Moral Foundations of U.S. Political News Organizations: A Replication and Methodological Study
Authors: Padfield William Edward , Buchanan Erin Michelle , Jordan Kayla Nicole
Published: March 2022

Partisan differences and diviseness have become an increasing hot topic in psychological research. Many theories have been proposed to explain these differences and divisions including Moral Foundations Theory. The current research seeks determine if a linguistic measure of Moral Foundations, the Moral Foundations Dictionary (MFD) can unveil these theoretical partisan differences. In Study 1, we explored the MFD-Moral Foundations Questionnaire's measurement overlap using a multi-trait multi-method model and determined if current predictive shortcomings of the MFD can be improved with additional linguistic content. Next, we examined two replication extensions of previous work assessing the differences in political articles on moral differences using the MFD. Through web scraping, we extracted articles from popular partisan news sources' websites, calculated MFD word frequencies, and identified words' respective valences. This process attempts to uncover news outlets' positive or negative endorsements of certain moral dimensions concomitant with a particular ideology. In Study 2, we gathered political articles from four sources. In Study 3, we expanded their number of sources to 10 and analyzed articles that pertain to two specific topics: the 2018 confirmation hearings of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh and the partial U.S. Government Shutdown of 2018-2019. Results from all studies indicate that the MFD may not consistently show exptected partisan differences, shedding doubt on the usefulness of the MFD.
Mesoscale eddy variability in the CaribbeanSea
Authors: López-Alzate Margarita , Sayol Juan , Hernández-Carrasco Ismael , Osorio Andrés , Mason Evan , Orfila Alejandro
Published: March 2022

The spatial distribution, the monthly and seasonal variability of mesoscale eddy-observations derived from the AVISO eddy atlas are assessed in the Caribbean Sea for the period between 1993 and 2019 (both included). The average lifetime for the whole set of eddies is 61.8±37.1days, mean amplitude of 7.4±4.2cm for ciclonic and 6.7±3.7cm for anticyclonic and mean radius of99.5±31.2km for cyclonic and108.0±32.4km for anticiclonic. Ciclonic eddies are on average more non-linear than anticiclonic. The spatio-temporal variability in the number of eddy-observations is evaluated against the Mean Eddy KineticEnergy (MEKE) derived from geostrophic currents as well as from seasonal winds. Spatial distribution of eddy-observations are correlated with MEKE while the migration of the intertropical convergence zone explains the advection of eddies towards the southern part of the basin.
Risk perception biases and the resilience of ethics for complying with COVID-19-pandemic-related safety measures
Authors: RAJAONAH Bako , Zio Enrico
Published: March 2022

This perspective paper presents factors that bias COVID-19-related risk judgments and risk decisions, such as cognitive biases, affect heuristics, mental models of risk and trust. The goal is to gain knowledge about the difficulty of risk communication in inducing attitudinal and behavioral changes regarding protective measures. Talking about morality and ethics appears to be less obsolete and more necessary than ever; it could even be seen as a ‘spare tire’ after one and a half years of risk communication and almost 4 million deaths. Perhaps it is time to think in terms of resilience at all levels, from the citizen of humanity to the highest institutions.
Tracking Attentional States: Assessing the Relationship Between Sustained and Selective Focused Attention in Visual Working Memory
Authors: Arnicane Andra , Souza Alessandra S.
Published: March 2022

Attention has multiple influences on visual working memory (VWM). Fluctuations in sustained attention predict VWM performance. Furthermore, focusing selective attention in VWM by retro-cuing the to-be-tested item during maintenance, boosts retrieval. So far, we lack knowledge how the ability to focus selective attention relates to the state of sustained attention during the VWM trial. Here, we combined a retro-cue task and a self-rated attention protocol to test whether focusing selective attention via retro-cues: (1) mitigates spontaneous attention fluctuations, in which case retro-cues should be more helpful under low levels of self-rated attention; (2) depends on optimal state of sustained attention, in which case retro-cue benefits should be largest under high levels of self-rated attention; or (3) is independent of sustained attention, in which case retro-cue benefits and self-rated attention effects should be additive. Our data supported the additive hypothesis. Across four experiments, self-rated attention levels predicted continuous reproduction of colors. Retro-cue trials produced better recall and higher rated attention. Critically, retro-cues improved recall to a similar extent across all levels of self-rated attention. This indicates that attention has multi-faceted and independent contributions to VWM.

