Objective: This study aimed to understand the effectiveness of the Self-affirmation intervention for subclinical depression in Indian adults. Methods: We used the experimental research design. Using purposive sampling, 80 participants with subclinical depression were chosen. The participants were randomly allocated equally to experimental (intervention) and control (non-intervention) groups. Their depression was measured at 3 intervals: pre- and post-interventions and follow-up. We hypothesized that Self-affirmation intervention will show curative and preventive capacity for subclinical depression. The data were analyzed using the 3-way analysis of variance method. Results: The results revealed the significant curative power of the Self-affirmation intervention for subclinical depression of the participants in the experimental group when compared to the control group. The main effects of conditions (intervention: control and experimental) and treatment intervals (pre-, post-, and follow-up) as well as their interaction effect were significant. Mean subclinical depression scores during pre- and post-interventions and follow-up intervals confirmed the curative and prophylactic power of the intervention. Conclusion: The study findings indicated that the affirmation-based intervention carries both curative and preventive powers for subclinical depression, as reflected in the experimental group’s lower performance after the intervention and follow-up. The reverberating positive effects induced after Self-affirmation manipulation have remained active even after the intervention ended because of the underlying mechanisms of meaning, strengths, positive attributions, and beneficial social relationships that inhibit the relapse of subclinical depressive tendencies.

Objective: Polysubstance use as a severity index in individuals with substance abuse disorder is associated with various psychological, social, cultural, and genetic factors. This research aims to examine the predictive role of personality traits, personality functions, traumatic life events, and emotion-regulation difficulties in polysubstance use and the severity of dependence. Methods: A total of 300 subjects (75.2% male) with the mean age of 40.07 years and standard deviation of 12.26 were chosen via the available sampling method. The subjects included individuals abusing one substance (30.6%), a group abusing multiple substances (37.5%), and a nonclinical group (31.7%). The participants completed the questionnaires of short-form personality inventory based on The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition, levels of personality functioning scale, dysfunctional emotion regulation scale, and life events checklist. Results: The results of ranked regression and structural equation modeling indicated that the variables of personality traits (2.69), emotional regulation strategies (2.04), personality functioning (1.17), and stressful factors (1.65) had a significant role in predicting drug abuse. Conclusion: Personality affects all life dimensions. Emotion regulation strategies, by affecting maladaptive traits, especially negative affectivity and antagonism, as well as personality functions can predispose the person to polysubstance use.

Published: February 2023

Objective: Many studies have suggested a relationship between coherence and cognitive processes. This study aims to investigate this hypothesis by assessing the relationship between cognitive variables and coherence in the discourse of 2 groups of Persian-speaking young adults and the elderly. Methods: To evaluate our participants’ cognitive capabilities, we employed the cognitive tests of the mini-mental status test, the Stroop-color task, the digit symbol copy task, the clock-drawing task, and the backward digit span. On the other hand, the specific tasks to evaluate the discourse properties of the participants were the single task of talking and the dual task of talking while walking. Results: The results demonstrated that the dual task did not impact local coherence while global coherence was significantly disrupted in both tasks. However, the global coherence scale was more negatively affected in the dual task compared to the single task. While the relationship between global coherence and cognitive variables was significant in both tasks, the relationship between global coherence and working memory measures was only significant in the dual task. Furthermore, no relationship was observed between the scale of local coherence and either cognitive or working memory measures. Conclusion: Our findings corroborate previous findings that local and global coherence is manipulated by different cognitive processes and the maintenance of global coherence requires more demanding cognitive processes and is disrupted before local coherence occurs.

