Information Retrieval with Search Engines and Chatbots

The study is designed to investigate how people find and learn information using digital search systems. With the World Wide Web and other digital tools, tons of information is placed at the tips of our fingers. For many years, search engines were the predominant tool for information retrieval on the web. However, recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI) have resulted in increasing use of AI chatbots to find and learn information. This study compares how users interact with search engines and chatbots to find and learn information to better understand the cognitive processes involved in digital search and how these systems support learning.

Perinatal Depression Study in Za'atari Syrian Refugee Camp

Our study focuses on finding potential cases of Perinatal Depression amongst women in Za'atari Refugee Camp for Syrian refugees in Jordan. We created a paper survey that took questions from the Edinburgh Perinatal Depression Scale, the official questionnaire for assessing individuals for symptoms of this mental condition, and plan to give copies of the survey to patients at the Women and Girls Comprehensive Centre run by the Jordan Health Aid Society (JHASi). We are conducting this study because, while JHASi has information on some mental health conditions in Za'atari, they have no data on Perinatal Depression. According to this research, it seems many women are exposed to situations that could result in them developing Perinatal Depression. By assessing the women in the clinic for symptoms of this condition, our study will help fill this gap in JHASi's data and allow the organization to create new mental health support systems.

ARAR2331: Prospective Treatment of Types I, II and III Pleuropulmonary Blastoma (PPB)

Pleuropulmonary Blastoma (PPB) is a rare lung tumor in young children that can grow in stages from less serious (Type I) to more dangerous (Type III). This study will test how well a drug combo: vincristine, topotecan, and cyclophosphamide (VTC) works for serious types (Type II and III) and help decide which patients with less serious tumors (Type I and Type Ir (regressed) PPB ) need chemotherapy after surgery. Researchers will also study the biology of the tumor to learn more about it.
