Women's Psychological Experiences in a Narrative
 Therapy‐Based
 Group: An Analysis of Participants' Writings and Beck Depression Inventory–Second Edition

: The purpose of this study was to explore women ’ s experiences in a narrative therapy-based group conducted to help participants re-author their stories. Seven women who were either patients or individuals enrolled in Transition Support for Employment at a psychiatric clinic participated in the meetings, one every fortnight. Each session explored a theme based on narrative therapy techniques such as externalization. The participants wrote their re ﬂ ections during each session, and completed the Beck Depression Inventory-Second Edition (BDI-II) during the initial and ﬁ nal sessions. An af ﬁ nity diagram was developed to classify their written re ﬂ ections into 22 lower categories (e.g., new understanding of self , forward-looking-understanding of life ) and 4 upper categories ( “ Insight, ” “ Sharing with others, ” “ Changes with understanding of lives, ” “ Higher motivation ” ). The relationship among ﬁ ve lower categories comprising “ Insight ” was explored, and it became apparent that clari ﬁ cation of participants ’ own thoughts about social problems functioned as a mediator promoting the process. The largest portion of depressed feelings emerged during the initial session, and four participants had lower scores for BDI-II items such as self-criticism in the ﬁ nal session. The results suggest that the group ’ s purpose was realized. However, future studies should examine participants ’ feelings more closely, especially during the initial session.
Phagoburst Response Level of Neutrophils to Septic and Non-Septic Acinetobacter baumannii Isolates

Results: The presence of this pathogen lowered the phagoburst response in the different types of neutrophils compared to their response to the opsonized Escherichia coli. The phagoburst response of the neutrophils from the immunocompetent individual was significantly higher than that of neutrophils from the immunodeficient patients when stimulated by the septicemic or nonsepticemic A. baumannii isolates. The isolate type (septicemic or non-septicemic) had no significant effect on the neutrophil phagoburst response of the immunocompetent individual and a significant effect on the phagoburst response of neutrophils from the immunodeficient patients. The phagoburst response of the neutrophils from the immunodeficient patients stimulated by septicemic A. baumannii isolates was significantly lower than that when neutrophils stimulated by the nonsepticemic isolates. Also, there was a significant difference in the phagoburst response of neutrophils from the CML and ST patients when stimulated by the septicemic and non-septicemic isolates. This observation might be due to the combined effect of virulent A. baumannii isolates and the chemotherapy regime the patient was undertaking.
Preferential concentration driven instability of sheared gas–solid suspensions

We examine the linear stability of a homogeneous gas–solid suspension of small Stokes number particles, with a moderate mass loading, subject to a simple shear flow. The modulation of the gravitational force exerted on the suspension, due to preferential concentration of particles in regions of low vorticity, in response to an imposed velocity perturbation, can lead to an algebraic instability. Since the fastest growing modes have wavelengths small compared with the characteristic length scale ( $U_{g}/{\it\Gamma}$ ) and oscillate with frequencies large compared with ${\it\Gamma}$ , $U_{g}$ being the settling velocity and ${\it\Gamma}$ the shear rate, we apply the WKB method, a multiple scale technique. This analysis reveals the existence of a number density mode which travels due to the settling of the particles and a momentum mode which travels due to the cross-streamline momentum transport caused by settling. These modes are coupled at a turning point which occurs when the wavevector is nearly horizontal and the most amplified perturbations are those in which a momentum wave upstream of the turning point creates a downstream number density wave. The particle number density perturbations reach a finite, but large amplitude that persists after the wave becomes aligned with the velocity gradient. The growth of the amplitude of particle concentration and fluid velocity disturbances is characterised as a function of the wavenumber and Reynolds number ( $\mathit{Re}=U_{g}^{2}/{\it\Gamma}{\it\nu}$ ) using both asymptotic theory and a numerical solution of the linearised equations.
The relationship between nurses’ conscientious intelligence levels and care behaviors: A cross-sectional study

