From Intellectual Investment Trait Theory to Dynamic Intellectual Investment Trait and State Theory: Theory Development, Methodological Advancement, and Empirical Illustration
Authors: Bardach Lisa , Lohmann Julian F , Horstmann Kai , Zitzmann Steffen , Hecht Martin
Published: September 2023

This paper introduces Dynamic Intellectual Investment Trait and State Theory, which (a) centers on dynamic within-person reciprocal relationships between cognitive performance states and intellectual investment personality states, (b) integrates within-person dynamics and developmental trajectories in cognitive abilities and intellectual investment traits, and (c) is embedded in a continuous-time framework. Aligning personality theories with statistical models, we discuss the most appropriate model for testing Dynamic Intellectual Investment Trait and State Theory: a continuous-time growth curve model that combines dynamics and trends. We apply the continuous-time growth curve model in an empirical illustration involving 204 German adults who were assessed roughly 100 times on cognitive abilities (working memory) and intellectual investment personality (interest).
Real-Time Resource Efficient Simulator for SNNs-based Model Experimentation
Authors: Sanaullah
Published: September 2023

RAVSim allows the users to observe the SNN parameter reactions graphically and interact with the model in realtime. This process is analogous to setting up parameters for experimentation and testing of a model in any other programming language like Python. But, for doing so we require huge lines of code to wholly understand these parameters and the model needs to be fine-tuned with various values of the parameter just to observe their behavior and for acquiring the appropriate values. The current simulators to designing SNNs model is time-consuming in both prospectives studying and understanding, as many of times model may need to run with different parametric values, out of which only a few would function.

Published: September 2023

The purpose of this study was to investigate the adaptations in gaze behaviour of older adults when negotiating stairs with different step dimensions. Gaze behaviour of 48 older adults was assessed on a seven-step staircase in Shallow (rise: 15cm; going: 28cm) and Steep (rise: 20cm; going: 25cm) configurations. Older adults tended to look fewer steps ahead and with longer fixations during Steep compared to the Shallow configuration (Steep: 2.9 vs. Shallow: 3.3 steps ahead), which reflects a more conservative gaze behaviour. This adaptation predominantly occurred in descent and around transitions. Thus, these findings could imply that older adults were aware of the increased task difficulty and adopted a conservative gaze behaviour to potentially decrease fall risk.
Antidemocratic tendencies on the left, the right, and beyond: A critical review of the theory and measurement of left-wing authoritarianism
Authors: Nilsson Artur
Published: September 2023

A series of new conceptualizations of left-wing authoritarianism have recently been proposed to counterbalance the traditional focus on right-wing authoritarianism in political psychology. This paper scrutinizes conceptual confusions in the literature on authoritarianism that have been exacerbated by these new conceptualizations, including a pseudo-debate about the existence of left-wing authoritarianism; a conflation of the psychological phenomenon of authoritarianism with the more general category of all antidemocratic predispositions; and a number of logical, conceptual, and statistical fallacies that obscure psychological differences between antidemocratic predispositions on the right and the left. It proposes that antidemocratic predispositions on the right typically involve an authoritarian adherence to established norms along with violence and repression directed at perceived threats to, or deviations from, these norms, whereas those that occur on the left more commonly involve a motivation to overthrow the established authority along with violence and repression directed at perceived threats to superordinate ideological values. It concludes with a call for a broadened and reinvigorated program of research that studies the complexity and diversity of antidemocratic predispositions on the left, the right, and beyond, and their causal impact on antidemocratic attitudes and actions, drawing on insights from multiple traditions and fields of research.
How to run linear mixed effects analysis for pairwise comparisons? A tutorial and a proposal for the calculation of standardized effect sizes
Authors: Brysbaert Marc , Debeer Dries
Published: September 2023

