ABSTRACTAimSediment disturbances are important threats affecting marine biodiversity, but the variety of biological responses have not yet been synthesized. Here, we collate all available information to compare the extent of impacts across different taxonomic groups, habitat types, and pathways of impact (light attenuation, suspended sediment, and sedimentation). LocationGlobalTime periodData collected from 1979 to 2017Major taxa studied Coral, fish, seagrass, sponge, macroalgae, ascidian, bryozoan, crustacean, echinoderm, mollusc, polychaetaMethodsWe used meta-analyses to evaluate the effects of sediments across 842 observations found in 110 publications. We also evaluated some of the biological and methodological factors that could explain the variable effects observed in different studies.ResultsWe found a significant negative effect of sediments on behavioural responses of species, reproduction and recruitment processes, organism’s morphology, physiology, community abundance and diversity, and species interactions. In contrast, the overall effect on abundance of individual species was statistically non-significant and there was a strong positive effect on abundance for sponge and polychaete species. Many individual studies described physiological effects on coral reefs, but effects on diversity of soft-bottom and coral reef communities were particularly detrimental. Phototrophic species were generally more negatively impacted by sediments than heterotrophs, driven by strong physiological responses in crustose coralline algae and seagrass. Additionally, species with limited mobility were more vulnerable to sediment disturbances than highly mobile species. Sedimentation alone triggered more consistently negative effects on most biological responses than light depletion and suspended sediments. We found evidence for increased impacts on community diversity when more than one pathway of impact was present, indicating that these disturbances can disrupt whole ecosystems. Main conclusionsOur meta-analysis for the first time provided strong quantitative support of negative effects of sediments on marine biodiversity. Taxonomic groups, habitat types, and life history characteristics were most influential in determining biological responses to sediment disturbances, highlighting the importance of an ecosystem-based approach when fully accounting for the impacts of sediments.
Neurocognitive Mechanisms Supporting the Generalization of Concepts Across Languages
Authors: Sheikh Usman Ayub , Carreiras Manuel , Soto David
Published: August 2019

The neurocognitive mechanisms that support the generalization of semantic representations across different languages remain to be determined. Current psycholinguistic models propose that semantic representations are likely to overlap across languages, although there is evidence also to the contrary. Neuroimaging studies observed that brain activity patterns associated with the meaning of words may be similar across languages. However, the factors that mediate cross-language generalization of semantic representations are not known. We here identify a key factor: the depth of processing. Human participants were asked to process visual words as they underwent functional MRI. We found that, during shallow processing, multivariate pattern classifiers could decode the word semantic category within each language in putative substrates of the semantic network, but there was no evidence of cross-language generalization in the shallow processing context. By contrast, when the depth of processing was higher, significant cross-language generalization was observed in several regions, including inferior parietal, ventromedial, lateral temporal, and inferior frontal cortex. These results support the distributed-only view of semantic processing and favour models based on multiple semantic hubs. The results also have ramifications for psycholinguistic models of word processing such as the BIA+, which by default assumes non-selective access to both native and second languages.
Prosocial Preferences Condition Decision Effort and Ingroup Biased Generosity in Intergroup Decision-Making
Authors: Rahal Rima-Maria , Fiedler Susann , De Dreu Carsten
Published: August 2019

Ingroup favoritism and discrimination against outgroups are pervasive in socialinteractions. To uncover the cognitive processes underlying generosity towards in- and out-group members, we employ eye-tracking in two pre-registered studies. We replicate the well- established ingroup favoritism effect and uncover that in-group compared to out-group decision settings are characterized by systematic differences in information search effort (i.e., increased response times and number of fixations, more inspected information) and attention distribution. Surprisingly, these results showed a stronger dependency on the in- vs. outgroup setting for more individualistic compared to prosocial participants: Whereas individualistic decision makers invested relatively less effort into information search when decisions involved out-group members, prosocial decision makers’ effort differed less between in- and outgroup decisions. Therein, choice and processing findings showed some interesting differences, indicating that inferences about the decision process from choices alone can be misleading. Implications for intergroup research and the regulation of intergroup conflict are discussed.

