Identificación de cianobacterias en suelos de la región noroeste de la provincia de Córdoba, Argentina
Authors: Díaz Carola Celeste , Vettorello Cecilia
Published: February 2023

La expansión de la frontera agrícola ocasiona pérdidas de biodiversidad y de recursos genéticos nativos, afectando la sustentabilidad del ecosistema. Se considera que la presencia y la diversidad de cianobacterias son bioindicadores sensibles al cambio en el uso de los suelos. El objetivo de este trabajo fue caracterizar las comunidades de cianobacterias presentes en suelos del noreste de la provincia de Córdoba, comparando suelos con pasturas implantadas y en condiciones prístinas. Se tomaron muestras de suelo en tres localidades, en ambientes con distintos niveles de salinidad: leve, moderado y salino. Las muestras se cultivaron en medio Watanabe, en condiciones controladas para favorecer el crecimiento de las cianobacterias. Se lograron identificar las especies de cianobacterias presentes en cada sitio, observando una dominancia de fijadoras de nitrógeno heterocistadas en los suelos con mayor salinidad. A su vez, en los tres montes de cada sitio se observó mayor riqueza de especies. Las más sensibles al cambio en el uso del suelo fueron Oscillatoria limosa y Phormidium constricta. Las cianobacterias constituyen una futura línea de investigación relacionada a la restauración y recuperación productiva de ambientes salinos, dentro de una propuesta que contribuya a favorecer la biodiversidad del suelo.

Published: February 2023

Large amounts of lignocellulosic residual biomass are generated annually in La Rioja province (Argentina). We have performed a survey to identify crop residues and agro-industrial by-products in the province, which could be suitable for oyster mushroom culture. We characterized their morphological composition and estimated a proxy of the mass that is generated annually by each of them. We have also evaluated the availability of the biomass by assessing the processing, distribution, seasonality, cost and other common uses that may compete with its application as substrate. Eight residual crops and eight agro-industrial by-products were identified, being olive and grape pomace the most abundant, followed by grape pruning, and olive and jojoba litter. These last two in addition to Prosopis bran and olive pits, did not register use as a substrate for the production of oyster mushrooms. In biological efficiency (BE) assays with commercial strains of Pleurotus species we recorded BE ranging from 28% to 72% depending on the substrate and fungal species. In a context of high quality food production deficit and nutritional problems related to it, this province has an interesting potential to introduce the production and consumption of oyster mushrooms as a feasible solution for food supply regional.
Effect of the net radiation proxies on maize and soya evapotranspiration estimation using machine learning methods.
Authors: Venturini Virginia , Walker Elisabet , Fonnegra Mora Diana Carolina , Fagioli Gianfranco
Published: February 2023

Accurate evapotranspiration (ET) estimation is essential for water management in crops, but it is not an easy task. Empirical ET methodologies require precise net radiation (Rn) measurements to obtain accurate results. Nevertheless, Rn measurements are not easy to obtain from meteorological stations. Thus, this study explored the use of machine learning algorithms with two Rn substitutes, to estimate daily ET: the extraterrestrial solar radiation (Ra) and a modelled Rn (RnM). Support Vector Machine (SVM), Kernel Ridge (KR), Decision Tree (DT), Adaptive Boosting (AB), and Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) were applied to model FLUXNET Rn and ET observations. Adaptive Boosting produced the best field Rn measurements (RnO), yielding a Root Mean Square Error of about 16 % of the mean observed Rn. The resulting Rn (AB RnM) was used to model daily crops ET employing the above-mentioned machine learning methods with RnO, AB RnM, and Ra, in conjunction with meteorological variables and the NDVI index. The evaluated methods were suitable to estimate ET, yielding similar errors to those obtained with RnO, when contrasted with ET observations. These results demonstrate that AB and KR are applicable with rutinary meteorological and satellite data to estimate ET.
Evaluación de distintos materiales de construcción en el escudo del cabezal de la cosechadora de girasol (Helianthus annuus L.) para la reducción del desgrane del capítulo
Authors: Mavolo Luca , Rivero David , Botta Guido
Published: February 2023