Background Nurses are the main protectors of goodness, honesty and morality in patient care. Conscience allows nurses to be understanding and careful while they provide patient care. In this research the researcher aimed to determine the relationship between conscientious intelligence levels and caring behaviours of nurses and to determine the factors affecting the conscientious intelligence levels and caring behaviours. Methods This research designed as a descriptive, cross-sectional and correlation study included 314 nurses working at three hospitals in eastern Turkey. The data were collected by the researcher at a time when the nurses were available and not working. Written and oral informed consent was obtained from all the participants. Results A moderate significant positive correlation was observed between conscientious intelligence levels and caring behaviours of nurses. The length of service in nursing, sex and being pleased with the nursing profession were associated with conscientious intelligence levels and caring behaviours. Conclusion At the end of this research, it was determined that nurses with high conscientious intelligence had better caring behaviours. Although it is very important for nurses to be knowledgeable of and competent at providing care, taking their conscience into consideration in the care of his or her patients is more important. If a nurse is not pleased with the nursing profession, his or her behaviour should be monitored when he or she provides care for the patient. Persons without conscientious values should not be accepted into the nursing profession.
Thermal strengthening of low‐expansion glasses and thin‐walled glass products by ultra‐fast heat extraction

Thermal strengthening remains the primary method for enhancing the practical strength of commodity glass products, however, the process is limited in terms of applicable glass thickness and coefficient of thermal expansion. The primary reasons for this limitation are the achievable heat transfer coefficient when using conventional gas cooling, and the occurrence of transient surface tension in the early stages of rapid quenching. We revisit this problem for the case of thin borosilicate glass sheet. Using liquid gallium as the cooling medium, ultra- fast heat extraction is achieved, with a heat transfer coefficient exceeding 5000 Wm −2 K −1 . The low vapor pressure of gallium even at high temperatures enables preheating to a wide range of sheet entrant temperatures. We demonstrate thermal strengthening of low- expansion borosilicate glass with persistent surface compression of up to 85 MPa, and quenching to a fictive temperature of ~190 K above the glass transition temperature. Glass sheet obtained in this way exhibits notably enhanced surface defect resistance to sharp indentation. In addition to thermal strengthening, the extraordinarily high heat extraction rates achieved by liquid metal immersion enable exploitation of high- T f glass properties beyond small and thin sample geometry.
Characterization of cellophane birefringence due to uniaxial strain by focused surface plasmon microscopy

In this paper, we study the relationship of local birefringence and stress oriented inhomogeneous elasticity of a sample from the spatial frequency response of focused surface plasmon (FSP). The birefringence of the sample varies the propagation constant of surface plasmon with regard to its direction and produces an elliptic absorption pattern in the reflected spatial frequency distribution. Birefringence is calculated from the ratio of the propagation constant along the fast to slow axis of the sample. The change in eccentricity was proportional to the applied stress on cellophane film. A strong correlation (0.94∼0.97) exists between FSP and phase shifting interferometry results.
The substitutive state? Neoliberal state interventionism across industrial, housing and private pensions policy in the UK

This article advances the notion of ‘the substitutive state’ to explore the changing character of state institutions and state action in the context of neoliberalization. This understanding is contrasted with alternative accounts of state neoliberalization such as ‘the regulatory state’ and ‘the competition state’. It focuses upon the UK, and three domains of economic statecraft in particular: industrial policy (primarily the May government’s 2017 industrial strategy), housing policy (primarily extensive support for mortgage lending and borrowing since the 2008 financial crisis) and private pensions policy (primarily the establishment of state-owned pension scheme providers in the context of ‘automatic enrolment’ regulations). The article argues that state action in the UK increasingly encompasses new mechanisms for intervention in the private economy. However, associated policy practices are rarely strategic or purposeful. Interventionist mechanisms are often populated by the private economic actors implicated in the problem intervention is designed to solve, or are used to relieve the private sector from serving unprofitable market segments. Substitutive statism is aligned with a wider accumulation regime which state actors perceive as immutable; they are therefore willing to intervene to sustain this regime, irrespective of market signals. In short, state institutions have a more expansive interventionist footprint, but are doing less with more. In contrast to accounts of ‘the neoliberal state’, we should not assume that these institutions add up to ‘the state’, albeit a state with neoliberal characteristics. State action has always been a central, organizing element of neoliberalism, although its form has evolved as neoliberal ideas confront capitalist accumulation in practice.
Survey on Multi-Access Edge Computing Security and Privacy

The European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) has introduced the paradigm of Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) to enable efficient and fast data processing in mobile networks. Among other technological requirements, security and privacy are significant factors in the realization of MEC deployments. In this paper, we analyse the security and privacy of the MEC system. We introduce a thorough investigation of the identification and the analysis of threat vectors in the ETSI standardized MEC architecture. Furthermore, we analyse the vulnerabilities leading to the identified threat vectors and propose potential security solutions to overcome these vulnerabilities. The privacy issues of MEC are also highlighted, and clear objectives for preserving privacy are defined. Finally, we present future directives to enhance the security and privacy of MEC services.
Correlations between the Composition of Liquid Fraction of Full-Scale Digestates and Process Conditions

