Published: September 2023

The front side of the coin represents business potential, while the reverse side depicts the associated business hazards, indicating that risk is an important component of enterprise. The root cause of the risk, which can be used to decide what action to take, can be difficult to identify, when the hazard is not clearly characterized, as this may result in action simply covering the risk. Similar concerns exist in the honey watermelon business. This study involved 28 fruit traders (retailers) who were selected based on the census method. This research has three objectives. First, find out the root cause (risk) of the honey water melon trade to fruit traders in Bengkulu City by using the Ishikawa diagram analysis tool (risk causal map analysis). The research results obtained are prejudiced. Second, to find out the perceptions of fruit traders on the risks of the honey watermelon trade in Bengkulu City using the Likert-scale-analysis tool, the results are 75% categorized as neutral. Third, to find out the actions of the trader group on the risk of buying and selling honey melon.  iIt is  mostly carried out in Bengkulu City using a qualitative descriptive analysis tool, and the research results obtained by the traders choose to do research (examine) and carry out risk identification.

Published: September 2023

Temanggung Regency is one of the areas that distributes the largest tobacco products in Central Java Province. The strategic location on the slopes of a mountain makes tobacco plants suitable to be used as a source of agriculture in the region. The large number of agricultural lands spread across Temanggung Regency provides abundant agricultural products. But in reality, the development of this tobacco farmer business has experienced many problems, such as unstable selling prices, decreased farmer productivity, and changing harvest times. This research study aims to analyze the factors that influence the income of tobacco farmers in Temanggung Regency. This study uses primary data through direct observation and direct interviews with tobacco farmers using questionnaires and secondary data as research support. The results of this study indicate that the marketing of tobacco produced by farmers has several channels such as warehouses, brokers, factories, tengquats, and small traders. Suggestions for further research by adding marketing margin analysis and added value analysis to enrich the research discussion.

Revisiting The Ekitiparapo Liberation War After 137 Years
Authors: Ilesanmi Dele A.
Published: September 2023

The Ekitiparapo War (also known as the Kiriji War) took place in the Yoruba hinterland from 1870 to 1886 between the Ekitis and the Oyo-Ibadans. The war tore apart the Yoruba land for not less than sixteen years, which was perhaps the world’s longest internecine war. The epicentre of the Yoruba military superpower, Ibadan, was destroyed, and their imperialist agenda ended brusquely. The study investigated the Ekitiparapo War, succinctly introduced the Ekitis, who were the fulcrum on which the war revolved, and set the record straight by giving concisely the authentic account of the war to mark Ekiti Independence Day after 137 years. Furthermore, the study established that the appropriate name for the war is “Ekitiparapo War,” not “Kiriji War,” and the war was fought for sixteen (16) gory years, regardless of the differing accounts of the dates it started and ended. The author employed secondary data by consulting relevant books, journals, newspapers, and the internet, including oral interviews. The author concludes by recommending that Ekiti Independence Celebration Day should start from 23rd September to 1st October of every year.

Published: September 2023

Post-diagnostic support can be useful for any autistic person, but it may be especially important for young adults (16 – 25 years) who may be negotiating their autistic identity while also navigating the transition to adulthood. Yet there is a lack of tailored support for this group. In this study, we document the process of co-designing a six-session online peer support program aiming to support young people to navigate their autistic identity in the transition to adulthood. Through documenting discussions within our research team, we provide three key reflections underpinning the success of our co-design process: (1) maximizing success through preparation; (2) facilitating effective, respectful communication, and (3) empowering meaningful collaboration. We also collected qualitative feedback from program attendees, which we analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. This feedback highlighted how attendees appreciated the opportunity for self-discovery and to develop their understanding of autism. They also valued the social connections formed during the program. Finally, they said they benefited from the practical strategies they developed. Overall, these insights contribute to the growing body of knowledge on participatory autism research and highlight good practices when meaningfully involving autistic people in shaping the support programs that directly impact their lives. The peer support program, Understanding You, Discovering You, warrants further, more rigorous evaluation in future studies.

