Klasik Arap Belâgatında İstiâre Tartışmaları (Sekkâkî ve Kazvînî Örneği)
Authors: CAN Süleyman
Published: March 2023

İslâm tarihinde Kur’an-ı Kerim’in tefsiri ve daha iyi anlaşılması için Hz. Peygamber’den (a.s.) hemen sonra dil çalışmaları başlamış, bu süreçte belâgat ve belâgatın yan dallarıyla ilgili bilimler ortaya çıkmıştır. Belâgat ilminin müstakil bir ilim olmasının ardından Sekkâkî (öl. 626/1229), Miftâḥu’l-‘ulûm adlı eseriyle belâgat alanında yeni tanım ve düzenlemeler yapmıştır. Onun ölümünden kırk sene sonra dünyaya gelen Kazvînî (öl. 626/1229) ise önce Telḫīṣü’l-miftâḥ daha sonra da el-Îḍāḥ adlı eserlerini yazmış, Miftâḥu’l-‘ulûm’da eksik gördüklerini tamamlamış ve hatalı gördüklerini de tashih etmiştir. Çalışmada, Kazvînî’nin belâgat alanında Sekkâkî’ye yaptığı itirazların tamamı değil de mecaz ve istiâre özelinde beyân ilmiyle ilgili bazı konulardaki itirazları ele alınmıştır. Kazvînî, beyân ilmi konularından olan hakikat-ı lugaviyyenin tanımında Sekkâkî’ye itiraz etmiş ve itiraz gerekçelerini dile getirmiştir. Bu konuda hem Sekkâkî hem de Kazvînî’nin fikirleri, kendileriyle aynı fikirde olan belâgat alimlerinin görüşleriyle beraber değerlendirilmiştir. Daha sonra mecaz-ı lugavî konusu aynı şekilde incelenerek iki alimin görüşleri ve gerekçeleri ele alınmıştır. Kazvînî’nin el-Îḍāḥ kitabında Sekkâkî’nin Miftâḥu’l-‘ulûm’una birçok itirazının bulunduğu ancak bu itirazlar içinde en çok yer tutan konunun mecazın kısımlarından birisi olan istiâre ve istiâre türleri olduğu görülmektedir. Genel olarak istiâre, özel olarak da istiâre türleri olan istiâre-i tahyîliyye ve istiâre-i tebe‘iyye hakkında Kazvînî’nin Sekkâkî’ye itirazları olmuş, bu itirazlarındaki gerekçeler de birçok alim tarafından izah edilmiştir. Çalışmada bu alimlerin kitaplarındaki değerlendirmeler göz önünde bulundurularak Kazvînî’nin Sekkâkî’ye itiraz sebepleri ve konuya yaklaşım tarzları ortaya konulmuştur.
Emotional Responses to Wireless Emergency Alerts for COVID-19 and Predictors of Public Health Compliance
Authors: Madden Stephanie , Eng Nicholas , Myrick Jessica
Published: March 2023

This study explored perceptions and effects of the Wireless Emergency Alert (WEA) system for COVID-19 public health messaging after a message was sent to Pennsylvania residents in November 2020. Survey and interview research were conducted to understand the targeted publics’ reactions to this message and factors impacting potential behavior change. Findings showed residents who received the WEA expressed greater feelings of anger and surprise about the COVID-19 threat compared to those who did not. Additionally, for participants who did not receive the WEA message, higher arousals of fear and perceptions of threat severity predicted a higher likelihood that they would have changed their Thanksgiving plans. Interview data suggested positive emotions toward using WEAs for public health crises in general.
The Mediation Effects of COVID Vaccine Anxiety, Safety, and Fear on the Relationships Between COVID-19 Threat and Efficacy Levels with Parents’ Intent to Vaccinate Children
Authors: Park Sejin , Avery Elizabeth
Published: March 2023

Given the updated, ongoing recommendations for the COVID vaccine series and booster for children ages 6 months and older yet vaccine coverage remaining at less than 50% among children, it is critical for public health communicators to understand sources of vaccine hesitance among parents. A national survey of parents identifies the mediating effects of vaccine anxiety, safety, and fear on the relationships between COVID-19 threat and efficacy with behavioral intentions to vaccinate. Anxiety mediated the relationships between both threat and efficacy with parents’ behavioral intentions to vaccinate their children. Vaccine anxiety, safety, and fear mediated parents’ decisions to vaccinate themselves. Theoretical and applied implications are reviewed.

