Understanding the Factors at Play in the Sender-Receiver Dynamic During the Telepathy Ganzfeld
Authors: Pooley Abby , Murray Aja , Watt Caroline
Published: April 2023

Objective. To use meta-analysis to explore five previously uninvestigated factors related to the sender-receiver dynamic in the telepathy ganzfeld. The five factors of interest are: a) did the receiver see the sender’s room prior to the session?; b) could the sender hear the receiver during the mentation period?; c) could the sender hear the receiver during the judging period?; d) was the sender explicitly told to be silent?; and e) did the experimenter assist in the review section of the session? Method: Telepathy ganzfeld studies conducted post Joint Communiqué, with one session per day and the receivers rating the targets, were chosen. Two mixed-effects models were fit: 1) using the study hit rates as the binomial mean; and 2) using the study hit rates as a proportion. Both models have the five factors as binary moderators. Results: Both the binomial mean and proportion models suggest a significant effect of the moderators overall and two factors individually: 1) the sender being able to hear the receiver during the mentation period; and 2) a review period after the mentation period. Permutation tests for both models also show significant effects of the moderators and the two factors. Conclusion: The sender being able to hear the receiver’s mentation appears to increase overall study success, while the review period decreases overall study success
Performing Artists and Anomalous Experiences
Authors: Thomson Paula , Jaque Sarah Victoria
Published: April 2023

Objective: To evaluate the relations of anomalous experiences with five overexcitabilities, cumulative trauma exposure, and Beyond the Personal creative process, with samples of performing artists, athletes, and control participants. Method: This is a cross-sectional study (N = 454) in which participants were administered in one session five self-report instruments to assess the five overexcitability dimensions, past childhood adversity and trauma events, creative experiences, and anomalous experiences. Analyses included inter-instrument and intergroup analyses, with a regression analysis that focused only on performing artists (n = 248), and a moderation analysis to determine a moderating effect of cumulative trauma on other variables. Results: Results showed that, compared to athletes and controls, performing artists had greater overexcitabilities, higher Beyond the Personal creative experiences, and more anomalous experiences, but no differences in cumulative trauma. Imaginational overexcitability, cumulative trauma, Beyond the Personal creative experience, and emotional overexcitability explained 32% of the variance in anomalous experiences in the performing artists group. The moderation analysis did not reach significance.  Conclusion: The findings in this study suggest that a desire to create works that expand Beyond the Personal, coupled with elevated overexcitability factors, relate to greater sensitivity and awareness of novel and unusual experiences, including anomalous experiences.
The Definitive Account of Early Mediumship
Authors: Cardeña Etzel
Published: April 2023

Following his acclaimed earlier study on mediumship and survival, Alan Gauld provides a more complete account of about 50 years of early studies on mediumship with a select group of mediums (e.g., Mrs. Piper, Mrs. Leonard, Mrs. Dowden). He describes in detail why many if not most of the criticisms against extraordinarily accurate accounts by these mediums do not hold water when analyzed in detail. Gauld does not provide easy answers, but in his masterwork does something much more important by offering a justification to those who may want to base their belief of potential survival on empirically defensible grounds.

Is happier music groovier?: The influence of emotional characteristics of musical chord progressions on groove
Authors: Kawase Satoshi
Published: April 2023

Specific rhythmic patterns in music have been reported to induce an urge to move with feelings of pleasure or enjoyment, called “groove.” However, it is unclear how the emotional characteristics of music (e.g., happiness or sadness) affect groove. To address this issue, we investigated the effects of the emotional characteristics of music on groove by altering the chord progressions of a drum break composed by a professional composer while manipulating independent tempo and rhythmic patterns. An online listening experiment was conducted using pieces composed by a professional composer but comprising different types of chord progressions that lead to happiness or sadness. Participants evaluated the items on a 7-point scale, including subjective groove. Items included “urge to move,” among others. The experiment found that: 1) chord progressions that evoke happiness were more likely to induce groove, 2) emotional characteristics did not interact with tempi and syncopation in terms of groove ratings, and 3) the accompaniment of drum breaks enhanced groove in both happy and sad chord progressions. Musical pieces with chord progressions that induce happiness were more likely to evoke groove, namely, the urge to move. This implies that it is important to consider the emotional characteristics of musical pieces and rhythms when creating music for movement during rehabilitation, therapy, or dance.