The Promises and Pitfalls of LLMs as Feedback Providers: A Study of Prompt Engineering and the Quality of AI-Driven Feedback
Authors: Jacobsen Lucas Jasper , Weber Kira Elena
Published: September 2023

Artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education (HE) is reshaping teaching and learning, and feedback provided by large language models (LLMs) seems to have an impact on student learning. However, few empirical studies have compared the quality of LLM feedback with the feedback quality of real persons. Therefore, this study addresses the following questions: What prompts are needed to ensure high-quality LLM feedback in HE? How does feedback from novices, experts, and LLMs differ in terms of quality and content accuracy? We developed a learning goal with three errors and a theory-based manual to evaluate prompt quality. Specifically, three prompts of varying quality were created and used to generate feedback from ChatGPT-4. We provided the highest-quality prompt to novices and experts. Our results showed that only the best prompt produced consistently high-quality feedback. Additionally, LLM and expert feedback were significantly better than novice feedback, with LLM feedback being both faster and better than expert feedback in the categories of explanation, questions, and specificity. This suggests that LLM feedback can be a high-quality and efficient alternative to expert feedback. However, we postulate that prompt quality is crucial, highlighting the need for prompting guidelines and human expertise.

Intersubject correlations in reward and mentalizing brain circuits separately predict persuasiveness of two types of ISIS video propaganda
Authors: Cohen Michael Stewart , Leong Yuan Chang , Ruby Keven , Pape Robert A. , Decety Jean
Published: September 2023

The Islamist group ISIS has been particularly successful at recruiting Westerners as terrorists. A hypothesized explanation is their simultaneous use of two types of propaganda: Heroic narratives, emphasizing individual glory, alongside Social narratives, which emphasize oppression against Islamic communities. In the current study, functional MRI was used to measure brain responses to short ISIS propaganda videos distributed online. Participants were shown 4 Heroic and 4 Social videos categorized as such by another independent group of subjects. Persuasiveness was measured using post-scan predictions of recruitment effectiveness. Inter-subject correlation (ISC) analyses were used to measure commonality of brain activity time courses across individuals. ISCs in ventral striatum predicted rated persuasiveness for Heroic videos, while ISCs in mentalizing and default networks, especially in dmPFC, predicted rated persuasiveness for Social videos. This work builds on past findings that engagement of reward circuitry and mentalizing brain regions predicts preferences and persuasion. The observed dissociation as a function of stimulus type is novel, as is the finding that intersubject synchrony in ventral striatum predicts rated persuasiveness. These exploratory results identify possible neural mechanisms by which extremists successfully recruit prospective members and specifically support the hypothesized distinction between Heroic and Social narratives for ISIS propaganda.
Integrated Information Theory, Pseudoscience, and Mainstream Theories of Consciousness: A Call for 'The Science We Need'

Pathways from Norms to Intentions: a Developmental Perspective
Authors: Pinho Ana , Molleman Lucas , Braams Barbara R , van den Bos Wouter
Published: September 2023

Intentions are one of the strongest predictors of human behavior, and social norms play a crucial role in shaping intentions. Yet, it is unclear how these norms promote novel intentions and whether underlying mechanisms differ across life stages. We examined how group norms impact intentions directly and indirectly by altering individuals' personal norms, and how the strength of these effects vary with social similarity and age. We compared intention change pathways between emerging adults (ages 18-24) and adults (ages 35-45) in two controlled two-wave experiments (total N=336). We hypothesized that emerging adults, who are still forming their identity, would be more influenced by group norms, particularly indirectly via norm internalization. We show that group norms have the potential to promote the formation of socially desirable personal norms and intentions. Moreover, the impact of group norms on intention change occurs both directly and indirectly via norm internalization. Contrary to our predictions we did not find evidence that age moderates the impact of group norms on intentions. However, only emerging adults are more strongly influenced by the social similarity of the source. Together, our findings suggest that there are two independent pathways in which group norms shape intentions, and the relative contribution of these pathways is rather stable from emerging adulthood onwards.
Psychiatric Models: Reconciling Neurobiology, Metaphor, and Uncertainty
Authors: Syed Adnan , Jacob Michael
Published: September 2023

Explanatory models of the mind inform our working assumptions about mental illness with direct implications for clinical practice. Neurobiological models assert that the mind can be understood in terms of genetics, chemistry, and neuronal circuits. Growing evidence suggests that clinical deployment of neuroessentialist models of illness may have unintended adverse effects on patient attitudes, public perception, provider empathy, and the effectiveness of psychiatric treatment. Despite calls for explanatory pluralism as a philosophical structure for psychiatry, neurobiology continues to hold an elevated status among psychiatrists and the public alike. New approaches are needed to reconcile neurobiological models with the uncertainty of science, clinical practice, and the knottiness of finding language to describe (let alone explain) the experience of mental illness. To address this conceptual gap, we draw upon interdisciplinary sources to examine the meta-cognitive process of explanatory reasoning that clinicians and their patients use to develop models of the mind. We propose a clinical approach to explanatory reasoning based on logical inference, the considered use of metaphor, and the tolerance of uncertainty. Our goal is to bring attention to the possibility that uncertainty, metaphor, and neurobiological models share a common logical framework, and that their reconciliation has the potential to enrich our understanding of mental life and clinical practice.
Exploring the intersections of numerical and music cognition
Authors: Vuvan Dominique T , Sullivan Jess
Published: September 2023

