People Prioritize Well-Being Over Morality in the Context of Self-Improvement
Authors: Sun Jessie , Berman Jonathan Zev
Published: February 2025

Most people are interested in improving themselves, but they are not particularly interested in becoming more moral. Why don’t people want to be more moral, and why do people prioritize improving certain traits? Three preregistered studies (NStudy 1 = 252, NStudy 2a = 303, NStudy 2b = 301), show that over and above the desire to address perceived deficiencies, people particularly seek to improve the traits that they expect will help them achieve their goals and increase their happiness. More morally relevant improvements were expected to improve these outcomes to a lesser extent, and were therefore deprioritized. Finally, beliefs about consequences for various well-being outcomes more strongly predicted change goals to the extent that people explicitly valued the respective outcomes. These results show that personal well-being is a central motivation for personality change, clarify the perceived tradeoffs between well-being and morality, and highlight individual differences in motivations for personality change.
Large Language Models for Variable Relationship Identification in Social Psychology: A Comparative Analysis with Human Experts
Authors: Ji Xinyu , Zhu Tingshao , Xue Exekiel , Chen Siyi
Published: February 2025

Empirical research, particularly in social psychology, centers on formulating testable hypotheses about variable relationships. While traditional approaches rely on theoretical and empirical insights, the process of integrating diverse perspectives and modeling complex social interactions is time-consuming, impacting the efficiency of hypothesis development. Thus, this study evaluates the capacity of large language models (LLMs; Qwen 2.5, Llama 3.1, and GPT-4) to identify variable relationships in social psychology, assessing their reasoning capabilities relative to both domain experts and non-domain experts. To this end, we selected 56 meta-analyses of social psychology published in 2024, from which we extracted 247 variable relationships. We tasked LLMs and human experts to infer variable relationships based on variable definitions and compared their inferences with relationships reported in the meta-analyses, while also examining the impact of task difficulty, self-reported confidence levels, and relationship type on model performance. Key findings indicate that while LLMs and domain experts demonstrated similar performance in identifying simple variable relationships (e.g., linear relationships and difference tests), both exhibited limitations when identifying more complex relationships, particularly moderating effects. Moreover, domain expertise significantly enhanced identification accuracy. Although a correlation was observed between model confidence and accuracy, it did not serve as a reliable predictor. Concurrently, increased task complexity consistently diminished the performance of all LLMs. Future research should focus on enhancing LLMs’ capacity to manage complex variable relationships, as well as exploring the efficacy of human-machine collaboration.
A structured dataset of the Federalist Society’s public engagements
Authors: Topaz Chad M.
Published: February 2025

Background: The Federalist Society, a leading conservative legal organization, has played a significant role in shaping the American judiciary for decades. Despite its influence, comprehensive empirical data on the organization remains scarce. We address this gap by systematically documenting 20,205 public events hosted by the Society from 1984 to 2024, with substantive coverage from 2007 onward.Methods: Following ethical best practices in data collection and ownership, we gathered event metadata—including titles, dates, locations, sponsors, topics, and speakers—via web scraping from the Federalist Society’s archives. The dataset is structured to facilitate analysis of event trends, co-speaking networks, and thematic shifts over time. To ensure data integrity, we performed validation, deduplication, and cleaning, resulting in a well-structured, high-quality dataset.Conclusions: This dataset provides an empirical foundation for examining the Federalist Society’s role in legal discourse. It is a resource for scholars in law, political science, sociology, gender studies, network science, and computational social science, enabling investigations into key themes of discussion, event participation patterns, demographic diversity, professional backgrounds, and more. Researchers can use it to study institutional influence, legal networks, and the evolution of conservative legal thought.
Not All ‘Predators’ Are the Same: Exploring the Spectrum of Questionable Journals

