Functioning of English participles in publicistic texts
Authors: Anosova Anastasiya Aleksandrovna
Published: February 2024

The aim of the research is to identify the most characteristic participial constructions used in publicistic texts in English. Scientific novelty of the research lies in analyzing the syntactical functions of English participles based on the analytical articles from the English-language media. The syntactical functions of participles in English are described in the paper. After that, the participial constructions that are most frequently used in publicistic texts in English are identified. Then the paper analyzes the features of these constructions in analytical articles. As a result, it has been found that passive forms are the most widely used forms, contributing to the brevity and objective character of publicistic texts. Participles in postposition in the attributive function ascribe the texts to the bookish style. The use of absolute participial constructions allows for the compressive character and information abundance of publicistic texts. Attributive composites with participles are widely used instead of phrases or clauses.
Church Life LIVE!
Authors: Spalová Barbora , Gajdoš Adam
Published: February 2024

The unprecedented halt of social gatherings imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic that began in the spring of 2020 highlighted the centrality of ritual participation in the Christian sense of belonging. Offering members of religious communities opportunities and instruments for sustaining their religiosity became a challenge. This time of crisis, adaptation and improvisation thus also shook what it meant to belong to a community of believers.

Based on pre-pandemic in-person observations, interviews and online ethnography in four Christian communities in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, our paper maps how different approaches to ritual practices during the pandemic affected the available repertoires of belonging to Christianity. Upon discussing the relevance of Hervieu-Léger’s vital types of religiosity (the universalist and independent pilgrim and the particularist and interconnected convert) throughout the pandemic, we conclude that the traditional approach to the church as a place of dwelling, as Wuthnow labelled it, was strengthened most.

Movilidad funcional. Aspectos controvertidos de su regulación
Authors: Iglesias Osorio Brais Columba
Published: February 2024

La movilidad funcional, como mecanismo alternativo a las medidas extintivas, no está obteniendo los resultados esperados. La actuación empresarial en este ámbito ha propiciado una mayor segmentación y diversificación contractual del mercado de trabajo sin que se haya incrementado el nivel de seguridad de empleo y de protección social. La ley estatutaria y los convenios colectivos, especialmente los de las pyme, no establecen una estrategia definida de retención de talento interno a través de un sistema eficiente y sostenido de acceso a la formación que permita la transición entre las distintas formas de contratos encaminados a una movilidad funcional pactada. Por su parte, se requiere una percepción distinta de la movilidad funcional por parte de la persona trabajadora. El cambio de tareas o rotación de puestos de trabajo en la propia empresa de forma colaborativa no deja de ser una excelente herramienta formativa abriendo el espacio a nuevas oportunidades de promoción y de responsabilidad individual.

La flexibilidad interna tras la reforma laboral de 2021
Authors: Castro Franco Ana María
Published: February 2024

La interpretación teleológica de la reforma laboral contenida en el Real Decreto-ley 32/2021, de 28 de diciembre, de medidas urgentes para la reforma laboral, la garantía de la estabilidad en el empleo y la transformación del mercado de trabajo ha mostrado la idea de un cambio radical subyacente en todo el texto normativo. Así, la reforma pretende caminar en dirección contraria a la que ha sido habitual en los últimos tiempos. La recuperación de los derechos laborales y su garantía, junto con el impulso a las medidas de flexibilidad interna como alternativa a las extinciones, son sus principales aportaciones y buscan transformar el mercado de trabajo español para dejar definitivamente atrás sus incoherencias, asegurando la calidad del empleo y el dinamismo del tejido productivo.
La incapacidad temporal desde una perspectiva crítica: ¿Avance o retroceso en los procesos de despido, digitalización o género?
Authors: López Insua Belén del Mar
Published: February 2024

