Understanding Pediatric Perceptions and Confidence in Epinephrine Use: A Comparison of Auto-Injectors and Needle-Free Alternatives

The purpose of this study is to understand how kids and their caregivers feel about two ways to give epinephrine, a medicine used for serious allergic reactions. One way uses a needle (like an EpiPen), and the other is a new nose spray that doesn't use a needle (called Neffy). We want to find out which one kids and their families feel more comfortable using, and which one they are more likely to carry with them and use in an emergency. This information can help doctors recommend the best option to keep kids safe.

Constituent Perceptions of the Legislative Process

Externally drafted legislation (by bureaucrats or interest groups) is very common in U.S. State Previous research shows that voters are skeptical of legislation drafted by lobbyists or other outside groups and there is public disdain for these groups. This study explores how public opinion respond to the involvement of non-legislative actors in the drafting of state legislation. The rationale for this study stems from increasing concern over democratic legitimacy and transparency in state policymaking.