ALGUMAS REFLEXÕES SOBRE O ENSINO DE GRAMÁTICA E O ENSINO DE LÍNGUA PORTUGUESA
Authors: Paixão Ricardo Aparecido da , Gama Anailton de Souza
Published: March 2023

A contemporaneidade traz consigo uma crise no ensino de Língua Portuguesa, tendo em vista que o que se ensina hoje, não condiz com a realidade linguística e nem surte os efeitos esperados no ensino. Prova disso é que o educando passa doze ou mais anos na educação básica e quando tem que ler e escrever por ocasião dos processos de ingresso no curso superior, não consegue articular um texto coeso e coerente. Sabe-se que alguma coisa precisa ser feita para mudar a forma de como ensinamos a Língua Portuguesa; ao mesmo tempo, o ensino de Língua Portuguesa confunde-se com o ensino de Gramática e, o que é pior, com a Gramática Normativa. É preciso que o profissional da educação, em especial o professor de língua portuguesa saiba diferenciar o ensino de Língua Portuguesa com o ensino de Gramática. Este artigo propõe refletir sobre essas questões e apontar possíveis caminhos para resolver ou amenizar um problema tão complexo. Para tanto, optamos por um percurso metodológico em que abordamos sobre o ensino de língua portuguesa e a crise do idioma; as concepções de linguagem, gramática e língua; as causas da crise e, por fim, apresentamos algumas propostas metodológicas.

Published: March 2023

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar as relações entre os capitais econômico, cultural e social de concluintes de uma escola pública e periférica de município do interior do Estado de São Paulo e suas expectativas de estudo e trabalho. Os procedimentos de pesquisa utilizados foram questionários e entrevistas semiestruturadas. Os resultados foram analisados com base nos conceitos de Bourdieu de habitus, capital econômico, cultural e social. Verificou-se que o capital cultural foi o que mais influenciou as expectativas. Muitos dos estudantes e familiares ingressaram no trabalho em olarias ainda crianças, com percalços na escolarização. Na prática social, há a formação de um habitus especialmente voltado ao trabalho. Embora existam discursos favoráveis aos estudos, sua concretização e/ ou continuidade lhes parece custosa e improvável, em função do conjunto dos capitais e de suas disposições interiorizadas.

Published: March 2023

This study aims to reveal the impacts of Covid-19 vaccination on Covid-19 based deaths in countries with different income levels. In this context, the study investigated data between 01.03.2021 and 08.08.2021 by Panel data analysis. In the research, firstly, countries were divided into three different categories according to income groups: low-income level, middle-income level and high-income level. Therefore, each country group was examined separately and three different econometric models were produced. According to the results of the research, a 1% increase in the population vaccinated will result in a 2.1% decrease in the number of deaths from Covid-19 in low-income countries, a 0.5% decrease in middle-income countries and a 13% decrease in high-income countries. According to the results of the research, it was concluded that vaccination will significantly reduce deaths from Covid-19. For this reason, it is recommended that people complete their vaccine doses as fast as possible.

Authors: DEMİRCİ Esranur , KARAATLI Meltem
Published: March 2023

Yakın geçmişte hayatımıza giren ve kısa zamanda finansal piyasalarda kendisine yer bulan kripto paralar, hem bir değişim aracı hem de bir yatırım aracı olarak kullanılmaktadır. Kripto paraların merkezi bir otoritenin kontrolünde olmaması bu araçların fiyatlarında dalgalanmaları beraberinde getirmiştir. Bu nedenle, akıllı bir tahmin modelinin geliştirilmesi, yatırım yapılacak finansal varlıkların seçimi ve yatırım kararlarının hayata geçirilmesi açısından oldukça önemlidir.

