Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTThe acceptance of artificial intelligence (AI) in academic settings, particularly in the context of research creativity, is a growing area of interest. This study aimed to design and validate the AI Acceptance and Research Creativity Scale (AIA&RCS) among faculty members. This exploratory mixed‐method was conducted among 720 faculty members. A literature review and participant interviews were conducted in the qualitative phase to generate and develop items. In the quantitative phase, face validity, content validity, construct validity, convergent validity and reliability (internal consistency and stability) were used. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) indicated a 4‐factor model of the scale with ‘perceived usefulness and effectiveness of AI in research creativity’, ‘ethical issues in research’, ‘trusted in AI capabilities’ and ‘willingness to use AI’ accounting for 51.6% of the variance. This arrangement was verified by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), with fit indices that were at suitable levels. Then, the network analysis took into account the four‐factor structure of AIA&RCS further. Similarly, the exploratory graph analysis (EGA) indicated the four‐factor configuration of the AIA&RCS. The 25‐item scale is well‐suited for measuring AI acceptance and research innovation among faculty because of its psychometrics.
The Impact of School Service Quality on Student Learning Satisfaction: A Comparative Study of Public and Private High Schools in China

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTThis study examined the relationship between school service quality and student learning satisfaction in public and private high schools in China, considering the influence of students' socioeconomic background and household registration location. A comparative study was conducted using a questionnaire administered to 22,588 students in 20 districts in X City in China. Following the structural equation modelling (SEM), the study found that four factors of school service quality (e.g. reliability, responsiveness, assurance and empathy) positively influenced student learning satisfaction in both public and private high schools. Additionally, measurement invariance was maintained across different school types, socioeconomic background and household registration location, which validates the comparability of data across these diverse groups. Latent mean comparison revealed that students from private high schools and those from higher socioeconomic backgrounds experienced greater satisfaction with school services quality and learning experience than their peers in public schools and those from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. The study emphasised the need for educational policies that address these disparities to improve the quality of education in public schools and support students from less advantaged backgrounds. Such policies are crucial for promoting equitable educational opportunities and enhancing overall student satisfaction.
Telepathy, Other Minds, and Category Errors
Authors: Motta Sébastien 
Published: January 2025

AbstractIn this paper, I explore several issues surrounding what is called “telepathy” in the context of the problem of other minds. I begin with a quick review of the conditions in which this notion arose and the difficulties to which it gave rise upon its introduction. This review will allow me, after having shown that the notion of telepathy provides no path to the problem's solution, to draw a distinction between two discursive levels: an epistemological or ontological level, on the one hand, and a semantic or logical level, on the other. I maintain that it is at the second level that the deepest and most intractable difficulties relating to the “powers of the mind” arise. These difficulties occupy a blind spot in discussions involving the notion of telepathy (Alan Turing will provide a striking illustration of this). Finally, I suggest that this pseudo‐solution (telepathy) is at root a response to a pseudo‐problem—the inaccessibility of other minds—since the difficulties with the intelligibility of telepathy are parallel to those with which the problem of “other minds” is freighted.
Exploring pre‐ and in‐employment experiences of refugees in Germany: A Bourdieusian approach

Published: January 2025

AbstractEmployment is crucial to the integration of refugees in host countries. Using Bourdieu's theory of practice and data from interviews with refugees, employment agency representatives, and managers, we examine these issues through two complementary studies conducted in Germany. Study I explores how refugees experience the recognition of their academic and professional credentials while seeking employment, Study II examines the question of how various actors, including employment agencies, employers, and colleagues, contribute to the development of relevant cultural capital. Our finding show that refugees' pre‐ and in‐employment experiences are largely shaped by their foreignness and by national institutions' protectionism. Even where foreign qualifications are formally recognized, employers invoke criteria such as the lack of local professional experience. While this research echoes the theory of practice by showing the limited capacity of refugees to access and accumulate capital, our analysis shows that while the collaborative efforts of different actors can provide information and guidance‐related benefits, they offer limited support to refugees to access or utilize forms of capital to advance employment effectively.
Role Incongruity of Women in United States Law Enforcement: A National Survey Exploring Global and Specific Resistance in a Gendered Organization
Authors: Garcia Venessa 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTSince the 1990s, there has been a lot of research on women in policing and resistance to their entry into the field. Much of the research has examined specific resistance (i.e., individualized resistance based on perceived performance), whereas fewer studies today examine global resistance (i.e., resistance to women police in general). Applying role congruity theory, global and specific resistance by men coworkers, administrators, and the public was examined for a national sample of 358 women in United States law enforcement. It was found that women in law enforcement received slightly more global resistance from the public, whereas men coworkers displayed more specific resistance, and specific resistance was more likely to occur in areas related to the perceived ability of women to handle a masculine job. Multivariate analyses revealed that law enforcement remains a gendered organization with continued role incongruity for women.
Influence of HLA‐B Leader (−21M/T) Dimorphism With Bw4/Bw6 Epitopes on Graft Versus Host Disease After Allogenic Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in North Indians

