Different lexicons make different rivals
Authors: Arndt-Lappe Sabine
Published: June 2022

Analogy-based theories assume that in situations of affix competition, language users create novel word forms on the basis of similar existing forms in their Mental Lexicons (Skousen 1989; Daelemans & van den Bosch 2005; Baayen et al. 2011). Interestingly, however, simulation studies employing computational implementations of analogical theories have almost invariably adopted a rather abstractionist view of the Mental Lexicon, representing the word stock of the language, and abstracting away from differences between individual speakers (cf. e.g. Chapman & Skousen 2005; Eddington 2006; Arndt-Lappe 2014; Nieder, van de Vijver & Mitterer 2021). This is a problem because it precludes the possibility of testing a central prediction of analogical theories: if affixes are assigned on the fly on the basis of similar words in the lexicon, then speakers with different lexicons should make different choices. The present paper provides a proof-of-concept study addressing this issue for the form-based rivalry between the two English adjectival suffixes –ic and –ical. AML (Skousen, Stanford & Glenn 2013) is used as a computational model. On the basis of a survey of the distribution of derivatives in different registers in the British National Corpus, predictions of the analogical model are compared for a simulated speaker with a large vocabulary (including academic words) and a simulated speaker with a small vocabulary that is based mainly on words from spoken language. A detailed statistical analysis of the simulations reveals that, while sharing some basic properties, the two models make very clear - and testable - predictions about speaker differences.
Compassionate Mind Training Can Increase Moral Expansiveness: A Randomised Controlled Trial
Authors: Kirby James N. , Crimston Charlie R , Hoang April
Published: June 2022

Can training in compassion help us to broaden our moral circles? 102 participants (87 female) took part in a Compassionate Mind Training workshop aimed to cultivate greater levels of compassion in parents. Participants were randomized to either the CMT (Compassionate Mind Training) intervention (n = 48) or waitlist control group (n = 54). Participants were measured at pre-, two-weeks post-intervention, and the CMT group again at three-month follow-up. At two-weeks post intervention participants in the CMT group compared to waitlist control had significantly increased total moral expansiveness (moral concern for human, non-human animals, and environmental entities), as well as increases specifically for family, revered and villain sub-groups. At three-month follow-up, these outcomes improved, with reported moral concern for all subgroups significantly increasing, including out-groups, stigmatized, animals, plants and the environment. The results from this first RCT evaluation of a brief two-hour CMT intervention to increase moral expansiveness shows promise for how we help increase moral expansiveness for in- and out-groups, and for the natural environment.

A single nucleotide variant on chromosome 11 residing within FAT3 distinguishes patients with luminal B breast cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: June 2022

Molecular subtypes including the luminal subtypes A and B drive patient outcomes in human breast cancer but the biological basis for this is not completely understood. We mined published microarray data (5, 6) to discover in an unbiased fashion the most distinguishing genetic and transcriptional features of tumors of each breast cancer molecular subtype. We identified a single nucleotide polymorphism, rs1791569, residing within FAT3, as among the most significant genetic differences in the tumors of patients with luminal B breast cancer. In a separate cohort of patients with luminal B subtype breast cancer, we observed transcriptome-wide differential expression of a FAT3 transcript. Analysis of patient survival data revealed that FAT3 primary tumor expression was correlated with overall survival in patients with luminal B subtype breast cancer. Sequence variation in the FAT3 gene may be important in understanding differences in genetic background that favor development of luminal B subtype human breast cancer.

