We want to understand how young adults who vape and have depression feel about messages that encourage them to stop vaping. We're doing this to see if these messages could help people quit vaping and improve their mental health.

Some people living with HIV can have chronic lung and breathing issues. We want to learn if the immune system of the nose may lead to these problems. We will collect a sample from the nose using a small strip of paper put in the nose for two minutes. This sample will be tested for inflammation and bacteria. We will do this test in 150 people with HIV and 100 without HIV. We will ask 100 people to come back in 6 months to do the sample again.

Analyze how usage of a visualization tool that provides data quality analysis can affect a data scientist's workflow during data preprocessing

As machine learning is accepted as one of the most powerful tools to solve problems that involve a large amount of data, more and more application areas started to explore and adopt machine learning methods into their workflows. The first step of developing a machine learning model is to determine the target variable, i.e. what to predict. For instance, if a practitioner wants to develop a model to assist hiring decisions, he/she may choose a candidate's performance score as the prediction target to train the machine learning model. In practice, practitioners need to experiment and evaluate a large set of potential target variables until they reach a satisfactory one. We would like to automate the evaluation of target variables and recommend good ones to the users. The purpose of this study is to understand how different recommendation strategies influence the target selection process.

The purpose of the research is to better understand the challenges in providing audiological services to children with complex support needs.

The purpose of this research study is to improve the understanding and satisfaction with confidential reporting of learning environment concerns for Pediatric Resident physicians. We will conduct a baseline needs assessment survey , followed by targeted education on a singular reporting system, covering report submission, procedural follow-up, and outcome communication. A follow-up survey will evaluate for change in the understanding of and satisfaction with the process. Through this intervention, the objective is to enhance clarity and satisfaction with the reporting process.

To evaluate the effect of mitapivat on albumin creatinine ratio (ACR) response in subjects with sickle cell disease (SCD) and nephropathy

To determine the feasibility of measuring center of pressure in preterm infants at term equivalent age on a force plate in the NICU setting.

The purpose of the study is to analyze if asking questions on polarizing topics reduces response quality The study will analyze the research question using an experiment. Respondents will be randomly assigned to one of two main conditions. The experimental group will receive uncomfortable or embarrassing true-or-false questions about their political party, depending on what party they identify with. The questions are factual but may be perceived as biased or polarizing. The control group will receive 3 true-or-false questions about Democrats and 3 true-or-false questions about Republicans. Later, the researcher will compare instances/rates of satisficing, affective polarization, sentiment codes, internal consistency, conformity, and truthfulness between the experimental and control groups.

This study aims to understand implementation of Restorative Practices in selected NC public elementary schools, the reason for implementation failures and successes in selected schools, and the underlying causes of such failures and successes.
