The Effect of Conscientiousness and Gender on Digital Game Addiction in High School Students
Authors: KESİCİ Ahmet
Published: September 2020

This study aims to investigate the effect of conscientiousness and gender on digital game addiction in high school students. This study has been conducted to 470 students from three vocational schools and four common high schools in Siirt in 2017-2018 academic year through a relational survey method. In this research, conscientiousness sub-dimension of The Big Five Inventory and Digital Game Addiction scale have been used. It has also been determined that conscientiousness and gender are significant predictors of digital game addiction, and both of the variables are able to explain approximately 12% of digital game addiction. Depending on this, this study has attempted to observe low level conscientiousness and gender (in case of being male) affect digital game addiction negatively in high school students. In addition to this, it has aimed to show that gender and low conscientiousness are the possible risk factors for students in term of digital game addiction. For this reason, the students’ traits of conscientiousness, particularly of male students, must be developed. Sense of responsibility is related to conscientiousness. Therefore, the traits of conscientiousness might be developed by enhancing the adolescents’ sense of responsibility, and hence some positive outcomes can be acquired against the digital game addiction.
Preschool Teachers’ Informal Learning Behaviors
Authors: Bartan Murat
Published: September 2020

Informal learning is the primary feature that transforms educational activities into lifelong learning. Informal learning refers to people’s discovering new things and improving their experience in everyday life. That is, it refers to learning outside the classroom. Teachers' informal learning styles are thought of as ways in which they overcome their deficiencies while continuing their profession. This study aims to reveal preschool teachers’ informal learning behaviors in their workplaces. Thus, it is a descriptive survey study. The study group was selected through simple random sampling. The participants include 117 preschool teachers working in Kütahya province of Turkey in the 2018-2019 academic year. The study showed that the most frequently employed informal learning activity by preschool teachers is “search the internet” while the least employed one is “consult to an online community that you are a member of”. Focusing on informal learning activities of information technologies teachers in their workplaces. An overall evaluation of environmental inhibitors to informal learning of preschool teachers shows that “lack of free time” affects the teachers most while “lack of monetary rewards” affects them least. An overall evaluation of personal characteristics that enhance informal learning for preschool teachers shows that “love of learning” affects teachers’ involvement in informal learning activities most while “initiative” has the least effect on informal learning activities.

Trees vegetation are obviously dominate at the old fallow lands of Papua Indonesian. Fallow lands in the edge of primary forest is generally at Sidey District Manokwari. The purpose of this study is to determinate understory cover vegetation conservation based list of IUCN at the fallow land Womnowi Sidey Manokwari. An inventory of vegetation has done using analysis of vegetation―continuous line sampling technique, 2 x 2 meters for sampling seedlings and understory non-woody plant cover and 5 x 5 for saplings. At one hectare fallow land we found 1482 an individual of 122 species understory cover, only 158 an individual of 22 species had entered in IUCN redlist. Species with status least concern (LC) are dominate (>80%) compare with status data deficient (DD), near threatened (NT), and vulnerable (V). The important value index (IVI) of species on list IUCN showing 22.60% at seedlings and non-woody understory cover and 19.81% at the saplings phase. Aglaia odorata Lour.(seedling and sapling) is LC category, Intsia bijuga (Colebr.) Kuntze (seedling) V category, and Pandanus tectorius var., uapensis (non-woody plant) DD category, each species is the only one. The further study should be more intensive compare primary forest and old fallow lands of Papua―the conservation list of understory cover vegetation is lowest, so we conclude this is obviously understory vegetation at old fallow lands.Key word: fallow land, conservation, Sidey, understory, analysis of vegetation