Nutrition, Sleep, and Exercise as Healthy Behaviors in Schizotypy: A Scoping Review
Authors: Wong Keri Ka-Yee , Raine Adrian
Published: June 2022

**This paper is not published in open access peer-reviewed journal Behavioral sciences and can be found here: https://www.mdpi.com/2076-328X/12/11/412** This scoping review identifies the role of nutrition, sleep, and exercise as healthy behaviors in non-clinical individuals with schizotypy throughout the lifespan. Methods: We systematically reviewed the existing literature on these topics through databases including: PsycINFO, Scopus, APA PsycNet, ScienceDirect, Wiley Online Library and SpringerLink. Results: Of the 42 studies found, a total of 23 studies met the inclusion criteria on the review topic. Included studies reflect varying study designs (cross-sectional, multiple time-point, intervention, randomized-placebo controlled trials), assessment of schizotypy and associated healthy behaviors, focus on various samples and lifespan (e.g., undergraduates, adolescents, at-risk individuals), and stem from different countries. Conclusion: While a moderate number of studies address the role of nutrition, sleep, and physical exercise in relation to schizotypy, studies intersecting these topics are limited. Of the limited studies that do exist, the majority are correlational with the beginnings of causal support from intervention studies. As such, future research should focus on providing a more holistic understanding of what healthy behaviors precede and may protect from the development of schizotypal traits and its subtypes, and which behaviors might reduce levels of schizotypy. Author notes: This manuscript has been submitted for publication and is likely to be edited as part of the peer review process.

Perceptions of Physical, Sexual, and Psychological Violence Stories: A Registered Report
Authors: Delker Brianna C , Turner Kit , Michel Paige K , McLean Kate C.
Published: June 2022

Survivors of sexual violence have shared their stories with the public through social media in growing numbers. Recent research shows that sexual violence (versus other, less stigmatizing trauma) stories are perceived as more difficult to tell, and their storytellers less likeable. This is true even when stories have redemptive endings, contradicting an established U.S. cultural preference for redemptive stories. However, it is unknown if sexual violence perceptions generalize to different types of interpersonal violence (IPV) and if audience perceptions vary across 3 major types of IPV (sexual, physical, psychological). This pre-registered replication and extension study investigates these questions with a vignette-based experimental design modeled after 2 published studies by the first and last authors. Broadly, we hypothesized that cultural invalidation of sexual violence stories would extend to any IPV story (vs. non-IPV traumas such as natural disasters), and that within the realm of IPV, cultural invalidation would be more pronounced for psychological violence stories (vs. sexual/physical). Three samples of U.S. adult participants (N=1,045), 2 Nationally Representative and 1 University-based, were randomly assigned online to read 1 of 12 first-person trauma story vignettes and complete self-report surveys of story and storyteller perceptions in a 6 (trauma story: IPV [k=3], non-IPV [k=3]) x 2 (ending: negative, redemptive) between-subjects design. Support for our hypotheses was mixed. IPV (vs. non-IPV) stories were perceived as more difficult to share (η2p = .068) and their storytellers as having less positive personality traits (η2p = .043), even when stories ended redemptively. However, among the 3 IPV types, psychological violence storytellers were not robustly more stigmatized, and sexual violence stories were recognized as particularly difficult to disclose. IPV survivors face obstacles to telling their stories that may hamper both personal recovery and collective momentum for systemic change.
Conscientiousness associated with efficiency of the salience/ventral attention network: Replication in three samples using individualized parcellation
Authors: Sassenberg Tyler , Burton Philip , Mwilambwe-Tshilobo Laetitia , Jung Rex E. , Rustichini Aldo , Spreng R. Nathan , DeYoung Colin G.
Published: June 2022

Previous research in the field of personality neuroscience has identified associations of conscientiousness and related constructs like impulsivity and self-control with structural and functional properties of particular regions in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and insula. Network-based conceptions of brain function suggest that these regions probably belong to a single large-scale network, labeled the salience/ventral attention network (SVAN). The current study tested associations between conscientiousness and resting-state functional connectivity in this network using two community samples (N = 244 and 239) and data from the Human Connectome Project (N = 1000). Individualized parcellation was used to improve the accuracy of functional localization and to facilitate replication. Functional connectivity was measured using an index of network efficiency, a graph theoretical measure quantifying the capacity for parallel information transfer within a network. Efficiency of a set of parcels in the SVAN was significantly associated with conscientiousness in all samples. Findings are consistent with a theory of conscientiousness as a function of variation in neural networks underlying effective prioritization of goals.
What’s the story? Family demography at the end of progress
Authors: Cohen Philip N.
Published: June 2022

