<li><strong>Crowdsourcing interventions to promote uptake of COVID-19 booster vaccines</strong> -
<div>
We apply a novel crowdsourcing approach to provide rapid insights on the most promising interventions to promote uptake of COVID-19 booster vaccines. In the first stage, international experts proposed 46 unique interventions. To reduce noise and potential bias, in the second stage, experts and representative general population samples from the UK and the US rated the proposed interventions on several criteria, including expected effectiveness and acceptability. Sanctions were evaluated as potentially most effective but least accepted. Interventions that received the most positive evaluations regarding both effectiveness and acceptability across evaluation groups were a day off after getting vaccinated, financial incentives, tax benefits, benefit campaigns, and mobile vaccination teams. The results provide useful insights to help governments in their decision which interventions to implement.

<li><strong>Spillover Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Attitudes to Influenza and Childhood Vaccines</strong> -
<div>
The aim of the current study was to explore whether the COVID-19 pandemic has affected peoples perceptions of other vaccines and diseases than COVID-19. In two samples of Finnish adults (N = 205 in Study 1 and N = 197 in Study 2), we longitudinally investigated whether there has been a change from before the COVID-19 pandemic to during the pandemic in: 1) influenza vaccination behavior and intentions, 2) the perceived benefit of childhood vaccines and influenza vaccines, 3) the perceived safety of childhood vaccines and influenza vaccines, 4) the perceived severity of measles and influenza, and 5) trust in health care professionals and health authorities in vaccine-related matters. The results indicated that more people had taken or had wanted to take the influenza vaccine during the pandemic than before. The respondents also considered influenza as more severe, and influenza vaccines as more beneficial and safe during the pandemic. For childhood vaccines, by contrast, there was only an increase in the perceived safety of the vaccines. Finally, in one of the studies, trust in health care professionals was higher during the pandemic than before. Taken together, these results suggest a spillover of the COVID-19 pandemic on peoples perceptions of other vaccines and diseases.

<li><strong>Openness to Experience Relates to COVID-19 Vaccination Rates across 48 United States</strong> -
<div>
Does geographic variation in personality across the United States relate to COVID-19 vaccination rates? To answer this question, we combined three state-level datasets: (a) Big Five personality averages (Rentfrow et al., 2008), (b) COVID-19 vaccination rates for those receiving at least one does and fully vaccinated people (CDC, 2021a), and (c) health-relevant covariates (population density, per capita GDP, and racial/ethnic data; Webster et al., 2021). Correlations showed openness as the strongest predictor of both one-dose (r = .50) and fully-vaccinated (r = .51) rates. Controlling for other traits, covariates, and spatial dependence, openness remained a significant predictor of both one-dose (rp = .33) and fully-vaccinated (rp = .55) rates. We suspect that states with higher average openness scores are more conducive to novel thinking and behavior—dispositions that may be crucial in motivating people to take new vaccines based on new technologies to confront a novel coronavirus.

<li><strong>Understanding the trouble spot: Does vaccination status identification fuel societal polarization?</strong> -
<div>
As vaccination campaigns for COVID-19 fail to achieve sufficient immunization rates, public discord between the vaccinated and the unvaccinated has intensified globally. To explore the idea that identifying with ones vaccination status plays a key role in this societal polarization, the study draws on unique survey data from large samples of vaccinated (n = 3,275) and unvaccinated (n = 2,042) respondents in Germany and Austria. The findings confirm that vaccination status identification (VSI) explains substantial variance in a range of polarizing attitudes and behaviors, indicating its importance for increasing conflicts between vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals. VSI was also found to relate to higher psychological reactance toward mandatory vaccination policies among the unvaccinated and to their intention to resist and evade such regulations. The results highlight a need to de-escalate this polarized situation as a prerequisite for discussion and implementation of more widely accepted and effective vaccination strategies to mitigate the pandemic.

<li><strong>A qualitative exploration of the psychological impact of COVID-19 lockdown measures on Irish university students</strong> -
<div>
The outbreak of coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) has caused significant mental health challenges across various populations but the psychological impact on university students, who represent a population particularly vulnerable to psychological distress, are yet to be understood. Using a socio-ecological lens, this qualitative research used online interviews to explore university students experience of COVID-19 lockdown and the psychological impact of these measures. Coping strategies used by students to deal with these circumstances were also identified. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 Irish students during the third wave of COVID-19 (January 2021) and the strictest lockdown measures. Thematic analysis identified three themes which highlighted how students were negotiating change (theme 1), both in terms of lifestyle, academic life and social interactions. As a result of these major shifts in lifestyle, many experienced feelings of loss (theme 2) at an intrapersonal, interpersonal and organisational level. Despite these challenging experiences of change and loss, participants also reflected on the positive aspects of lockdown, such as personal growth and improved social and family relationships (theme 3). Close relationships, goal setting, and self-care were identified as key coping strategies. These findings expands existing research on the psychological impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and highlighted the important role of third level institutions in promoting students self-efficacy and personal development along with academic achievement.