Published: August 2019

Anhedonia is a major public health concern and has proven particularly difficult to counteract. It has been hypothesized that anhedonia can be deterred by engagement in rewarding social and physical events. The aims of the present study were to examine (1) the effects of personalized lifestyle advice based on observed individual patterns of lifestyle factors and experienced pleasure in anhedonic young adults; and (2) whether a tandem skydive can enhance the motivation to carry out the recommended lifestyle changes. Participants (N = 69; Mage = 21.5, SD = 2.0; 79.7% female) were selected through an online screening survey among young adults. Inclusion criteria were persistent anhedonia and willingness to perform a tandem skydive. Participants filled out questionnaires on their smartphones for 2 consecutive months (3 times per day). After the first month, they were randomly assigned to one of three groups: (1) no intervention, (2) lifestyle advice, and (3) lifestyle advice and tandem skydive. The momentary questionnaire data were analyzed using interrupted time series analyses (ITSA) in a multilevel model and monthly pleasure and depression questionnaires by repeated measures ANOVA. No group differences were found in monthly depression and pleasure scores, but the momentary data showed higher positive affect (PA) and pleasure ratings in the month following the intervention in the two intervention groups than in the control group. The tandem skydive did not have any effects above the effects of the lifestyle advice. Our results indicate that providing personalized lifestyle advice to anhedonic young adults can be an effective way to increase PA and pleasure.
Inhibitory and facilitatory cueing effects: Competition between exogenous and endogenous mechanisms
Authors: Lim Alfred , Eng Vivian , Osborne Caitlyn , Janssen Steve M. J. , Satel Jason
Published: August 2019

Inhibition of return is characterized by delayed responses to previously attended locations when the cue-target onset asynchrony (CTOA) is long enough. However, when cues are predictive of a target’s location, faster reaction times to cued as compared to uncued targets are normally observed. In this series of experiments investigating saccadic reaction times, we manipulated cue predictability to 25% (counter-predictive), 50% (non-predictive), and 75% (predictive) to investigate the interaction between predictive endogenous facilitatory (FCEs) and inhibitory cueing effects (ICEs). Overall, larger ICEs were seen in the counter-predictive condition than in the non-predictive condition, and no ICE was found in the predictive condition. Based on the hypothesized additivity of FCEs and ICEs, we reasoned that the null ICEs observed in the predictive condition are the result of two opposing mechanisms balancing each other out, and the large ICEs observed with counter-predictive cueing can be attributed to the combination of endogenous facilitation at uncued locations with inhibition at cued locations. Our findings suggest that the endogenous activity contributed by cue predictability can reduce the overall inhibition observed when the mechanisms occur at the same location, or enhance behavioral inhibition when the mechanisms occur at opposite locations.
Extending the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways at the city scale to inform future vulnerability assessments – The case of Boston, Massachusetts
Authors: Lino Jayne , Rohat Guillaume , Kirshen Paul , Dao Hy
Published: August 2019

Climate change will impact cities’ infrastructure and urban dwellers, who often show differentiated capacity to cope with climate-related hazards. An emerging research field, using the latest global socioeconomic and climate scenarios – namely the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) and Representative Concentration (RCPs) – is exploring how different socioeconomic pathways will influence future society’s ability to cope with climate change impacts. While the SSPs have been extensively used at the global scale, their use at the local and urban scale has remained rare, as they first need to be contextualized and extended for the particular place of interest. In this study, we present and apply a method to develop multi-scale extended SSPs at the city and neighborhood scale. Using Boston, Massachusetts, as a case study, we combined scenario matching, experts’ elicitation, and participatory processes to contextualize and make the global SSPs relevant at the urban scale. We subsequently employed the extended SSPs to explore future neighborhood-level vulnerability to extreme heat under multiple plausible socioeconomic trajectories, highlighting the usefulness of extended SSPs in informing future vulnerability assessments. The large differences in outcomes hint at the enormous potential of risk reduction that social and urban planning policies could trigger in the next decades.