Derin öğrenme ve yapay zeka, yatırım yapılacak olan kripto para birimi ve diğer yatırım araçlarının seçiminde kullanılmaktadır. Tekrarlayan Sinir Ağı (RNN), Uzun-Kısa Süreli Bellek (LSTM) ve Geçitli Yinelenen Birim (GRU) modeli gibi derin öğrenme modellerinin, kripto para birimi fiyat tahmininde geleneksel zaman serisi modellerinden daha iyi performans gösterdiği araştırmacılar tarafından kanıtlanmıştır. Bundan dolayı bu çalışmada, özel bir RNN yöntemi olan LSTM ve GRU’dan yararlanılarak, günümüzde piyasa değeri ve işlem hacmi en yüksek olan kripto paralardan Bitcoin, Ethereum ve Ripple’ın 30 günlük fiyat tahmininde bulunulmuştur. Araştırmanın sonucunda her iki modelde de en iyi tahmin sonucunu Bitcoin vermiştir. İkinci en iyi tahmin sonucu Ripple, sonrasında ise Ethereum için bulunmuştur. Kullanılan yöntemler karşılaştırıldığında ise MAPE performans ölçütüne göre en iyi tahmin sonucuna Bitcoin ve Ripple için GRU, Ethereum için ise LSTM modeli ile ulaşılmıştır.

Introducción. La mortalidad perioperatoria en el mundo representa 4,2 millones de muertes anuales. El cuarto indicador de The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery permite estandarizar la mortalidad perioperatoria. En Colombia, existen aproximaciones por datos secundarios, limitando el análisis y las intervenciones aplicables a nuestra población. El objetivo de este estudio fue describir la mortalidad perioperatoria a través de datos primarios que permitan sustentar políticas públicas. Métodos. Se hizo el análisis preliminar de un estudio observacional, de cohorte prospectiva, multicéntrico en 6 instituciones del departamento de Tolima. Se incluyeron los pacientes llevados a procedimientos quirúrgicos por una semana, con posterior seguimiento hasta el egreso, fallecimiento o 30 días de hospitalización. La mortalidad perioperatoria fue el desenlace primario. Resultados. Fueron incluidos 378 pacientes, con mediana de 49 años (RIC 32-66), buen estado funcional (ASA I-II 80 %) y baja complejidad quirúrgica (42 %). Las cirugías más comunes fueron por Ortopedia (25,4 %) y Cirugía plástica (23,3 %). El 29,7 % presentaron complicaciones postoperatorias, las más comunes fueron síndrome de dificultad respiratoria agudo e íleo postoperatorio. La mortalidad perioperatoria fue de 1,3 %. Discusión. La mortalidad perioperatoria discrepó de la reportada en otros estudios nacionales, aun cuando los pacientes tenían un bajo perfil de riesgo y baja complejidad de los procedimientos. Sin embargo, coincide con la reportada internacionalmente y nos acerca a la realidad del país. Conclusión. La determinación del cuarto indicador es de vital importancia para mejorar la atención quirúrgica en Colombia. Este es el primer acercamiento con datos primarios que nos permite tener información aplicable a nuestra población.

Published: March 2023

La industria del petróleo es una de las más prolíferas alrededor del mundo. Nuestra vida diaria está rodeada del petróleo, desde el combustible en la mayoría de los sistemas de trasporte y los sistemas de producción de electricidad, hasta las miles de envolturas de productos que consumimos en el supermercado. La economía mundial está vinculada estrechamente al descubrimiento, extracción, explotación y trasformación del petróleo. Para llevar a cabo estos procesos, es necesario que el petróleo y sus productos sean trasportados de un punto a otro. El sistema de distribución más popular y seguro en la actualidad es el de tuberías o ductos instalados a través de varios o miles de kilómetros en tierra o mar. Sin embargo la naturaleza misma de este producto posee un riesgo latente en su manejo en todo momento. Por esta razón, organizaciones privadas y públicas, universidades, centros de investigación y gobiernos buscan constantemente colaborar para innovar y desarrollar metodologías y tecnologías que asistan las diferentes facetas de la producción, proceso y trasporte del petróleo con el fin de reducir las incidencias e impactos que tienen las fallas de los ductos que trasportan los hidrocarburos. En este trabajo se describe el desarrollo de un Sistema de Soporte de Decisiones inteligente para asistir al proceso de toma de decisiones construido con un conjunto de Algoritmos Genéticos que proveen configuraciones optimizadas de las variables que describen, de forma cuantitativa, la condición del ducto y la probabilidad de que deje de operar correctamente a causa de una o varias fallas. El propósito de este proyecto es encontrar soluciones que minimicen y optimicen el valor de la Probabilidad de Falla en un segmento de ducto y de esta forma, contribuir a la asignación optimizada de recursos para evitar incidentes que impacten en el medio ambiente o en la sociedad.
Exercise and the Heart: Benefits, Risks and Adverse Effects of Exercise Training
Authors: Mannakkara Nilanka N , Finocchiaro Gherardo
Published: March 2023