En la cosecha, el mayor porcentaje de pérdidas de granos se produce en el cabezal de la cosechadora. Este supera el 70 % del total de pérdidas en el cultivo de girasol (Helianthus annuus L.). Los objetivos de este trabajo fueron ensayar los distintos materiales de fabricación del escudo del cabezal girasolero a distintas velocidades, para disminuir pérdidas por impact; y proponer distintas velocidades recomendadas para cada material. El ensayo fue realizado sobre girasol confitero (Híbrido NTC 90). Se utilizó un cabezal marca Mainero. Este fue probado con dos velocidades de avance diferentes (6,5 km/h y 8 km/h) con tres escudos construidos con diferentes materiales: un escudo de chapa de 2 mm de espesor, un escudo recubierto de elastómero, y un escudo construido en fibra de vidrio. El parámetro evaluado fue la pérdida de granos en el cabezal de la cosechadora. Los resultados que se obtuvieron indican que el escudo de fibra de vidrio presentó el menor porcentaje de pérdidas de grano y que a 8 km/h las pérdidas de granos superaron      los valores recomendados, independientemente del escudo utilizado. Se concluye que la utilización de materiales más elásticos reduce las pérdidas.

Published: February 2023

This research aimed to discover how the Angkara movie is based on Balinese traditional art and to find out the mise and scene in the pre-production, production, and post-production processes. Clekontong Mas for the Balinese people is a comedian studio (Bondres), which is well known and admired by the community. Clekontong is translated as ritual media, and Mas means noble. This studio was founded in Denpasar in 2012 and pioneered by I Komang Dedi Diana (Tompel), I Ketut Gede Rudita (Sokir), and I Nyoman Ardika (Sengap). Bondres  profoundly has the opportunity to be the inspiration for innovative film productions. However, there is no related research that has examined it further. The data sources used Angkara movies, film directors, cultural experts, and the audience. The method of data collection was conducted through observation, interviews, and documentation; online and offline. The Angkara movie was analyzed from the initial scene to the final scene qualitatively using the approach of setting, directing style, blocking, costumes, lighting, and revealing the aesthetics of the Angkara film. The result found that Angkara is a comedy genre film based on Balinese traditions. Directing style, and blocking the placement of Clekonteng Mas were successful role measurements in acting. The costumes of Angkara actors with traditional Balinese characteristics can describe the comedian's situation based on Balinese’s local wisdom. The social phenomenon in the production of the Angkara movie was produced and won national and international festivals. Presenting local Balinese cultural identity can be a source of film creation and characteristics to enrich the aesthetics of Balinese’s local wisdom in the form of films.

Published: February 2023

Documentary film is a film genre that has a very important role in human civilization. Documentary films can "revive" everything that did not exist before, so that it can be known by a wide audience through visualization and verbal information that can be accounted for. One of the functions that documentaries also have is as a cultural educational medium that is easily accessed digitally by anyone, anywhere. This writing will examine the philosophical values that are visually transformed in the Cultural Documentary Film "The Balinese Bride Makeup: Symbols and Meanings". This writing uses a qualitative descriptive method, by providing explanatory descriptions of the results of the study using Documentary Film theory (Ayawaila: 2018) and Anthropological theory (Sare: 2007). The results obtained through this paper include findings on 3 cultural philosophical values contained in the documentary films used as research objects, as follows: 1) Character Education Values; 2) Values of Roles and Responsibilities, and 3) Cultural Inheritance Values.

Published: February 2023

Gurita in English is called Octopus which often refers only to animals of the genus Octopus. This creation is based on the results of research on the octopus which is used as a symbolic brand icon to reveal the existence of the current social, cultural, economic and political realities. In interpreting the characteristics of the shape and nature of the Octopus, it is expressed through a metaphorical visual language to represent the value of rajas and tamas that permeates the human soul. This study aims to present visual aesthetic values and symbolic meanings through the processing of forms of abstraction, distortion and deformation, as an expression of the growing influence of global capitalism in people's lives which are dominated by the energy of guna rajas and guna tamas. The research method is carried out by observation, interviews, documentation and media reset as well as the stages of creation through exploration, improvisation and formation. The visualization of the work presents the complexity of lines, colors, shapes and textures by carrying out technical and coloring hybridization, in order to present meaningful forms which are symbolic representations of the rajas and tamas that dominate people's lives today. The concept of creation offered is a form of concern for the emergence of moral and moral degradation in society which has implications for the fading of ethical values, and a sense of humanity as contained in animal values which promote love and tolerance among others, which in Hinduism is known as term; mutual sharpening, compassion and care, sagilik, saguluk, salunglung sabayantaka, paras paros sarpanaya.It is not enough for this kind of concept to be offered only through works of art, but it really needs to be communicated in the wider social field, so that interactive and communicative dialogue occurs, while at the same time providing education and enlightenment, so as to create new awareness, so that we have the ability and strength to facing or overcoming current global issues.

