Abstract:
IntroductionCurrently, there are very few published studies on preinjury and postinjury assessments of quality of life (QoL) based on a prospective appraisal; specifically, knowledge of those who do not seek medical care following injury is lacking. To close these knowledge gaps, this study aims to identify the psychosocial consequences in terms of loss of QoL following injury in a Swedish population and to investigate the response shift in retrospective measures of self-reported QoL.Methods and analysisWe will analyse preinjury and postinjury (including both minor and severe unintentional injuries as well as different injury mechanisms) assessments of QoL, including the phenomenon of response shift, using register-based data from the nationwide collaboration project LifeGene, which includes over 52 000 individuals living in Sweden. In addition to LifeGene data, a short online survey including a ‘ThenTest’ questionnaire, that is, comparison of previous QoL to current using EuroQoL five-dimensional questionnaire, was sent out to the participants of LifeGene. This study will provide a unique opportunity to study the changes in QoL by comparing preinjury and postinjury assessments using a prospective appraisal, both for populations who have sought medical care as well as those who have not due to their injury. Similarly, the study will also assess the response shift in retrospective measures of QoL. This information can guide the next generation of QoL measures and interventions for those suffering injuries and have an impact on how to interpret evaluations of interventions.Ethics and disseminationThe study has been reviewed and approved by the Regional Ethical Review Board in Stockholm, Sweden (case number 2018/352-31). The results will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journals, conference presentations, print media and internet and via a report for the funding agency.

Abstract:
Dominical categories are categories in which the notions of partial morphisms and their domains become explicit, with the latter being endomorphisms rather than subobjects of their sources. These categories form the basis for a novel abstract formulation of recursion theory, to which the present paper is devoted. The abstractness has of course its usual concomitant advantage of generality: it is interesting to see that many of the fundamental results of recursion theory remain valid in contexts far removed from their classic manifestations. A principal reason for introducing this new formulation is to achieve an algebraization of the generalized incompleteness theorem, by providing a category-theoretic development of the concepts and tools of elementary recursion theory that are inherent in demonstrating the theorem.Dominical recursion theory avoids the commitment to sets and partial functions which is characteristic of other formulations, and thus allows for an intrinsic recursion theory within such structures as polyadic algebras. It is worthy of notice that much of elementary recursion theory can be developedwithout referencetoelements.By Gödel's generalized incompleteness theorem for consistent arithmetical systemTwe mean any statement of the following sort:(1) if every recursive set is definable inT, thenTis essentially undecidable [41]; or(2) if all recursive functions are definable inT, thenTis essentially undecidable [41]; or(3) if every recursive set is definable inT, thenT0andR0(the sets of Gödel numbers of the theorems and refutables ofT) are recursively inseparable [39]; or(4) if all re sets are representable inT, thenT0is creative [28], [39]; or(5) ifTis a Rosser theory (i.e., all disjoint re sets are strongly separable inT), thenT0andR0are effectively inseparable [39].

Study of cultural values and political life of the community in Riau Malay, which is believed to beable to support the application of the principles of democracy at the local level. This is consideredimportant because of the values and culture that lives and grows a reflection of power relationsbetween individuals, groups, social institutions, and governments in the region that has lasted along time.Political system and democratic governance requires the participation of all citizens in thepolitical process is important. On this basis, the research interest in restoring the values andculture of the Malay community, which will be explored from theoretical perspectives - normativeand empirical, both in the kingdom, independence, and decentralization (regional autonomy)today, in order to understand the knowledge local power relations and their implications for thedemocratic process that relies on the framework and capabilities fikir society itself.In this research, emphasis will be devoted to the use of qualitative methods. The data analysistechnique used the descriptive analysis. As a non-statistical analysis techniques, in addition topresenting information and facts for what it is, a description and interpretation of the data, tables,graphs, or figures are available is also a typical sharpness of this method of analysis. Analysis willalso be preceded by exposition and explanation of empirical facts (deductive) that relate directlyto this study. In addition, empirical facts will also conceptualized with the theory which is thentested in a rational (inductive).Keywords: Power Relations, Political Life, Malay Society, Democracy and local domains

Abstract:
Background Health education programs that are aimed at improving individuals' skills to self-manage are increasingly recognised as a critical component of chronic disease management. Despite the apparent need for such interventions, current studies show inconsistent results regarding program effectiveness, with meta-analyses indicating only marginal effects for some disease groups. A closer examination of these studies however suggests that the magnitude and inconsistency of the findings may be related to the types of outcomes that were assessed rather than specific disease groups. Where self-report measures were used, results tended to be smaller and inconsistent. It is therefore possible that current studies do not adequately reflect program effects because self-report outcomes have a high risk to be confounded by a range of potential biases. Objective The aim of this thesis was to identify and quantify the potential influence of biases in the measurement of change in chronic disease self-management interventions using self-report. Methods The research design targeted the processes that individuals undergo when filling out questionnaires and whether this has an influence on their self-report outcomes. This was achieved by developing a three-group research design. The Health Education Impact Questionnaire (heiQ) was used to collect outcomes data. While pretest questionnaires were identical across groups, three questionnaire versions were randomly distributed at posttest. One of the groups filled out traditional posttest questions (n=331), whereas the other two groups were asked to provide data in addition to posttest questions, with one group providing transition questions (n=304) and one providing retrospective pretest data (n=314). Resulting datasets were further examined for possible confounding effects through response shift and social desirability bias. Through the random allocation of the heiQs it was ensured that data were not influenced by potential intra-group effects. Results The thesis revealed that the design of the posttest questionnaire significantly influenced people's ratings of their posttest levels. In particular, when participants were asked to provide ratings of their retrospective pretest levels in addition to their posttest levels, the latter scores were significantly higher than those of participants who did not perform this additional task. Subsequent analyses however suggested that these differences could neither be explained by response shift nor by social desirability bias. Conclusions This research has provided important insight into the measurement of outcomes of chronic disease self-management interventions. While the threat to the validity of traditional pretest-posttest data due to confounding effects through response shift and social desirability biases could not be supported, the thesis has highlighted that the cognitive task that subjects are asked to perform when providing data at posttest significantly influenced their self-reported outcomes. Given that previous research has predominantly focused on other aspects of validity - such as applying control group designs to circumvent common threats to internal and external validity - this study suggests that more attention must be paid to the design of questionnaires. The thesis concludes that further research, in particular into the influence of cognitive tasks on obtained scores, is important to improve the interpretation of self-report outcomes data derived from participants of self-management interventions.