<li><strong>Attachment, loneliness, and social connection as prospective predictors of suicidal ideation during the COVID-19 pandemic: a relational diathesis-stress experience sampling study</strong> -
<div>
Introduction. Concerns about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health have led to efforts to understand how pandemic-specific factors, such as decreased social contact during periods of social distancing, may relate to suicide risk. The present study evaluated personality-based risk factors and frequency of social contact as prospective predictors of suicidal ideation (SI) during the pandemic. Methods. We tested a relational diathesis-stress model of suicide focusing on insecure attachment, trait loneliness, and social contact as predictors of SI, using twice-weekly survey data collected via smartphone from a community sample (n=184) over eight weeks. Results. Multilevel modeling showed that both trait loneliness and anxious attachment predicted the prospective development of SI during the study period. Reduced in-person contact, but not remote contact, was proximally associated with increased SI. Participants with low attachment anxiety, high attachment avoidance, and high trait loneliness were more likely to develop SI in the context of reduced daily in-person contact compared to participants without these traits. Conclusion. Findings support a relational diathesis-stress model of suicide risk during the pandemic, showing that dispositional traits related to emotional connection with others predicted the relative salience of reduced social contact as a proximal risk factor for SI.

<li><strong>Short-sighted decision-making by those not vaccinated against COVID-19</strong> -
<div>
Widespread vaccination is necessary to minimize or halt the effects of many infectious diseases, including COVID-19. Stagnating vaccine uptake can prolong pandemics, raising the question of how we might predict, prevent, and correct vaccine hesitancy and unwillingness. In a multinational sample (N=4,452) recruited from 13 countries that varied in pandemic severity and vaccine uptake (July 2021), we examined whether short-sighted decision-making as exemplified by steep delay discounting—choosing smaller immediate rewards over larger delayed rewards—predicts COVID-19 vaccination status. Delay discounting was steeper in unvaccinated individuals and predicted vaccination status over and above demographics or mental health. The results suggest that delay discounting, a personal characteristic known to be modifiable through cognitive interventions, is a contributing cause of differences in vaccine compliance.

<li><strong>Reduced social contact and attachment insecurity as predictors of loneliness during COVID-19: a two-month experience sampling study</strong> -
<div>
The impact of reduced social contact on mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic has been identified as a major public health concern. While personality factors such as attachment style have been associated with psychological distress during the pandemic, the longitudinal relevance of these factors and the role of daily social contact in mitigating distress remains poorly understood. This study evaluated the impact of social contact and attachment style on changes in loneliness over an 8-week experience sampling period during the COVID-19 pandemic. A general adult sample (n=184) recruited online completed measures of psychological distress, attachment, and loneliness via smartphone. Loneliness and daily social contact were assessed twice per week for eight weeks, yielding 1,124 unique observations. During the experience sampling period, proximal increases in loneliness were associated with decreased daily in-person contact. In contrast, participants who described themselves as having fewer interactions via text, phone, or videoconferencing, as well as those with higher anxious and avoidant attachment traits, reported greater experiences of loneliness over time. These findings suggest the relevance of both enduring personality characteristics and daily social behaviors as risk factors for loneliness during the pandemic, pointing to potential targets for clinical intervention and future empirical study.

<li><strong>Generalized and behavioral trust: Correlation with nominating close friends in a social network</strong> -
<div>
A social environment, such as relational mobility which represents availability of opportunities to develop new relationships in society, cultivates an individuals psychology or behavior in interpersonal situations and their social network. Generalized trust, which represents trust among people in general, is a psychological tendency to expand individuals social ties in a fluid society. Using the data of 158 students, we analyzed whether an individuals belief of generalized trust measured by a psychological scale, behavioral trust in a Trust Game, and perception of relational mobility affected the social network in which they were embedded. We conducted a survey to assess psychological measures and social networks under the COVID-19 pandemic for first-year university students. After approximately six months, we subsequently conducted the Trust Game for the same students. We found that generalized trust correlated with the number of outdegrees (i.e., the nomination of close friends). In contrast, behavioral trust and the perception of relational mobility were not associated with generalized trust and any social network measures. The results support the argument that the belief of generalized trust functions as an adaptive psychological mechanism to expand individuals relationships in their social networks.

