Conflicting Reports? Augustus’ Relationship with the Senate and Established Order During His Road to Power in Res Gestae, Velleius Paterculus, Suetonius, and Tacitus
Authors: Poulsen Aske Damtoft
Published: September 2024

This paper explores four accounts of Augustus’ relationship with the senate and established order during his early career, with particular focus on his involvement in the civil wars: his own Res Gestae, Velleius Paterculus’ Roman History 2.59–89, Suetonius’ Life of Augustus, and Tacitus’ Annals 1.1–10. Through comparison of these—at times wildly conflicting—accounts, it demonstrates that relations with the senate play a significant role in verdicts on the first emperor’s rise to power. In Res Gestae Augustus executes the will of the senate from start to finish, in Velleius Paterculus he is temporarily forced to oppose the senate when it falls under the sway of the ‘Pompeian Party’, in Suetonius his questionable early career is offset by his later ciuilitas and commitment to uphold senatorial authority, while in Tacitus he is a revolutionary who relentlessly undermines the senate and turns the state upside down.

Authors: Nurtati Nurtati , Normawati Normawati , Pattimukay Hengky V. R.
Published: September 2024

This study uses a quantitative method with a sample size of 60 people, utilizing primary and secondary data. Data collection was conducted through questionnaires, observations, and documentation, with data analysis performed using sociometric analysis tools. The results reveal that the implementation of the pharmacist practice permit service policy at the Health Department of Central Maluku Regency is evident through dimensions of consistency, transparency, accountability, fairness, participation, effectiveness, and efficiency, all showing high percentage levels. However, maximization is still needed to achieve the highest standard percentages.

These factors cumulatively contribute significantly to the implementation process. The remaining percentage for improvement can be targeted for follow-up maximization while prioritizing these influencing factors. The findings successfully explore and synergize theoretical and practical approaches, revealing the quantitative achievement levels of policy implementation. This has implications for strengthening and maximizing the implementation of the pharmacist practice permit service policy at the Health Department of Central Maluku Regency. In summary, the research demonstrates that the pharmacist practice permit service policy's implementation at the Health Department of Central Maluku Regency is highly effective in key dimensions but requires further optimization. Influencing factors such as communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure play a significant role in the successful implementation. The study's findings provide valuable insights for improving policy implementation, ensuring a more effective and efficient service delivery in the future.

Authors: Vanchugov Anton Vladimirovich , Smyslova Tatyana Nikolaevna
Published: September 2024

The research subject is the degree of application of new works not originally intended for concert performance in accompanist training. The research aims to substantiate the need to update and use rarely performed works in the educational process, which makes it possible to expand the horizons of performers and listeners. As a result, M. Weinberg’s opera “The Passenger” is considered for the first time as an example of practical application of a 20th-century work written in a complex, innovative musical language and endowed with deep psychologism during classes with piano faculty students. Weinberg’s orchestral thinking transferred to the piano sound within the framework of the clavier allows for the use of new methods of studying the work and practicing one’s own performing skills. The scientific novelty of the research lies in creating necessary transitions, cuts of individual opera numbers most suitable for performance within the framework of a concert, as well as in the first comprehensive consideration of the opera’s main characters from the viewpoint of the dramatic development of images and their psychology. The scope of application of the results presented in the article using the examples from Weinberg’s opera relates to the professional practice of an accompanist, contributing to a significant increase in the performing skills of students and invariably bringing about an expansion of the horizons of both performers in other training program specializations and listeners.