In this tutorial, we provide guidelines for conducting linear mixed effects (LME) analysis for simple designs. First, we discuss how LME analyses compare to traditional t-tests, ANOVAs and linear regression when participants are the only random variable. Then we extend the discussion to studies in which researchers want to generalize across both participants and stimuli, to ensure that statistically significant effects are not due to a few of the stimuli used. For each analysis, we analyze a small toy dataset and provide information on conducting the analysis in R and in jamovi. We also summarize which standardized effect sizes can be calculated with the existing software. We hope the tutorial gives readers a good foundation for using LME analysis for the designs discussed and for extending it to more complex designs.
Academic Misconduct and Generative Artificial Intelligence: University Students’ Intentions, Usage, and Perceptions [Preprint]
Authors: Tindle Richard , Pozzebon Kay , Willis Royce Lyle , Moustafa Ahmed
Published: September 2023

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between academic misconduct and the use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (Gen-AI) among university students. In the current study, we tested the hypotheses that students with pre-existing misconduct intentions and behaviors were: (1) more inclined to use Gen-AI for assessments; (2) more likely to have already used Gen-AI for assessments; and (3) less likely to view Gen-AI as cheating. Accordingly, we surveyed 442 undergraduates using two subscales of the academic misconduct scale to assess intentions and behaviors related to academic misconduct. Questions also addressed their intent and current use of Gen-AI for university assessments and perceptions of Gen-AI as cheating. Findings showed that students with past misconduct intentions or behaviors were 270% and 138% more likely, respectively, to consider using Gen-AI. However, past misconduct behaviors showed a non-significant 66% increase in current Gen-AI usage. Moreover, students with misconduct intentions were 50% less likely to view Gen-AI as cheating, while prior misconduct showed a non-significant 38% increase in this perception. The results emphasize the need for universities to guide students towards ethical Gen-AI use, especially considering it is being used by those predisposed to academic dishonesty.
Serendipitous discoveries in the (social) sciences
Authors: Grüning David Joachim
Published: September 2023

Reflecting on what serendipity means in the psychological and, more broadly, the social sciences is essential to fostering the conditions for revolutionary discoveries. In this respect, I wholeheartedly argue for encouraging transparently discussing failure in science. At the very least, the recognition of unexpected results due to methodological and other practical failures informs future efforts. At best, the unexpected leads to the discovery of something we didn't know we didn't know.
From Natural Language Models to Cognitive Model Validation: A Theoretical Framework
Authors: Mechera-Ostrovsky Tehilla , Newell Ben R
Published: September 2023

We propose a novel technique that uses individuals' verbal descriptions of their problem-solving strategies to validate psychological processes assumed by computational cognitive models. We capitalize on recent advances in Natural Language Processing models (NLP), in particular their context-sensitivity, to classify participants’ unstructured verbal descriptions. We illustrate our approach with an experiment examining how people integrate social and private information when making risky decisions. We contrast NLP model outputs derived from participants’ verbal descriptions with the assumptions underlying a computational model fit to the behavioural data. We discuss ways to refine and improve this technique, and argue that verbal descriptions are a valuable and under-utilized source of data for holding cognitive models accountable to their psychological assumptions.
Can arts-based interventions improve health? A conceptual and methodological critique of art therapy
Authors: Skov Martin , Nadal Marcos
Published: September 2023

Can art improve health and wellbeing? The rapidly growing art therapy literature claims that there is solid evidence that engaging with art ameliorates mental and physical disorders and increases wellbeing. This claim is used to justify numerous arts-based clinical interventions and health policies, so it deserves thorough scrutiny. Here we show that the evidence cited in favor of the efficacy of art therapy interventions is conceptually and methodologically flawed. Conceptually, experiments investigating the effects of arts-based interventions on health do not include appropriate tests nor control conditions that would allow demonstrating that the putative effects actually owe to the healing power of art: (i) they fail to define what art is, making it impossible to compare the effect of “art” and “non-art” stimuli and activities on health and wellbeing; (ii) they fail to demonstrate that “art” stimuli and activities elicit a distinct class of “art” experiences that modulate the mechanistic causes of disorders; (iii) and they fail to include causal manipulations of physiological processes believed to be mechanisms of action that could prove that art-induced processes affect the etiology of disorders. Methodologically, most studies cited as proof for the efficacy of art therapy lacked such common clinical trial procedures as defining the therapeutic agent, randomizing group assignment, controlling for patient or researcher allegiance, controlling for the effects of other concurrent interventions and medications, comparing art-based interventions to other kinds of interventions, or conducting and reporting statistical analyses appropriately. We conclude that there is no compelling evidence that art objects and activities can induce physiological changes to the human nervous system that result in health improvements and wellbeing. We discuss why proponents of art therapy have neglected these problems and the ethical implications for patients who are treated using art therapy.
Anxiety-linked biases in attention to cues signalling threat: Reliable individual differences across three anxiety domains.
Authors: Basanovic Julian
Published: September 2023

