The Theory of "Involuntary" Contracts: The Judicial Rewriting of Unreasonable Covenants Not to Compete
Authors: Damren Samuel C.
Published: January 2023

The decisions that are the focus of this article, however, involve situations in which the courts do not simply refuse to enforce portions, or the entirety of the parties' covenant not to compete, but instead "rewrite" the "unreasonable" terms of the parties' restrictive covenant to bring them within the scope of "reasonableness," and hence, form enforceable contracts. From the perspective of the will theory of contracts, the substantial and growing minority of jurisdictions that permit courts to "rewrite" restrictive covenants in this fashion have seemingly created a new theory of contractual obligation, which I will refer to as "the theory of involuntary contracts." The focus of the analysis undertaken in Part I of this article is the source of the judiciary's authority to "rewrite" the terms of mutual agreements to contradict the parties' actual "will." Part II of this article contrasts "the theory of involuntary contracts" with the traditional judicial function. Part III describes the practical appeal of "the theory of involuntary contracts," and Part IV proposes a theoretical justification of the re- writing of restrictive covenants that relies not upon contract law, but instead upon principles borrowed from the law of restitution.

From Marbury v. Madison to Bush v. Gore: 200 Years of Judicial Review in the United States
Authors: Alton Stephen R.
Published: January 2023

Judicial Review is the foundation of the rule of law in the United States. In this Lecture, the author examines the history and theory of judicial review in the United States as well as certain aspects of the development of the doctrine by the United States Supreme Court. The author uses the case of Bush v. Gore as a recent illustration of the practice of judicial review, and he concludes with some general observations about judicial review and the rule of law in the United States.
The author delivered this Lecture in April 2001 at People's University Law School and at Peking University Law School, both in Beijing, China. This Lecture was designed to give the author's Chinese audiences an introduction to judicial review in the United States. China's legal system does not include an institution that is comparable to American judicial review, and the Chinese audiences found the institution interesting. The Chinese translation of this Lecture is scheduled to be published by the Wuhan University Law Review during 2002.

Intellectual Property Financing: Security Interests in Domain Names and Web Contents
Authors: Nguyen Xuan-Thao
Published: January 2023

Intellectual property has become an increasingly valuable corporate asset. Not surprisingly, many companies use intellectual property for security purposes in commercial financing schemes. The recent revision of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) was drafted with a comprehensive understanding of how intellectual property has been used generally in commercial transactions and as collateral in secured transactions. The revised Article 9 aims to facilitate more financing schemes secured by intangible assets in electronic com- merce. Given the growth of borderless, electronic commerce, new intellectual property assets such as domain names and web contents are often the primary assets of online companies.3 If these assets are secured for purposes of obtaining financing for online companies, both the lender (creditor/investor) and the online company (debtor) should understand the nature of the assets and how a security interest in the assets is perfected. Most importantly, from the lender's side, having a perfected security interest will provide the lender priority in the intangible assets over the bankruptcy trustee in the event the online company is insolvent. From the online company's side, it is important to understand how the securing of intellectual property is achieved and what impact it may have on the company's daily operation.
A Daubert Test of Hypnotically Refreshed Testimony in the Criminal Courts
Authors: Martin Earl F.
Published: January 2023

Following the lead of clinicians, the use of hypnosis in criminal investigations has increased over the last few decades, and it is this use that will be the focus of this Article. Specifically, this Article will look at the reliability of hypnotically refreshed testimony in the criminal courts. In Part II, attention will turn to a review of how the common law has responded to the questions raised by hypnotically refreshed testimony. With this background in mind, Parts III and IV will proceed to consider the impact the United States Supreme Court case of Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals, Inc. may have on this evidence. Part III will discuss Daubert and the more recent case of Kumho Tire Co. v. Carmichael, in an effort to detail the construct that Daubert has created to test the reliability of scientific evidence. Then, Part IV will employ this new construct as a means of investigating whether the behavioral science literature can support the forensic application of hypnotically refreshed testimony in criminal prosecutions.
Exploring graduate students’ socialization to international agriculture: A mixed methods needs assessment
Authors: Silvert Colby J. , Landaverde Rafael Q. , Diaz John , Rodriguez Mary T. , Kalauni Dharmendra
Published: January 2023