La prestación por incapacidad temporal viene sufriendo, desde sus orígenes, constantes modificaciones y modulaciones tanto en su estructura, como en su funcionamiento y mecánica. Actualmente, la incapacidad temporal se erige en una de las prestaciones más problemáticas y caóticas de todo el sistema de Seguridad Social. Y es que, en torno a esta contingencia se circunscribe dos realidades enfrentadas, de un lado, la sostenibilidad económica de las arcas públicas y, de otro, el mantenimiento de los estados de necesidad ante la imposibilidad transitoria para prestar la actividad profesional habitual. Lamentablemente, la tendencia legislativa ha sido la de endurecer los procesos de incapacidad temporal, lo que ha convertido a ésta en una prestación desnaturalizada y que pone en serio riesgo de duda la misma noción de "trabajo decente" que ya se esboza a nivel internacional y comunitario. Pese a lo expuesto, durante los años 2022 y 2023 se han publicado varias reformas legislativas que han modificado cualitativamente esa tendencia restrictiva. Ciertamente, no se pretende ahora limitar tanto el derecho a la prestación temporal, sino más bien, ampliar el abanico de causas, al tiempo que se modernizan los engorrosos trámites burocráticos que ya venían sufriendo los trabajadores afectados y se le concede un perfil de género. En este trabajo se analizarán críticamente cada una de estas reformas, así como sus efectos prácticos.
Valoración crítica sobre la interpretación de la regulación sobre los sistemas de videovigilancia de seguridad en el trabajo tras la sentencia del Tribunal Constitucional 119/2022, de 29 de septiembre
Authors: Peña Moncho Juan
Published: February 2024

El Tribunal Constitucional publicó el 29 de septiembre de 2022 la sentencia núm. 119/2022, legitimando la redacción del segundo párrafo del artículo 89.1 LOPD. De esta forma, entiende que es válido el despido de un trabajador por vender ilegalmente productos de la empresa, teniendo como prueba del incumplimiento unas grabaciones videográficas. La existencia de dichas grabaciones tan solo había sido informada mediante el cartel informativo que exige el artículo 22.4 LOPD, sin que se comunicase al trabajador expresamente ni de la base jurídica ni de la finalidad del tratamiento. En este trabajo se aborda un comentario crítico en relación con dicho pronunciamiento.
Retos del teletrabajo asociados a la prevención de riesgos laborales desde una perspectiva de género
Authors: Ayerra Duesca Nuria Julia
Published: February 2024

El objeto del presente artículo es realizar un análisis sobre los principales retos que tiene todavía pendientes la Ley 10/2021, de 9 julio, de trabajo a distancia y, concretamente, el teletrabajo, en relación con la seguridad y salud laboral desde una perspectiva de género, con el propósito de evitar que las desigualdades, discriminaciones y roles de género existentes en el trabajo presencial se trasladen al trabajo a distancia o teletrabajo. En consecuencia, se van a poner de manifiesto las deficiencias y dificultades que existen en esta nueva modalidad de prestación del trabajo incorporado en la organización de muchas empresas e impulsada por la pandemia de la Covid-19, acerca de los principales riesgos laborales -cuya exposición a los mismos afectan de manera diferente a mujeres y hombres- como son los riesgos psicosociales, ergonómicos y organizativos, con el fin de detectarlos, prevenirlos y eliminarlos en la medida de lo posible, teniendo en cuenta las necesidades de prevención de riesgos laborales asociadas al teletrabajo en base al principio de igualdad y no discriminación y, por consiguiente, integrando la perspectiva de salud laboral y género.

Attitudes in mathematical discovery processes:
Authors: Danzer Carolin
Published: February 2024

This paper’s purpose is to investigate the attitude of students in mathematical discovery processes in terms of the handling of counterexamples. By understanding this attitude as a kind of scientific attitude, it consists of different aspects that become visible in the behaviour during a mathematical discovery process. Since such a process is particularly complex, the author’s interest is to use the concept of attitude as an explanation for students’ behaviour that occurs when dealing with conflicts such as counterexamples. Semi-structured interviews with sixth graders of a German Gymnasium were conducted and analysed in a qualitative and interpretative way. As a result, the case study of Alex and Milo is presented. Based on the framework that observable behaviour is influenced by an underlying attitude, there are drawn conclusions about Alex’s and Milo’s attitudes adopted in the mathematical discovery process and their impact on the process is elaborated.

