Cooperation, fairness and civic capital after an earthquake: Evidence from two Italian regions
Authors: Righi Simone , Pancotto Francesca , Giardini Francesca
Published: February 2022

Natural disasters put an enormous strain on civic capital, which can result in a decrease in trust and cooperation in the affected communities. However, the existing level of civic capital can buffer the effects of the disaster, determining completely different dynamics even in neighboring regions. In order to investigate the determinants of long-term resilience to natural disasters, we designed a 2x2 lab in the field experiments conducted in Marche and Emilia-Romagna, two Italian regions that were affected by major earthquakes in 2016 and 2012, respectively. We collected data in neighboring and comparable municipalities that were affected or not by earthquakes and we compared inhabitants’ prosocial choices in a Public Good Game and a Distribution game. Our results show that people affected by the earthquake were more prosocial in general, while at the individual level the effect of the earthquake is present only in people who suffered material damage via their increased desire for redistribution. We also show that civic capital was not different among regions or among people living inside or outside the earthquake area.
Won’t you be my neighbor? Geography, peer learning, and entrepreneur performance in Togo
Authors: Dimitriadis Stefan , Koning Rembrand
Published: February 2022

Entrepreneurs, especially in developing economies, rely on peers for advice and managerial knowledge. While a growing body of work shows that introducing entrepreneurs to new peers outside their immediate neighborhood and social circles improves performance, these results are seemingly at odds with work on geographic spillovers which suggests that entrepreneurs are especially likely to learn and benefit from their neighbors. We explore these diverging predictions using data from a training program in Togo, during which entrepreneurs were randomly assigned to meet and talk to peers from across the city of Lomé. We find that meeting neighbors increases entrepreneurs’ performance more than does meeting more distant peers. Profits increase by 10% when entrepreneurs get to know three neighbors who are on average 1 km closer. In additional analyses we find evidence that, in this context, entrepreneurs tend to be locally “under networked:” they are likelier to stay in touch with neighbors than with more distant peers and neighbors possess novel managerial knowledge. These results suggest that entrepreneurs in our context, and potentially in other developing economies, are often under networked, making neighbors particularly impactful for their performance.

Motivación de servicio público entre funcionarios públicos chilenos
Authors: Cuevas Carolina , González-Bustamante Bastián , Calderon-Orellana Magdalena , Barría Diego
Published: February 2022

En los últimos treinta años, el campo de la administración pública en América Latina ha girado en torno a cómo introducir reformas en el sector público inspiradas por la Nueva Gestión Pública. En efecto, la mayoría de las administraciones públicas se han enfocado casi exclusivamente en introducir este tipo de reformas, ignorando una serie de alternativas que han emergido en el debate académico. Una de esas alternativas es el enfoque de la motivación de servicio público, el cual analiza cómo ciertos factores intrínsecos, directamente asociados con la noción de servicio público, motivan el comportamiento de los empleados públicos. Este artículo tiene como objetivo fomentar un debate latinoamericano sobre cómo diseñar e implementar políticas de recursos humanos basadas en la teoría de la motivación de servicio público. A partir de una muestra no probabilística con 172 respuestas, el artículo identifica un número de factores de motivación de servicio público entre funcionarios públicos chilenos. Los hallazgos muestran que la atracción por las políticas públicas, el compromiso con el interés general y la compasión son factores tan poderosos como el amor por el dinero. Al mismo tiempo, los resultados muestran que el autosacrificio no motiva a los funcionarios públicos chilenos. A partir de estos hallazgos, se presenta una discusión sobre cómo la motivación de servicio público puede ser un enfoque útil para rediseñar políticas de recursos humanos.
Innovations in peer review in scholarly publishing: a meta-summary
Authors: Woods Helen Buckley , Brumberg Johanna , Kaltenbrunner Wolfgang , Pinfield Stephen , Waltman Ludo
Published: February 2022

