Is the warm glow actually warm? An experimental investigation into the nature and determinants of warm glow feelings
Authors: Bianchi Robin , Cova Florian , Tieffenbach Emma
Published: October 2023

Giving money to others feels good. In the past years, this claim has received strong empirical support from psychology and neuroscience. It is now standard to use the label ‘warm glow feelings’ to refer to the pleasure people take from giving, and many explanations of apparently altruistic behavior appeal to these internal rewards. But what exactly are warm glow feelings? Why do people experience them? In order to further our understanding of the phenomenon, we ran two studies: a recall task in which participants were asked to remember a donation they made, and a donation task in which participants were given the opportunity to make a donation before reporting their affective states. In both studies, correlational and experimental evidence converge towards the conclusion that, if the nature of the warm glow is straightforward, its source is multifaceted. Regarding the nature of ‘warm glow’, the pleasure people took in giving was mainly predicted by one particular positive emotion (‘joyful feelings’) and was indeed described by participants as a ‘warm’ sensation. Regarding the underlying psychological mechanisms, ‘warm glow’ feelings were elicited both by positive appraisals regarding the donor’s moral character and positive appraisals regarding the actual impact of the donor’s donation on the welfare of others. We discuss the implications of these findings for the role of positive emotions in explaining why people give.

Published: October 2023

One of the main issues that reduces the lifetime serviceability of concrete buildings is the corrosion of steel reinforcing. The degradation of concrete buildings caused by the corrosion of steel reinforcing can be prevented, delayed, or repaired using a variety of currently available techniques. Fiber reinforced polymer bars are an effective and affordable solution to the corrosion issues that steel rebars in severe settings are prone to. Steel alternatives that are robust and extremely corrosion resistant include fiber reinforced polymers. The fiber reinforced polymer bars have a high strength, a low center of gravity, are simple to handle, and require little maintenance. Glass fiber reinforced polymer bars are among the most widely used composite rebars, mostly because of their reasonable price and high performance. The Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic's mechanical characteristics Steel bars were inferior to polymer bars in a number of respects. This study examines how glass fiber reinforced polymer slabs behave under flexure under static and cyclic loads. Keywords: GFRP bars, Steel.

Speech enhancement, a critical component in various applications including voice assistants and telecommunication systems, aims to improve the quality and intelligibility of spoken content. This paper introduces a novel approach leveraging Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques for speech enhancement. By harnessing the power of NLP models, we propose a methodology that not only considers the acoustic features but also incorporates linguistic context in the enhancement process. The study encompasses data collection, preprocessing, and the application of advanced NLP algorithms to extract relevant linguistic information. The experimental results demonstrate a significant improvement in speech quality, as evidenced by a substantial increase in Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and Mean Opinion Score (MOS) compared to conventional methods. Furthermore, a comparative analysis with existing techniques showcases the superiority of our approach. This research not only contributes to the advancement of speech enhancement technology but also underscores the pivotal role of NLP in this domain. The findings pave the way for future research directions, suggesting potential applications in areas such as voice recognition systems and real-time communication platforms.

The act of thanking: A pragmatic study of speech act to speech action transition
Authors: Al-Ghazo Abeer
Published: October 2023

The force behind illocutionary speech acts is a complex concept that plays a crucial role in communication. By studying this concept, learners can gain a deeper appreciation for the power of language and the importance of effective communication in their daily lives. This study investigated the common thanking strategies used by Jordanian EFL learners in different situations. Using an 8-item Discourse Completion Test (DCT), 35 EFL learners (male and female), who studied at the Department of English Language and Literature at Ajloun National University, participated in this study. The learners were asked to write down what they identified as thanking expressions, similar to what they would say in their real-life situations. When the DCTs were finished, the kind of thanking expressions were categorized based on Cheng's taxonomy of gratitude expressions which included eight strategies: thanking, appreciation, expressing positive feelings, repayment, recognition of imposition, apology, alerting and other expressions that did not belong to the mentioned strategies. The frequency and percentage for each strategy were quantified. The results confirmed that most EFL learners used simple thanking expressions either in formal or informal situations. It was also found that aside from Chen's taxonomy-based thanking schemes, the participants also used combined strategies such as Thanking + complimenting/ Thanking +giving appreciation+ expressing delight/ Thanking by stating the reason/ Expressing surprise+ thanking / Thanking+ offering promise, and Thanking + Repayment. Future studies need to be conducted to investigate the difficulties faced by EFL Learners in using speech act of thanking.