AbstractAre there cognitive connections between humans’ ability to make music, and their understanding of math and numbers? This question has motivated both centuries of speculation across the fields of philosophy and education and an increasing number of empirical studies of the topic. We review some of the most promising work at the intersection of numerical and music cognition, and establish its relevance both to the applied sphere (e.g., education) and to core theoretical issues in the cognitive sciences. Next, we identify some notable limitations within the literature, and attempt to explain some of the likely causes of these limitations. Finally, we propose specific themes of future focus (spatialization and the mapping between symbolic and nonsymbolic representations) for understanding whether there is shared cognitive architecture for reasoning about number and math.
Item Parameter Calibration in the Multidimensional Graded Response Model with High Dimensional Tests
Authors: McClure Kenneth , Jacobucci Ross
Published: September 2023

Multidimensional item response models, such as the multidimensional graded response model (MGRM), are becoming increasingly common in educational and psychological research in part due to the associated advantages of multidimensional computerized adaptive testing. These methods, however, require known or calibrated item parameters. Existing research on item parameter calibration for the MGRM is largely restricted to tests with simple structure and few dimensions. Given the increasing complexity and dimensionality of psychological measures, the current paper examines MGRM item parameter calibration for higher dimensional settings using Metropolis-Hastings Robbins-Monro (MH-RM) estimation. Complex test structure and non-normal latent traits are also examined. Results suggest that test and trait characteristics impact item parameter recovery though discrimination and boundary parameters are differentially influenced. Calibration samples of 1000 respondents appear sufficient for many research settings. MH-RM estimation facilitates time-efficient item calibration for high dimensional tests. Findings support the feasibility of calibrating multidimensional item banks for psychological research.
Are Australian students’ academic skills declining? Interrogating 25 years of national and international standardised assessment data
Authors: Larsen Sally A.
Published: September 2023

Standardised tests of academic basic skills are an established feature of contemporary Australian schooling. Results of assessments are widely reported and influence educational policymaking. Australian national educational priorities are linked to educational system accountability via the results of standardised tests. Given the influence and importance of assessment data, this paper aimed to collate publicly-available data from four assessment programs undertaken by Australian students and document long-term trends in average achievement across all available assessments. Results are reported from three international assessments, the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS), the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS), and the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), along with the only Australian assessment, the National Assessment Program: Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN). Of these four, only PISA demonstrated systematic declines in average scores over time. For the remaining three programs, results in the primary school grades showed initial improvements that were subsequently maintained over remaining iterations of the tests. In secondary school, students’ average results neither declined nor increased appreciably over time. The consensus of the four largest assessment programs undertaken by Australian students since 1995, fails to support the prevailing narrative of a broadscale decline in academic skills attainment.
Perceptions of Artificial Intelligence system's aptitude to judge morality and competence amidst the rise of chatbots
Authors: Oliveira Manuel J. B. , Brands Justus , Mashudi Judith , Liefooghe Baptist , Hortensius Ruud
Published: September 2023

This paper examines how humans judge the capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) to evaluate human attributes, specifically focusing on two key dimensions of human social evaluation: morality and competence. Furthermore, it investigates the impact of exposure to advanced Large Language Models on these perceptions. In three studies (combined N = 200), we tested the hypothesis that people will find it less plausible that AI is capable of judging the morality conveyed by a behavior compared to judging its competence. Participants estimated the plausibility of AI origin for a set of written impressions of positive and negative behaviors related to morality and competence. Studies 1 and 3 supported our hypothesis that people would be more inclined to attribute AI origin to competence-related impressions compared to morality-related ones. In Study 2, we found this effect only for impressions of positive behaviors. Additional exploratory analyses clarified that the differentiation between the AI origin of competence and morality judgments persisted throughout the first half year after the public launch of popular AI chatbot (i.e., ChatGPT) and could not be explained by participants' general attitudes toward AI, or the actual source of the impressions (i.e., AI or human). These findings suggest an enduring belief that AI is less adept at assessing the morality compared to the competence of human behavior, even as AI capabilities continued to advance.
Psychosocial predictors of self-medication among emerging adults; A mix method study
Authors: Asif Bushra
Published: September 2023

