The Late Positive Event-Related Potential Component is Time-Locked to the Decision in Recognition Memory Tasks
Authors: Sun Jie , Osth Adam F. , Feuerriegel Daniel 
Published: December 2023

AbstractTwo event-related potential (ERP) components are commonly observed in recognition memory tasks: the Frontal Negativity (FN400) and the Late Positive Component (LPC). These components are widely interpreted as neural correlates of familiarity and recollection, respectively. However, the interpretation of LPC effects is complicated by inconsistent results regarding the timing of ERP amplitude differences. There are also mixed findings regarding how LPC amplitudes covary with decision confidence. Critically, LPC effects have almost always been measured using fixed time windows relative to memory probe stimulus onset, yet it has not been determined whether LPC effects are time-locked to the stimulus or the recognition memory decision. To investigate this, we analysed a large (n=l32) existing dataset recorded during recognition memory tasks with post-decisional confidence ratings. We used ERP deconvolution to disentangle contributions to LPC effects (defined as differences between hits and correct rejections) that were time-locked to either the stimulus or the vocal old/new response. We identified a left-lateralised parietal LPC effect that was time-locked to the vocal response rather than probe stimulus onset. We also isolated a response-locked, midline parietal ERP correlate of confidence that influenced measures of LPC amplitudes at left parietal electrodes. Our findings demonstrate that, contrary to widespread assumptions, the LPC effect is time-locked to the recognition memory decision and is best measured using response-locked ERPs. By extension, differences in response time distributions across conditions of interest may lead to substantial measurement biases when analysing stimulus-locked ERPs. Our findings highlight important confounding factors that further complicate the interpretation of existing stimulus-locked LPC effects as neural correlates of recollection. We recommend that future studies adopt our analytic approach to better isolate LPC effects and their sensitivity to manipulations in recognition memory tasks.

AbstractAMPA glutamate receptors (AMPARs) enable rapid excitatory synaptic transmission by localizing to the postsynaptic density of glutamatergic spines. AMPARs possess large extracellular N-terminal domains (NTDs), which participate in AMPAR clustering at synapses. Nevertheless, the dynamics of NTDs and the molecular mechanism governing their synaptic clustering remain elusive. Here, we employed high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) to directly visualize the conformational dynamics of NTDs in the GluA2 subunit with TARP γ2 in lipid environments. HS-AFM videos of GluA2-γ2 in the resting and open states revealed fluctuations in NTD dimers. Conversely, in the desensitized state, the two NTD dimers adopted a separated conformation with less fluctuation. Notably, we visualized individual NTD dimers transitioning into monomers. Furthermore, this NTD-dimer splitting resulted in intersubunit exchange between NTD dimers and an increased number of binding sites with the synaptic protein neuronal pentraxin 1. Therefore, our findings illuminate the significance of NTD dynamics in the synaptic clustering of AMPARs.

Published: December 2023

AbstractSocial interactions influence disease spread, information flow, and resource allocation across species, yet heterogeneity in social interaction frequency and its fitness consequences remain poorly understood. Additionally, animals can utilize plant metabolites for purposes beyond nutrition, but whether that shapes social networks is unclear. Here, we investigated how non-nutritive plant metabolites impact social interactions and the lifespan of the turnip sawfly,Athalia rosae. Adult sawflies acquire neo-clerodane diterpenoids (’clerodanoids’) from non-food plants, showing intraspecific variation in natural populations and laboratory-reared individuals. Clerodanoids can also be transferred between conspecifics, leading to increased agonistic social interactions. Network analysis indicated increased social interactions in sawfly groups where some or all individuals had prior access to clerodanoids. Social interaction frequency varied with clerodanoid status, with fitness costs including reduced lifespan resulting from increased interactions. Our findings highlight the role of intraspecific variation in the acquisition of non-nutritional plant metabolites in shaping social networks, with fitness implications on individual social niches.
Factors shaping spectators’ consumption patterns: controversial arisings from an international sport tourism event
Authors: Mascarenhas Margarida , Vieira Henrique , Martins Rute 
Published: December 2023

Purpose
Sport events’ contribution to the destinations’ local economy implies in-depth knowledge of the economic benefits generated by non-resident spectators (NRS). Thus, this study aims to answer: What is the profile and shaping factors of the consumption patterns of the several types of NRS in international surf tourism events?

Design/methodology/approach
A total of 263 questionnaires applied to the NRS of an international surf event were collected and analysed. The identification of the NRS profile and the predictive factors of their total expenditure were performed through the correlation of factors and multiple linear regression, respectively.