Workers of wooden furniture is the workers who are at risk for decreased lung function caused by exposure to wood dust in the working environment. Wood dust will enter the respiratory organs, thereby affecting lung function. Decreased pulmonary function can be seen by the method of Harvard Step Test. This research aims to analyse the relationship between age, working period, nutritional status, smoking habits, long exposure to dust, and use of personal protective equipment with lung function in wooden furniture workers in Oesapa Village, Kelapa Lima Sub District, Kupang City. The study was analytic survey with Cross Sectional approach. This research was conducted in the wood furniture industry in Oesapa Vilage, Kelapa Lima District, Kupang City in July 2020. The population in this study were 33 workers of wooden furniture. Data collection was done by questionnaire, weight measurement, height measurement and the Harvard Step Test to determine the level of lung fitness workers. Data analysis technique used is the Chi Square test with level of significance 𝑎 = 0,05. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between age (0.002), working period (0.023), nutritional status (0.039), and use of personal protective equipment (0.016) with lung function in workers of wooden furniture. There is no relationship smoking habits (0.093), long exposure to dust (0.057) and lung function in workers of wooden furniture. He use of personal protective equipment is related to lung function, therefore it is recommended that furniture owners provide masks and advise workers to use masks while working. In addition, doing regular exercise to maintain body fitness can increase lung function capacity. To reduce the amount of wood dust, before starting the production process, it is expected to do a wet system or watering the work environment.

Mapping the royal road to science: Towards a heuristic for interpreting experimental evidence
Authors: Gruijters Stefan L.K.
Published: April 2023

The pure experiment is considered the gold standard to those pursuing a good test of a causal hypothesis. Because of this status, one might forget that experimental results tend to allow multiple explanations like other designs. But how to identify plausible, alternative causal explanations for experimental findings? In psychology, the seminal work by Campbell and colleagues on experimental causal inference (i.e., their taxonomy of internal, external, statistical conclusion, and construct validity) has been a longstanding pillar of the discipline. Extending construct validity theory, Campbell et al. also deal with the construct validity of manipulations. The current paper posits that construct validity theory does not sufficiently facillitate the identification of alternative causal explanations and is therefore in need of elaboration. By deconstructing construct validity theory into a set of causally specified assumptions, this paper hopes to show that the development and evaluation of alternative causal hypotheses can be made more rigorous. In particular, this paper posits that changing perspective from validity as a question about “the correctness of a theoretical label” to one about the “causal relationship between instruments (measures and manipulations) and psychological attributes” benefits the interpretation of experimental findings. After describing several considerations about measures and manipulations in a causal language, the paper proposes a simple heuristic—the experimental causal inference square (ECIS). The ECIS can serve as a conceptual tool for thought, intended for the basic researcher to interpret experimental evidence and identify alternative explanations.

