INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY FOR THE INTEGRATED ASSESSMENT OF EXPERT COMPETENCY by Olena Lobach, Igor Babych, Elena Persiyanova

“…The following results were obtained: the problem of assessing the quality of experts was considered; based on the authors’ practical experience and analysis of literature sources, the structural diagram of the properties of experts and their assessment was developed; five main groups of existing methods for assessing the quality of experts were analyzed; existing models of an integrated assessment of the competency of experts were reviewed; a two-stage method for the integrated assessment of the competency of experts was developed by integrating the methods of heuristic, test, and statistical assessment; the main groups of users and functional requirements to the information system for assessing the competency of experts were identified; the database and user interface of the information system were developed; the developed information technology of the integrated assessment of the competency of experts was tested on actual data for selecting an expert group to choose the methodology of project management. …”

Knowledge, attitude, practice, and influencing factors among patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head by Guangnian Liu, Chengqi Huang, Zhitong Zhu, Zijing Weng, Xing Chen, Liming Dong

“…Significant positive correlations were found: knowledge-attitude (r = 0.485, P < 0.001), knowledge-practice (r = 0.580, P < 0.001), and attitude-practice (r = 0.624, P < 0.001). Structural Equation Modeling indicated direct effects of knowledge on attitude (β = 0.466, P < 0.001) and practice, (β = 0.654, P < 0.001), with knowledge also affecting practice indirectly through attitude (β = 0.066, P < 0.001). …”

The relationship between physical activity and mental toughness among Chinese university students: the chain-mediated role of self-esteem and social support by Zhixing Zhou, Jun Xiang

“…Physical activity has been considered a potential way to enhance mental toughness, yet its underlying mechanisms remain insufficiently understood.ObjectiveThis study aimed to examine the associations between physical activity and mental toughness among university students, and to explore the potential mediating roles of self-esteem and social support.MethodsThis study used the Physical Activity Scale, the Self-Esteem Scale, the Social Support Scale, and the Mental Toughness Scale with 1,184 university students in Guangdong Province as the research subjects. Data were analyzed sequentially using Pearson correlation analysis, structural equation modeling test and bias-corrected percentile bootstrap.Results(1) Physical activity was positively correlated with mental toughness (r = 0.216), and the direct path between physical activity and mental toughness was significant (β = 0.085, p &lt; 0.01, CI [0.04, 0.13]); (2) physical activity was positively correlated with self-esteem (β = 0.173, p &lt; 0.01, CI [0.11, 0.23]) and social support (β = 0.063, p &lt; 0.05, CI [0.08, 0.11]); self-esteem was positively correlated with social support (β = 0.397, p &lt; 0.01, CI [0.34, 0.45]) and mental toughness (β = 0.350, p &lt; 0.01, CI [0.30, 0.40]); and social support was positively correlated with mental toughness (β = 0.304, p &lt; 0.01, CI [0.25, 0.35]); and (3) self-esteem and social support played a significant mediating role between physical activity and mental toughness. …”
