Abstract— Infidelity is a behavior that is considered by society to be immoral, yet it is widely practiced. How the cognitive process in the immoral behavior of infidelity, especially online infidelity in the context of dating relations, is still little studied. This study aims to examine the relationship between moral disengagement and online infidelity behavior in dating relationships. Participants (N = 157, M-age = 21.3) in this study were young adults who had been or were currently dating in Jadebotabek. The method used was descriptive correlation. Measures used were the Internet Infidelity Questionnaire and Infidelity Moral Disengagement measuring instruments, which were adapted to the context of dating relationships in Indonesia. The results showed that there is a significant positive relationship between the cognitive process of moral disengagement and attitude toward online infidelity in individuals who are in a dating relationship. Attitude toward Internet infidelity in women is higher than inmen, while moral disengagement in men is higher than in women. Attitudes toward Internet infidelity are also determined by the length of dating relationships.
Keywords: Internet infidelity; Moral disengagement; Dating; Young-adult
Abstrak— Perselingkuhan adalah perilaku yang secara social dianggap immoral, namun banyak dilakukan. Bagaimana proses kognitif dalam perilaku immoral perselingkuhan khususnya perselingkuhan daring dalam konteks hubungan berpacaran, masih jarang dilakukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat hubungan moral disengagement dengan perilaku perselingkuhan daring dalam hubungan berpacaran. Partisipan (N = 157, M-usia = 21.3) dalam penelitian ini adalah dewasa muda yang pernah atau sedang berpacaran di Jadebotabek. Metode yang digunakan adalah deskriptif korelasional. Pengukuran menggunakan alat ukur Internet Infidelity Questionnaire dan Infidelity Moral Disengagement yang ditrans-adaptasi sesuai konteks hubungan pacaran dalam bahasa Indonesia. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat hubungan yang positif signifikan antara proses kognitif moral disengagement dengan sikap terhadap perselingkuhan daring pada individu yang berpacaran.

Published: February 2024

Background
Gastric cancer (GC) is a malignant tumor that originates from the epithelium of the gastric mucosa and has a poor prognosis. Stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) covers 95% of total gastric cancer. This study aimed to identify the prognostic value of RNA methylation-related genes in gastric cancer.

Methods
In this study, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-STAD and GSE84426 cohorts were downloaded from public databases. Patients were classified by consistent cluster analysis based on prognosis-related differentially expressed RNA methylation genes Prognostic genes were obtained by differential expression, univariate Cox and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) analyses. The prognostic model was established and validated in the training set, test set and validation set respectively. Independent prognostic analysis was implemented. Finally, the expression of prognostic genes was affirmed by reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR).

Results
In total, four prognostic genes (ACTA2, SAPCD2, PDK4 and APOD) related to RNA methylation were identified and enrolled into the risk signature. The STAD patients were divided into high- and low-risk groups based on the medium value of the risk score, and patients in the high-risk group had a poor prognosis. In addition, the RNA methylation-relevant risk signature was validated in the test and validation sets, and was authenticated as a reliable independent prognostic predictor. The nomogram was constructed based on the independent predictors to predict the 1/3/5-year survival probability of STAD patients. The gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) result suggested that the poor prognosis in the high-risk subgroup may be related to immune-related pathways. Finally, the experimental results indicated that the expression trends of RNA methylation-relevant prognostic genes in gastric cancer cells were in agreement with the result of bioinformatics.

Conclusion
Our study established a novel RNA methylation-related risk signature for STAD, which was of considerable significance for improving prognosis of STAD patients and offering theoretical support for clinical therapy.

Published: February 2024

Background
Resilience is vital for improving mental health and well-being during adolescence, which is an important yet vulnerable period. Previous research has indicated that physical activity enhances individual resilience. However, limited studies have examined underlying psychological mechanisms between them. The current study aimed to investigate the effect of physical activity on adolescent resilience via self-efficacy and basic psychological needs.

Methods
A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 1,732 high school students aged 16 to 20 years old (mean age: 16.51 ± 0.77 years), with nearly equal number of boys (47.63%) and girls (52.37%). They each completed the Physical Exercise Questionnaire, Basic Psychological Needs in Exercise Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale, and Resilience Scale, respectively. A serial indirect model was constructed to examine how physical activity influences resilience.