In order to conduct the study, 136 poultry farmers were sampled. The study's respondents were chosen using a two-stage sampling technique. Descriptive and inferential statistics were applied to the primary data, which were gathered using a questionnaire and an interview schedule. According to survey results, the majority (65%) of respondents were men with a mean age of 44 years. The majority of respondents (90%) were married, and the average household size was 5 persons. The study also revealed that 1795 birds on average were kept in stock, and that 50% of farmers had tertiary education. Further analysis of the results reveals that 73% of the respondents had no contact with extension services. The outcome also demonstrates a significant level of loan default among farmers with 65% not repaying their loans as agreed. Poultry farmers in the study area obtained financing from both conventional and informal credit institutions. Age, educational attainment, household size and income were shown in the logit regression results to be the important factors influencing loan repayment among poultry farmers. The study recommended funding organizations to support farmers while also educating them on the need for loan repayment. Government and other agricultural stakeholders should make sure that farmers have access to formal education because research results indicate that farmers' educational attainment has a major impact on loan repayment. All the important factors that affected loan repayment should be taken into account when formulating policy. Interest rates on loans from official sources like commercial banks should be reduced. Informal sources should be supported so that farmers in the study area would have wider access to alternative sources of loans.

Authors: Guajardo-Fajardo Caballos Rosa , Barrero Nadales Alicia , Betancor Cabrera Sheila , Velarde Mayol Cristina , Santa Isabel Martínez Elena , López Sanabria David
Published: October 2023

OBJETIVOS
Identificar qué síntomas harían sospechar una apnea de sueño (AS) en pacientes que viven solos, ya que no consultan por ronquidos y episodios de apnea detectados por los convivientes, que son los principales síntomas para su diagnóstico.

MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS
Estudio descriptivo comparativo entre pacientes con AS que viven solos o no de un centro de salud urbano mayores de 18 años con registro nasal respiratorio nocturno > 15 apneas/hora de dos noches consecutivas, realizados en nuestro centro. Período: 2015-2021. Variables: poblacionales, comorbilidades, síntomas de sospecha de AS (excluye ronquidos y pausas respiratorias). Estadística: medidas de tendencia central, intervalos de confianza (IC) del 95% (IC 95%), t-Student y chi cuadrado. Análisis multivariante mediante la odds ratio (OR) para identificar qué variables predictoras identificarían mejor a estos pacientes. Significativo p < 0,05.

RESULTADOS
Pacientes diagnosticados en nuestro centro de salud de AS: 201, con registro nasal nocturno 92 pacientes (46,6%). Hombres: 52,2% (IC 95%: 42,0-62,4), viven solos: 26,1% (IC 95%: 17,1-35,1). Diferencias significativas entre pacientes que viven solos/pacientes que no viven solos: mujeres: 70,8%/39 ,7, p < 0,008; edad media (años): 65,5/55,5, p < 0,002; hipertensos: 62,5%/25,0, p < 0,001; nicturia: 45,8%/17,6, p < 0,008; fatiga: 45,8%/14,7, p < 0,003; somnolencia diurna: 79,2%/52,9, p < 0,02; sueño no reparador: 79,2/58,2 p < 0,05. Sin diferencias significativas: obesidad, tabaquismo, sudoración-palpitaciones nocturnas, otras enfermedades cardiovasculares, enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC). Son variables predictoras: la cefalea matutina (OR = 3,6), p < 0,009; ser hombre mayor de 60 años (OR = 2,06), p < 0,01, y el consumo de hipnóticos (OR = 1,05), p < 0,03.

CONCLUSIONES
El perfil de los pacientes con AS que viven solos: mujer, mayor de 65 años, hipertensa. Síntomas: nicturia, fatiga-somnolencia diurnas y sueño no reparador con más frecuencia que los que no viven solos. Pero la mayor probabilidad de sospecha fue: cefalea matutina (casi cuatro veces más frecuente en los pacientes que viven solos), seguidos por el hecho de ser hombre y consumir hipnóticos. Destacar que la cefalea y fatiga diurna, nicturia y consumir fármacos para el sueño, añadiendo los síntomas clásicos de la AS, nos harán sospechar de una AS en pacientes que viven solos.

Epidemiología de trastornos mentales en migrantes en Atención Primaria: un estudio transversal (oral)
Authors: Evangelidou Stella , Sequeira Aymar Ethel , Queiroga Gonçalves Alessandra , Osorio López Yolanda , Martínez Pérez Angela , Cruz Vázquez Angeline Marie
Published: October 2023

OBJETIVOS
Diagnóstico de trastornos mentales (TM) en pacientes inmigrantes atendidos por cualquier motivo en Atención Primaria (AP) en una comunidad autónoma con alta densidad de migrantes.

MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS
Estudio transversal llevado a cabo en ocho centros de AP, rurales y urbanos, de cuatro áreas de una comunidad autónoma, en marzo-diciembre de 2018. Durante el período de intervención, se estimó el número de personas inmigrantes con algún diagnóstico de salud mental del total de población inmigrante con al menos una visita registrada. Los datos de salud se extrajeron anónimamente de registros electrónicos de los centros de AP. Las variables recogidas fueron: edad, sexo, país de origen, diagnóstico de TM, entre otras. Los diagnósticos de TM se basaron en la Clasificación Internacional de Enfermedades (CIE-10). Las asociaciones se probaron con pruebas exactas de Fisher o chi cuadrado para variables categóricas y pruebas t o Wilcoxon Rank-Sum o Kruskal-Wallis para variables cuantitativas. Se utilizaron modelos de regresión logística y se calcularon los odds ratios (OR) y el intervalo de confianza (IC) del 95%. Limitaciones: infrarregistros en el país de origen.

RESULTADOS
Se registraron diagnósticos de algún TM en 609 de los 15.780 pacientes inmigrantes (3,9%, [IC 95%: 3,6-4,2]),

CONCLUSIONES
Los resultados sugieren que provenir de una zona en conflicto no necesariamente se relaciona con un aumento de la psicopatología, y que los migrantes de países occidentales presentan TM en los países de acogida.

Hipervitaminosis B12, como reactante, biomarcador en cáncer y otras patologías crónicas. Estudio de seguimiento para establecer un protocolo en Atención Primaria (oral)
Authors: Velarde Mayol Cristina , García de Burgos Marta , Cordero Sanz Ana Isabel , Torres Barriga Corina , Lorenzo Hernández Sandra Milagros , Luaces Puente Jorge
Published: October 2023

OBJETIVOS
Analizar las causas de hipervitaminosis B12-(HV-B12): neoplásicas, patologías agudas, autoinmunes, por sobredosificación de B12, en pacientes mayores de 18 años, con seguimiento durante un mínimo de 2 años para establecer un protocolo en Atención Primaria.

MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS
Estudio de prevalencia y seguimiento durante más de 2 años. Población: mayores de 18 años de un área de salud, con niveles de HV-B12 > 970 pg/mL. Período de corte: 2019. Muestreo aleatorio-sistemático con reposición. Variables: poblacionales, evolución de la HV-B12, neoplasias, enfermedades autoinmunes, sobredosificación, procesos agudos. Estadística: medidas de tendencia central con sus intervalos de confianza (IC) del 95%; análisis comparativo: t-Student, chi cuadrado. Análisis multivariante, analizando su asociación con neoplasias (recientes, reactivación). Significativo p

RESULTADOS
Total: 421. Hombres: 60,3% (IC 95%: 55,6-655,0), sin diferencias por grupos de HV-B12. Por sobredosificación de vitamina B12: 34,0% (IC 95%: 29,5-38,5), cuya edad media fue 75,8 años (desviación estándar [DE]: 16,9) y en los no tratados 69,3 (DE: 18,3) diferencia significativa (p = 0,004). Autoinmunes: 8,8% (IC 95%: 5,4-10,6), inflamaciones agudas graves: 12,4% (IC 95%: 9,2-15,5), principalmente pulmonares y digestivas, un 31,2% permanece con niveles altos 1,2 años después. Desconocidas: 25,2% (IC 95%: 21,0-29,3), el 26,6% sigue con niveles altos a los 2,2 años (rango: 1-9 años). Neoplasias: 19,1% (IC 95%: 15,3-22,8), recientes: 13,3%. Reactivación de una neoplasia antigua: 5,8%, el 96,3% (IC 95%: 92,2-100) > 50 años; ranking: hematológicas (28,7%), digestivas (23,7%), ginecológicas (16,5%), próstata (12,4%), origen desconocido (6,7%). Con una mortalidad 2,4 veces mayor que en los restantes grupos no tratados con vitamina B12. La mortalidad global fue 2,3 veces mayor en el grupo no tratado que por sobredosificación.

CONCLUSIONES
En casi un 10% pudo objetivarse una enfermedad autoinmune.
En un 12,4% coincidió con un proceso inflamatorio agudo grave.
En una cuarta parte, la causa sigue siendo años después idiopática.
Casi el 20% tenía antecedentes de neoplasias recientes o recaídas. Podría considerarse un factor predictivo de neoplasia o un marcador de mal pronóstico.
La mortalidad global es 2,3 veces más frecuente en el grupo que estaba sin tratamiento, comportándose también como un posible marcador de mal pronóstico.
