[Doriana] Winter Wonderland

[Doriana]

An aspect of Tina's job is a lot easier in winter than in any other season. What is it?

[WiZ]

Does Tina work indoors? Outdoors?

Is the aspect of her job easier when it's cold? When certain weather conditions are present (snow, rain, hail...)? Does the way people react to winter make the job easier (e.g. is it somehow easier when she's wearing coats or mittens, everyone's drinking warm beverages, the office heaters are turned on etc.)?

Does a relevant event happen in winter? Is the country relevant?

Do you wanna build a snowmaaaaan?

[Doriana]

Does Tina work indoors? This Outdoors?

Is the aspect of her job easier when it's cold? Yes When certain weather conditions are present (snow, rain, hail...)? No Does the way people react to winter make the job easier (e.g. is it somehow easier when she's wearing coats or mittens, everyone's drinking warm beverages, the office heaters are turned on etc.)? Yope, explore

Does a relevant event happen in winter? No Is the country relevant? Only insofar as any country with cool to cold winters would work

Do you wanna build a snowmaaaaan? I'll just leave this here...

[Zanreo]

Related to something people are more likely to do when it's cold? More likely to not do?

[Doriana]

[Grip]

Does she have an easier time convincing children to wear hats during the winter?

[Doriana]

Is something she puts on the children's head or face before putting on a hat relevant? after? FA, but putting something on children's heads is relevant

[GalFisk]

Does she pretend to the kids that something she puts on their heads is a hat? But in summer, they protest that they don't need a hat? Edit: is she a medical professional? Dentist? Barber?

[Doriana]

[Grip]

Are bandages relevant?

[GalFisk]

Does she do something to the kids? Instruct them to do something? Does she ask them to do an action similar to putting on a hat? Edit: does she need to make them accept something that may seem scary or unpleasant?

[Doriana]

Are bandages relevant? No

Does it need to be done more than one time for every kid? If so, is it done regularly? Is it something parents can do?

[Doriana]

Age of the kids relevant? Yesish (I would say, the younger, the stronger the difference between winter and the other seasons) Are they toddlers? This or younger Preschoolers? No In the winter, do they wear hats when she does this thing? No Does the thing she does hurt? No, but it might be somewhat unpleasant Does she relevantly try to distract them? No Does she use an object? Yes Technology? Yes Does she administer a test? Yes Check for a problem? Solve a problem? Is this thing only done to kids? Do adults do this thing themselves? No to these Does it need to be done more than one time for every kid? She does it twice on every kid If so, is it done regularly? Not in Tina's case, but some people need to have this done regularly Is it something parents can do? No

Nice round of questions!

[kalira]

Hats but not-ish hats? Are balaclavas relevant-ish? Some other hat-like implement that covers most of the head? Masks? Goggles?

Is the scary/unpleasant thing that she has to make them accept something that involves them being unable to see? move? having something cover them? their heads? faces?

[Doriana]

Hats but not-ish hats? No, sorry for the confusion. Clarification: Tina puts something on the children's heads that is not a hat. But hats are still relevant because many children wear them in winter. Are balaclavas relevant-ish? No Some other hat-like implement that covers most of the head? Yes Masks? Goggles? No to these

Is the scary/unpleasant thing that she has to make them accept something that involves them being unable to see? move? having something cover them? their heads? This faces? No to rest

[kalira]

Ah, okay, thanks for clarifying.

Is the thing she puts on them one of those hat-like things they use to scan your brain? Does it have a bunch of electrodes or something similar attached to it?

[Doriana]

Is the thing she puts on them one of those hat-like things they use to scan your brain? Does it have a bunch of electrodes or something similar attached to it? YES to both. The thing you're thinking about is called an EEG cap, and that is indeed what Tina puts on their heads. You're almost there

[GalFisk]

Does she test their brainwaves? See if they're normal? See how they're developing? Or changing? Or reacting to something? Does she test for epilepsy? Some other brain disorder? Is she doing scientific research?

[Doriana]

Does she test their brainwaves? See if they're normal? See how they're developing? Or changing? Or reacting to something? Does she test for epilepsy? Some other brain disorder? Is she doing scientific research? All are irrel

[GalFisk]

Does she operate an EEG machine? Does someone else? Does she do this to: any kid? Kids in a certain: area? Demographic?

[Doriana]

Does she operate an EEG machine? Yes (Sorry, I thought this was implied in my earlier answers) Does someone else? Not relevantly Does she do this to: any kid? Kids in a certain: area? Demographic? Irrel. All that's left to find out is how infants/toddlers wearing hats in winter makes it easier for Tina to put EEG caps on them.

[GalFisk]

Does she put the EEG cap on? Do the parents? Is something else relevantly put on? Is everything related to going outside put on, but the hat is substituted with the EEG cap?

[Doriana]

Does she put the EEG cap on? Yes Do the parents? No Is something else relevantly put on? No Is everything related to going outside put on, but the hat is substituted with the EEG cap? Good idea, but no - it's even simpler than that

[kalira]

Does she just tell them to think of it as they do their winter hat? which presumably might calm them down long enough for her to get what she needs? She doesn't decorate it like a winter hat, does she?

[Doriana]

Does she just tell them to think of it as they do their winter hat? which presumably might calm them down long enough for her to get what she needs? No - this might work with older children, but many of the kids she works with are too young to understand/follow instructions like this She doesn't decorate it like a winter hat, does she? No, she doesn't

[GalFisk]

Is it easier simply because the kids are used to have hatlike things put onto their heads by adults? Is it putting on the cap that is easier? Keeping it on? Keeping them from doing something else that interferes with the EEG? Are the kids supposed to do something specific with the cap on? Such as sleep? Or feed? Or play?

[Doriana]

Is it easier simply because the kids are used to have hatlike things put onto their heads by adults? YES Is it putting on the cap that is easier? Yes Keeping it on? Maybe Keeping them from doing something else that interferes with the EEG? No Are the kids supposed to do something specific with the cap on? Such as sleep? Or feed? Or play? All are irrel

********SPOILER********

Have you ever tried to put an EEG cap on an infant's head? I have, and it's a struggle. However, my more experienced co-worker told me that it's easier in winter because children wear hats anyway and are more used to having something put on their head by an adult.
