Published: August 2024

There are approximately 86 billion neurons in the human brain that carry out a significant amount of brain communication. The nature of the language that the brain’s nervous system uses for communication is electrochemical. Electroencephalography (EEG) is a beneficial technique that gives us the opportunity to record brain activity over time to study various cognitive processes, including language processing in different levels and aspects, with millisecond precision. The purpose of the present paper is to help undergraduate students who might be interested in pursuing language research and provide basic knowledge for performing EEG recordings in the domain of Psycholinguistics. To this aim, this paper starts with a short introduction to EEG along with its pros and cons and then focuses on some general guidelines for designing, recording, analyzing, and reporting EEG data. In the end, some suggestions are provided to overcome the limitations of EEG and use it in a more efficient way.
Manipulating Our Brains: The Neuroethics of Social Media Addiction
Authors: Kumar Bhavya
Published: August 2024

The past few decades have resulted in an influx of social media usage, and this has manifested itself as a social media addiction. This addiction not only consumes large amounts of time, but also has the power to alter user’s lives, driven by the exploitation of the brain’s reward system and its mechanism. In the digital age, companies like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok deliberately design their platforms to encourage dopamine release, using psychological concepts such as intermittent reinforcement, gamification, and community presents to foster addiction. The ethical concerns of this manipulation lacking consent raise concerns about mental autonomy and well-being. Thus, this paper explores the neuroethical dimensions of social media addiction, examining psychological principles causing addiction and the urgent need for ethical standards and regulation to protect users' mental autonomy.
Societies have functions for individuals and collectives
Authors: Smaldino Paul E.
Published: August 2024

The definition of society as identity group is most likely to be useful when combined with the instrumental functions of identity groupings. These take two key forms, with important differences. First, identity groupings are useful for individual decision making. Second, societies can be units of collective behavior and information processing. Disentanglement of these forms is needed.
Age-related Differences in Generalization of Social Learning
Authors: Lilly Lauren Hsien , Cooper Jessica , Cassidy Brittany Shane , Seaman Kendra Leigh
Published: August 2024

Trust is an important social decision that fosters interpersonal cooperation. Prior research suggests that people generalize learned trust to new individuals based on perceptual similarity (FeldmanHall et al., 2018). Building on this, the current study investigated age differences in this generalization. We examined how older versus younger adults trust new individuals differently based on their previous interactions with perceptually similar others. After learning the trustworthiness of three partners (Trustworthy, Neutral, Untrustworthy) through an iterative trust game, younger (N=33) and older (N=30) adults selected new partners to play with in a future trust game. Unbeknownst to the participants, the new partners were created from morphed images between novel faces and the three known faces with varying degrees of similarity (from 23% to 78%). We analyzed the age differences in participants’ choices with respect to this perceptual similarity. A hierarchical logistic regression determined that the trust contrast (the choice difference between playing with trustworthy and untrustworthy morphs) widened less for older than younger adults as perceptual similarity increases (odds ratio = 0.9430, B = -0.06, SE = 0.01, p < 0.001), suggesting that older adults’ trust generalization was more muted than younger adults. These findings revealed that older adults do not generalize their learned trust as well as younger adults, especially to the untrustworthy. While this effect may lead them to stereotype less than younger adults, it is also possible that they may be more willing to engage with untrustworthy individuals than younger adults, which may function to facilitate fraud victimization.
Historical myths define group boundaries: A mathematical sketch and evidence from Ukraine

The authors’ proposal for the evolutionary origins of historical myths does not hold up to scrutiny, as illustrated by a simple mathematical model. Group-level explanations, such as defining the conditions for in-group membership, are dismissed by the authors but are far more plausible, as illustrated by the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Proactive control adaptation in Stroop tasks reflects adjustments in the strength of distractor suppression
Authors: Kelber Paul , Ulrich Rolf , Mackenzie Ian Grant , Jeschke Martin Georg , Mittelstädt Victor
Published: August 2024

Conflict tasks often yield smaller mean congruency effects when relevant (target) and irrelevant (distractor) information is mostly incongruent rather than mostly congruent. While this proportion congruency effect may reflect proactive control adaptation, only a few previous studies have provided convincing evidence for proactive control adaptation when ruling out contingency learning and reactive (item-specific) control adaptation. In this study, we present further evidence for proactive control adaptation (as reflected in proportion congruency effects and asymmetrical list-shifting effects in contingency-free transfer items) across three experiments (each N = 100 participants) using manual counting Stroop tasks (Experiment 1: number words as distractors; Experiment 2: Arabic numerals as distractors; Experiment 3: number words and Arabic numerals as inducer and transfer items, or vice versa). To better understand the processes underlying proactive control adaptation, we conducted fine-grained distributional analyses (delta functions) and model-based analyses (diffusion model for conflict tasks). These analyses suggest that proactive control adaptation in manual counting Stroop tasks mainly reflects adjustments in the strength of distractor suppression rather than in the timing of distractor suppression, the strength of target amplification, or response caution. Additional distributional and diffusion model re-analyses of the data by Spinelli and Lupker (2023, Experiments 1–3) revealed a similar pattern in vocal color Stroop tasks. In conclusion, the present study provides new evidence for proactive control adaptation in manual counting Stroop tasks, and indicates that proactive control adaptation mainly reflects adjustments in the strength of distractor suppression in both manual and vocal Stroop tasks.
Discovering patterns of social connections among older adults: A machine learning cluster analysis
Authors: Bu Feifei , Fancourt Daisy
Published: August 2024