Microplastics có nhiều ảnh hưởng đáng kể đến môi trường và sức khỏe. Do đó, để giảm thiểu tác động của microplastics, cần thực hiện các biện pháp như giảm sử dụng nhựa, tái chế và xử lý chất thải một cách hiệu quả./.
The “Gateway” Hypothesis: Evaluation of Evidence and Alternate Explanations
Authors: Selya Arielle
Published: February 2024

Background: Electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) offer a substantial harm reduction opportunity for adults who smoke and are unlikely to quit in the near term. However, a major concern about ENDS is their use by non-smoking youth, and particularly whether ENDS are acting as a “gateway” that leads youth to later start smoking cigarettes. However, evidence for the gateway hypothesis can be interpreted in alternate ways, e.g. that youth who have certain characteristics were already predisposed to use both ENDS and cigarettes (“common liability” explanation). Aims: This Perspective provides an evaluation of the gateway hypothesis that is accessible by a lay audience. This paper first reviews and evaluates the evidence interpreted as supporting the gateway hypothesis. Important alternate explanations (i.e., common liability) are discussed, as are different types of evidence (i.e., population-level trends) that can help differentiate between these competing explanations. Overview: The evidence provided in support of the gateway hypothesis is the finding that youth who use ENDS are more likely to also smoke cigarettes. However, this evidence suffers from an important flaw: these studies fail to fully account for some youths’ pre-existing tendency to use tobacco products, and inappropriately interpret the results as ENDS use causing some youth to smoke. Common liability studies suggest that ENDS use does not, in and of itself, directly cause youth to later smoke cigarettes, beyond their pre-existing tendency to use tobacco. Population-level trends show that youth cigarette smoking declined faster after ENDS use became common, which contradicts the central prediction of the gateway hypothesis (i.e. that youth smoking would be more common following ENDS uptake, than what would otherwise be expected). Conclusion: Evidence offered in support of the gateway hypothesis does not establish that ENDS use causes youth to also smoke cigarettes. Instead, this evidence is better interpreted as resulting from a common liability to use both ENDS and cigarettes. Population-level trends are inconsistent with the gateway hypothesis, and instead are consistent with ENDS possibly displacing cigarettes among youth who already had a tendency to use tobacco products, though more research is needed to support this diversion hypothesis.

Why most journal impact factors are false
Authors: Moustafa Khaled
Published: February 2024

The Journal Impact Factor (JIF) is a widely used metric for ranking journals based on the number of citations garnered by papers published over a specific timeframe. To assess the accuracy of JIF values, I compared citation counts for 20 of my own publications across six major bibliography databases: CrossRef, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Scopus, PubMed, and Publishing journal records. The analysis revealed noteworthy variations in citation counts, ranging from 10% to over 50% between the lowest and highest citation counts. Google Scholar records the highest citation numbers, while PubMed reported the lowest. Notably, Web of Science, whose citation data are used in JIF calculations, tend to underestimate citation counts compared to other databases. These findings raise concerns about the accuracy of JIF calculation, as currently based on Web of Science’s citation data. The real JIF values for most journals would differ from those annually reported by Clarivate's journal citation reports (JCR). These observations underscore the importance of comprehensive data collection and the necessity to include additional citation sources. Clarivate Analytics may need to consider integrating all citation sources for more accurate JIF values. Alternatively, Google Scholar could potentially develop its own journal or citation impact based on its extensive journal citation records.