Results
Structural equation model analysis revealed that physical activity significantly and directly predicted resilience. When self-efficacy and basic psychological needs were included in the model, both direct and indirect effects were observed. Specifically, the positive relationship between physical activity and resilience was partially mediated by self-efficacy and basic psychological needs. In addition, basic psychological needs and self-efficacy were found to serially mediate the direct relathonship between physical activity and resilience.

Conclusions
The present study provides novel theoretical insights into sports psychology by establishing a link between basic psychological needs and self-efficacy. The findings have implications for school administrators and physical education instructors in designing targeted interventions to promote adolescent resilience. These interventions may involve creating supportive environment conductive to fulfilling students’ basic psychological needs, implementing strategies to enhance self-efficacy beliefs, and providing opportunities for skill development and mastery experiences in sports and physical activities.

Published: February 2024

A clearly defined, lengthy (five days or longer) period of extraordinarily high ocean temperatures is known as Marine Heat Waves (MHWs) (above the e0th percentile). These events significantly impact the structure, abundance, cell size, metabolic functions, physico-chemical interactions between microalgae cells and their surroundings in the Indian Ocean. In the tropical Indian Ocean, the average sea surface temperature (SST) increased by 1.0°C (0.15°C/decade) on average between 1951 and 2015, while the global average SST warmed by roughly 0.7°C (0.11 °C/decade). This resulted from the incidence of Marine microalgal bloom MMBs (including Harmful Algal Bloom) and the number of causal taxa may grow as SST increases. Trichodesmium and Noctiluca contributed 34.4% and 31.8%, respectively, to the overall blooms. Such a heating phenomenon also triggers the dominance of small-sized algal cells, harmful diatoms and pico-plankton. The present paper reviews the Indian as well as global episodes of MHWs such as Western South Atlantic, North-East Pacific, Western Australia, Alaskan Sea etc. and their impact on phytoplankton. The combination of warming and heatwaves triggers blooms of buoyant cyanobacteria and its combined impacts of MHWs and ocean warming/acidification on phytoplankton community structure have not been fully studied in the Indian Ocean.

The internet, empowerment, and identity: an exploration of participation by refugee women in a Community Internet Project (CIP) in the United Kingdom (UK)
Authors: Siddiquee Asiya , Kagan Carolyn 
Published: April 2006

AbstractThis article considers the relationship between the Internet, empowerment, identity and participation; and focuses on refugee women in the United Kingdom (UK) participating in a Community Internet Project (CIP) to learn Internet skills. Semi‐structured interviews and a non‐participant observation were conducted with six refugee women and the course tutor participating in the final session of the CIP. Thematic analysis of the interviews supplemented with findings from the observation, revealed outcomes associated with technological engagement and participation. Technological engagement outcomes included intermediate outcomes of maintaining links and re‐building networks, and facilitating resettlement and integration; and empowerment and identity outcomes facilitating the maintenance and development of personal identities, and fostering psychological empowerment. Participation outcomes included the development of social identity and community narratives, and collective consciousness‐raising. These findings are used to reflect on the theory of the social psychology of participation (Campbell & Jovchelovitch, 2000), by contextualising technological engagement within participatory processes. The article concludes by discussing individual agency within participation; and calls for further research into the utility of digital technologies in community participatory processes.

Published: April 2006

AbstractThe present study investigated the analgesic and hepatoprotective activities of a water extract of Ononis spinosa L. (OS) in mice. Analgesic activity was based on the pain thresholds measured with the tail‐flick test before administration at 30, 90 and 150 min. The results were analysed with one‐way variance analysis. The extract of Ononis spinosa showed analgesic activity equivalent to aspirin at 30 and 90 min and even higher than aspirin with the 50 mg/kg dose. At a dose of 100 mg/kg OS showed an analgesic effect equivalent to aspirin at all time points.The hepatoprotective influence of OS on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)‐induced acute liver toxicity was also studied. The extract had no significant effect on the increased levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and bilirubin in CCl4 treated animals (p > 0.05). Thus, the results reveal that the extract of OS had no hepatoprotective effect on CCl4‐induced acute liver toxicity. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Proverb Comprehension as a Function of Reading Proficiency in Preadolescents
Authors: Nippold Marilyn A. , Allen Melissa M. , Kirsch Dixon I. 
Published: April 2006

