Deteksi Gen SLC30A8 pada Sampel Darah Penderita Diabetes Melitus Tipe 2 Dengan Metode Polymerase Chain Reaction
Authors: Auliantika Dinda Helsa , Wahyudi Didik
Published: October 2024

Background:  The SLC30A8 gene is a zinc efflux transporter associated with insulin secretion expressed by the pancreas. The SLC30A8 gene causes abnormalities in insulin synthesis, maturation & secretion as well as abnormalities in the body's effectiveness in responding to glucose metabolism. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a DNA amplification method that can be used to detect the presence of the SLC30A8 gene in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.
Methods: This study used a descriptive research method conducted at the Molecular Biology Laboratory of Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu Kesehatan Nasional. The sampling technique in this study used a total sampling technique on 25 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients who were members of the Prolanis Diabetes Mellitus Puskesmas Bulu Sukoharjo, Central Java. The detection of the SLC30A8 gene went through several stages, namely DNA isolation, qualitative testing of DNA isolates, quantitative testing of DNA isolates and PCR
Results: The results showed the presence of the SLC30A8 gene in all blood samples from type 2 diabetes mellitus patients using the PCR method. The primer used with forward primer 5'-GGACGAAAGAGTTCCCATAGCG-3' and reverse primer 5'- ATAGCAGCATGTTTTGAAGGTGGC-3' attaches specifically to chromosome 8 with a product length of 429 bp.
Conclusion:  All blood samples of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients detected the SLC30A8 gene

On Quasi-Proper Names in Japanese
A reply to A. Capone’s “On quasi-proper names”
Authors: Mizuta Yoko
Published: October 2024

In reply to Alessandro Capone’s paper entitled “On quasi-proper names”, I provide relevant data in Japanese and discuss the properties and status of quasi-names from a cross-linguistic perspective. A close look at the properties of Japanese quasi-names indicates that they are a special case of yobina (lit. ‘call name’), a subcategory of nicknames in Japanese which are used both to refer to and to call someone. Specifically, they are like stage names systematically given to older family members. The yobina status of quasi-names appear to hold cross-linguistically, while the peculiarity within the yobina category has general and language-specific elements.
Comparing Models on the Optionality of Complementizer Omission
A Quantitative Computational study on German and Italo-Romance
Authors: Samo Giuseppe , Isolani Elena
Published: October 2024

Different studies in generative grammar have tried to explain the optionality with respect to the complementizer omission across languages and across structures. Specifically, the complementizer omission in declarative embedded contexts introduced by the so-called bridge verbs. In this paper, we test two models postulating different derivations and marking different predictions to the nature of the complementizer omission: one model stipulates the deletion of the complementizer (complementizer deletion), whereas the second model focuses on the verbal elements of the embedded clause (complementizer rise, when present). To reach our goal, we explore large-scale datasets (syntactically annotated treebanks of German, Italian and Old Florentine) and adopt simple computational models to compare and test the models under investigation. Our results suggest that the predictions of the complementizer deletion hypotheses are confirmed by German data, while those of the complementizer rise model are partially corroborated by Italian data. We consider this study as a blueprint for finer-grained research.
Students’ Perception of Teaching English Linguistics at University Level. A case study
Authors: Turci Monica
Published: October 2024

This paper presents a case study on the teaching of a 30-hour module of English Linguistics for two courses in the first-cycle degree programme in Modern Cultures and Languages. Data gathered through students’ evaluation forms have been contradictory: the module scored high as far as students’ satisfaction was concerned but it scored low regarding interest. This paper shows how students’ feedback has helped us introduce changes. These are illustrated in the main part of this paper. They engage with pedagogical knowledge, methodologies and practices, as well as linguistic approaches specifically chosen to unpack the potential of the content of the module, improving students’ language awareness and language skills.

