Realizing the problem wasn’t necessarily me": An interpretative phenomenological analysis of the meaning of childhood adversity and resilience in the lives of autistic adults
Authors: Heselton Gabrielle A. , Rempel Gwen R. , Nicholas David B
Published: April 2021

Interview Data
There is ample evidence that childhood adversity
correlates negatively with physical and mental health outcomes across the
lifespan. Resilience results when internal and external protective factors in
childhood mitigate the effects of adversity and mental and physical health
outcomes are improved. However, the phenomena of childhood adversity and
resilience among autistic children are understudied and not well understood. In
this study, we engaged members of the autism community to advise on the
research question, research design, and analysis. Following the engagement
phase, three autistic young women and one nonbinary young adult, aged 19-27,
participated in semi-structured interviews via phone, video conference, and
online chat;. credibility checking interviews followed data analysis. Through
interpretative phenomenological analysis we identified themes related to
negative effects of adversity, including social disconnection, mental
and emotional well-being, sense of self, and development into
young adulthood. Resilience was developed in places of refuge and identity,
and was evident in their transitions into young adulthood. These
findings provide direction for fostering resilience in children and adolescents
on the autism spectrum and planning and implementing mental health supports to
autistic individuals across the lifespan.

Pendidikan adalah usaha sadar dan terencana untuk mewujudkan suasana belajar dan pembelajaran agar peserta didik secara aktif mengembangkan potensi dirinya untuk memiliki kekuatan spritual, keagamaan, pengendalian diri, kepribadian, kecerdasan, akhlak mulia, serta kecerdasan yang diperlukan dirinya dan masyarakat. pendidikan juga adalah satu usaha mengatur pengetahuan untuk menambahkan lagi pengetahuan yang semulan tidak tahu menjadi tahu.Dalam proses tidak tahu menjadi tahu tersebut manusia mengalami sebuah rangkaian proses pembelajaran.Manusia sejak lahir telah dibekali dengan sejumlah potensi. Potensi adalah kemampuan, kesanggupan, daya yang menjadi modal bagi manusia tersebut agar kelak siap mandiri dalam menjalani kehidupan di lingkungan di mana dia berada. Anak manusia dalam hal ini adalah manusia yang belum dewasa sehingga potensi yang ada pada diri anak ibarat bahan baku (raw material) yang belum siap pakai. Untuk menjadi barang siap pakai (manufacture), maka dalam proses menjadi potensi tersebut membutuhkan sebuah penanganan dan bantuan oleh orang dewasa.

The technological behaviours of Homo antecessor: core management and reduction intensity at Gran Dolina-TD6.2 (Atapuerca, Spain)
Authors: Lombao Diego , Rabuñal José Ramón , Morales Juan I , Ollé Andreu , Carbonell Eudald , Mosquera Marina
Published: April 2021

Approaching the life history of artefacts is fundamental for understanding both the formation processes of archaeological assemblages and their technological variability. In this paper, we explore the variability of technological behaviours exhibited by the hominins from subunit TD6.2 at the Gran Dolina site (Atapuerca, Burgos), by combining both technological and reduction intensity analyses of the cores recovered. We used the Volumetric Reconstruction Method (VRM) to estimate the original volume of the blanks and quantify the reduction intensity of each core individually, after which we characterised the reduction distribution patterns using Weibull probability distribution functions. Our results suggest differential raw material management in terms of reduction intensity, according to the characteristics of each lithology. This could reflect a solid understanding of raw material qualities and a certain degree of planning. From a technological perspective, our results suggest continuity between knapping strategies through reduction, which seems to indicate constant adaptation to raw material constraints as well as particular knapping conditions, rather than to specific compartmentalised mental schemes.

