USING MECHANICAL TURK TO RECRUIT PARTICIPANTS FOR INTERNET INTERVENTION RESEARCH: EXPERIENCE FROM RECRUITMENT FOR FOUR TRIALS TARGETING HAZARDOUS ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION

Abstract Background Mechanical Turk (MTurk) is an online portal operated by Amazon where ‘requesters’ (individuals or businesses) can submit jobs for ‘workers.’ MTurk Baggies is used extensively by academics as a quick and cheap means of collecting questionnaire data, including information on alcohol consumption, from a diverse sample of pa

Abstract Objective: Recently, the decellularization technique is introduced as one of the tissue engineering procedures for the treatment of various deficiencies.Here, we aimed to assess the dynamic activity of CCs and HUVECs within decellularized bovine ovarian tissue transplanted subcutaneously in rats.Ovarian tissue Hardware was decellularized u

Plastic, the most common type of marine trash is found in our oceans and lakes.In a period Baggies of few decenniums since the mass production of plastic, in the 1950s, the debris of plastic has piled up in terrestrial environments, open oceans, on the banks of the most secluded islands and in the deep sea.The durability of plastic is estimated fro

Urban development and climate change are two main impacting factors in the thermal environment of cities.This study aims to analyze future changes in Mean Radiant Temperature (MRT), one of the main contributors to human thermal comfort and the concept of Urban Heat Island (UHI), considering climate change and urban development scenarios in the stud

Abstract Background During the evolutionary radiation of Crustacea, several lineages in this taxon convergently succeeded in meeting the physiological challenges connected to establishing a fully terrestrial life style.These physiological adaptations include the need for sensory organs of terrestrial species to function in air rather than in water.