Background: There are currently numerous innovations in peer review and quality assurance in scholarly publishing. The Research on Research Institute conducted a programme of co-produced projects investigating these innovations. This literature review was part of one such project ‘Experiments in peer review’ (Kaltenbrunner et al, 2022), which created an inventory and framework of peer review innovations. The aim of this literature review was to aid the development of the inventory by identifying innovations in peer review reported in the scholarly literature and by providing a summary of the different approaches. Methods: This meta-summary is based on data identified from Web of Science and Scopus limited from 2010 to 2021. A total of 247 papers were screened, with 6 review articles chosen for the focus of the literature review. Items were selected that described approaches to innovating peer review or illustrated examples. Results: The summary of innovations are drawn from 6 review articles: Bruce et al (2016); Tennant et al (2017); Burley (2017); Horbach and Halffman (2018); Tennant (2018); Barroga (2020). The innovations are divided into three high-level categories: approaches to peer review, reviewer focussed initiatives and technology to support peer review with sub-categories of results presented in tabular form and summarised. A summary of all innovations found is also presented. Conclusions: From a simple synthesis of the review authors’ conclusions, three key messages are presented: observations on current practice; authors’ views on the implications of innovations in peer review; and calls for action in peer review research and practice.
Can Adolescents Acquire Cultural Capital Through Social Capital Access and Exposure? Longitudinal Experimental Evidence of the Impact of Ties to College-Educated Adults
Authors: Gaddis S. Michael , Murphy Joseph
Published: February 2022

Scholarly debate focuses on whether cultural capital reproduces existing inequalities or provides a path to upward mobility. Most research, however, focuses only on cross-sectional associations and is unclear about how disadvantaged adolescents can increase their amounts of cultural capital. Traditionally, most adolescents’ interactions with adults occur across two axes of socialization: families and schools. Families provide opportunities to increase cultural capital while schools value and reward cultural capital. Thus, if adolescents do not obtain cultural capital through their families, they may be at a significant disadvantage when navigating the education system. We hypothesize that adolescents may be able to increase cultural capital through valuable social capital access and exposure – their ties to and meeting frequency with other important adults with knowledge of the education system. We investigate this topic using experimental longitudinal data on mentoring relationships. We find that high levels of social capital access and exposure positively affect cultural capital, but only for adolescents with highly educated parents. Our findings suggest that cultural capital may not be an engine of social mobility if adolescents from low-SES households cannot acquire or increase their cultural capital.
Teachers’ changing concerns during COVID-19, and the importance of time in education research
Authors: Trinidad Jose Eos
Published: February 2022

How have teachers’ concerns changed during the course of COVID-19? Using three survey waves of a national sample of US teachers (Spring2020 - Winter2021), we found increased concerns regarding teacher burnout, student disengagement, and learning loss as well as decreased concerns regarding home responsibilities and job security. We suggest opportunities for investigating predictors, consequences, and viable solutions to these concerns, as well as propose that education studies during COVID-19 be divided into four periods according to the main societal and educational concerns in a given period. More broadly, we highlight theoretical and practical implications of this temporal attention in education.

Attributing responsibility in devolved contexts. Experimental evidence from the UK
Authors: Alfonso Sandra León , Orriols Lluis
Published: February 2022

In devolved contexts, people may get it wrong in their responsibility assignments because they are unsure about who does what or because they filter their attributions of credit and blame through their political lenses. This paper theorises about these two mechanisms and tests the role of cognitive bias in moderating responsibility judgements in multilevel systems. Using a survey experiment on responsibility attribution for the NHS outcomes in Scotland and Wales, results show that partisanship is the strongest bias of responsibility assignments between regional and central authorities. Yet national identity also operates as cognitive bias, a role that so far has been theoretically and empirically overlooked in the literature. The empirical findings point to the role of partisanship and identity ascognitive guides to make responsibility judgements in complex institutional setting, such as the one that emerges from increasing devolution in the United Kingdom.
Pastoralism and Emergent Complex Settlement in the Middle Bronze Age, Azerbaijan: isotopic analyses of mobility strategies in transformation
Authors: Nugent Selin Elizabeth
Published: February 2022

