Abstract:
Goal Attainment Scaling is an assessment instrument to evaluate interventions on the basis of individual, patient-specific goals. The attainment of these goals is mapped in a pre-specified way to attainment levels on an ordinal scale, which is common to all goals. This approach is patient-centred and allows one to integrate the outcomes of patients with very heterogeneous symptoms. The latter is of particular importance in clinical trials in rare diseases because it enables larger sample sizes by including a broader patient population. In this paper, we focus on the statistical analysis of Goal Attainment Scaling outcomes for the comparison of two treatments in randomised clinical trials. Building on a general statistical model, we investigate the properties of different hypothesis testing approaches. Additionally, we propose a latent variable approach to generate Goal Attainment Scaling data in a simulation study, to assess the impact of model parameters such as the number of goals per patient and their correlation, the choice of discretisation thresholds and the type of design (parallel group or cross-over). Based on our findings, we give recommendations for the design of clinical trials with a Goal Attainment Scaling endpoint. Furthermore, we discuss an application of Goal Attainment Scaling in a clinical trial in mastocytosis.

Abstract:
Abstract Family-centered Function-focused Care (Fam-FFC) works with family caregivers as care partners in the assessment, function-promoting goal setting, implementation, and evaluation of goal attainment during hospitalization and immediate post-acute period. ANCOVA technique examined the preliminary impact of Fam-FFC upon 30-day hospital readmissions and logistic regression tested the association of goal attainment, measured with the Goal Attainment Scale (GAS) with 30-day hospital readmissions. The majority of the patients were Black (50%), female (62%), had a mean age of 81.6 (SD=8.4), mean Barthel Index of 60.29 (SD=27.7), and mean MoCA of 10.67 (SD=7.0). Goals represented six main categories: mobility, cognition, self-care, toileting, sleep, and pain management. Patients in the intervention group had less 30-day hospitalizations (F= 4.6, p=.033) and goal attainment was significantly associated with less recidivism (B=.179, Wald= 2.8 (1), p= .045). FamFFC shows promise in reducing 30-day hospital readmissions; results support the contribution of family engagement and use of GAS

Abstract:
Background/aims Stroke early supported discharge services were introduced to provide a comprehensive stroke specialist therapy input, while reducing cost of acute care. Early supported discharge services resulted in better health-related outcomes. A consensus has not yet been established regarding specific early supported discharge patient characteristics and clinical profile. The main aim of this study was to establish evidence to support the development of an early supported discharge patient profile (demographics and clinical) and eligibility criteria to enable early supported discharge services achieve their purposes of reducing post-stroke disability and institutionalisation rates. This article outlines the relationship between early supported discharge patients' clinical profiles and clinical outcomes, in terms of disability, goal attainment and institutionalisation rates. Methods A retrospective review of data was implemented to determine whether specific early supported discharge patients' clinical profiles and characteristics correlate with clinical outcomes. Data were collected for patients admitted to the Suffolk Stroke Early Supported Discharge Service between August and October 2016, comprising patients' demographics and clinical profiles, including stroke type, Barthel Index and Modified Rankin Scale. Performance data were collected at the end of the early supported discharge service including therapy frequency and intensity, as well as clinical outcomes including the Goal Attainment Scale. Results Data were collected for 53 patients. Data were analysed for all patients in three groups: goals not achieved; goals achieved; and goals achieved to a higher level), according to the Goal Attainment Scale. A Chi-square test showed no significant difference with regard to sex and stroke side (P=0.27). Analysis of variance revealed no significant difference in age. Conversely, results showed a significant association between goal attainment and the stroke subtype, severity and length of hospital stay. Conclusions Specific clinical characteristics and disease profiles correlate with functional outcomes and could influence goal attainment and functional status. A specific patient cohort seems to benefit the most from early supported discharge services in terms of optimised functional outcomes and recovery.

Abstract:
Introduction: Identification and attainment of the goals of cancer patients is an important aspect of personalized treatment. Aim of the study: The study aimed to assess the following aspects in patients treated surgically for endometrial cancer: 1) level of satisfaction with hospitalization using the EORTC IN-PATSAT32 nomothetic questionnaire; 2) degree of goals attainment using the Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS) idiographic questionnaire; 3) correlation between these evaluation methods. Material and method: The study included 123 patients with endometrial cancer (FIGO I–II) treated surgically at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in Rzeszów in 2012–2014. EORTC IN-PATSAT32 and GAS questionnaires were used. The collected material was analyzed using the Statistica 10.0 software. Results: The overall level of satisfaction measured with the IN-PATSAT32 scale was 72.2 ± 20.5. The technical skills were rated the highest in nurses (74.5 ± 17.6) and doctors (69.3 ± 17.8), while the lowest score was awarded for hospital assess (54.7 ± 23.3). The overall satisfaction with care was 72.2 ± 20.5. In the personalized GAS scale, the patients listed individual expectations before the surgery, assigning ranks to their importance. For most of them, it was a very high (A) or high (B) rank. The patients assigned the highest ranks to quick mobilization, success of the operation, and willingness to be healthy. The average value of the level of goal attainment on the discharge date was 63.7 ± 9.4 points. Statistically significant correlations between the questionnaires were found for the level of goal attainment and the assessment of various aspects of hospital care. Conclusions: The study proved that the EORTC IN-PATSAT32 questionnaire was correlated with GAS questionnaire, and additionally provided knowledge about individual goals of care and the degree of their attainment. The use of nomothetic and idiographic tools gives wider possibilities in the planning and implementation of personalized care.