Educar ambientalmente: La multirreferencialidad como camino hacia la sustentabilidad
Authors: Villarruel Fuentes Manuel
Published: February 2023

Entender y operar la sustentabilidad dentro de la práctica educativa vinculada a la educación ambiental requiere de un acercamiento que supere el sentido lineal con el cual se ha abordado, para dar cabida al pensamiento complejo como alternativa modélica, concretada en el marco curricular y en el despliegue didáctico que la debe caracterizar. Desde esta perspectiva se planteó el objetivo de examinar las posibilidades curriculares de la sustentabilidad desde la multirreferencialidad, como vía de acceso al pensamiento complejo. Se recurrió el análisis, la interpretación conceptual y la operatividad de los preceptos teóricos sobre la transdisciplina y la transversalidad curricular, los referentes que mejor explican actualmente a la educación ambiental. Los resultados evidencian el sentido instrumental y cientificista de las propuestas curriculares actuales dentro del campo de la educación ambiental, encaminadas hacia la gestión descontextualizada de la sustentabilidad y enfocadas disciplinariamente, y muestran la pertinencia y validez de los enfoques transdisciplinarios, de índole multirreferencial. Se concluye que es necesario trascender el actual diseño curricular instruccional de la transdisciplina y el sentido utilitario de la transversalidad como vías de acceso a la sustentabilidad, para abordarla desde la multirreferencialidad, atendiendo el complejo entramado social que en cada institución educativa prevalece, asumida como comunidad.

Investigating biomedical research literature in the blogosphere: a case study of diabetes and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c)
Authors: Gruzd Anatoliy , Black Fiona A. , Le Thi Ngoc Yen , Amos Kathleen
Published: February 2023

Objective: The research investigated the relationship between biomedical literature and blogosphere discussions about diabetes in order to explore the role of Web 2.0 technologies in disseminating health information. Are blogs that cite biomedical literature perceived as more trustworthy in the blogosphere, as measured by their popularity and interconnections with other blogs? 

Methods: Web mining, social network analysis, and content analysis were used to analyze a large sample of blogs to determine how often biomedical literature is referenced in blogs on diabetes and how these blogs interconnect with others in the health blogosphere. 

    

Results: Approximately 10% of the 3,005 blogs analyzed cite at least 1 article from the dataset of 2,246 articles. The most influential blogs, as measured by in- links, are written by diabetes patients and tend not to cite biomedical literature. In general, blogs that do not cite biomedical literature tend not to link to blogs that do. 

Conclusions: There is a large communication gap between health professional and personal diabetes blogs. Personal blogs do not tend to link to blogs by health professionals. Diabetes patients may be turning to the blogosphere for reasons other than authoritative information. They may be seeking emotional support and exchange of personal stories. 
Enabling Community Through Social Media
Authors: Gruzd Anatoliy , Haythornthwaite Caroline
Published: February 2023

Background: Social network analysis provides a perspective and method for inquiring into the structures that comprise online groups and communities. Traces from interaction via social media provide the opportunity for understanding how a community is formed and maintained online. 

Objective: The paper aims to demonstrate how social network analysis provides a vocabulary and set of techniques for examining interaction patterns via social media. Using the case of the #hcsmca online discussion forum, this paper highlights what has been and can be gained by approaching online community from a social network perspective, as well as providing an inside look at the structure of the #hcsmca community. 

Methods: Social network analysis was used to examine structures in a 1-month sample of Twitter messages with the hashtag #hcsmca (3871 tweets, 486 unique posters), which is the tag associated with the social media–supported group Health Care Social Media Canada. Network connections were considered present if the individual was mentioned, replied to, or had a post retweeted. 

Results: Network analyses revealed patterns of interaction that characterized the community as comprising one component, with a set of core participants prominent in the network due to their connections with others. Analysis showed the social media health content providers were the most influential group based on in-degree centrality. However, there was no preferential attachment among people in the same professional group, indicating that the formation of connections among community members was not constrained by professional status. 