The paper examined governance in Nigeria since 1914, and look at how the executive, legislatures, and the judiciary operate in the country, indeed, the three arms of government are believing to operate as a watchdog to each other. This study is qualitative, the researcher obtained all the relevant and related data from the documented material, the research designed for this paper is a case study approach, it also helps in providing an in-depth understanding of a case where the researcher digs deeply into a phenomenon in obtaining the related literature. To support the paper the researcher adopted pluralism theory to explain the write-up. The postulation of the theory is to examine political actions in modern democratic states. The study found that the northern and the southern region were amalgamated by the British administration for their personal and economic gain, without considering the complex nature heterogeneity nature of the nation. This has created several problems across the nation. Therefore, the study recommended that for peaceful democratic governance all the three arms of government shall have autonomous power to discharge their constitutional responsibilities. No, any arm shall exercise the powers of the other. Again, for Nigeria to live in peace and harmony, and to attain national and economic development there is a need to accept the principle of unity of purpose.

This study aims to analyze the influence of mineral export policy through government regulation No.1 Tahun 2014 and No.1 Tahun 2017. Export policy refers to the government regulation that mining companies must carry out mineral processing in Indonesia before export is carried out. This study compares the value of mining companies before, during, and after the regulation is applied which is analyzed using market performance and accounting performance. The mining companies are listed in Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) period 2011-2017 that has criteria according to UU No.4 Tahun 2009. This study used purposive sampling which had a population of 49 companies with the sampel of 20 companies. The data were processed by using Friedman and wilcoxon analysis. The results of this study indicate that there is a difference in the value of the company due to the policy applied to decrease the value of the company. The decline in the value of the company occurred after the government imposed government regulation No.1 Tahun 2014, after the government regulation was not implemented the value of the company gradually improved. The result of this study shows that the value of Market Performance that has chi square 6.100(p=0.047) is significant.

The system of good governance is able to realize the governance of the country clean and free from Collusion and Nepotism Corruption (UU 28 year1998). One of the steps of the Banjarbaru City Inspectorates to realize Good Corporate Governance is through the transparency of performance accountability of government agencies  in managing regional finances, most of which are funded by public funds. Performance accountability of government agencies presents budget allocations and realization for implementing key tasks in achieving performance indicators. The achievement of this performance indicator can be accounted for and realized through a performance-based budget. However, in its implementation, supervision, control, responsibility and assessment of  performance accountability of government agencies  is needed. This is where the role of the Internal Control System  is in charge of carrying out oversight of the running of the government and the management of financial areas that are clean and responsible. The purpose of this study was to find out whether the Performance Based Budget  and Internal Control System  had an effect on the Performance Accountability of Government Agencies  at Banjarbaru City Inspectorates. The sample used amounted to 39 respondents. The sampling technique is prurposive sampling. The analytical method used in this study is multiple regression analysis. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of the budget, budget reporting, control activities and monitoring (supervision) has an influence on Performance Accountability of Government Agencies . Budget planning, performance evaluation, control environment, risk assessment, information and communication have no effect on Performance Accountability of Government Agencies.

Detrital zircons of Ordovician terrigenous sequences are studied in various Southern Uralian tectonic units.The age of detrital zircons of the West Uralian and Transuralian megazones, Taganai–Beloretsk Zone, and Kraka allochthons spans from the Late Archean to the end of the Vendian– beginning of the Cambrian; Early Precambrian and Early–Middle Riphean zircons are the most abundant. Vendian–Cambrian detrital zircons are strongly dominant in the Uraltau Zone, Sakmara allochthons, and East Uralian Megazone; the zircons of other ages are absent or extremely rare. The Vendian–Cambrian detrital zircons of all Southern Urals zones probably derive from volcanic and granitic rocks of the marginal continental belt, which are part of the Uraltau Zone, Sakmara allochthons, and East Uralian Megazone. The Lu–Hf isotopic characteristics of Vendian–Cambrian detrital zircons indicate that their parental rocks formed on a heterogeneous basement that includes blocks of juvenile and ancient continental crust. According to a model of the pre-Ordovician tectonic evolution of the Southern Urals, at the end of the Late Riphean, the passive margin of the East European Platform collided with a block on a heterogeneous basement. The formation of the block terminated with the Grenville Orogeny. After collision, a volcano-plutonic belt originated in the Vendian–Cambrian at the actively evolved margin of the East European Platform.

