Advanced Assistive Technologies for Elderly People: A Psychological Perspective on Seniors' Needs and Preferences (part A)
(2020)
Vogel, Carl; Troncone, Alda; Amorese, Terry; Cuciniello, Marialucia; Saturno, Raffaele; Pugliese, Luca; Cordasco, Gennaro; Esposito, Anna
Abstract:
This paper provides an overview of the literature concerning Seniors? psychological perspective in exploiting assistive robots and the embodied conversational agents. The main theoretical models devoted to assess user?s technology acceptance are briefly reviewed along with a description of the main factors empirically found to be positively/negatively associated with Seniors? acceptance level. Special attention is reserved to barriers generated by Seniors? representations of social assistive technologies, such as, a stigma or threat to their autonomy, infantilization, privacy interferences, fear of dehumanization and isolation.

Assimilation of agile practices in use
(2012)
Wang, Xiaofeng; Conboy, Kieran; Pikkarainen, Minna
Abstract:
Agile method use in information systems development (ISD) has grown dramatically in recent years. The emergence of these alternative approaches was very much industry-led at the outset, and while agile method research is growing, the vast majority of these studies are descriptive and often lack a strong theoretical and conceptual base. Insights from innovation adoption research can provide a new perspective on analyzing agile method use. This paper is based on an exploratory study of the application of the innovation assimilation stages to understand the use of agile practices, focusing in particular on the later stages of assimilation, namely acceptance, routinisation and infusion. Four case studies were conducted and based on the case study findings, the concepts of acceptance, routinisation and infusion were adapted and applied to agile software development. These adapted concepts were used to glean interesting insights into agile practice use. For example, it was shown that the ...

Comparison of acceptance and distraction strategies in coping with experimentally induced pain
(2018)
McGuire, Brian; Moore, Hazel; Stewart, Ian; Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Barnes-Holmes, Yvonne
Abstract:
Background: This study compared an acceptance-based strategy with a control-based strategy (distraction) in terms of the ability of participants to tolerate a painful stimulus, across two experiments. In addition, participants were either actively encouraged, or not, to link pain tolerance with pursuit of valued goals to examine the impact of pursuing a personally meaningful goal or value on the extent to which pain will be tolerated. Methods: Participants in experiment 1 (n= 41) and experiment 2 (n= 52) were equally assigned to acceptance or distraction protocols. Further, half the participants in each group generated examples from their own lives in which they had pursued a valued objective, while the other half did not. In experiment 2, the values focus was enhanced to examine the impact on pain tolerance. Results: There were no significant differences overall between the acceptance and distraction groups on pain tolerance in either experiment. However, in experiment 2, individua...

Examining the Roles of Acceptance, Suppression and Other Therapeutic Strategies in Anxiety and Relaxation
(2009)
Wilson, Christopher
Abstract:
The current thesis examined the influence of acceptance, suppression and other coping strategies on levels of physiological and self-reported anxiety, induced experimentally by academic tasks. The research program comprised four automated experimental studies. Chapter 1 provides a review of the available literature on relaxation techniques, including empirical evidence of their utility, theories of underlying processes and the role of various psychological strategies. Chapter 2 comprises Experiment 1 (n=60) that compared five intervention components with placebo. The first part of the intervention comprised Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) Training or Placebo, coupled thereafter with a specific strategy that was intended to supplement the PMR Training/Placebo in terms of reducing participant anxiety induced by the academic test. Specifically, participants were instructed to engage in acceptance or suppression (or placebo) in response to task-induced anxiety. Mean skin conductance...

Far from Home: Life as an LGBT migrant in Ireland
(2018)
Keogh, Brian
Abstract:
Data from Burning Issues 2, Ireland?s largest national consultation of the LGBT community to date, suggested that more needs to be done to make Ireland a welcoming place for LGBT migrants.To explore this issue further, the National LGBT Federation sought and received funding from the Community Foundation for Ireland to carry out research on the experiences and needs of LGBT migrants in Ireland.The research element of this project was designed in collaboration with a diverse group of people who have migrated to Ireland and identify as LGBT.A survey with a mix of open and closed questions was distributed online and 231 people contributed to this project by completing it. A wide range of nationalities were represented, with participants from 48 different countries. The most commonly represented countries were Brazil, the US, Poland, the UK and Germany. Twelve participants were living in direct provision centres at the time. Roughly 90% of participants identified as cisgender (205), wit...

<p><strong>Objective:</strong> Ireland has medical workforce challenges and a growing demand for services. One strategy is to include Physician Associates (PAs) in healthcare settings. A pilot study was undertaken with PAs recruited from North America and the United Kingdom to work in a large Dublin teaching hospital.</p> <p><strong>Methods:</strong> Four PAs were deployed on surgical services. Communication with the hospital staff preceded their employment. A series of interviews were undertaken at the beginning [2015] and end [2017] of the project. Data collection included surveys and interviews with staff and PAs.</p> <p><strong>Results:</strong> Despite a series of communications about the employment of PAs a lack of awareness among hospital sta...

Abstract:
This study aimed to isolate the conditions under which aversive stimulation is experienced as more or less discomforting/unpleasant. Discomfort was induced by playing loud noises through headphones while participants performed computer tasks. We employed 4 main conditions. Condition 1: the acceptance-based protocol (ACT), intended to integrate discom- fort in a valued direction, was implemented before the Inclusion Task (task performance could continue despite the presence of the noise). Subse- quently, the experiential avoidance-based protocol (EA), intended to pro- mote a relation of opposition between discomfort and valued actions, was implemented before the Opposition Task (task performance was suspended until the participants eliminated the sounds). Condition 2: this order was reversed. Conditions 3 and 4: the tasks were presented without any proto- col. The ACT protocol produced the lowest level of discomfort, particularly when it was implemented before participants had exper...

Themes in the supervision of social care students in Ireland: Building resilience
(2017)
McSweeney, Fiona
Abstract:
The field placement is core to the education of social care practitioners and practice teachers’ behaviours influence the learning and development of future practitioners. However the practice teacher role is complex with responsibilities to the agency, clients and the student (Davys & Beddoe, 2000). Twenty practice teachers were interviewed individually about their views of their role, in particular what they saw as most and least important. Inductive thematic analysis resulted in the identification of five themes 1) the nature of the work; 2) acceptance of individuality; 3) commonality and differences from staff; 4) focus on positives and 5) practice involves planning, doing and reflecting. Although resilience was not specifically mentioned the findings indicate that supervisors focus on ways of working with students that proactively encourages resilience in line with Grotberg’s (1995) model, sending students messages in relation to I am (respected and respectful of others), I...

Transforming Beef By-products into Valuable Ingredients: Which Spell/Recipe to Use?
(2017)

Abstract:
Satisfying the increasing global demand for protein results in challenges from a supply perspective. Increased use of animal proteins, through greater use of meat by-products, could form part of the solution, subject to consumer acceptance. This research investigates consumer evaluations of food products that incorporate ingredients derived from offals that have been produced through a range of food processing technologies. Using focus groups incorporating product stimuli representing various combinations of offals, processing, and carrier products, the research finds that the physical state and perceived naturalness of the ingredients influences acceptance. It also highlights the impact of life experiences, linked to demographic characteristics, on interpretations and evaluations of products and processes. Ideational influences, i.e., knowledge of the nature or origin of the substance, are reasons for rejecting some concepts, with misalignment between nature of processing and the p...