Internationalization of higher education’s agricultural disciplines is essential to account for agrifood system trends toward globalization and multiculturalism. Professional and academic associations can play a formative role preparing graduate students for their agricultural careers. Guided by socialization theory, this needs assessment explores graduate students’ perceived needs, expectations, and ideas to optimize engagement with associations focused on international agriculture. A convergent mixed methods design integrated and contrasted quantitative and qualitative data from an online survey—filled by 26 student participants—and qualitative data from a virtual fishbone focus group with seven participants. Students’ perceptions appear responsive to trends toward globalized food systems and demonstrate their desire for socialization to gain internationally focused capacities and connections to opportunities in a variety of global agricultural areas. Findings indicate associations geared toward internationally oriented scholarship and academics should expand to better encompass international development practice. Doing so would provide greater insight into practitioners’ priorities and facilitate alternative career pathways for graduate students interested in practice. Additionally, findings point to needs for student mentoring and communication efforts focused on equitable and inclusive engagement with first generation students and students in developing countries who may be financially inhibited from traveling for in-person socialization activities.

Published: January 2023

Introduction. Telmisartan is widely used in clinical practice during hypertension treatment. It is a specific angiotensin II receptor antagonist (type AT1), effective at oral intake, A bioequivalence study of Telzap® and Mikardis® was conducted with 60 volunteers.

Aim. The purpose of the bioequivalence trial was a comparative study of the pharmacokinetics and evidence of the bioequivalence of Mikardis® (telmisartan, tablets 80 mg, Boehringer Ingelheim International GmbH, Germany) and Telzap® (telmisartan, tablets 80 mg, Zentiva KS company, Czech Republic) in healthy volunteers after a single administration under fasting.

Materials and methods. To prove bioequivalence, an open label, comparative, randomized, crossover four-period replicate single-center clinical trial was conducted. The concentrations of telmisartan in plasma samples were determined by a validated HPLC-MS/MS method. A pharmacokinetic and statistical analysis was performed and confidence intervals for the pharmacokinetic parameters Cmax and AUC0-72 were calculated.

Results and discussion. It can be concluded that the studied formulations are bioequivalent in terms of pharmacokinetic parameters of test and reference drug. All 90 % confidence intervals of were within the bioequivalence range of 80–125 % for AUC0-72 and 73,07–136,85 % for Cmax.

Conclusion. Thus, according to the criteria used in the study, the formulations are proved to be bioequivalent.
MANAGEMENT OF THE MOUNT SEMERU ERUPTION DISASTER THROUGH SOCIAL CAPITAL
Authors: Mulyon Joko , Paramith Nurina Adi
Published: January 2023

People, wherever they are, are very vulnerable to natural disasters, especially those living in disasterprone areas. Natural disaster relief efforts can involve a wide range of social capital. Indonesia is crossed by various tectonic plates and has many active volcanoes, one of which is Mount Semeru in East Java. This research compares the role of social capital in efforts to deal with natural disasters in various regions and includes qualitative research with a case study in Sumbermujur Village, Candipuro District, Lumajang Regency, Indonesia. The role of social capital is very important both before the disaster occurs, when the disaster occurs, and when recovering from the disaster. The main sources of social capital in the Sumbermujur community are trust, local wisdom, and social capital linking. This research also highlights the importance of social capital as a disaster mitigation effort to be instilled in the younger generation, namely through disaster mitigation education in schools.

Attentional modulation as a mechanism for enhanced facial emotion discrimination: The case of action video game players
Authors: Ciobanu Alina , Shibata Kengo , Ali Lna , Rioja Kenneth , Andersen Søren K. , Bavelier Daphne , Bediou Benoit
Published: January 2023

Action video game players (AVGPs) outperform nonvideo game players (NVGPs) on a wide variety of attentional tasks, mediating benefits to perceptual and cognitive decision processes. A key issue in the literature is the extent to which such benefits transfer beyond cognition. Using steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEP) as a neural measure of attentional resource allocation, we investigated whether the attentional benefit of AVGPs generalizes to the processing of rapidly presented facial emotions. AVGPs (n = 36) and NVGPs (n = 32) performed a novel, attention-demanding emotion discrimination task, requiring the identification of a target emotion in one of two laterally presented streams of emotional faces. The emotional faces flickered at either 2.0 Hz or 2.5 Hz. AVGPs outperformed NVGPs at detecting the target emotions regardless of the type of emotion. Correspondingly, attentional modulation of the SSVEP at parieto-occipital recording sites was larger in AVGPs compared with NVGPs. This difference appeared to be driven by a larger response to attended information, as opposed to a reduced response to irrelevant distractor information. Exploratory analyses confirmed that this novel paradigm elicited the expected pattern of event-related potentials associated with target detection and error processing. These components did not, however, differ between groups. Overall, the results indicate enhanced discrimination of facial emotions in AVGPs arising from enhanced attentional processing of emotional information. This presents evidence for the attentional advantage of AVGPs to extend beyond perceptual and cognitive processes.