Defriending in a polarized age: Political and racial homophily and tie dissolution
Authors: Paik Anthony , Pachucki Mark C. , Tu Hsin Fei
Published: February 2023

Given increased political polarization and racial tension in the wake of the 2016 presidential election in the United States, this paper examines dropped ties in personal networks at that time based on political and racial identities. We employed data from the 2015-2018 UCNets study (n=1,159), a longitudinal, representative data set of the San Francisco Bay Area. In late 2015 and early 2016 it generated personal network data via multiple name generators, eliciting alters whom respondents socialized with, confided in, received advice from, exchanged social support with, and found difficult. Using multilevel multinomial logit models, we then examined various reasons for tie dissolution immediately following the inauguration of Trump in early 2017. The results show that among young adults, politically dissimilar alters were more likely to be dropped due to disagreements. With respect to racial homophily, we found that interracial dyads were more likely to be dropped because of drifting apart or some other reason for both younger and older cohorts. Overall, there is some support for the notion that dropped ties due to political disagreements did occur immediately following the 2016 election, but the results highlight the continuing significance of race in personal networks.

Published: February 2023

Associative thinking plays a major role in creativity, as it involves the ability to link distant concepts. Yet, the neural mechanisms allowing to combine distant associates in creative thinking tasks remains poorly understood. We investigated the whole-brain functional connectivity patterns related to combining remote associations for creative thinking. Using a connectome predictive modeling approach, we examined whole-brain functional connectivity patterns related to connecting close and distant remote associates in the Combination Association Task (CAT). Brain connectivity networks predicting CAT performance showed contributions from brain functional connectivity mostly related to the Default Mode Network, likely related to associative processes required in all trials of the task. Besides, the functional connectivity pattern of associative remoteness linked to CAT trials also largely involved the Executive Control Network, Dorsal Attention Network and Somatomotor networks, suggesting that more controlled processes played an important role in trials with higher associative remoteness. Critically, the functional connectivity patterns related to higher creative demands of the task share similarities with functional connectivity patterns previously found to predict divergent thinking. Thus, our work potentially offers insights into neural mechanisms that play a role in both convergent and divergent remote thinking.

Published: February 2023

To understand the effects of COVID-19 preventive measures such as social distancing and mask-wearing on social wayfinding, we carried out a virtual reality (VR) study. Participants traversed a VR room, moving around an obstacle – either a virtual person (an “agent”) or an inanimate object. We varied whether the participant was wearing a mask, whether the agent was wearing a mask, and whether the context was “safe” or “unsafe” in terms of potential contagion. Participants’ navigational choices, we found, were strongly influenced by whether the agent was wearing a mask, and by the safety of the environment, but not as much by whether the participant was wearing a mask. We also saw evidence of risk compensation: participants were more willing to closely approach an agent when the risk of contagion was lower. These results are important for the formation, evaluation and implementation of public health policies to contain contagious diseases.
Suspending the embodied self in meditation attenuates beta oscillations in posterior medial cortex

