Aims: To gain insight and understanding into the workplace experiences of nurses living with mental illness (independent of their work) through exploring the relevant literature. Objectives: (1) To learn what unique contribution (negative or positive) they have for the profession. (2) To review this literature as a means of optimising the nurses’ ability to perform their nursing duties when their mental illness necessitates additional support.
There has been an increase in the number of UK university students disclosing mental health conditions in recent years. This dataset informed a paper that describes the evaluation of the Mind Tutor app, an artificial intelligence based wellbeing app specifically designed for first year undergraduate students, which included a chatbot function that guided students to relevant wellbeing content. The content of the app was developed based on data about mental health and wellbeing issues reported by students and focussed on anxiety, low mood, academic study, transition to university and relationships. Two randomised controlled evaluation studies were conducted with N = 177 and N = 240 first year undergraduate students from two UK universities (the second due to delays in development work and difficulties with recruitment in the first trial). The Mind Tutor had no significant impact on student wellbeing. The study suffered from poor recruitment and retention rates. However, further research is warranted to underst…
The poster represents a summary of a larger work on drug policy, specifically cannabis. It acknowledges the fact that the war on drugs is perpetuated through prohibitionist measures and proposes alternatives considering organised crime realm, public health and the people affected by the ongoing battle.
First, in cyber security, machine learning is becoming increasingly significant. The main goal of implementing machine learning is to improve detection of malware over conventional methods, which rely on human interaction, by making it more actionable, scalable, and efficient. Machine learning problems in the cyber security field call for effective scientific and theoretical management. Machine learning and statistical techniques such as deep learning, support vector machines, and Bayesian classification have shown promise in combating cyberattacks. Identifying biases and perceptions hidden in network data and creating corresponding data-driven machine learning models to thwart these cyberattacks is essential to creating intelligent security systems. Various countries, organizations, and banking firms are attempting to fully implement virtual and online banking systems. The main and very important issue is of securing the transactions with strong privacy. A high level of responsibility, integrity, and confide…
In 2014, Microsoft revealed their very own virtual assistant Cortana who helps users to manage their time. However, users familiar with the Halo franchise will recognise her as the female AI that follows the player throughout the game, demonstrating how the representation of female AI can impact technology. Since Frit’s lang’s Metropolis, female AI has been represented as a subservient servant, existing to further the will of the men who has created her. This representation has become so prevalent that it is embedded into our phones, with Siri and Google having a distinct feminine presence always there to help. While literature for film and TV exists to explore the ramifications of this portrayal, there is limited knowledge in exploring the narratives of video games despite their capacity to influence technology. To further explore this, the female AI represented in Portal 2 and Doki-Doki Literature club will be examined to see if they challenge the notion of a submissive servant. The first chapter will …