Purpose:Proverb comprehension through reading was examined in 42 preadolescents (mean age=12:2 [years:months]) attending a rural public middle school. The study was designed to learn about individual differences with respect to reading, word knowledge, and analogical reasoning skills.Method:The 42 students were assigned to subgroups of proficient and less proficient readers based on their scores on a school-administered achievement test. Reading tasks were presented to examine their comprehension of unfamiliar concrete (e.g.,every bird must hatch its own eggs) and abstract (e.g.,gratitude is a heavy burden) proverbs, and their knowledge of nouns contained in the expressions. A nonverbal analogical reasoning task also was administered.Results:Proverb comprehension was found to be associated with reading proficiency, word knowledge, and analogical reasoning. Although all students were considered by their school to be typical achievers, they demonstrated wide individual differences in their ability to interpret unfamiliar concrete and abstract proverbs. Proficient readers outperformed less proficient readers on comprehension of both types of proverbs, knowledge of abstract nouns contained in proverbs, and analogical reasoning. They did not differ, however, on knowledge of concrete nouns, with both subgroups having mastered those words.Educational Implications:The results support the view that reading is an important language modality in older children, significantly related to their understanding of words and figurative expressions. Implications for instruction in proverb comprehension as part of a language arts curriculum are offered for speech-language pathologists working collaboratively with classroom teachers. These guidelines reflect the view that multiple factors (i.e., reading, word knowledge, analogical reasoning) promote proverb comprehension in youth.

Published: April 2006

Purpose:African American students perform disproportionately more poorly on standardized reading assessments than their majority peers. Poor reading performances may be related to test biases inherent in standardized reading instruments. The purpose of this investigation was to examine the appropriateness of the Gray Oral Reading Tests-Third Edition (GORT-3; Wiederholt & Bryant, 1992) for assessing the reading abilities of elementary-grade African American students.Method:Performances of 65 typically developing African American second through fifth graders were examined on the GORT-3.Results:African American English (AAE) was produced by most students while reading passages from the GORT-3 that were written in Standard American English (SAE). A scoring correction for AAE resulted in a statistical improvement in the performance distributions, but this did not appear to be educationally significant. Measures of total feature production predicted reading accuracy and rate, but not comprehension.Clinical Implications:Findings are discussed in terms of the appropriateness of this instrument for use by speech-language pathologists as they contribute to curricular and classroom placement decisions in schools with large numbers of typically developing African American students.
The Relationship Between Minimum Data Set Ratings and Scores on Measures of Communication and Hearing Among Nursing Home Residents With Dementia
Authors: Hopper Tammy , Bayles Kathryn A. , Harris Frances P. , Holland Audrey 
Published: April 2006

The Minimum Data Set (MDS) is a federally mandated assessment tool used to evaluate individuals residing in skilled nursing facilities, a large percentage of whom have dementia. Best described as a rating scale, it comprises items related to 16 domains of functioning, including communication and hearing. Typically, the MDS is completed by a nurse. When a deficit is observed, Resident Assessment Protocols (RAPs) are designed to address the impairment and provide information for appropriate plans of care. The purposes of this study were to: (a) comprehensively assess the communication and hearing function of nursing home residents with dementia, (b) evaluate the relationship between ratings on MDS communication and hearing items and the performance of dementia patients on standardized assessments, and (c) determine the number of residents with MDS-identified deficits who received a referral for further evaluation.
Fifty-seven individuals with a medical diagnosis of dementia participated. All exhibited deficits in communication and hearing function; however, the majority of participants were rated as having normal or adequate communication and hearing on the MDS. Of those participants with MDS-identified impairments in communication and hearing, none was referred for further evaluation. Implications for policy and care for nursing home residents with dementia are discussed.
Short-Term Auditory Memory in Children Using Cochlear Implants and Its Relevance to Receptive Language