Published: September 2020

Global production of fibrous material is significantly growing reaching an expected 145 million metric tons in 2030. Fiber production includes mostly synthetic polymers, cotton and man-made cellulose (viscose). The main uses are in clothing, household and furnishing, industrial construction, automotive and other.Increasing consumption of fabric material causes the accumulation of single fibers into the natural environment. Significant numbers are discharged via wastewater from washing clothes, deposition from atmosphere or by other ways of transport. Fibers are now the most prevalent type of anthropogenic particles found by microplastic pollution surveys around the world. Substantial fiber concentrations are found in surface water, deep-sea and fresh water ecosystems. Consequently, fibers are present in food, drinking water, human lungs and digestive tracts of aquatic animals. Currently, there is great concern for the release of plastic nano- and micro fibers and microparticles (microplastics) to the natural environment for which nobody knows, so far, the ultimate consequences for health and ecological homeostasis.The potential risk introduced by the presence of fibers in the environment induces significant interest.These challenges were the source of inspiration for organizing our workshop . A group of scientists from different parts of the world met on Nov 4/5 2019 at Wetsus, European Centre of Excellence for Sustainable Water Technology in Leeuwarden, The Netherlands, to discuss all known aspects of synthetic nano- and microfibers. This included morphology, physicochemical properties, production and origin of nano/micro fibers entering the atmosphere, water and food chain; the potential consequences of inhalation and ingestion for human health; exposure and ingress via life cycle for aquatic biota; analytical and measurement methods; techniques to clean air and water, and protection means against inhalation or other ways to enter the human body.

Individual attitudes and market dynamics towards imprecision
Authors: Huber Christoph , Rose Julia Elisabeth
Published: September 2020

We analyze decisions and market outcomes under imprecision---that is, situations in which the probabilities or outcomes of a prospect are not precisely known. In a laboratory experiment with 320 participants, we model these two dimensions of imprecision and analyze individual attitudes and market dynamics. On average, we find participants to exhibit neutrality towards imprecision in probabilities but a preference for imprecision in outcome realizations. Our results demonstrate that individual attitudes broadly translate into the market outcomes and are correlated with individual trading activity. Our findings are relevant for managing the uncertainties involved in many financial decisions and policy-making applications.

Large-scale functional coactivation patterns reflect the structural connectivity of the medial prefrontal cortex
Authors: Tovar Dale T. , Chavez Robert
Published: September 2020

The medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) is among the most consistently implicated brain regions in social and affective neuroscience. Yet, this region is also highly functionally heterogeneous across many domains and has diverse patterns of connectivity. The extent to which the communication of functional networks in this area is facilitated by its underlying structural connectivity fingerprint is critical for understanding how psychological phenomena are represented within this region. In the current study, we combined diffusion magnetic resonance imaging and probabilistic tractography with large-scale meta-analysis to investigate the degree to which the functional co-activation patterns of the MPFC is reflected in its underlying structural connectivity. Using unsupervised machine learning techniques, we compared parcellations between the two modalities and found congruence between parcellations at multiple spatial scales. Additionally, using connectivity and coactivation similarity analyses, we found high correspondence in voxel-to-voxel similarity between each modality across most, but not all, subregions of the MPFC. These results provide evidence that meta-analytic functional co-activation patterns are meaningfully constrained by underlying neuroanatomical connectivity and provide convergent evidence of distinct subregions within the MPFC involved in affective processing and social cognition.

Vocational Training in Virtual Environments for People With Neurodevelopmental Disorders: A Systematic Review
Authors: Michalski Stefan Carlo , Ellison Caroline , Szpak Ancret , Loetscher Tobias
Published: September 2020

People with neurodevelopmental disorders are often considered unsuitable or incapable of working in open employment. When employment is available, tasks are often limited, and opportunities for career development are restricted. Policy and funding constraints leave people with disabilities without an opportunity to develop skills due to the additional time and costs for employers. To overcome these barriers, virtual environments have been proposed as a safe and reliable solution for training. An important prerequisite for a wider uptake of training in virtual environments are demonstrations that the training leads to improved performance in the real world. This is particularly true for people with neurodevelopmental disorders, as transferring learnings from one context to another can be challenging. A systematic review was conducted to assess whether training in virtual environments can be used to improve real-world vocational skills in people with neurodevelopmental disorders. After a systematic search in five databases, seven out of the initially identified 1107 articles met the inclusion criteria. The findings from these seven studies demonstrate that people with neurodevelopmental disorders can transfer vocational skills from virtual environments to real-world settings. With substantial technological improvements, a surge in accessibility, and improved affordability, there is a need to build upon the promising results identified in this review.
A Tutorial on Cognitive Modeling for Cognitive Aging Research
Authors: Greene Nathaniel R. , Rhodes Stephen
Published: September 2020