Authors: Nedyalkov Petar , Qnkova-Nikolova Anastasiq , Kolev Nikolay , Vlahova-Vangelova Desislava
Published: October 2024

The aim of this study was to explore the pH, HMF, antioxidant activity, sensory properties and color of four meads with added beehive products (C-control; MPP – with added 1% extract of propolis; MPO – with addition of 1% pollen and MBB with addition of 1% bee bread). Compared to C, the use of propolis, pollen and bee bread significantly decrease pH of the meads. Control mead was light in color. HMF values were below 40 mg/kg in all tested samples according to Bulgarian legislation. DPPH values in MBB and MPO was 1.8 and 2 times higher compared to C. ABTS increase 1.17 and 1.32 times after 1% bee bread and pollen addition. MPP mead had highest values of antioxidant activity (DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, CUPRAC) TPC, phenolic acids and flavonoid content. The ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and cupric reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) decrease in the following order: MPP > MPO > MBB > C. According to intensity of smell, balance and acidity of taste and overall experience the higher scores were awarded to MBB and MPO meads. The lowest sensory scores for taste and smell were awarded to MPP mead due to strong intrusive taste of propolis identical to medicine.
Effect of cold and frozen storage duration on technological properties and chemical composition of Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) meat
Authors: Zhelyazkov Georgi , Stratev Deyan , Strateva Mariyana , Stefanov Miroslav
Published: October 2024

The effects of 6-day cold (0-4℃) storage and frozen storage (-18℃) for 3-, 6-, 9- and 12 months on technological properties, chemical composition and fatty acid profile of meat from Mediterranean mussel or Black mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) were investigated. The black mussel meat technological properties (water holding capacity /WHC/, cooking and roasting losses) and meat moisture content demonstrated the highest values in fresh samples due to the greater amount of sea water in them, yet this should not be considered as a disadvantage. The lower values of these parameters after 6-day cold storage and 3-, 6-, 9- and 12-month frozen storage were attributed from dehydration of black mussel tissue. The greater protein content detected during the cold and frozen storage was also due to water loss from mussel meat. The amount of lipids, ash content and fatty acid profile of black mussel meat were not changed during the tested periods of cold and frozen storage. The PUFA/SFA ratios showed that fresh mussels, and mussels cold-stored for 6-days and frozen for 3-, 6-, 9- and 12-months were an excellent source of PUFA and n-3 for humans.
İki Yozlaşma Romanı: Ankara ve Hayvan Çiftliği’ni Karşılaştırmalı Okumak
Authors: Kelebek Aykut Nasip
Published: October 2024

Cumhuriyet Dönemi Türk edebiyatı yazarlarından Yakup Kadri Karaosmanoğlu’nun Ankara romanı, Milli Mücadele döneminde idealist ve milliyetçi yaklaşımlara sahip kişilerin Cumhuriyet’in ilanından sonra çarpık bir Batılılaşma; İngiliz yazar George Orwell’ın Hayvan Çiftliği romanı ise çiftlik sahibi insanlara karşı ayaklanıp yönetimi ele geçiren domuzların adım adım kendi prensiplerini hiçe sayarak insanlaşma süreçlerini işlemektedir. Biri Türk edebiyatına diğeri İngiliz edebiyatına ait olan ve aralarında etki ilişkisi kurulması mümkün görünmeyen bu iki roman, apayrı toplum yahut toplulukların yozlaşma aşamalarını birbirine çok benzer kalıplarla ortaya koymakta ve kişi ve zümrelerin kendi kimliklerini yitirme hikayelerine benzer yaklaşımlarla eleştiriler getirmektedir. Bu çalışmada Ankara ile Hayvan Çiftliği’nin hangi açılardan birbirine benzediği ortaya konacak, görünüşte bambaşka sorunları ele aldığı düşünülebilecek bu iki farklı edebi eserin derin yapıda hangi açılardan birbirlerine yaklaştığı ve siyasi rejim yahut karar vericileri hedef alırken hangi ortak argümanları geliştirdiği gösterilecektir. Hem Ankara hem Hayvan Çiftliği yayımlandıkları dönemin siyasi atmosferinden bağımsız incelenmesi mümkün olmayan, çünkü zaten doğrudan mevcut siyasete odaklanan romanlardır; bu nedenle de Ankara bahsinde Türkiye Cumhuriyeti’nin ilk yıllarına, Hayvan Çiftliği bahsinde Sovyet Sosyalist Cumhuriyetler Birliği ve İngiltere’nin tarihlerine ilişkin göndermelerde bulunulacaktır.

Published: October 2024

Este trabajo recoge los resultados de una intervención arqueológica realizada con motivo de la rehabilitación y puesta en valor del Castillo de Terrinches (Ciudad Real). La presentación de los resultados del estudio referido a los aspectos cronológicos-formales del castillo es algo necesario, dadas las informaciones poco contrastadas difundidas acerca del tema. La fundación del castillo ha venido planteando toda una serie de dudas, centrándose el debate científico en si se trata de una fundación “ex novo” del siglo XIII o bien se trata de una construcción militar existente ya en época islámica. Esta intervención ha permitido confirmar su erección por parte de la Orden Militar de Santiago y su indudable función feudal para con su entorno más inmediato.