<li><strong>Covid-19 Protective Behaviour Depends on an Interplay of National Policies and Individual Vulnerability: A Cross- Sectional Study of Older Adults in 27 European Countries</strong> -
<div>
Objectives To date, little is known on how policies and individual vulnerability affected the prevalence of protective behaviour. The objective of this study is to examine the effect of policies and individual vulnerability on the prevalence of protective behaviours. Design Data on the individual behaviour in 27 countries come from the “Corona Survey” module of the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe, collected in summer 2020. We considered: (a) never leaving home, (b) never going for a walk, (c) always wearing a face mask in a public space, and (d) never participating in social meetings. Data on policies from the “Our World in Data” database included: (1) stay-at-home restrictions, (2) face coverings policies, and (3) gatherings restrictions. We used the statistical method of multilevel regression. Participants Nationally representative sample of older adults (50 years and over); N=52,061 respondents (58% of women). Results The prevalence of protective behaviours and strictness of policies differed across countries, showing heterogeneity of responses to Covid-19. Stricter policies correlated with a higher prevalence of protective behaviour, but only for two out of four behaviours: stay-at-home policies correlated with avoiding walks, and stricter face-covering policy correlated with always wearing a mask. Vulnerable groups (older people and those in worse health) were more likely to use the protective measures. For social meetings and walks, stricter policies distributed the burden of protective behaviours more equally between more and less vulnerable groups. Conclusions Stricter policies not only increased the propensity of protective behaviour but also reduced social differences in protective behaviours. Our results suggest that visible and not-limiting behaviours responded to policies, whereas less visible and more limiting behaviours reflected individual vulnerability.

<li><strong>Offlinebut not onlineautonomy and competence are associated with lower internalizing symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic among adolescents in Perú</strong> -
<div>
Adolescent developmental tasks, including autonomy and competence, have been disrupted by COVID-19-related lockdowns around the world. In this observational study, we investigate how a sense of subjective autonomy and competence, both online and offline, relate to anxiety and depression during COVID-19 among 2,390 low and middle-income adolescents (11-17 years) in Perú. As we hypothesize, our data indicated that higher offlineand not onlineautonomy and competence were robustly associated with lower internalizing symptoms. While the online sphere might offer opportunities for adolescents to fulfill developmental tasks, we found that virtual experiences—even those that facilitate a sense of autonomy and competence—are insufficient means to cope with the negative effects of physical restrictions in the context of a global pandemic.

<li><strong>The upside: How people make sense of difficulty matters in a crisis</strong> -
<div>
We tested the prediction that how people respond to all-encompassing life difficulties that may require taking on novel difficult tasks or goals is a function of what they infer about their identities from these experiences of difficulty. We focused on the COVID-19 pandemic and identity-based motivation theory to test our predictions (N=698 U.S. adults, three datasets). People were more likely to see silver linings if they endorsed difficulty-as-importance (experienced difficulties with a task/goal as implying its importance) and difficulty-as-improvement (experienced life difficulties as possibly making them better people). Our structural equation models revealed that people who endorsed difficulty-as-importance were more likely to mask, distance, and wash hands in large part because they saw a silver lining for themselves in the pandemic; for difficulty-as-improvement, effects on action were fully mediated by seeing silver linings. Taken together, our results suggest that people apply their difficulty-as-importance and difficulty-as- improvement mindsets to cope with novel life difficulties.

<li><strong>Why COVID-19 vaccination intention is so hard to change: a longitudinal study</strong> -
<div>
While vaccinations are vital to managing pandemics, attitudes toward vaccines are not uniformly positive. During the COVID-19 vaccines development and enrollment phase, we studied the temporal dynamics of COVID-19 vaccination intention in relation to attitudes toward COVID-19 vaccines and the pandemic, vaccination in general, and social norms and trust. The data are derived from a longitudinal survey study with Dutch participants (N = 744; six measurements between December 2020 May 2021) and analyzed with vector-autoregression network analyses. While cross-sectional results indicated that vaccination intention was relatively strongly related to attitudes toward the vaccines, results from temporal analyses showed that vaccination intention mainly predicted and was not predicted by other vaccination- related variables. Vaccination intention thus influences other variables but barely vice versa. This underlines the challenge of stimulating uptake of new vaccines developed during pandemics, and the importance of examining directions of effects in research into vaccination intention.

Rapid studies have highlighted the adverse mental health impact of COVID-19 on health and social care workers (HSCWs).