MULTIMODALITY TESTING OF HER2/NEU MARKER IN BREAST CANCER: A CORRELATIVE STUDY
Authors: Balar Shilpa , Joshi Esha , Desai Urja
Published: January 2023

Currently HER-2/neu status in breast cancer is categorized by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) in clinical practice. The amplification of the HER-2/neu gene has a prognostic significance. Quantitative determination of HER-2/neu gene amplification by qPCR or over-expression by qRT-PCR is not routinely used, whereas qPCR based assays can be an alternative method to evaluate HER-2/neu status. We searched literature and databases including the National Institutes of Health’s (NIH), National Library of Medicine (NLM), The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), PubMed, and Google Scholar. The current study aimed to identify the correlation between FISH, IHC, and real-time-PCR reaction in measuring HER-2/neu expression in breast cancer.
The therapeutic aspects of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Authors: Bentsa T. M.
Published: January 2023

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease in the developed world. NAFLD is encompasses a spectrum of liver manifestations ranging from simple steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), fibrosis and cirrhosis, which may ultimately progress to hepatocellular carcinoma. NASH is an aggressive form of NAFLD, associated with an increased risk of liver and non-liver-related mortality. Liver-biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosis, but the majority of patients liver damage can be diagnosed accurately by noninvasive methods.

Early identification and management of patients with intensive dietary and lifestyle modification are essential to prevent the development of advanced liver disease and its complications. Pharmacological therapy should be administered to patients with NASH purposed on the fibrosis inhibition, especially in case of the established predictors of high risk of disease progression (age ˃ 50 years, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes mellitus, or ALT increase), as well as to the patients with active NASH with high inflammatory activity

AN EFFECTIVE COMPUTATIONAL APPROACH BASED ON HERMITE WAVELET GALERKIN FOR SOLVING PARABOLIC VOLTERRA PARTIAL INTEGRO DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS AND ITS CONVERGENCE ANALYSIS
Authors: Rostami Yaser
Published: January 2023

In this research article Hermite wavelet based Galerkin method is developed for the numerical solution of Volterra integro-differential equations in onedimension with initial and boundary conditions. These equations include the partial differential of an unknown function and the integral term containing the unknown function which is the memory of the problem. Wavelet analysis is a recently developed mathematical tool in applied mathematics. For this purpose, Hermit wavelet Galerkin method has proven a very powerful numerical technique for the stable and accurate solution of giving boundary value problem. The theorem of convergence analysis and compare some numerical examples with the use of the proposed method and the exact solutions shows the efficiency and high accuracy of the proposed method. Several figures are plotted to establish the error analysis of the approach presented.
SIMPLE AND EFFICIENT FIFTH ORDER SOLVERS FOR SYSTEMS OF NONLINEAR PROBLEMS
Authors: Singh Harmandeep , Sharma Janak Raj
Published: January 2023

In this study, two multi-step iterative techniques of fifth order convergence are explored to solve nonlinear equations. The techniques are designed with the prime objective of keeping the computational cost as low as possible. To claim this objective, the efficiency indices are determined and compared with the efficiencies of the existing techniques of same order. The outcome of comparison analysis is remarkable from the view of high computational efficiency of new methods. Performance and stability are illustrated by executing the numerical tests on some nonlinear problems of diverse nature. The entire analysis significantly favors the new techniques compared to their existing counterparts, especially for the case of large dimensional systems.
ON THE CONSISTENCY AND CONVERGENCE OF CLASSICAL RICHARDSON EXTRAPOLATION AS APPLIED TO EXPLICIT ONE-STEP METHODS
Authors: Bayleyegn Teshome , Faragó István , Havasi Ágnes
Published: January 2023

The consistency of the classical Richardson extrapolation (CRE), a simple and robust computational device, is analysed for the case where the underlying method is an explicit one-step numerical method for ordinary differential equations with order of consistency one or two. It is shown in the classical framework that the CRE increases the order of consistency by one. The convergence of the method is proved by the assumption that the time-stepping operator of the base method has the Lipschitz property in its second argument.

