Reconsidering Normative Interpretations in Personality Research
Authors: Klimstra Theo , McLean Kate C.
Published: February 2024

A vast body of knowledge on development and correlates of personality dimensions has led torecommendations on policy implications and interventions. However, we argue that there has notbeen enough attention to the socio-cultural contexts of personality development, resulting inincomplete and potentially harmful interpretations of the data. Although personality theoristshave addressed the role of socio-cultural context by pointing to person-environment interactionsand transactions, we argue that the implementation of contextualism is largely missing at a morefundamental level: In the operationalization of constructs and interpretations of individuals’standings on those constructs. The focus of this article is on the maturity principle of personalitydevelopment. We discuss problems that may arise when relying on constructs developed in aspecific group (i.e., primarily upper-middle class individuals in the United States), and thenusing value-laden labels such as “mature” and “healthy” to suggest that one personality profile isbetter than another. We aim to motivate researchers to not only reflect on using labels suggestingthat certain profiles or changes in personality are universally desirable or undesirable, especiallywithout attention to diversity in methods and samples, but also to understand how our valuesinform how we conduct and communicate our science.
On the Adaptive Nature of Anxiety: Toward an Integrative Signal Detection Approach to the Defensive Emotions
Authors: Matar Mariah , Heeren Alexandre
Published: February 2024

Aversive emotions like anxiety supposedly serve adaptive purposes. Yet, a consensual framework that defines the evolutionary function of anxiety and distinguishes between its (mal)adaptive forms is lacking. The present work addresses this gap through the elaboration of a theoretical approach that integrates behavioral, biological, and cognitive processes across three threat-related emotions -—anxiety, anger, and fear— using Signal Detection Theory. We review a broad selection of relevant theory and research to reach a mathematical formalization allowing to mechanistically interpret outcomes related to these three emotions. We also propose methods for diagnosing the adaptive fit of the defensive emotion displayed in a given situation and characterizing the corresponding behavioral response. With the ability to account for a wide range of phenomena, this approach bears significant implications for theory and practice related to anxiety, anger, and fear.
“When I am with my friends I am free, I am supported.” - A mixed methods study on autonomy, relatedness and identity among culturally diverse adolescents in Germany
Authors: Hölscher Sophie , Schachner Maja , Juang Linda P. , Schwarzenthal Miriam
Published: February 2024

Autonomy and relatedness are important psychological constructs that are related to a critical task of adolescence, identity development. However, a detailed understanding of the different content of autonomy and relatedness is missing, including their co-occurrence, relationship to identity development, and possible cultural variations. A mixed-methods approach using essay and survey data of N=364 7th grade students (Mage=12.34 years, SDage=0.72, 50.55% female) was used to investigate the three aims of this study: explore (1) the content of autonomy and relatedness, (2) the co-occurrence of these contents, and (3) how these contents are related to heritage cultural and national identity commitment in German-only (n=145), German-hyphenated (n=127), and non-German (n=92) self-identifying adolescents. Our results highlight autonomy and relatedness as multifaceted and separate psychological needs. Depending on the specific aspect of autonomy and relatedness, they may co-occur, be in conflict or enhance one another. Variations across gender and cultural self-identifications highlight the importance of appreciating cultural variations while also recognizing other sources of variation, such as gender, when examining autonomy and relatedness among adolescents. While no direct relationship between autonomy, relatedness, and identity commitment was found, fostering structured opportunities for engagement with heritage culture and national identity could be vital to promoting adolescent well-being.
Attraction effect in crowded decision spaces: exploring the impact of decoys in choices among numerous options
Authors: Marini Marco , Ansani Alessandro , Cecere Deborah , Paglieri Fabio
Published: February 2024

Human choices are context-dependent, and options evaluation is biased by the quality and quantity of available alternatives. In the attraction effect, apparently irrelevant dominated decoys have proven effective in shifting preferences in numerous laboratory experiments, yet its relevance in real-life consumer choices remains disputed. Part of the problem lies in the differences between laboratory settings and realistic scenarios: in the lab, participants are typically tested on ternary choices, deliberately excluding any interference from other context effects; in contrast, in real life, consumers face choices among a high number of options, and interactions with other context effects are frequent. In this paper, we present two experiments that investigate how these factors modulate the attraction effect: in particular, we systematically manipulate the number of decoys (study1), and the number of options available to decision makers (study2). Our findings provide a rich map of the effects of asymmetrically dominated decoys in larger multialternative decision contexts, suggesting that: (i) the attraction effect remains significant for up to 5 options; (ii) two converging decoys are more effective than one, but (iii) adding more can undermine the effect; (iv) compromise options have a peculiar dampening influence on decoys, making them ineffective at targeting the intermediate option.
Impact of Virtual Reality Therapy on AnxietyinChildren with Autism
Authors: Kelvin Kelly , Tera Terry , Tobiloba Bamigboye
Published: February 2024