Conclusions: Network analysis and visualizations provide techniques and a vocabulary for understanding online interaction, as well as insights that can help in understanding what, and who, comprises and sustains a network, and whether community emerges from a network of online interactions. 
La traducció medieval d’Andreu Febrer en les traduccions catalanes de la «Divina comèdia» del nou-cents
Authors: Cunill-Sabatés Guillem
Published: February 2023

En aquest article s’aporten exemples textuals que mostren que els traductors de la Divina comèdia del segle xx —sobretot Antoni d’Espona, Antoni Rubió i Lluch i Josep Maria de Sagarra— van consultar la traducció medieval d’Andreu Febrer, editada per Vidal i de Valenciano el 1878. Ja se sabia que els inteŀlectuals de l’època van donar una importància cabdal a aquesta traducció a partir de la segona meitat del vuitcents i, especialment, amb motiu del sisè centenari de la mort de Dante Alighieri el 1921. Ara demostrem que a l’època no només va ser un text molt valorat pels estudiosos, sinó que també circulava entre els escriptors i traductors i que, a més, va influir en les seves respectives traduccions.

In this article, some textual examples are provided to show that the translators of the Divine
Comedy in Catalan throughout the 20th century —especially Antoni d’Espona, Antoni Rubió i Lluch, and Josep Maria de Sagarra— referred to Andreu Febrer’s medieval translation, which was edited by Vidal i de Valenciano in 1878. It is known that the scholars of that time gave a great importance to this translation from the second half of the 19th century onwards, and more precisely, when commemorating the sixth centenary of Dante Alighieri’s death in 1921. Here it is proved that not only was this text highly valued by scholars, but it was also read by writers and translators. This is known because the medieval translation influenced these modern Catalan translations.
Influence of Nitric oxide donor nanoencapsulation on Dyckia excelsa Lema (Bromeliaceae) germination
Authors: Monteiro Kauê Alexandre , Carlo Baudraz Paula Jean , Danilo Shimizu Gabriel , Aparecido Ribeiro Júnior Walter , Roldi Guariz Hugo , Tadeu Faria Ricardo
Published: February 2023

Bromeliads are used in landscaping due to the beauty of their leaves and flowers. The use of plant regulators such as nitric oxide (NO) promotes the stimulus of germination and it has been a way out to enhance production and reduce the search for plants in nature and nanoencapsulation aims to optimize its effect. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of using free and nanoencapsulated NO donor on the germination of D. excelsa. The treatments consisted of soaking the seeds for 5 minutes with s-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), chitosan/sodium tripolyphosphate nanoparticles containing GSNO (NP CS/TPP-GSNO) and empty (NP CS/TPP) at doses: 15 mM and 20 mM. The control consisted of imbibition in distilled water. For each treatment, 4 replications of 50 seeds were used. The following variables were evaluated: percentage of germination (GER), first germination count (FGC), germination speed index (GSI), average germination time (AGT) in addition to the length (SL) and seedling dry weight (SDW). To characterize the seeds, water content and viability were evaluated. D. excelsa seeds had 9.9% water content and 64% viability. For GER, treatments with GSNO ranged from 43 to 60%. The application of GSNO stimulated the germination process of D. excelsa and the nanoencapsulation did not cause any difference in the results compared to the free GSNO. It was concluded that the application of 15 or 20 mM of the GSNO donor is recommended for stored seeds of D. excelsa.
Low Health Literacy (LHL): A Conniving Opponent of Patient Treatment Compliance
Authors: Abdul Kader Mohiuddin
Published: February 2023

In order to access, comprehend, and use information to make decisions about their health, people must possess certain personal traits and social resources, which are referred to as health literacy. Patients' ability to engage in complex disease management and self-care is strongly related to their level of health literacy. It can help us stay healthy by preventing illness and effectively managing existing illnesses. Personal health literacy refers to a person's ability to locate, comprehend, and apply information and services to support health-related decisions and actions for themselves and others. The World Health Organization recommends health literacy as a tool for achieving several key targets outlined in the Sustainable Development Goals. Low health literacy (LHL) is most commonly associated with mature patients with chronic health conditions who have limited education and are not necessarily from a lower income group. Furthermore, being literate in general does not imply being literate in health.
GDPx: An Application Independent Pruning Technique to Reduce Computation Cost of Max-Product Belief Propagation Algorithm
Authors: Khan Md Mosaddek , Trung N V Q
Published: February 2023