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTHigh degree of variability in human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) system restricts availability of histocompatible HLA‐matched‐related donors, thus increasing reliance on worldwide bone marrow registries network. Nevertheless, due to limited coverage/accessibility/affordability of some ethnicities in these registries, haploidentical haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) emerged as an alternative option, though with allorecognition‐mediated graft versus host disease (GvHD) (>40% cases). A dimorphism [−21 methionine (M) or threonine (T)] in HLA‐B leader peptide (exon 1) which differentially influences its HLA‐E binding, plausibly regulates natural killer cell functionality, affecting GvHD vulnerability and clinically in practice for donor selection. Here, we analysed population‐specific influence of this functionally relevant dimorphism on post HSCT GvHD occurrence and clinical utility (if any) towards defining donor permissibility. High resolution HLA‐B genotyping data were analysed in 178 study participants, including 89 HSCT patient–donor pairs, for the frequency distribution of −21 leader dimorphism. Distribution of HLA‐Bw4/Bw6 was deduced with killer cell immunoglobulin receptor ligand calculator tool in IPD‐IMGT/HLA database. Though −21T (∼85%) was over represented in the study participants, no significant influence is observed for this variant between HLA‐identical v/s haplo HSCT either with or without GvHD, at allelic and genotypic levels as well as in BLEAT (HLA‐B Leader Assessment Tool)‐based donor–recipient matching. Stratified analysis of −21 M/T into Bw4/Bw6 groups revealed a higher frequency of −21T + Bw4 in GvHD (+) group compared to GvHD (−) (p < 0.05), plausibly linking this haplotype with occurrence of GvHD post HSCT and importance of HLA class I‐mediated NK cell functionality in GvHD.

IntroductionWe investigated the subsequent trends in age and antithrombotic therapy in patients who underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) and examined the rate of perioperative complications.MethodsMedical records of patients who underwent TURBT were retrospectively analyzed. We arbitrarily divided the observation years into three periods (I: 2007–2013, II: 2014–2018, and III: 2019–2023) to compare the trends in age and frequency of perioperative complications after TURBT between patients taking and those not taking antithrombotic drugs.ResultsThe number of patients who underwent TURBT was 173, 224, and 224 in periods I, II, and III, respectively. The proportion of patients receiving antithrombotic drugs was similar among the three periods (34.1%, 29.9%, and 37.5% in periods I, II, and III, respectively). The percentage of patients taking antithrombotic medications who were aged ≥80 was gradually increasing. The usage of warfarin (25.4%, 13%, and 4.2% in periods I, II, and III, respectively) and aspirin (65.1%, 40.3%, and 32.3% in periods I, II, and III, respectively) was decreased, whereas direct oral anticoagulant (1.6%, 18.2%, and 35.4% in periods I, II, and III, respectively) and clopidogrel (4.8%, 15.6%, and 16.7% in periods I, II, and III, respectively) administrations was increased. The rate of hemorrhagic and cardiocirculatory complications was higher in patients receiving antithrombotic drugs than in patients not receiving them. Of the patients receiving antithrombotic therapy, two patients with a history of cardiac infarction and deep vein thrombosis passed away after TURBT due to ischemic heart disease.ConclusionThe age of patients receiving antithrombotic drugs has increased, and antithrombotic drug types have changed among those who underwent TURBT. Further attention to hemorrhagic and lethal cardiocirculatory complications after TURBT will be required in a super‐aged society.