Findings
Mostly, the event attracted generation Y NRS, with a high level of education and regular sport practice. The results showed differences among the NRS: the “casuals” included more women than men; the “extensioners” integrated the NRS whose surfing practice is higher; the “event visitors”/”time switchers” mostly integrated the domestic tourism flows; the “casuals” and “extensioners” spent the most at the destination, and those whose intention to recommend/revisit the destination, respectively, was higher; and the shaping factor that most influenced the increase in NRS expenditure was the overnight stay, added by older age, higher education level and foreign origin.

Originality/value
Regardless of the initial motivation that led to the trip to the destination, the results verified that the event’s attributes are capable of contributing to the recommendation/visitation of the destination. Consequently, the study of economic benefits (tangible and intangible) provided by sport events in destinations should be guided by an integrative analysis of NRS.
Analysing the relevance of value creation in the interconnection amongst entrepreneurship, marketing and innovation: a systematic literature review
Authors: Risitano Marcello , La Ragione Giuseppe , Turi Alessandra , Ferretti Marco 
Published: December 2023

PurposeThe purpose of this article is to better understand the relevance of value creation in the interconnection amongst entrepreneurship, marketing and innovation by reviewing the literature.Design/methodology/approachThe authors employed a systematic review methodology using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) protocol to analyse the literature in depth. The articles were selected from the Scopus database and dated from 1987 to 2021. An initial total of 1,158 articles was successively narrowed down to a final list of 123 papers matching the selection criteria. Moreover, content analysis on the sample was performed to explore and analyse whether value creation directly or indirectly appears as a goal or antecedent amongst entrepreneurship, marketing and innovation.FindingsThe findings suggest that the literature does not clearly define the topic linkage, and with the authors' results, the authors provide a comprehensive mapping of the contributions to a theoretical framework that synthesises knowledge. Moreover, the authors highlight that the interconnection between marketing and entrepreneurship, i.e. entrepreneurial marketing, requires an innovative approach for satisfying customer needs and creating value. Co-occurrence analysis of the keywords also allowed to identify four clusters that were open to new research streams.Originality/valueEntrepreneurship, marketing and innovation are recognised research topics in the business and management literature. However, prior research has not provided clear and comprehensive evidence about how these three research topics are linked to each other. This work analyses the hidden relationship amongst them.
Forensic mental health assessments of juvenile misdemeanor cases involving demoralization (status offenses) and delinquency
Authors: Rode Danuta , Kabzińska Joanna , Rode Magdalena , Habzda-Siwek Ewa , Boduszek Daniel 
Published: December 2023

Purpose
The role of evidence-based psychological knowledge in cases of juvenile offending is essential to make appropriate decisions relating to youth who violate legal or social norms, as it carries implications for treatment, intervention and practice. Psychological expert opinions therefore need to meet high formal and methodological requirements while maintaining ethical standards. The purpose of this study is to investigate psychological expert opinions in cases of juvenile misbehavior reported to regional courts in Poland. Juvenile court proceedings concern cases of demoralization and/or delinquent offenses. Demoralization is a legal concept described in the Act of June 9, 2022 on juvenile support and resocialization. This concept was not defined; it was only described through examples of behaviors indicating demoralization. These include the following: violations of the principles of community life; evading compulsory education or schooling; use of alcohol, narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances, their precursors, substitutes or new psychoactive substances; and prostitution.

Design/methodology/approach
To reach these goals, court records of juvenile cases in six district courts (N = 253) were gathered and analyzed. A semistructured questionnaire was used to examine the cases in which psychologists were appointed and to analyze the procedures used by these experts for assessing adolescents and their families.

Findings
Findings revealed that family judges appoint psychologists both in cases of “demoralization” (i.e. status offenses) and in cases of juvenile delinquency. The opinions were delivered by psychologists who were mostly members of diagnostic teams. Results indicate that such opinions generally comply with the minimal standards recommended by the Ministry of Justice, yet a few problems were observed with the determination of levels of demoralization.

Originality/value
The limitations of diagnostic tools used by psychologists are discussed, and recommendations for future practice are provided.
HR analytics-as-practice: a systematic literature review
Authors: Espegren Yanina , Hugosson Mårten 
Published: December 2023