Published: March 2022

Early intervention in anxiety symptomatology in school-aged children and adolescents is an effective way to prevent later psychopathology. Several measures have been developed to identify these symptoms although few of them rely on the latest criteria for anxiety disorders and, therefore, can be outdated.The Youth Anxiety Measure for DSM-5 (YAM-5) is a recently developed self-report instrument assessing symptoms of the main anxiety disorders according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) and has consistently revealed good psychometric properties. In this validation study, we translated and analyzed the psychometric properties of YAM-5-I in a Portuguese community sample including 300 participants. Parallel Analysis, EFA, and CFA revealed a better fit of a four-factor model as opposed to the original model, including the scales of Separation Anxiety Disorder, Selective Mutism, Panic Disorder, and a fourth factor merging Social and Generalized Anxiety Disorders.High internal consistency of the YAM-5-I was confirmed (ω = .88), as well as its convergent validity with similar symptomatology (correlations ranging from .38 to .74, except for the Selective Mutism Scale). The sample size can be a limitation of the present study, and cultural aspects could have influenced our results on the YAM-5-I four-factor model (different from the original version with five factors).Overall, our study supported the good psychometric properties of the Portuguese version of the YAM-5-I, therefore, consisting of a valid and updated tool for screening anxiety symptoms in children and adolescents.
How did Japanese college freshman survive the Covid-19 pandemic at 2020?: A qualitative study of female college students
Authors: Sugawara Daichi , Shunsuke Inamuro , Haruka Satomi
Published: March 2022

Although previous studies have reported that the mental health of college students throughout the COVID-19 pandemic has worsened, few studies have examined the process of adjustment of college students in the same context. The results of a preliminary survey suggested that university freshman students in 2020 had a worse adjustment to university life than other year-level students. This study examined students’ adjustment during the COVID-19 pandemic by interviewing college freshmen about their adjustment to college life between April 2020 and January 2021.The interview protocol was based on the Trajectory Equifinality Model. In order for university students to adapt to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was suggested that they should actively collect information on social networking sites, register for courses smoothly, become familiar with online classes, make effective use of their free time, and turn to their high school friends when they cannot make new friends at university

Published: March 2022

Despite the gradual social evolution towards gender egalitarianism since the middle of the 20th century, gendered courtship and dating scripts, including chivalry, have remained representative of heterosexual courtship. At the same time, marriage equality and equal rights for the LGBTQIA+ community presents an opportunity to study genderless manifestations of chivalry and “apply the lessons from LGBTQ dating and relationships to heterosexual couples” (Lamont, 2021). In this study, we investigated chivalry expectations across sexual orientation, and among mixed-orientation couples (heterosexual-bisexual and lesbian/gay-bisexual). We found that chivalry expectations were highest for anyone dating a male, expectations were lower for bisexual men than for heterosexual men, and chivalry expectations were generally lower for those in inter-orientation relationships than those in relationships with someone of the same sexual orientation. Overall, bisexuals have the most egalitarian chivalry expectations, suggesting that it is possible for courtship expectations to be equal regardless of sex.
Phytotoxicity of clopyralid at high rates on seed germination of mediterranean pines
Authors: Bakan Oguzhan , Eşen Derya , Çetin Bilal
Published: March 2022

