The correlation between honesty-humility and attitude toward counterfeit luxury
Authors: Reinhardt Nina , Reinhard Marc-André , Bittner-Fäthke Gerrit 
Published: October 2023

AbstractThis research focuses on the relation between Honesty-Humility and attitude toward counterfeit luxury. Honesty-Humility is defined as the tendency to be fair in dealing with others. Given that the act of knowingly purchasing a counterfeit could be judged as morally questionable, immodest, and manipulative, we predicted that people lower in Honesty-Humility would report more positive attitudes toward counterfeit luxury. Given that related research from behavioral research revealed Honesty-Humility to be the key predictor for unethical behavior, we further predicted this association to remain robust even when controlling for relevant control variables (i.e., self-concept, risk aversion, materialism, and Honesty-Propriety). As expected, two preregistered online studies (Study 1: N = 566; Study 2: N = 501) revealed that people with higher Honesty-Humility scores reported more of a negative attitude toward counterfeit luxury. This effect was mainly driven by the Fairness-facet of Honesty-Humility, and only materialism proved to be a further significant predictor for attitude toward counterfeit consumption. The role of the Honesty-Humility factor in research on counterfeit consumption is discussed, directions for future research are given, and as practical implication, first approaches are developed that possible intervention campaigns against counterfeit consumption should consider.

Published: October 2023

AbstractWith the increasing number of space satellites, the demand for satellite communication (including maneuvering, command uploading and data downloading) has also grown significantly. However, the actual communication resources of ground station are relatively limited, which leads to an oversubscribed problem. How to make use of limited ground station resources to complete satellite communication requests more fully and efficiently in the strict visible time is the focus of satellite range scheduling research. This paper reviews and looks forward to the research on Satellite Range Scheduling Problem (SRSP). Firstly, SRSP is defined as the scheduling problem of establishing communication between satellites and ground stations, and the classification and development of SRSP are introduced. Then, this paper analyzes three common problem description models, and establishes a mathematical model based on the analysis of optimization objectives and constraints. Thirdly, this paper classifies and summarizes the common solving methods of SRSP, and analyzes their characteristics and application scenarios. Finally, combined with the work in this paper, the future research direction of SRSP is envisioned.

Published: October 2023

AbstractThe surface properties of nanomaterials are an important consideration in most scientific and technological applications. Several methodologies can maneuver these properties while surface modification is the most common technique. Carbon Dots (CDs) are viable competitive materials for their pacific environment, chemical inertness, tunable photoluminescence, low cost, eco-friendliness, biocompatibility, schematic surface functionalization, and sophisticated utilization in nanomaterial’s surface modification. The nanoparticle surface attribute is modified for a specific purpose to use in several applications by dint of the tunable properties of CDs. Multifunctional CDs have a great potential to replace traditionally toxic and costly quantum dots through surface modification. This review presents how multifunctional CDs conjugated with other nanoparticles take an active part in medicine and biomedical fields with chemical and physical collaborations. Moreover, the basics of conjugate formation by different chemical and physical interactions of functional molecules are appraised from multiple perspectives. This article also describes different modification mechanisms followed by properties of the modified nano-conjugates. The surface modification affects fluorescence quantum yields, complexation potential, fluorescent coloring, and quenching capabilities. Resultant-modified nanoconjugates are powerful surfaces for drug delivery, biosensing, bioimaging, analysis, and therapeutic methods. Finally, the most fruitful current challenges and further possibilities are discussed in the conclusion section.