Objective: The concept of self-medication is becoming more common across the globe. The purpose of the present study was to explore the psycho-social predictors contribute towards the behavior of self-medication among adults. Method: The sequential exploratory design of mixed method was conducted through purposive sampling into two phases. The qualitative phase was done by selecting the participants aged between 18 to 25 years. The focus group (N=4) has been conducted with the participants (N=24) with the history of taking self-medication living in the catchment area (Islamabad & Rawalpindi) of the study. All the focus groups were conducted face to face by the researcher after completion of the demographic information. The groups were audio-recorded after getting the written informed consent. The transcripts were analyzed using a systematic approach that incorporates content analysis. In the second phase, psychological scale that developed from phase I, has been administered through Purposive sampling technique of 300 emerging adults (18-25 Years) from different colleges and universities. The data was analyzed by using SPSS (Correlation, ANOVA and Independent sample t test). Results: In the qualitative part, the themes that emerged after analyses were combined under the main three headings: Psychological predictors, Social, and high self-medication illnesses. The main results indicated that to get instant relief, time saving due to hectic routines, negligence from the doctors and often lack of money were the main factors of self-medication. In the Phase II, scale administration has been completed showed prevalence of commonly identified illnesses was 45.8% for stomach pain as well as flu, 42.9% throat infection, hair fall 36.9%, confusion or stress 32.2%, weight loss 31.2%, tension 30.2%, weight gain 28.9% and 17.9% skin whitening. Thus, the present study supports in the understanding of predictors which strengthen culturally trends of self-medication behavior in Pakistan.
What do experts mean by “misinformation” in the COVID-19 era? A critical scoping review protocol
Authors: Chaufan Claudia , Hemsing Natalie , Heredia Camila , McDonald Jennifer
Published: September 2023

In April 2020, the World Health Organization released the report Managing the COVID-19 infodemic: A call to action, declaring that “the 2020 pandemic of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) [had] been accompanied by a massive ‘infodemic.’” Soon afterwards UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres tweeted - also alluding to COVID-19 - that “a tsunami of misinformation, scapegoating and scaremongering [had] been unleashed” also in relation to COVID-19. The tweet was followed by a March 2021 report from the Centre for Health Security at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, warning that “health-related misinformation and disinformation” were undermining the public response to COVID-19, and by a February 2022 US Department of Homeland Security infographic, Disinformation Stops With You”, alerting about the dangers of “misinformation”, “disinformation”, and “malinformation” – dubbed MDM - distinguishing these terms based on the presumed intentionality of the agents producing or spreading them. However, there has been scant interrogation of expert meanings of MDM in the COVID-19 context and of the implications of the premises underlying these meanings for public policy, equity, and civil, social, and political rights. Drawing from the traditions of critical policy, discourse, and document analysis, we will apply Arksey O’Malley’s framework, enhanced by Levac et al.’s team-based approach, to conduct a critical scoping review of the medical and social scientific peer-reviewed literature, identifying, summarizing, and appraising expert meanings of MDM. We will also assess the implications of our findings for the health and well-being of populations affected by policies informed by dominant concepts of MDM.

Empowering Those Closest to the Ground: Scrutinizing the Institutional Response to Energy Poverty in Rotterdam
Authors: Zabel Luisa , Hendlin Yogi Hale
Published: September 2023

The sudden extreme rise in energy prices across Europe and elsewhere due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine has made apparent that even in affluent countries like the Netherlands, energy poverty, which comprises the combination of low income, high energy bills, and a home of poor energetic quality, poses a serious threat to numerous people’s livability. Subsequent increased public and policy scrutiny has precipitated a more diversified stakeholder landscape on a local level. This paper investigates the institutional response to energy poverty and the lived experience of involved stakeholders in the urban area of Rotterdam. Through fifteen semi-structured interviews with the local municipality, housing corporations, social entrepreneurs, foundations and community organizations five main themes emerged summarizing the key challenges and opportunities around the energy poverty response. Namely: the effects of the energy crisis on residents, the problem’s complexity, collaboration among stakeholders, the need for funding as well as the link between energy poverty, and the energy transition. Implications from this research suggest a need for a more prominent focus on efficiency policy, the provision of long-term structural subsidies (to refurbish insulated housing stock rather than ad hoc monetary payouts to help the energy poor cope with price surges), as well as the need for stakeholders to assume responsibility and accountability through more extensive internal and external collaboration. Investing in sustainability and social justice solutions through clean energy for heating and state-of-the-art insulation results in the single action of improving housing stock multisolving for the various problems resulting in energy poverty.
Touching Back while Black: Self-Defence and the Politics of Black US Citizenship in Paul Green’s In Abraham’s Bosom
Authors: Schiller Angela M. Farr
Published: September 2023