La cárcel de Villanueva de los Infantes y su reforma en el siglo XIX
Authors: Moya García Concepción
Published: October 2024

El pensamiento ilustrado respecto al castigo supuso una revolución en la arquitectura carcelaria a lo largo del siglo XIX. La difícil situación económica de España y la lenta evolución de las ideas provocaron una escasez de construcciones de nueva planta, siendo lo más habitual la adaptación de edificios ya construidos. Un ejemplo de ello fue la cárcel de Villanueva de los Infantes. Edificada durante el Antiguo Régimen, no se pudo construir un nuevo edificio, pero sí se realizó una reforma que la convirtió en un espacio habitable.

Existential crisis in the novels “The Human Sea” and “Struggle in the Desert” by Vagif Sultanli
Authors: Zeynalli Gunel Fazil
Published: October 2024

The article examines the evolution of the internal conflict typical of an existential crisis exhibited by the characters in the novels “The Human Sea” and “Struggle in the Desert” by the renowned writer and literary critic Vagif Sultanli. It is shown that a single wrong decision or a momentary choice of the characters leads to a loss of meaning in life, to feelings of “uselessness”, hopelessness, and loneliness. The aim of the study is to describe the process of a person’s alienation from the existing world, to show the transformation of an individual isolated from society into an asocial being, and to trace the evolution of the feeling of uncertainty about one’s future and loss of meaning in life as a cause of an existential crisis. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that Vagif Sultanli’s novels “The Human Sea” and “Struggle in the Desert” are explored for the first time in terms of analyzing the idea of human freedom of choice and responsibility for one’s choice. Reflections on their fate and purpose create an internal conflict in the soul of the heroes, which allows for the analysis of the writer’s novels in the context of an existential crisis. As a result of the study, it was found that the existential crisis in the works “The Human Sea” and “Struggle in the Desert” by Vagif Sultanli stems from the physical and emotional exhaustion of the heroes of the novels from endless reflections on the meaninglessness of life, from fear and uncertainty about the future.

Effect of Propolis Applied to Goat Kids at Weaning Period on Heat Shock Protein Genes
Authors: Ekren Aşıcı Gamze Sevri , Çağlı Alkan , Çoğan Hasan , Kargın Kıral Funda , Yılmaz Murat
Published: October 2024

In recent years, studies on the use of natural and organic additives have gained importance in goat breeding in order to prevent offspring losses and to encourage their growth and development by limiting the use of antibiotics. Especially the weaning period is a stressful period for kids and negative effects such as weight loss, increased susceptibility to viral and bacterial infections may be observed as a result of decreased nutrient intake and utilisation during this period. Considering these disadvantages that occur during the weaning period, it was thought that propolis would increase the potential to protect the health and welfare of kids during the weaning period due to its immunomodulatory, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects. Therefore, we aimed to examine the expression levels of HSP27, HSP60, and HSP70 molecular chaperones that modulate the cellular stress response, which partially express the effects of propolis on weaning stress. Saanen kids were divided into propolis treated (n=10) and control (no propolis treatment; n=10) groups. The propolis-treated group received 0.4 cc propolis once a day for two weeks after weaning. Expression levels were calculated by 2-ΔΔCt using the Pfaffl method and statistical significance levels were determined by Student t test. Blood samples were taken on the day of weaning and the following day to determine the effect of weaning stress on HSP27, HSP60, and HSP70 expression levels. The effect of propolis on weaning stress was examined in samples taken after two weeks of propolis treatment. The expression levels of HSP27 and HSP60 increased by approximately 2-fold during weaning stress, while HSP70 increased by 3.35-fold. When 0.4 cc propolis was applied to kids under weaning stress, a statistically significant downregulation of HSP27 level 1.08-fold, HSP60 level 1.56-fold, and HSP70 level 2.12-fold was obtained at the end of 2 weeks compared to the control group. Our study showed that propolis treatment decreased stress protein levels during weaning stress.