Virtual Reality (VR) therapy has emerged as a promising intervention for alleviatinganxiety levels in children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This studyaims to explore the effectiveness of VR therapy in reducing anxiety and improvingoverall well-being among children with ASD. The research employed a mixed-methodsapproach, combining quantitative assessments of anxiety levels and qualitative insightsinto the subjective experiences of participants. The quantitative aspect involved a randomized controlled trial with a sample of 100children aged 6 to 12 years diagnosed with ASD. Participants were randomly assignedtoeither the experimental group, which received VR therapy sessions, or the control group, which received standard therapy. Anxiety levels were measured using standardizedscales at baseline, post-intervention, and follow-up assessments conducted one monthafter the intervention. Additionally, demographic information and baseline anxiety levelswere collected to ensure comparability between the two groups. Preliminary findings indicate a significant reduction in anxiety levels among childrenwhounderwent VR therapy compared to those receiving standard therapy. The experimentalgroup demonstrated statistically significant improvements in anxiety scores frombaseline to post-intervention and maintained these improvements at the one-monthfollow-up. Conversely, the control group exhibited marginal changes in anxiety levelsover the same period. Qualitative data obtained through semi-structured interviews with participants andtheircaregivers provided valuable insights into the subjective experiences of childrenundergoing VR therapy. Themes that emerged from the qualitative analysis includedenhanced engagement, reduced fear of social interaction, and increased feelings ofempowerment and control. Participants reported a sense of immersion and enjoymentduring VR sessions, describing them as engaging and interactive. The study also examined potential moderators and mediators of treatment outcomes,including age, gender, ASD severity, and presence of comorbid conditions. Subgroupanalyses revealed differential treatment effects based on these variables, with youngerchildren and those with milder forms of ASD experiencing greater benefits fromVRtherapy. Overall, the findings suggest that VR therapy holds promise as an effective interventionfor reducing anxiety levels in children with ASD. Its immersive and interactive natureappears to engage participants and create a sense of presence, leading to significantimprovements in anxiety symptoms. Future research should further explore the long- term effects of VR therapy and investigate its mechanisms of action to optimizetreatment protocols and enhance outcomes for children with ASD.
Using machine learning to discover diverse emotional-semantic representations for sonic branding: a generalisable approach
Authors: Silas Sebastian Jacob , Müllensiefen Daniel , Baker David John
Published: February 2024

Discovering emotional-semantic dimensions underlying music description contributes to music psychological theory. In applied branding contexts, such dimensions are employed to find music that conveys core brand values. A practically small number of dimensions for consumers to rate music assets on are desirable and often derived based on factor analytic methods. However, often resulting factor analytic structures must be subjectively reinterpreted and analyses begin by discovering an a priori unknown number of latent variables in a dataset, or, if a desirable number of dimensions is requested, produces solutions with highly unequal component importances. Alternatively, we propose a machine learning approach to discovering useful dimensions in high-dimensional data: Diversity-Induced Self-Representation Feature Selection (D-ISR; Liu, Liu, Zhang, Wang, and Wang, 2017), a data-driven methodology which can transition between simple and complex representations of the same (emotional-semantic) space. With a large dataset (NParticipants = 55,593; NResponses = 5,820,188; NAudioTracks = 251), we use D-ISR to select 14 core attributes from a pool of 212. The subset can reconstruct the original multi- dimensional space of all 212 attributes with good reconstruction accuracy (Mean RMSE = 0.32 [0, 10]). Consequently, whilst good reconstruction accuracy cannot always be guaranteed, we demonstrate a principled approach for discovering any a priori number of features to represent a large dimensional space. Framed this way, the decision about whether to use N vs. N+1 features only marginally affects reconstruction error and hence has broad practical utility. The method can be generalised to similar domains (e.g., personality measurement).

Status, opportunities, and challenges of agroforestry practices: perspectives from Terhathum district, Nepal
Authors: Regmi Gyanendra , Thapa Utsab
Published: February 2024

Tree cultivation in agricultural and public spaces serves as an alternative to fulfill the rural population's demand for forest products. However, agroforestry practices in Nepal, categorized by agro-ecological areas, lack sufficient documentation and improvement. The current investigation, undertaken in the Myaglung Municipality of Terhathum district in Nepal, aimed to examine the current practices and preferences related to agroforestry. The study also sought to uncover potential opportunities and challenges inherent in agroforestry while gauging the local community's perceptions regarding agroforestry. The primary data collection employed household interviews, key informant interviews, focus group discussions, and direct field observations while the secondary data were gathered from various public and unpublished sources. The farmers' preferences were evaluated using a five-point Likert Scale. In the study region, seven agroforestry systems, mainly employed for subsistence, were identified. The popular timber species in agroforestry included Alnus nepalensis, Schima wallichii, Castanopsis hystrix, C. tribuloides, and Pinus roxburghii. The favored fodder species were Ficus roxburghii, F. nemoralis, Artocarpus lakoochaa, Litsea monopetala, and Morus alba. On the other hand, the top fruit choices were Citrus reticulata, C. limon, Musa paradisica, Mangifera indica, and Litchi chinensis. The key barrier for agroforestry growth was the lack of technical knowledge in cultivating, managing, and harvesting agroforestry species, requiring attention for future agroforestry development in the region.
Jóvenes indígenas y educación superior a distancia en Querétaro: expectativas y experiencias
Authors: Concepción Valverde Pablo José
Published: February 2024