Published: February 2025

So-called ‘predatory’ publishing is often framed as an issue of unethical journal practices, but this perspective overlooks deeper structural problems in scholarly communication. The reliance on blacklists as a primary solution to identifying questionable journals fails to acknowledge the complexity of academic publishing and the broader systemic issues that contribute to unethical or controversial publishing practices. These include not only so-called ‘predatory’ journals but also concerns such as ‘special issue-ization’ and the rise of paper mills. Furthermore, the strategies used by emerging open-access mega-publishers increasingly resemble those employed by traditional and hybrid publishers, demonstrating that questionable practices are not confined to a single category of journals. This research in progress critically examines the characteristics of journals labeled as so-called ‘predatory’ and questions the effectiveness of static blacklists in scholarly assessment. Using a dataset of 2,755 journals from Predatory Reports, we systematically analyze their ISSN registration, subject classifications, accessibility, financial models, editorial transparency, and indexing status. While we recognize the limitations of blacklists, this dataset provides a basis for exploring broader patterns in academic publishing. Preliminary findings reveal that 24% of the journals became inaccessible after being listed, suggesting that some publishers shut down or rebrand to evade scrutiny. While ISSN registration is not mandatory, 13% of the journals in the dataset do not have one, which may indicate variations in registration practices. The geographical distribution of these journals is concentrated in India (31.45%), Switzerland (30.17%), and the United States (21.36%). This distribution highlights the global nature of these practices, spanning a range of publication models. The study also finds that 71% of these journals charge Article Processing Charges (APCs), while 23.7% fail to disclose APCs before submission, creating financial uncertainty for authors. Rather than indiscriminately covering all fields, many journals now focus on STEM disciplines. These findings underscore the need for more nuanced, criteria-based evaluation frameworks that account for the complexities of scholarly publishing, moving beyond binary categorizations of journals as ‘predatory’ or legitimate.
Bodies of intoxication. Psychoactives in Viking ritual practice
Authors: Eriksen Marianne Hem , Costello Brian
Published: February 2025

The drunk and frenzied Viking is a trope in line with associated stereotypes of blood-thirsty warriors and senseless violence. However, enough evidence remains to suggest that intoxication due to alcohol, and perhaps other psychoactive substances, was integral to many aspects of life in the Late Iron/Viking Ages. After all, apparently there is no other word for ‘sober’ in Old Norse than ódrukkin — ‘un-drunk’. Viking bodies were, in many ways, bodies of intoxication. One of the aspects of life that alcohol permeates is ritual practice.To the extent that this has been studied, the use of alcohol conventionally links to ideas of frenzied warriors and berserkers, or with feasting. Some research over the last few decades has related intoxicants to ritual practices, specifically that of the völva — the female ritual specialist (e.g. Price 2019). More broadly Germanic work has centered élite drinking culture and the role of the ‘lady with the mead-cup’ (Enright 1996) and the female leader of the household as a powerbroker, mediating power relationships within the warrior-band through pouring of alcohol. What Iron and Viking age studies have not contemplated in much detail so far, is the fundamentally material and embodied process of making and ingesting alcohol or other psychoactives by taking them into and incorporating them with the body, generating specific embodied reactions in specific settings. Drawing on seminal work in anthropology and philosophy, this paper centers alcohol as a form of material culture, providing tangible sets of sensory experiences, but ultimately destined to be destroyed through the process of ingestion.

Challenges in Achieving Successful Implementation NEP 2020: A Study of Himachal Pradesh
Authors: Kaur Harpreet
Published: February 2025

The formulation of India's National Education Policy (NEP) has evolved significantly since its inception in 1968, marking major educational milestones throughout the years. The first policy introduced in 1968 focused on making education compulsory up to the age of 14 years. The subsequent policy, adopted in 1986, led to substantial advancements in teacher education, introduced the National Curriculum Framework, and established the 10+2+3 education system. The NEP 2020, approved by the Union Cabinet on July 29, 2020, aims to improve affordability, accessibility, quality, equity, and accountability, ensuring lifelong learning for all. As a rapidly developing country with more than 1,168 universities and over 45,473 colleges, India’s vision with NEP 2020 is to build a knowledge-driven society. The policy emphasizes multidisciplinary education, digital literacy, communication skills, logical reasoning, problem-solving, and vocational education. Despite these goals, there are substantial challenges that need addressing in order to successfully implement the policy within the diverse educational landscape of India. This paper discusses the specific challenges faced in Himachal Pradesh regarding the policy’s structural, financial, pedagogical, and cultural implementation. It highlights the absence of a uniform implementation strategy and stresses the need to identify challenges at the grassroots level to fully realize the policy's transformative potential.
The Halal Positive List: Streamlining the Path to Certification
Authors: Alzeer Jawad , Abou Hadeed Khaled , Tufail Farhan
Published: February 2025

Halal certification, a crucial religious guideline for Muslims, has evolved beyond merely excluding meat and alcohol to encompass a wide range of products, including food, cosmetics, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. This expansion necessitates thorough examinations of ingredient sourcing and processing methods, making certification more complex and time-consuming. The Halal Positive List (HPL) was introduced to streamline this process and developed by Islamic scholars, food scientists, and industry experts. The HPL aims to simplify certification by providing a comprehensive list of pre-approved ingredients, saving time and resources while ensuring consistency and trust. However, challenges remain, particularly in achieving universal acceptance among certifying bodies and addressing the potential toxicity of single-molecule compounds. To enhance compliance, we propose the Halal-Tayyib Positive List (HTPL), which verifies the halal nature and the wholesomeness (tayyib) of ingredients, ensuring they are safe and ethically sourced. The framework categorises ingredients as non-critical, critical, or highly critical, streamlining the halal certification process with a straightforward, standardised approach.