Black pine (Pinus nigra J. F. Arnold), maritime pine (P. pinaster Aiton), Scots pine (P. sylvestris L.), and Turkish red pine (TRP, P. brutia Ten.) are ecologically and economically important conifers of the Mediterranean Basin, and in particular for Turkish forestry. They are commonly used for the regeneration and restoration of degraded ecosystems in Turkey. Weeds compete with tree seedlings for vital site elements such as soil moisture and nutrients and solar radiation, substantially reducing tree establishment and growth. Herbicides can offer the practitioner efficient and cost-effective weed control compared to other methods. Rapid herbicide seed screening allows testing of crop-safe herbicides and application rates at much lower costs in a very short time-frame when compared to lengthy field trials. Clopyralid is a systemic herbicide used to rid pine seedlings of competing vegetation. The present study examined the effect of clopyralid phytotoxicity on these pine species using a rapid herbicide seed screening test in order to compare different application rates on seed germination and to identify crop-safe rates. Clopyralid was not phytotoxic to any of the pine species at low rates (i.e., <2%, v:v); however, pine sensitivity to the herbicide increased with increasing rates, especially for rates higher than 3%. Moreover, at high rates, clopyralid reduced the germination speed. This herbicide can be used at low rates for degraded areas and nursery sites in which sowing is used as the main regeneration or restoration method. Field confirmation of the obtained results is also recommended.
What’s Wrong with “Speciesism?”: Toward an Anti-Ableist Reimagining of an Abused Term
Authors: Wolfe Katharine
Published: March 2022

Peter Singer has long contended it is “speciesist” to regard all human life as of equal moral worth, maintaining that the moral value of life itself hinges on certain intellectual and psychological capacities. I argue that “speciesism” can be wrested from the ableism with which Singer aligns this term of critique and reclaimed as an important term of ethical analysis serving the interests of both animal ethics and disability bioethics alike, but the term must be extracted from capacity-based moral reasoning to do so. I turn to Eva Kittay, Sunaura Taylor, and Emmanuel Levinas to advance this argument.

Os (inter)lugares organizacionais
Authors: Vinhola Bruno Garcia
Published: March 2022

É comum ouvir que as organizações ocupam lugar central em nossas vidas, que o indivíduo deve procurar/entender qual é o seu lugar nas organizações, ou que as organizações são os lugares em que as pessoas se realizam. Contudo, de que lugares estamos falando? Lugares de vínculo, de significado, de experiência. É essa relação entre indivíduo, espaço e lugar que o presente artigo propõe discutir. O trabalho procura compreender as instâncias do lugar nas organizações, a partir da revisão das elaborações de alguns autores. Frente a complexidade interacional que se revela, se faz necessário o tensionamento acerca da suficiência dessas elaborações - que pensam as organizações como espaços e lugares de vínculos - para o contexto do ciberespaço, constituído por organizações em rede que têm a mediação digital como referência. Ao final, propõe-se um pensamento acerca do interlugar, instância que tem o potencial de carregar as inquietações acerca da construção de vínculos organizacionais no ciberespaço, para as quais os olhares dirigidos apenas às interações face a face parecem não dar mais conta.

Published: March 2022

O presente artigo se propõe a analisar como o conhecimento sobre o tempo aparece correlacionado às tecnologias de comunicação no saber jornalístico. Entende-se que uma das formas de se abordar a questão do fazer jornalístico e de se analisar a relação do jornalismo com a construção de uma narrativa do tempo presente seria por meio da reflexão conceitual a respeito de como o conhecimento sobre o tempo aparece correlacionado às tecnologias de comunicação nas ciências sociais e no saber comunicacional. Para tanto, entende-se ser possível analisar, brevemente, alguns dos conceitos e das noções de tempo presentes em diferentes áreas do saber para poder, aí sim, chegar a uma perspectiva de tempo em comunicação. É o que este artigo se propõe a fazer. Em um segundo momento, buscar-se-á analisar, de maneira crítica e articulada, as ideias de determinados autores que promoveram reflexões a respeito da questão temporal em comunicação e que podem se mostrar úteis para refletir a respeito da relação do fazer jornalístico com as relações temporais dos indivíduos na sociedade da informação.