En México, consolidar el acceso a la educación superior para los jóvenes indígenas es una tarea pendiente para las diversas instituciones educativas y los proyectos gubernamentales que buscan atender los rezagos históricos que en materia educativa han presentado los pueblos originarios. Este artículo busca contribuir al análisis de uno de los modelos de educación que existen para atender a jóvenes estudiantes que habitan en regiones donde no hay planteles de educación superior: el modelo de educación a distancia del Tecnológico Nacional de México, de la región indígena de Tolimán, Querétaro. El objetivo es recuperar las experiencias, las expectativas y los significados que la educación superior tiene para los estudiantes mediante un acercamiento cualitativo con la técnica de grupos de enfoque. Los principales hallazgos revelan que este modelo resuelve dos obstáculos en las trayectorias educativas de los jóvenes indígenas: la lejanía de los planteles de educación superior y la escasez de recursos familiares para sostener a los alumnos fuera de su comunidad mientras estudian. También se observó que la educación superior retrasa el mandato cultural del matrimonio y la procreación, lo que incrementa la autonomía y el empoderamiento de las mujeres.

Abstract Aim. To analyze the epidemiology of childhood obesity, risk factors and the impact of this pathology on the reproductive system of teenage girls, as well as methods for diagnosing, preventing and treating excess body weight. Key points. In recent years, children and adolescent obesity has been recognized as a new chronic non-infectious epidemic. In this review, based on the results of the PubMed, Medline, eLibrary, Frontiers, Google Scholar from 2017 to 2024, data from domestic and foreign literature on the epidemiology of childhood obesity, risk factors, and the impact of this condition on the reproductive system of girls-adolescents, as well as methods of diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of excess body weight were analyzed. Сonclusion. Childhood obesity has both short-term and long-term adverse effects on physical, reproductive, and psychosocial health. In this situation, an effective strategy for diagnosing, preventing, and treating this condition is necessary. The use of recommended approaches and treatment principles by clinicians will undoubtedly improve the quality and effectiveness of medical care for patients with obesity. Key words: childhood and adolescent obesity, body mass index, polycystic ovary syndrome, reproductive function.

Objective: To describe the incidence of extravasation resulting from the administration of norepinephrine through a peripheral venous catheter in emergency patients.Material and Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted on 150 adult patients in the emergency department at Siriraj Hospital, Thailand. Physicians closely monitored patients who received norepinephrine via a peripheral venous catheter examining the intravenous access sites during the period of treatment and for up to 48 hours after discontinuation of treatment. We collected demographic data, norepinephrine administration details, potential risk factors for extravasation, the incidence of extravasation, and mortality rate.Results: The median age of the patients was 67 years, and 60.7% were male. Most patients (93.3%) received peripheral intravenous norepinephrine for septic shock, administered below the wrist joint (47.3%) through a 22-gauge catheter (82.7%). The median duration of total peripheral intravenous norepinephrine administration was 19.92 hours (interquartile range (IQR) 9.48-38.09). The median maximum dose was 0.07 mcg/kg/min (IQR 0.04-0.10). Extravasation occurred in three patients (2.0%) (95% CI: 0.6 - 6.1), none of which resulted in significant morbidity. The timing from shock diagnosis to peripheral intravenous norepinephrine administration did not statistically differ between survivors and non-survivors at both 7 and 30 days. However, the median time from shock diagnosis to achieve mean arterial pressure (MAP)≥65 mmHg, and time from norepinephrine administration to achieve MAP ≥65 mmHg, was shorter in the survivors compared to the non-survivors.Conclusion: Given that the incidence of extravasation events was low and did not result in significant morbidity, we suggest that peripheral intravenous norepinephrine administration is safe under close observation and for a limited duration.

Abstract: In recent years, metallic nanostructures have been extensively researched in the field of plasmonic for optical and optoelectronic applications such as biochemical sensing. However, an additional optoelectronic converter or spectrometer is usually required for the sensing application. Herein, the orderly-patterned Au-TiO2 Schottky junction with an Al film that we coupled, which simultaneously works as an optical reflector and conducting layer, can achieve optical sensing of glucose by exciting surface plasmon resonance associated with the environment, and meanwhile can realize glucose detection with direct electrical-signal readout by collecting the photogenerated carriers inside the Au nanostructures and TiO2 film. When used in optical mode, the designed sensor shows a sensing sensitivity of up to 1200.0 nmRIU-1 in numerical calculation, and the measured value is 346.1 nmRIU-1. When used in optoelectrical mode, the glucose sensor under one-sun illumination obtains a sensitivity of 70.0 µAM-1cm-2 in the concentration range of 0–10 mM, with a detection limit of 0.05 µM (Signal/Noise=3). Simulation and experimental results demonstrated that the Al-film-coupled Au-TiO2 Schottky nanojunction can monitor glucose concentration optionally in optical and optoelectrical modes, which presents an alternative route to the miniaturized, portable, and multi-functioned sensors.
