Cybersecurity Continuity Risks: Lessons Learned from the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors:   University of West Florida, Fezzey Tyler , Batchelor John , Burch Gerald , Reid Randall
Published: February 2023

The scope and breadth of the COVID-19 pandemic were unprecedented. This is especially true for business continuity and the related area of cybersecurity. Historically, business continuity and cybersecurity are viewed and researched as separate fields. This paper synthesizes the two disciplines as one, thus pointing out the need to address both topics simultaneously. This study identifies blind spots experienced by businesses as they navigated through the difficult time of the pandemic by using data collected during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. One major shortcoming was that most continuity and cybersecurity plans focused on single-axis threats. The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in multi-axes threats, pointing out the need for new business strategies moving forward. We performed multiple regression analysis and constructed a correlation matrix to capture significant relationships between percentage loss of revenue and levels of concern for different business activities moving forward. We assessed the most pervasive issues Florida small businesses faced in October 2020 and broke these down by the number of citations, the total number of impacts cited, and industry affectedness. Key security risks are identified and specific mitigation recommendations are given.
Lightweight Pairwise Key Distribution Scheme for IoTs
Authors:   California State University, Bakersfield, Kaur Kanwalinderjit
Published: February 2023

Embedding a pairwise key distribution approach in IoT systems is challenging as IoT devices have limited resources, such as memory, processing power, and battery life. This paper presents a secure and lightweight approach that is applied to IoT devices that are divided into Voronoi clusters. This proposed algorithm comprises XOR and concatenation operations for interactive authentication between the server and the IoT devices. Predominantly, the authentication is carried out by the server. It is observed that the algorithm is resilient against man-in-the-middle attacks, forward secrecy, Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, and offers mutual authentication. It is also observed that the given scheme has low communication and computing overheads compared to some existing methods.

Objetivo: Evaluar los indicadores físicos de la calidad de suelos sometidos a cuatro usos distintos en Lixisols en la
Objective: To evaluate the physical indicators of the quality of soils subjected to four different land uses in Lixisols from La Sabana in Huimanguillo, Tabasco, Mexico.
Design/methodology/approach: Nine variables were evaluated in soil samples from Lixisols located in La Sabana, Huimanguillo: infiltration rate, resistance to penetration, bulk density, total porosity, aggregate stability, thinning, depth of the horizon, volume and weight of soil loss. We used a completely randomized sample design, with a factor with four levels (each land use: pasture, rubber tree, rubber-cacao and rubber-mahogany), and five treatment repetitions; each sampling point of the plot with the five-of-golds method, with the exception of the use with pasture, which was linear.
Results: The reference soil group (RSG) corresponds to a Ferric Lixisol (Cutanic, Endoloamic, Epiarenic, Humic, Profondic), whose RSG has not been reported for the study area. The quality indicators are within acceptable limits. In soil loss, the pasture has conserved more over time, storing greater volume and weight of soil per hectare; the use with rubber (monoculture) has lost a greater amount of soil from the A horizon, evidenced by the decrease in its depth, volume and weight per hectare.
Limitations on study/implications: Until a few years ago, in the study area within La Sabana in Huimanguillo, Acrisol had been described as the dominant RSG.
Findings/conclusions: The presence of Acrisol in the study area is ruled out. Soil quality for all uses is acceptable.

Objective: To identify diet diversity and selection among white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus texanus Mearns) at UMA Rancho San Juan, Monclova, Coahuila, Mexico, from October 2018 to August 2019.
Design/methodology/approach: The composition of the white-tailed deer’s diet was identified by applying the microhistological technique. The line interception method was used to estimate the seasonal availability of forage. Diet and forage diversity were established based on the Shannon index, while their relation was identified using a simple linear regression. Diet selection was determined using the chi-squared test and Ivlev’s electivity index.
Results: We identified 49 species and 20 families in the diet, which comprised 49.84% shrubs, 18.38% succulents, 16.02% herbaceous plants, and 15.72% grasses. Deer selected Opuntia engelmannii, consumed Acacia rigidula and Cenchrus ciliaris in proportion to their availability, and consumed Acacia berlandieri, Jatropha dioica, and Karwinskia humboldtiana below their availability.
Study Limitations/Implications: This line of research should be further pursued, including nutritional quality aspects of the forage and diet variations between sampling years. We also recommend fostering the presence of herbaceous plants through habitat improvement techniques.
Conclusions: No relation was found between diet and forage diversity. When forage diversity decreased, grass intake increased.

