A Stochastic Simulation Model of Alarm Response Strategies on a Telemetry Floor
<p>The large quantity of alarms characteristic of clinical settings have resulted in nursing staff suffering from a phenomenon termed ‘alarm fatigue’. Alarm fatigue is desensitization via habituation – as these commonly heard noises cause caregivers to have delayed or no response to alarms. Alarm …

Predator recognition and anti-predator behavior in juvenile Asian carp
… as well as how adaptive and plastic are these responses. To achieve these objectives, I performed three separate studies that aimed to define the alarm response of these fishes, assess how group composition may influence the alarm response, and determine if the response could be generalized …

Examining the role of hardiness, race-related stress, and racial identity on psychological health outcomes of black college students
… replication attempts, the anticipatory body alarm response subscale of race-related stress on trait anxiety was moderated by the immersion-emersion anti-White subscale of racial identity. Participants who were high in anti-White attitudes and high on anticipatory body alarm response reported …

NEURAL MECHANISMS SUPPORTING COGNITIVE INFLUENCES ON SUPRASPINAL NOCICEPTIVE PROCESSING: INSIGHTS FROM BRAIN LESIONS
… behaviorally relevant while avoiding unnecessary alarm response to noxious stimuli that are of less potential danger. Accordingly, these dynamic interactions may be important in shaping a complete subjective experience of pain and may contribute to the large interindividual differences in pain …

A cognitive human behaviour model for pedestrian behaviour simulation
… conditions on the pedestrians’ behaviour in response to a potential alarm event. In this thesis, a framework is developed for modelling advanced individual pedestrian behaviours and especially purpose-driven environment usage. The framework thereby aims to assist building and facility …

Mapping the Brain of the Clonal Raider Ant: Integrating Behavior, Neuroanatomy and Connectomics
… glands to communicate. For example, ants release alarm pheromones in response to danger to alert their nestmates and to trigger behavioral alarm responses. Despite extensive behavioral studies, the neurobiological mechanisms underlying these behaviors are not well understood. The clonal raider …

The Bridging Technique: Crossing Over the Modality Shifting Effect
Operator responsiveness to critical alarm/alert display systems must rely on faster and safer behavioral responses in order to ensure mission success in complex environments such as the operator station of an Unmanned Aerial System (UAS). An important design consideration for effective UAS …

Unlikely Friendships - An Exploratory Review into the Defining Criteria of Associative Behaviour between Vertebrate Species
… activities together such as foraging, resting, alarm response and general interactions for a prolonged duration within proportionally close proximity of each other. Primates:PSA studies often record associative behaviour occurrence beyond the expected ‘chance encounters’ and describe strong …

Using Motion-Triggered Cameras to Estimate Habitat Use by Collared Peccaries
… camera stations, (2) whether peccaries were alarmed by the presence of MTC, (3) the minimum distance needed between camera stations to obtain independent data, and (4) the proportion of landscape occupied by peccaries at 1, 2, 3, and 4-week intervals in order to estimate the probability of …

Quantifying human performance during passenger ship evacuation
… ships, particularly as it relates to passengers’ alarm response time, the influence of response time distributions on total assembly time predicted by the evacuation model maritimeEXODUS, passenger movement onboard during the assembly process, and methods for validation of evacuation models in …