Cognitive aging researchers are interested in understanding how cognitive processes change in old age, but the standard analyses used on observed behavior (e.g., ANOVA) are inappropriate for measuring age differences in latent cognitive processes. Cognitive models formalize the relationship between underlying processes and observed behavior and are more suitable for identifying what processes are associated with aging. This article provides a tutorial on how to fit and interpret cognitive models to measure age differences in cognitive processes. We work with an example of a two choice discrimination task and describe how to fit models in the highly flexible modeling software Stan. We describe how to use hierarchical modeling to estimate both group and individual effects simultaneously, and we detail model fitting in a Bayesian statistical framework, which, among other benefits, enables aging researchers to quantify evidence for null effects. We contend that more widespread use of cognitive modeling among cognitive aging researchers may be useful for addressing potential issues of non-replicability in the field, as cognitive modeling is more suitable to addressing questions about what cognitive processes are (or are not) affected by aging.
Racial disparities in COVID-19 impacts in Michigan, USA
Authors: Anderson-Carpenter Kaston D , Neal Zachary
Published: September 2020

Several racial disparities have been observed in the impacts of COVID-19 in the United States. In this paper, we used a representative sample of adults in Michigan to examine differences in COVID-19 impacts on Blacks and Whites in four domains: direct, perceived, political, and behavioral. We found that in the initial wave of the outbreak in May 2020, Blacks were more likely to be diagnosed or know someone who was diagnosed, or more likely to lose their job compared to Whites. Additionally, Blacks differed significantly from Whites in their assessment of COVID-19’s threat to public health and the economy, the adequacy of government responses to COVID-19, and the appropriateness of behavioral changes to mitigate COVID-19’s spread. Although in many cases these views of COVID-19 were also associated with political ideology, this association was significantly stronger for Whites than Blacks. We conclude by discussing the implications of an ongoing and highly politicized public health crisis that has racially disparate impacts in multiple domains.
Environmental Science Communication for a Young Audience: A Case Study on the #EarthOvershootDay Campaign on YouTube 🎬🌎
Authors: Kaul Lena , Schrögel Philipp , Humm Christian
Published: September 2020

Addressing global sustainability challenges such as climate change in democratic societies requires thorough political and societal debates. Science and environmental communication is needed to inform these debates. However, not all parts of society are equally reached by traditional science communication. In particular young people, especially without academic background, are often left out. The cooperation of science communicators with influencers on the video platform YouTube can be a way to convey scientific information and raise awareness for environmental issues with new young audiences. This case study looks at three videos from the campaign #EarthOvershootDay on YouTube by the WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature) Germany and the educational initiative MESH Collective. The focus of the analysis lies on the established success factors of communication through influencers—specifically authenticity, comprehensibility and storytelling—and how they play out in detail in the three exemplary videos. Besides the analysis of the videos, the study is corroborated by interviews with the producers and a comment analysis in order to include the perspective of the viewers. Our analysis confirms previous findings on science communication with influencers and illustrates the practical implementation of these findings. It shows that authenticity is a central aspect which is not disturbed through the presentation of scientific content. The storytelling approaches are tailored to the respective influencer and their style. The language and structure of the videos are simple and comprehensible, scientific arguments focus on selected aspects and are tied to examples from everyday life. The comments by the users support these findings with the majority of comments addressing the three aspects of our analysis being positive. However, evidence for an in-depth engagement with the scientific contents could not be found in the comments. The stated goal of the campaign to reach educationally disadvantaged young people was only reached to a limited degree according to the assessment of the producers. Additionally, the views of two of the three videos remained below the average for the respective channel. Taken together this indicates that cooperation with influencers might not be an “all-purpose tool” guaranteeing success for science communication.
Making Sense of Algorithms: Relational Perception of Contact Tracing and Risk Assessment during COVID-19
Authors: Liu Chuncheng , Graham Ross
Published: September 2020

Governments, institutions, and citizens of nearly every nation have been compelled to respond to COVID-19. Many measures have been adopted, including contact tracing and risk assessment, whereby citizen whereabouts are constantly monitored to trace contact with other infectious individuals and isolate contagious parties via algorithmic evaluation of their risk status. This paper investigates how citizens make sense of Health Code (jiankangma), the contact tracing and risk assessment algorithm in China. We probe how people accept or resist the algorithm by examining their ongoing, dynamic, and relational interactions with it over time. By seeking a deeper, iterative understanding of how individuals accept or resist the algorithm, our data unearths three key sites of concern. First, how understandings of algorithmic surveillance shape and are shaped by notions of privacy, including fatalism towards the possibility of true privacy in China and a trade-off narrative between privacy and twin imperatives of public and economic health. Second, how trust in the algorithm is mediated by the perceived competency of the technology, the veracity of input data, and well-publicized failures in both data collection and analysis. Third, how the implementation of Health Code in social life alters beliefs about the algorithm, such as its further role after COVID-19 passes, or contradictory and disorganized enforcement measures upon risk assessment. Chinese citizens make sense of Health Code in a relational fashion, whereby users respond very differently to the same sociotechnical assemblage based upon social and individual factors.