The ENACT study collected data from HSCWs (n=</div></li>
</ul>
<ol start="1364" type="1">
<li>in Scotland during the third national lockdown. Using a cross-sectional design, participants completed an online survey providing quantitative data and free responses. A multi-method approach to analysis was used. The majority of HSCWs were found to have low wellbeing scores, high levels of COVID-19 stress, worry, burnout and risk perception scores and almost half of HSCWs met the clinical cut off for acute stress. Adaptive coping strategies and increased perceived team resilience helped mitigate against the adverse impact that COVID-19 stressors have on HSCWs mental wellbeing. HSCWs were significantly more likely to seek informal support for dealing with personal or emotional problems. Barriers to formal help-seeking were identified including stigma and fears of consequence of disclosure. HSCWs most valued peer support, workplace supports, visible leadership and teamwork. Our findings illuminate the complexity of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on HSCWs wellbeing and will inform future intervention development to increase positive adaptation amongst staff. Addressing barriers to mental health help-seeking among HSCWs is essential. The implications emphasise the importance of lessons learned across health and social care contexts, planning and preparedness for future pandemics.

<li><strong>Companionship and worries in uncertain times: Australian parents experiences of children and pets during COVID-19</strong> -
<div>
Companion animals (pets), especially cats and dogs, have featured regularly in the media and public discourse during the global COVID-19 pandemic, including increased demand for pet adoption and more time spent with existing pets. This qualitative study aimed to describe the experiences of Australian parents with a child under 18 years and a cat or dog. Within a broader survey, parents were asked open-ended questions about the benefits and challenges for their family of living with a cat or dog during COVID-19, and where relevant, about reasons for adopting a new pet. Data were collected between July and October 2020, during Australias second wave of COVID-19, when some Australians were subject to strict physical distancing or stay at home orders. A total of 611 parents provided at least one free-text response. Inductive template analysis was conducted on all responses; 33 unique codes were identified and mapped onto a biopsychosocial model under three themes: (i) “Trying to Stay Healthy and Well” (biological), (ii) “Comfort, Coping and Worries” (psychological), and “Spending More Time Together” (social). Findings highlight the therapeutic role of pets for families during times of change and uncertainty, as well as the significant social impact of pandemic-related restrictions on family units. Benefits included support for the familys physical and mental health, maintenance of family routines, distraction, comfort, and pets as an opportunity to connect with others. Challenges were numerous and diverse, such as cost and access to pet care, behavioural concerns, worries about pet and child wellbeing, and reflections about the pets mortality. These findings demonstrate the complex and varied impacts of the pandemic on families with children and pets; some families are likely to require ongoing psychological, financial, and veterinary supports.

<li><p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom"><strong>SOCIAL NAVIGATION SYSTEM FOR MOBILE ROBOTS IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT TECHNOLOGY</strong> - The emergency department (ED) is a safety-critical environment in which healthcare workers (HCWs) are overburdened, overworked, and have limited resources, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. One way to address this problem is to explore the use of robots that can support clinical teams, e.g., to deliver materials or restock supplies. However, due to EDs being overcrowded, and the cognitive overload HCWs experience, robots need to understand various levels of patient acuity so they avoid disrupting care delivery. In this invention, we introduce the Safety-Critical Deep Q-Network (SafeDQN) system, a new acuity-aware navigation system for mobile robots. SafeDQN is based on two insights about care in EDs: high-acuity patients tend to have more HCWs in attendance and those HCWs tend to move more quickly. We compared SafeDQN to three classic navigation methods, and show that it generates the safest, quickest path for mobile robots when navigating in a simulated ED environment. We hope this work encourages future exploration of social robots that work in safety-critical, human-centered environments, and ultimately help to improve patient outcomes and save lives.

One thing to keep in mind is that there is a segment of the population that has been exposed to the covid-19 virus and has generated antibodies without developing any significant illnesses and is continuing to be healthy. This indicates that a significant section of the population, even excluding the elderly, lacks the necessary bodily immunity to combat a Viral infection. As terrible as covid-19 is on a global scale, developing personal health standards and preventative measures for any pathogenic virus as a community would have spared many lives. Inthis work, a camera is combined with an image processing system to recognise facial masks, which may be improved in a variety of ways. First and foremost, this method is meant to identify masks on a single persons face. While this method is efficient in identifying someone has a mask, it does not ensure that they will wear it all of the time. The most effective update for this task is to install a camera with a wide field of view so that many individuals can be seen in the frame, and the faces of those who arent wearing markings can be identified, as well as the number of people and the timing. - <a href="https://patentscope.wipo.int/search/en/detail.jsf?docId=IN346889253">link</a></p></li>
