Improved estimation of autoregressive models through contextual impulses and robust modeling
Authors: Adolf Janne , Ceulemans Eva
Published: November 2022

The aim of the dynamic paradigm of affect research is to characterize daily life affective processes by means of intense longitudinal data and dynamic, typically autoregressive-type models. The contextual conditions accompanying and potentially influencing affective processes obviously form an important part of the picture. Especially distinct contextual events – ranging from salient daily events to major life events – are regularly assessed and their effects modelled. Such an explicit approach to studying context can however reach its limits, if relevant events are hard to define, measure or model. In that case one finds oneself in a situation where contextual events play out as hidden contaminators possibly obscuring the affective process of interest. Interestingly, specific forms of such contamination can also have beneficial effects in that they can trigger autoregressive dynamics and leverage their estimation. In this paper we take a closer look at this phenomenon focusing on events that exert short-lasting main effects on affective processes. We also demonstrate that robust autoregressive models have the capacity to outperfom classical models given this and other forms of contextual contamination as they not only capitalize on positive leverage effects but also mitigate the negative obscuring effects contextual events might have.

Published: November 2022

Objective. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) remains a growing public health challenge across the globe and is associated with negative and persistent long-term consequences. The last decades of research identified different mechanisms associated with the development and persistence of PTSD, including maladaptive coping strategies, cognitive and experiential avoidance, positive, and negative metacognitions. Despite these advances, little is known about how these different processes interact with specific PTSD symptoms, and how they influence each other over time at the within-person level. Method. Leveraging a large (N > 1,800) longitudinal dataset representative of the Norwegian population during the COVID-19 pandemic, this pre-registered study investigated these symptom-process interactions over an eight-month period. Results. Our panel graphical vector autoregressive (GVAR) network model revealed the dominating role of substance use to cope in predicting higher levels of PTSD symptoms over time and increases in PTSD symptomatology within more proximal time-windows (i.e., within six weeks). Threat monitoring was associated with increased suicidal ideation, while threat monitoring itself was increasing upon decreased avoidance behavior, greater presence of negative metacognitions, and higher use of substances to cope. Conclusions. Our findings speak to the importance of attending to different coping strategies, particularly the use of substances as a coping behavior in efforts to prevent PTSD chronicity upon symptom onset. We outline future directions for research efforts to better understand the complex interactions and temporal pathways leading up to the development and maintenance of PTSD symptomatology.

Published: November 2022

One of the signature features of the American response to the COVID-19 pandemic has been the degree to which perceptions of risk and willingness to follow public health recommendations have been politically polarized. This paper will succinctly review research showing that every phase of the pandemic and key policies were polarized, including judgments of risk, spatial distancing, mask wearing, and vaccination. We will describe the role of political ideology, partisan identity, leadership, misinformation, and mass communication in this public health crisis. We will then assess the overall impact of polarization on the progression of the pandemic, offer a analysis of key policy questions, and identify a set of research questions for scholars and policy experts. Finally, we will include policy recommendations for avoiding the same mistakes in future public health crises
Parental job loss and children’s well-being: The role of unemployment duration, reemployment, and socioeconomic status
Authors: Jensen Simon Skovgaard , Kühhirt Michael , Weiss Felix
Published: November 2022

We examine the effect of parental job loss on children’s well-being at ages 6 to 9 and address whether the effect depends on subsequent unemployment duration, reemployment, and the socioeconomic status of the parent. The analysis is based on a mandatory school well-being survey, which is answered by the children and conducted annually in Danish public schools (2014-2019) linked to administrative register data (193,124 children). A child-level fixed effect model is used to adjust for time-constant confounders. Our results suggest that parental job loss in itself has a limited impact on children’s well-being. Yet, the results suggest that children of fathers who did not find reemployment, and experienced prolonged unemployed had a reduction in well-being. Moreover, the results indicated that children of mothers with higher socioeconomic status were negatively affected by maternal job loss, while children of lower-status fathers were more negatively affected by paternal job loss.
Designing Political Order
Authors: Abramson Scott F , Awad Emiel , Kenkel Brenton
Published: November 2022