Objective: To induce in vitro flowering of vanilla (Vanilla planifolia) with different plant growth regulators (PGRs) using the double-layer technique.
Design/methodology/approach: A layer of semi-solid Knudson C (KC) medium, added with 40 g L-1 sucrose, 15% coconut water (CW; v/v) and 7 g L-1 agar, was placed in 100 mL flasks. A liquid layer of the same composition without agar was placed on top. It was supplemented with different doses (mg L-1) of PGRs: 6-benzyladenine (BA) (7), thidiazuron (TDZ) (6), paclobutrazol (PBZ) (0.5) and gibberellic acid (AG3) (2). Plus two controls, C1: no PGRs + no CW; C2: no PGRs + CW. Vanilla shoots of 2 cm in length and with at least one axillary shoot were placed. They were incubated at a temperature of 26±2 °C day and 18 °C darkness, with light intensity of 55 µmol m-2 s-1 during 13 weeks. The number of shoots, leaves and roots was evaluated, as well as the length of shoots and fresh weight. Floral differentiation was evaluated at the tenth week by conventional microtechnique.
Results: The number shoots and leaves and shoot length were significantly higher in C2. The number of roots increased with PBZ 0.5 mgL-1. C1 and C2 promoted higher fresh weight. Floral differentiation was observed with AG3 2 and PBZ 0.5 mg L-1 treatments.
Limitations on study/implications: Further evaluation of other PGR doses and environmental conditions is required to achieve full floral differentiation of vanilla.
Findings/conclusions: CW increased vegetative growth. AG3 and PBZ showed early floral differentiation in Vanilla planifolia, which is the first report of this phenomenon for the species.

TEORI PERMINTAAN (Komparasi Dalam Perspektif Ekonomi Konvensional Dengan Ekonomi Islam)
Authors: Elvira Rini
Published: February 2023

The demand analysis is one of the most important analysis in microeconomics. Conventional economic outlook and Islamic economics about the real demand is almost the same. The fundamental difference lies in the source of shari'a law and restrictions that are not found in conventional demand theory. The problems are interesting to study are (1) how the theory of demand in the conventional economic perspective? (2) how the theory of demand in Islamic economic perspective? (3) What are the things that makes the conventional demand theory to the theory of Islamic demand to be a bit different? Demand theory to explain the nature of the relationship between the level of commodity prices with the requested number of commodities in which this relationship can be explained by the law of demand says that the lower the price of a commodity the more commodities amount requested, and vice versa. Analisis permintaan merupakan salah satu analisis yang paling penting dalam mikroekonomi. Pandangan ekonomi konvensional dan ekonomi Islam tentang permintaan sesungguhnya hampir sama. Perbedaan mendasar terletak pada sumber hukum dan batasan syari’ah yang tidak ditemui dalam teori permintaan konvensional. Permasalahan yang menarik untuk dikaji adalah (1) bagaimana teori permintaan dalam perspektif ekonomi konvensional? (2) bagaimana teori permintaan dalam perspektif ekonomi Islam? (3) Hal-hal apa yang membuat teori permintaan konvensional dengan teori permintaan Islami menjadi sedikit berbeda? Teori permintaan menjelaskan sifat hubungan antara tingkat harga komoditas dengan jumlah komoditas yang diminta dimana hubungan ini dapat dijelaskan melalui hukum permintaan yang mengatakan bahwa semakin rendah harga suatu komoditas maka akan semakin banyak jumlah komoditas yang diminta, begitupun sebaliknya.
LEMBAGA KEUANGAN ISLAM BANK
Authors: Suryani Irma
Published: February 2023

