Improving Physical Activity and Balance after Total Knee Replacement

The purpose of this research study is to compare how well two types of physical therapy (PT) programs work for people who have recently had total knee replacement (TKR). One program is typical postoperative PT. The other program is typical postoperative PT with additional balance training and physical activity coaching. By doing this study, we hope to provide people who have TKR in the future, as well as their health care providers, with information that will help people following TKR to increase their physical activity and improve their walking mechanics after TKR.

Comparing the outcomes of managing acute postoperative pain between two therapies

The Comparison of Analgesic Regimen Effectiveness and Safety in Surgery (CARES) trial is a randomized controlled study comparing the outcomes of managing acute postoperative pain between two therapies: (1) A prescription for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and acetaminophen (Tylenol); OR (2) A prescription for low-dose opioids and acetaminophen (Tylenol) for patients scheduled for one of the following 3 surgeries: (1) gallbladder removal, (2) inguinal hernia repair, and (3) breast lumpectomy.

Impact of a victim and denouncer's status on support for Political Violence

This study examines how willing people are to punish a person for committing an act of political violence based on whether the victim is a politician or civilian, and how a denouncer's status as a politician or civilian impacts people's willingness to punish political violence. Our experiment also aims to measure whether these variables impact participants' desire to run for office. The results of this study have several implications in the field. First, understanding how to change people's reactions to political violence may allow us to develop effective methods to decrease support for political violence. In addition, our results may provide insight into why people desire to run for office.

Artificial Intelligence and Mental Health

This study explores how college students feel and think about using artificial intelligence (AI) to help with mental health. We want to see if students studying science and technology (STEM) feel differently about AI than students in other areas. We're studying this because AI is being used more and more to solve both work and personal problems. However, using AI in mental health is still new and has not been talked about much.