Authors: Usraleli Usraleli , Ira Oktaviani  , Wiwiek Delvira  , Alkausyari Alkausyari
Published: February 2025

Problems that often occur in elementary school students related to growth and development include: frequent daydreaming, feelings of inferiority, frequent dependence on friends, difficulty adjusting to classmates, frequent complaints, jealousy, often alone, cheating, difficulty in capturing school lessons, making noise in class. Symptoms of this behavior are the result of misparenting in the family, differences in educational, socioeconomic backgrounds and deviations in the child's personality. From the school side, this problem arises because of the mistakes and weaknesses of teachers in treating children or the lack of teacher ability to deal with large numbers of students as found in government elementary schools such as only public elementary schools in Harjosari Village, Pekanbaru City. This community service activity is one of the efforts to realize the Tri Dharma of higher education. The purpose of this community service is to find out how the application of Therapeutic Group Therapy (TKT) for school-age children in grade III students. This community service activity is planned to be held at SD Negeri in Kelurahan, Kelurahan Delima, Tampan District, Pekanbaru from February to September 2023 (8 Months). This service activity is in the form of applying Therapeutic Group Therapy and Self Help Group (SHG) to students. The target participants are 36 students. The application of TKT to school children consists of 7 sessions. This activity began with the implementation of TKT session 1, namely stimulation of growth in the development of industrial aspects, session 2, namely stimulation of motor aspects, Session 3 is stimulation of cognitive and language aspects, session 4 is stimulation of emotional and personality aspects, session 5 is stimulation of moral and spiritual aspects, session 6 is stimulation of psychosocial aspects and session 7 is stimulation of all aspects from session 1 to session 6.

Duck is one type of waterfowl that has a higher nutritional content than chicken. The high nutritional value causes the duck meat to be easily damaged perishable food due to the high water content, the pH value is close to neutral and sufficient food is available for microbes. An alternative effort is needed for natural ingredients that are safe but can inhibit microbial growth in duck meat. One of the natural ingredients that can be used is star fruit (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) because it has a high acid content. This study aims to determine the difference in the duration of soaking Magelang duck meat with starfruit juice on the pH value, water holding capacity and water content. The research method was carried out using a completely randomized experimental design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 5 replications, and using a 40% concentration of starfruit juice with a soaking time of 0, 20, 40, 60 minutes. The data obtained were analyzed by analysis of variance and if different results were obtained, it was continued with the Duncan Multiple Rang Test (DMRT) further test. The results showed that the immersion time for 20-60 minutes can lower the pH value (5,83-4,67) and water content (67,05-63,68%), but had no effect on water holding capacity (48,47-54,63%). It is concluded that the immersion time of 60 minutes with starfruit juice with a concentration of 40% in can be used as a method of preserving Magelang duck breast meat.

One way to get rice that can adapt to drought stress is by providing drought tolerance in the germination phase through seed invigoration with the “Seed Priming” method. The study aimed to determine the level of adaptation and the response of growth and production of PEG-primed rice under drought-stress conditions.  The research was conducted in two stages. Phase I was in the form of rice seed priming in PEG 6000 solution arranged in a Randomized Group Design (RAK), consisting of 5 treatments, namely treatment without priming as control, PEG priming 0 gL-1, 50 gL-1, 100 gL-1, and 150 gL-1 with the length of seed priming for 36 hours. Phase II was a priming test of production levels in the field from the selected treatments in Phase I. The data were then statistically analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results showed that priming treatment using PEG 6000 for 36 hours with a concentration of 100 gL-1 gave the best results on vegetative growth (93% germination, seedling height 28, 27 cm, leaf length 19.11 cm, number of leaves 4 cm, and root length 4.08 cm). This concentration also gave the best results on generative growth (number of productive tillers 12, and grain weight 31.71 per clump), and increased the adaptation of paddy rice to drought stress conditions.