AbstractBackgroundAlthough disasters continue to increase all over the world and international nursing organizations warn nurses to be ready for disasters, it is stated that the training of nurses for disasters is inadequate in Turkey as in many countries, and studies on this subject are limitedAimThis study aimed to explore the relationship between disaster preparedness perception, self‐efficacy, and psychological capital among Turkish nurses.MethodsThis cross‐sectional study was conducted with 270 nurses working at a university hospital in Turkey from May 2023 to December 2023.ResultsThe mean Disaster Preparedness Perception Scale, General Self‐Efficacy Scale, and Psychological Capital Questionnaire scores of the nurses were 73.19 ± 11.06, 31.24 ± 3.89, and 98.05 ± 11.35, respectively. According to linear regression analysis, self‐efficacy, psychological capital, receiving disaster training, and being exposed to disaster were significant predictive factors that affected disaster preparedness perception.ConclusionTo improve nurses' disaster preparedness, it is vital to strengthen their self‐efficacy and psychological capital through various strategies.Implications for nursing policyManagers should identify individual and organizational barriers that affect nurses' readiness for disasters, prepare nurses for all stages of disaster management through continuous training, scenario‐based simulation exercises and drills, and create a disaster management culture in the organization.
Dragons in Action: Psychological Barriers as Mediators of the Relationship Between Environmental Value Orientation and Pro‐Environmental Behaviour
Authors: Sobotová Beáta , Šrol Jakub , Adamus Magdalena 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTThis study investigates to what extent the ‘green gap,’ that is, the disconnection between environmental values and pro‐environmental behaviour, can be explained by various perceived psychological barriers. A large representative sample of Slovak participants (N = 1233) filled in several measures of environmental value orientation, perceived psychological barriers and self‐reported pro‐environmental behaviour. The parallel mediation models revealed that environmental value orientation predicts engagement in pro‐environmental behaviour, and this relationship is partially mediated by certain psychological barriers, yet the role of the specific barriers varied substantially with different types of behaviour. Overall, however, the explained variance in pro‐environmental behaviour was relatively modest (up to 31%), suggesting the presence of other important social, psychological, and structural variables as predictors in this regard. Our findings emphasize the intricate role of psychological barriers and demographic factors in shaping environmental actions. Understanding these complexities can help design targeted interventions to bridge the ‘green gap’ effectively.
The nuclear DNA and RNA distribution in Pelomyxa spp. (Amoebozoa, Archamoebae, Pelobiontida) revealed by a simple‐to‐use DAPI/pyronin staining method

Published: January 2025

AbstractThe genus Pelomyxa includes 15 species of anaerobic Archamoebae with remarkable diverse nucleoplasm morphology. Nuclear structures, like chromatin and nucleoli, of several members of the genus was previously identified only based on their ultrastructural similarity to typical structures of somatic cells of higher eukaryotes. Here, we explored an easy‐to‐use, one‐step intravital staining method with DAPI and pyronin to distinguish between DNA and RNA structures in nuclei of unfixed cells of Pelomyxa belevskii and P. stagnalis significantly varying by nuclear organization. Our method can be used for rapid diagnosis of DNA and RNA‐containing structures in species with complex nuclear organization.

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTInfections with bacteria of the genus Pasteurella have increased in occurrence in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) farms in Norway since 2018. This increase coincides with increased use of non‐medicinal treatments against the parasitic salmon louse, Lepeophtheirus salmonis, in the farms. Here, we analysed the statistical association between the use of non‐medicinal delousing methods and pasteurellosis in salmon farming in western Norway, from 2018 to 2023. The analysed data covered 1161 production cycles from 356 farming localities, in which Pasteurella was detected in 166 production cycles from 115 localities. Results showed that in months with one or more thermal delousing using heated water to remove the lice, the odds for detection of Pasteurella were 2.5 times as high as in months with no delousing (95% credible interval, c.i.: 1.8, 3.6). In months with one or more mechanical delousing involving brushing or flushing, the odds were 1.8 times as high as in months with no delousing (c.i.: 1.04, 2.9). Delousing with freshwater was not associated with increased odds for Pasteurella. The odds for Pasteurella increased with increasing salmon weight and following a Pasteurella diagnosis in the previous production cycle. These results indicate that the use of thermal and mechanical delousing may play a role in maintaining the current pasteurellosis situation in western Norway, and that freshwater delousing may be a favourable alternative in this respect.