Published: April 2006

The aim of this study was to assess auditory sequential, short-termmemory (SSTM) performance in young children using cochlear implants (CI group) and to examine the relationship of this performance to receptive language performance. Twenty-four children, 5 to 11 years old, using the Nucleus 22-electrode cochlear implant, were tested on a number of auditory and visual tasks of SSTM. The auditory memory tasks were designed to minimize the effect of auditory discrimination ability. Stimuli were chosen that children with cochlear implants could accurately identify with a reaction time similar to that of a control group of children with normal hearing (NH group). All children were also assessed on a receptive language test and on a nonverbal intelligence scale.
As expected, children using cochlear implants demonstrated poorer auditory and visual SSTM skills than their hearing peers when the stimuli were verbal or were pictures that could be readily labeled. They did not differ from their peers with normal hearing on tasks where the stimuli were less likely to be verbally encoded. An important finding was that the CI group did not appear to have a sequential memory deficit specific to the auditory modality. The difference scores (auditory minus visual memory performance) for the CI group were not significantly different from those for the NH group. SSTM performance accounted for significant variance in the receptive language performance of the CI group. However, a forward stepwise regression analysis revealed that visual spatial memory (one of the subtests of the nonverbal IQ test) was the main predictor of variance in the language scores of the children using cochlear implants.

AbstractWe report an outbreak of norovirus in a locked pediatric inpatient psychiatric unit with attack rates of 75% among 4 patients and 26% among 38 staff. Factors contributing to the outbreak included environmental contamination, close staff-patient contact including sharing meals, and inability to confine the index patient with the use of contact precautions.
The reliability of laryngoscope lights
Authors: Howes B. W. 
Published: April 2006

SummaryThe aim of this study is to compare the brightness of laryngoscope light between instruments, and the variability within the same instrument. A secondary aim is to compare the light from a reusable laryngoscope with a single use design. Testing equipment was constructed which provided a qualitative measure of light output from laryngoscopes. Anaesthetists assessed the minimum acceptable brightness for intubation using the intubating mannikin and a variable brightness laryngoscope. Laryngoscopes in anaesthetic rooms around the hospital were then tested repeatedly, and the results were compared to the anaesthetists' opinions. There was considerable intersubject and intrasubject variation in the reusable design, often failing to satisfy the minimum brightness. The single use blades were found to be brighter and more reliable than reusable blades.

AbstractBackground  Women with a history of gestational diabetes (p‐GDM) are at increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) later in life, and therefore at increased risk for future cardiovascular disease.Materials and methods  Three months after delivery we investigated the plasma levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI‐1), tissue plasminogen activator (t‐PA), fibrinogen and von Willebrand factor (vWF) in 74 women with p‐GDM and 20 healthy females with normal glucose tolerance during and after pregnancy, as well as the relation of fibrinolytic parameters to insulin resistance and glycaemic control. All women underwent an oral (OGTT) as well as an intravenous glucose tolerance test (FSIGT). Mathematical model analysis disclosed that 50% (n = 37 each) of the p‐GDM subjects had normal (NIS) or impaired (IIS) insulin sensitivity. Parameters of interest were determined using commercially available test systems.Results  Women with p‐GDM and IIS had significantly increased body fat mass (BFM) (P ≤ 0·001) compared with women with p‐GDM and NIS and controls, whereas the waist to hip ratio (WHR) was similar in both p‐GDM groups but was higher compared with the controls (P ≤ 0·001). Mean PAI‐1 and t‐PA as well as fasting and stimulated plasma concentrations of proinsulin, C‐peptide and insulin were elevated, whereas the disposition index was lower in women with p‐GDM and IIS compared with women with p‐GDM and NIS and the controls (P < 0·001). Plasma levels of fibrinogen and vWF did not differ between the groups. Obese women with IIS had higher PAI‐1 levels than lean women with IIS (P ≤ 0·001). PAI‐1 inversely correlated with the insulin sensitivity index (SI) but only in women with IIS (P < 0·0001). On regression analysis, only fasting proinsulin and WHR remained significant independent predictors of PAI‐1 elevation in IIS (P ≤ 0·0001 and P ≤ 0·001). The PAI‐1/SI ratio was elevated in women with IIS independently of their glucose tolerance status (P < 0·001 vs. NIS and controls).Conclusions  Plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 is elevated in p‐GDM women with IIS and depends on plasma proinsulin and abdominal obesity. An increase of the PAI‐1/SI ratio further characterizes obese insulin‐resistant p‐GDM women who may be at risk for diabetes and angiopathy.