Representatives of similarity classes of matrices over PIDs corresponding to ideal classes
Authors: Knight Lucy , Stasinski Alexander 
Published: October 2023

AbstractFor a principal ideal domain
$A$
, the Latimer–MacDuffee correspondence sets up a bijection between the similarity classes of matrices in
$\textrm{M}_{n}(A)$
with irreducible characteristic polynomial
$f(x)$
and the ideal classes of the order
$A[x]/(f(x))$
. We prove that when
$A[x]/(f(x))$
is maximal (i.e. integrally closed, i.e. a Dedekind domain), then every similarity class contains a representative that is, in a sense, close to being a companion matrix. The first step in the proof is to show that any similarity class corresponding to an ideal (not necessarily prime) of degree one contains a representative of the desired form. The second step is a previously unpublished result due to Lenstra that implies that when
$A[x]/(f(x))$
is maximal, every ideal class contains an ideal of degree one.
From “Atomic Spies” to Turkish-American Relations: The Cold War in Turkish Children's Magazines in the 1950s
Authors: Solomonovich Nadav 
Published: October 2023

AbstractThis article examines the representation of the Cold War in Turkish children's magazines in the 1950s, contributing to the current literature on children in the Middle East and the cultural Cold War. My main argument is that Turkish children's magazines played an important role in educating and indoctrinating children to support Turkey's pro-Western stance during the early part of the Cold War in two ways. The first was the production of new local content in the form of articles, stories, and comics that introduced terms and institutions relevant to the Turkish experience of the Cold War as part of the Western camp. Additionally, stories and comics reflected anxieties typical of the Cold War, such as fear of espionage and fifth columns. Second, American comics, translated into Turkish, or in some cases repurposed existing comics, instilled in Turkish children American concepts such as capitalism and consumerism.
Foreign Influence and the Legitimacy of Constitution Building in South Sudan
Authors: Akech Joseph Geng 
Published: October 2023

AbstractMany countries write their constitutions with some form of international involvement. Internationalized constitutional assistance has been made easier by technology as well as trade and political exigencies. The question, therefore, is: How does this inevitable foreign influence impact constitutional legitimacy? This article discusses this question and asserts that foreign influence interacts with three approaches of constitutional design to shape constitutional legitimacy: (a) popular participation, (b) elites’ contracts, and (c) transnational constitutional implants. Such a transactional relationship is referred to as the “three-stone legitimacy theory”, which implicates both the internal and the external legitimacy of a constitution. The former means citizens’ acceptance that a constitution meets their aspirations, while the latter refers to the international community's satisfaction with the resulting constitution as guaranteeing the universal democratic ethos. The article ends with a proposition conceptualized as a “blueprint” for a democratic constitutional legitimacy in South Sudan.
First record of the Atlantic soft pout Melanostigma atlanticum (Teleostei, Zoarcidae) in the eastern Mediterranean Sea
Authors: Siapatis Apostolos , Markakis Konstantinos , Tsagarakis Konstantinos 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
This paper reports the first record of the Atlantic soft pout Melanostigma atlanticum Koefoed, 1952, from the eastern Mediterranean Sea. The specimen was caught in a pelagic trawl during a research trip carried out north of the island of Crete (Greece) in December 2019. The fish measured 66.1 mm in total length and weighed 0.810 g. The presence of M. atlanticum in the eastern Mediterranean Sea indicates that the geographical distribution of the species is not restricted only to the western part of it but spreads throughout the basin. Melanostigma atlanticum is typically found in the deep sea, where limited surveys and research have resulted in major data gaps. The lack of recording of the species until recently in the eastern Mediterranean Sea is attributed to the species' small size and slender body shape that allow it to escape traditional fishing gears, as well as the low trawling activity in depths greater than 400 m and the lack of surveys targeting the mesopelagic fish communities.
Can China change the Arctic regime?
Authors: Kobzeva Mariia , Todorov Andrey 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
China’s role in the Arctic regime remains a debatable topic in the expert discourse on the High North. Currently, in view of the aggravated conflicts in other regions that include Russia as the largest Arctic state, and China as its strategic partner, the Arctic regimes are experiencing salient disturbances. Against this backdrop, an understanding of China’s opportunities to affect Arctic affairs is urgently needed. We address this issue by combining political and legal analyses. We used the regime theory approach to outline the Arctic regime complex (ARC), and through this lens, we discuss the recent changes that are being observed. Based on this, we determine China’s actual potential for making amendments to the ARC. We conclude that China has no capacity to make a crucial shift in the ARC, but it is still able to alter particular rules, like those related to Arctic Ocean management and scientific cooperation. The further efficient operation of the Arctic Council will play a decisive role in envisaging China’s behaviour in the region.
Revisiting frequencies of phonological sound classes in speech input: Change over time in child-directed speech
Authors: LEE Sue Ann S. , LEE Jaehoon , DAVIS Barbara L. 
Published: October 2023