Published: February 2023

Human experience is imbued by the sense of being an embodied agent. The investigation of such basic self-consciousness has been hampered by the difficulty of comprehensively modulating it in the laboratory while reliably capturing ensuing subjective changes. The present preregistered study fills this gap by combining advanced meditative states with principled phenomenological interviews: Forty-six long-term meditators (19 female, 27 male) were instructed to modulate and attenuate their embodied self-experience during magnetoencephalographic monitoring. Results showed frequency specific (high beta band) activity reductions in frontoparietal and posterior medial cortices (PMC). Importantly, PMC reductions were driven by a subgroup describing radical embodied self disruptions, including suspension of agency and dissolution of a localised first-person perspective. Neural changes were correlated with lifetime meditation and interview-derived experiential changes, but not with classical self-reports. The results demonstrate the potential of integrating in-depth first-person methods into neuroscientific experiments. Furthermore, they highlight neural oscillations in the PMC as a central process supporting the embodied sense of self.
Linking the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-I) and the Depression Subscale from the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-D)
Authors: Haft Stephanie , Persons Jacqueline
Published: February 2023

The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-I) and depression subscale from the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-D) are two common measures of depressive symptoms. The aim of the present study was to use unidimensional item response theory (IRT) and equipercentile linking methods to produce score cross-walk tables so that the BDI-I and DASS-D could be compared. A sample of college students (N=455; 75% female, 21% White) completed both the BDI-I and the DASS-D simultaneously. Methodology outlined by the PROsetta Stone project (Choi et al., 2021) was used to link the BDI-I and DASS-D using data from this sample. A separate validation sample of individuals recruited from Amazon mTurk (N=136) was used to further test the accuracy of instrument linking methods. Results suggested that the BDI-I and DASS-D were sufficiently unidimensional to be linked, and that IRT-based methods with fixed parameter calibration produced the most accurate score cross-walk tables.
Effectiveness of the Deterministic and Stochastic Bivariate Latent Change Score Models for Longitudinal Research
Authors: Cáncer Pablo Fernández , Estrada Eduardo
Published: February 2023

The Bivariate Latent Change Score (BLCS) model is a popular framework for the study of dynamics in longitudinal research. Despite its popularity, there is little evidence of the ability of this model to recover latent dynamics when the latent trajectories are affected by stochastic innovations (i.e., dynamic error). The deterministic specification of the BLCS model does not account for the effect of these innovations in the system. In contrast, the stochastic specification of the BLCS model includes parameters that capture the effect of such innovations at the latent level. Through Monte Carlo simulation, we generated two developmental processes and examined the recovery of the parameters in the deterministic and stochastic BLCS models under a broad range of empirically relevant conditions. Based on our findings, we provide specific guidelines and recommendations for the application of BLCS models in developmental research. https://doi.org/10.1080/10705511.2022.2161906
Pushing the Bounds of Bounded Optimality and Rationality
Authors: Musslick Sebastian , Masis Javier Alejandro
Published: February 2023

All forms of cognition, whether natural or artificial, are subject to constraints of their computing architecture. This assumption forms the tenet of virtually all general theories of cognition, including those deriving from bounded optimality and bounded rationality. In this letter, we highlight an unresolved puzzle related to this premise: what are these constraints, and why are cognitive architectures subject to cognitive constraints in the first place? First, we lay out some pieces along the puzzle edge, such as computational tradeoffs inherent to neural architectures that give rise to rational bounds of cognition. We then outline critical next steps for characterizing cognitive bounds, proposing that some of these bounds can be subject to modification by cognition and, as such, are part of what is being optimized when cognitive agents decide how to allocate cognitive resources. We conclude that these emerging views may contribute to a more holistic perspective on the nature of cognitive bounds, as well as their alteration subject to cognition.

That's interesting! The role of epistemic emotions and perceived credibility in the relation between prior beliefs and susceptibility to fake-news
Authors: Rijo Angela , Waldzus Sven
Published: February 2023

The present research examines processes involved in how people believe and share news posts on social media. We tested whether the relation between individuals' previous political beliefs and judging the accuracy of and willingness to share fake and true news is mediated by epistemic emotional response (surprise and interest) and perceived credibility (trustworthiness, rigorosity, impartiality). In a within-subjects experiment, we presented ten publications (5 true, 5 fake) with political content, extracted from Facebook, to 259 Portuguese participants. The results showed that fake and true news were processed in a similar way. Emotional response and perceived credibility did not only depend on the content, but also on previous beliefs. Negative beliefs about the political system increased emotional response to true and false news, which in turn increased perceptions of credibility, leading to higher accuracy attributions and willingness of sharing news (true or false). The most distinctive difference between the participants interactions with fake and true news was that participants willingness to share fake news was not entirely explained by emotional response and credibility perceptions. We conclude that people seem to rely on emotional cues, appraised with regard to previous beliefs, and on emotionally biased credibility indicators to guess whether news are true or worth sharing.