Published: October 2024

Günümüzde at yetiştiriciliğinde, parazitlerde antelmentik ilaçlara karşı gelişen direncin artması, at sağlığı ve antiparaziter amaçla yapılan tedavilerde ciddi sorunlar oluşturabilmektedir. Bu çalışma, atların sindirim sistemi helmintlerinden olan Strongylus spp. etkenlerine karşı, ivermektin ve praziquantelin etki düzeylerinin belirlenmesi ve bu maddelere karşı gelişebilecek bir antelmentik direnç durumunun tespit edilmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Şanlıurfa, Mersin ve Adana illerinde, safkan İngiliz atı yetiştiriciliğinin yapıldığı 30 çiftlikten, farklı yaşlarda bulunan 60 attan, dışkı örnekleri alındı ve Strongylidae yumurtaları yönünden McMaster tekniği ile incelendi. Örneklerin 20’sinde (%33,33) Strongylidae etkenlerinin yumurtalarının varlığı belirlendi. Strongylidae ile enfekte oldukları belirlenen atlara, ticari ivermektin ve praziquantel kombinasyonu sırasıyla 0,2 ve 1,5 mg/kg dozlarda oral yoldan uygulandı. Uygulamadan sonraki 14. gün, atlardan ikinci kez dışkı örnekleri alındı ve yapılan tüm analizler tekrarlandı. Kullanılan ilaç kombinasyonunun, Strongylidae etkenlerine karşı %100 oranında etkili olduğu, eş zamanlı olarak yapılan Real-Time PCR analiz sonuçlarının hem tedavi öncesi hem de sonrasında, konvansiyonel analiz sonuçları ile bire bir uyumlu olduğu belirlendi.
Sonuç olarak, safkan İngiliz atlarında belirlenen Strongylidae enfeksiyonlarında, ivermektin ve praziquantel kombinasyonu uygulamasının ardından antelmentik direnç durumu kaydedilmedi. Bununla birlikte, antelmentik ilaç direncinin oluşma olasılığı göz önünde bulundurularak, antiparaziter ilaç kullanımı konusunda daha dikkatli olunması gerektiği düşünülmektedir.

Charting the unknown: Sex differences in spatial exploration across the lifespan
Authors: Zheng Luming , Genç Zehra Nur , Baumann Valentin , van der Ham Ineke , Schomaker Judith
Published: October 2024

Previous work has suggested that males and females adopt different exploration styles, with females often taking a more secure, or cautious exploration approach. In the current study, females (n = 206) and males (n = 218) aged 7-77 years explored a 3D virtual environment. First, we computed a series of exploration measures that are commonly used in the animal literature (including roaming entropy, distance traveled, shape of exploration and exploratory efficiency). Taking a fine-grained approach, based on a hierarchical cluster analysis we identified three distinct measures of exploration: 1. Exploratory activity; 2. Exploratory efficiency; 3. Shape of exploration. We investigated whether these distinct aspects capture individual differences – between sexes and across the lifespan – in exploration behavior. Males were found to explore more than females, as evidenced by higher exploratory activity and a more complex shape of exploration. Interestingly, however, females were found to explore more efficiently than males. These findings suggest that even though women show more caution when exploring an unknown environment, they are more efficient in charting it. Our novel fine-grained exploratory behavior analyses further suggested that older individuals had a simpler exploration shape – as defined by lower sinuosity/tortuosity in their path – than younger individuals, while other exploration measures were not affected by age. The current novel findings thus suggest that specific characteristics of exploration behavior depend on individual differences, including sex and age. As exploration behavior is altered in several neuropsychiatric disorders this suggests that taking into account such differences in exploratory styles is crucial.
Practical guidelines for DFIT interpretation using the ‘compliance method’ procedure from URTeC-2019-123