PACS and SPIRE images of the associated clouds. The two clusters are at similar, and very close, distances. Star formation is ongoing in the Coronet, which hosts at least one Class 0 source and several pre-stellar cores, which may collapse and form stars. The B 59 cluster is older, although it still has a few Class I sources, and is less compact. The CrA cloud has a diameter of ∼0.16 pc, and we determine a dust temperature of 15.7 K and a star formation efficiency of ∼27%. The B 59 core is approximately twice as large, with a dust temperature of ∼11.4 K and a star formation efficiency of ∼14%. We infer that the gas densities are much higher in the Coronet, which has also formed intermediate-mass stars, while B 59 has only formed low-mass stars.

We present the first polarimetric space very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations of OJ 287, observed with RadioAstron at 22 GHz during a perigee session on 2014 April 4 and five near-in-time snapshots, together with contemporaneous ground VLBI observations at 15, 43, and 86 GHz. Ground-space fringes were obtained up to a projected baseline of 3.9 Earth diameters during the perigee session, and at a record 15.1 Earth diameters during the snapshot sessions, allowing us to image the innermost jet at an angular resolution of ∼50μ as, the highest ever achieved at 22 GHz for OJ 287. Comparison with ground-based VLBI observations reveals a progressive jet bending with increasing angular resolution that agrees with predictions from a supermassive binary black hole model, although other models cannot be ruled out. Spectral analyses suggest that the VLBI core is dominated by the internal energy of the emitting particles during the onset of a multiwavelength flare, while the parsec-scale jet is consistent with being in equipartition between the particles and magnetic field. Estimated minimum brightness temperatures from the visibility amplitudes show a continued rising trend with projected baseline length up to 1013 K, reconciled with the inverse-Compton limit through Doppler boosting for a jet closely oriented to the line of sight. The observed electric vector position angle suggests that the innermost jet has a predominantly toroidal magnetic field, which, together with marginal evidence of a gradient in rotation measure across the jet width, indicates that the VLBI core is threaded by a helical magnetic field, in agreement with jet formation models.

Energetic charged particles are pervasive throughout the heliosphere with contributions from solar energetic particle events, stream and corotating interaction regions, galactic cosmic rays, anomalous cosmic rays, and suprathermal ions. The Integrated Science Investigation of the Sun (IS⊙IS) on board the Parker Solar Probe is a suite of energetic particle detectors covering the energy range ∼20 keV–200 MeV nuc−1. IS⊙IS measures energetic particles closer to the Sun than any instrument suite in history, providing a singular view of the energetic particle population in a previously unexplored region. To enable the global research community to efficiently use IS⊙IS data, we have developed an online living catalog of energetic particle enhancements observed by the IS⊙IS instruments. Event identification methodology, information on accessing the catalog, highlights of several events, and a summary of the overall trends are presented. Also included is a summary Event Catalog showing many of the key event parameters for IS⊙IS events to the time of writing.
Constraints on Gamma-Ray Burst Models from GRB 221009A: GeV Gamma Rays versus High-energy Neutrinos
Authors: Liu Ruo-Yu , Zhang Hai-Ming , Wang Xiang-Yu
Published: January 2023

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are generally believed to be efficient particle accelerators. In the presence of energetic protons in a GRB jet, interactions between these protons and the intense radiation field of the GRB are supposed to induce an electromagnetic cascade. Electrons/positrons generated in the cascade will produce an additional spectrum of a robust feature, which is in the form of a power-law distribution up to a GeV regime with an index of ≲2. We suggest that measurements of the Fermi Large Area Telescope at the GeV band can provide independent constraints on the key GRB model parameters such as the dissipation radius, the jet’s bulk Lorentz factor, and the baryon loading factor. Taking GRB 221009A, the brightest GRB ever detected, as an example, we show that the constraints from GeV gamma-ray emission may be more stringent than that from the neutrino observation, providing us with deep insight into the origin of GRBs.

