@misc{gn2015nature, abstract = {Urbanization has many benefits, but it also is associated with increased levels of mental illness, including depression. It has been suggested that decreased nature experience may help to explain the link between urbanization and mental illness. This suggestion is supported by a growing body of correlational and experimental evidence, which raises a further question: what mechanism(s) link decreased nature experience to the development of mental illness? One such mechanism might be the impact of nature exposure on rumination, a maladaptive pattern of self-referential thought that is associated with heightened risk for depression and other mental illnesses. We show in healthy participants that a brief nature experience, a 90-min walk in a natural setting, decreases both self-reported rumination and neural activity in the subgenual prefrontal cortex (sgPFC), whereas a 90-min walk in an urban setting has no such effects on self-reported rumination or neural activity. In other studies, the sgPFC has been associated with a self-focused behavioral withdrawal linked to rumination in both depressed and healthy individuals. This study reveals a pathway by which nature experience may improve mental well-being and suggests that accessible natural areas within urban contexts may be a critical resource for mental health in our rapidly urbanizing world.}, author = {GN, Bratman and JP, Hamilton and KS, Hahn and GC, Daily and JJ, Gross}, interhash = {1cd9cd3144f1ce8b9f5a2d0bf148043a}, intrahash = {82c82d58008ce6e31f755c5f26331c77}, journal = {Proceedings Of The National Academy Of Sciences Of The United States Of America}, month = {7}, number = 28, title = {Nature experience reduces rumination and subgenual prefrontal cortex activation.}, uniqueid = {26124129|cmedm}, volume = 112, year = 2015 } @article{zheng2011collaborative, abstract = {Objective A full-text search engine can be a useful tool for augmenting the reuse value of unstructured narrative data stored in electronic health records (EHR). A prominent barrier to the effective utilization of such tools originates from users' lack of search expertise and/or medical-domain knowledge. To mitigate the issue, the authors experimented with a ‘collaborative search’ feature through a homegrown EHR search engine that allows users to preserve their search knowledge and share it with others. This feature was inspired by the success of many social information-foraging techniques used on the web that leverage users' collective wisdom to improve the quality and efficiency of information retrieval.Design The authors conducted an empirical evaluation study over a 4-year period. The user sample consisted of 451 academic researchers, medical practitioners, and hospital administrators. The data were analyzed using a social-network analysis to delineate the structure of the user collaboration networks that mediated the diffusion of knowledge of search.Results The users embraced the concept with considerable enthusiasm. About half of the EHR searches processed by the system (0.44 million) were based on stored search knowledge; 0.16 million utilized shared knowledge made available by other users. The social-network analysis results also suggest that the user-collaboration networks engendered by the collaborative search feature played an instrumental role in enabling the transfer of search knowledge across people and domains.Conclusion Applying collaborative search, a social information-foraging technique popularly used on the web, may provide the potential to improve the quality and efficiency of information retrieval in healthcare.}, author = {Zheng, Kai and Mei, Qiaozhu and Hanauer, David A}, doi = {10.1136/amiajnl-2011-000009}, eprint = {http://jamia.bmj.com/content/18/3/282.full.pdf+html}, interhash = {413605f4ed8403324bf4c427e48faea0}, intrahash = {6648ce796254ed83fe853079b7bf2416}, journal = {Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association}, number = 3, pages = {282--291}, title = {Collaborative search in electronic health records}, url = {http://jamia.bmj.com/content/18/3/282.abstract}, volume = 18, year = 2011 } @article{ls_leimeister, address = {Heidelberg, Germany }, author = {Prinz, A. and Leimeister, J.