Social scientists and political philosophers widely believe that the foundations of political order rest upon the existence of a sovereign agent endowed with a monopoly of coercive force. In this paper, we develop a formal model of anarchic competition and show that whenever it is possible to construct a peaceful political order based upon a monopoly of force, it is also possible to construct one where multiple agents maintain coercive abilities. What is more, we show that peaceful orders with multiple violence specialists generally require lower coercive investments than peaceful orders with a single violence specialist. This undercuts the notion that monopolistic domestic politics are inherently more efficient than the competitive international system. Nevertheless, we identify why inefficient monopolies of violence might persist --- any individual agent's payoff is maximized when she serves as a monopolist that invests more in coercion than is strictly necessary to maintain peace.
Environmental Change and Migration Aspirations: Evidence from Bangladesh
Authors: Koubi Vally , Freihardt Jan , Rudolph Lukas
Published: November 2022

The argument that environmental change is an important driving force of migration has experienced a strong revival in the climate change context. We examine whether and how different environmental stressors aspire people to move. The analysis relies on newly collected, cross-sectional survey data of 1594 households residing in 36 villages along the 250 kilometers of the Jamuna River in Bangladesh – an area affected primarily by floods and riverbank erosion. The results show that long-term environmental events, i.e., riverbank erosion, increase aspirations for internal, permanent migration, while short-term environmental events, i.e., floods, do not affect migration aspirations. These results suggest that depending on the type of environmental change, people might prefer migrating rather than staying put and thus, they entail important policy implications regarding the effects of climate change on future internal migration flows.

Authors: Paramita Elisa , Rifardi Rifardi , Feliatra Feliatra
Published: November 2022

The purpose of this study is to determine the rate of shoreline change and the level of abrasion in Bukit Batu District, Bengkalis Regency, Riau Province based on several physical variables in the coastal area. End Point Rate (EPR) is a method that can be used to calculate the rate of shoreline change by displaying transects according to their category (high abrasion, medium abrasion, low abrasion, stable, and accretion). From 1991-2021 there was an abrasion of ±139.71 meters equivalent to ±4.65 m/year which mostly occurred in Sukajadi Village and Pangkalan Jambi Village, while accretion of ±27.51 meters equivalent to ±1.58 m/year mostly occurred in Pakning Asal Village and Sejangat Village. Moderate abrasion is the predominant type. Sukajadi and Pangkalan Jambi are villages that have experienced high levels of abrasion. The area affected by abrasion has moderate and fast currents as well as coastal protection in the form of mangroves, most of which have been damaged and require repairs. Therefore, the main factors causing the abrasion are thought to be the lack of coastal protection and high-speed currents and waves flowing from the Malacca Strait.

Subsurface Marine Heatwaves of South Java Sea: Trend, Frequency, Duration, and Cumulative Intensity Based on Assimilation Model
Authors: Azuga Nabila Afifah , Radjawane Ivonne M.
Published: November 2022

Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are extreme warming events in the ocean when the temperature detected is above the 90th percentile of climatological temperature for at least five consecutive days. MHWs events can extend up to thousand kilometers and have been detected in the subsurface layer. MHWs are described by metrics (frequency, duration, and cumulative intensity). The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of MHWs in the subsurface layer for 27 years (1993-2019). The data used in this study is the sea water temperature data of the depth 0,4-763m from Marine Copernicus Global Ocean Physics and Niño 3.4 indices. The method used in this study is a statistical method to calculate the average and trend of the MHWs metric. The results of this study denotes that the occurrence of MHWs at a depth of 0.4-92m is caused by ENSO (El Niño Southern Oscillation) positive phase (El Niño) with a delay of 5-7 months and at a depth of 109-763m caused by negative phase ENSO (La Niña) with a delay of 1-3 months. It was also found that the frequency of MHWs was higher at a depth of 418-763m with a maximum value is 2.6 events/year, the duration of MHWs was greater at a depth of 0,4-77 m, with a maximum value of duration is 30 days/year, and the maximum cumulative intensity of MHWs events for 27 years is 90˚C. During the 1993-2019, the trend of frequency, duration, and cumulative intensity of MHWs in the South Java Sea has significantly increased