This report describes a pilot non-randomised controlled evaluation of the full Sharper Minds package in 2022. In total, 365 undergraduate students from across the university opted in to one of three conditions: Control (n=112); 1 Intervention (used the weekly tracker or completed a short course, n=158), or 2 Interventions (weekly tracker plus a short course, n=95). Results showed that on average, students who used the weekly tracker and completed one of the online courses experienced significant improvements in mental health symptoms and loneliness. Furthermore, using the app tracker or completing one of the online courses protected students from a reduction in academic motivation experienced in the control group. These benefits occurred even though participants’ number of academic and general stressors remained consistent across the semester. A preliminary economic analysis revealed a net benefit of $305 per participant. These findings demonstrated the helpfulness of the Sharper Minds model for improving mental health in undergraduate university students.
The role of research design in the reproducibility of L1 and L2 language networks: A review of bilingual neuroimaging meta-analyses
Authors: Comstock Lindy B
Published: February 2023

Meta-analyses are a method by which to increase the statistical power and generalizability of neuroimaging findings. In the neurolinguistics literature, meta-analyses have the potential to substantiate hypotheses about L1 and L2 processing networks and to reveal differences between the two that may escape detection in individual studies. Why then is there so little consensus between the reported findings of even the most recently published and most highly-powered meta-analyses? Limitations in the literature, such as the absence of a common method to define and measure descriptive categories (e.g., proficiency level, degree of language exposure, age of acquisition, etc.) are often cited. An equally plausible explanation lies in the technical details of how individual meta-analyses are conducted. This paper provides a review of recent meta-analyses, with a discussion of their methodological choices and the possible effect those choices may have on the reported findings.

Authors: Subedi Buddha , Devkota Binu , Shrestha Bishal
Published: February 2023

Floods are devastating natural hazard responsible for direct mortality, deterioration of crops, and damage to infrastructure and property. So, their study is crucial for watershed management and mitigation of flood hazards. The main objective of this study was to create a scientifically valid flood hazard map of the Indrawati River Basin (IRB) through the use of the multi-criteria decision analysis approach. Topographical Wetness Index (TWI), Elevation (EL), Slope (SL), Precipitation (PPT), Land Use/Land Cover (LULC), Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Distance from the River (DRI), Distance from the Road (DRO), Drainage Density (DD), and Soil Type (ST) were chosen as flood triggering factors based on literature review, data availability, and catchment characteristics. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method was used for determining the relative weight of each flood causative factor. All these factors were resampled into a 30 m × 30 m pixel size. Based on an evaluation of satellite imagery, 30 flood points were identified in the IRB, and these points were used as the testing dataset for validating the outcome. Based on results, the IRB has been classified into five different flood susceptible zones; very low, low, moderate, high, and very high. According to the study, 13%, 26%, 30%, 23%, and 8% of the total area are in very low, low, moderate, high, and very high flood susceptible zones, respectively. The Area Under the Curve (AUC) value for the success rate was 0.792. The results of this study will be crucial for concerned parties to design early warning systems and flood risk reduction measures for flood preparedness.

Due to ongoing global climate change, the glaciers in the Himalaya are shrinking and the glacial lakes are increasing in number and area. This study investigates the glacier area change, mass balance and associated glacial lake evolution in the headwaters of Kawari basin, western Nepal using optical remote sensing images. The results indicate that eleven glaciers in the study area have shrunk by 1.64 km2 between 1994 and 2021. In the same period, due to glacier recession glacial lake formed and expanded by 0.0103 km2 yr-1 reaching 0.34±0.042 km2 in 2021. Surface elevation change of glaciers revealed that the ablation zone of glacier thinned up to -8.18 m between 2000 and 2019. The specific mass balance of eleven glaciers was calculated to be -0.3 m w. e. yr-1 from 2000 to 2019. The study of glaciers is important as they are visible signals of climate change, and their changes often impact water resources and mountain hydrology.