AbstractThe purpose of the current study was to revisit a controversial topic: whether frequencies of phonological consonant and vowel classes differ in speech directed to children and to adults. In addition, the current study investigated whether the frequency of phonological consonant and vowel classes changes with children’s increasing chronological and/or developmental age. This study analyzed speech input from 44 adults to four different age groups of listeners (i.e., three groups of children at 6, 18, and 36 months of age and one group of adult listeners) in terms of frequency of occurrence of consonant and vowel classes. Results revealed that consonant stop, nasal, fricative and glide manner classes as well as all four consonant place classes were significantly different in speech directed to the four different age groups. A perspective is discussed to better understand the nature of frequency input of phonological sound classes.
Subject and Family Perspectives from the Central Thalamic Deep Brain Stimulation Trial for Traumatic Brain Injury: Part II

Published: October 2023

AbstractThis is the second paper in a two-part series describing subject and family perspectives from the CENTURY-S (CENtral Thalamic Deep Brain Stimulation for the Treatment of Traumatic Brain InjURY-Safety) first-in-human invasive neurological device trial to achieve cognitive restoration in moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (msTBI). To participate, subjects were independently assessed to formally establish decision-making capacity to provide voluntary informed consent. Here, we report on post-operative interviews conducted after a successful trial of thalamic stimulation. All five msTBI subjects met a pre-selected primary endpoint of at least a 10% improvement in completion time on Trail-Making-Test Part B, a marker of executive function. We describe narrative responses of subjects and family members, refracted against that success. Interviews following surgery and the stimulation trial revealed the challenge of adaptation to improvements in cognitive function and emotional regulation as well as altered (and restored) relationships and family dynamics. These improvements exposed barriers to social reintegration made relevant by recoveries once thought inconceivable. The study’s success sparked concerns about post-trial access to implanted devices, financing of device maintenance, battery replacement, and on-going care. Most subjects and families identified the need for supportive counseling to adapt to the new trajectory of their lives.
Natural history of cardiac findings in mucopolysaccharidosis type I: report from an international registry
Authors: Braunlin Elizabeth , Bay Luisa , Guffon Nathalie , Yang Meng , Pangaud Nicolas , Clarke Lorne A. 
Published: October 2023

AbstractMucopolysaccharidosis type I is an inborn error of glycosaminoglycan catabolism with phenotypes ranging from severe (Hurler syndrome) to attenuated (Hurler–Scheie and Scheie syndromes). Cardiovascular involvement is common and contributes significantly to morbidity and mortality. We conducted a retrospective analysis of the prevalence and natural history of cardiac abnormalities in treatment-naïve individuals enrolled in the international Mucopolysaccharidosis Type I Registry. Interrogation of echocardiography data (presence of cardiac valve regurgitation and/or stenosis; measurements of left ventricular chamber dimensions in diastole and systole, diastolic left ventricular posterior wall and interventricular septal thicknesses and ventricular systolic function (shortening fraction)) showed that mitral regurgitation was the most common and earliest finding for individuals with both severe (58.3%, median age 1.2 years) and attenuated (74.2%, median age 8.0 years) disease. Left-sided valve stenosis was also common in individuals with attenuated disease (mitral 30.3%; aortic 25%). Abnormal ventricular wall and septal thickness (Z-scores ≥2) were observed early in both phenotypes. Z-scores for diastolic left ventricular posterior wall and interventricular septal thicknesses increased with age in the severe phenotype (annualised slopes of 0.2777 [p = 0.037] and 0.3831 [p = 0.001], respectively); a similar correlation was not observed in the attenuated phenotype (annualised slopes of −0.0401 [p = 0.069] and −0.0029 [p = 0.875], respectively). Decreased cardiac ventricular systolic function (defined as shortening fraction <28%) was uncommon but, when noted, was more frequent in infants with the severe phenotype. While cardiac abnormalities occur early in both severe and attenuated mucopolysaccharidosis type I, the pattern of valve dysfunction and progression of ventricular abnormalities vary by phenotype.
Low pre-albumin but not thiamine predicts cognitive deficits in adolescents post-Fontan and healthy controls
Authors: Pike Nancy A. , Avedissian Tamar , Halnon Nancy H. , Lewis Alan B. , Kumar Rajesh 
Published: October 2023