ObjectivesThis article explores the scale and seasonal patterns of mobility at the complex settlement site of Qızqala during the Middle Bronze Age (2400–1,500 BCE). By integrating human bone, teeth, and environmental samples this research tests the hypothesis of the persistent importance of community-wide seasonal pastoral transhumance during the early formation of complex settlement systems of the South Caucasus.MethodsThis research applies stable oxygen and radiogenic strontium isotope analyses on incremental samples of human tooth enamel, bulk tooth enamel, and bone to resolve mobility patterns. Sequential and bulk sampling techniques elucidate seasonal and residential mobility behaviors. Extensive environmental isotope samples of plant and water were collected through regional survey and establish local and regional isotopic baselines, which are compared to human isotope analysis results.ResultsQızqala individuals exhibit low isotopic variability compared to regional contemporaries. 87Sr/86Sr ratios from human remains indicate seasonal and residential isotopic variability within the baseline ranges of local landscapes. δ18O values display erratic patterns, but correspond to seasonal variability with fluctuations between highland and lowland altitudinal zone baseline values.ConclusionsResults suggest that isotopic analysis of multiple elements and sequential enamel samples offers finer resolution on the complexities of human mobility strategies and elucidate the daily lives of often overlooked mobile populations. Higher resolution of individual mobility reveals shared routine behaviors that underscore the importance of diverse social collaborations in forming complex polities in the South Caucasus.

Fight-or-Flight for America: The Affective Conditioning of Christian Nationalist Ideological Views during the Transition to Adulthood
Authors: Rotolo Michael
Published: February 2022

Christian nationalism has gained attention both inside and outside of academia for its powerful influence on sociopolitical attitudes, voting behaviors, and political mobilization. However, limited work has examined how Christian nationalist views develop, the mechanisms by which they relate to sociopolitical attitudes, or potential varieties of Christian nationalism. Building on recent culture and cognition scholarship, this article synthesizes insights from affective neuroscience to conceptualize the fundamental role of emotions in shaping ideological views and cultural attitudes—an enculturation process termed “affective conditioning.” The author then examines the development of Christian nationalist ideological views during the transition to adulthood using longitudinal interviews, field notes, and surveys with 41 Christian nationalists from the 10-year National Study of Youth and Religion (NSYR). The author identifies distinct traumatic upbringing experiences among respondents, which condition heightened RAGE and FEAR affective systems. This gives Christian nationalists an enduring sense that their way of life is “under attack” and motivates reactionary sociopolitical attitudes. The author also distinguishes two dominant affective types of Christian nationalism, dubbed “Fight for America” and “Flight for America.” These findings illuminate how both past and present social conditions interact with emotional neuroarchitecture to influence ideological views and cultural attitudes.
Static and Dynamic Connectivity Analysis of Human Brain via Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Authors: Sen Bhaskar
Published: February 2022

Functional connectivity of brain refers to statistical dependence of brain functions among often remote neuronal units. This thesis addresses two novel ways to analyse brain functional connectivity. We provide an entropy based technique called sub-graph entropy to classify brain states. This metric is then used to classify adolescents suffering from obsessive compulsive disorder. The thesis also proposes a new tensor based decomposition to analyse dynamic functional connectivity of brain. In comparison with static connectivity, dynamic analysis assumes that brain network evolves and changes over time. Finally, a combined static-dynamic feature extraction model is used to classify adolescents suffering from major depressive disorder.

