Published: January 2025

Background. Successful breastfeeding and good maternal mental health are key to long term health of mothers and children and are globally recognised health goals. However, relationships between maternal mental health and breastfeeding outcomes are complex, with evidence of bi-directional effects complicated by culturally specific residual confounding and selection bias. Aim. To examine, for the first time, associations between maternal genetic liability for neuroticism (underlying trait linked to depression and anxiety over the lifespan) and breastfeeding intention, initiation, and maintenance. Methods. We used data from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) prospective birth cohort. Maternal genotype data was used to create polygenic scores (PGS) for neuroticism and educational attainment. Mothers self-reported breastfeeding intentions at 32 weeks’ gestation, breastfeeding initiation within the first week after birth, and maintenance of breastfeeding to 6 months post birth. We examined associations between maternal genetic liability for neuroticism and breastfeeding outcomes using unadjusted logistic regression models (max. n=4997), and models that were adjusted for maternal PGS for educational attainment, and the other breastfeeding variables (intention, initiation, maintenance, max. N=4765). Results. In mutually adjusted models, there was strong evidence that genetic liability for neuroticism was associated with lower odds for breastfeeding maintenance (OR=0.89, 95%CI=0.83-0.94, p<0.001) specifically, with no evidence for independent associations with intention or initiation. That is, mothers with higher genetic liability for neuroticism were less likely to maintain breastfeeding to 6 months postpartum. This association remained when adjusting for maternal PGS for education, where a similar pattern was observed; genetic liability for education was most strongly linked to breastfeeding maintenance. Conclusions. The specificity of links between neuroticism and maintenance of breastfeeding could direct targeting of efforts to support women with emotional difficulties in maintaining breastfeeding. This is important because currently most efforts to support breastfeeding women focus on intention and initiation.
German Post-War Election Database (GPWED)
Authors: Voß Julian
Published: January 2025

Historical social science research on the electoral politics of transitional countries is often undermined by a lack of disaggregated, fine-grained election data. This paper presents the first national database of municipal-level results for one of the most notable cases of a transition to democracy in recent history: Post World War II West Germany. Spanning the country's initial six federal elections between 1949 and 1969, the data covers significant historical developments such as the early phase of economic reconstruction and recovery, the social and political integration of millions of Germans expelled from the former eastern territories, the beginning judicial confrontation with the crimes of the Nazi regime, and the emergence of radical left-wing activism during the 1960s. The database will allow future research to address important questions on topics such as democratization, the dynamics of post-authoritarian and post-war politics, and the long-term evolution of electoral politics in one of Europe's most populous nations.
Modeling location-invariant orthographic processing in the Finnish language with an inflectional morphology
Authors: Hautala Jarkko
Published: January 2025

Previous research indicates that readers may construct a location-invariant letter string representation before associating it with a lexical representation. In neural network modeling, this is achieved with a two-stack model in which a hidden layer first learns to map location-specific letter representations into word-centered positions. Then, another stack is trained to map them into lexical representations. However, the model has been validated only in one language (French). In this study, we replicated the model with a Finnish language corpus having substantially more resembling words (KISSAA, KISSAN, KISSAT) and with modern and accessible programming tools. To gain insight into the model’s coding principles, we also trained the model with random letter strings, analyzed the model’s hidden layer activation patterns, and conducted an error analysis. The results indicated that random letter string training leads to superior letter identity and position coding. However, the natural corpus with many close words leads to a more fine-grained mapping from word-centered letter string representations to lexical representations. Finally, bigram coding may emerge in weights connecting hidden to output nodes. We conclude that the one- or two-stack model seems a potent candidate for developing a universal and comprehensive connectionist model of reading.
Automatic detection of dyslexia based on eye movements during reading in Russian
Authors: Laurinavichyute Anna , Lopukhina Anastasiya , Reich David
Published: January 2025

Dyslexia, a common learning disability, requires an early diagnosis. However, current screening tests are very time- and resource-consuming. We present an LSTM model that aims to automatically classify dyslexia based on eye movements recorded during natural reading combined with basic demographic information and linguistic features of the fixated words. The proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art model and reaches the AUC of 0.93. We additionally discuss the outcomes of several ablation studies assessing which features are critical for model performance.