Published: October 2024

This article provides practical tips for interpreting Diagnostic Fracture Injection Tests (DFITs) using the ‘compliance method’ procedure initially developed by McClure et al. (2016) and refined in the paper URTeC-2019-123, which summarized results from a joint industry study (McClure et al., 2019). The results from McClure et al. (2016) demonstrated that common practices for stress estimation often underestimate the true magnitude of the minimum principal stress, a finding that has been subsequently been confirmed by direct in-situ measurements and laboratory experiments (Dutler et al., 2020; Bröker and Ma, 2022; Guglielmi et al., 2023; Ye and Ghassemi et al., 2023), as well as in the field measurements reviewed by McClure et al. (2016). URTeC-2019-123 provides a step-by-step process for estimating stress, permeability, and pore pressure. It also discusses how to handle topics such as near-wellbore tortuosity and deviation from Carter leakoff. However, the paper primarily focuses on interpreting ‘ideal’ data – tests that conform to the behavior seen in ‘typical’ DFIT numerical simulations. McClure et al. (2022) performed a statistical review of 62 field DFITs from around North America and observed significant deviation from ideality in many of the tests. For example, an “S” shaped dP/dG curve, which is used for estimating stress, is not seen in a significant percentage of DFITs. For practical purposes, we need guidelines for interpreting DFITs when ideal conditions are not met. This document provides recommendations based on the authors’ experience analyzing a large number of DFITs across North and South America. Also, this document provides a somewhat more streamlined and unambiguous set of recommendations, compared with the original reference, McClure et al. (2019).
A Comprehensive Analysis of Survey Papers on Large Language Models
Authors: Thapa Magar Upama
Published: October 2024

As Large Language Models (LLMs) have become more popular in recent years, the number of survey papers in this field has greatly increased. This large amount of research can be difficult for new researchers to navigate. In this paper, I analyze the metadata of these LLM survey papers, looking at publication trends and grouping them by research focus areas. I build a feature matrix using simple methods like TFIDF vectorization and one-hot encoding. I also use a logistic regression model to predict the category of each paper based on its metadata. To address class imbalance in the data, I apply class weighting to improve performance for less common categories. The results show an improvement in accuracy, from 43% to 47%, showing that class weighting helps. This paper provides insights into research trends in the LLM field and helps new researchers explore the literature and find areas for future work.
Automated Classification and Trend Analysis of Large Language Model Survey Papers Using Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing Techniques
Authors: Tania Meherunnesa
Published: October 2024

This study investigates the application of machine learning (ML) and natural language processing (NLP) techniques to classify academic survey papers into predefined taxonomy categories. The dataset, consisting of paper titles, summaries, release dates, taxonomy labels, and categories, was analyzed to uncover trends and patterns in the publication of research papers. Exploratory data analysis (EDA) revealed important insights through visualizations, such as publication trends over time, the distribution of taxonomy categories, and the most common terms used in paper summaries. Key NLP techniques, including Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF), were employed to transform the textual data into numerical features, while one-hot encoding was applied to the categorical data. A Random Forest Classifier was trained on the extracted feature matrix to predict the taxonomy category of each paper. The model achieved promising accuracy, effectively capturing patterns in the dataset. The study also identified areas for future improvement, including addressing class imbalance and exploring more sophisticated models. These findings demonstrate the potential of ML and NLP for automating the classification of academic papers, providing a scalable solution for managing large collections of research literature while offering insights into publication dynamics and trends.
Ethical and Epistemic Costs of a Lack of Geographical and Cultural Diversity in Developmental Science

Published: October 2024

Increasing geographical and cultural diversity in research participation has been a key priority for psychological researchers. In this article, we track changes in participant diversity in developmental science over the past decade. These analyses reveal surprisingly modest shifts in global diversity of research participants over time, calling into question the generalizability of our empirical foundation. We provide examples from the study of early child development of the significant epistemic and ethical costs of a lack of geographical and cultural diversity to demonstrate why greater diversification is essential to a generalizable science of human development. We also discuss strategies for diversification that could be implemented throughout the research ecosystem in the service of a culturally anchored, generalizable, and replicable science.
Cancelled or Renewed?

Published: October 2024

In an increasingly digital world, people’s past wrongdoings sometimes re-emerge publiclyonline, eliciting renewed moral condemnation. What factors do observers consider in judgmentsof redemption or condemnation? We expected greater redemption following evidence ofpersonal growth (vs no growth), and especially when growth was private (vs public). We alsoexpected Democrats (vs Republicans) to be less forgiving of past racism (Studies 1 & 2)regardless of growth. In three experiments (N = 3,607), observers were more forgiving toward atransgressor when they had demonstrated personal growth since the original incident (i.e.,attending classes on the issue, participating in nonprofits, donating money). This effect wasobserved when the transgressor had posted racist comments online in the past (Studies 1 & 2) orhad been arrested for drunk driving (Study 3). Democrats were overall less forgiving thanRepublicans. Unexpectedly, observers responded similarly to public and to private growth.
When Posing in Portraits Turns Cheeky: A Systematic Literature Review of the Left-Cheek Bias - Poster
Authors: van Jole Oda , Westerhausen René
Published: October 2024

