未经证实:有大量研究表明,上呼吸道感染(URTIs),比如普通感冒和流感,会损害精神表现。这项研究大部分涉及实验诱导的URTI的研究或自然发生的疾病的实验室研究。这项研究的结果对工作和教育方面的表现都有影响。
UNASSIGNED:本文提供了一个案例研究,研究了URTIs与学业成绩之间的关联,并报告了使用此类信息作为不良表现的可选情况。
未经评估:本文描述了一个小学生参加11+考试的表现不佳,这决定了未来中学的选择。有证据表明,学生在考试时正在孵化URTI是合理的。其他可能的感染,比如COVID,被排除了。根据孵化URTI与异常糟糕的考试表现之间的可能联系,提出了上诉。
UNASSIGNED:上诉得到了裁决委员会的支持,学生被允许进入首选中学。
UNASSIGNED:本案例研究表明,关于URTI与心理表现之间的关联的信息可以用作一种情有可原的情况,可以解释学习成绩不佳的原因。这可以构成未来上诉的基础,并就提出此类索赔所需的证据类型提出建议。
未经批准:URTI经常发生,普通,以及缺乏教育和工作的原因。它们也可能损害性能,效果不限于患者出现症状的时间。它们还可能增加对压力和疲劳的负面影响的敏感性。
UNASSIGNED: There has been extensive research showing that upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs), such as the common cold and influenza, can impair mental performance. Much of this research has involved studies of experimentally induced URTIs or laboratory studies of naturally occurring illnesses. The results from this research have implications for performance at work and in education.
UNASSIGNED: The present article presents a
case study of the association between URTIs and academic performance and
reports the use of such information as an extenuating circumstance for poor performance.
UNASSIGNED: The paper describes the poor performance of a primary school student taking the 11+ examination, which determines the choice of the future secondary school. Evidence suggested that it was plausible that the student was incubating an URTI at the time of the examination. Other possible infections, such as COVID, were ruled out. An appeal was made based on the possible association between incubating an URTI and unusually poor examination performance.
UNASSIGNED: The appeal was supported by the adjudicating committee and the student was allowed a place in the preferred secondary school.
UNASSIGNED: This
case study shows that information about the association between URTIs and mental performance can be used as an extenuating circumstance that can plausibly account for poor academic performance. This can form the basis of the future appeals and recommendations for the type of evidence needed to make such claims are made.
UNASSIGNED: URTIs are frequent, common, and a cause of absence from education and work. They may also impair performance, with effects not being restricted to the time the person is symptomatic. They may also increase susceptibility to the negative effects of stress and fatigue.