This study explores the conditional dependencies among items in Raven’s Colored Progressive Matrices (CPM), a non-verbal measure of cognitive ability and fluid intelligence, within a sample of school-aged children. To this aim, we applied Bayesian networks (BNs), to data obtained from 255 participants, aged 4 to 11 years. We evaluated a variety of models, starting from the complete independence model and progressing to sequential, data-informed structures. The results highlighted that inter-item dependencies were particularly significant among kindergarten-aged children, suggesting that their problem-solving approaches may be influenced by their previous responses. The Sequential Data-Driven model consistently outperformed traditional human-driven hypothesis models, indicating the presence of complex interrelationships that could challenge the assumption of local independence in psychometric assessments. Cross-validation analyses revealed developmental differences in model fit, with optimal performance in kindergarten and increased variability as children transition to primary school. These findings advocate for the development of refined scoring methodologies that incorporate item interdependencies and prompt further investigation into the cognitive processes underlying these dependencies. Our study has implications for the psychometric validation of cognitive assessments, underscoring the importance of integrating complex item relationships in test design and analysis to enhance measurement accuracy and validity.
Using self-reported sum scores to measure affective disorders: symptom count or symptom severity?
Authors: van Eeden Wessel Adrianus
Published: January 2025

Using self-report questionnaire sumscores for this purpose has both theoretical and methodological shortcomings. One of these shortcomings is that the symptom count and the severity of symptoms are obscured by an overall sum score. We compared the diagnostic value of the symptom count versus symptom severity captured within sum scores used to assess affective disorders (n = 2947).For the Inventroy of Depressive Symptomatology – Self Report (IDS-SR) and the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), the number of symptoms was more strongly related to depression or anxiety disorders than to the severity of symptoms. For the Fear Questionnaire (FQ), the severity of symptoms was more strongly related to anxiety than to the count of symptoms. Our study underscores the distinct and independent roles of symptom count and symptom severity in relation to meeting DSM criteria for affective disorders. Simply aggregating item scores may oversimplify. Researchers and clinicians should contemplate evaluating symptom count and severity as separate entities to enhance diagnostic accuracy.

Authors: Goyanes Manuel , Háló Gergö , Lopezosa Carlos
Published: January 2025

This paper conducts a systematic literature review on the intersection of artificial intelligence and journalism, emphasizing both the potential advantages and challenges—ethical concerns and regulatory gaps—this integration presents. The review highlights current applications of AI in several journalistic areas, including content creation, audience engagement, and misinformation detection, whilst underscoring the ethical implications of AI. It identifies a notable scarcity of quantitative research and calls for a balanced methodological approach that incorporates both qualitative and quantitative methods, including large-scale surveys and qualitative techniques. Furthermore, the study highlights the lack of empirical research on AI regulation in journalism, advocating for studies that examine the value of regulatory frameworks for media ethics and journalism practice. Various thematic and methodological avenues for future research to examine the impact of AI’s evolving role in journalism are also discussed.
The Dream Salary in Academia: A Large-Scale Study of Gender Differences in Financial Expectations
Authors: Kwiek Marek , Roszka Wojciech
Published: January 2025

In this examination of gender differences in financial expectations in academia, we used survey data (N = 11,315 scientists and scholars, 19 academic disciplines) integrated with individual-level bibliometric and demographic data from Scopus. We studied what Polish scientists and scholars with various demographic characteristics, academic attitudes, and bibliometric profiles considered their dream salary. Top dreamers were defined as the upper 10% of scientists in terms of self-reported level of their dream salary. Gender differences are much weaker than expected: Women generally tend to have almost equal dream salaries compared to men across age groups, academic positions, and disciplines. Although men are 56% overrepresented in the group of top dreamers, their financial expectations are similar compared to women. Among top dreamers, the median dream salary for men is only 5% higher than the median dream salary for women. Across all STEM disciplines combined, men on average expect salaries 19% higher than women (in non-STEM 15%, and in MED only 11%). Strongly research-oriented men expect higher median salaries than strongly research-oriented women; male top performers (the upper 10%) expect higher salaries than female top performers; and male internationalists in research expect higher salaries than female internationalists. Finally, as logistic regression shows, men with a strong research orientation, working in STEM disciplines, and with strong international research collaborations are most likely to be top dreamers.