Exercise has multiple health benefits and reduces cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Regular exercise decreases the burden of cardiovascular risk factors and improves prognosis in several cardiac conditions. Despite these premises, sudden cardiac death (SCD) during sports may occur in apparently healthy athletes who perform at the highest levels. Accurate identification and prompt treatment of individuals at risk may reduce the burden of SCD. A possible cardiotoxic effect of intense exercise has been recently postulated, however this is still matter of controversy as causal relationships are often difficult to establish taking into account multiple confounders. Exercise is safe for the majority, even with cardiovascular disease. In this review, we focus on exercise and sports, discussing their benefits and risks and exercise recommendations for healthy individuals and those with cardiovascular disease.
Randomized Pilot Study to Compare DCB-Based versus DST-Based Strategies for the Treatment of True or Complex Coronary Bifurcation Lesions

Published: March 2023

Background: Dual stenting technique (DST) is still mandatory for some true bifurcation lesions (BLs), but drug-coated balloon (DCB) alone may offer a new optional treatment with the potential benefits of fewer implants. However, procedural safety presents a concern when using DCB-only to treat true BLs. This study sought to explore the safety and efficacy of the DCB-only strategy for the treatment of true BLs. Methods: Sixty patients with TBLs were randomly assigned to be treated by a DCB-based strategy or DST-based strategy. All patients received angiographic follow-up scheduled after one-year and staged clinical follow-up. The primary endpoint was the one-year late lumen loss (LLL) and cumulative major cardiac adverse events (MACEs) composed of cardiac death (CD), target vessel myocardial infarction (TVMI), target lesion thrombosis (TVT), or target vessel/lesion revascularization (TLR/TVR). The secondary endpoint was the one-year minimal lumen diameter (MLD), diameter stenosis percentage (DSP) or binary restenosis (BRS), and each MACE component. Results: The baseline clinical and lesioncharacteristics were comparable with similar proportions (20.0% vs. 23.3%, p = 1.000) of the complex BLs between the two groups. At the one-year follow-up, LLL was significantly lower in the DCB-based group (main-vessel: 0.05 ± 0.24 mm vs. 0.25 ± 0.35 mm, p = 0.013; side-branch: –0.02 ± 0.19 mm vs. 0.11 ± 0.15 mm, p = 0.005). MLD, DSP and TLR/TVR were comparable between the groups. The one-year cumulative MACE, all driven by TLR/TVR (6.7% vs. 13.3%, p = 0.667), was low and similar without CD, TVMI or TVT in both groups. Conclusions: Compared to the DST strategy, the DCB- based strategy may be safe and effective in treatment of the selected true BLs. Clinical Trial Registration: Clinical registration number is ChiCTR1900024914.
The excessive use of sulphur and creation of stomme as an early modern cellar technique in Dutch wine trade
Authors: Beukers Mariëlla , Blijleven Rob
Published: March 2023

On the basis of study of early modern literature and other period sources we describe the production and use of stomme, used by Dutch wine merchants in the 17th, 18th and 19th century. We conclude that stomme was made by using excessive amounts of sulphur dioxide, thereby creating health hasards. The States General of the Dutch Republic acknowledged that danger, and banned the use of stomme  in 1613. However, the ban was never implemented and stomme remained in use for a long time. We argue that the ban was inspired by the risks posed to the health of the wine drinkers, but that economic reasons for a continuance of use prevailed.

The USSR and the Government of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in Exile: From the Break-off of Diplomatic Relations to the Military Alliance (May-August 1941): Historiographical Highlights
Authors:   University of Belgrade, Životić Aleksandar
Published: March 2023

The paper is devoted to the key events in the Soviet-Yugoslav relations during the spring and summer of 1941. Despite the firm guarantees of military assistance, stipulated in the treaty of friendship and non-aggression between the two countries signed on April 5, 1941, the Soviet Union did not react to the German attack on Yugoslavia, but limited itself to condemning Hungary's participation in aggression. On May 9, 1941, just a month after the signing of the treaty, the Soviet leadership, apparently under strong pressure from Germany, decided to break off diplomatic relations with the emigrant royal government. The study noted that, despite relatively mild form of the break-off, it was of rather brutal character. However, Germany's attack on the USSR changed the situation dramatically: diplomatic relations with Yugoslavia were restored, and in mid-July 1941, Ambassador Milan Gavrilovich arrived in Moscow again. Although the USSR and Yugoslavia subsequently fought against fascism together, the dramatic episode of the temporary break-off of relations initiated by a country that was considered fraternal, Slavic and allied, left a heavy mark on the history of bilateral relations: May of 1941 became a chronological landmark at which joint struggle against fascism stopped.
Bulgarian Сhets (Armed Detachments) in the Lovech Region in 1877: Myths of Historiography and the Realities of Published Sources
Authors:   Institute of Slavic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Frolova Marina
Published: March 2023