Land administration system and geoportal service for the need of a fit-for-purpose national urban greenery management system (UGMS). The concept for the EU member state of Poland
Authors: Dawidowicz Agnieszka , Nowak Magdalena , Gross Marta
Published: March 2022

Motives: IT is nowadays an effective tool supporting management in many fields, including management of urban greenery. Only a few cities in Poland have launched a dedicated urban greenery management system (UGMS). The need to provide all cities in the country with such a possibility gave birth to the idea of developing a concept using existing Land Administration System (LAS) infrastructure connected with INSPIRE Geoportal which can provide more than 75% of the information for urban greenery management.Aim: The main aim of this study was to propose the functional and database concept of a fit-forpurpose urban greenery management system (UGMS) in Poland as a universal tool for different types of urban greenery management bodies (UGMB) and a consistent information platform covering the entire country based on LAS referred to as the Integrated Real Estate Information System (IREIS), and the INSPIRE Geoportal service. The UGMS concept can be implemented in the other Member States of the European Union and other countries that have LAS and SDI like INSPIRE.Results: This approach develops a cost-effective information system that contains comprehensive information from the existing SDI in Poland and can be used by all Polish cities. The system will provide UGMB with access to data that is required for the performance of their statutory duties. Previous accomplishments, EU recommendations, and national experiences in spatial planning have been taken into account in the design process. In line with the fit-for-purpose concept, the relevant needs were determined during a survey of selected public administration authorities responsible for urban greenery. As a result, the scope of data required to create the UGMS was defined in the context of system functionalities. In addition, potential sources of data for the UMGS and their location in the NSDI were identified.

Authors:   IAAS MSU, Russia, Moscow, Bektimirova Nadezhda
Published: March 2022

The article considers the final phase of the civil war in Cambodia which coincided with the first five years of the existence of a new state – the Kingdom of Cambodia (1993-1998). The so called win-win policy developed by Prime Minister Hun Sen contributed to the success of combatting the Khmer Rouge movement which continued to carry out armed actions against legitimate authority. The article shows that the policy involved the implementation of a five letter (DIFID) strategy: divide the movement, isolate its key components by taking away support at the local level, finish armed action, integrate those combatants who lay down their arms and develop areas of compact habitation.

Authors: KURŞUNOĞLU Nilüfer , ÖNDER Seyhan , ÖNDER Mustafa
Published: March 2022

The main principles of safety risk reduction are elimination, substitution, and engineering controls. Hazardous conditions, safe work practices, and other forms of managerial controls should be provided for a safe work environment. For this reason, the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is inevitable for employees. PPE can help mitigate accidents and injuries associated with hazardous materials or other potentially unsafe working conditions. Thus, the selection of a suitable PPE is a significant step in a safe working environment. PPE selection process is complex and involves multiple criteria decision making since several parameters affect PPE selection. In this study, factors affecting PPE selection were determined as Safety Features, Comfort and Efficiency, Design Principles, and Customer Support. In the present study, a systematic methodology to select an appropriate PPE was performed using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The results indicate that Safety Features main criterion is the most significant factor, followed by Comfort and Efficiency, Design Principles, and Customer Support main criteria, respectively.
National healthcare system performance in- dex: methodological approaches and results for Russia
Authors: Kislitsyna Olga
Published: March 2022

The provision of comprehensive and high-quality services is one of the most important aims of the healthcare system. This important task can be accomplished by continuously evaluating and improving the performance of the health care service. The purpose of our study is to propose and to test the methodology for evaluation the performance of the healthcare system in Russia. The methodology is based on the construction of a composite index - an integrated indicator that aggregates four main aspects of the healthcare system (accessibility, financing, responsiveness, outcome), measured by nineteen indicators. The information base of study is not only objective, but also subjective statistical data (data from special surveys). It was established that in general for the period 2000-2017 healthcare system performance improved by 8%. The aspects and indicators contributed to this process were identified. Of the four aspects, improvement has occurred in two. Of the nineteen indicators nine improved, and, accordingly, ten worsened. The main contribution to improving of the healthcare system performance was made by such aspect as “Responsiveness of the healthcare system” (+64%), followed by “Outcome of the healthcare system” (+12%). The worst situation is in the areas of “Financing of the healthcare system” (-26%) and “Accessibility of the healthcare system” (–17%). Despite the difficulties and limitations met by the authors, attempts to build composite indexes are seemed to be a promising approach for assessing the performance of the healthcare system, since they are easier to interpret; make it relatively easy to track progress over time using just one indicator, rather than multiple indicators; identify problem areas that require changes to improve performance; allow to draw public attention to industry problems; can stimulate the search for better analysis methods and statistics of better quality.