Authors: Samawi Nora , Kax Therese
Published: February 2022

Background: For many patients, surgical procedures can cause anxiety in the perioperative process. Anxiety is a natural subjective and objective reaction which can lead to various complications for the patient in connection with surgery such as increased need for anesthesia and increased postoperative pain. In previous studies, preoperative nursing measures have been proven to alleviate patients’ anxiety before surgical procedures. By examining which intraoperative nursing measures that patients feel as alleviating for their anxiety in connection with surgery, an opportunity is created for the nurse specialist to work person-centered and to minimize the complications for patients. Aim: To investigate which intraoperative nursing measures alleviate adult patients' anxiety during a surgical procedure under local or regional anesthesia. Method: An integrative literature review of a total of 13 scientific articles was carried out: nine consisting of quantitative design, three of qualitative design and one was a mixed method. The databases used for the literature search were CINAHL and PubMed. The articles were published between the year of 2012 and 2020. Results: Four themes were identified: The operation team care and treatment, Tactile contact and stimulation, Sound distractions, and Video distractions. Conclusion: Intraoperative nursing measures such as the dialogue between the nurse specialist and the patient and playing of music can alleviate the patient's anxiety in connection with surgery and prevent and alleviate the patient's suffering as well as additional costs for the hospital and community.

Authors: Z. Nagara Zeina , Y. Saour Kawkab
Published: February 2022

This study concerned with phytochemical investigation and methods of extraction and separation of active constituents from Valeriana officinalis plant cultivated in Iraq. Due to the large number of active constituents in Valeriana officinalis, it was necessary to make analytical study of its constituents to determine the chemical nature of these constituents and then determine the main classes (terpenes and iridoids) using chemical reagents specific for each class. Different organic solvents like ethanol (70%) used in soxhlet apparatus and hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol were used separately to extract the main active constituents by maceration. Through comparison between these solvents using thin layer chromatography (TLC), it has been found that hexane was best suited to extract most of the active constituents from the plant by maceration method. Analytical study showed that terpens was separated and purified using preparative TLC and preparative HPLC. Identification of isolated component (valtrate) from roots of plant was obtained using HPLC and PHPLC also depending on some material-specific constants such as infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Results of analysis showed that Valeriana officinalis cultivated in Iraq is a good source of many constituents with different important pharmacological activities. The pharmacological study showed that the total organic plant extract has sleep induction effect when injected I.P. to experimental mice.

Authors: Lewier Pebbriani Clarita , Sinaga Kelly
Published: February 2022

Berpikir kritis merupakan salah satu atribut yang harus dikembangkan dalam pembelajaran karena dengan berpikir kritis seseorang dapat menganalisis, menjelaskan dan menyimpulkan informasi yang diterima sehingga dapat memahami inti pembelajaran. Fakta yang terjadi siswa masih kurang dalam berpikir kritis yang dapat dilihat dari kurangnya kemampuan siswa menganalisis informasi yang diberikan karena cenderung menerima informasi tanpa mengolahnya terlebih dahulu. Maka penting bagi guru mengembangkan kemampuan berpikir kritis siswa saat pembelajaran materi hidrokarbon. Pendekatan aktivitas Aesop’s dapat membantu meningkatkan kemampuan berpikir kritis melalui keterampilan berbasis observasi, logika hipotesis deduktif, analisis data dan inkuiri terbimbing. Sehingga tujuan dari artikel ini untuk mengkaji kemampuan berpikir kritis siswa dalam materi hidrokarbon melalui pendekatan aktivitas Aesop’s. Metode penelitian terdiri atas dua tahap yaitu: 1) Studi literatur menggunakan 31 referensi untuk mengkaji kemampuan berpikir kritis dan pendekatan aktivitas Aesop’s. 2) Penerapan dan observasi disalah satu sekolah Kristen di Jakarta. Hasil pembahasan yang diperoleh adalah: 1) Siswa dapat menjelaskan data faktual dengan jelas di LKS. 2) Memahami pertanyaan pada soal kuis dan menjawab dengan benar. 3) Menarik suatu kesimpulan pembelajaran berdasarkan hasil diskusi siswa. Hasil dari pendekatan aktivitas Aesop’s tersebut dapat disimpulkan mampu menuntun siswa untuk mengembangkan kemampuan berpikir kritis dan dapat digunakan untuk menjelaskan informasi dengan pengetahuan yang benar sesuai dengan kehendak Tuhan maka saran dalam penulisan ini adalah diperlukan penelitian lebih lanjut agar dapat berlangsung dengan efektif.
