Objective: Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) is a leading cause of childhood disability, yet educators report a gap in knowledge about supporting students with ABI when they return to school. We tested our professional development module to examine how it impacted educators' ABI knowledge and self-efficacy for supporting students with ABI.
Method: Fifty educators filled out questionnaires about their knowledge and self-efficacy at three time points: pre-module, post-module, and 60 days post-module. Score differences were examined across time.
Results: Participants' ABI knowledge, subjective knowledge of the module learning objectives, and self-efficacy increased from pre- to post-module, and these gains were maintained at 60 days.
Conclusions: This suggests that is a tool for better equipping educators to support students with ABI.

Self-efficacy and anatomical knowledge have been shown to be important in the development of medical students. Validated instruments designed to measure the construct of anatomical self-efficacy during the clinical years of medical school are limited. In this study, the Anatomical Self-Efficacy Instrument for Clinical Clerkships (ASEI-CC) was developed, and evidence for the reliability of the scores and the validity of the interpretations of the scores was gathered.

Epilepsy with its complex seizure mechanisms and diverse clinical manifestations, presents numerous challenges for clinical diagnosis and treatment, while electroencephalography (EEG) plays a crucial and irreplaceable role in its diagnosis. Although general-purpose foundation models have demonstrated some capability in knowledge processing, they still face challenges in capturing specific disease features and dealing with data scarcity in highly specialized domains such as epilepsy. To address these issues, we propose a domain-specific foundation model for epilepsy-EpilepsyFM, designed to learn generalized representations of epilepsy to support various downstream tasks.

Background: With the increasing integration of digital media into daily life, its influence on college students' sport-related behaviors has become a growing area of interest. While prior research highlights the general benefits of media exposure, the specific psychological mechanisms through which digital media use affects sports participation remain insufficiently understood.
Methods: Drawing on Social Cognitive Theory (SCT), this study explores how digital media use influences sports participation through the mediating role of sports cognition and the moderating role of self-efficacy.

Background: Emerging adults living with type 1 diabetes (T1D) need targeted support to equip them with the knowledge and motivation required for self-management, particularly as they transition from pediatric to adult care. While multicomponent digital health interventions have shown promise in addressing their multifaceted needs, traditional effectiveness studies provide little, if any, insights into which components work effectively, how they function, and for whom.
Objective: This study aims to explore the implementation of a multicomponent, text message-based digital intervention (Keeping in Touch; KiT) to provide early insights into which components may shape participants' transition experiences and how.
