During the COVID-19 pandemic, citizens have been exposed to vast amounts of mis- and disinformation. This “infodemic” has undermined key behavioural and pharmacological measures to contain the pandemic—for instance, by increasing vaccine hesitancy. In a cross-sectional survey of residents of Germany, we investigated citizens’ perceptions of and ability to deal with misinformation across three Waves of data collection in 2020/21 (Ntotal = 3324). We observed three main results. First, there was a strong increase in the perceived prevalence of misinformation in classic and online media and in social interactions over the course of the pandemic. Second, some—but by no means all—respondents knew how to identify misinformation. Third, higher susceptibility to misinformation was associated with support for the far-right AFD party, reliance on tabloids, neighbours and social media for information and news, lower education, as well as migration background. To help people navigate the challenges of the infodemic, we propose a two-pronged approach, namely, to boost individuals’ abilities to discern false from accurate information, and to enrich citizens’ proximate environments (e.g., neighbourhoods with high rates of migration) with reliable, accessible and high-quality information.
“Anything that looks like smoking is bad”: Moral opposition and support for harm reduction policies.
Authors: Wylie Jordan , Sharma Nirupika , Gantman Ana P.
Published: July 2021

One dilemma faced by policy makers is the choice between banning a harmful behavior and allowing the behavior to continue but with mitigated harm. This latter approach––a harm reduction strategy––is often efficacious, yet policies of this sort can be unpopular if people morally oppose the target behavior (MacCoun, 2013). This raises interesting questions for understanding how judgments of harmfulness relate to moral opposition. In four studies (N = 1,090), including one U.S. representative sample, we found that increased moral opposition to risky sex, gun ownership, cigarette smoking (Studies 1-3), and unemployment (Study 4), was associated with less support for pre-exposure prophylaxis, gun safety training, e-cigarette use, and federal support respectively. However, there was variation across the issues across time, including when news broke of “vaping sickness” in 2019. Interestingly, judgments of harmfulness of both gun ownership and risky sexual behavior, though correlated with moral opposition, positively predict policy support, suggesting that it is possible to judge a behavior as harmful but otherwise acceptable, and in that case harm-reduction policy is also acceptable. Together, these results highlight the multi-faceted nature of moral opposition and its implications for real-world policy.
Subject-specific tests improve master admission
Authors: Hartung Johanna , Schmitz Florian , Wilhelm Oliver
Published: July 2021

Objective: We investigated the predictive power of bachelor grades and a subject-specific admission test used to select students who enlisted to study in a German master’s program in psychology. Methods: Analyses are based on the data of 2,264 university applicants from five cohorts. Results: Bachelor grades were not significantly correlated with master grades as well as with test scores for external applicants, but the relationships were significant for internal applicants. In contrast, the correlation of test scores and master grades was comparable between groups, which can be seen as an indicator of test fairness. Regression analysis showed that the admission test was a valid predictor for master grades. Furthermore, we found that both predictors, bachelor grades and test scores, were incrementally valid. Discussion: In sum, this study illustrates the benefits of using a standardized test for master student admission. We discuss issues of using coherent admission criteria across institutions.
Loneliness and personal wellbeing in young people: moderating effects of individual, interpersonal, and community factors.

Published: July 2021

The aim of the current study was to assess associations between loneliness and personal wellbeing among young people. Framed by social ecological theory, the study examined demographic, social, and community factors associated with personal wellbeing and, critically, identified malleable moderators of the relationship between loneliness and personal wellbeing that could be targeted in intervention efforts.We used cross-sectional, secondary data from 965 young people (aged 16-24) from the Community Life Survey in England. Loneliness was measured using a single-item direct measure; personal wellbeing was measured through a composite measure containing items relating to happiness, life satisfaction and a sense that life is worthwhile (α = 0.88). Regression techniques were used to assess direct associations between individual, social, and community factors and personal wellbeing, and identify factors that moderate the association between loneliness and personal wellbeing. Loneliness was negatively associated with wellbeing. Frequency of chatting with neighbours and having people to provide help moderated the relationship between loneliness and personal wellbeing. Young people who were full-time students or reported good physical health had higher personal wellbeing, while being a carer was predictive of decreased wellbeing. Having people to count on was the only social variable significantly associated with personal wellbeing, while all community factors were found to be strongly associated with increased wellbeing. Our results advance the current literature by identifying that supportive social relationships and close community ties are important for reducing the negative impact of loneliness on youth wellbeing. Intervention efforts to improve wellbeing could benefit from specifically targeting these aspects of young people’s social and community lives, while acknowledging individual vulnerabilities, such as poor physical health.
Daily Climate Extremes of Temperature and Precipitation Over Quetta Valley, Pakistan During 1961-2019
Authors: Durrani Imran Hameed , Adnan Shahzada , Aftab Syed Mobasher
Published: July 2021

