Vaccine mistrust among Black individuals in Canada: The major role of health literacy, conspiracy theories, and racial discrimination in the healthcare system

Author(s): Cénat JM; Moshirian Farahi SMM; Bakombo SM; Dalexis RD; Pongou R; Caulley L; Yaya S; Etowa J; Venkatesh V;

The COVID-19 pandemic disproportionately affected Black communities in Canada in terms of infection and mortality rates compared to the general population. Despite these facts, Black communities are among those with the highest level of COVID-19 vaccine mistrust (COVID-19 VM). We collected novel ...

COVID-19's impact on a community-based physical activity program for adults with moderate-to-severe TBI

Author(s): Quilico EL; Wilkinson S; Bédard E; Duncan LR; Sweet SN; Swaine BR; Colantonio A;

Purpose: Physical activity (PA) is proposed for long-term problems after traumatic brain injury (TBI) with mood, quality of life, and participation. However, COVID-19 mitigation strategies resulted in widespread closures of community-based fitness centres, including one housing a peer-assisted PA program (TBI-Health). The purpose of this ...

The evolution of plasticity at geographic range edges

Author(s): Usui T; Lerner D; Eckert I; Angert AL; Garroway CJ; Hargreaves A; Lancaster LT; Lessard JP; Riva F; Schmidt C; van der Burg K; Marshall KE;

Phenotypic plasticity enables rapid responses to environmental change, and could facilitate range shifts in response to climate change. What drives the evolution of plasticity at range edges, and the capacity of range-edge individuals to be plastic, remain unclear. Here, we propose that accuratel ...

Integration of visual context in early and late bilingual language processing: evidence from eye-tracking

Author(s): Abashidze D; Schmidt A; Trofimovich P; Mercier J;

Previous research on the processing of language embedded in a rich visual context has revealed the strong effect that a recently viewed action event has on language comprehension. It has been shown that listeners are more likely to view the target object of a recently performed event than look at the target object of a plausible future event during senten ...

Inhibited and Retarded Behavior by Ca2+ and Ca2+/OD Loading Rate on Ureolytic Bacteria in MICP Process

Author(s): Fukue M; Lechowicz Z; Fujimori Y; Emori K; Mulligan CN;

The estimation of optical density (OD) with viable cells is challenging for engineering purposes. In this study, the OD conversion based on previous study was used. The inhibited and retarded behavior of the microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) process was examined. The experimental results showed that high Ca2+ drastically influences the in ...

Does Conceptual Transparency in Manipulatives Afford Place-Value Understanding in Children at Risk for Mathematics Learning Disabilities?

Author(s): Lafay A; Osana HP; Levin JR;

We investigated the effect of conceptual transparency in the physical structure of manipulatives on place-value understanding in typically developing children and those at risk for mathematics learning disabilities. Second graders were randomly assigned to one of three manipulatives conditions: (a) attachable beads that did not make the denominations or o ...

Clustering of Health Behaviors in Canadians: A Multiple Behavior Analysis of Data from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging

Author(s): van Allen Z; Bacon SL; Bernard P; Brown H; Desroches S; Kastner M; Lavoie KL; Marques MM; McCleary N; Straus S; Taljaard M; Thavorn K; Tomasone JR; Presseau J;

Background: Health behaviors such as physical inactivity, unhealthy eating, smoking tobacco, and alcohol use are each leading risk factors for non-communicable chronic disease. Better understanding which behaviors tend to co-occur (i.e., cluster together) and co-vary (i.e., are correlated) may pr ...
