Afetler; toplumun tamamı veya belli kesimleri için fiziksel, ekonomik ve sosyal kayıplara yol açan doğa, teknoloji veya insan kaynaklı olaylar olarak tanımlanabilir. Bu olaylar, normal yaşamı ve insan faaliyetlerini durdurur veya kesintiye uğratır, etkilenen toplumun başa çıkma kapasitesindeki yetersizlikleri ortaya çıkarır. Afetlerde ilk müdahale yereldir. Afet bölgesine yardımların ulaşması bazı durumlarda günler hatta haftalar sürebilir. Bu nedenle afet ve acil durumlara yönelik bir toplum afet müdahale planının olması çok önemlidir. Afet ve acil durumlara yönelik hazırlanan afet müdahale planları; zarar azaltma, afete hazırlık, afet yanıtı, rehabilitasyon ve yeniden yapılanma aktivitelerini ayrıntılı bir şekilde içermelidir. Kamu kurumları, sivil toplum kuruluşları ve özel sektörün rol aldığı afet müdahale planlarının etkinliğinin arttırılmasında ilgili alanlarda eczacılara büyük sorumluluklar düşmektedir. Eczacılık mesleği mensuplarının afet ve acil durumlarda görevlerini icra etmeleri desteklenmeli ve afet müdahale planlarında ve medikal kurtarma ekiplerinde yer almalarının önü açılmalıdır. Bu derlemenin amacı, insan kaynaklı veya doğal afetler gibi olağanüstü durumlar için Uluslararası Eczacılık Federasyonu tarafından yayınlanan mesleki standartlar ve kılavuzlardaki güncel bilgileri afet ve acil durum eczacılığı alanına ilgi duyan eczacılara sunmaktır

Early posterior negativity indicates time dilation by arousal

We investigated whether Early Posterior Negativity (EPN) indicated the subjective dilation of time when judging the duration of arousing stimuli. Participants performed a visual temporal bisection task along with high-level and low-level arousing auditory stimuli, while we simultaneously recorded EEG. In accordance with previous studies, arousing stimuli were temporally overestimated and led to higher EPN amplitude. Yet, we observed that time dilation and EPN amplitude were significantly correlated and this effect cannot be explained by confounds from stimulus valence. We interpret our findings in terms of the pacemaker-accumulator model of human timing, and suggest that EPN indicates an arousal-based increasing of the speed of our mental clock

The timing database:An open-access, live repository for interval timing studies

Interval timing refers to the ability to perceive and remember intervals in the seconds to minutes range. Our contemporary understanding of interval timing is derived from relatively small-scale, isolated studies that investigate a limited range of intervals with a small sample size, usually based on a single task. Consequently, the conclusions drawn from individual studies are not readily generalizable to other tasks, conditions, and task parameters. The current paper presents a live database that presents raw data from interval timing studies (currently composed of 68 datasets from eight different tasks incorporating various interval and temporal order judgments) with an online graphical user interface to easily select, compile, and download the data organized in a standard format. The Timing Database aims to promote and cultivate key and novel analyses of our timing ability by making published and future datasets accessible as open-source resources for the entire research community. In the current paper, we showcase the use of the database by testing various core ideas based on data compiled across studies (i.e., temporal accuracy, scalar property, location of the point of subjective equality, malleability of timing precision). The Timing Database will serve as the repository for interval timing studies through the submission of new datasets