The study of published sources, which was a common practice in the Marxist historiography, enables us to reveal what the formation and activity of the Chets (Bulgarian armed detachments) in the Lovech region during the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-1878 looked like in reality. Local population did not join chets en masse, and the reason for this was the uncertainty about the victory of Russians and the fear of the inevitable retribution from returning Turks. The partisan movement never emerged, as claimed in Marxist historiography. Hopes for active assistance of the chets to the detachment of General P.P. Kartsov when crossing and in the battle with the Turkish garrison were not fulfilled. It's important to mention that in the Marxist historiography glorification and significant exaggeration of chets activities in the Lovchensky region were common.

Modernization and Nationalism in Greece. 1910-1932
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Nikitina Tatiana
Published: March 2023

The research analyses the process of modernization of Greece which was closely linked to nationalism during the period from 1910 to 1932. After the Balkan Wars of 1912-1913 the Greek state, the territory and population of which grew twice, needed changes. The changes in Greek society took place due to reforms conducted by the administrations of liberals led by the well-known Greek politician E. Venizelos. The modernization announced under the slogan of revival of Great Greece was determined to transform Greece into a modern and developed European state. It included political, military, agrarian, tax and educational reforms, industrialization of the country and adoption of labour legislation. The national idea appeared to be extremely effective in terms of unifying the society during the reformation period. Nationalism as one of the elements of traditionalism was what became the ideology during the period of transfer from traditional to modern society. The mutual influence of modernization and nationalism, as well as the reasons for incompleteness of liberal reforms in Greece, are considered in the paper.
Distinct connectivity patterns in clusters of inferior parietal cortex
Authors: Tabassi Mofrad Fatemeh , Schiller Niels O.
Published: March 2023

The inferior parietal cortex (IPC) is a complex brain region with the rostral, the middle and the caudal clusters, and functionally connected to several other cortical areas. Various cognitive functions are suggested to be governed by the IPC, however, due to ignoring the tripartite structure of this part of the brain, inconsistencies abound. Here, we compare functional connectivity patterns of the clusters of the IPC and highlight that only the rostral cluster of the IPC is involved in executive functions and not the whole IPC. We also elucidate the unique connectivity profiles of the middle and the caudal IPC which are not accommodated by traditional classification of brain areas as either task-based or resting-state related. These two clusters of the IPC demonstrate negative functional associations with brain areas involved in general cognitive functions, executive functions, in addition to the precuneus cortex, proportional to cognitive demand, in a modulating manner.

Dramatic improvements in measuring genetic variation across agriculturally relevant populations (genomics) must be matched by improvements in identifying and measuring relevant trait variation in such populations across many environments (phenomics). Identifying the most critical opportunities and challenges in the area of genome to phenome (G2P) research is the focus of this paper. Previously (Tuggle et al. 2022), we laid out how Agricultural Genome to Phenome Initiative (AG2PI) will coordinate activities with US federal government agencies, including USDA, expand public–private partnerships, and engage with external stakeholders to achieve a shared vision of future the AG2PI. Acting on this latter step, AG2PI organized the “Thinking Big: Visualizing the Future of AG2PI” two-day workshop held September 9-10, 2022, in Ames, Iowa, co-hosted with the United State Department of Agriculture’s National Institute of Food and Agriculture (USDA NIFA). During the meeting, attendees were asked to use their experience and curiosity to review the current status of agricultural genome-to-phenome (AG2P) work and envision the future of the AG2P field. To tackle some of these big challenges, we designed this workshop to include diverse voices with the intention of hearing the different perspectives important to solving these challenges. The topic summaries composing this paper are distilled from two 1.5-hour small group discussions that included 6-8 participants, each representing a mix of crop researchers and livestock researchers, data scientists, social scientists, engineers, and other diverse stakeholders. Subsequent to the conference, additional writing, idea exchanges, and e-mails were shared among participants and the output of those conversations is summarized in this report. Challenges and solutions were identified across multiple topics at the workshop and are reported here. We end our discussion with a vision for the future of agricultural progress, identifying two areas of innovation needed: 1) innovate in genetic improvement methods development and evaluation and 2) innovate in agricultural research processes to solve societal problems. To address these needs, we then provide six specific goals that we recommend be implemented immediately in support of advancing AG2P research.