Means of actualizing communicative demonstrativeness in business discourse
Authors: Tislenkova Irina Aleksandrovna
Published: September 2024

The aim of the study is to detect the ways of expressing demonstrative tonality in business discourse. The work is novel in that it is the first to describe the discursive specificity of demonstrativeness in the speech of a business person. As a result of the study, it has been found that demonstrativeness is a tonality that defines the process of speech interaction, which implements the functions of self-presentation and influencing the emotions and feelings of the addressee in its accentuated and non-accentuated forms. Explicit communicative demonstrativeness in business discourse is realized by positive adjectival and adverbial epithets in positive and superlative degrees of comparison and hyperbolic form, expressive phraseological units, bookish speech patterns, foreign-language terms – industry words, constatives with positive connotation, antithesis, hyperbole, speech tactics of self-aggrandizement, hyperbolic metaphor, and introductory intensifiers. Implicit communicative demonstrativeness in the communication of a business person is expressed by semiotic complexes of non-verbal means, such as clothing style and manner of communication.

Nagari Batu Bulek Tanah Datar district has an extensive sugar palm plantation, which stretches along the slopes of Mount Sago. However, they do not process the potential for an abundant harvest, because the community does not have the knowledge and skills to process fro and fro into various foods. So that abundant natural resources do not bring prosperity to them. Participatory assistance has been carried out to hone the knowledge and skills of the Lotus Farmers Group (KWT) and Cempaka Mekar Nagari Batu Bulek to apply high sugar preservation technology and natural ingredients, based on the zero waste concept. Before receiving assistance, this KWT member was only able to process fruit and fro into compote and ice and fro. After getting assistance, now the KWT members are proficient in making various jams and fro as well as dragon fruit syrup and eco-enzymes from peels and unused fruit scraps.

The substantial literature on charitable giving–a prototypical pro-social behavior–commonly faces constraints on sample size, diversity, or experimental design, resulting ina fragmented understanding of factors that influence charitable giving and theirinteractions. We developed a game that co-varies multiple factors that influencegiving—akin to running thousands of experiments. Over 2.7 million decisions, someincentivized, from 257,000 participants in 203 countries were collected. Helping at least 3or 6 strangers, on average, surpassed even the strongest effects of giving to oneself or arelative, respectively. This finding holds cross-culturally. Further, we found substantialheterogeneity from experimental stimuli in all main factor effects (e.g., identifiable victimeffect), often reversing direction. Our findings paint a more comprehensive and promisingpicture of human prosociality.
A longitudinal replication study testing migration from video game loot boxes to gambling in British Columbia, Canada
Authors: Palmer Lucas , Brooks Gabriel , Clark Luke
Published: September 2024

Background: Loot boxes are randomized reward mechanics in modern video games that share features with conventional gambling products. Research studies have begun to test longitudinal patterns (‘migration’) from engagement with loot boxes to gambling behavior. This study investigated such effects at a 6-month follow-up in an online sample of young adult video gamers (aged 19 - 25) from British Columbia, Canada. Methods: Participants were stratified into two subgroups at their baseline assessment: 83 non-gamblers and 43 gamblers, after cleaning. As baseline, participants provided responses to the Risky Loot Box Index (RLI), and estimates of their past year spending on both randomized (i.e. loot boxes) and non-randomized (‘direct purchase’) microtransactions. Microtransaction spending and RLI scores at baseline were tested as predictors of self-identified gambling initiation and spend at follow-up. We employed two different types of analyses: a set of frequentist regressions and a corresponding set of Bayesian regressions.Results: At baseline, the gamblers showed higher levels of engagement with both randomized and non-randomized microtransactions. Among non-gamblers at baseline, loot box spending and RLI predicted gambling initiation at the follow-up in a Bayesian logistic regression with informed priors. Loot box spending and RLI at baseline predicted gambling expenditure at follow-up in both the frequentist and Bayesian linear regressions. Spending on direct purchase microtransactions did not predict gambling initiation in either set of models when controlling for loot box spending, underscoring the role of randomized rewards. Conclusions: These data provide further prospective evidence for gambling ‘migration’ in a sample recruited in Western Canada. Young adults who spend money on loot boxes are at elevated risk for real-money gambling, and regulatory responses may be directed towards this group.
Increasing Choice Boosts Relational Pursuit in Online Dating: Testing Three Competing Mechanisms of Interpersonal Evaluation
Authors: Hu Junwen , Markowitz David Matthew
Published: September 2024