According to the Behavioural Immune System (BIS) theory, humans are motivated to avoid exposureto harmful pathogens. However, most sources of infection are impossible to avoid completely, leadingto the development of tools to reduce pathogen threat. Condoms are one example of an effective toolthat can be used to avoid exposure to sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Within this framework, itwould be expected that condom use would increase after the spread of a novel coronavirus (i.e.,COVID-19), but the evidence to date is inconsistent. The present study aimed to clarify theseinconsistencies by examining changes in condom use cross-culturally. First, Study 1 aimed to uncoverwhether condom use after the initial outbreak period was consistent with the BIS theory among anAustralian sample (N1 = 129). Contrary to the BIS, but inline with other findings in Australia, therewas a general decline of condom use. Second, Study 2 aimed to examine whether cross-culturalcondom use was consistent with the BIS. Sexually active participants (N2 = 3843) across 17 countrieswere asked about their condom use. Results revealed a significant decline in Canada, Portugal,Vietnam, Uganda, and Taiwan. Vaccination percentage and lockdown stringency were associatedwith this decline cross-culturally. In sum, there was no evidence supporting the BIS theory, and thesefindings continue to add concerns about the spread of STIs among young people during the pandemic.
Accountability Versus Inclusion? The Urgent Need to Evaluate the Effects of “Returned Value” Outcome-Based Funding on College Students with Disabilities: A Call to Action (2018)
Authors: Giwa Onaiwu Morénike
Published: February 2024

Returned-value funding is a relatively new higher education allocations strategy and minimal research has been done on the model since its implementation. Understanding the effects of returned-value funding is critical as students with disabilities are less likely than their non-disabled peers to enroll in college, and when they do enroll they are less likely to graduate. There is no known research that has assessed the impact of a returned-value funding model on enrollment, graduation and placement rates of college students with disabilities. This paper outlines several reasons why assessing the impact of “returned value” outcomes-based higher education funding on students with disabilities at the only college in the nation utilizing this model for 100% of its state-allocated funding is an important human rights issue.

This research paper aims to reduce and minimize the disproportions (overrepresentation or underrepresentation) involved in some Proportional Representation (PR) rules such as D’Hondt Law, applied in the Spanish elections. To do this, we create a system of weighted seats that corrects these deviations. These weighted seats give a proportional allocation of seats in the global realm. Next, we distribute the weights of the parties among the constituencies in a way that minimizes a predetermined measure of disproportionality.
Teaching at the Right Level: From Pre-service Teachers’ Perspective to Design of Teaching Material
Authors: busri Hasan , Ambarwati Ari , Muttaqin Khoirul , Khairunnisa Gusti Firda
Published: February 2024

Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) is a learning approach that facilitates learning according to the ability level of each student. To explore the understanding of pre-service teachers regarding teaching materials with the TaRL approach, researchers conducted qualitative research with the subjects of 9 students from the students of pre-service teachers of Pendidikan Profesi Guru (PPG)/Teacher Professional Program. Teaching materials with the TaRL approach made by the subjects are studied more deeply and measured through 9 indicators of suitability of teaching materials based on the TaRL approach. Furthermore, each subject was interviewed to get more detailed findings regarding the pre-service teacher's understanding of TaRL-based teaching materials. Based on the results of studies and interviews, it was found that all subjects did not make teaching materials that were in accordance with students' abilities and did not make indicators to identify students who needed special handling. Pre-service teachers who understand the concept of TaRL tend to meet all indicators in making teaching materials that are in accordance with TaRL principles. Further research is needed to find gaps in the difficulty of pre-service PPG teachers in formulating teaching materials needed by students according to their perspective levels of understanding.
Rethinking administrative documents' validity to cutoff greenhouse gas emissions by million tons
Authors: Moustafa Khaled
Published: February 2024