Authors: LEGODİ-RAKGALAKANE Kentse , MOKHAMPANYANE Matsolo
Published: November 2022

This research evaluates educators’ experiences and practices of Inclusive Education in primary schools in South Africa. The educators who serve as role models, nevertheless, do not seem to truly grasp the idea of Inclusive Education. The study used a qualitative research approach based on the interpretative research paradigm to investigate educators' understanding, experiences, and practices of Inclusive Education. The fourteen participants, who included two school principals, two deputy principals, five teachers, and five members of the school-based support team, were chosen through a purposeful sampling process. Five primary schools in the Warmbaths region in Limpopo Province were used to select the participants. With each participant, semi-structured one-on-one interviews were conducted. Thematic analysis was done to examine and analyse the data. The findings showed the varying perspectives on Inclusive Education, including views based on children's rights, abilities and disabilities, and quality, equity, and fairness for all children. This is further shown by the lack of improvement in stakeholders’ ability to recognise learners who experienced barriers to learning. Educators lack adequate knowledge to implement Inclusive Education successfully. In addition, it was discovered that teaching an inclusive class was quite demanding on educators regarding planning, organising, and curriculum delivery. This study suggests that educators should use a combination of traditional teaching methods and digitally mediated learning to effectively meet the needs of all students, regardless of their learning abilities. Furthermore, educators should be provided with continuous professional development to empower them to meet the educational expectations of all learners.
Clinical and Prognostic Analysis of Adult Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Authors: Chen Bao-An , Shi Zheng , Chen Bao-An
Published: November 2022

Objective: To analyse clinical characteristics of adult patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and explore prognostic factors to provide evidence for the stratification of prognostic risk and the formulation of individualized therapy.
Methods: A total of 65 adult patients with newly diagnosed ALL were reviewed. Their clinical data were collected, and their overall survival was followed up. We compared the effects of different clinical features on therapeutic efficacy and long-term prognosis. Data analysis was conducted by SPSS 25.0 statistical software. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: A total of 65 adult patients with newly diagnosed ALL, including 31 males and 34 females, were enrolled in this study, with a median onset age of 48 (range, 18-85) years. After 1 course of induction therapy, bone marrow puncture was performed to evaluate, and further demonstrate that 49 patients achieved complete response (CR), with a total CR rate (CRR) of 75.4%. Among 65 patients, the median overall survival was 15.5 (range,1.0-100.0) months, and the median disease-free survival was 9.0 (range, 0.0-99.0) months. Survival analysis showed that worse long-term outcome was associated with age (≥60 years), haemoglobin (Hb<60g/L), platelet (PLT<30×109/L), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH≥400U/L) at initial diagnosis, CD10 negative, and failure to reach CR within 4 weeks after induction therapy, whereas timely hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) significantly improved the survival of patients. Univariate analysis suggested that age at onset, the initial level of low PLT and high LDH, and HSCT were risk factors for 2-year OS and 2-year DFS of adult ALL patients. Moreover, multivariate analysis showed that initial PLT level was an independent risk factor for the prognosis of adult ALL patients, and CR within 4 weeks after induction and HSCT could improve patients’ overall survival.
Conclusion: Long-term outcome for adult ALL patients is poor. Clinical characteristics, including elder age, severe anemia, low PLT level, high LDH level, CD10 negative and so on, make poor clinical induction effect on such patients. However, achieving CR within 4 weeks and actively accepting HSCT can significantly improve the prognosis of adult ALL.

We examined child-, family-, and school-level risk and resilience factors associated with dropout using longitudinal data of fifth-grade students in rural Côte d’Ivoire (N=1195, Mage=10.75, SDage=1.42). Children who dropped out were older, involved in more child labour, had poorer literacy, owned fewer books, and attended schools with poorer learning environments. Cumulative risk (CR) indices revealed that child-level CR most strongly predicted dropout (b=-0.86, OR=0.42); further, children with low child-level CR were more likely to drop out when family-level CR was high (b=0.23, OR=1.25). Better school infrastructure and teachers were protective for children who were at high risk of dropout yet remained enrolled. Although child- and family-level factors contribute to risk of dropout, school-level factors may mitigate risks and promote academic resilience amongst students in West Africa.