Authors: Roy Saurabh , Raj Pritam , Yadav Karnika
Published: April 2023

INTRODUCTION: Oral and pharyngeal cancer, grouped together, is the sixth most common cancer in the world. Oral cancer also has a significant impact on individual patient quality of life and substantial patient treatment costs, often due to late presentation when the disease is at an advanced stage. Primary prevention to increase awareness of risk factors and the early signs and symptoms for oral cancer is proposed. There is clear lack of awareness and attribution of oral malignancies and risk factors in general public. So, the study aims to assess public awareness in patients visiting a Tertiary Medical Center. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This descriptive cross sectional study was conducted in Outpatient department of Dental department at Nobel Medical College Teaching Hospital in Biratnagar, Nepal. A total of 120 participants both male and female above 18 years of age were participants in the study, consisting of smokers, non-smokers and former smokers. Data were analysed by descriptive statistics like mean and percentage. RESULTS: Out of total 120 participants, 60% belonged to age group of 18-29 years whereas 30% belonged to age group 30-40 years. 75% of the participants were married. 15% of the participants were uneducated and 40% had education upto high school. 70% of the participants had heard of oral cancer and the main source of information on oral cancer was television 45(45%) as compared to other sources of information. Out of total study subjects 75% were tobacco chewers, 55% were alcohol consumers while 75% of the study population had knowledge of early signs of oral cancer. CONCLUSIONS: This study highlights the inadequacy of knowledge about oral cancer in general population. It is highly recommended that mass media campaigns with government funded programs and private medical institutions should run oral cancer programs in timely intervals.

Published: April 2023

INTRODUCTION: Around the world, HIV/AIDS infects nearly half of all victims of AIDS-related illnesses. In Somalia, 10,500 persons are thought to be living with HIV/AIDS. A 500-person estimate of children who are HIV-positive is also available. According to estimates, only 35% of HIV-positive persons go to ART centres for their medicine due to lack of awareness. Therefore, this study was designed to assess level of awareness about HIV/AIDS among people living in Galmudug, Somalia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional design was used to assess the degree of HIV and AIDS awareness among residents of Galmudug, Somalia. The study population consisted of reproductive-aged males and females (15 to 45 years old), and respondents were drawn using a purposive sampling technique. The structured questionnaire was developed to collect the information by interview method. A descriptive and inferential statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS version 25 software. RESULTS: This study found that most Somalians had moderate-to-adequate knowledge about HIV/AIDS (57.8%), whereas 42.2% had poor knowledge. A total of 274 (78.3%) of the samples showed a poor attitude toward HIV/AIDS, while 76 (21.7%) displayed a positive attitude toward the disease. An association was also found between marital status (χ2 = 10.07, p< 0.05) and education level (χ2 = 29.55, p< 0.05) and knowledge of HIV/AIDS. In relation to attitude towards awareness of HIV/AIDS, demographic variables (marital status, age, occupation, and education) were significantly associated. CONCLUSIONS: The community needs to provide factual and precise knowledge of HIV/AIDS through aggressive awareness and door-to-door campaigns on the prevalence of the virus.
Интернет как особая сфера бытования современного исполнителя классической музыки
Authors: Bakirova K. S.
Published: April 2023

The article is devoted to the influence of the technical revolution on the development and functioning of classical music. The professional activity of modern classical music performers is strongly dependent on technical devices that became widespread in the twentieth century, when audio and video recordings became an integral part of society. The audience of the XXI century was replenished with generations of millennials and centinials who grew up surrounded by digital technologies, for whom the digitization of culture is a natural phenomenon, and acquaintance with samples of musical art on electronic platforms is comfortable. The principles of replication and transformation of unique works of art into mass production, the technical simplicity of creating and distributing amateur works on the Internet, have formed a special alternative virtual music environment. It operates according to its own rules, laws, algorithms and business models. The audience's interest in performers is measured by new categories — the number of likes and views. With the development of the Internet, Internet bloggers began to play a significant role in shaping public opinion, broadcasting their opinions to subscribers. Any technological revolution leads to changes in the social plan and the emergence of new values, as well as the necessity and inevitability of external and internal modernization of culture.
Русская философия музыки и опыт феноменологического восприятия: синестезия и психоделика
Authors: Boruta E. V.
Published: April 2023