The main principle of operation of Islamic banks is based on Islamic shariah laws which are derived from the Qur'an and Sunnah. Islamic banks have a role as an intermediary (intermediary) between economic units that have excess funds (surplus units), with units other underfunded (deficit units) through banks such excess may be distributed to the parties that need thus providing menfaat to both sides. In Islamic banking, the relationship between the bank and its customers instead of the debtor to the creditor relationship, but a partnership (partner ship) between funders (Sohibulmaal) and manager (mudharib). Therefore, the profit rate of Islamic banks do not only affect the level of good results for shareholders but also affect the results that can be given to customers deposit funds. This partnership is a typical part of the process mechanisms for Islamic banks. Prinsip utama operasi bank syariah ini didasarkan pada syariah Islam yaitu hukum-hukum yang bersumber dari alqur‟an dan sunnah rasul. Bank syariah mempunyai peran sebagai lembaga perantara (intermediary) antara unit-unit ekonomi yang mengalami kelebihan dana (surplus units), dengan unit-unit yang lain yang mengalami kekurangan dana (devisit units) melalui bank kelebihan tersebut dapat disalurkan kepada pihak-pihak yang memerlukan sehingga memberikan menfaat kepada kedua belah pihak. Dalam Bank syariah, hubungan antara bank dengan nasabahnya bukan hubungan debitur dengan kreditur, melainkan hubungan kemitraan (patner ship) antara penyandang dana (sohibul maal) dengan pengelola (mudharib). Oleh karena itu tingkat laba bank syariah tidak saja berpengaruh terhadap tingkat baik hasil untuk para pemegang saham tetapi juga berpengaruh terhadap bagi hasil yang dapat diberikan kepada nasabah penyimpanan dana. Hubungan kemitraan ini merupakan bagian yang khas dari proses berjalannya mekanisme bank syariah.

The efficiency of budgetary funding for general secondary education is a quite relevant issue, as such funding requires a significant proportion of budget resources spent on education. International researchers have suggested different approaches to determining this efficiency. The article examines if it’s possible to use one of the modifications of the Data envelopment analysis (DEA) method to assess the efficiency of budget financing of general secondary education. This method was tested on the data on the financing of schools in the Zaporizhzhia region of Ukraine in 2020 using resources from four types of local communities budgets (regional budget, city budget, district budget and the LC budget). The resulting indicators of the model (outputs of funding) have been constructed based on the results of the nationwide external independent assessment in several subjects, which the students obtained after graduation. The authors offered several variants of the resulting indicator and calculated the integrated efficiency indicator. It is shown that it is partly possible to solve the problems of optimization of the network of secondary education institutions by the simulation approach using DEA. The quality of education is generally lower in small general secondary education institutions, as such they need to be reorganized. At the same time, other school activity indicators that may not be reflected in education statistics need to be taken into account when making final management decisions to optimize the school network, in addition to the results of a nationwide independent external evaluation. In particular, economic and social factors should be further considered, such as the possibility of economic development of the settlement at the expense of local resources, infrastructure, proximity to markets, energy factors, etc. In this case, the methods of economic and mathematical simulation are applicable.

The market of educational services requires alignment of stakeholder expectations with the level of preparation of specialists by higher education institutions. Applicants and students expect that the knowledge and skills obtained during their studies are sufficient to get the first job in their specialty. Potential employers expect competences sufficient for the performance of job duties. The purpose of the research is to compare the expectations of higher education applicants and employers regarding the learning outcomes and competences obtained by graduates of the specialty «Finance, Banking and Insurance». The objectives of the study are: to investigate the opinion of higher education applicants of the specialty «Finance, Banking and Insurance» of Poltava State Agrarian University regarding their professional intentions and satisfaction with the formation of professional competencies; to study the opinion of stakeholders on the need for training specialists and implementation of the educational and professional program «Finance, Banking and Insurance» in the Poltava region; to compare expectations of higher education applicants. Additionally, knowledge of banking and related products is required in the banking sector, knowledge of financial management is mandatory in the real sector, etc. Students' and employers' expectations regarding graduates' ability to work with modern financial and accounting computer programs and databases are the same. English language requirements differ – students consider it as mandatory and employers consider it as desirable. At the same time, «soft skills» of communicative competences and additional social skills (in particular, the ability to work in a team, communicate with clients) are mandatory requirements.
STUDY OF THE READINESS OF THE PROSPECTIVE PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHERS TO WORK WITH INTELLECTUALLY GIFTED PUPILS

Published: February 2023

The article deals with the actual problem of professional training of the prospective primary school teachers to work with intellectually gifted pupils. It has been shown that giftedness is determined by both innate gifts and social conditions and, of course, needs support and help on a part of a trained teacher. The level of readiness of prospective primary school teachers to work with intellectually gifted pupils in modern conditions has been investigated. For this purpose, a scientific study was conducted in 2021-2022 studying years in which the students of the 1st and 2nd courses of the Institute of Pedagogy of Zhytomyr Ivan Franko State University participated. The conducted research allows formulating certain methodical recommendations for the professional training of prospective teachers to work with intellectually gifted pupils. These recommendations outline the following imperatives: 1) there is a need to introduce a special training course into the educational process; 2) it is relevant to include in psychological and pedagogical disciplines the issues that characterize the peculiarities of working with gifted pupils; 3) the need to develop students' motivation for self-development and self-improvement is very important; 4) it is expedient to include psychological trainings, project tasks, methods of innovative computer training in the studying disciplines; 5) the prospective teachers should be motivated to study modern psychological and pedagogical literature in this field, since working with gifted pupils requires special training both in higher education and in further independent professional activity. The promising aspects of the research include research in the indicated direction using the synergistic concept «talent is the sum of talents and abilities». This approach corresponds to the synergistic principle of superadditivity («the whole is greater than its parts») when any system reveals certain systemic properties that are not inherent in the properties of its components. Under such conditions, the problem of human development in the context of «heredity VS environment» can be resolved.