Fast development of centralized agricultural biogas plants leads to high amounts of digestate production. The treatment and disposal of liquid fractions after on-site digestate solid–liquid separation remains problematic due to their high organic, nutrient and aromatic contents. This work aims to study the variability of the remaining compounds in the digestate liquid fractions in relation to substrate origin, process parameters and solid–liquid separation techniques. Twenty-nine digestates from full-scale codigestion biogas plants and one waste activated sludge (WAS) digestate were collected and characterized. This study highlighted the combined effect of the solid–liquid separation process and the anaerobic digestion feedstock on the characteristics of liquid fractions of digestates. Two major clusters were found: (1) liquid fractions from high efficiency separation process equipment (e.g., centrifuge and others with addition of coagulant, flocculent or polymer) and (2) liquid fractions from low efficiency separation processes (e.g., screw press, vibrating screen and rotary drum), in this latter case, the concentration of chemical oxygen demand (COD) was associated with the proportion of cow manure and energy crops at biogas plant input. Finally, SUVA254, an indicator for aromatic molecule content and the stabilization of organic matter, was associated with the hydraulic retention time (HRT).
Standard-dose PET reconstruction from low-dose preclinical images using an adopted all convolutional U-Net

As a mainstay of metabolic studies, Positron Emission Tomography (PET) has aroused remarkable attention in the clinical arena and the translational realm. The amount of radiotracer dosage is amongst the major problems in PET imaging, creating ongoing challenges for both the clinical community and the preclinical researchers. In quest of generating diagnostic quality PET images in extremely low-dose conditions, several deep-learning(DL)-inspired methods have sprung up in human imaging over the past few years. Propelled by the successful application of DL techniques in human studies and the unique advantages of deep neural networks in learning specific features, we have investigated a fully 3D U-Netlike model which enables reconstructing standard-dose PET dataset directly from its low-dose equivalent. We verified the performance of the method both in mice and rat PET scans through calculating image evaluation metrics such as RMSE, PSNR, and SSIM. Our measurements revealed that the proposed method could provide high-quality PET scans with improved noise properties in low-dose rodent studies.
The Impact of Advisor Gender on Female Students’ STEM Enrollment and Persistence

ABSTRACT To reduce the gender gap in science fields, policymakers often propose providing women with mentoring by female scientists. However, there is no clear evidence on whether one-on-one mentor gender influences women’s STEM participation. We exploit a unique setting where students are randomly assigned to academic advisors—who are also faculty members—in their freshman year of college. Advisors help students select courses and decide on a major. We find that having a female rather than a male science advisor substantially increases the likelihood that women enroll and graduate with STEM degrees. A nonscience advisor’s gender has no impact on students’ major choice.
Hortonian Overland Flow, Hillslope Morphology and Stream Power
I: Spatial Energy Distributions and Steady-state Power Maxima

Abstract. Recent developments in hydrology have led to a new perspective on runoff processes, extending beyond the classical mass dynamics of water in a catchment. For instance, stream flow has been analyzed in a thermodynamic framework, which allows the incorporation of two additional physical laws and enhances our understanding of catchments as open environmental systems. Related investigations suggested that energetic extremal principles might constrain hydrological processes, because the latter are associated with conversions and dissipation of free energy. Here we expand this thermodynamic perspective by exploring how macro and micro hillslope structures control the free energy balance of Hortonian overland flow. This may ultimately help understanding why these structures have evolved to their present shape. To this end, we develop a general theory of surface runoff and of the related conversion of geopotential energy gradients into other forms of energy, particularly kinetic energy as driver of erosion and sediment transport. We then use this framework to analyze how combinations of typical hillslopes profiles and width distributions control the spatial patterns of steady state stream power and energy dissipation along the flow path. Additionally, we provide a first order estimate whether and when rills reduce the overall energy dissipation compared to sheet flow. Finally, we relate accumulated stream power of linear hillslopes to slope angles, closing the loop to Horton's original formulation of erosion force. The analytical analysis of stream power reveals that the common formulation, a function of the depth-discharge product is a reduced version of the more general equations if we neglect changes in velocity and discharge in space. The full equations of stream power result in maximum energy fluxes in space for sinusoidal and exponential hillslope profiles, while linear and negative exponential forms unlimitedly increase these fluxes in the downstream direction. Depending on geometry, rill flow increases or decreases kinetic energy fluxes downslope, effectively counteracting or increasing the dissipation of potential energy. For accumulated power in space for steady state runoff, we find that on linear hillslopes a slope angle of 45° maximizes the conversion of potential energy into dissipation and an angle of 35° maximizes the conversion of potential energy into kinetic energy.
Validation and Use of the RumiWatch Noseband Sensor for Monitoring Grazing Behaviours of Lactating Dairy Cows