The main object of the article is a philosophical interpretation of the phenomenon of musical synesthesia from the point of view of the philosophy of music by N. O. Lossky and the phenomenology of M. Merleau-Ponty. The original experience of listening to music by S. A. Kuryokhin is taken as an example. The first part of the work describes the tradition and formation of the Russian philosophy of music, and as a further research instrument, the main aspects of the philosophy of music by N. O. Lossky and the phenomenology of M. Merleau-Ponty are considered. Special attention is paid to three modes of intuitive knowledge: sensual, intellectual and mystical. Lossky writes that the first two modes are located and work in the world, while the mystical intuitive mode transgresses into the Superworld. A similar scheme of perception can be traced in the existential phenomenology of M. Merleau-Ponty. The state of this transgression, transsubjectivity, musical synesthesia can be traced in the theurgic synesthesiс music of A. N. Scriabin. In this context, the musical phenomenon of S. A. Kuryokhin is considered, especially his album “Sparrow Oratorium”, which, inherits the traditions of synesthesia, transgresses it to another level — the level of psychedelia, metanoia, schizophrenic psychosis. Kuryokhin's music evokes an experience where emptiness becomes the center of being, where, due to the death of the ego and rebirth, a person finds his true essence.

However, for the skilled music practitioners, such correlation is not obvious. The author propose a definition of the term musician, based on the concept of musical cognitive status. The purpose is to provide the adequate support and refinement of the experiment design procedures for the cross-disciplinary researches, dealing with selection of music stimuli material, conceptual theoretical foundations, and cultural-dependent cognitive backgrounds of the participants. The author considers that music cognition of performers is framed by the specific music idea, represented in the acoustically certain sound image, transformed to the appropriate gesture. This clear image is generated successfully when the performer has a clear artistic idea of musical sense and content. The specific types of perception determine the content-consuming habits. The degree of perceptual accessibility of sounding musical phenomena is also determined by the peculiarities of both musical and linguistic perception matrix, rooted in culture. In order to avoid the waste of research resources, author considers several investigation paths, coming from the methodology of philosophic anthropology, focused on the cultural and language-dependent dimension of music discourse.
Волшебная опера-балет «Млада» Н.А. Римского-Корсакова. Опыт анализа в контексте коммуникативной теории
Authors: Lyutaeva M. S.
Published: April 2023

The opera “Mlada” occupies a special place in the work of the Russian “composer-storyteller” N. A. Rimsky-Korsakov. According to him, it is a “study” for a more successful opera “Sadko”. Despite the fact that the composer himself and critics noted the dramatic weakness of the libretto, the artificiality of intrigue and the absence of lively characters, the opera-ballet “Mlada” is unique in its genre, requiring the use of musical and choreographic means, stands out for its orchestral coloring in the depiction of the fantastic, magical and folk, “the world of the Slavs” and the world of other cultures, the picturesque music, the system of leitmotifs. B. V. Asafiev considered “Mlada” “undeservedly forgotten”, full of pictorialism, enchanting, valuable for its spectacular and musical side and unique symphony. Within the framework of the festival “Rimsky-Korsakov–175” (2019), “Mlada” was characterized by V. A. Gergiev as “a very expensive project”, the actualization of which is due to the fact that "we have gaps in the national repertoire". This study offers an attempt to apply modern philosophical approaches to the analysis of this work. It is proposed to understand this work as communication in the interpretation of N. Luhmann (the unity of information, message, understanding), which is encoded in accordance with the goals of success within the subsystem of art. The method of analysis of differences (i.e. forms, techniques used by the author) within the opera is used, as well as comparison with the cultural context of the historical period. The opera-ballet “Mlada” is considered in the context of the network of communications and memory of the system of musical art during its creation, the reception of the original idea of 1872, the theoretical and actual conditions of its composition, which influenced the semantic connotations in it. The involvement of “Mlada” in the system of art, which testifies to its communicative success, is analyzed. Semantic distinctions are revealed: antiquity / modernity; fantasy (fabulous, mythological) / reality; expressibility in language, singing / silence, inexpressibility; Slavic culture (“Rusinism”) / other cultures; realm of light / realm of darkness; world with gods / transcendent Christian God (audience discrimination); loyalty to one's gods / morality; individual / society. U. Eco's method of semiotic analysis is used, which makes it possible to interpret musical forms (leitmotifs, melodies, harmonic solutions) as signs associated with a certain meaning that can be decoded and interpreted.
The Uses of Research: A Case Study in Research and Policy
Authors: Levin Benjamin
Published: April 2023