Importance: Issues related to social connection are increasingly recognised as a global public health priority. However, there is a lack of a holistic understanding of social connection and its health impacts as most empirical research focuses on a single or few individual concepts of social connection. Objective: To explore patterns of social connection and their relationship with health and wellbeing outcomes. Design: Observational study using machine learning cluster analysis and regression analysis. Setting: England.Participants: Our analytical sample included 7,706 participants aged 50 or above from the forth wave of the English Longitudinal Study of Aging (2008-2009). Exposure: social connection clusters informed by the cluster analysis.Main Outcomes and Measures: This study considered a number of outcomes related to mental health (depression), hedonic (life satisfaction, pleasure) and eudaimonic (self-realisation) wellbeing, general health (self-reported health) and health behaviour (moderate or vigorous physical activity). We controlled for a number of key confounders identified using directed acyclic graphs, including age, sex, ethnicity, education, social class and wealth.Results: Among 7,706 participants, the mean age was 64.7 (SD=9.6) and 54.9% were females. We identified five clusters including: the highly connected (33.0%), disconnected (12.6%), gapped structure & poor function (14.4%), gapped structure & high function (20.5%) and poor function & mixed quality (19.5%) clusters. All clusters had poorer outcomes compared to the highly connected cluster. The difference was smallest between the highly connected and gapped structure & high function clusters across most outcomes.

Published: August 2024

An unusual situation exists in Indonesia, where cadastral measurement and mapping for land registration do not adhere to a single coordinate reference framework. The Technical Guidelines for PTSL (2020–2022) state that land parcel measurements can be tied to the National TDT and/or to CORS reference stations, despite the fact that these two use different datum systems. If this is done, issues of gaps and overlaps may arise between adjacent land parcels during mapping. This study aims to highlight the multiplicity of coordinate reference frameworks used in cadastral measurement and mapping, and their relation to the national single map policy. A descriptive-comparative method with a quantitative approach was employed to compare the coordinates resulting from TDT measurements that fall within different coordinate systems and are used in cadastral mapping. The results indicate significant differences in the TDT position coordinates due to the different epoch references of the datum systems, as well as variations in the shape of the TDT network in the study area. This implies that TDT of orders 2, 3, 4, and densification orders from BPN cannot be used as a reference for land parcel binding in cadastral mapping.
Keywords: mapping datum, multiple coordinate reference frameworks, coordinate differences, cadastral mapping.
 
INTISARI
Suatu kondisi yang tidak lazim terjadi di Indonesia, di mana pengukuran dan pemetaan kadastral untuk pendaftaran tanah tidak mengacu pada satu kerangka acuan koordinat yang tunggal. Petunjuk Teknis PTSL (2020–2022) menyatakan bahwa pengukuran bidang-bidang tanah dapat diikatkan pada TDT Nasional dan/atau pada stasiun acuan CORS, meskipun keduanya menggunakan sistem datum yang berbeda. Jika hal ini dilakukan, akan timbul masalah gap dan overlap pada bidang-bidang tanah yang berbatasan saat pemetaan dilakukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengungkap keberagaman kerangka acuan koordinat yang digunakan dalam pengukuran dan pemetaan kadastral, serta kaitannya dengan kebijakan peta tunggal nasional. Metode deskriptif-komparatif dengan pendekatan kuantitatif digunakan untuk membandingkan koordinat hasil pengukuran TDT yang berada pada sistem koordinat yang berbeda dan digunakan dalam pemetaan kadastral. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya perbedaan yang signifikan dalam koordinat posisi TDT, yang disebabkan oleh perbedaan epok referensi sistem datum. Selain itu, terdapat variasi perubahan bentuk jaring TDT di daerah penelitian. Ini berarti bahwa TDT orde 2, 3, 4, dan orde perapatan dari BPN tidak dapat digunakan sebagai acuan pengikatan bidang tanah untuk pemetaan kadastral.