Information system design is designing or creating a new system to overcome old problems. System design can be interpreted as a system development cycle, defining functional requirements, preparing for the implementation of the design, describing a system, namely drawing, planning, limiting sketches, including configuring software and hardware components of a system. The design of a website-based Budget Plan (RAB) monitoring information system has the objective of monitoring the RAB. If there is no RAB monitoring, often the RAB files that need to be followed up stop and the process takes longer and also sometimes the files are not found because it is difficult to track them. The success rate of the RAB monitoring information system functions properly, the system and features that have been made can be used properly without errors

Emotional Intelligence as Intangible Class Content for Effective Communication in Managing University Classes: A Bibliometrics Analysis
Authors: Kumar Narendra , Tandon Ruchi , Misra Nisha
Published: February 2023

John Mayer and Peter Salavoy devised the term ‗Emotional Intelligence‘ in 1990, later popularized by psychologist Daniel Goleman psychologist Daniel Goleman and popularized through his scholarly work Emotional Intelligence in 1995. Since then this term has fascinated the world. The Harvard Business Review of 2003 determined that 80% of competencies distinguishing the top performers from the rest were owing to their high emotional intelligence. A lot of research has been done in the area since the last decade of the twentieth century conferring Emotional Intelligence (EI) a superior position to its equally important counterpart, the Intelligence Quotient (IQ). The present study aims to map the growing research, spread across domains covering Emotional Intelligence as a central theme, through a review of published articles in the Scopus database. In all, 860 articles were retrieved and refined to take 680 final articles. The data extracted was analysed based on different bibliographic parameters was visualized with the help of VOS viewer. Based on the contributions made by the countries, Spain topped the list with 137 contributions whereas the US topped the list of total link strength (1892). The overly visualization of the authors‘ bibliographic coupling shows that the most substantial authors were Extremera N. (with 20 publications), Merida-Lopez S. (with 13 publications), and Brackett M. A. (with 10 publications). In contrast, emotional intelligence, stress, self-efficacy, burnout, academic achievement have been the most recurrently considered and referred concepts. The most significant and prominent journal has been Frontiers in Psychology and Teaching and Teacher Education in this field. Frontiers in Psychology‖, Sustainability (Switzerland), and ―International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health‖ topped the list of the latest publications in this literature.

The experiments were done during 2015 to 2018 in eight environments considering climate and soil chemistry factors. The evaluation of genotypes was carried out in early root bulking cassava to identify the promising ones for tuber yield stability based on Additive Effects and Multiplicative Interaction (AMMI () biplot analysis. Results showed that genotypes, CMR 51-61-1, CMR 51-48-17, CMR 51-48-16, OMR 51-20-5, OMM0806 - 57, UJ3 and UJ5 were most stable as compared to CMR 51-07-13 and CMR 51-06-16. The important environmental factors affecting yield stability of cassava promising genotypes based on tuber yield in seven months crop duration were N and P2O5 contents and pH on topsoil. Mean fresh tuber yield of OMR 51-20-5 was 25% significantly higher than UJ3 and the increasing value was equal to US $ 745/ha while of OMR 51-20-5, it was 15% higher than UJ5 and the increasing value was equal to US $ 482/ha. The genotype, OMR 51-20-5 has been released recently in 2020 as VAMAS 1 by the Indonesian Government.

The objective of the study was to validate molecular markers linked to genomic regions controlling flowering time in a set of Recombinant Inbred Lines (RILs) population derived from Pusa 362 (Late) x BGD 132 (Early) and 21 diverse genotypes differing in time of flowering in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). The study of the polymorphic survey between parents using 27 linked markers of chickpea and Arabidopsis found 8 of them polymorphic. Bulked Segregant Analysis identified TA64 and TA142 as putatively linked to efl3 locus governing early flowering in chickpea that can be utilized for marker assisted selection. The PCR amplification of 6 polymorphic markers in germplasm showed the presence of one or more alleles in many of them (up to 3), indicating the complex nature of flowering time in chickpea. The amplification pattern of CaEfl3a-F1 marker linked to Efl3 early flowering allele of Arabidopsis in 21 chickpea germplasm indicated the presence of some conserved genomic sequences controlling flowering time in the two species.
