Abstract: Demographic crashes due to emerging diseases can contribute to population fragmentation and increase extinction risk of small populations. Ebola outbreaks in 2002-2004 are suspected to have caused a decline of more than 80% in some Western lowland gorilla (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) populations. We investigated whether demographic indicators of this event allowed for the detection of spatial fragmentation in gorilla populations. We collected demographic data from two neighbouring populations: the Lokoué population, suspected to have been affected by an Ebola outbreak (followed from 2001 to 2014), and the Romani population, of unknown demographic status before Ebola outbreaks (followed from 2005 to 2014). Ten years after the outbreak, the Lokoué population is slowly recovering and the short-term demographic indicators of a population crash were no longer detectable. The Lokoué population has not experienced any additional demographic perturbation over the past decade. The Romani population did not show any of the demographic indicators of a population crash over the past decade. Its demographic structure remained similar to that of unaffected populations. Our results highlighted that the Ebola disease could contribute to fragmentation of gorilla populations due to the spatially heterogeneous impact of its outbreaks. The demographic structure of populations (i.e., age-sex and group structure) can be useful indicators of a possible occurrence of recent Ebola outbreaks in populations without known history, and may be more broadly used in other emerging disease/species systems. Longitudinal data are critical to our understanding of the impact of emerging diseases on wild populations and their conservation.

Abstract: To identify final‐year undergraduate students and new graduate nurses’ behavioural intentions towards medication safety across four countries. Medication errors are a common and avoidable occurrence, being costly for not only patients but also for health systems and society. A multi‐site cross‐sectional study. A self‐administered survey was distributed to students and new graduate nurses in South Africa, India, Turkey and Australia. Descriptive statistics were calculated for all survey items. Multiple linear regressions were performed to predict behavioural intentions using the three Theory of Planned Behaviour constructs: attitudes, behavioural control and subjective norms. This study adheres to the STROBE guidelines. Data were analysed for 432 students and 576 new graduate nurses. Across all countries, new graduate nurses reported significantly higher scores on all the TPB variables compared with student nurses. Attitudes towards medication management were found significantly and positively related to intention to practice safe medication management for both student and new graduate nurses. Total perceived behavioural control was significantly and negatively related to intention to practice safe medication management for students. Student and new graduate nurses showed favourable attitude, subjective norm, perceived behaviour control and intention in practising medication safety. However, differences in countries require further exploration on the factors influencing attitudes towards medication safety among student nurses and new nurse graduates. Understanding student and new graduate nurses’ medication administration practices is important to inform strategies aimed at improving patient safety. The findings of this study highlight the need for an internationally coordinated approach to ensure safe medication administration by student and new graduate nurses.

Abstract: Psychographic segmentation is popular within the tourism literature. It is useful in describing a prototypical customer, however psychological attributes are hard to detect at the in idual level and by front-line staff. This paper tests the viability of prior visits (first-time vs. repeat visits) as a segmentation strategy, given this information is readily available to tourism operators. We test an interaction effect between prior visits, service quality, and perceived value using the ECOSERV model, a well-established model of ecotourism customer satisfaction. Using a s le of ecolodge guests, we demonstrate that a prior visit attenuates the relationship between perceived value and customer satisfaction. Among repeat guests, perceived value has less impact upon customer satisfaction and intentions to revisit or recommend an ecolodge. Conversely, service quality continues to predict satisfaction for both first-time and repeat guests. The data suggest attracting first-time guests requires appeals to the setting, features and price of an offering. Meanwhile, strategies to maximize repeat guests should emphasize non-monetary qualities of the experience.