Climate extremes are imperative to study the impacts of climate change that is significantly observed for the management of scarce water resources of the Quetta Valley. The daily data of temperature and precipitation are used to model the climate extreme indices for Quetta Meteorological Station from1961 to 2019. The statistical tests were performed by using Mann Kendal and Sen’s Slope method at the 95% confidence level. The overall change in minimum to maximum temperatures and precipitation-based climate extreme indices specify the frequencies of extreme events are increasing. That would cause heatwaves, gradual warming, steady dryness, and extreme precipitation events in the long term over the Quetta Valley. The minimum and maximum temperature-based indices inclusively indicate positive trends. That ultimately leads to a warming climate with a significant increase in summer as 5 days/decade, tropical nights as 5.3 days/decade, daily maximum as 0.28°C/decade, warm nights as 1.7 days/decade and warm days as 1.9 days/decade. For precipitation, all the indices show positive trends with a significant increase in consecutive wet days for 0.1 days/decade and an annual contribution of very wet days 0.8% per decade. The monthly increase in temperature and decrease in precipitation would increase the evaporative demands which may arise the water stress conditions over the valley and may put pressure over groundwater reservoirs.
The feminine target: Gender expression in same-sex relationships as a predictor of experiences with public displays of affection
Authors: Matheson Lauren , Ortiz Drexler L. , Hoskin Rhea Ashley , Holmberg Diane , Blair Karen L.
Published: July 2021

The extent to which sexual minority individuals present publicly as masculine, feminine, or both has been associated with their perceptions of threat and safety in public spaces. The current study investigates the role of gender expression in men and women’s experiences of public displays of affection (PDAs) in same-sex relationships. Participants (N = 528) reported their own gender expression as well as that of their partner, perceptions of support for PDAs, PDA-related vigilance, general vigilance and overall PDA frequency. Men in same-sex relationships reported less frequent PDAs and greater PDA-related vigilance than women, while women reported greater overall variability in their gender expression than men. Multiple regression analyses show femininity within the participant (for men) or their partner (for both men and women) was associated with greater general and PDA-related vigilance. These findings align with previous research on femmephobia, in which femininity is described as making individuals feel ‘targeted’ for other forms of oppression (e.g., homophobia, sexism, transphobia; Hoskin, 2019 ). Although femininity was associated with greater vigilance, the association between masculinity within a same-sex relationship and vigilance was more tenuous, demonstrating evidence of masculinity serving as both a potential target for homophobic violence as well as a source of protection. The dual nature of masculinity was particularly salient among women in same-sex relationships, where masculinity tempered by femininity was associated with greater perceived support for PDAs but for women with partners low in femininity, the more masculine their partner, the greater their reported levels of vigilance.
Supporting the development of sexuality in early childhood: The rationales and barriers to sexuality education in early learning settings
Authors: Balter Alice-Simone , van Rhijn Tricia , Gores Deborah , Davies Adam W.J. , Akers Taylor
Published: July 2021

Learning about sexuality is an important part of development in early childhood but is not formally considered in early learning settings. This makes sexuality education for young children both rare and inconsistent across early learning settings. The purpose of this paper is to provide a unique contribution and inform the state of sexuality education in early learning settings in Canada, which is currently an understudied area. We describe the Canadian context of sexuality education in early learning settings and examine its presence in provincial and territorial early learning frameworks. We advocate for the inclusion of sexuality education in early learning settings because it can support children’s development and construction of sexuality, is a critical factor in providing children with personal safety skills and a part of child sexual abuse prevention work, and also sets the foundation for equity and social justice in teaching children about diversity as a norm. We discuss the barriers which act to exclude sexuality education in early learning settings including a lack of curriculum and policy to guide early learning professionals in addressing and supporting this domain, fear of parent reactions, and theoretical constructions of childhood innocence. We conclude with practice and policy recommendations to move the field forward.
Is Dearth a Little or a Lot?
Authors: Ehrhardt Amelia , Goodwin Jenn , Gordon Cathy
Published: July 2021