Neue Technologien im öffentlichen Sektor: Bürgerinnen und Bürger haben nur geringe Erwartungen.
Authors: Fischer Caroline , Willems Jurgen , Van den Bergh Joachim
Published: April 2021

Aktuelle technologische Entwicklungen (z.B. künstliche Intelligenz) führen immer wieder zu Debatten, wie diese sinnvoll für die öffentliche Verwaltung genutzt werden können. Die Verwaltung selbst und entsprechende Expertinnen und Experten diskutieren mögliche positive Wirkungen auch in Bezug auf Werte, wie Effizienz, Transparenz oder Fairness. Diese Studie untersucht, ob Bürgerinnen und Bürger von der Anwendung dieser Technologien in der öffentlichen Verwaltung ebensolche Wirkungen ebenso erwarten. Dabei wird auch analysiert, ob eine andere Erwartungshaltung als bei gewinnorientierten Unternehmen besteht. Die Befragungsergebnisse (N=1.577) zeigen, dass weder negative noch positive Erwartungen in Bezug auf Wirkungen dieser Technologien bestehen, das gilt für öffentliche wie für die privatwirtschaftliche Leistungserbringung. Es wird diskutiert, ob die Ergebnisse in der bisher mangelnden Anwendung der untersuchten Technologien begründet liegen oder aus einer unzureichenden Kommunikation mit und Einbindung von Bürgerinnen und Bürgern in entsprechende Planungs- und Implementationsprozesse resultieren.
Enhancing the accuracy of deep learning based FE$^2$ algorithm using proper orthogonal decomposition
Authors: Dana Saumik
Published: April 2021

The deep learning leveraged FE$^2$ algorithm for two-scale modeling of elastic solids eliminates the need to solve the RVE problem on-the-fly by replacing the effective input-output causality by a neural network. This potentially reduces the computational cost of the FE$^2$ algorithm significantly. In this work, we put forth the use of snapshot proper orthogonal decomposition to improve the accuracy of the machine learning leveraged algorithm. Instead of training one neural net, multiple neural nets are trained with the coefficients of the basis of the snapshot matrix as the target.
" I feel like I am wasting my time..." Addressing statistics anxiety in students required to learn statistics as part of another course.
Authors: Swingler Maxine v , Friel Niamh , McAleer Phil , Morrow Lorna
Published: April 2021

Statistics and research methods are embedded in the university curricula for Psychology and more widely in the curricula for university courses in education and the social sciences (QAA, 2010; BPS 2013), yet many students underestimate the extent of statistics covered in these subjects (Ruggeri, Dempster, Hanna & Cleary, 2008). Although statistics is an important part of many courses, it is also one of the subjects that is most disliked by students (Sciutto, 2002), and indeed causes anxiety in students (Schacht & Stewart, 1990).The purpose of the current research was initially to identify the levels of statistics anxiety in UG and PGT psychology students; identify perceived causes of this; and establish any practical interventions that could be introduced in an attempt to alleviate anxiety and increase student engagement. The second stage of the research was to introduce and evaluate a number of practical interventions targeted at alleviating statistics anxiety in psychology students at the University of Glasgow.
A normative account of self-deception, overconfidence, and paranoia
Authors: Rossi-Goldthorpe Rosa , Leong Yuan Chang , Leptourgos Pantelis , Corlett Philip R.
Published: April 2021

Self-deception, paranoia, and overconfidence involve misbeliefs about self, others, and world. They are often considered mistaken. Here we explore whether they might be adaptive, and further, whether they might be explicable in normative Bayesian terms. We administered a difficult perceptual judgment task with and without social influence (suggestions from a cooperating or competing partner). Crucially, the social influence was uninformative. We found that participants heeded the suggestions most under the most uncertain conditions and that they did so with high confidence, particularly if they were more paranoid. Model fitting to participant behavior revealed that their prior beliefs changed depending on whether the partner was a collaborator or competitor, however, those beliefs did not differ as a function of paranoia. Instead, paranoia, self-deception, and overconfidence were associated with participants’ perceived instability of their own performance. These data are consistent with the idea that self-deception, paranoia, and overconfidence flourish under uncertainty, and have their roots in low self-esteem, rather than excessive social concern. The normative model suggests that spurious beliefs can have value – self-deception is irrational yet can facilitate optimal behavior. This occurs even at the expense of monetary rewards, perhaps explaining why self-deception and paranoia contribute to costly decisions which can spark financial crashes and costly wars.
The Partisan Mask: Political Orientation, Collectivism, and Religiosity Predict Mask Use During COVID-19
Authors: Im Hohjin , Wang Peiyi , Chen Chuansheng
Published: April 2021