Cognitive models of anxiety vulnerability and psychopathology have proposed that individual differences in anxiety are characterised by biases in attentional responding to threat valenced information. Traditional approaches used to examine these biases have measured selective attention to stimuli that represent threats, such as pictures of negative scenes, angry faces, or feared animals. Though these approaches have repeatedly yielded evidence of these effects the measurement reliability of these approaches has been poor, limiting the confidence with which hypotheses can be tested. Recent research has demonstrated that biased attention to cues signalling imminent threat can be measured with acceptable reliability, suggesting a credible avenue for investigating anxiety-linked differences in attentional processing of threat valenced information. However, the relation between this process and anxiety vulnerability has not been tested. The present study conducted three experiments that recruited participants who varied in trait and state anxiety (N = 134), social anxiety (N = 122), or spider fear (N = 131) to complete an assessment of selective attention to cues indicating the location of threat valenced stimuli. Analyses revealed each anxiety domain to be associated with attentional vigilance, or avoidance, of threat cues and the reliability of selective attention indices to be acceptable (r-split-half = .69 - .81). The findings demonstrate multiple anxiety domains are characterised by biased attentional responding to cues signalling threat and that such biases can be measured reliably. Implications for theories of anxiety-linked attention processing and further avenues for investigating the bias, and its relation to anxiety vulnerability, are discussed.
The Diversion of Human Energy: How Labor Became a Commodity in Modern Societies
Authors: Orquiza João Carlos
Published: September 2023

Abstract: Just as a car is only activated by the ignition key with the driver's energy, modern society is sustained by the energy present in each individual. In a universe dominated by the second law of thermodynamics, entropy - the inherent tendency towards disorder - is an inescapable constant. However, life, in its essence, challenges this tendency, maintaining order and complexity through free energy. This energy, especially human energy, is not only the vital force that sustains biological processes but is also the primary energy source that fuels the complex structures and operations of contemporary societies. For 95% of humanity's historical time, human energy was channeled very differently than it is today. It was primarily directed towards group cohesion, life sustenance, and maintaining balance with the surrounding environment. Life in small cohesive groups allowed for a balanced use of energy, resisting entropic forces. However, with the transition to post-agricultural societies, there was a drastic shift in how this energy is utilized. The demands of modern society, with its emphasis on production, transportation, marketing, and consumption, require an unprecedented amount of human energy. This energy is extracted from individuals. This essay seeks to explore this dynamic, questioning the diversion of human energy from its primary purpose and the need to realign our societies to recognize the intrinsic value of human energy in the form of labor. In an entropic universe, where disorder is the norm, human energy is our greatest defense against chaos. Therefore, it is imperative that we recognize its centrality in our lives and societies.

Exploring the Pedagogical Potential of Monolingual Corpora in Inverse Translation Training
Authors: Alshubaily Sara , BinSultan Nora
Published: September 2023