Published: January 2025

Practical educational and human resource development strategies must maximize the relationship between skill development and employability outcomes. This research examined the relationship between external labor market, university brand, curriculum, emotional quotient, teamwork, and entrepreneurial skills with the student’s perceived employability. This study used a quantitative approach, descriptive research design, and a primary questionnaire method, along with collected 384 responses from college students. To determine sample non-probability convenience sampling used in the study. The study conducted regression, correlation analyses, and descriptive statistics to analyze the data. The findings show a positive relationship between SPE and factors like curriculum, university brand, entrepreneurial skill, emotional quotient, teamwork, and external labor market conditions. Importantly, the quality of the curriculum and the university brand were found to be fundamental determinants of how employable graduates felt about themselves. The study recommends increasing graduates' employability by strengthening institutional reputation, encouraging entrepreneurial skills, and improving curriculum relevance. These observations add to the quantity of information on employability and provide helpful advice for academic institutions and policymakers who want to match curricula to industry needs better. Future researchers can examine the long-term effects of these traits and determine how applicable they are in different geographic and cultural perspectives.

Issues and Challenges in Nepalese English Writing
Authors: Keshav Raj Chalise
Published: January 2025

Nepalese English writing has followed a global trend of modernity, with a central role, since the political changes of the 1950s. It has changed, especially with the advent of Laxmi Prasad Devkota as a precursor of it. Having no long history, it has emerged along with the introduction of English education and has served as a bridge to global literature. Initially, it was designed to be used by the elites only, during the Rana regime. However, it has held ground now, as the central tenet of English Writing in Nepal/Nepali authors. It has endured many modes of its history. This article attempts to examine the history of Nepalese English writing, its trends, and the issues and challenges it has been facing for a long. It follows the theory of historical observation as the tool and examines the writings of previous writers as the foundation to set a departure. The observation involves the trend of writing in English, both, creation and translation. It will mark a milestone in the historical observation of the writing trends in Nepalese English writing, especially in unearthing the issues and challenges of writing in English with Nepali context and content.

Analytical Discussion on India-China Imports and Exports
Authors: Sharma Jagriti
Published: January 2025

In the first strategic dialogue with China, the Vice Chairman of the Planning Commission, Montek Singh Ahluwalia, emphasized the need to control the trade deficit by urging China to open its markets to Indian IT and pharmaceutical companies. The Chinese delegation was led by Zhang Ping, Chairman of China’s National Development and Reform Commission. Considering China’s advancements in high-speed rail technology and networks, India expressed interest in collaborating with China for railway development. Both sides also agreed to enhance cooperation in energy efficiency, conservation, and environmental protection. In the 21st century, India and China appear to be prioritizing economic growth over historical disputes. India-China trade continues to grow due to governmental and non-governmental efforts. However, the trade has consistently been in favor of China, and India’s trade deficit with China continues to widen.

THE DIALECTIC OF HADITH BETWEEN SALAFI-SUFI AND ITS INFLUENCE ON RELIGIOUS PRACTICE IN WEST SUMATRA
Authors: Nofri Andy.N  , Ja’far Assagaf  , Kamaluddin Nurdin Marjuni
Published: January 2025

The understanding of the hadith becomes diverse when it is read and understood from different perspectives. The condition is static when the hadith is understood textually but will become elastic when approached and analyzed with a ta'wil approach. This study aims to reveal the salafi-sufi hadith and its influence on religious practices in West Sumatra. The method used is descriptive analysis by revealing the Salafi and Sufi ways and then analyzing the character so that it has an impact on differences in religious practice. The results showed that the differences in views in understanding the hadith were due to efforts to legitimize religious authority, the textual salafi group did not open space to develop a text but on the other hand the Sufis who tended to use the construction of kasyf accommodated the value of locality so that it affected religious practice both in terms of perspective and attitude.
INTERRELIGIOUS DIALOGUE TO THE RECOGNITION OF RELIGIONS: AN ANALYSIS OF HABIB JA'FAR AL HADAR INTERRELIGIOUS DIALOGUE ON LOG-IN CONTENT
Authors: Riza Muhammad  , Imronudin  , Muhammad Hirzy Haikal
Published: January 2025