In the United States, the COVID-19 pandemic became an unconventional vehicle to advance partisan rhetoric and antagonism. Using data available at the individual- (Study 1; N = 4,220), county- (Study 2; n = 3,046), and state-level (n = 49), we found that partisanship and political orientation was a robust and strong correlate of mask use. Political conservatism and Republican partisanship were related to downplaying the severity of COVID-19 and perceiving masks as being ineffective that, in turn, were related to lower mask use. In contrast, we found that counties with majority Democrat partisanship reported greater mask use, controlling for various socioeconomic and demographic factors. Lastly, states with strong cultural collectivism reported greater mask use while those with strong religiosity reported the opposite. States with greater Democrat partisanship and strong cultural collectivism subsequently reported lower COVID-19 deaths, mediated by greater mask use and lower COVID-19 cases, in the five months following the second wave of COVID-19 in the US during the Summer of 2020. Nonetheless, more than the majority for Democrats (91.58%), Republicans (77.52%), and third-party members (82.48%) reported using masks. Implications for findings are discussed.
Recognizing voices through a cochlear implant: A systematic review
Authors: Orena Adriel John , Colby Sarah Elizabeth Margaret
Published: April 2021

Objective: Some cochlear implant (CI) users report having difficulty accessing indexical information in the speech signal, presumably due to the transformation from acoustic to electric signal in CI devices. The purpose of this paper was to systematically review and evaluate the existing research on talker perception in CI users. Specifically, we reviewed the performance of CI users in talker discrimination, gender identification, and talker recognition tasks in relation to performance by normal-hearing (NH) listeners. We also examined the different factors (such asparticipant, hearing and device characteristics) that might influence talker perception.Design: We completed a systematic search of the literature with select keywords using citation aggregation software to search Google Scholar. We included primary reports that had at least one group of participants with cochlear implants, and had an experimental task that measured talker or voice perception. Each included study was also evaluated for quality of evidence.Results: The initial search resulted in 1239 references, which were first screened for inclusion and then evaluated in full. Thirty-nine studies examining talker identification, talker discrimimnation, and gender discrimination were included in the final review. The majority of studies were focused on adult postlingual cochlear implant users, with a few studies focused on prelingual implant users. As a group, CI users generally performed above chance in talker perception tasks, but performed worse than NH controls. Nonetheless, a subset of CI users reached the same level of performance as NH participants. CI users relied more heavily on fundamental frequency over vocal tract length cues to distinguish talkers compared to NH listeners. Within groups of CI users, there is moderate evidence for a bimodal benefit for talker perception, and there are mixed findings about the effects of hearing experience. Performance in talker discrimination tasks was related to other linguistic tasks, including word recognition. Conclusion: The current review highlights the challenges faced by CI users in tracking and recognizing voices and how they adapt to it. There is clear evidence that CI users can process indexical information, albeit differently and more effortfully than NH listeners. Recent work has begun to describe some of the factors that might ease the challenges of talker perception in CI users, but further high-quality research is needed to disentangle some of the mixed findings. We conclude by suggesting some future avenues of research to optimize real-world speech outcomes.
How Do People Perceive Sexual Harassment Targeting Transgender Women, Lesbians, and Straight Cisgender Women?
Authors: Mezzapelle Jennifer , Reiman Anna
Published: April 2021

Third-party observers’ opinions affect how organizations handle sexual harassment. Prior research has focused on perceptions of sexual harassment targeting straight cisgender women. We examined how targets’ sexual orientation and gender identity impact these perceptions. In three preregistered studies, straight cisgender participants imagined a coworker confided that a male colleague had sexually harassed her. The target was a transgender woman, a lesbian woman, or a woman whose sexual orientation and gender identity were unspecified. In Study 1 (N=428), participants reported believing that sexual harassment targeting lesbians and women with unspecified identities was most likely motivated by attraction and power, whereas sexual harassment targeting transgender women was seen as most likely motivated by power and prejudice. Despite these differences in perceived motivation, in Study 2 (N=421) perceptions of appropriate consequences for the perpetrator did not vary based on the target’s identity. Study 3 (N=473) demonstrated that the specific behavior of which sexual harassment is assumed to consist differs based on the target’s identity. Whereas women with unspecified identities and lesbians were assumed to face stereotypical attraction-based harassment, transgender women were assumed to face gender harassment. Stereotypes about sexual harassment can bias third-party assumptions, invalidating experiences that do not match pervasive stereotypes.
Measurement of mathematics anxiety in an Israeli adult population
Authors: Batashvili Michael , Cipora Krzysztof , Hunt Thomas
Published: April 2021