Abstract:
AbstractThe main vehicle in the UN-NGO dynamic is the consultative status program within the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). Existing literature addresses UN efforts in facilitating formal collaboration with international civil society, but little research has been undertaken to examine macro-scale patterns of NGOs within such collaborations. This study sought to partly address the latter gap in the literature by examining NGO goals and goal/benefit attainment within the UN-ECOSOC consultative status program. The results of a survey sent to a random sample of 10% of all NGOs holding consultative status revealed that (1) a varied range of both extrinsic and intrinsic considerations motivated NGOs to acquire consultative status; (2) NGOs commonly were not achieving their initial goals or otherwise not deriving benefit from the collaboration; and (3) the degree/sense of goal or benefit attainment correlated strongly with the level of accreditation afforded to NGOs, with lower levels of consultative status usually corresponding to lower reported levels of goal/benefit attainment.

Abstract:
This study utilizes a multivariate, correlational, expost facto research design to examine Parsons’ “sick role” as a dynamic, time-sensitive process of “sick role” and “recovery role” and the impact of this process on goal attainment (H1) and psychosocial distress (H2) of adult survivors of acquired brain injury. Measures used include the Brief Symptom Inventory-18, a Goal Attainment Scale, and an original instrument to measure sick role process. 60 survivors of ABI enrolled in community reentry rehabilitation participated. Stepwise regression analyses did not fully support the multivariate hypotheses. Two models emerged from the stepwise analyses. Goal attainment, gender, and postrehab responsibilities accounted for 40% of the shared variance of psychosocial distress. Anxiety and depression accounted for 22% of the shared variance of goal attainment with anxiety contributing to the majority of the explained variance. Bivariate analysis found sick role variables, anxiety, somatization, depression, gender, and goal attainment as significant. The study has implications for ABI rehabilitation in placing greater emphasis on sick role processes, anxiety, gender, and goal attainment in guiding program planning and future research with survivors of ABI.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between active procrastination, self-regulated learning and academic achievement. Participants included 108 undergraduate students enrolled in a first-year elective course at a Canadian university. Students reported their level of active procrastination, cognitive and metacognitive strategy use, self-efficacy for learning and performance, goal quality and self-reported goal attainment over the semester. Measures included the self-report Active Procrastination Scale (APS; Choi & Moran, 2009), the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ; Pintrich Smith, Garcia, & McKeachie, 1991) and weekly reflections. Findings revealed: (a) active procrastination was significantly positively related to academic achievement, (b) the ability to meet deadlines was the component of active procrastination most related to SRL variables, and (c) self-reported goal attainment accounted for the most variance in ability to meet deadlines score. Further research is needed to explore the central role of ability to meet deadlines in active procrastination and the order in which SRL variables, active procrastination and negative influence of procrastination predict academic achievement.

Abstract:
This chapter covers the multiple measures currently used to assess hope theory. Hope, as theorized by Snyder and colleagues, was originally determined to be a global construct measuring agency and pathways toward goal attainment. Using much of the original theory, hope research has expanded, resulting in multiple measures across different applications and domains. By exploring the context specificity, these scales have been shown to consistently predict outcomes across differing domains, supporting the reliability and validity of new hope measurement. It is anticipated that with more specific hope measurement, the more accurate hope assessment and intervention can become. Concepts covered in this chapter include academic hope, math hope, writing hope, work hope, children’s hope, employment hope, and state hope.

Abstract:
AbstractEducational efforts and achievement in an individual’s youth influence their life-long social status and quality of life. Historically, higher education’s teaching relied on passive learning of hour’s long monologues delivered in person. This system puts in clear disadvantage and reduces the quality of life of many students who cannot attend lectures or keep up with the pace of learning. Fortunately, the current technology-led paradigm shift in undergraduate teaching and learning, addresses these challenges.Here we investigated: (1) what are the current assessment methods for cognitive state, memory and learning in healthy populations? (2) What types of platforms and tools offer alternative ways of learning and interacting in classrooms?; How can these platforms (3) support assessment of students’ cognitive state and learning process? and (4) support students with specific needs? To answer (1), we conducted scoping review on the current instruments and scales.; for (2) we interviewed digital learners, researchers, and faculty and created a list of platforms and tools, which were further analyzed to answer the last questions.We found that digital tools allow students to: (a) access course material remotely, (b) engage with classmates in groups/forums (c) work collaboratively on shared documents and (d) provide feedback and communicate anonymously with classmates and lecturers during and/or after lectures.We show that, while learning platforms and tools can adapt learning to the students’ abilities, learners and lectures require additional training/paradigm shift to fully benefit. We present results and discuss design implications for technologies, which, could boost learning and attainment of educational goals, particularly for “non-traditional” learners.