Since it was first noticed in the 1970s, studies have continued to observe that various types of portraits are often produced with the left side of the face protruding more than the right side of the face. This pose orientation is often preferred by the viewer and the displayed cheek appears to influence the viewer’s perceptions of the portrayed individual. This phenomenon has become known as the left-cheek bias. Based on the notion that the right hemisphere both innervates the left hemiface and is considered dominant in emotion processing, a popular explanation for the left-cheek bias is that such a posing orientation better displays emotional qualities. Given societal stereotypes associating women with emotional expressiveness, it has been suggested that this bias is more prevalent in portraits of women. The aim of this systematic review is to provide an overview of the literature on the left-cheek bias, both in terms of its occurrence, its effect on the viewers, and potential gender effects. A systematic literature search was conducted in seven electronic databases: PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science, EBSCO Discovery Service, PsychInfo, MEDLINE, and Embase. Two independent raters assessed the resulting 268 articles, ultimately including 65 articles comprising 98 studies. These studies were first categorised by whether they assessed pose orientation in a set of stimuli (DV-group; k = 64) or how pose orientation affected an outcome measure (IV-group; k = 34). The present poster primarily focuses on the DV-group, analysing the outcomes of studies across various DV-categories with respect to pose orientation. Furthermore, the poster includes a review of studies examining gender differences in posing bias, along with their conclusions.

Liberals and conservatives both express political animosity and favouritism. However, less is known about whether the same or different factors contribute to this phenomenon among liberals and conservatives. We test three different relationships that could emerge between cognitive ability and cognitive reflection, and political group-based attitudes. Analyzing two nationally representative surveys of US Americans (N= 9,035) containing a measure of cognitive ability, we find evidence that compared to people lower in cognitive ability, people higher in cognitive ability express more animosity towards ideologically discordant groups, and more favouritism towards ideologically concordant groups. This pattern was particularly pronounced among liberals. In a registered report study, we then test whether the same is true of cognitive reflection in another large dataset (N = 3,498). In contrast to cognitive ability, we find no relationship between cognitive reflection and political animosity and favouritism. Together, these studies provide a comprehensive test of how cognitive ability and cognitive reflection are related to political animosity and favouritism for liberals and conservatives in the United States.
A theory of memory for items and associations
Authors: Jin Beige , Halpern David , Kahana Michael J.
Published: October 2024

We present a retrieved-context theory of memory for items, associations, and theirinteraction (CMR-IA). Our theory assumes an evolving representation of temporal context that binds to items and associations, allowing the rememberer to make judgments based on the occurrence of a mnemonic target within a particular context. In addition to the assumptions inherited from prior retrieved-context theories, CMR-IA assumes a conjunctive (Gestalt) representation for paired associates, increased attention to rare items, and variable thresholds for recognition decisions. We apply CMR-IA to key findings concerning recognition of items and associations, including effects of recency, similarity, receiver-operating characteristic curves, word frequency, differential forgettings of items and associations, and contiguity effects for successive probes. We also apply CMR-IA to cued recall phenomena, including serial position effects, distribution of correct responses and errors, contiguity effects, associative symmetry, and similarity effects. Finally, we ask whether CMR-IA can account for the dependencies between successive tests of item and associative memory. We show that combining a Gestalt associative mechanism with retrieved-context theory provides a good account for many empirical phenomena concerning item and associative memory. The analysis of successive memory tests highlights the important role of output encoding in our model.
A conceptual and empirical framework for the study of online cultural evolution
Authors: Nickl Pietro , Moussaid Mehdi
Published: October 2024

More and more cultural content is being produced and transmitted online while increasing competition for limited attention likely intensifies existing selective pressures on content. Therefore, it becomes important to understand the driving forces of cultural evolution in this environment. In this paper, we present an agent-based model to capture cultural transmission dynamics online, considering characteristics of digital online environments (low-cost production, high-fidelity transmission, high individual reach) that set them apart from offline scenarios. As a case study, we report preliminary findings of a rise in clickbait style in titles across online platforms, and use our model to explain which mechanisms could give rise to this pattern. Generally, the model serves to formulate predictions against which to compare observational data and we show how online trends can be interpreted in terms of cultural evolution. This work outlines an interdisciplinary research agenda for studying and understanding cultural evolution online, with possible implications for regulating online content and designing digital environments.