Abstract: I argue against a perception of normal modernity that is on some kind of track that we can try to get a handle on while we work around distractions like a pandemic, climate change, diverging and growing inequality, the centrifugal tendency of identities to be fragmenting, and policy incoherence. Instead, I suggest doing family demography in light of disasters, inequalities, identities, and policies as messy and incoherent, unpredictable features of society – not as bugs in the ointment of modern progress.
Dynamic Constraint and the Politics of Nuclear Attitudes
Authors: Baron Jonathon
Published: June 2022

Persuasive messaging about both nuclear energy and nuclear weapons has been a recurrent feature of the last 70 years, yet little scholarship considers how mass publics relate these technologies, or how messaging about one might influence attitudes toward the other. I seek to understand this relationship using formal causal models to guide qualitative and quantitative empirical studies that show that nuclear attitudes are related. New graphical models formalize the relationship in nuclear attitudes under multiple interpretations of Converse (1964)’s “dynamic constraint,” resolving conceptual issues in prior formalizations producing unnecessarily pessimistic conclusions about identification (Coppock and Green, 2020). These new frameworks clarify how pro- and anti-nuclear elites’ historical persuasion efforts sought to influence public support for nuclear power by altering mass associations between the technologies. The frameworks also motivate an adaptively conducted multi-stage experiment demonstrating that nuclear attitudes remain tightly linked; messaging about either technology can affect attitudes toward the other.

Published: June 2022

Medicinal plants are real sources of bioactive molecules. The objective of the present study was to assess the effects of aqueous extract of Acalypha wilkesiana (ALWILEXT) on toad heart. Phytochemical screening of the aqueous extract revealed the presence of bioactives, namely: coumarins, flavones, polyphenols, alkaloids, tannins, terpenes and saponosides. The results obtained show that ALWILEXT, at concentrations ranging from 5.10-5 to 5.10-5g / ml, causes negative inotropic and chronotropic effects on the isolated toad heart, similar to those of acetylcholine although less marked. These effects suggest the presence of adrenomimetics in the aqueous extract. The aqueous extract of Acalypha wilkesiana is said to contain concomitantly adrenomimetics which would justify its use in the treatment of hypertension.
Coccinia indica: A Comprehensive Review of Pharmacology, Therapeutic Applications, Nutritional Potentials, and Future Prospects
Authors: R Padma , G Vinoth Kumar
Published: June 2022

The pharmacognosy, phytochemistry, nutritional value, and ethnopharmacological activity of Coccinia indica (C. indica) are discussed in this review. Many patented compositions generated from C. indica are now widely available around the world. This has resulted in a rise in research on the phytochemical elements of C. indica as well as ethnopharmacological activities. This belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family. Indigenous peoples used several portions of the plant for food and medicine. When the fruit of C. indica is green in colour, it is used as a vegetable, and when it ripens into a beautiful scarlet hue, it is eaten fresh. C. indica's young leaves and branch tips are frequently utilised in traditional medical systems in Asia, including Ayurvedic, Siddha, and Unani. Traditionally, different parts of this plant used in folk medicine for many purposes, such as anti-diabetic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimalarial, antidyslipidemic, anticancer, analgesic, antipyretic, antitussive, antinociceptive, hepatoprotective, ant obesity, and neuroprotective function. Many traditional medicines are made from medicinal plants, minerals, and organic materials, which is why this review is focused on that particular plant. The utilisation of numerous medicinal plants from the traditional medicine system for the treatment of various ailments has sparked increasing interest in recent years. Traditional medicine has employed C. indica as a home treatment for a variety of diseases.
Language of Dramatic Monologue in Poe’s “The Raven”
Authors: Dewan Motikala Subba
Published: June 2022