Published: August 2024

Brain tumours are a common and dangerous type of malignant tumour that, if not detected early enough, can cut short a patient's life. The segmentation and classification of brain tumours using solely traditional medical image processing is a difficult and time-consuming task. Various imaging modalities, such as Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and ultrasound image, are frequently utilized to assess brain, lung, liver, breast, prostate and other tumours. MRI images are specifically utilised in these analyses to detect brain tumours. As a result, developing approaches for detecting, recognizing, and classifying the conditions based on image analysis becomes essential. A comprehensive and automatic classification system is important to saving human lives. The geographical and anatomical heterogeneity of brain tumours makes automatic categorization challenging. This study proposes an automated method for detecting brain tumours using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) classification, with the primary goal of developing a deep learning model that is capable of accurately identifying and classifying images as either having a brain tumour or not. In this paper, we provide a classification model for brain tumours based on a Deep Convolutional Neural Network with a vanilla neural network technique. The proposed method's performance on a publicly available dataset of 3000 Brain MRI Images yielded superior results, with accuracy and F1 score of 98.00 percent and 98.00 percent, respectively. This study shows that the proposed vanilla-CNN model can be used to make it easier for brain tumours to be automatically classified

Authors: Павлушенко Ольга
Published: August 2024

The article analyzes the conceptual features of the European phenomenon that formed in Ukrainian public discourse at the end of the first quarter of the 21st century. The purpose of the article is to determine the content of the concept of "Europe" that was in Ukrainian public discourse at the end of the first quarter of the 21st century, when the civilizational choice of Ukrainians received a new impetus for realization through the decision of the European Council to begin negotiations on Ukraine's accession to the European Union. The main research method is conceptual analysis, which involves studying various substrate mental units – representations, scenarios, and gestalts associated with the phenomenon of Europe in the collective consciousness of Ukrainian society. Additionally, the method of discourse analysis is applied at the stage of processing the mass media objectification of the concept of "Europe". Results. The following conceptual features have been identified: Europe as a space for the comprehensive realization of the individual; well-being and freedom as fundamental civilizational principles aspired to by Ukrainian society; democracy built on the rule of law and respect for individuals; partnership relations among all states and nations without domination by the stronger; unity of diverse cultures; civilizational choice for progress into the future; an influencing factor on Ukraine; a state of crisis associated with the weaknesses of liberal democracy on the one hand, and the dominance of consumer interests in European societies on the other; and the vulnerability of the political system to hybrid expansion by totalitarian and autocratic regimes. Conclusion. The analysis of the verbal explication of the conceptual features of the phenomenon of Europe in Ukrainian public discourse leads to the conclusion that the content of the studied linguistic construct in the collective consciousness of Ukrainians at the end of the first quarter of the 21st century is formed by the following main frames: institutional Eurocentrism with the system-forming role of the European Union, civilizational values, socio-cultural unity of diversity, production culture, and Eurointegration aspirations as a path to the future.

Neg-raising in Russian Sing Language
Authors: Dubyaga Alena O.
Published: August 2024

The article is devoted to the primary search for neg-raising in Russian Sign Language. Neg-raising is a phenomenon of syntactic or pragma-semantic nature that occurs when a matrix verb takes over the negation from a dependent clause, while semantically negation pertains to a dependent verb. Neg-raising has been thoroughly studied in sound languages, but sign languages were not previously included in a typological review: there are only four studies that consider the neg-raising phenomenon. A corpus analysis revealed the neg-raising verbs of the propositional attitude want, love, need. During the experiment, consisting of two diagnostic tests and a questionnaire, the results of the corpus study were confirmed, and think was also identified as a verb that can take over the negation from a dependent clause.
Authigenic biotite from hydrothermally altered terrigenous sediments of the Central Hill (Escanaba Trough, Gorda Ridge, Pacific Ocean, hole ODP 1038B)

Published: August 2024

For the first time, authigenic dispersed biotite was discovered in Pleistocene terrigenous sediments of the Central Hill, located in the Escanaba Trough in the southern part of the Gorda Ridge (northeastern sector of the Pacific Ocean), which accounts for almost the entire content of fine fractions 1 μm of some samples from ODP 1038B hole. The authigenic nature of biotite is associated with the metasomatic effect of hydrothermal solution on terrigenous clay minerals after intrusion of basaltic magma in the form of laccolith with a temperature of ~1200°C. The mineral composition of fine fractions of sediments was studied using complex analytical methods, including modeling of their diffraction patterns. It has been established that the dispersed micaceous mineral (biotite) is trioctahedral, high-iron, does not swell when saturated with glycol, but contracts after heating at 550°C. It is shown that in its structure there are no foreign layers, the height and composition of which differ from the micaceous layers. The decrease in the height of micaceous layers upon heating biotite to 550°C is mainly due to a decrease in the height of 2:1 octahedra due to the difference in the Fe2+–O and Fe3+–O bond lengths as a result of the oxidation of Fe2+ cations It has been established a limit value for the coefficient of variation CV, characterizing the absence of mixed-layering in a regular structure, which should not exceed a value of 0.10.