Precision livestock farming (PLF) supports the development of sustainable dairy production. The sensors used in PLF provide valuable information for farm management, but they must be validated to ensure the accuracy. The goal of this study was to validate and use the RumiWatch sensor (RWS; Itin+Hoch GmbH, Liestal, Switzerland) to differentiate prehension bites, eating chews, mastication chews and rumination chews in pressure-based system. Twenty cows were used for 14 days to provide a validation dataset. The concordance correlation coefficient (CCC) was adopted to test the concordance between the RumiWatch sensor and video observation. The RumiWatch sensor performed well in counting prehension bites (CCC = 0.98), eating chews (CCC = 0.95) and rumination chews (CCC = 0.96), while it showed an acceptable concordance in counting mastication chews with video observation (CCC = 0.77). Moderate correlations were found between eating chews and daily milk production: daily milk production (kg/day) = 0.001151 × eating chews (chews/day) − 11.73 (R2 = 0.31; standard error (SE) = 8.88; p = 0.011), and between mastication chews and daily milk production: daily milk production (kg/day) = 0.001935 × mastication chews (chews/day) + 2.103 (R2 = 0.34; SE = 8.70; p = 0.007). Overall, the results indicated that the RumiWatch sensor can be confidently used to quantify and differentiate prehension bites, eating chews and rumination chews; in addition, ingestive behaviours explained up to 34% of the variation in milk production.

A Cross-level Influencing Mechanism on the Relationship Between Leader’s Noninterference Orientation and Employees’ Innovation Behavior

Based on Chinese traditional culture, this research explores the cross-level influencing mechanism on the relationship between leader’s noninterference orientation and employees’ innovation behavior, and based on the mediating effect of democratic leadership. Through the paired questionnaire survey of 99 leadership samples and 358 employee samples, the conclusion is drawn that the leader’s noninterference orientation approach has a significant positive impact on democratic leadership and employees’ innovation behavior; democratic leadership has an intermediary role between leader’s noninterference orientation and employees’ innovation behavior.
Sexual compatibility and its associated factors among heterosexual couples: a systemic review

Abstract Despite numerous studies on sexual behaviors, there are limited studies investigating compatibility between two partners. The objective of this study was to review the factors associated with sexual compatibility in couples. A review study was conducted using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines and through searching for published English and Persian articles on factors associated with sexual compatibility with a time limit up to December 2019. International and Iranian Electronic databases including Web of Science, PsycINFO, PubMed, Scopus, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Scientific Information Database (SID), Irandoc, and Magiran were searched using search terms relating to “sexual compatibility” and other equivalents. All quantitative and qualitative full-text studies that had addressed associated factors with sexual compatibility were included. Six quantitative articles and one qualitative article were selected based on the inclusion criteria. Sexual compatibility was related to self-awareness, mental body image, personality-psychological maturity, and some sexual behaviors of the subjects. Couples’ sexual companionship was a necessary component for their sexual compatibility. Considering the association of sexual compatibility with variables such as positive self-awareness and mental body image, personality-psychological maturity, sexual behaviors, and sexual companionship, it seems that using these variables can help predict the sexual compatibility of couples.
Thermodynamic analysis and preferential solvation of sulfanilamide in different cosolvent mixtures

ABSTRACT The thermodynamic analysis and preferential solvation of the solubility of sulphanilamide (SA) in five cosolvent mixtures (ethanol + water; 1,4-dioxane + water, acetonitrile + water, dimethyl-sulphoxide + water, and dimethylsulphoxide + water) are presented. The thermodynamic functions are calculated employing the Gibbs and van´t Hoff equations, and the analysis of preferential solvation is developed by inverse Kirkwood–Buff integrals method. The solubility process is endothermic, with entropic favouring in all cases. Finally, according to the solvation parameter, SA is solvated preferentially by water in more polar mixtures, and in DMF + W, and DMSO + W mixtures it is solvated by organic solvent. In the other mixtures (EtOH + W, DIOX + W, and MeCN + W) the SA is solvated by the organic solvent in intermediate mixtures and by water in the less polar mixtures.