Maths anxiety is common and refers to feelings of anxiety, fear and other negative emotions and thoughts in individuals when confronted with mathematical tasks or numerical information. Self-report measures of maths anxiety have been created, but the majority are in English and are not culturally relevant to all countries. This study aimed to translate and validate existing measures for future use in Hebrew-speaking adult populations. The Mathematics Anxiety Scale - UK (MAS-UK) was translated to Hebrew and adult participants completed it alongside the Mathematics Anxiety Rating Scale - Revised (MARS-R) and a general anxiety measure. Factor structures were explored for both the translated MAS-UK and a Hebrew version of the MARS-R, as well as being checked for reliability and convergent and discriminant validity. Results from a final sample of 213 participants, indicated the shortened, Hebrew version of the MAS-UK and the MARS-R are internally consistent and suitable for use in future maths anxiety research in adult Israeli populations. Findings regarding sex differences in maths anxiety are also discussed.
Children infer the behavioral contexts of unfamiliar foreign songs
Authors: Hilton Courtney B. , Crowley Liam , Yan Ran , Martin Alia , Mehr Samuel A
Published: April 2021

Music commonly appears in behavioral contexts in which it can be seen as playing a functional role, as when a parent sings a lullaby with the goal of soothing a baby. Humans readily make inferences, on the basis of the sounds they hear, regarding the behavioral contexts associated with music. These inferences tend to be accurate, even if the songs are in foreign languages or unfamiliar musical idioms; upon hearing a Blackfoot lullaby, a Korean listener with no experience of Blackfoot music, language, or broader culture is far more likely to judge the music’s function as “used to soothe a baby” than “used for dancing”. Are such inferences shaped by musical exposure or does the human mind naturally detect links between these kinds of musical form and function? Children’s developing experience of music provides a clear test of this question. We studied musical inferences in a large sample of children recruited online (𝑁 = 5,033), who heard dance, lullaby, and healing songs from 70 world cultures and who were tasked with guessing the original behavioral context in which each was performed. Children reliably inferred the original behavioral contexts with only minimal improvement in performance from the youngest (age 4) to the oldest (age 16), providing little evidence for an effect of experience. Children’s inferences tightly correlated with those of adults for the same songs, as collected from a similar online experiment (𝑁 = 98,150). Moreover, similar acoustical features were predictive of the inferences of both samples. These findings suggest that accurate inferences about the behavioral contexts of music, driven by universal links between form and function in music across cultures, do not always require extensive musical experience.

Analysis on carbon footprint: A case study of Gorkhapatra national daily in Nepal
Authors: Sharma Anukram , Poudyal Khem N , Bhattarai Nawraj
Published: April 2021

Study of carbon footprint is an emerging field which provides statistical analysis about the contribution of an activity on global climate change. Every human activity in daily life is achieved at the expense of those substances which directly or indirectly contribute to global warming. In this era of global communication, humans are habitual to know about the ongoing changes in the world. Newspapers are one of the reliable sources for getting updated about the global information. Paper-based newspapers come at the cost of greenhouse gas emissions. So, this article based upon an analysis of carbon footprint of Nepal’s national daily newspaper provides evaluation of each of the following: carbon emission during the manufacturing of raw materials, carbon emission from fuel consumption during transportation of raw materials, carbon emissions during the printing of newspaper and carbon emission from the fuel consumption during the transportation of printed newspaper. During the study period of 2019 A.D., the result shows that the total carbon emission of Gorkhapatra newspaper was found to be 2308.5 kg CO2e per ton. The upshot of this study provides not only thorough information about carbon emissions but also builds a foundation for calculation of carbon emissions from paper used in various sectors.