In the format of an interpolated Zoom transcript, former SummerWorks Curators Amelia Ehrhardt, Jenn Goodwin, and Cathy Gordon discuss the disciplining and undisciplining of SummerWorks Performance Festival between 2015 and 2019. The authors came to SummerWorks as specific curators of the dance and live-art streams and watched the festival grow from being a theatre-focused festival known to invite other art forms to a performance festival focused on a multidisciplinary perspective. Ehrhardt, Goodwin, and Gordon discuss the festival’s transition and specific works that exemplified their curatorial lenses-Ehrhardt and Goodwin from dance and Gordon from live art. "Is Dearth a Little or a Lot?" reads conversationally with an editorial voice interrogating the transcript, checking facts, or chiming in with context like a pop-up-video-style literary device. The authors question the function and outcome of creating discipline-specific streams for artists, audiences, and the structure of the festival and discuss hopes for the future of an undisciplined festival.
Clean Irene in the Parking Lot
Authors: Parry Evalyn , Chatterton Anna
Published: July 2021

Creator/performers and longtime collaborators Evalyn Parry and Anna Chatterton recall the night of the northeast blackout during the 2003 SummerWorks festival, when they performed their award-winning show Clean Irene and Dirty Maxine (Independent Auntie Theatre) in the parking lot outside Factory Theatre. They discuss the impact this production, and this particular performance, had on their careers, putting them on the map as emerging artists. They reflect on how their determination to perform during the blackout exemplifies the determination needed to pursue a career in the theatre. They discuss what details they remember about that night and what they don’t remember all these many years later, and their memory of walking home after the show through the dark city streets, how that night seemed like it might be the end of the world.
Who Can Afford SummerWorks?
Authors: Latif Shaista
Published: July 2021

A critical reflection on the culture of recognition and compensation. The narrative exploration of the work playfully addresses the romanticization of award ceremonies and presents a complicated narrative of recognition. The sociality of the pain experienced from the artist’s sudden delegitimization asks the reader to engage with tensions of power, dominance, and representation.
“Traces Devised Reminiscence”
Authors: Polak Michelle , Barton Bruce , Julien Martin
Published: July 2021

One of the last performances Vertical City (Bruce Barton and Pil Hansen) created before moving from Toronto to Calgary was Trace, which premiered at the 2014 SummerWorks festival. Crafted in a compact and intense development process with close collaborators Michelle Polak and Martin Julien, Trace marked a subtle but defining moment in our artistic trajectory. Engaging participants in ways unconceivable in our present pandemic world, it was one of our most illuminating explorations of the potential for/in deeply intimate personal exchange between performers and audience members.

Trace was built on, with, and through a process of spontaneous collective reminiscence-one perhaps only conceivable within SummerWorks’ combination of careful curatorial oversight and empowering artist autonomy. Adopting similar structural and aesthetic principles, this impressionistic three-way meandering reflects back on that experience. In the process, it renders a fittingly fragmented but deeply felt ode to SummerWorks’ distinctive blend of intention, intelligence, and opportunity.
The Show Did Go On
Authors: Thompson Cheryl
Published: July 2021

Using examples from Toronto’s newspapers, this article examines the impact of the 1918–19 Spanish flu pandemic on the city's theatre and the changes that followed in the twenties. Like during the COVID-19 pandemic, in 1918 health boards across Ontario ordered all theatres to close. However, after two weeks, theatres opened, and productions from New York City’s Broadway, such as the musical comedy Ask Dad, appeared at the Royal Alexandra Theatre, to rave reviews. Toronto’s stages became more diverse following the Spanish flu, with productions such as Shuffle Along, the first all-Black musical on Broadway, which hit the city’s stages in 1923, and one of the first locally cast shows, Amateur Minstrel Frolics, which appeared in 1924 at the Winter Garden Theatre. This article explores how and why the theatre changed after the last pandemic and what issues, such as those related to race and gender, lingered on.
Unwieldy Desires
Authors: Jackson Rob
Published: July 2021

Reading Billy-Ray Belcourt’s A History of My Brief Body and Lisa Robertson’s The Baudelaire Fractal against the backdrop of the COVID-19 crisis, I suggest that a feminist ethic of care emerges from the authors writing of queer performativity. Against a neo-liberal model of care that individuates and isolates, Belcourt and Robertson offer theories of the self as historical and multiple. Following a brief close reading of their work, I argue that the overlapping crises of the present require a politics of decision. Precisely because caring for oneself as a protective gesture against social contagion does not scale up in the ways that the uneven distribution of life chances bears down on subjugated communities, Belcourt and Robertson suggest we must decide when to abandon the narrative enclosures of the self-as-isolation and embrace the radical exposures of collectivity.
The Health of the Classics Job Market during the Pandemic: A Long-Term Perspective
Authors: Ehrlich Simeon D.
Published: July 2021

