This paper studies the motives behind socially pressuring others in the context of voter mobilization. In this online experiment, college students choose whether to send an email that pressures their campus peers to register to vote for the 2020 U.S. Elections. The senders have a negative average willingness-to-pay (WTP) to send the email, meaning they would rather pay than pressure their peers. The experiment reveals two counteracting motives at play. On the positive side, senders believe that pressuring their peers will persuade them to register. On the negative side, they believe that their peers will dislike being pressured, which outweighs the positive motives. However, under anonymous messaging, they become much less sensitive to whether the recipient dislikes being pressured, and their average WTP turns positive. This pattern of behavior reflects voters who are motivated by the prospect of mobilizing their peers, but are restrained by self-interested concerns from social costs or retaliation.

Background: Despite the proliferation of clinical research that can be used to inform Clinical Practice Guidelines there remain many areas where the number and quality of research studies vary widely. Using the Canadian Clinical Practice Guideline for Moderate-to-Severe Traumatic Brain Injury (MOD-SEV TBI) as an example, there is a lack of robust research evidence, derived from randomized controlled trials, meta-analyses, and systematic reviews to inform the recommendations. Randomized controlled trials in this field often have limitations, such as smaller sample sizes and gender and racial disparities in enrollment, that reduce the level of evidence they can provide.

Objective: This review aims to formulate the most current, evidence-based recommendations regarding complication avoidance, rehabilitation, pain therapy and palliative care for patients with metastatic spine tumors.
Methods: A systematic literature search in PubMed and MEDLINE, and was performed from 2013 to 2023 using the search terms "complications" + "spine metastases", "spine metastases" + + "rehabilitation", "spine metastases" + "pain therapy" + "palliative care". Screening criteria resulted in 35, 15 and 56 studies respectively that were analyzed.