Climate change is a multi-hazard challenge for life on earth in all its aspects. Wildfires, pollution, drought and heatwaves are just a few examples of exacerbated environmental crises propelled by climate change effects. To mitigate such effects, urgent actions are required to cutoff greenhouse gas emissions by all the means across all the sectors. Every additional kilogram of greenhouse gases produced unnecessarily should be avoided. One source of greenhouse gas emissions that may not be top of mind for the public and policymakers - and which can be taken into account in preventive environmental policies- is the industry of administrative and identification documents (papers) with short validity dates that involves intensive production (mass printing) and frequent renewals (mass reprinting) while the carbon footprint is too high. The validity of, for example, identity cards, passports, banking cards, driving licenses, etc., is often short ranging from ~ 3 to 10 years, depending on each type of document and issuing country. Short validity dates, however, should raise critical questions regarding the environmental sustainability, societal and carbon impact, and depletion of natural resources used in their production and frequent renewals. Identification documents are not food products that spoil over time or medications that lose their functional activities, so their validity should be unlimited by time in order to avoid the high environmental costs of mass printing/reprinting and high rates of greenhouse gas emissions associated with their production. The production of plasticized ID-type cards can emit up to 100 grams of carbon dioxide equivalent per card. Manufacturing one administrative document per person and renewing it five times could produce up to 4 million tons of carbon dioxide globally. If individuals have five administrative documents that need renewing five times, which is often the case, gas emissions would be five times higher, or approximately 20 million tons of CO2 equivalent. To save such important amounts of gas emissions, a modernization and flexibilization of administrative documents industry is required toward removing validity by date. This simple change could save substantial amounts of energy and natural resources, such as trees and water, while also reducing greenhouse gas emissions by million tons, especially in the pressing context of climate change. It should be time to initiate a paradigm shift in the administrative document industry. Eliminating validity periods is a straightforward yet effective solution that would significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote sustainable environmental practices.
Does gender matter for aid project performance? The case of Asian Development Bank.
Authors: Kaur Jasleen
Published: February 2024

The performance of aid projects matters for development. Yet what shapes performance, is insufficiently understood. According to interdisciplinary research on organizational management and bureaucratic representation, the gender of operational leaders in complex organizations can have a discernible effect on all aspects of the project cycle. To this end, I seek to test whether the gender of aid project staff matters in explaining variation in project performance. I use a self-collected novel dataset from the Asian Development Bank to discern whether project staff’s gender (women vs men project leaders) is associated with project performance. I use multinomial-ordered logistic regressions to test the association of the gender of project managers with project performance measures of relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, and sustainability. I find that projects led by women are, on average, associated with higher performance ratings on dimensions of efficiency. Significant and positive association with the relevance criterion is subject to model specification. However, I do not see an association with the effectiveness and sustainability criterion of project performance. This paper contributes to the literature by estimating the differential impact of women vs men project managers on disaggregated performance measures. It also lays down potential mechanisms and future research discourse
Optimizing AI social chatbots for relational outcomes: The effects of profile design, communication strategies, and message framing
Authors: Zhou Alvin , Tsai Wan-Hsiu Sunny , Men Linjuan Rita
Published: February 2024

With more corporations incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) tools like social chatbots into their public communication practices, we explore optimal chatbot designs for organization-public relational outcomes. Our 2 × 2 × 2 factorial web experiment with eight custom-designed chatbots showed that communication strategies (verbal and non-verbal social cues such as emoji, memes, filler words, and response delay) had a significant impact (Cohen’s d = 0.536, standardized coefficient β = 0.438) on chatbot social conversation, the central antecedent to the investigated relational outcomes such as trust in business. Furthermore, the effect of chatbot social conversation is partially mediated by perceived organizational listening, highlighting the importance of listening and its related theories and practices in automated business communication.
The targetted promoter-reporter screen identifies EEED8.12, the RNA-binding domain protein with developmental and neuronal expression patterns.
Authors: Kapulkin Wadim J
Published: February 2024

We describe the results of the targetted promoter-reporter screen for the transgenic GFP expression patterns of RNA-binding protein genes in C. elegans. Here, we describe EEED8.12, the RNA-binding domain (RRM/RBD/RNP motif; PF00076) protein with distinct developmental and neuronal expression patterns. We contrast the expression pattern of EEED8.12, with four other positively identified candidates. The transgenic GFP expression of rps-3 C23G10.3 (KH type RNA-binding domain; PF07650), puf-9 W06B11.2 (Pumilio-family RNA binding repeat; PF00806), and previously uncharacterized C02B10.4 (RRM/RBD/RNP motif; PF00076) appear as ubiquitously expressed RNA-binding protein genes. The last transgenic pattern we encountered specifies rop-1 C12D8.11. rop-1 encodes the Ro 60 kDa autoantigen ortholog. The Ro 60 kDa autoantigen is an RNA-binding protein, that is recognized by anti-Ro autoantibodies.

