Surveys

16.6K
Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Methods for Image-based Surveys of Benthic Macroinvertebrates and Their Habitat Exemplified by the Drop Camera Survey for the Atlantic Sea Scallop

10.1K
Image based surveying is an increasingly practical, non-invasive method to sample the marine environment. We present the protocol of a drop camera survey that estimates the abundance and distribution of the Atlantic sea scallop (Placopecten magellanicus). We discuss how this protocol can be generalized for application to other benthic...

Nursing organizations assume a significant role in consistently developing the nursing profession through education, research studies, establishing practice standards, and reforming health policies. Typically, nursing organizations operate at the regional, national, and international levels. For example, the International Council of Nurses (ICN) represents more than 28 million nurses worldwide. In contrast, the American Nurses Association (ANA) is a membership organization representing nurses...

Introduction to Surveying, Plane Surveying and Geodetic Surveys

996
Surveying is the art and science of mapping the earth's surface. It involves measuring distances, angles in horizontal or vertical directions, and levels to understand the shape and size of land features. Surveying techniques are essential for various tasks, such as identifying the levels of a land area with reference to a specific point, and mapping undulations and water bodies.There are two main types of surveying: plane surveys and geodetic surveys. Plane surveys assume the earth is flat,...

Tree Survey: Point-Centered Quarter Sampling Method

50.8K
A number of methods are available for sampling forest communities. Point-centered quarter is one such method. It is used to gather information on the density, frequency, and coverage of tree species found in a forest. This information provides the ability to estimate the number of individual trees encountered, how often a certain tree occurs, how common the tree is compared to other trees, and the size of the tree. Compared to the standard plot analysis, the point-centered quarter method is...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Pediatric Dentistry
  • Dental Public Health

Background:

  • School-based fluoride varnish (FV) programs are crucial for preventive pediatric dental care.
  • Understanding the current landscape of these programs is essential for their optimization.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify and describe existing school-based FV programs targeting K-12 students in the United States.
  • To gather information on program characteristics, implementation, and associated dental services.

Main Methods:

  • A 2016 cross-sectional study using an online, self-administered survey.
  • Programs were identified through public health directories, including the Association of State and Territorial Dental Directors.
  • The survey collected data on program description, assessment, and process.

Main Results:

  • 40 school-based FV programs were identified across 27 states, with a 61% response rate.
  • Approximately 85% of responding programs integrate FV application into existing school health services.
  • Dental sealants on permanent teeth were the most common additional procedure (92%), with FV applied annually (33%) or biannually (28%).

Conclusions:

  • The study highlights the prevalence and characteristics of school-based FV programs in the US.
  • There is a need for evidence-based guidelines to enhance the cost-effectiveness and continuity of these vital public health interventions.