Ride-hailing services have the potential to expand access to opportunities, but out-of-pocket costs may limit the benefits of ride-hail for low-income individuals. This paper examines how ride-hailing services can shape spatial and socioeconomic differences in access to opportunities while accounting for the trade-off between travel time and monetary costs. Using one year of aggregate Uber trip data for Rio de Janeiro in 2019 and a new multi-objective optimization routing method, we analyze the potential for ride-hailing services to improve employment accessibility when used as a standalone transportation mode and in conjunction with transit as a first-mile feeder service. We compare the accessibility Pareto frontiers of these transport mode alternatives with cumulative opportunity measures considering multiple combinations of travel time and monetary cost thresholds. We find that, compared to transit, ride-hailing can significantly expand accessibility as a standalone transport mode for relatively short trips (between 10 and 40 minutes), and as a first-mile feeder to transit in trips longer than 30 minutes. In both cases, the accessibility advantages of ride-hailing are mostly limited by relatively higher out-of-pocket costs. When we account for different affordability thresholds, the accessibility benefits of ride-hailing services accrue mostly to high-income groups. These findings suggest that policy efforts to integrate rideshare with transit are likely not going to benefit low-income communities without some form of subsidized fare discounts to alleviate affordability barriers. The paper also highlights how accounting for trade-offs between travel-time and monetary costs can importantly influence the results of transportation accessibility and equity studies, suggesting that this issue should be addressed in future research.

Many signaling processes rely on information decoding at the plasma membrane, and membrane-associated proteins and their complexes are fundamental for regulating this process. Still many questions exist as to how protein complexes are assembled and function at membrane sites to change identity and dynamics of membrane systems. Peripheral membrane proteins containing a calcium and phospholipid-binding C2-domain can act in membrane-related signaling by providing a tethering function so that protein complexes form. C2 domain proteins termed C2-DOMAIN ABSCISIC ACID-RELATED (CAR) proteins are plant-specific, and the functional relevance of this C2 domain protein subgroup is just emerging. The ten Arabidopsis CAR proteins CAR1 to CAR10 have a single C2 domain with a plant-specific insertion, the so-called “CAR-extra-signature” or also termed “sig domain”. Via this “sig domain” CAR proteins can bind signaling protein complexes of different kinds and act in biotic and abiotic stress, blue light and iron nutrition. Interestingly, CAR proteins can oligomerize in membrane microdomains, and their presence in the nucleus can be linked with nuclear protein regulation. This shows that CAR proteins may play unprecedented roles in coordinating environmental responses and assembling required protein complexes to transmit information cues between plasma membrane and nucleus. The aim of this review is to summarize structure-function characteristics of the CAR protein family and assemble findings from CAR protein interactions and physiological functions. From this comparative investigation we extract common principles about the molecular operations that CAR proteins may fulfill in the cell. We also deduce functional properties of the CAR protein family based on its evolution and gene expression profiles. We highlight open questions and suggest novel avenues to prove and understand the functional networks and roles played by this protein family in plants.
Does Theta Synchronicity of Sensory Information Enhance Associative Memory? Replicating the Theta-Induced Memory Effect

Published: March 2023

he binding of information from different sensory or neural sources is critical for associative memory. Previous research in animals suggested that the timing of theta oscillations in the hippocampus is critical for long-term potentiation, which underlies associative and episodic memory. Studies with human participants showed correlations between theta oscillations in medial temporal lobe and episodic memory. Clouter et al. (2017) directly investigated this link by modulating the intensity of the luminance and the sound of the video clips so that they ‘flickered’ at certain frequencies and with varying synchronicity between the visual and auditory streams. Across several experiments, better memory was found for stimuli that flickered synchronously at theta frequency compared with no-flicker, asynchronous theta, or synchronous alpha and delta frequencies. This effect – which they called the Theta Induced Memory Effect (TIME) – is consistent with the importance of theta synchronicity for long-term potentiation. Additionally, electroencephalography (EEG) data showed entrainment of cortical regions to the visual and auditory flicker, and that synchronicity was achieved in neuronal oscillations (with a fixed delay between visual and auditory streams). The theoretical importance, large effect size, and potential application to enhance real-world memory mean that a replication of TIME would be highly valuable. The present study aimed to replicate the key differences among synchronous theta, asynchronous theta, synchronous delta and no-flicker conditions, but within a single experiment. The results do not show evidence of improved memory for theta synchronicity in any of the comparisons. We suggest a reinterpretation of TIME to accommodate this non-replication.
Considerations towards a neurobiologically-informed EEG measurement of sleepiness