The Max-Product belief propagation algorithm has been widely used to process constraints associated with optimization problems in a broad range of application domains such as information theory, multi-agent systems, image processing, etc. The constraint optimization of a given problem is typically accomplished by performing inference with the use of a message passing process. During the process, the Max-Product algorithm performs repetitive maximization operation, which has been considered as one of the main reasons the algorithm can be computationally expensive. In more detail, scalability becomes a challenge when Max-Product has to deal with constraint functions with high arity and/or variables with a large domain size. In either case, the ensuing exponential growth of search space can make the maximization operator of the algorithm computationally infeasible in practice. In effect, it is frequently observed that the output of an algorithm becomes obsolete or unusable as the optimization process takes too long. Speciﬁcally, the issue of an algorithm taking too long to complete its internal inference process becomes more severe and prevalent as the size of the problem increases. As a result, the practical scalability of such algorithms is constrained. However, it is challenging to maintain the solution quality while reducing the computation cost of the algorithm. This is important because success in doing so will eventually reduce the algorithm’s overall completion time without compromising on the quality of its solution. To address this issue, we develop a generic pruning technique that enables the maximization operator of the Max-Product algorithm to operate on a signiﬁcantly reduced search space of at least around 85% or more (i.e. empirical observation). Additionally, we demonstrate theoretically that the pruned search space obtained through our approach has no negative impact on the algorithm’s outcome. Finally, further empirical evidence notably suggests that our proposed approach brings down 50% to around 99% of the time required to complete a single maximization operation.

Rainfall threshold estimation empirically to forecast rainfall-induced landslide events provides crucial information to reduce landslide impact. The landslide events triggered by rainfall are common in Cox's Bazar district, especially during the monsoon season. Geological settings and climatic conditions make this area more landslide-prone leading to huge losses of lives and property. Establishing an effective early warning system based on a rainfall threshold value has become a top priority to save people's lives, the economy, and the environment. We have employed three empirical approaches to estimate rainfall thresholds. Intensity-Duration, Event-Duration, and Antecedent Rainfall thresholds are the most conventional rainfall methods to identify the lowest amount of rainfall that triggers landslide. The Intensity-Duration (ID) and Event-Duration (ED) rainfall threshold equations are calculated using a simple power-law curve. For 5% exceedance probability level ID defined as: T5: I = 3.63 D-0.1313 & ED as T5: E = 3.63 D0.8687. Similarly, for 1% exceedance probability level ID defined as: T1: I= 2.78 D-0.1313 & T1: E = 2.78 D0.8687 for ED. Both 1% and 5% rainfall threshold equations are the minimum rainfall threshold equations. Since the 5% exceedance probability threshold line delineates the lower end of all the observed data points for landslide events, it is considered the minimum threshold line for Cox's Bazar. According to the 5% exceedance probability level threshold equation, mean intensity of 2.39 mmh-1 or 57.4 mm cumulated rainfall in 24 hours is required to initiate a landslide event. Whereas, for longer duration events such as 120h, rainfall intensity of 1.93 mmh-1 or continuous rainfall of 232 mm appears to be sufficient in landslide initiation. There is a less than 5% chance of a landslide below this threshold limit. In the context of 3-day and 5-day antecedent rainfall thresholds, we found that a minimum of 130 mm in 72 h (3-day) and 210 mm in 120 h (5-day) could initiate a landslide event. We have compared our thresholds with a few global and local rainfall threshold estimates.

Interval prediction of order statistics and record values using concomitants of order statistics and record values for Morgenstern family of distributions
Authors: Muraleedharan Laji , Chacko Manoj
Published: February 2023

In this paper, we discuss the problem of predicting intervals for future order statistics and k-record values based on observed concomitants of order statistics and observed concomitants of k-record values arising from a Morgenstern family of distributions. The coverage probabilities obtained are accurate and independent of the parent distribution. A real data set is also considered to exemplify the proposed methodologies developed in this paper.