Emotional Aftermath of the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election: A Study of Hindsight Bias in Younger and Older Adults
Authors: Kara-Yakoubian Mane , Spaniol Julia
Published: February 2024

While researchers have linked adult age differences in hindsight bias to shifts in cognitive and motivational processes, the association between hindsight bias, emotion, and aging remains relatively underexplored. We examined emotion and hindsight bias in younger and older adults (N = 272) against the backdrop of the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election. Participants predicted electoral college votes for the two Presidential candidates before the election and were asked to remember their predictions approximately three weeks later, after the election results had been finalized. Republicans, for whom the electoral outcome was negatively tinged, exhibited greater hindsight bias for President Biden’s result compared with Democrats, for whom the electoral outcome was positive. The asymmetry in hindsight bias between Republicans and Democrats was similar for younger and older participants. This study suggests that negative emotions may exacerbate hindsight bias, and that adult age differences in hindsight bias observed in laboratory settings may not translate to real-world contexts.
Psychosocial Correlates of Adherence to Mind-Body Interventions
Authors: Duraney Elizabeth , Phansikar Madhura , Prakash Ruchika
Published: February 2024

Objective: Mind-body interventions involve practices that intentionally combine mental and physical fitness, showing promise for improving psychological and cognitive health in older adults. Limited research exists on adherence to these interventions and the demographic and psychosocial factors that may predict variability in compliance. In the current study, we identified key latent predictors (demographic, psychosocial, and cognitive predictors) of adherence to two mind-body interventions. Methods: Baseline and intervention data from a randomized controlled trial of older adults (n = 64) who participated in a four-week mindfulness-based attention training or a four-week health education training were analyzed. Adherence was operationalized as the average weekly, self-reported minutes of homework practice during the intervention. Baseline correlates of adherence included education, sex, working memory, subscales of an emotion dysregulation measure, positive and negative affect, trait mindfulness, and depression. To address potential multicollinearity among these variables and identify latent components associated with adherence, partial least squares regression was employed. Results: We identified a significant one-component solution explaining 19% of the variance in practice minutes. The presence of mild depressive symptoms and difficulties with emotion regulation was associated with increased homework engagement. Additionally, individuals with lower working memory scores at baseline demonstrated higher practice minutes. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that participants may exhibit better adherence to mind-body interventions when displaying a psychosocial profile that indicates mild emotional and cognitive difficulties. These results emphasize the target population likely to engage in mind-body interventions and may be valuable for designing tailored interventions and developing strategies to maximize adherence.
Children interpret some disjunctions conjunctively: Evidence from child Romanian
Authors: Bleotu Adina Camelia , Tieu Lyn , Benz Anton , Cremers Alexandre , Bîlbîie Gabriela , Panaitescu Mara , Ivan Rodica , Nicolae Andreea Cristina
Published: February 2024

