Background: Heart disease is the most prevalent cause of mortality around the world, with estimates up to 80 % being caused by modifiable risk factors. Counterfactual (CF) techniques on machine learning (ML) models based on mixed behavioral and clinical data enable generation of synthetic transitions from healthy to unhealthy (downward) or unhealth...
Aim of the study
To assess how the therapeutic relationship is perceived by therapists both in online and face-to-face therapy during the Covid-19 pandemic and if the therapist's personal, professional, and psychological characteristics, as well as their experience of the COVID-19 pandemic influence their perception of the therapeutic relationship....
The field experiment was conducted to explore in what ways CO 2 labeling impacts customers' product selection. The objective of this study is the connection between eco‐labeling and the number of sales (customers' purchasing choices) made regardless of the price determinant. We performed a controlled investigation within 2 weeks, adding a CO 2 labe...
This research paper delves into the complex relationship between pro-environmental attitudes, dietary preferences, and packaging choices using a Virtual Reality (VR) restaurant scenario. The imperative is to address environmental concerns, particularly plastic waste and greenhouse gas emissions, as they pertain to sectors of the food service sector...
We examined internet searches on psoriasis in Germany and found that in weeks with high search volume, mean temperature and humidity were lower and sunshine level was higher compared to weeks with low search volume.
The importance of finding new, innovative ways of reducing greenhouse gas emissions has received increased attention. Climate labels are a means for this, where the life cycle emissions of a product are often given in combination with an icon. This article surveys the phenomenon of climate labels while varying their design to prompt more sustainabl...
As the food industry accounts for more than one-third of global anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, it is one of the largest contributors to climate change. Strategies for reducing CO2e (equivalent) emissions must be implemented to regulate the impact the food systems have on the climate. Environmental communication using climate labels and sha...
Introduction
Online psychotherapy is a form of work that is becoming more and more popular. Public health problems, such as COVID-19, forced mental health professionals and patients to incorporate new methodologies such as the use of electronic media and internet to provide follow-up, treatment and also supervision. The aim of this study was to inv...

We examined internet searches on psoriasis in Germany and found that in weeks with high search volume, mean temperature and humidity were lower and sunshine level was higher compared to weeks with low search volume.
A mix of guidance and mandated regulations during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic served to reduce the number of social contacts, to ensure distancing in public spaces, and to maintain the isolation of infected individuals. Individual variation in compliance to social distancing in Germany, relating to age, gender, or the presence of pr...
The nutrition industry is characterized by high greenhouse gas emissions, as much as 25–30% of all worldwide climate. Deploying eco-labeling to increase people's awareness about the pollution caused by their dietary choices is being introduced to promote more sustainable consumption. The experiment aimed to explore the effectiveness of different ec...
Purpose
As the food industry accounts for more than one-third of global anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, it is one of the single largest contributors to climate change. Strategies for reductions of CO2e (equivalent) emissions must be put in place to regulate the impact the food systems have on the climate Environmental communication using cl...
Background: Those with diabetes were at a higher risk of experiencing severe illness in the event of contracting COVID-19. Did they therefore act more cautiously?
Method: The Imperial ‘COVID-19 Behavioural Tracker’ details the results of regular surveying on attitudes surrounding COVID-19 guidance. Results from UK participants to questions reflect...
The COVID19 pandemic has caused a large number of infections and fatalities, causing administrations at various levels to limit public mobility. This paper analyzes the complex association between the stringency of restrictions, public mobility, and reproduction rate (R-value) on a national level for Germany. The goals were to analyze; a) the corre...
The COVID19 pandemic has caused a large number of infections and fatalities, causing administrations at various levels to use different policy measures to reduce viral spread by limiting public mobility. This paper analyzes the complex association between the stringency of restrictions, public mobility, and reproduction rate (R-value) on a national...
Background
Those with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) were at a higher risk of experiencing severe illness in the event of contracting COVID-19. Did they therefore act more cautiously?
Aim
The aim was to determine whether the condition of COPD incurred significant change in social distancing behavior compared to the general public.

The Covid-19 pandemic has brought the World to a near standstill for most of 2020 and 2021, causing chaos in international travel, driving many economies into the ground, particularly those largely based on tourism. The lack of standard tools to assist decision makers in structuring a coherent policy to allow foreign passengers into their county an...