Continuous concerns about intolerance among religious communities have given rise to new models of dialogue facilitated by religious communities on social media. Habib Ja'far al Hadar and Onadio Leonardo are unique and contemporary representations of the commitment to interreligious dialogue on social media for peace between religious communities. This research is qualitative, descriptive-exploratory. The data source for this study was obtained through the Log-in podcast content, while secondary data was taken from books, journals, and media related to interreligious dialogue. Data collection techniques are divided into Observation and Documentation. Data analysis techniques include data reduction and presentation using a pluralism approach. Log-in discussions between religious communities are comedic, honest, open, and enthusiastic about learning from different people without demanding absolute truth and not patronizing each other. The model of interreligious dialogue practiced in the Log-In Podcast is love dialogue. The term Love Dialogue is an exploratory meaning of several podcast episodes. It is taken from Habib Ja'far's sect of love, which has the principles of compassion and brotherhood in humanity. Interreligious dialogue shifts to religious recognition because of the same vision and mission.
NAVIGATING DIGITAL DA’WAH: HANAN ATTAKI’S APPROACH AND NAHDATUL ULAMA’S AUTHORITY ON SOCIAL MEDIA
Authors: A'thoina Inna , Abdullah Mustafa Mohamad Al-Aboosi
Published: January 2025

Hanan Attaki, founder of the Shift (a youth hijrah movement), pledged allegiance (bai’at) to Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), one of Indonesia’s most prominent traditionalist Islamic organizations, sparking significant responses from his extensive social media following of ten million on Instagram and two million on YouTube, most of whom are young people. This paper aims to explore the new step of Hanan Attaki’s da’wah and the religious authority of NU’s Ulema through social media by examining shifts in Hanan Attaki’s da’wah approach pre- and post-affiliation and investigating how his affiliation enhances the influence of NU’s ulema mainly through his social media platforms, using Fajri Alatas’ theory of religious authority. This study uses a qualitative method by analyzing content on the YouTube and Instagram accounts of Hanan Attaki using netlytic assistant. This paper argues that joining Hanan Attaki at NU is one of his da’wah strategies to spread da’wah across society, including the grassroots. At the same time, Hanan Attaki contributes to spreading the authority of NU ulema and its ideology among millennials through social media.
Influencing Factors on Student’s Willingness to Embrace Cloud Computing: An Empirical Study in Sri Lanka

Cloud computing is an important factor in the realm of
information technology; however, its adoption by individual users
and students remains insufficient. This paper examines the
elements that affect students’ intention to use cloud services,
addressing a gap in the literature that predominantly focuses on
business customers. A structured questionnaire was given to 347
respondents in order to test a model based on the Theory of
Planned Behavior (TPB) and the Technology Acceptance Model
(TAM). Descriptive analysis, principal component analysis, and
Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) were employed to infer the
results. The findings indicate that perceived usefulness, perceived
behavioral control, subjective norms, and attitudes toward cloud
computing all exert a direct influence on students' intention to
utilize cloud computing. It was found that behavioral intention
was indirectly influenced by perceived ease of use, perceived
transferability of computer skills, and trust in cloud computing
providers. Additionally, perceived risk was directly affected by
concerns related to vendor lock-in and security. Attitudes toward
cloud computing were directly shaped by perceived usefulness,
which, in turn, was indirectly influenced by ease of use,
transferability of computer skills, and trust in providers.
Furthermore, the results suggest that perceived usefulness acted
as a fully mediating variable, whereas attitudes toward cloud
computing served as only a partial mediator. As policy
implications, the paper suggests that academic policies should
enhance students' intention to adopt cloud services by
emphasizing the practical benefits of cloud computing, enhancing
user-friendliness, promoting digital literacy, ensuring data
security and transparency, and fostering positive attitudes toward
cloud technologies.
RISK MANAGEMENT IN SEAPORTS OF UKRAINEIN PEACETIME AND UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF THE MARTIALLAW
Authors:   Odessa National Maritime University, Kyriukhin Artem , Afanasieva Olga ,   Odessa National Maritime University
Published: January 2025