This article presents a comprehensive study that delves into the untapped potential of incorporating monolingual corpora as a strategic tool within translator training to enhance trainees’ proficiency in the challenging domain of inverse translation from Arabic to English. By shedding light on the pedagogical promise of monolingual corpora in inverse translation instruction, this research underscores the critical need to integrate this tool into translator training curricula, thereby amplifying the translation competencies of trainees. The central research inquiry is as follows: How does using a monolingual corpus enhance the performance of students engaged in inverse translation of collocations from Arabic to English within the context of political and media texts? The researchers focused on two groups of female students specializing in political and media translation at the College of Language Sciences, King Saud University. These groups, a control and an experimental one, were meticulously trained with different references—while the control group relied on conventional bilingual dictionaries, the experimental group employed monolingual corpora as their primary translation references—the assessment criterion centered on translating a newspaper text. The noteworthy outcome of this comparative analysis was that the experimental group consistently outperformed their counterparts in the control group by leveraging monolingual corpora. The findings from this research offer precise guidance to enhance the efficiency of translation training programs. Moreover, the study equips translators with essential skills and competencies and elevates the quality of translation training programs.
The Effect of Daffodil Flowers on William Wordsworth’s Mood
Authors: Ibrahim Amal M. A.
Published: September 2023

The study highlights that nature has a significant impact on romantic poets’ moods. The significance of the study displays that nature plays a big role in changing the mood of some English romantic poets from pessimistic to optimistic. The daffodils flowers can shift a person’s gloomy condition into an optimistic one. The study shows how William Wordsworth’s poem Daffodils reflects his love of nature and how daffodils flowers were able to change his depressing condition into an optimistic one. The study used a descriptive and analytical methodology. The study concludes that nature could change the poets’ attitudes from a pessimistic one to an optimistic one, especially the daffodils flowers. Also, nature has an impact on both their literary output and their attitudes, sentiments, and way of life. Romantic writers cherished nature because it could affect their feelings and generate beautiful poetry. A person’s appreciation of nature acts as a mirror to reflect their thoughts, sentiments, and traditions, as well as their outlook on life.
Microbial Exopolysaccharides: A Promising Health Booster
Authors: Amrutha TA , Beena AK
Published: September 2023

Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPS) are long-chain polysaccharides that are synthesized and secreted by microorganisms into the external matrix. In bacteria, EPS can either be associated with the cell surface in the form of capsules or be secreted into the environment. The yield of EPS is influenced by various factors, including the growth conditions and composition of the growth media. EPSs are high molecular-weight carbohydrates that consist of a backbone of repeated subunits of monosaccharides in varying ratios. Recently, there has been an increasing interest in EPS-producing microbes with Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) status. These food-grade organisms have the potential to produce polymers that can control the rheological and functional properties of food systems. EPSs have also been reported to have prebiotic and immune-modulating functions like anticancer, antidiabetic, antiviral, etc. The increasing recognition of the association between EPS and health benefits suggests the potential of EPS-producing starters with functional characteristics in the production of value-added functional products. Such products align with consumer demand for natural and healthy alternatives with fewer additives. The exploration of functional means of EPS in Pharmacology will provide an opportunity to identify novel and robust microbial resources producing unique EPSs.

The Influence of Mode of Instruction (Recorded Versus In-Person Lecture) on Student Achievement on Written Examinations in a Veterinary Clinical Toxicology Course
Authors: Furr Martin , van der Merwe Deon , Raczkoski Brandon
Published: September 2023

The use of recorded on-line lecture presentation has increased in recent years in veterinary medical education. The effects of recorded on-line lectures on student knowledge acquisition are incompletely studied and there is very little information specifically addressing veterinary medical students. We studied the written examination performance of 373 third-year students spanning 4 calendar years (2017–2019, 2022) enrolled in a veterinary toxicology course which were exposed to either in-person lectures or recorded lectures of the exact same material. There was no difference in overall examination performance for students receiving on-line instruction compared to in-person lectures from the same instructor and instructional materials ( p = .254). However, students receiving in-person lectures compared to those that received recorded lectures demonstrated improved performance on exact matching questions (92.9% vs. 81.8%, respectively; p < .001). This study contributes to the limited body of knowledge regarding didactic instructional methodology in veterinary medicine. Further and more detailed studies are warranted to ensure optimal methods are employed in veterinary student instruction.