Published: August 2019

In this study, NaCl at varrious concentrations of 4 – 10 g/L was used to investigate the salt tolerance of in vitro shoot cuttings of Chrysanthemum indicum. Morphological, physiological and biochemical changes during the response of shoot cuttings in the salinity stress were analyzed. NaCl at 6 g/L reduced the development of shoot cuttings. Under salinity stress conditions, there have just a little reduction of the chloroplast in parenchymal cells near the midrib of leaf before they turn brown and die. Besides, carotenoid, starch content, and photosynthesis intensity were decreased. In contrast, respiration rate, proline and total soluble sugar content, and the activity of IAA and gibberellin were strongly increased. The application of IAA 0.25 mg/L, zeatin 0.1 mg/L and GA3 0.1 mg/L improved the shoot development in the salinity stress condition. Shoots in MS medium supplemented with BA 0.2 mg/L, NAA 2 mg/L and NaCl 6 g/L grow better in salinity stress condition.

Global average infertility rate is about 6– 12%, and in Vietnam at around 7.7%. As a result, there is a high demand for treatment, especially for female infertility. In vitro maturation (IVM) was evaluated and proven to be the most popular and promising at the moment. In long-term cultivation, the follicle was observed to extend, therefore, the usage of a supporting frame is quite necessary to maintain follicle’s natural sphere structure as well as completing the mature process. Amniotic membrane is an avascular membrane, composed of collagen, fibronectin, nidogen, proteoglycan, containing a big number of growth – factors with antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, low immunogenicity and viscoelasticity properties. Amniotic hydrogel owns structure formed with thin fibers to help preserve the main component as collagen, which can turn to gel form at 37 degree Celsius. With those properties, amniotic hydrogel showed high potential as a scaffold for the follicle. When amniotic hydrogel is used as a scaffold for cultivating of secondary follicle (100 – 130 µm), the size of oocyte and follicle increased after 12 days of culturing, along with the formation of antrum. The results demonstrated the possibility to use amniotic hydrogel as a scaffold for the development of the secondary follicle.
Structures and stability of closo-hydroborate dianions BnHn2– (n = 5-12) from the PSM model

Published: August 2019

In this theoretical study, the structures and energetic properties of several closohydroborate dianions BnHn2– (n = 5-12) were systematically investigated employing the B3LYP functional in conjunction with the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set. Global equilibrium geometries were determined, and the growth mechanism is established. Several thermodynamic parameters including the one-step fragmentation energy, the second-order difference in energy, and the HOMO– LUMO energy gap were also computed to evaluate their stability pattern. Computed results show that among investigated species B6H62– and B12H122– are exceptionally stable with closed-shell electronic structures. Their valence electrons generate magic numbers which could be understood by using the phenomenological shell model. The B6H62– with 26 itinerant electrons has an octahedral form ground state (Oh symmetry) and a closed electronic configuration, i.e. 1S2/1P6/2S2/1D10/2P6. Similarly, the anion B12H122– with 50 mobile electrons, which favors an icosahedron (Ih symmetry), also has a closed 1S2/1P6/2S2/1D10/2P6/1F14/2D10 electron shell. Therefore, these systems bear the highly symmetric conformations and constitute the exceedingly stable members of the series examined.

Evaluating the Impact of Social Entrepreneurship: A Multi-criteria Approach
Authors: Benjumea Arias Martha Luz , Arango-Botero Diana
Published: August 2019

Despite the importance of social entrepreneurship acknowledged in the literature, this field is still at a conceptual stage because the implementation and support of initiatives that solve social issues and achieve common benefits is not the full picture of the social impact and the structural changes that enable the dynamization of national economies. Therefore, the promotion of this type of entrepreneurship requires a framework based on leadership training and instruments that support the management to accurately measure their progress and results. This work is derived from an analysis of social entrepreneurship and the prioritization of variables to evaluate its social impact. Expert Choice, a piece of software based on an Analytic Hierarchy Process (APH), was used for the multi-criteria multi-goal analysis. The result was weighing the criteria expressed as qualitative responses, which makes the evaluation more flexible to respond to the needs and features of the types of social entrepreneurship.