The pressures of the COVID-19 pandemic have led to a 60% decline in the scale of the academic job market in classics in Canada and the United States. Review of online job posting data stretching back to the mid-1990s shows that the health of this market correlates closely with that of the economy at large. While minor year-to-year economic fluctuations have a minimal impact on the job market in the long term, recessions fundamentally alter its character, with the market remaining depressed for years after the economy itself has recovered. Compounding this problem is the oversupply of PhDs flooding the market at present, a consequence of the long training period of graduate school, which keeps PhD output high for many years after a wave of undergraduate enrolment peaks. A third factor is the trend in academia to short-term positions with high teaching loads, which leads to fewer openings for permanent jobs and a diminished need for faculty. Taken together, current trends bode ill for the future of our discipline and pose an existential threat for many smaller programs.
Ganglioneuroma and Its Very Rare Localisation: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
Authors: Hemza Jan , Hemza Jan
Published: July 2021

Ganglioneuroma is a very rare benign tumor growing from the vegetative, autonomic nervous system. It grows from the central or peripheral part. We describe cervical ganglioneuroma in a 38-year-old man growing in the C7/Th1 foramen area on the right before the fibers enter the ganglion stellatum. It is a non-dumbbell shaped tumor growing between ganglion stellatum and ganglion cervicale. Treatment is resection with total tumor excess. Complete surgical resection is a very effective therapy. The relapse of the tumor is not described in literature studies. Similar type of this case has been described only once in literature and reviewed from anglophone literature, which is selected with the exclusion of neurofibromatosis and with localization in the neck area [1].

Cassava or better known as cassava is one of the staples of rice which is popular in Indonesia. Cassava plants can flourish in almost all regions of Indonesia. However, cassava is a plant that is susceptible to plant disease, which attacks the disease resulting in a decrease in the amount of productivity of tubers produced by cassava plants. The application of identifying cassava disease based on leaf image is expected to be useful as a support for cassava farming in easily detecting cassava disease, so that it can be dealt with more quickly. This study uses the Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) method as an extraction feature and the Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN) method for identification processes. Based on the results of tests on 6 types of cassava leaf images, obtained an accuracy of 83.33%.

Facts about adolescents from the Demographic and Health Survey—Statistical tables for program planning: Brazil 1996
Authors:   Population Council
Published: July 2021

The Population Council initiated its work on adolescents in the mid-1990s. At that time, those advocating greater attention to adolescent issues were concerned about adolescent fertility—particularly outside of marriage—and adolescent “risk-taking” behavior. As an international scientific organization with its mandate centered around the needs of developing countries, the Council sought a more nuanced and context-specific understanding of the problems confronting adolescents in the developing world. In working with colleagues inside and outside the Council, it became clear that information on adolescents, and the way data are organized, were limiting the ability to understand the diversity of their experiences or to develop programs to address that diversity. In the absence of data, many adolescent policies were implicitly based on the premise that the lives of adolescents in developing countries were like those of adolescents in Western countries. In fact, significant numbers of young people in the West do not fit this description, and even larger groups within the developing countries. The Council created tables to more clearly describe the diversity of the adolescent experience by drawing on Brazil Demographic and Health Survey data. The tables, presented in this report, are intended to be used as a basis for developing programs.

Published: July 2021

The California State Rail Plan (CSRP) is among the best rail plan documents published by any jurisdiction in the United States to date. As such, the CSRP is used in this paper as the basis of comparison to other state rail service plans. These plans will have been submitted to the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) on record as of June 2020—as required under Section 303 of the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act (PRIIA) of 2008. The purpose of this paper is to identify the best practices and gaps that may inform California and other states in their future rail service plan development. This paper is grounded in the realization that, while the general outline of FRA requirements is uniform for all states, the actual content and inclusion of these requirements in the myriad state plans varies greatly. For example, California was granted an exception to help update FRA Rail Plan Guidance for its 2018 Rail Plan, other states have complained that FRA guidance and requirements on rail service planning have put state rail agencies in the position of constantly writing plans with little or no time to implement them. Throughout this research, the authors identify all the elements of FRA guidelines as reflected in the CSRP and rail plans of other states. This report also identifies the best features and planning strategies that may inform and improve the state rail planning process going forward, steps that will positively contribute to the public benefit of enhanced rail systems.