Published: September 2023

The running performance and strength is important for many runners. This study aimed to examine hip joint isokinetic strength profiles of elite middle-distance runners. Nine elite middle-distance runners volunteered to participate in this study. Hip joint isokinetic muscle strength was measured using by an isokinetic dynameters. Participants performed isokinetic tests on dominant and non-dominant legs at a speed of 60°-s-1 for 10 repetitions. Isokinetic tests were conducted to flexion/extension, abduction/adduction and internal/external rotation movements of hip at concentric/concentric mode. There was no significant difference between dominant and non-dominant legs in peak torque and relative peak torque values. When the hip flexors were evaluated bilaterally, it was determined that the non-dominant side produced higher torque than the dominant side. However, in all other movements, the dominant side had higher torque values than the non-dominant side. As a result; on evaluated all joint movements bilaterally, hip flexor/extensor and adductor muscles were in normal values. However, hip abductor and internal/external rotator muscles values were in a risky range.

Authors: Биков О.М. , Самань В.В.
Published: September 2023

У статті розкривається державотворча діяльність відомого українського адвоката і громадсько-політичного діяча Іллі Шрага в ході революційних подій 1917 року. Доводиться, що революційні події в Російській імперії докорінно змінили державний лад і дали можливість суттєво активізувати національно-визвольну боротьбу серед народів імперії. Помітні зміни відбулись і в Україні, де з новою силою починає розвиватися національний рух, засновуються та функціонують українські органи влади, політичні партії та громадські інституції, відроджується культура. Зазначається, що І. Шраг відіграв значну роль у цих процесах, оскільки безпосередньо брав участь у координації та організаційному забезпеченні українського національного руху. Маючи належну фахову підготовку і значний життєвий досвід, діяч брав участь у державотворчих процесах як на локальному рівні, у рідній йому Чернігівщині, так і загальноукраїнському, активно працюючи у новостворених державних інституціях. Наголошується, що події революції спричинили єднання навколо персони І. Шрага групи громадських активістів, які в умовах революції ставили основною метою забезпечення стабільності на території губернії, створення організаційного комітету задля співпраці з Тимчасовим урядом та місцевими органами влади. Результатом цього стало створення Губернського комітету громадських організацій, який проіснував аж до грудня 1917 року. Очолив новостворений комітет І. Шраг. Зауважується, що діяч наголошував на потребі реформування апарату місцевої влади, що був створений у попередній період. У зв’язку з цим він багато уваги приділив вирішенню організаційних питань та посиленню впливу земств і міської думи як органів місцевого самоврядування. Відзначається, що поряд з вирішенням місцевих справ, діяч бере активну участь в обговоренні нагальних питань української автономії. За ініціативи І. Шрага та його однодумців вони розглядалися на порядку денному українського з’їзду у Чернігові з 8 по 10 червня 1917 року. Підсумками його роботи стало написання тексту резолюції, автором якої був Ілля Шраг. Збори визнавали національно-територіальну автономію України, з обов’язковою гарантією прав національних меншин. Аналізується діяльність І. Шрага у складі Центральної Ради, куди він увійшов як представник від Чернігівської губернії. Наголошується, що будучи у складі Товариства українських поступовців, він став одним із його ідейних натхненників і відігравав значну роль у виробленні політичного курсу організації.

Authors:   NSC “Institute of Agrarian Economics”, SUSLIKOV Andrii
Published: September 2023

