gamification process. The results suggest that; although gamifying the instructional process had a positive impact on developing students’ statistical literacy in medium and high score students; surprisingly the influence of the gamification to the low- achieved scores were not positive. The positive impact was discussed in accordance with the gradual structure of statistical literacy and suggestions for successful gamification applications due to the context were included.

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to contrast athlete endorsement vs athlete sponsorship from a power imbalance perspective when a scandal strikes the athlete. Design/methodology/approach – A first study was conducted with a probabilistic sample of 252 adult consumers where the type of brand–athlete relationship (endorsement or sponsorship) and the level of congruence between the two entities (low or high) were manipulated in a mixed experimental design. A second study with a probabilistic sample of 118 adult consumers was conducted to demonstrate that consumers perceive that the balance of power between the brand and the athlete is not the same in endorsement and sponsorship situations. Findings – The results of the first study showed that when an athlete is in the midst of a scandal, the negative impact on the associated brand is stronger in the case of an endorsement than in the case of a sponsorship. However, this occurs only when the brand–athlete relationship is congruent. The results of the second study showed that the athlete’s power relative to the brand is greater in an endorsement than in a sponsorship context. Research limitations/implications – The findings suggest that a company that worries about the possibility that the athlete with whom it wants to build a relationship be eventually associated with some negative event (e.g. a scandal) should consider sponsorship rather than endorsement as a strategy. Originality/value – This study is the first to compare the athlete endorsement and sponsorship strategies in general and the first to put forward the notion of power imbalance in brand–athlete partnerships, its impact on how the two entities are represented in consumers’ memory networks and the consequences on brand attitude when the athlete is associated with a negative event.

Studies have pointed to the benefits of physical activity (PA), yet the level of PA participation among preschoolers islow. This in turn could have resulted in the limited research literature on the PA level or physical educationcurriculum (PEC) of preschool children. Those reviewed here are mostly from countries in the West, as those fromAsia are unavailable. To fill this gap, the present study was carried out to investigate the effectiveness of a formalPEC on the physical ability of a sample of five-year old children from several preschools in Singapore. Using aPhysical Ability Assessment (PAA) tool with five variables, a pre-test/post-test quasi-experimental design was usedto measure the effectiveness of the PEC with control and experimental groups for the comparative analysis. Theresults of the PAA are presented and the implications from the findings and analysis are discussed.

Women giving birth in in-patient maternity units are required to complete certain education. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of prompting on post-partum women’s education engagement (time from assignment to completion) while testing the feasibility of staff nurses assisting in research. A quasi-experimental design was used with 141 women allocated by admission date to one of three groups (usual care and two intervention) between September 2014 and December 2015. Intervention group I women were quickest to engage in their education and had the shortest length of stay. Significance was found for academic attainment ( df = 1, F = 6.218, p = .014), partial eta squared = 0.053 and R2 = 0.124. Women who had attended college engaged more quickly in all groups than those who had not. This statistically significant finding indicates how nurses can identify patients needing more assistance. Nurses reported no adverse effects on care.