Representations of Space and "Restoring Order" in Peter Eschenloer's Wrocław Chronicle
Authors:   Univerzita Pardubice, Čapský Martin
Published: February 2023

The author analyses Peter Eschenloer’s Wrocław Chronicle from the second half of the fi fteenth century. His interpretations are based on the theory of the relationship between power, space and representation. The Wrocław chronicler simultaneously defended the denial of the city’s obedience to the Bohemian king (who was in dispute with the pope) and condemned the riots provoked by the city’s municipality. The key part of the German-language version of Eschenloer’s chronicle takes place during a period when the town council faced a series of attacks to its authority. Eschenloer presents the reader with a “representation of (dis)order” in the form of the breakdown and disunity of the town and its consequences, laying groundwork that enables him to emphasize the legitimacy of the town councillors’ actions and present the bounds of their authority as inclusive of all public space.

Aristocratic Enclaves as a Foreign Legal Element in Urban Space
Authors:   Charles University, Prague, Starý Marek
Published: February 2023

Disciplination of the population in the medieval and early modern city may have been complicated by the presence of an alien element, which in the bourgeois environment was the nobility. In many cases, the nobility was able to acquire town houses and sometimes even managed to have them exempted from the jurisdiction of the municipal authorities and registered in the land tables. Be that as it may, these houses constituted legal enclaves of their kind. The study examines the legal conditions of these enclaves against the background of the legal developments in the Kingdom of Bohemia and Margraviate of Moravia in the fourteenth–seventeenth centuries and tries both to summarize the existing knowledge and to draw attention to some better though lesser-known sources that document this issue.

The Baruchs moved from supplies and trading to industrial operations. Although the factories producing fl our, bread and building materials operated in the Krakow area, they mainly supplied the city and the Austrian army stationed there. The family achieved a high social status, which was manifested during public ceremonies. International and local competition led them to abandon their industrial activity.

Housing Construction and the Role of the Neighbourhood Unit in Ljubljana under Socialism
Authors:   Study Centre for National Reconciliation: Ljubljana, SI, Piškurić Jelka
Published: February 2023

After World War II, the improvement of housing conditions was one of the Yugoslav political and social care priorities. Although the guidelines for housing development were politically planned, the authorities had to adapt to the increasing demand of the growing population. The shift in housing policy from the 1960s made it possible for Slovenian architects to apply the idea of a neighbourhood unit in organized housing construction. Planned along major arterial roads into Ljubljana, the new neighbourhood units were envisaged to meet all the workers’ needs, off ering housing with the infrastructure necessary for quality living. They never fully developed into social hubs with all public services; nevertheless, they still represented a huge change in quality of life. Over the decades, new neighbourhoods signifi cantly changed the appearance of Ljubljana. URL: https://www.upjs.sk/filozoficka-fakulta/katedra-historie/10984/
Sacred Spaces and Disability: African Women Theology of Disability as Pastoral Praxis
Authors: Chisale Sinenhlanhla S.
Published: February 2023

Generally, all religions in Africa including Christianity are numerically dominated by women, yet women experience exclusion and oppression in sacred spaces. This oppression and exclusion are worse for women and girls with disabilities due to the ableist theologies perpetuated in spaces of worship. This is enforced by the regulations that govern the physical structures and boundaries of spaces of faith. As a result, religious spatial politics is intertwined with how the body physically and spiritually conforms to the regulations of a certain religion. In conservative forms of Christianity, the regulations that govern the structures and boundaries are informed by the Mosaic law, in particular the Leviticus or holiness code that emphasises purity and holiness of the body. The naive hermeneutics of the holiness code is used to exclude a body with a disability from sacred spaces: the exclusion is visible for women and girls with disabilities, because of the feminisation of religion and ableist hermeneutics of religion. Written from an African women theology of disability approach, the aim of this article is to explore how women with disabilities negotiate their faith in ableist Christian spaces of worship and to describe African women theology of disability as a pastoral praxis that has a potential for promoting inclusion in Christian spaces.