PurposeHuman resource analytics (HRA) is an HR activity that companies and academics increasingly pay attention to. Existing literature conceptualises HRA mostly from an objectivist perspective, which limits understanding of actual HRA activities in the complex organisational environment. This paper therefore draws on the practice-based approach, using a novel framework to conceptualise HRA-as-practice.Design/methodology/approachThe authors conducted a systematic literature review of 100 academic and practitioner-oriented publications to analyse existing HRA literature in relation to practice theory, using the “HRA-as-practice” frame.FindingsThe authors identify the main practices involved in HRA, by whom and how these practices are enacted, and reveal three topics in nomological network of HRA-as-practice: HRA technology, HRA outcomes and HRA hindrances and facilitators, which the authors suggest might actualize enactment of HRA practices.Practical implicationsThe authors offer HR function and HR professionals a basic ground to evaluate HRA as a highly contextual activity that can potentially generate business value and increase HR impact when seen as a complex interaction between HRA practices, HRA practitioners and HRA praxis. The findings also help HR practitioners understand multiple factors that influence the practice of HRA.Originality/valueThis systematic review differs from the previous reviews in two ways. First, it analyses both academic and practitioner-oriented publications. Second, it provides a novel theoretical contribution by conceptualising HRA-as-practice and comprehensively compiling scattered topics and themes related to HRA.
Telework and job satisfaction in knowledge-intensive public organizations: a quali-quantitative analysis from an environmental protection agency in Italy
Authors: Giacomelli Giorgio , Annesi Nora , Barbieri Marta 
Published: December 2023

PurposeThe study aims to examine the relationship between telework conditions and employees' job satisfaction (JS) within knowledge-intensive public organizations (KIPOs). Additionally, it aims to unfold the mediating role played by both organizational and job characteristics, namely supervisory support (SS) and job autonomy (JA).Design/methodology/approachThe analysis adopts a simultaneous qualitative-quantitative design, starting with a preliminary inductive analysis of qualitative data, followed by a deductive quantitative analysis using structural equation modeling (SEM). The data were retrieved from a survey completed by some 700 employees of a regional environmental protection agency in Italy.FindingsFindings show that the positive association between conditions for telework (CT) and JS is partially mediated by both SS and JA. Moreover, the results of the study suggest a sequential nature of such mediational patterns.Originality/valueThis research provides an empirical contribution to a relatively under-investigated area: the role of job characteristics in explaining the nexus between telework and JS. Furthermore, the study takes place within the context of a KIPO, adding particular significance to the emerging insights due to the distinct nature of the work conducted in such settings.
Citizens’ intention toward sustainable tourism through integrating protection motivation theory (PMT) and theory of interpersonal behavior (TIB)
Authors: Nguyen Van Hau , Nguyen Thi Phuong Linh , Nguyen Thi Thu Phuong , Nguyen Thi Viet Ha 
Published: December 2023

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the factors affecting citizens’ intentions toward sustainable tourism based on a research model integrating two theories: protection motivation theory (PMT) and theory of interpersonal behavior (TIB).

Design/methodology/approach
After in-depth interviews with ten people, the authors determined the official research model and builds a complete survey. With the random sampling method, data were collected from 628 Vietnamese respondents at some schools, enterprises and supermarkets. Using the PLS-SEM method, measurement and structural models were evaluated before testing the research hypotheses about the influence of factors on intention toward sustainable tourism.

Findings
This paper shows that all constructs of the integrated model PMT-TIB are related to intention toward sustainable tourism, and response efficacy is the most influential factor among the factors included in the research model. PMT-TIB integration model is proven to be superior to the original PMT and TIB models when studying factors affecting intention toward sustainable tourism.

Research limitations/implications
The main limitation of this paper is that the PMT-TIB integration model only mentions motivational and interpersonal factors that influence intention toward sustainable tourism.

Practical implications
The findings indicate that state management agencies and enterprises need to develop specific action programs about each harmful environmental pollution caused by unsustainable tourism, raising awareness about the possibility of environmental protection through sustainable tourism.

Originality/value
This study contributes to the existing theoretical framework by integrating PMT and TIB for the first time in explaining intention toward sustainable tourism. This paper gives implications for Vietnam in particular and developing countries in general in promoting sustainable tourism intentions toward sustainable development according to the government’s goals.
Finite element investigation on the post-fire behavior of reinforced composite NSC-HPC slabs
Authors: Zalhaf Nagat , Ghazy Mariam , Abdelatty Metwali , Zakaria Mohamed Hamed 
Published: December 2023

Purpose
Even though it is widely used, reinforced concrete (RC) is susceptible to damage from various environmental factors. The hazard of a fire attack is particularly severe because it may cause the whole structure to collapse. Furthermore, repairing and strengthening existing structures with high-performance concrete (HPC) has become essential from both technical and financial points of view. In particular, studying the postfire behavior of HPC with normal strength concrete substrate requires experimental and numerical investigations. Accordingly, this study aims to numerically investigate the post-fire behavior of reinforced composite RC slabs.