The article studies the strategic directions for development of securities underwriting of corporate agricultural enterprises in the context of increasing its market capitalization. The strategic advantages of securities underwriting for attracting capital by corporate agricultural enterprises of Ukraine in the Ukrainian and foreign stock markets have been identified: attracting investors, especially foreign ones, reducing the cost of capital, reducing lending rates, improving corporate governance, enhancing the company’s reputation, simplifying access to international markets, and reducing risks. The author identifies the disadvantages of underwriting as a partial loss of freedom, control and privacy by a company. The directions of increasing the market capitalization of corporate agricultural enterprises in the context of underwriting development have been substantiated. It has been shown that the efficiency of underwriting securities of corporate agricultural enterprises is a key factor in ensuring the successful issue of securities in the stock market. The mechanism for forming the efficiency of securities underwriting development in the context of increasing the market capitalization of corporate agricultural enterprises has been developed. It has been shown that the efficiency of underwriting securities of corporate agricultural enterprises is formed depending on the competence of the underwriter, rational choice of the stock exchange, building an optimal development strategy for the company and a strategic plan for entering the capital market, advertising activities, especially during due-diligence procedures, competitiveness and business reputation of the enterprise. A methodical approach to assessing the effectiveness of underwriting securities of corporate agricultural enterprises has been proposed, which allows to substantiate issuance decisions, to strategize the allocation of the optimal amount of financial resources, to attract investors and their capital more rationally, and to conduct scientifically based monitoring of the results of the share issue. The efficiency of underwriting and placement of shares of corporate agricultural enterprises on international stock exchanges has been analyzed.

Transit should serve all users, regardless of age, race, ability, or any other identity. Policies and planning must be conscious of inequities when defining and measuring equity in public transportation. This study was done to aid the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and the state’s transit agencies in assessing transit service equity and assisting with evaluating past, existing, and future inequities. This report identifies and evaluates policies and practices associated with equity measurement in public transit from extant academic and professional literature sources. These include the Federal laws and regulations addressing Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the measurement tools (i.e., metrics) that are used to identify and evaluate equity impacts related to transit benefits and costs. The report identifies a list of candidate metrics and applies them to a test case in Santa Cruz County, California, and compares their results to those generated by the metrics required by Title VI (race and income) for transit equity analysis. From this comparison, the study evaluated the need for new metrics in transit equity. Findings suggest that these traditional Title VI measures do not correlate well with other potential measures of inequity. Hence, transit inequity is a multifaceted problem with several potential different measures, each revealing an aspect of inequity. Caltrans and other transit-related agencies need to reach beyond these traditional measures, finding metrics that address the specific, context-appropriate equity conditions of the communities they are measuring to ensure fair and equal public transportation for all.

Authors: Luiza Nunes Soares Amanda
Published: September 2023

O presente artigo em tela tem por objetivo uma análise detida da espécie de pena medida de segurança e sua aplicação na sociedade hodierna à luz do garantismo penal. Nesse diapasão, buscou-se  abordar e confrontar o instituto da medida de segurança e suas espécies com o arcabouço constitucional da Constituição Federativa (1988), Código Penal (1940) e de Processo Penal (1941), como também a jurisprudência pátria e seu entendimento acerca do tema. Em primeiro momento, serão abordadas os aspectos da medida de segurança e a quem essa se aplica, explorando os conceitos de imputabilidade, semi-imputabilidade e ininputabilidade, como também o paradoxo entre doenças mentais incuráveis e o transtorno de personalidade. Em segundo momento será abordado a relação entre a medida de segurança, seu prazo e o princípio da vedação a pena perpetua à luz do garantismo penal, como também o entendimento jurisprudencial dos nossos tribunais. Por derradeiro, será apresentado o cenário de aplicabilidade da medida de segurança na contemporaneidade sob o assentamento do garantismo penal.

Waste recovery is now a favourable solution for technical and economic reasons. The purpose of this study is the valuation of marine co-products – seashells, whose goal is to produce an eco-material that responds to the environmental problem. The experimental study focuses on the idea of replacing natural aggregates with recycled shell aggregates and studying their influence on the properties of pervious concrete. For this purpose, six concrete mixtures were prepared, where three of them were based on natural crushed limestone aggregates with 20% of porosity but had different dosages of cement 250, 300, and 350 kg/m3. The other three concretes have identical compositions, except that crushed shell aggregates substitute the natural aggregates. The obtained results are showing that the use of crushed shells considerably influences the properties of the studied concretes. In the fresh state, all concretes present high slump values and low density. Using shell aggregates improves the mechanical resistance, especially the tensile strength, by bending for the hardened state. Despite their shapes, the shell aggregates used in this study do not affect the concrete porosity, and consequently, draining concretes with good permeability have been obtained.