The article examines the concepts of «risk» and «risk management» based on the analysis of scientific works of domestic and foreign scientists, taking into account the provisions of the international standard ISO 31000-2018 «Risk Management ‒ Recom-mendations». In modern conditions, risk management occupies an important place in the management of enterprises. It is well known that the degree of risk exposure, to which enterprises are exposed in the course of their activities, depends on numerous factors of the external and internal environment. That is why there is a growing need for specialized anti-crisis management at modern enterprises, including those operating in seaports.The article presents the classification of risks with their grouping into risks of the internal and external environment. The main stages of the enterprise's risk management are determined, which make it possible to prevent the negative consequences of the risk with the help of effective crisis management, and also prevent additional costs at the enterprise or reduce them to a minimum.The approach to the construction of the risk management system of the seaport in the conditions of the influence of external and internal risks in the conditions of martial law is also considered. Based on the analysis of the seaports of the Odesa region, the article summarizes the main practical risks of the ports, which they face in their daily activities. Identified risks of everyday activities, as well as new ones that additionally arose during the martial law. The probability of occurrence of risks is determined, the factors contributing to their occurrence are identified, the consequences in the event of risks are realized, and measures to prevent their occurrence are determined as elements of port risk management.The practical significance of the conducted research is to help port administrations develop their security system based on the presented risk management measures, with the introduction of appropriate additions and changes specific to the given particular port.The term «seaport» in the article refers to the branches of the State Enterprise «Administration of Seaports of Ukraine».Keywords: types of risk, risk management, martial law, sea port, organization environment.

Authors: Castillo-Acobo Roxana , Martínez-Puma Elena , Esquivel-Las-Heras Janeth , Castillo Toledo Arnaldo
Published: January 2025

Introducción: El envejecimiento global avanza rápidamente, con importantes implicaciones demográficas, sociales y de salud. Este estudio analiza el desempeño cognitivo de adultos mayores saludables que reportan quejas de memoria, identificando factores que influyen en su cognición. Metodología: En una campaña de salud mental, se evaluó a 574 adultos mayores comunitarios utilizando el Test del Estado Mental (MMSE) y el Test de depresión geriátrica de Yesavage. Se identificaron 25 con queja subjetiva de memoria (QSM) y 49 con sospecha de deterioro cognitivo leve (DCL), quienes fueron evaluados con pruebas específicas de memoria, como el Test de Aprendizaje Verbal Hopkins, Símbolos y Dígitos, y la Figura Compleja de Rey. Resultados: Los grupos presentan alta escolaridad, pocos problemas de salud y buenos puntajes en el MMSE y Yesavage. Sin embargo, se encuentran diferencias significativas en los resultados de los test de Hopkins y Símbolos y dígitos. La escolaridad muestra un efecto significativo en la memoria a largo plazo en el test de Hopkins. Discusión: La QSM y el DCL pueden ser indicadores tempranos de deterioro cognitivo, aunque a menudo son difíciles de detectar. Conclusiones: Los adultos mayores comunitarios, aunque autónomos y sin síntomas de demencia, pueden presentar sutiles cambios cognitivos que requieren detección temprana para prevenir trastornos neurodegenerativos.

Mystery, Thriller, Hybrid? The Riddle of the Sands by Erskine Childers in a Transmedial Narratological Perspective
Authors: Urbanowicz Michał
Published: January 2025

This narratological study of Erskine Childersʼs The Riddle of the Sands aims to determine whether that early 20th-century crime novel is actually a mystery work, a thriller, or a hybrid. For the purposes of evaluating its generic intricacies and affiliation, a simple yet comprehensive transmedial taxonomy of crime works, directly inspired by Charles Derryʼs film-restricted one, will be proposed. In the course of the analysis, generic links to non-crime genres will also be taken into account. The article expands upon some practical considerations discussed in its authorʼs doctoral thesis.
A Thousand and One Names of Polish Translation Enterprises in the Lower Silesia Region. Exploring the Polish REGON database
Authors: Kuźnik Anna
Published: January 2025