Studies show that adults interpret simplex disjunction ("The mouse carried an apple or anorange") inclusively ('The mouse carried one, possibly both') or exclusively ('The mouse carried one butnot both'), while they generally interpret complex disjunction (e.g., "either. . . or") exclusively. Children,however, tend to be inclusive or conjunctive ('The mouse carried both') with simplex and complexdisjunctions alike. While previous studies focused on one simplex and one complex disjunction, thepresent study investigates multiple simplex disjunctions (neutral and prosodically marked "sau") andcomplex disjunctions ("sau. . . sau", "fie. . . fie") in child Romanian. We ask whether children’s conjunctiveinterpretation of disjunction is an experimental artifact that arises in contexts where the disjunctivestatement mentions all visible objects in the display, in which case it should disappear in contextswhere the disjunctive statement is made more informative. We also ask what role prosodic andmorphological markedness play in the interpretation of disjunction. We conducted two Truth ValueJudgment Tasks in prediction mode. In Experiment 1, the visual displays contained two objects,and the disjunctive test sentences mentioned both; while adults were exclusive, children respondedin a conjunctive manner to "fie. . . fie", but were inclusive elsewhere. In Experiment 2, the visualdisplays contained two additional unmentioned objects; children were inclusive with "sau"-baseddisjunctions, showing no sensitivity to prosodic/morphological markedness, but a considerablenumber of children persisted in their conjunctive behaviour with "fie. . . fie". Our findings supportthe view that, at least for some disjunctions, the conjunctive interpretation is a genuine semanticinterpretation in development.
Systematic Integrative Review Paradigm on Alcoholism Based on the MIDSCO Meta-Model and Application of Narrative Psychology Analyses in the L'Assommoir
Authors: Huang Wei
Published: February 2024

Alcoholism is a topic always involving personal experience, thus, it is suitable for narrative psychology analyses through which the responses processes from alcoholics can be explored. Moreover, some alcoholism theories can also be tested and verified. In this present paper, a Systematic Literature Review paradigm (SLR) termed Systematic Integrative Theory Construct Review (SITCR) or Systematic Integrative Review (SIR) is advocated first, suggesting that all systematic literatures review involving various kinds of papers should end up with a Systematic Integrative Theory (SIT) that can uniformly integrate and interpret as many phenomena as possible discussed in those reviewed papers, including data, results, conclusions, findings, models and theories etc., even when they are fragmented, conflicting and contradictory. In essence, this kind of literature review process is to systematize as many previous studies as possible ending up with a SIT construct, so that the fragmented situation in various psychology fields can be uniformly integrated. Based on this systematical literature review philosophy, a Multiple Integrative Dynamic Systematic Circular Open (MIDSCO) integrative alcoholism theory is constructed to integrate other alcoholism theories, and then, a humanistic methodological paradigm of Theoretical Construction and Narrative Verifying (TCNV) is proposed which not only can improve the repeatability of narrative studies, but also can serve as a complement to the scientific empirical-testing paradigm. Based on these constructions, the L’Assommoir novel is employed as analytic data, the complex relationship between alcoholism and a couple of human nature components are analyzed which include attitude and faith changing, agency selection, given events and environments, aroused/chosen settings and episodes, conflicts and defense mechanisms, sequent or chronological dynamic development of alcoholism, as well as types of alcoholism etc. Fixed hybrids of scientific and humanistic factors of mind components together constitute the specific and constant various human natures, thus, narrative analyses in the present paper are somehow conducted in terms of the hominism psychology perspective emphasizing powers and forces from human nature ghost’s disparities.

Introduction: Programs that build parenting skills and confidence can prevent the intergenerational transmission of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and promote positive childhood experiences (PCEs). However, they can be stigmatizing and difficult to access in under-resourced communities. We explored whether a trauma-informed parenting program offered universally in public schools in high-poverty urban communities can engage and support parents who have experienced multiple ACEs. Methods: Parents participating in an evidence-based parenting program (Chicago Parent Program; CPP) offered universally in their child’s school completed measures of their ACEs, PCEs, and perceptions of program satisfaction and impact. CPP session attendance and group-leader ratings of parent engagement in CPP sessions were also obtained. Data were analyzed using descriptive and correlational statistics. Results: Parents (N=230; 82.6% mothers, 67.4% Black/African American, 52.8% with incomes < $20,000) reported high levels of childhood adversity; 53.5% reported four or more ACEs, including witnessing violence (58.8%), physical (48%) and emotional (45.3%) abuse, and household substance abuse (44.4%). On average, parents attended 75% of group sessions and were highly engaged. ACEs and PCEs were negatively correlated (r = -.44, p < .001) though neither was associated with program attendance, engagement, or satisfaction. Parents reported improvements in parenting and child behavior. Conclusions: Results demonstrate that a universal, trauma-informed parenting program in public schools in high-poverty urban communities can engage parents exposed to high levels of ACEs and may disrupt intergenerational transmission of ACEs.
Mathematic Analyses about Error Bars using SD, SE and CI in Psychological Research Results
Authors: Huang Wei
Published: February 2024