Water Quality Credit Trading: General Principles
Authors: Wade Tara , Borisova Tatiana
Published: March 2022

Protection of the quality of Florida water resources is an important priority for the public and the government agencies (Figure 1). Pollution of surface water (e.g., lakes, rivers, and streams) can be linked to fish kills, changes in the color and aesthetic appeal of the resource, changes in the quality of habitat for aquatic plant and animal life (leading to changes in the plant and animal communities), and to human health issues. To address the pollution problems, a variety of programs is implemented at the federal, state, and local levels. Despite these programs, water quality problems persist. A recent FDEP water quality assessment report shows that the concentration of nitrogen in surface water is increasing in some Florida regions, and most assessed rivers, streams, canals, lakes, and estuaries were not meeting surface water quality standards (FDEP 2016). Although there have been gains in pollution reduction, reducing pollution and improving water quality is still a public policy objective in Florida. Costs to implement Florida's water policy objective will be borne by Florida citizens and businesses. Market-based programs, such as water quality credit trading, can provide environmental benefits at lower costs and more quickly than other policy instruments (Shortle 2013). In this document, we review the basic components of a water quality credit trading program and discuss opportunities and challenges associated with a water quality credit trading program design. Technical terms used in this publication are bolded, and a glossary is available at the end of the document.

The Featured Creatures collection provides in-depth profiles of insects, nematodes, arachnids and other organisms relevant to Florida. These profiles are intended for the use of interested laypersons with some knowledge of biology as well as academic audiences.
The little fire ant, Wasmannia auropunctata (Roger), is a problematic invasive species from Central and South America that has become established in numerous countries and on islands around the world. This species has been documented in the state of Florida since at least 1924, where it was first recorded in Miami (Wetterer and Porter 2003). As the common name little fire ant (LFA) suggests, stings are painful, especially in relation to their small size.

The Featured Creatures collection provides in-depth profiles of insects, nematodes, arachnids and other organisms relevant to Florida. These profiles are intended for the use of interested laypersons with some knowledge of biology as well as academic audiences. Megalurothrips usitatus (Bagnall, 1913) is a small sized (3-4 mm) insect in the order Thysanoptera and family Thripidae, commonly known as bean flower thrips, oriental bean thrips, and Asian bean thrips. It is an important economic pest of legumes. Megalurothrips usitatus was first reported in the USA in Florida in 2020 (Soto-Adames, F. N. 2020).

Relevance. The relevance of the topic is determined by the fact that an analysis of the epizootic situation of infectious anemia of horses in the Russian Federation has been carried out, with the identification of regions with a high degree of risk for this chronic infection. The dynamics of the spread of the disease in disadvantaged regions for the period 2018–2020 was analyzed.

Methods. The main method of laboratory diagnosis of infectious anemia of horses is the study of blood serum in the diffuse precipitation in agar gel (AGID). For the analysis, we used the statistical data presented in the official reporting form 4-vet according to the Order of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation dated 02.04.2008 No. 189 (“On the Regulations for the provision of information to the system of state information support in the field of agriculture”).

Results. The article presents the results of the analysis of the prevalence of infectious anemia of horses in the country based on the results of serological studies in the AGID performed by the state veterinary laboratories of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in 2018–2020. In total, 1,426,642 one-hoofed animals were examined in the Russian Federation for three years at EIAV, 1,322 horses positively responding to AGID were found (0.1%). The largest number of sick horses was found in the constituent entities of the Siberian and Ural Federal Districts. Horses infected with the EIAV virus were found in all 12 constituent entities of the Siberian Federal District, 640 animals (0.1% of those examined). A tense epizootic situation has developed in the Omsk, Novosibirsk, Irkutsk and Tomsk regions, the Altai Republic, and the Trans-Baikal Territory. In 5 constituent entities of the Ural Federal District, horses responding positively to EIAV were found, only 584 samples (0.3%), the largest number — in the Sverdlovsk and Tyumen regions. Isolated cases of horse disease EIAV were registered in the Amur Region, the Sakha Republic and the Primorsky Territory of the Far Eastern Federal District, as well as in other regions of the country. Thus, the epizootic situation according to EIAV on the territory of individual constituent entities of the Russian Federation remains tense, which indicates the need for constant monitoring of the spread of infection.