Ouro Preto, materialidades e espacialidades de sua paisagem
Authors: Guimarães Camila Ferreira , Alves Manoel Rodrigues
Published: January 2023

Desde o início do processo de ocupação de seu território, o patrimônio edificado e a paisagem urbana da cidade de Ouro Preto (Minas Gerais, Brasil) sofreram diversas modificações. Em um primeiro momento, durante a colonização portuguesa, essa paisagem foi pautada pela exploração do solo na busca de minérios e caracterizada por aspectos do barroco. Um segundo momento, da conformação urbana, diz respeito ao período de modernização nacional e valorização do patrimônio. Já no contexto contemporâneo, a materialidade dessa paisagem é conformada por dois aspectos: decorrente do urbanismo neoliberal, a turistificação do território pela associação da indústria do turismo à indústria cultural; simultaneamente, a busca dos moradores pela sobrevivência no espaço urbano por meio de ocupações informais. Neste sentido, referenciado em um entendimento particular da noção de paisagem, este trabalho propõe um olhar sobre as paisagens urbanas construídas em Ouro Preto ao longo da exploração do seu território, a partir da ênfase na materialidade, usos e apropriações.
La utilización del corcho en la construcción: innovación, instituciones y aplicación en Lisboa durante la década de 1940
Authors: García-Pereda Ignacio , Pesoa Marcilla Melisa
Published: January 2023

El corcho ha estado presente en la vida cotidiana, establecido como material de construcción, desde principios del siglo XX. Desde finales del siglo XIX, con la llegada de nuevas patentes, el material es valorado por la industria de Estados Unidos. En este artículo abordaremos la afirmación del corcho como material de construcción a partir del análisis de un laboratorio en Lisboa y de dos obras en la ciudad, donde se advierte que los nuevos usos derivan de las prestaciones técnicas (acústicas y térmicas) del material, pero también de una asociación con una imagen de modernidad. En síntesis, el cruce entre las variables institucional, empresarial y arquitectónica, nos permite entender la complejidad del proceso que permite al corcho posicionarse en el ámbito de la construcción.

Authors: Barbero-Barrera María del Mar , Coca Leicher José de
Published: January 2023

La dicotomía entre tradición y modernidad en España tiene su periodo álgido en la década de 1950 cuando coexisten representaciones artísticas y arquitectónicas vanguardistas y de una extraordinaria modernidad con el saber hacer de los oficios tradicionales de la construcción. Una combinación armónica en la que ambos puntos de vista se conjugan para extraer su máximo potencial. En el interés de evaluar esa relación, la investigación se centra en el estudio de los materiales y técnicas del mural ubicado en el antiguo pabellón de la Obra Sindical del Hogar, en el recinto ferial de la Casa de Campo en Madrid, un lugar surgido de la tradición y la experimentación. Los resultados muestran cómo las técnicas tradicionales de elaboración de azulejos y de decoración se combinan con un lenguaje moderno y plantea los criterios a tener en consideración para su restauración.

Active Learning and the Pythagorean Theorem Through Dynamic Geometry and Robotic Optimization
Authors: Lapp Douglas A. , Marcinek Tibor , Lapp Sarah E.
Published: January 2023

This chapter examines the use of technology within an active learning environment. The case follows Kaitlyn, a first-year high school teacher, through a series of 3 lessons designed to develop the Pythagorean Theorem by way of an applied real-world problem involving a robotic rover. Technology is used to motivate students to want to make sense of the mathematics involved and discover patterns that they will later justify. Throughout the lessons, the students employ concepts from previous classes and integrate several mathematical ideas, including: the triangle inequality, function notation and multivariable functions, Pythagorean triples, the Pythagorean Theorem, and slope. As the lessons progresses, the reader is asked to reflect on both the mathematics and classroom practice and connect it to research on teaching and learning. The use of active learning, authenticity of tasks and questions, dynamically linked representations, and effective use of discourse routines are addressed.
Impact of Virtual Field Trips on Elementary Students' Interest in Science and STEM
Authors: Poor Jasmin , Vasconcelos Lucas
Published: January 2023

The number of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) jobs available in the United States will soon outnumber those qualified to fill them. Equally concerning is the decreasing number of students pursuing STEM careers. Standards-based virtual field trips (VFTs) are a promising strategy to support student interest in science and STEM fields, as well as meet the educational needs of teachers and students. VFTs provide students opportunities to connect with academic content in contextualized ways regardless of location and logistical restrictions. This convergent parallel mixed methods study investigated the impact of VFT programs on elementary students' interest in specific science domains and STEM fields. Findings showed a non-statistically significant increase in participants' interest in science domains and STEM. Further, findings suggest that prior interest and role-based scenarios promote an increase in science and STEM interest. Implications for research and practice are discussed in this chapter.
Volatility of Semiconductor Companies
Authors: Takada Toshifumi
Published: January 2023