Error bars using the Standard Deviation (SD), the Standard Error (SE) and the Confidence Interval (CI) as measurement respectively can often be found in psychological research papers. However, some meaningful questions should be asked about these three kinds of error bar. Are there any differences between these three kinds of error bars? Or, are they just some equivalents that can substitute with each other? If there are some differences, then what are the differences? Moreover, is it sensible that all error bars of SD, SE and CI are taken as exchangeable in all situations? Are there any independent situations that they should be applied? In what situation should which error bar be used? Also, when error bars are presented, by what criteria can statistical significance be judged based on those error bars? Can error bars be used in research results of repeated measures? In fact, multiple issues about error bars still remain unclear. Thereby, clarification of these issues via mathematic theory analyses will be the main purpose of the current paper. Controversies over error bar applications have long been an unsettled issue in psychological field and other scientific domains. The current paper is devoted to clarify multiple misconceptions and confusions in error bar applications, through construction of triple trinity theories, especially the triple implicit metastases model in it. Based on construction of these models, not only the measure methods and application situations of error bar are clarified, but also the three implicit metastases processes are made clear which are easily neglected by some researchers. Ignoring the three implicit metastases processes plus some equivocal conceptualizations on dimensions of error bar measure and application situations may together contribute to the multiple misconceptions in error bar applications. By using some mathematical analyses based on these triple trinity models in the current paper, multiple misunderstandings and confusions in error bar applications can be uniformly integrated and interpreted.
Providers’ experiences of working with Asian American individuals diagnosed with serious mental illness.

Despite cultural adaptations of evidence-based practices and increased cultural competency programs, Asian American communities chronically underutilize mental health services and have significantly high early treatment drop-out rates. Often these communities delay accessing treatment unless there is a diagnosis of serious mental illness in the family. While Asian communities have been known to prefer providers of similar ethnicities, ethnic concordance has been presented as a singular solution to address the underutilization of mental health services among these communities. However, little is known about the experiences of Asian American providers working with Asian Americans diagnosed with serious mental illnesses and their families within mental health system in the United States. The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore the experiences and perspectives of Asian American providers working with these communities. Sixteen providers from diverse Asian backgrounds working at two community mental health centers in the East and West Coasts of the United States participated in two sets of focus groups conducted by Asian American researchers. Framework Analysis methodology revealed challenges experienced by providers related to client engagement, managing boundaries, communication, and organizational challenges. In addition, providers described strategies used that focused on recovery and rehabilitation, cultural responsiveness, family engagement, and organizational supports. These results have important implications.

Immunosuppression in two cases of indeterminate hepatitis
Authors: Cohen Alexandra , Alvarez Fernando
Published: February 2024

Background:

Pediatric acute liver failure (PALF) is a potentially lethal and rapidly progressive clinical syndrome, with a large proportion of cases remaining indeterminate despite extensive investigations.

Patients and Results:

In this case report, we describe two male children with indeterminate PALF and a family history of autoimmune disease, both of whom were lymphopenic with necrosis, inflammation, and lymphocytic infiltrates on their liver biopsies. One of these patients subsequently developed hepatitis-associated aplastic anemia. Notably, in addition to receiving standard liver failure care, both patients were successfully treated off-label with anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG), as well as a more prolonged course of cyclosporine and corticosteroids.

Conclusions:

The fact that these medications all suppress T lymphocytes further supports the theory that T-cell activation plays a prominent role in the pathophysiology of indeterminate hepatitis. Further research should examine the short-term and long-term effects of ATG in this population, as well as the necessary duration of treatment with immune-suppressing agents.