Authors: Zaharova M. N. , Rozhkova L. V.
Published: March 2022

To accelerate the maturation of soybeans and the possibility of timely mechanized harvesting, chemical preparations — desiccants (for drying plants on the root) are used. The results of 2-year tests of desiccants on their effect on grain moisture and crop yield are presented. It was found that when using desiccants, the moisture content of soybean grain decreased on the 7th day of the spraying field by the amount from 12,0 to 12,6% and the yield increased by 119,8–134,6%.
Effectiveness of soil herbicides in sunflower crops grown by direct seeding technology
Authors: Gorshkova N. A. , Dridiger V. K.
Published: March 2022

Relevance and methods. Sowing of agricultural crops using direct seeding technology is becoming more widespread in the fields of the Stavropol Territory and other regions of our country. In the first years of the development of this technology, changes in the species composition of weed vegetation and increase the infestation of cropsare possible, in this regard, effective protection of crops from weed vegetation plays an important role in increasing the yield and economic efficiency of crop cultivation. In 2018–2020, at the experimental field of the North Caucasus Federal Scientific Agricultural Center, located in the zone of unstable moisture of the Stavropol Territory on ordinary chernozem, studies were conducted to identify the effectiveness of the use of soil herbicides in sunflower crops sown at various times (April 5–10, April 25–30 and May 15–20) using direct seeding technology. In the experiment, the sunflower was sown in the studied time with the use of only a continuous herbicide 5–7 days before sowing and with the use of the same continuous herbicide in combination with the introduction of soil herbicides after sowing. Results. On average, over the years of research, it was found that the use of a continuous herbicide is most effective 5–7 days before sowing, followed by the use of a tank mixture of soil herbicides in the post-sowing period when sowing the crop in the second decade of May. This scheme of herbicide application, combined with the postponement of the sowing period to May 15–20, reduces the number of growing weeds in crops during the growing season to 8–19 pcs./m2 and increases the yield to 2.32 t/ha.
Case study on the approach of the curricular component of History: An interdisciplinary view
Authors: Viana Maria Betânia Rossi
Published: March 2022

This article was born from the restlessness regarding the fragmentation of history taught at the State School Professor Maria Curtareli Lira, in high school, which describes the arduous path taken by the curricular component of History, from the colonization of Brazil to the present day and how interdisciplinarity is important, being little addressed or simply nonexistent in the classes of the curricular component of history. Whose objectives are to describe a brief history of the curricular component of history, to conceptualize interdisciplinarity as well as to specify how it is inserted in the Brazilian educational panorama. The methodology used was a bibliographic survey of the authors pertinent to the theme, concluding with the clashes on interdisciplinarity and the integrative form that is portrayed in the Common National Curriculum Base.

The Image of Female Ideal Body in Advertisements of the Slimming Product in Indonesia: A Critical Discourse Analysis
Authors: Eka Marthanty Indah Lestari  , Ni Made Savitri Paramita
Published: March 2022

Slimming products have been continuously produced, while advertisements used for marketing these products increase in number. Advertisement of these slimming products shows an image of the ideal female body that is promised to be achieved if consumers use the offered products. Advertisement of these slimming products becomes one of the facilities to spread and maintain an ideology of beauty in society. The ideology can influence and shape the perspective of society related to beauty stereotypes that are later made a benchmark in assessing a person. Many people are disadvantaged by these beauty stereotypes spread in society. This research aims to reveal the construction of the image of the ideal female body in an advertisement of the slimming products through three dimensions of Critical Discourse Analysis, as Fairclough (2014) stated. These three dimensions are the text analysis phase, discursive practice analysis phase, and sociocultural praxis analysis phase. Besides analyzing verbal and non-verbal aspects in the selected advertisements, the researcher also interviewed 10 (ten) women to identify the perspective of Indonesian women to the beauty discourse existing in advertisement and society. The results of the study revealed that beauty discourse, as shown in the advertisement, was internalized by women as participants in this research. In this case, discourse related to the ideal female body image is still persistent in society.