Dramatic monologue had been used as a powerful tool to express emotions and feelings through the characters in the ancient Greek drama. It received the proper recognition in the Victorian era as a new form of literary device when the various poets and writers started using it in their works. Edgar Allan Poe was not an exceptional. This article explores the language of dramatic monologue in Edgar Allan Poe’s poem “The Raven”. It aims to look at the poem through the three perceptible features of the dramatic monologue: speaker/narrator, audience/listener, and occasion. It examines how the speaker’s soliloquy speech–moaning for the loss of his wife–changes into a powerful dramatic monologue. Obsessed with pain and agony, the speaker’s dramatic monologue escalates finding a listener, ebony raven inside the room. Throughout the poem, the occasion of the cold December becomes the vital point to bestow cryptic feelings to readers. In addition, the article provides an analysis of poetic structures through figurative languages which have made the poem pedagogically rich and their impact has taken the speaker’s dramatic monologue in diﬀerent level.

Global Englishes and their Impact on Teaching
Authors: Puri Gobinda
Published: June 2022

English, a means of global communication for international diplomacy, trade, work, media, and academics, has been inclusively recognized as Global Englishes (GE). This paper reviews the wider spread of English throughout the world from GE perspective and examines its impacts on the teaching of English. Moreover, it argues for the significance of GE informed pedagogy, which incorporates codeswitching, polylanguaging or translanguaging, with due respect to the diversity of English in Nepal’s context. By reviewing and analyzing related literature, it reports that GE perspective, as a paradigm that also includes World Englishes, English as Lingua Franca, English as an International Language and translanguaging, provides a new perspective for teaching English against the monolingual ‘Standard English Model’ pedagogy. Researchers have developed the teaching strategies incorporating the major themes of GE and reported positive as well as negative attitudes of the stakeholders in various contexts. This article has research and pedagogic implications as it provides useful insights for teachers and researchers for further research in this area.
Languages in Education: A Critical Ethnography of a Micro-level Policy
Authors: Kandel Basanta
Published: June 2022

This article explores the language policy in education (henceforth, LPE) at the local level. Adopting the critical ethnography study for 6 months at Vyas Municipality, I reveal what ideological awareness the policymakers and arbiters have on LPE and how do they interpret and appropriate it in multilingual school setting. The information collected through in-depth interviews, FGD, participant observation, and document reviews have been analyzed, interpreted, and triangulated critically. The study shows three major findings regarding LPE in local government; first, LPE has created a public debate and ideological discrepancy in multilingual school contexts; the second, the local LPE has diverse interpretation, appropriation, and practices; and the last, the English language policy (ELP) appears as a ‘black hole’, which has been gradually swallowing other local and indigenous languages. However, the language policymakers and arbiters have been gradually raising critical awareness for appropriate LPE and its practices that seems a positive advancement at the local level.
Systematic Review on Effects of Global Climate Change on Birds
Authors: Fernando H.M.S.  , Gunawardena M.P.
Published: June 2022

Consequences of climatic change in migratory and resident birds in terms of behavior, physiology, genetics, ecology, and evolution are the best documented changes reported in the animal world. This systematic review focuses on the studies conducted in the two most recent decades (2001-2020) regarding the effects of global climate change on birds. The PSALSAR [Protocol, Search, Appraisal, Synthesis, Analysis and Reporting results] approach was used to conduct the review. Information from a total of 170 publications in two databases (PUBMED and Google Scholar) including journal articles, books, book chapters, reviews and reports were extracted and analyzed under ten criteria. An increase in publication number was observed in both databases. Overall, the highest number of publications were available for the year 2019. The highest number (141) of selected publications were journal articles. The highest number of articles (41) were from PLOS One. Selected articles ranged between 1,830 and 2,100. Twenty eight studies were done on a global scale. Other studies scaled around eight regions, five continents and 40 countries. Behavior and ecology related consequences were studied the most. 82 studies used primary data sources and 88 studies used secondary data sources. Quantification, mapping and modelling were the most utilized modes of assessments. Most studied species are Pied Flycatcher (Ficedula hypoleuca), Blue Tit (Cyanistes caeruleus) and Tree Swallow (Tachycineta bicolor) Majority of the publications were based on expansion of knowledge. In conclusion, research based on consequences of climate change is rapidly rising. Long term data sets are being used to study past events and models are being used to make projections. However, only behavior and ecology are studied to a greater extent. Therefore, measures have to be taken to study the other focus areas such as physiology, genetics, and evolution. Especially the lack of specific studies in Sri Lanka indicates a research gap that must be addressed.