This article examines the formal characteristics and names of translation enterprises operating in the Lower Silesia region in 2022. The data on the enterprises were drawn from the Polish official register of economic entities, i.e. REGON database. The conceptual framework is built on three fields: (1) developments in the field of translation & interpreting studies (T&IS); (2) linguistic studies in onomastics on chrematonyms/ergonyms; (3) economic and legal conditions of running businesses in Poland. The results obtained in this study offer comprehensive insights into the economic situation of Polish translation enterprises and suggest main criteria for the future sample selection: in terms of their legal and economic strength, and in terms of translational profile consistency expressed through the lexicon used in the identifying segments of their names in order to designate their core business.
The Wind Knows the Answer. Ideological Transformations of Bob Dylan’s “Blowin’ in the Wind” in Polish
Authors: Antosz-Rekucki Jakub
Published: January 2025

“Blowin’ in the Wind” is considered to be one of  the lyrics most representative of Bob Dylan’s songwriting and is the one most frequently  translated into Polish among the American poet’s texts. This article analyses the ideological and poetological transformations of the original in its melic translations into Polish, demonstrating that its arguably key features (including engagement with social activism and use of Biblical allusions) underwent dramatic shifts to fit the constraints of target culture expectations and the needs and values of respective translators.

Authors: Sung Minsoo , Jung Yo Han , Lee Kyung-Yul
Published: January 2025

Brainstem infarction can be a critical condition, typically due to ischemic mechanisms such as large artery atherosclerosis, small vessel disease, or cardioembolic sources. In rare instances, infectious or inflammatory etiologies may lead to brainstem infarction, posing substantial diagnostic complexities. We report the case of a 74-year-old man presenting bilateral pontine infarctions secondary to clival osteomyelitis and an adjacent abscess, which was further complicated by a basilar artery pseudoaneurysm and subsequent subarachnoid hemorrhage. This case highlights the importance of considering uncommon infectious causes of brainstem infarction, especially in patients with intricate medical backgrounds and immunosuppression.

Published: January 2025

Background: Coronary artery calcification and carotid plaque are recognized indicators of atherosclerosis, both linked to elevated cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risks. This study investigates the association between coronary artery calcification and carotid plaque and examines key risk factors associated with carotid plaque presence.Methods: We enrolled 2,620 participants who underwent coronary artery calcium scoring via computed tomography and carotid ultrasound for health check-up from January 2017 to December 2022. Patient data, including age, sex, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, smoking history, body mass index, glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and lipoprotein(a), were collected. Logistic regression analyses were performed to explore the relationship between coronary artery calcification and carotid plaque, adjusting for major cerebrovascular risk factors.Results: Coronary artery calcification was present in 44.7% of participants, and carotid plaque was detected in 43.5%. Univariable analysis showed a significant association between coronary artery calcification and carotid plaque (unadjusted odds ratio: 4.393, p<0.001). In the multivariable model, which included age, sex, hypertension, dyslipidemia, glucose, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and coronary artery calcification presence, coronary artery calcification remained an independent predictor of carotid plaque (adjusted odds ratio: 2.327, p<0.001). The model’s area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.768.Conclusion: Our study demonstrates that coronary artery calcification is independently and significantly associated with carotid plaque in a health check-up population. Carotid imaging, such as carotid ultrasound, may be beneficial for early detection and management of carotid atherosclerosis in patients with coronary artery calcification.

Measurements of atmospheric absorption in transparency windows in the range of millimeter waves (MMW) have been carried out. A modification tipping-curve method is proposed that allows measuring atmospheric absorption, the average temperature of the atmosphere and separating the contributions of atmospheric moisture and the droplet fraction of clouds by single-wave measurements in the MMV range with clouds up to 2.5 points (without precipitation). The possibility of detecting and determining the water content of clouds at the zenith in real time is shown. The annual course of atmospheric moisture content and atmospheric absorption at a wavelength of 3 mm (2019 and 2020–2021) for the Karadag landfill. The previously obtained results of a comparative analysis of the Karadag landfill and the Suffa plateau are confirmed. The possibility of using the Karadag landfill for the installation of space communication systems and measurements of space sources in the MMV range is shown.