This article will examine how Sarah Waters and Laura Purcell use the corset as a narrative tool in Fingersmith (2002) and The Corset (2018), and how placing these texts alongside Victorian writing on the corset influences our understanding of the narratives. In Fingersmith, there are many allusions to Maud Lilly practising tight-lacing, having been laced into tight dresses to ‘give her the figure of a lady’ from a young age. When these tight laces are loosened, there is a suggestion of another Maud almost breaking out from the sartorial restriction. There are two corsets in The Corset which are of interest: first, a corset made by the narrator, Ruth, for herself that acts as a physical and emotional support system; second, one that Ruth makes for the daughter of the woman for whom she works. This latter corset is made by Ruth to ‘squeeze the evil out’ of the daughter; when Ruth is later accused of murder, she considers the corset to be the murder weapon. This article, therefore, considers how Victorian corset narratives, when placed alongside modern scholarship on the Victorian corset influences the twenty-first century reconstruction of the past and its sartorial/somatic imagery.

There exist several databases that provide virus-host protein interactions. While most provide curated records of interacting virus-host protein pairs, information on the strain-specific virulence factors or protein domains involved, is lacking. Some databases offer incomplete coverage of influenza strains because of the need to sift through vast amounts of literature (including those of major viruses including HIV and Dengue, besides others). None have offered complete, strain specific protein-protein interaction records for the influenza A group of viruses. In this paper, we present a comprehensive network of predicted domain-domain interaction(s) (DDI) between influenza A virus (IAV) and mouse host proteins, that will allow the systematic study of disease factors by taking the virulence information (lethal dose) into account. From a previously published dataset of lethal dose studies of IAV infection in mice, we constructed an interacting domain network of mouse and viral protein domains as nodes with weighted edges. The edges were scored with the Domain Interaction Statistical Potential (DISPOT) to indicate putative DDI. The virulence network can be easily navigated via a web browser, with the associated virulence information (LD50 values) prominently displayed. The network will aid influenza A disease modeling by providing strain-specific virulence levels with interacting protein domains. It can possibly contribute to computational methods for uncovering influenza infection mechanisms mediated through protein domain interactions between viral and host proteins.

Background: With the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD), there are various changes in metabolites. However, the effect of these metabolites on the etiology, progression and prognosis of CKD remains unclear.

Objective: We aimed to identify significant metabolic pathways in CKD progression by screening metabolites through metabolic profiling, thus identifying potential targets for CKD treatment.

Methods: Clinical data were collected from 145 CKD participants. GFR (mGFR) was measured by the iohexol method and participants were divided into four groups according to their mGFR. Untargeted metabolomics analysis was performed via UPLC-MS/MSUPLC–MSMS/MS assays. Metabolomic data were analyzed by MetaboAnalyst 5.0, one-way ANOVA, principal component analysis (PCA), and partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) to identify differential metabolites for further analysis. The open database sources of MBRole2.0, including KEGG and HMDB, were used to identify significant metabolic pathways in CKD progression.

Results: Four metabolic pathways were classified as important in CKD progression, among which the most significant was caffeine metabolism. A total of 12 differential metabolites were enriched in caffeine metabolism, four of which decreased with the deterioration of the CKD stage, and two of which increased with the deterioration of the CKD stage. Of the four decreased metabolites, the most important was caffeine.

Conclusion: Caffeine metabolism appears to be the most important pathway in the progression of CKD as identified by metabolic profiling. Caffeine is the most important metabolite that decreases with the deterioration of the CKD stage.