In the context of a global inflationary spike, a retrospective view on the problem of curbing inflation in Brazil is becoming more relevant than ever. This paper aims at analyzing the measures of inflation targeting policies set in motion by the Brazilian economic stabilization plans over the last quarter of the XXth century. The commencement of “The Lost Decade” in Brazil negated the achievements of “The Brazilian Economic Miracle” which occurred in the first half of the 1970s: inflation hit an all-time high. The only viable solution that led Brazil out of the crisis proved to be the stabilization plan - named “The Real Plan” - carried out in three phases: fiscal adjustment, transition to the Real Value Unit and emission of a new currency - the Brazilian Real. The authors confine their attention to how Brazilian experience of taming inflation helps the country suppress current inflation surge.

A spin state of the phenylbon-capped hexa-n-butylsulfide cobalt(II) clathrochelate in solutions was studied by paramagnetic NMR spectroscopy. This cage complex is found to undergo the temperature – induced spin crossover in solvents of different nature (acetonitrile, chloroform, dichloromethane, and benzene). The previously developed method for an analysis of paramagnetic shifts in NMR spectra allows to calculate of the thermodynamic parameters (enthalpy and entropy) of a given spin equilibrium in the solutions. In spite of the conformational rigidity of the macrobicyclic tris-α-dioximate molecules, the substantial changes in their electronic structures and spin crossover parameters were observed, being affected by a polarity of the solvent used. This provides an opportunity for the fine tuning of spin switch characteristics by changing this medium parameter.
Comparative analysis of blood system indicators of three species of immature forest voles under conditions of low autumn temperatures
Authors: Tarakhtii E. A.
Published: August 2024

Quantitative structural and functional indicators of the blood system were studied in immature autumn individuals of closely related species: bank, red, and red-gray voles (18, 11, and 9 individuals, respectively), constituting a reserve population in the autumn–winter period, to assess the adaptive response to low temperature conditions. Interspecies differences in the size of the diffusion surface and the degree of hemoglobinization of erythrocytes, typical for each species, have been identified. The three species of voles with a similar ability to carry oxygen per unit volume of blood have different mechanisms for providing tissues with oxygen. The identified differences in the responses of blood parameters (reticulocytes, erythrocyte indices, and leukocyte composition) reflect the physiological mechanism of maintaining hemoglobin concentration in the blood, being therefore of great importance in solving issues of homeostasis of the body in a changing environment. Based on a set of experimental data, groups of voles (taxonomy) corresponding to the classification of species were identified using discriminant analysis.

Authors: Trush S. M.
Published: August 2024

The summit of the US and China’s leaders in November 2024 resulted in the "small détente" in the bilateral relationship. Biden’s team is motivated to present its China policy as an asset, not a liability, to the American audience. The Chinese leadership pragmatically placed a stake at Biden in the coming dramatic elections in the US. The US and European NATO states are increasing systemic pressure on China, accusing the PRC of military support to Russia.

The research updates issues of strategic planning, determination of prospects, priorities, tasks, as well as means of achieving them in the part of the planned long-term progress of the business entity. It was established that it is possible to implement such plans on the basis of the most progressive modern trends, which are breakthrough innovative technologies, as well as maximum automation of technological processes. However, such changes require adequate adaptation of business management systems and business processes to them. Therefore, the purpose of the research is to justify the priorities and tasks of strategic development of the enterprise on the basis of Industry 5.0 and Management 5.0. The possibilities of harmonizing both strategic vectors - the tasks of developing the corporate structure - are characterized. The tools and means of strategic development of the enterprise on the basis of Industry 5.0 and Management 5.0 are defined. It has been proven that the development of enterprises on the basis of Industry 5.0 provides subjects with a number of strategic advantages, such as high speed and rhythm of production, uninterrupted production and a low level of waste and losses, lower consumption intensity of production, significantly higher financial and economic efficiency of production and economic processes, ease of management, etc. However, such a vector of development requires adaptation of its management system, in other words, a transition to the construction of both the general system and partial management links on the basis of Management 5.0. It was established that such a process involves the implementation of three consecutive stages: (1) changes in the business management system, when the nature of such changes is clearly oriented towards the adaptation of the organizational and management structure to the transition to an automated type of production, increasing the role and significance of innovation management and their financial and investment provision, digitization of the business management system, relevant connections and communications; (2) intensification of the innovative activity of the enterprise, its innovative and technological development and a more active role in the relevant processes of intellectual property objects and patent-licensing activities in general; (3) increasing the volume of business and income and profit, improving the financial and economic condition, capitalization, increasing economic efficiency and using all groups of resource provision. It was concluded that the further development of both Industry 5.0 and Management 5.0 is closely correlated with the coordination of the strategic development priorities of the enterprise and the tasks of these two global trends among themselves.