Published: March 2023

Sleep is a daily experience across humans and other species, yet our understanding of how and why we sleep is presently incomplete. This is particularly prevalent in research examining the online neurophysiological measurement of sleepiness in humans, where several electroencephalographic (EEG) phenomena have been linked with prolonged wakefulness. This leaves researchers without a solid basis for the measurement of sleep need in the individual and complicates our understanding of the nature of sleep. Recent theoretical and technical advances have allowed for a greater understanding of the neurobiological basis of sleep need: sleep need may result from increases in neuronal excitability and shifts in excitation/inhibition balance in neuronal circuits, and this can be directly measured via the aperiodic component of the EEG. Here, we review the literature on EEG-derived markers of sleepiness in humans and argue that changes in these may actually result from changes in aperiodic markers of neural activity. We argue for the use of aperiodic markers derived from the EEG in predicting sleepiness and suggest areas for future research based on these.

Music is a fundamental element in every culture, serving as a universal means of expressing our emotions, feelings, and beliefs. This work investigates the link between our moral values and musical choices through lyrics and audio analyses. We align the psychometric scores of 1,480 participants to acoustics and lyrics features obtained from the top 5 songs of their preferred music artists from Facebook Page Likes. We employ a variety of lyric text processing techniques, including lexicon-based approaches and BERT-based embeddings, to identify each song's narrative, moral valence, attitude, and emotions. In addition, we extract both low- and high-level audio features to comprehend the encoded information in participants' musical choices and improve the moral inferences. We propose a Machine Learning approach and assess the predictive power of lyrical and acoustic features separately and in a multimodal framework for predicting moral values. Results indicate that lyrics and audio features from the artists people like inform us about their morality. Though the most predictive features vary per moral value, the models that utilised a combination of lyrics and audio characteristics were the most successful in predicting moral values, outperforming the models that only used basic features such as user demographics, the popularity of the artists, and the number of likes per user.Audio features boosted the accuracy in the prediction of empathy and equality compared to textual features, while the opposite happened for hierarchy and tradition, where higher prediction scores were driven by lyrical features. This demonstrates the importance of both lyrics and audio features in capturing moral values.The insights gained from our study have a broad range of potential uses, including customising the music experience to meet individual needs, music rehabilitation, or even effective communication campaign crafting.

Introduction: The ability to self-regulate eating can improve health. This study aimed to determine the relationship between eating self-regulatory skills, diet quantity, and diet quality among Malaysian university students. Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 132 university students. Eating self-regulatory skill was assessed using the Self-Regulation of Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (SREBQ). Dietary intakes from two 24-hour dietary recalls were used to assess diet quantity and quality. Diet quantity was measured as energy and macronutrient intakes, analysed using NutritionistPro. Diet quality was measured using the Malaysian Healthy Eating Index (M-HEI). The relationship between eating self-regulatory skills, diet quantity, and diet quality were evaluated using tests for differences between means and multiple linear regression. Results: Male participants (n=47) consumed more energy than female participants (n=85) (Male: 1850±570 kcal/day, Female: 1596±567 kcal/day, p=0.015). Participants from the Nutrition and Dietetics (N&D) course (n=49) had better M-HEI scores than participants from other health courses (n=83) (N&D course: 52.7±10.5, non-N&D course: 47.2±10.7, p=0.005). The predictors of energy intake were gender (β=-0.193, p=0.023) and SREBQ score (β=- 0.223, p=0.009). Being female and having higher eating self-regulatory skills were associated with lower energy intake. The predictors of diet quality were university course (β=0.240, p=0.005) and SREBQ score (β=0.181, p=0.033). Studying N&D and having higher eating self-regulatory skills were associated with higher M-HEI scores. Conclusion: Higher self-regulation of eating behaviour score is a factor that contributes to lower daily energy intake and higher diet quality score.
