Highlights • Mandates standardised protocols for the publication of DNA transfer and recovery data to ensure consistency • Requires open-sharing of non-allelic experimental and casework data in accessible formats to build a databank. • Specifies use of fully continuous probabilistic genotyping and NIST …

Self-Determination Theory (SDT) has been widely applied in sports coaching research, encompassing both basic psychological need (BPN)–supportive (bright side) and BPN–thwarting (dark side) coaching behaviours. This paper focuses on the bright side by systematically reviewing and meta-analysing SDT-based …

Background and aim. Research highlights that poor workspace variety, poor zoning, and limited personalization can reduce comfort, privacy, and focus in hybrid environments. This study aims to anticipate these challenges and to develop and evaluate participatory design interventions for user-centred, …

Background and Aim. Many patients experience anxiety during hospitalization. Hospital environments can support patients with the mitigation of anxiety. The aim of this study was to gain a better understanding of which design elements can affect sense of control, social support, and positive distraction, …

Digital forensic scientists primarily rely on individual internal reasoning and categorical conclusions when evaluating evidence in casework. This can make it difficult to maintain structured reasoning that is logically sound, balanced, robust, and transparent. Trojan horse defense cases exemplify these …

INTRODUCTION: Physical Activity (PA) is essential for enhancing the physical function of pre-frail and frail older adults. However, among this group, PA-levels vary significantly. Identifying the factors contributing to these differences could support tailored PA interventions. This study aims to examine …

The Quality Cost Indicator (QCI) model supports value-based health care at the institutional level, by calculating disease-specific health outcomes per unit cost over time. The aim of this study was to adapt the QCI model for specialized burn care (the BC-QCI model) and explore its utilization using …

Residential burglaries often go unsolved, as collected DNA traces and fingermarks frequently originate from residents rather than the offender. It is therefore important to know how to target sampling locations that specifically relate to the burglary event. However, data that aid in assessing the likelihood …

This paper investigates how visual cues—also known as nudges—can be systematically evaluated for their effectiveness in influencing player navigation within virtual reality (VR) environments. The research aims to establish a structured approach for testing and comparing visual nudges by observing player …