Utilization of Waste Banana Pseudostem for Paper Production via Organosolv Pulping
Authors: Pannala N.M.  , Karunarathne P.K.D.M.C.
Published: June 2022

Banana (Musa sapientum) is a predominant fruit crop grown in Sri Lanka which occupies nearly 60,000 ha of land, accounting for 54% of the total fruit cultivation land utilization in the country. The banana tree has a ten months cycle to bear fruits and after its harvesting, the stems are thrown away and left to decay and rot. The waste produced by a single banana plant can make up to 80% of the total plant mass and it is estimated that 220 tons of post-harvest biomass wastes are produced per hectare annually. This has led to waste disposal problems and serious environmental issues. Management of such a vast amount of agricultural waste promotes the use of this biomass for value addition processes. In this research work, an organosolv process based on a mixture of formic acid, acetic acid, and water was adapted and optimized to pulp banana pseudostem fiber and investigate its potential, as a raw material for pulp and paper production through chemical, morphological and mechanical characterization. The global consumption of paper totals more than 400 million tons, cutting down about 7.2 billion trees each year to meet its demand for printing, packaging, and writing purposes. Therefore, the initiative in utilizing available banana waste as an alternative raw material for paper production could further offer a great potential in reducing the dependence on natural timbers, which in turn reduces the demand for global deforestation in the long run. Banana pseudostem fiber is characterized by a high cellulose content and a low lignin content, which is desirable for better pulp yield and papermaking properties. However, it has a high ash content and its interference in the recovery of black liquor was overcome with the selected pulping method. It resulted in a high pulp yield (48.2%) with a kappa number of 32.4. A shorter fiber length (1.12 mm) contributed to a highly uniform paper structure with a smooth surface. Furthermore, the pulp fibers showed an increased crystallinity and a higher slenderness ratio, which is favorable for paper making. The papers produced were heavier weight boards with a grammage of 272 g/m2 and showed higher tensile index (43.16 Nm/g) and tear index (2.08 mNm2/g) compared to other published non-wood fibers.

Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), like highly toxic pollutants, are released into the air by various anthropogenic sources, and then they get settled on ground level surfaces as phyllosphere. Phyllosphere is an excellent niche to diverse fungi, and some of them are with PAH degradation capabilities. Out of them, Penicillium spp., which are highly abundant in different natural and contaminated atmospheres, have been leading for many research due to their high degree of physiological and genetic adaptation to degrade broad range of polyaromatic compounds. Therefore, this research attempted to determine the PAH (phenanthrene, anthracene, naphthalene and pyrene) degradation capability of phyllosphere inhabited Penicillium species. Fungal isolations were done from leaf samples collected from Panchikawatta, Orugodawatta, Pettah, Maradana, Colombo Fort and Sapugaskanda oil refinery sites in Sri Lanka. Isolated Penicillium spp. were identified up to genus level through colony morphology and microscopic observations. PAH degradation ability of isolated Penicillium spp. was screened using plate assay and confirmed through High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) analysis. Further, toxicity assays were performed. HPLC analysis results revealed that Penicillium sp. 1 showed the efficient degradation on phenanthrene (79%) and naphthalene (78%) while Penicillium sp. 2 showed the most efficient degradation on Anthracene (80%) and pyrene (66%) Toxicity assays results revealed that the metabolites of these PAHs degradation mechanism were not toxic for the growth of Penicillum spp, and also confirmed that those by-products were not harmful to the phyllosphere. All in all, Penicillium spp. showed efficient phenanthrene, anthracene, naphthalene, and pyrene like PAH degradation ability, with more than 54% of PAH degradation. Therefore this phyllosphere Penicillium spp. can be used in bioremediation of polluted air in the urbanized areas.
A Study on the Relationship between Economic Growth and CO2 Emission: A Comparative Study on Selective Countries
Authors: Kumari I.G.S.  , Ganeshmoorthy M.
Published: June 2022