Authors: Malyuha Nataliya
Published: September 2020

The article in question deals with the fact that contemporary art discourse under the influence of Christian ideas reflects Ukrainian mentality and spirituality, represents profoundly symbolic information on every individual’s outlook, priorities of his/her existence and criteria for assessing the morality of deeds. The study considers current issues of cultural identity and national Christian ethics of Ukrainians, the dichotomy of biblical ethical mandates and collective ethical experience recorded in literary works. Taking into account individual samples of literary works, the interpretation of biblical moral postulates from the perspective of collective ethical experience has been examined. The process of modifying biblical images in current secular context has been described. It has been taken into consideration that appealing to biblical parallels is an effective way to draw attention to urgent national issues.

The paper’s subject is tracing the historical memory of the Ukrainian people as evidenced in (broadly understood) phraseological items that contain oikonyms as well as adjectives derived from oikonyms, and refl ect the 19th c. Ukrainians’ perception of their history and neighbouring countries, and also their everyday life, local customs and memorable occurrences related to some inhabited places both in Dnieper Ukraine, then belonging to the Russian Empire, and in Western Ukraine, then part of the Austrian (after 1867, Austrian-Hungarian) Empire. Some of the phraseological units discussed in the paper and drawn from M. Nomys’ 1864 collection “Ukrainian sayings, proverbs and the like” are recorded in modern dictionaries, while the others are only found in the 19th - early 20th c. dictionaries. The author attempts to elucidate the origin and meaning of phraseologisms that are incomprehensible for Present-day Ukrainian speakers. In her reconstruction of relevant fragments of the 19th c. Ukrainians’ world picture, she uses the methods of historical-linguistic and linguistic-cultural analysis, also taking into account extralinguistic data.
Molecular Genetic Cause of Achromatopsia in Two Patients of Czech Origin
Authors: Hlavatá Lucia , Ďuďáková Ľubica , Moravíková Jana , Zobanová Anna , Kousal Bohdan , Lišková Petra
Published: September 2020

Introduction: Achromatopsia is an autosomal recessive retinal disorder with an estimated prevalence ranging from 1 in 30.000 to 50.000. The disease is caused by mutations in six different genes. The aim of the study was to perform molecular genetic analysis in 11 unrelated probands with a clinical diagnosis of achromatopsia and to describe clinical findings in those that were found to carry biallelic pathogenic mutations.

Methods: All probands and their parents underwent ophthalmic examination. Mutation detection was performed using Sanger sequencing of CNGB3 exons 6, 7, 9-13, which have been found to harbour most diseasecausing mutations in patients with achromatopsia of European origin.

Results: Three known pathogenic variants in CNGB3 were identified in 2 probands. Proband 1 was a compound heterozygote for the c.819_826del; p.(Arg274Valfs*13) and c.1006G>T; p.(Glu336*). Proband 2 carried the c.1148del; p.(Thr383Ilefs*13) in a homozygous state. The best corrected visual acuity in proband 1 (aged 19 years) was 0.1 in both eyes, in proband 2 (aged 8 years) 0.05 in the right eye and 0.1 in the left eye. Both individuals had nystagmus, photophobia, and absence of colour discrimination. Fundus examination appeared normal however spectral-domain optical coherence tomography revealed subtle bilaterally symmetrical structural
changes in the fovea.

Conclusion: Molecular genetic analysis of Czech patients with achromatopsia was performed for the first time. Identification of diseasecausing mutations in achromatopsia is important for establishing an early diagnosis, participation in clinical trials assessing gene therapies and may be also used for preimplantation genetic diagnosis.