Abstract:
Many of Queen’s episodic songs from the 1970s present unique structural templates, ranging from compound to through-composed forms, to irregular patterns of repetition. This chapter seeks to identify underlying principles across these diverse formal plans, using the concept of musical time—the nature of successive musical events across a song. It is argued that Queen’s large-scale songs tend to present multiple temporal states across different spans of the song. At a local level, phrases tend to be highly goal-directed; at sectional levels, the sense of goal orientation is weakened, while retaining the impression of musical momentum. At the ends of songs, there is often some form of reprise or musical arrival, which is undercut by gestures that resist the attainment of closure. Queen’s large-scale songs thus feel like an ongoing and continuous musical journey, often into unpredictable territory, and one which comes to a temporary halt, rather than a complete end.

Abstract:
Pervasiveness of technology in the digital age has affected education generally and is fundamentally transforming assessment, causing changes in traditional educational settings, like learning taking place anywhere, anytime and in real-world context. In such an environment, emphasis is put on what is to be seen as effective assessment in a smart learning environment (SLE). Through a case chapter examines the process of electronic marking and how it enhances smart learning practices. Drawing on the technology acceptance model, the meaning and process of e-marking in enhancing smart learning is presented. Features and process of e-marking and it's perceived benefits and barriers are described. From the reported experiences of engagement in the e-marking process; it is found out that e-marking is increasingly becoming important and dependable in enhancing smart learning. Findings also indicate that in contexts where e-marking is thriving, it started as a small project, with a few scripts marked electronically and then gradually gets up scaled into a full practice. It is concluded that e-marking is an intervention that is key in the assessment of large classes in large classes, that will contribute to the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goal number four- ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education and promoting lifelong learning opportunities for all.

Abstract:
Abstract Gender equality in the energy sector is still a challenge for the timely attainment of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 5 on empowering women. To enable solutions roadmaps, the UN Expert Group on Resource Management launched "Women in Resource Management" in April 2019. This paper summarizes the initiative's progress to date and how it maneuvered through the pandemic, delivering several quick wins benefitting women in oil and gas, geothermal, and mining. The initiative focuses on the energy sector (Oil & Gas, Renewables, Mining). As per the UNECE - Gender 2020 annual report, "The Women in Resource Management aims to determine achievable, global outreach goals to explore how resource management can help attain SDG 5, recognizing the importance to provide women and girls with, inter alia, equal access to education and decent work, and that their representation in economic decision-making processes will fuel sustainable economies and benefit societies". Work done till May 2021 includes:Review of a series of resource management projects to evaluate challenges and opportunities in enhancing performance from the perspective of gender.Selection of cases and country-specific study cases that exemplify how SDG 5 aims could be applied in resource management. The initiative deliverables and timeline for the future include:Dialogues on policy, aimed to boost gender participation in resource managementA network of women engaged in resource management projectsWebinars with global outreachIssue recommendations for the consideration and incrementing the participation of gender in resource management A comparison of critical elements considered diagnostic for women's empowerment such as female workforce percentages, participation of women in leadership and technical roles across several segments of resource management will be assessed per region with a global outlook. Other indicators valuable for the proposed assessment will be shared in this paper covering communication programmes and tools, empowerment and knowledge-sharing workshops, strategies and frameworks to increase active participation and awareness of women and men on the importance of gender equality for the sustainability of the energy sector. The initiative's roadmap was shared to collectively join efforts in an initiative that needs to compel the related organizations and stakeholders to generate step-changing actions to attain SDG 5 by 2030 and fully benefit from the impacts of diversity and inclusion in resource management, which benefit the sector. The participation of women in technical, organizational and leadership roles in resource management is imperative to ensure the sustainability of the energy sector in actionable paths. The roadmap and quick wins shared in this paper will inspire governmental, private, not-for-profit, multilateral, and other organizations dealing with the complex objective of incrementing the participation of women in resource management. The pursuit of gender equality strategies enables the success of SDG 5, especially if done with a collaborative effort that creates social and economic value at a global scale. Immediate objectives of the future activities of this initiative are to shape teams to address and advance research, communication of best practices and opportunities in mining (minerals and U/To resources), Oil and Gas, Renewables (including groundwater) and Public Sector and Talent Development.

Abstract:
This paper describes the concept and benefits of the fuel moisturization system for the GE H System™ steam-cooled industrial gas turbine. The DLN2.5H combustion system and fuel moisturization system are both described, along with the influence of fuel moisture on combustor performance as measured during full-scale, full-pressure rig testing of the DLN2.5H combustion system. The lean, premixed DLN2.5H combustion system was targeted to deliver single-digit NOx and CO emissions from 40% to 100% combined cycle load in both the Frame 7H (60 Hz) and Frame 9H (50 Hz) heavy-duty industrial gas turbines. These machines are also designed to yield a potential combined-cycle efficiency of 60 percent or higher. Fuel moisturization contributes to the attainment of both the NOx and the combined-cycle efficiency performance goals, as discussed in this paper.