The relationship between economic growth and CO2 emission has been a widely researched topic in the global context. This paper intends to shed light on the relationship between economic growth and CO2 emission in selected group of countries with special comparison between Sri Lanka and each country since it is the research gap identified by the researchers. The objective of this paper is to investigate the relationship between economic growth and CO2 emission in Sri Lanka in comparison with the reference countries. Examining the impact of the size of urban/rural population, GDP growth rate and electric power consumption on CO2 emission are specific objectives. The group of countries selected for this study are Sri Lanka, India, Norway, and the United States of America. This study uses secondary data for each country collected from the World Bank database for the period of 1994-2018. A period of 25 years with 20 cross sections draws 500 total observations. The Fixed Effect Panel Regression (FEPR) method is applied by using SPSS software as the analytical tool of the study. As expected, the p values of the study showed that there is a high impact of economic growth on CO2 emission in Sri Lanka and USA. Further, the study found that the economic growth of India and Norway have less effect on CO2 emission compared to Sri Lanka and USA. The study also found that the size of urban and rural population has a direct impact on CO2 emission in selected countries while GDP growth rate and electric power consumption has no impact into CO2 emission. The study concludes that the overall population of selected countries has significant impact on CO2 emissions since the increase in both urban and rural population has led to higher CO2 emission. Further, the research confirms the Environmental Kuznets Curve analysis since the results show that the countries with higher GDP growth rate and electric power consumption are contributing to lower CO2 emission. Finally, the research suggests that the Sri Lankan policy makers to implement a suitable program to lower the environmental degradation within the country. Developing or importing appropriate and advanced technology can minimize the environmental impact on developing process.

Agricultural Product Markets: Current State and Trends in Chicken Eggs Production in Ukraine and Worldwide
Authors:   Sumy National Agrarian University, Novikova Olha
Published: June 2022

Abstract. Introduction. The ever-growing world population and low price of chicken eggs have provided reasons for the increased popularity and growing market of this product in Ukraine and worldwide. Nevertheless, the ability to generate profit mainly depends on minimizing feed expenses together with having long-term selling contracts with a stable price level in hard currency. Purpose. Main goal of the article is to analyze the situation with chicken egg production in Ukraine and worldwide, outline the main problems effecting this sphere, structural characteristics of the market and develop proposals for improvement. Results. Despite multiple challenges in the sphere (necessity to change supplier of hatching-eggs, being highly dependent on the price of feed and electric power) Ukrainian producers managed to increase production almost two times bigger in the last 20 years and became one of world’s largest exporters. The production structure has not changed much with 44% being still produced by subsistence farmers. As for the legal henneries – almost 41% of them are micro size with less than 1 mln hryvnia sales a year. Another 22% are small with 1-10 mln hryvnia sales a year, 26% - middle-size and 11% in number make large companies with more than 100 mln hryvnia sales in one year. However, they sell 89% of the value of all egg products, which is more than 12 bln hryvna in total. That is how 19 biggest henneries actually control all market. Profitability of the egg production has been rather unstable lately with reported cost-benefit ratio of -23.5% in 2019. The price has also been unstable with fluctuations between -36% to +53% of the mean value during the year which makes business very unpredictable. Conclusions. The conducted research revealed positive trends in chicken egg production resulting from high demand for cheap food. However unreliable Ukrainian market stimulates exportation which protects producers from price fluctuations and growth of production cost. This made Ukrainian producers 4th largest world exporter. Production in Ukraine is mainly concentrated by the 19 largest henneries. Small-scale producers strongly suffer from all negative effects and are unable to support themselves without external financial assistance.