Background: Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) is a respiratory disease caused by corona virus. Smokers are the most vulnerable group form Covid-1. Dirty hands can spread disease by providing entry to pathogens, bacteria, or viruses. Handwashing could be effective and efficient prevention to prevent covid-19 infection.Objective: To determine the relationship between gender and smoking habits, handwashing and nutritional behavior among respondents.Methods: A descriptive-analytic study with a cross-sectional design. Respondents were 966 people who lived in Bengkulu Province. Data collection was carried out by online questionnaire which were distributed through WhatsApp media. Data analysis used the chi-square test.Results: There were significant relationship between gender and smoking habits (p = 0.003), gender and handwashing (p = 0.000), gender and nutritional behavior related with fresh food consumptions (p = 0.026). There were no relationship between gender and nutritional behavior related to preserved/instant foods consumption (p = 0.463), nutritional behavior and fruit-vegetable consumption habits (p = 0.090).Conclusion: There is a relationship between gender and smoking and handwashing habits.

Background: Hydration results from body fluids balance, while dehydration results from body fluids imbalance. Dehydration can result from losing too much water, not drinking enough or both of these things. There are certain job who has  special needs for fluids especially who works in hot environments.Objective: To determine the relationship between knowledge, fluid intake and nutritional status with hydration status in expedition couriers.Methods: A cross-sectional design with 44 expedition couriers as the research subject. Knowledge of fluids were obtained using a questionnaire, fluid intake were obtained by interview using repeated 24-h food recall, nutritional status were obtained by using BMI and the hydration status were obtained by urine specific gravity using urinalysis reagent strips. The data was processed and analyzed using Pearson correlation test.Results: Most of the respondents had sufficient knowledge (59.1%). The average fluid intake of the respondents were 2562 mL. Most of the respondents had normal nutritional status (45.4%). Almost half of respondents has pre-dehydration (45.5%). There  were arelationship between knowledge of fluids and hydration status (p=0,0001, r=-0,514), also between fluid intake and hydration status (p=0,0001, r=-0,685). There is no relationship between nutritional status and hydration status (p=0,337, r=0,148).Conclusion: Fluid intake and hydration status on expedition couriers are still not as expected, even though expedition couriers have sufficient knowledge.

Ruang Administrasi Departemen Arsitektur Universitas Hasanuddin (Unhas) merupakan bagian dari fungsi ruang di Gedung Arsitektur Fakultas Teknik Universitas Hasanuddin Gowa yang memiliki intensitas aktivitas cukup tinggi. Sebagai fungsi administrasi, akademik, dan penunjang, ruang ini menjadi titik simpul pertemuan antara staf pegawai, dosen, dan mahasiswa. Terjadi pergeseran sifat ruang administrasi yang formal menjadi informal dengan adanya kegiatan lain. Studi ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi latar perilaku (behavior setting) pemanfaatan ruang kerja Departemen Arsitektur Unhas, dengan mengamati objek penelitian dan menjelaskan atau menggambarkan latar fisik ruang, dan latar perilaku pengguna ruang, serta menganalisis unsur-unsur atribut yang terjadi dalam ruang. Penelitian ini bersifat eksploratif-deskriptif, menggunakan teknik pengamatan pemetaan perilaku (behavior mapping) yang menekankan pada perilaku pengguna dalam suatu waktu di tempat tertentu (place-centered mapping), physical trace, dan time budget. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kecenderungan latar fisik ruang mempengaruhi perilaku pengguna dan membentuk pola perilaku dan konfigurasi peta mental yang cenderung terjadi berulang. Ruang kerja dan ruang tunggu cenderung fleksibel dan adaptabel, terdapat teritori pada area ruang kerja. Di ruang kerja tampak penggunaan ruang dalam satu latar mengalami proses identifikasi perilaku, namun identifikasi tersebut cenderung tidak berpengaruh pada latar ruang.

The Administration Room of Architecture Department, Hasanuddin University (Unhas) is part of the function room in the Engineering Faculty Architecture Building, Hasanuddin University, Gowa, which has a high intensity of activity. As an administrative, academic and support function, this room becomes a meeting point between staff, lecturers, and students. There has been a change like formal administrative space to be informal with other activities. This study aims to identify the behavior settings of the workspace of the Architecture Department, by observing research objects, describing the physical setting of space and the behavior setting of space users, and analyzing elements of the attributes that occur in space. This research is explorative-descriptive, using behavior mapping observation techniques that emphasize user behavior at a particular time (place-centered mapping), physical trace, and time budget. The results showed that the tendency of a physical arrangement of space affects user behavior and forms behavioral patterns and mental map configurations that tend to repeat themselves. Workspaces and waiting rooms tend to be flexible and adaptable, there are areas in the workspace area. In the workspace, it appears that the use of space in one setting undergoes a process of identifying behavior, but such identification tends not to affect the spatial arrangement.