Considering the critical methods of performance studies, critical race studies, and sensorial studies, this article analyses the creation of social identities through the rubric of touch – a tactile sensibility that provides a cultural foundation for the mis perception of bodies as racialized subjects. Touch has been an under-researched and under-utilized methodology for understanding how race works. Specifically attending to the historical period of Jim Crow in the early twentieth century because of its deeply held investments in the politics of separateness, this article examines Paul Green’s 1926 Pulitzer Prize–winning play In Abraham’s Bosom as one of the rare dramas during this period that actually showed Black acts of touching back on the stage. Green challenges his audience to contend with an oppressive Jim Crow racial regime that forced African Americans to establish alternative modes of freedom outside of more traditional expressions of autonomy and citizenship. Reading Green’s work in this way allows for a consideration of the differing strategies at play in the fight toward equality for Black Americans. Taking up tactility, in the context of the United States, as a cultural system used to mark bodies as raced and weaponized to uphold white supremacy, this essay approaches touch as a performative act that is meaningful, effective, and consequential, thereby grappling with the present ways that American society underestimates the social, political, and cultural power that touch wields in our understanding of social identities.
Finding T.S. Eliot’s “Little Devils”: Marionettes and Sweeney Agonistes
Authors: Dilek Mert
Published: September 2023

Taking its cue from T.S. Eliot’s early marionette poems, this article argues that the puppet, and the puppet-like, played a vital but critically neglected role in the development of Eliot’s early dramaturgy and its practical, though partial, realization in his first play, Sweeney Agonistes (1926–27). Eliot’s penumbral evocations of the marionette in his reviews of human performers from the early 1920s point to his fascination with grotesque and inhuman styles of performance. This critical stance, along with modernist theatre’s broader preoccupation with puppets, shaped Eliot’s first foray into writing for the stage, resulting in a work that behaves like a puppet play, both on the page and in performance. Drawing on archival materials, the article goes on to consider the stylistic and thematic features of Sweeney Agonistes in light of their resonances with puppet performances and discusses how certain stage productions, especially those directed by Hallie Flanagan and Rupert Doone in the 1930s, made these connections explicit. It concludes that despite Eliot’s departure from this dramaturgy in his later plays, his turn to drama had significant but unacknowledged, because largely renounced, roots in an aesthetics of performance whose ideals were best manifested by the puppet.
Destined to Hope or Remorse: T.S. Eliot, Francis Bacon, and Their Furies
Authors: Llorens-Cubedo DÍdac
Published: September 2023

This article traces the relationship between the Furies as depicted in T.S. Eliot’s The Family Reunion (1939) and the work of painter Francis Bacon. Bacon’s Three Studies for Figures at the Base of a Crucifixion (1944) – a triptych depicting three grotesque amorphous creatures, which he identified with the Furies – was directly inspired by The Family Reunion , which in turn draws on Aeschylus’ The Eumenides . Eliot’s play not only generated a creative response by Bacon that inaugurated his characteristic style; crucially, it also led him to the Oresteia as a source of inspiration that would be pivotal for his later career. In the play, Eliot’s goddesses of retribution pursue Harry, who is said to have perpetuated a family curse by murdering his wife. The integration of the Furies into a modern play with a Christian background and their visual representation on stage are central challenges of The Family Reunion , as Eliot acknowledged. Bacon represented the Furies as monsters in Three Studies , a triptych that evokes Christian iconography linked to mythology. There are, however, essential differences between Eliot’s and Bacon’s approaches. In The Family Reunion , the Furies become salvific “bright angels” offering Harry an escape from his private hell, whereas in Bacon’s representations, they remain monsters or birds of ill omen that never bring hope. Eliot eventually came to consider his Furies a dramatic failure, recommending they be invisible on stage and subsequently adhering to realism in his drama; for Bacon, the Furies became recurrent images of horror and guilt, haunting but inspirational.

Systematics and biogeography of snakes of the genus (Boa) in the Lesser Antilles
Authors: Thorpe Roger , Malhotra Anita
Published: September 2023

The genus Boa is represented in the Lesser Antilles by a range of fossil, recently extinct, and extant formsoccupying adjacent island banks in the center of the archipelago. Our multigene molecular phylogeny indicates reciprocal monophyly for these extant forms, and colonization from South America rather than Central America. The timing of the colonization of the Lesser Antilles by this genus indicates a late Miocene or Pliocene event, which is earlier than the Pleistocene event suggested for the Corallus treeboas, which are also represented by two extant nominal species. The compact distribution of Boa on adjacent island banks suggests a single colonization and radiation, but this cannot be tested due to widespread extinction of boas across the island banks.