ABSTRACTYoghurt, a widely consumed fermented dairy product, requires precise control of incubation and cooling conditions to ensure optimal fermentation and product quality. Small and medium‐scale yoghurt manufactures often face challenges in maintaining consistent temperature and pH during fermentation, leading to inconsistencies in texture, flavor, and acidity. This study addresses the problem by developing a pH‐controlled automatic thermal modulation unit. The system was designed with a goal to integrate incubation and cooling in a single system. Process simulation was used to ascertain uniform air velocity and temperature distribution. The expert pH controller monitors the fermentation conditions during yoghurt production by maintaining incubation temperatures at 40°C and once set pH is attained, the system automatically switches from incubation mode to cooling mode. The system rapidly cooled yoghurt to 4°C within 90 min halting further lactic acid production. Experimental results demonstrated uniform temperature distribution across the chamber, allowing uniform fermentation and preventing temperature‐related inconsistencies in the final product. Various textural, chemical and sensorial parameters showed significant enhancement in yoghurt produced in the automated system compared to traditionally produced yoghurt. The developed system offers several advantages by seamlessly integrating automation with both incubation and cooling processes, like reducing the overall process time, minimizing handling and operational complexities, which helps to prevent defects such as uneven texture and excessive acidity. Additionally, the system's adaptable design allows it to be customized for other fermented dairy products, providing a versatile, automated and efficient solution for small to medium‐scale dairy producers.
Consensus, Need Fulfillment, Commitment, and Satisfaction in Couple Relationships: Structural Equation Modeling
Authors: Park Cheolwoo , Harris Victor W. 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTThis study investigated a hypothesized model underlying the association between consensus on common topics in couple relationships and romantic relationship satisfaction, while investigating the roles of the need fulfillment of romantic partners and relationship commitment (i.e., dedication commitment) among a sample of 183 adults from the southeastern United States. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was conducted to test the theoretical model regarding how intimate partner/spouse consensus is associated with romantic relationship satisfaction. The results of SEM and path analyses revealed a good fit for the proposed structure, revealing that consensus on important issues in couple relationships was significantly linked with their engagement in fulfilling their partners' different needs. Engagement in helping fulfill romantic partners' needs and relationship commitment mediated the association between partner/spouse consensus and romantic relationship satisfaction. Implications for family life educators, dyadic couple researchers, and practitioners in marriage and family therapy are discussed.

AbstractBackgroundEvolving evidence suggests that patients undergoing treatment with Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) may face an increased risk of cardiovascular events, malignancies, and serious infections.ObjectivesWe assessed cardiovascular, malignancy, and serious infection risks associated with JAKi use compared to tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) use, which served as the active comparator, in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or ulcerative colitis (UC).MethodsThis study emulated a target trial using South Korea's nationwide claims database (2013–2023). We constructed two separate cohorts comprising new users of JAKi or TNFi with either RA or UC and performed overlap weighting to control for confounders. Outcomes included three‐point‐major adverse cardiovascular events (3P‐MACE) (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, and stroke), malignancy, and serious infection. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI).ResultsThe RA cohort included 14,972 patients, with 4759 initiating JAKi. The UC cohort included 2085 patients, with 347 initiating JAKi. In the overall RA cohort, the weighted HR was 0.92 (95% CI 0.59–1.42) for 3P‐MACE, 1.61 (1.08–2.41) for malignancy, and 1.08 (0.94–1.23) for serious infection. In the overall UC cohort, the weighted HR was 0.98 (0.11–8.42) and 0.45 (0.26–0.78) for malignancy and serious infection, respectively. No 3P‐MACE cases were observed in JAKi users.ConclusionsJAKis were associated with an elevated risk of malignancy but no significant difference in the risk of 3P‐MACE and serious infection among all patients with RA. Further data are needed regarding the risk of malignancy and 3P‐MACE in patients with UC.

Published: January 2025

AbstractResearch on adolescence occurs across a variety of disciplines, including education, psychology, sociology, public health, biology, and medicine, among other fields, each with its own definition of the most pressing problems, levels of analysis, and proposed solutions. There is widespread recognition that human development occurs across levels simultaneously from molecular changes to broader cultural systems. Yet it remains challenging to integrate across levels and scholarly disciplines. This article crystallizes a definition of interdisciplinary research, highlights examples of interdisciplinary career trajectories, and showcases a collection of interdisciplinary empirical and theoretical articles. This special collection serves as a call to action for the difficult work of breaking down scholarly and practical barriers to utilize interdisciplinary research in addressing critical scientific questions and societal needs to improve the well‐being and developmental outcomes for all adolescents.