Attitudes towards sexual health education in schools: A national survey of parents in Canada
Authors: Wood Jessica , McKay Alexander , Wentland Jocelyn , Byers Sandra E.
Published: April 2021

School-based sexual health education plays a key role in providing young people with the information, motivation, and skills needed to enhance their sexual health. However, the extent and quality of sexual health education curricula varies across Canada. Though parents’ support is often considered when making curricular decisions, there is limited data examining parental attitudes towards sexual health education across Canada. In the current study, we examined parental attitudes towards school-based sexual health education in a national sample of Canadian parents. Using an online survey, we examined overall support for the inclusion of sexual health education in schools, perceived quality of the sexual health education children received, assessed support for 33 sexual health education topics, and determined if parental support varied across geographic regions. Participants were 2,000 parents with children attending elementary and/or secondary school in Canada. The majority of parents (85%) agreed that sexual health education should be taught in the schools. Support was high across all regions in Canada, ranging from 82% in Ontario to 91% in the Atlantic provinces. However, significantly fewer parents in Ontario and Quebec supported school-based sexual health education compared to other regions. Overall, parents want a wide variety of topics included in school-based sexual health education and support the teaching of foundational topics in the early and middle school grades. The current study is the first to use a national sample to examine parents’ attitudes towards sexual health education in schools. Results can inform provincial/territorial health education policies and national sexual health promotion strategies.
Notch receptors as a therapeutic target in melanoma: a narrative bibliographic review
Authors: Santos de Oliveira Filho Renato , Routh Peixoto Guilherme , Dal Collina Sangiuliano Lorena , Arcuschin de Oliveira Daniel
Published: April 2021

Melanoma is the skin cancer with higher mortality and more and more cases are arising every year. Overexpression of Notch signaling pathway elements have already been found in primary and metastatic melanoma lineages, and directly correlated to melanoma’s development, growth, angiogenesis, metastasis, and resistance to treatment. Thus, target therapy against Notch in melanoma presents a high potential for the treatment of this type of cancer.        In this review we aim to perform a narrative review on melanoma’s possible treatments targeting the Notch pathway. We searched literature about Notch signaling pathway inhibitors in human cutaneous melanoma published between 2000 and 2020 using MEDLINE (via PubMed), LILACS (via Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde) and Cochrane Library databases. The selected articles were analyzed, summarized, tabulated, and used to produce the present narrative review. The 24 selected articles, as well as articles referenced in them, presented as targeting therapy against Notch, γ-secretase inhibitors (GSIs), primarily, but also gliotoxin, honokiol, phospholipase A2, andrographolide and monoclonal antibodies, that, however, were not directly studied in melanoma. Another therapy that indirectly interfered in the Notch signaling pathway and was found in these articles were G9a inhibitors. Analyzing the collected data, it was possible to conclude that GSIs, more extensively studied, are probably not the best option for melanoma’s treatment, exceeding specific scenarios or through their concomitant use with other pathways inhibitors. The use of the other compounds, on the other hand, has greater potential, however, more studies are needed to prove its effectiveness and viability for the treatment of human cutaneous melanoma.

The relevance of the research topic is to study the methodological foundations of human capital assessment. Purpose: comparative analysis of fundamental methodological approaches to the valuation of human capital. Methods – analysis, synthesis, comparisons and etc. Results of work: the study of the methodology for assessing the development and functioning of human capital is particularly important in modern conditions. The priorities of the global economy indicate the restrictive impact of resource advantages, determining the dominant role of innovative and technological factors, which also include the level of accumulated human capital. Given the low resource intensity of developing economies, the analysis of methodological approaches to assessing the functioning and development of human capital is particularly relevant. Conclusions: the main methodological approaches of human capital valuation are studied. The evolution of their development in the context of various economic doctrines is considered. Formalized algorithms for determining the value of human capital in the context of cost and income evaluation principles are presented. The advantages and disadvantages of the studied methods are revealed and the possibilities of their synergistic use are determined.