The objective of this article is to evaluate the volatility of semiconductor manufacturing companies in Taiwan and Japan. This article is an empirical study to evaluate the volatility of the top 10 large semiconductor companies in Taiwan and Japan using their financial statements and stock prices. By comparing Taiwanese and Japanese companies' volatility, the author can show the significance of evaluating the volatility by auditors. This can contribute to improving the audit practice of risk-based procedures. The author made the following conclusions: (1) Detection risk, inherent risk, control risk, risk of material misstatement, and business risk are related theoretically as follows: DR = AR / (IR x CR) = AR / RMM = AR / BR. (2) The volatility is equivalent to IR × CR, RMM, or BR. It resides in the client company. Auditors can't control it but just evaluate it. (3) Two empirical studies of the semiconductor companies of Taiwan and Japan clearly demonstrate the different values of volatility.

Proliferation of smart devices coupled with advances in computing technologies has aided smart decision-making. Though the term data science is of recent origin, the field utilizes cornerstone computing and statistical concepts to solve data-specific challenges. The role of a data scientist is to extract maximum information from raw data. This role has spawned across disciplines but only acts as a supplemental measure to actual domain knowledge. The field of data science encompasses analytics, artificial intelligence, and statistical modeling. Information security has not always been integral to the data science ecosystem. An increasingly connected world with heightened reliance on data has encouraged data scientists to be well-versed with data security. This article takes an overview of the commercial application using data science, machine learning, and big data.
Storage and Query Processing Architectures for RDF Data
Authors: Chawla Tanvi
Published: January 2023

The escalation in demand of RDF format for knowledge representation and information management can be attributed to its flexible nature. The RDF data model is increasingly being used for sharing and integration of information and knowledge across several domains. Some of the domains and applications where RDF model is increasingly being used include bioinformatics and search engines. As the amount of RDF data continues to increase, the management of such large amount of data becomes challenging. Thus, scalability is a major concern while handling large-scale RDF data. Hence, it becomes necessary to opt for scalable solutions while managing large RDF data. As a solution to this, many researchers opt for distributed data management systems. In this article, the authors provide a detailed analysis of RDF data management techniques used to make a RDF system more scalable. The objective of this article is to provide a brief description of the centralized and distributed RDF frameworks.

Web Service in Knowledge Management for Global Software Development
Authors: Pal Kamalendu
Published: January 2023

Software development is a knowledge-intensive practice. Software development teams rely on human resources and systematic approaches to share knowledge on system design. This collaborative knowledge sharing and preserving mechanism is known as “knowledge management” in software industries. In the software development process, coordination of system design functionalities requires knowledge-sharing infrastructure within the team members. Semantic web service computing (SWSC) provides opportunities and value-added service capabilities that the global software development team requires to exchange information. This article describes the features of an ontology-based web portal framework, called CKIA (collaborative knowledge integration architecture), for integrating distributed knowledge in a global software development project. The CKIA framework uses a hybrid knowledge-based system consisting of structural case-based reasoning (S-CBR), rule-based reasoning (RBR), and an ontology-based concept similarity assessment mechanism. Finally, a business scenario demonstrates some of the system's functionalities.
Hedonic Hunger and Obesity
Authors: Ural Ceren , Demirok Nazan Tokatli
Published: January 2023

Today, people's food consumption is due to the pleasure they feel for that food rather than their physiological needs. This situation is explained by the view of hedonism. According to this view, the happiness of a person in life is hidden in the pleasure and pleasure he receives from that life. Hedonic hunger, on the other hand, is when a person does not need energy but wants to consume that food for the pleasure he gets from delicious foods. Hedonic hunger prevents the homeostatic pathway when the energy in the body is higher than normal and increases the desire of the person to eat delicious foods. Food enjoyment may induce 'non-homoeostatic' eating. This could potentially contribute to obesity. Obesity has genetic and environmental interactions. It is also a serious and chronic disease. Today, it has become a growing health problem. Since obesity has become a very important health problem that threatens human health, it is very important to understand hedonic hunger in order to establish a meaningful connection between an individual's unhealthy lifestyle and food consumption.