Abstract: Three case studies of the use of research and evaluation results in a provincial ministry of education are presented. The cases are framed in terms of Cousins and Leithwood (1986) review of the research utilization literature. The factors affecting utilization in each case are analyzed. The cases point to the need for a stronger political orientation in examining research use in organizations. Implications for the study of utilization and for the conduct of useful research are drawn.
Tensions in Trans-cultural Native Education Programs: Hurdles for the Sensitive Evaluator
Authors: Ryan Alan G.
Published: April 2023

Abstract: Trans-cultural native education programs are defined as those which are designed to prepare members of these minority groups to function in the majority culture. These programs operate under a number of tensions or constraints which must be considered during program evaluations. In this paper several tensions which arose during the evaluations of three programs are examined and discussed in the light of what is currently known about cross-cultural evaluations.
The Evolution of the Canadian Forces' Alcoholism Rehabilitation Program Evaluation System
Authors: Brochu Serge , Bardsley John , Roy Jacques
Published: April 2023

Abstract: After a brief description of the Canadian Forces Alcoholics Rehabilitation Program, this paper will describe the evolution of the evaluation system used to measure the program's effectiveness. This evolution could appear to be very long. However, one must keep in mind that the aim of federal departments is not to do research but to provide services to the population. Thus, program evaluation is not a very high priority and must be sold on a day to day basis to the administrators. It is the authors' opinion that a more hurried approach would have caused important resistance to the implementation of program evaluation as an integrated part of the development of new programs.
Participative Evaluations
Authors: Fricke John G. , Gill Raj
Published: April 2023

Abstract: We attempt to develop a “participative” evaluation strategy by integrating the advantages of decision- and consumer-oriented models of evaluation and minimizing their drawbacks. Three aspects of evaluation are examined: the purpose of the evaluation, stakeholdership, and the relation between evaluation and planning. We then explore the contribution each of these areas can make to an integrated strategy of program evaluation. We conclude that a participative model of evaluation is possible, provided that it is firmly linked to the organization's decision and planning process, and that stakeholders are willing to reach beyond traditional concerns with program impact.
The Estimation of Net Income Redistribution from Three Federal Child Benefit Programs
Authors: Overstreet R. Edward , Auger Édouard
Published: April 2023

Abstract: A simple random sample of 1982 Federal Income-Tax returns was analyzed to estimate the net redistribution of income arising from Federal Family Allowance payments, Child Tax Credits, Child Tax Exemptions, and an imputation of the incremental tax burden borne by taxpayers to finance these programs. Cross-tabulations are presented by family-income quintile, family type and sex of individual. The impact of adjusting family-income quintile assignments for family size is discussed. The net income redistribution is shown to be progressive with respect to adjusted family income.
Royal Commissions and Task Forces as Mechanisms of Program Review
Authors: Aucoin Peter
Published: April 2023

Abstract: Notwithstanding the development of the functions of and structures for program evaluation and external audit, Canadian governments continue to use royal commissions and task forces as temporary mechanisms for ad hoc, special program reviews. This paper analyses the reasons for the continued use of these temporary organizations and assesses their advantages and disadvantages in organizational terms. The criteria used in this assessment include independence, objectivity and organizational learning.
Quantifying Qualitative Decision Trees for Multi-Respondent Decision-Making: Theory and a Program Evaluation Application
Authors: Roskin Rick , Redlack Austin
Published: April 2023

Abstract: A method for quantifying qualitative decision trees is presented and applied within a program evaluation setting. The approach combines Likert type scales with decision trees and develops a mathematical curve based on the associated set of means and standard deviations. Depending upon where the respondent's result plots, one of six different decision conditions are suggested.