Chronic eyelid edema may be a symptom of different disease. The most common are autoimmune diseases such as orbital pseudotumor, vasculitis, sarcoidosis, or impaired vascular or lymphatic drainage. Rarely has it been reported as the sole manifestation of the lymphoma. Eyelid lymphoma is a special clinical entity in the spectrum of hematological malignancies. Here we present our clinical experience with eyelids lymphomas. First case is a 76-year-old female patient with bilateral edema of upper eyelid non-responding to anti-inflammatory therapy. Histological examination diagnosed mantle cells lymphoma. In the second case, 58-year-old patient was diagnosed with solitary unilateral tumor of the lower eyelid, where primary biopsy was ordered and diagnosis of MALT lymphoma was established after histological examination. In both cases, it was not solitary eyelid tumor, but systemic disease with multiple lymphadenopathy and bone marrow infiltration were found in follow-up examinations. Subsequently, patients care was given to the hemato-oncologist.

Increased competition in womens boxing makes trainers to look for avarious ways for improving technical and tactical training and variability of actions during a boxing fight. Experts have proven that increasing the level of technical and tactical mastery is possible while reducing the level functional asymmetry. Purpose. To determine the ways’ of bilateral training for girls of 12-15 who are going in for boxing. Methods. Theoretical analysis of scientific and special literature. Data generalizations. Results. It has been studied the scientific works on specialties: sports medicine, sports physiology, sports psychology, theory and methods of physical education, ways’ of bilateral training in various sports. Opinions of specialists working in various sports including martial arts and boxing have been taken into account. Identified: the difference in age recommendations when teaching bilateral method, the value of individual asymmetry profile (IAP) while learning movements, the influence of phases of the menstrual cycle (MC) to the development of movements, insufficient description of the use of this method in special and scientific literature on boxing when training girls at the age of 12-15 years. Influence of functional asymmetry (FA) on: training process in sports in general and directly in boxing, mastering of physical exercises, development of physical qualities. Impartiality of determining the dominant functional side for mastering special boxing exercises only on the basis of the dominance of the limb. Different approaches to FA smoothing. Determined: optimal age for mastering technical - tactical exercises in boxing, a certain tendency of girls and juniors to master asymmetric exercises in boxing training, optimal physical exercises for smoothing FA depending on the period of long - term training of the athlete. Conclusions. When learning bilaterally, it is necessary to: determine the individual profile (IPA) of the individual, as well as take into account the phases of the menstrual cycle (MC). It is difficult to take into account the IPA in each new study of coordination, special exercises. Constantly change the means of submission the training task. Begin training with this method in certain sensitive periods only after mastering the exercise by the dominant party.
Studying the functional state of muscular and respiratory systems of technological university students
Authors: Zagorodny V. , Yaroslavskaya L.
Published: September 2020

The article examines and evaluates the functional state of the muscular and respiratory systems of Cherkasy State Technological University students during the first three years of study. Theoretical methods (analysis and thorough review of scientific literature), instrumental methods (wrist dynamometry, spirometry), methods of mathematical data processing are used during the research. Assessment of the indicators of the functional state of the muscular system is based on the indicators of muscle strength and strength index; the respiratory system is investigated by comparing the actual indicators of vital capacity of the lungs with the supposed standards, as well as by evaluating the indicators of the respiratory index with the average rate. The results of research reveal that the muscular strength of the male students within the period from the first to the third year of study is slightly increasing, whereas the female students` relevant indicators are not changing. Another indicator of the functional state of the muscular system is that the strength index of most male students correlates with the norm during the first three years of study, and with each passing year the share of males lagging behind this norm is also decreasing. The strength index within the female group during the same period occurs to be lower than the standard indicators and is not increasing. The vital capacity of the lungs in both male and female groups generally meets the age standards, though being slightly lower than the proper ones. The average values of the males` respiratory index correlate only with the lower limits of the norm, while the values of the females` index turn to be below the average norm.

The process of formation of tourist demand was studied and autocorrelation and partial auto-correlation were calculated. Valued behavior of selective ACF and partial PACF, showing the hypothesis about the values of the parameters p and q. Due to the lack of data, several competing ARMA (1.1) and ARMA (2.0) models have been selected. Both models showed a good match with the data, the models are adequate and the errors are random, so the best model is chosen according to the AIC and BIC criterion. The remains of the selected model are checked for the absence of auto-correlation using the Lew Box test. For the selected best model, forecasts were projected for 5 periods ahead. From the forecast of the time series it is clear that the tourist demand in the next 5 years will decline.