Design/methodology/approach
Consequently, in this study, a numerical analysis was carried out to ascertain the flexural behavior of simply supported RC slabs strengthened with HPC and exposed to a particularly high temperature of 600°C for 2 h. This behavior was investigated and analyzed in the presence of a number of parameters, such as HPC types (fiber-reinforced, 0.5% steel, polypropylene fibers [PPF], hybrid fibers), strengthening side (tension or compression), strengthening layer thickness, slab thickness, boundary conditions, reinforcement ratio and yield strength of reinforcement.

Findings
The results showed that traction-separation and full-bond models can achieve accuracy compared with experimental results. Also, the fiber type significantly affects the postfire performance of RC slab strengthened with HPC, where the inclusion of hybrid fiber recorded the highest ultimate load. While adding PPF to HPC showed a rapid decrease in the load-deflection curve after reaching the ultimate load.

Originality/value
The proposed model accurately predicted the thermomechanical behavior of RC slabs strengthened with HPC after being exposed to the fire regarding load-deflection response, crack pattern and failure mode. Moreover, the considered independent parametric variables significantly affect the composite slabs’ behavior.
Mesocorticolimbic function in cocaine polydrug users: A multimodal study of drug cue reactivity and cognitive regulation
Authors: Scala Stephanie G. , Kang Min Su , Cox Sylvia M. L. , Rosa‐Neto Pedro , Massarweh Gassan , Leyton Marco 
Published: December 2023

AbstractAddictions are thought to be fostered by the emergence of poorly regulated mesocorticolimbic responses to drug‐related cues. The development and persistence of these responses might be promoted by altered glutamate transmission, including changes to type 5 metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR5s). Unknown, however, is when these changes arise and whether the mGluR5 and mesocorticolimbic alterations are related. To investigate, non‐dependent cocaine polydrug users and cocaine‐naïve healthy controls underwent a positron emission tomography scan (15 cocaine users and 14 healthy controls) with [11C]ABP688, and a functional magnetic resonance imaging scan (15/group) while watching videos depicting activities with and without cocaine use. For some drug videos, participants were instructed to use a cognitive strategy to lower craving. Both groups exhibited drug cue‐induced mesocorticolimbic activations and these were larger in the cocaine polydrug users than healthy controls during the session's second half. During the cognitive regulation trials, the cocaine users' corticostriatal responses were reduced. [11C]ABP688 binding was unaltered in cocaine users, relative to healthy controls, but post hoc analyses found reductions in those with 75 or more lifetime cocaine use sessions. Finally, among cocaine users (n = 12), individual differences in prefrontal [11C]ABP688 binding were associated with midbrain and limbic region activations during the regulation trials. Together, these preliminary findings raise the possibility that (i) recreational polydrug cocaine users show biased brain processes towards cocaine‐related cues and (ii) repeated cocaine use can lower cortical mGluR5 levels, diminishing the ability to regulate drug cue responses. These alterations might promote susceptibility to addiction and identify early intervention targets.
Smoking, vaping and drinking: A qualitative analysis of Aotearoa New Zealand young adults who tried e‐cigarettes to stop smoking tobacco
Authors: Blank Mei‐Ling , Hoek Janet 
Published: December 2023

AbstractBackground and aimSocial practices such as smoking–drinking co‐use often go ‘hand‐in‐hand’, linked by the coordination of materials, skills and meanings. However, the experience of using e‐cigarettes while drinking among people who smoke (and drink) remains underexplored. We used social practice theory to show how smoking, vaping and drinking intersect and to explain how vaping created two new social practices among people who tried e‐cigarettes to stop smoking: ‘vaping–drinking’ co‐use and ‘smoking–vaping–drinking’ poly‐use.MethodsWe conducted five in‐depth interviews over 18–24 weeks during 2018–19, with each of nine Aotearoa New Zealand young adults aged 20–29 years. Participants smoked daily, did not regularly use e‐cigarettes at entry and wished to try vaping to stop smoking. We analysed participants’ reports of smoking or vaping while drinking using thematic analysis.ResultsIndividual participants reported both co‐use and poly‐use occasions throughout the study. Vaping–drinking co‐use arose from practice ‘replacement’ processes, where vaping fully substituted smoking. Smoking–vaping–drinking poly‐use arose from ‘adjacency’ processes where vaping complemented smoking. Participants used both processes flexibly over time, which required new skills in material, temporal, pleasure and social coordination to try to recreate valued meanings of comfort, security and communality associated with well‐established smoking–drinking practices. Unsuccessful coordination attempts maintained smoking–drinking co‐use.ConclusionAmong Aotearoa New Zealand young adult smokers who want to use vaping to stop smoking, drinking occasions may help to maintain existing smoking–drinking practices and facilitate the development of vaping–drinking co‐use and smoking–vaping–drinking poly‐use practices, potentially prolonging individuals’ exposure to smoking.
