The study at hand focuses the interdependencies between stress incidents and strategies of stress-coping in relation with well-being in helping professions. Furthermore, the scarce areas and the proband’s strategies of health behavior, comparing helping and other vocational groups, are investigated. The sample consist of teachers, bank employees, employees of marketing agencies, employees coming from the machine construction industry, as well as nurses, psychotherapists and physicians. The results show that everyday annoyances and problem-oriented stress-coping indeed affect well-being.
Usability is a core construct of website evaluation and inherently defined as interactive. Yet, when analysing first impressions of websites, expected usability, i.e., before use, is of interest. Here we investigate to what extend ratings of expected usability are related to (a) experienced usability, i.e., ratings after use, and (b) objective usability measures, i.e., task performance. Furthermore, we try to elucidate how ratings of expected usability are correlated to aesthetic judgments. In an experiment, 57 participants submitted expected usability ratings after the presentation of website screenshots in three viewing-time conditions (50, 500, and 10,000 ms) and after an interactive task (experienced usability). Additionally, objective usability measures (task completion and duration) and subjective aesthetics evaluations were recorded for each website. The results at both the group and individual level show that expected usability ratings are not significantly related either to experienced usability or objective usability measures. Instead, they are highly correlated with aesthetics ratings. Taken together, our results highlight the need for interaction in empirical website usability testing, even when exploring very early usability impressions. In our study, user ratings of expected usability were no valid proxy neither for objective usability nor for experienced website usability.

Problem: Familien in der ambulanten palliativen Situation unterliegen vielen Belastungen, welche bislang in Deutschland nur unzureichend erforscht wurden. Fragestellung: Wie kann die Situation von Familien in der ambulanten palliativen Betreuung auf Grundlage des aktuellen Forschungsstands für eine schriftliche Befragung in Deutschland konzeptualisiert werden? Methode: Basierend auf einer Literaturrecherche wurden Publikationen identifiziert, welche die Bedürfnisse und Belastungen der Familien untersuchten. Die Treffer wurden inhaltlich analysiert und kategorisiert. Auf dieser Grundlange wurden Instrumente recherchiert, welche die relevanten Kategorien adressieren. Die daraus ausgewählten Instrumente wurden zu einem Screeninginstrument zusammengefasst. Ergebnisse: Die 529 relevanten Publikationen beinhalten 38 Themengebiete in acht Kategorien. Hieraus wurde ein 71 Items umfassendes Screeninginstrument zusammengestellt, welches die palliative Situation der Familien in Deutschland erheben soll.

Gender disparities in German home-care arrangements
An ageing population correlates with rising needs for
long-term care (LTC). Support programmes should con-
sider the specific needs of the various subgroups of care
dependents and family caregivers. The objective of this
study was to analyse the gender-specific disparities in
home-care arrangements in Germany, and for this pur-
pose, survey and insurance claims data were used. A sur-
vey of 2545 insured care recipients with high-level care
needs was conducted in 2012 with the Barmer GEK, a
major German statutory healthcare insurance. Insurance
claims data were provided for a follow-up, focussing on
the group aged 60 years and older. For statistical compar-
ison, chi-squared test and t-tests were used, and a p-
value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Most
care recipients are female, and they are on average
2 years older than males. Men receive family care mostly
from their wives, whereas widows frequently live alone
and receive care from daughters, sons, other relatives,
neighbours and friends, as well as from professional
nursing services. Furthermore, women more often antici-
pate the need for (further) professional assistance and
move in with a relative or to an assisted living facility or
a nursing home in good time. The desired rate for reloca-
tion to a nursing home was higher than the anticipated,
and during the 6-month follow-up, the actual rate of
relocations was in between both. In summary, the caring
situation of men and women is different. Care-receiving
men are most often cared for by their wives. Widowed
women need a social network and their children in order
to remain in their own home. To provide better home-
care arrangements for women in this situation, the fam-
ily and social networks need a stronger focus in politics
and research. To stabilise the home-care situation of men
with high-level care needs, their wives need more
support.

The demand for evidence-based health informatics and benchmarking of 'good' information systems in health care gives an opportunity to continue reporting on recent papers in the German journal GMS Medical Informatics, Biometry and Epidemiology (MIBE) here. The publications in focus deal with a comparison of benchmarking initiatives in German-speaking countries, use of communication standards in telemonitoring scenarios, the estimation of national cancer incidence rates and modifications of parametric tests. Furthermore papers in this issue of MIM are introduced which originally have been presented at the Annual Conference of the German Society of Medical Informatics, Biometry and Epidemiology. They deal as well with evidence and evaluation of 'good' information systems but also with data harmonization, surveillance in obstetrics, adaptive designs and parametrical testing in statistical analysis, patient registries and signal processing.