Online dating often provides access to large choice sets, thus more dating alternatives. Prior work suggests more choice may lead to negative relational outcomes, yet the mechanism underlying this relationship is unclear. Thus, we examined the process underlying the link between choice in online dating and relational pursuit and commitment readiness, while articulating alternative theoretical explanations for the effect. Our preregistered experimentrandomly assigned 193 participants to high (thirty-one profiles) or low (six profiles) choice conditions to select one person to go on a date with, and such profiles were part of a bespoke database that varied traits and preferences to resemble heterogeneity in a dating market. Contradicting prior work, high choice participants reported greater relational pursuit intentions with their choice than low choice participants, which was mediated by perceived compatibility. Our findings highlight the merits of considering unique properties of interpersonal evaluation in online dating when studying choice quantity.
Delineating Mastery Goal Complexes in Teacher Professional Learning: A Qualitative Exploration of 'Needing to' versus 'Wanting to'
Authors: Daumiller Martin , Butler Ruth , Dresel Markus
Published: September 2024

This study explores the complex dynamics of achievement goal pursuit within the context of teacher professional learning by investigating reasons underlying goals, specifically “wanting to” and “needing to”. Through half-structured interviews, we asked a broad sample of 24 German school teachers about their personal goals for professional learning and inquired how much the respective aims were pursued based on them “wanting to” and “needing to”. Two raters coded the goals using an established category system (κ = .74). Learning approach and task approach goals were most frequently mentioned, learning avoidance and task avoidance goals also occurred. Each of the four mastery goals were pursued because of “wanting to” (as a meaningful end-state in itself, including genuine interests and intrinsic enjoyment) and/or “needing to” (as a requirement or precondition for successful accomplishments and external pressures and obligations) reasons. Findings render ecological support for the existence of (mastery) goal complexes, and suggest “wanting to” and “needing to” as a psychologically meaningful distinction.

Cognitive development is associated with how predictable caregivers are, but themechanisms driving this are unclear. One possibility is caregiver predictability initially shapeshow infants gather information for learning. Here, caregiver-infant dyads (N=222, 2-6-months-old, all female caregivers) in South Africa and Malawi engaged in naturalistic play before theirinteractions were hand-annotated to measure caregiver predictability and infant gaze. In bothcountries, temporal variation in caregiver predictability shaped infant looking dynamics—infantsattended to specific sensory signals (η2=0.04), and specific timepoints (η2=0.10), that were usefulfor them based on their caregivers’ typical behavior. These findings provide a framework by whichthe predictability of caregiver behavior may shape fundamental, early optimization of visualattention for learning in infancy, and later cognitive development.
The NCPTSD Model for Digital Mental Health: A Public Sector Approach To Development, Evaluation, Implementation, and Optimization of Resources for Helping Trauma Survivors
Authors: Owen Jason E.
Published: September 2024

Objective: Many digital mental health technologies have been developed to address the psychological needs of trauma survivors and those with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and recent efforts have been aimed at improving implementation of such technologies. Despite several overlapping expert summaries and recommendations for procedures and processes necessary to deploy digital mental health solutions for the public, there remains a need for a comprehensive, at-scale model that guides ongoing optimization of digital mental health technologies once created and deployed. Method: The National Center for PTSD (NCPTSD)’s Model for Digital Mental Health has been developed to address existing gaps and has been used to achieve broad reach, positive reception, and measurable public health benefit in the U.S. and around the world. The NCPTSD Model for Digital Mental Health is outlined, highlighting key elements and using examples to provide guidance to other programs intent on implementing digital health tools. Results: Strategies are provided to facilitate wider use of the model in a variety of settings, particularly those with limited resources, as well as key challenges and potential paths forward. Conclusions: The NCPTSD Model for Digital Mental Health provides an evidence-based and pragmatic approach for how digital mental health technologies can be optimized to improve the lives of veterans and members of the public who are living with the psychological consequences of trauma.