Prostaglandins (PGs), locally acting lipid signals, regulate female reproduction, including oocyte development. However, the cellular mechanisms of PG action remain largely unknown. One cellular target of PG signaling is the nucleolus. Indeed, across organisms, loss of PGs results in misshapen nucleoli, and changes in nucleolar morphology are indicative of altered nucleolar function. A key role of the nucleolus is to transcribe ribosomal RNA (rRNA) to drive ribosomal biogenesis. Here we take advantage of the robust, in vivo system of Drosophila oogenesis to define the roles and downstream mechanisms whereby PGs regulate the nucleolus. We find that the altered nucleolar morphology due to PG loss is not due to reduced rRNA transcription. Instead, loss of PGs results in increased rRNA transcription and overall protein translation. PGs modulate these nucleolar functions by tightly regulating nuclear actin, which is enriched in the nucleolus. Specifically, we find that loss of PGs results in both increased nucleolar actin and changes in its form. Increasing nuclear actin, by either genetic loss of PG signaling or overexpression of nuclear targeted actin (NLS-actin), results in a round nucleolar morphology. Further, loss of PGs, overexpression of NLS-actin or loss of Exportin 6, all manipulations that increase nuclear actin levels, results in increased RNAPI-dependent transcription. Together these data reveal PGs carefully balance the level and forms of nuclear actin to control the level of nucleolar activity required for producing fertilization competent oocytes.
Galectin functions in cancer-associated inflammation and thrombosis

Galectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins that regulate many cellular functions including proliferation, adhesion, migration, and phagocytosis. Increasing experimental and clinical evidence indicates that galectins influence many steps of cancer development by inducing the recruitment of immune cells to the inflammatory sites and modulating the effector function of neutrophils, monocytes, and lymphocytes. Recent studies described that different isoforms of galectins can induce platelet adhesion, aggregation, and granule release through the interaction with platelet-specific glycoproteins and integrins. Patients with cancer and/or deep-venous thrombosis have increased levels of galectins in the vasculature, suggesting that these proteins could be important contributors to cancer-associated inflammation and thrombosis. In this review, we summarize the pathological role of galectins in inflammatory and thrombotic events, influencing tumor progression and metastasis. We also discuss the potential of anti-cancer therapies targeting galectins in the pathological context of cancer-associated inflammation and thrombosis.
Irregular sleep and cardiometabolic risk: Clinical evidence and mechanisms
Authors: Zhang Chengjie , Qin Gang
Published: February 2023

Sleep regularity is an essential part of the multidimensional sleep health framework. The phenomenon of irregular sleep patterns is widespread in contemporary lifestyles. This review synthesizes clinical evidence to summarize the measures of sleep regularity and discusses the role of different sleep regularity indicators in developing cardiometabolic diseases (coronary heart disease, hypertension, obesity, and diabetes). Existing literature has proposed several measurements to assess sleep regularity, mainly including the standard deviation (SD) of sleep duration and timing, sleep regularity index (SRI), interdaily stability (IS), and social jetlag (SJL). Evidence on associations between sleep variability and cardiometabolic diseases varies depending on the measure used to characterize variability in sleep. Current studies have identified a robust association between SRI and cardiometabolic diseases. In comparison, the association between other metrics of sleep regularity and cardiometabolic diseases was mixed. Meanwhile, the associations of sleep variability with cardiometabolic diseases differ across the population. SD of sleep characteristics or IS may be more consistently associated with HbA1c in patients with diabetes compared with the general population. The association between SJL and hypertension for patients with diabetes was more accordant than in the general population. Interestingly, the age-stratified association between SJL and metabolic factors was observed in the present studies. Furthermore, the relevant literature was reviewed to generalize the potential mechanisms through which irregular sleep increases cardiometabolic risk, including circadian dysfunction, inflammation, autonomic dysfunction, hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis disorder, and gut dysbiosis. Health-related practitioners should give more attention to the role of sleep regularity on human cardiometabolic in the future.

This paper presents a new Bayesian method for analyzing Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) data and applies this method in a re-analysis of data from a previous EMA study. The analysis method has been implemented as a freely available Python package EmaCalc, RRID:SCR 022943. The analysis model can use EMA input data including nominal categories in one or more situation dimensions, and ordinal ratings of several perceptual attributes. The analysis uses a variant of ordinal regression to estimate the statistical relation between these variables. The Bayesian method has no requirements related to the number of participants or the number of assessments by each participant. Instead, the method automatically includes measures of the statistical credibility of all analysis results, for the given amount of data. For the previously collected EMA data, the analysis results demonstrate how the new tool can handle heavily skewed, scarce, and clustered data that were collected on ordinal scales, and present results on interval scales. The new method revealed results for the population mean that were similar to those obtained in the previous analysis by an advanced regression model. The Bayesian approach automatically estimated the inter-individual variability in the population, based on the study sample, and could show some statistically credible intervention results also for an unseen random individual in the population. Such results may be interesting, for example, if the EMA methodology is used by a hearing-aid manufacturer in a study to predict the success of a new signal-processing method among future potential customers.