AbstractBackground:Low pre-albumin, body mass index, and thiamine levels have been associated with poor nutritional status and cognitive/memory deficits in adult heart failure patients. However, the relationship of these nutritional/dietary intake biomarkers to cognition has not been assessed in adolescents post-Fontan procedure and healthy controls.Methods:This is a cross-sectional study. Adolescents (14–21 years of age) post-Fontan completion were recruited from paediatric cardiology clinics and controls from the community. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment was administered (normal ≥ 26), and blood draw (thiamine [normal 70–110 nmol/L] and pre-albumin levels [adolescent normal 23–45 mg/dL]) and the Thiamine Food Frequency Questionnaire were completed by all participants.Results:Seventy subjects, 40 post-Fontan (mean age 16 ± 1.6, female 51%, Hispanic 44%, hypoplastic left heart syndrome 26%) and 30 controls (mean age 16.8 ± 1.9, female 52%, Hispanic 66%), were participated. Post-Fontan group had lower median total cognitive scores (23 versus 29, p < 0.001), pre-albumin levels (23 versus 27, p = 0.013), and body mass index (20 versus 24, p = 0.027) than controls. Post-Fontan group had higher thiamine levels than controls (127 versus 103, p = 0.033). Lower pre-albumin levels (< 23) and underweight body mass index were associated with abnormal total cognitive scores (p = 0.030). Low pre-albumin level (p = .038) was an independent predictor of worse cognition.Conclusion:Lower pre-albumin was an independent predictor for worse cognition in adolescents post-Fontan. Lower pre-albumin levels may reflect chronic liver changes or protein-losing enteropathy seen in Fontan physiology. These findings highlight the possibility for nutrition-induced cognitive changes.
The Entrepreneurial Welfare Mix: The Case of Community-Based Old Age Services in China
Authors: Fang Lijie , Li Bingqin 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Developing an old-age service system that can meet the fast-growing needs of the aging population is challenging. It is increasingly recognised that community-level services should be pivotal in providing services to older people. In this article, the authors use the Chinese experience and argue that because the state is not clear how such a system should look like, all actors behave like entrepreneurs who strategise, take risks and search for a viable “business model”. The research draws upon in-depth interviews and focus groups in six cities in China collected in 2015-2016 and follow-up interviews in one community in three cities in 2021. The findings show that the service system has evolved into a dynamic entrepreneurial welfare mix that actively embraces the market. This research contributes to the theoretical development of the welfare mix. The authors also raised possible issues with such a direction of change in the conclusion.
Confronting Racism of Omission

Published: October 2023

AbstractThe COVID-19 pandemic and Black Lives Matter movement have brought ethnic and racial inequalities to the forefront of public conversation on both sides of the Atlantic. However, research shows that people routinely overestimate the progress made towards equality and underestimate disparities between racial and ethnic majority and minority groups. Common among the American public is a naive belief in equal opportunity that stands in sharp contrast to the reality of structural racial inequity. Across the Atlantic, Dutch people’s self-perception of a tolerant, progressive, and egalitarian society means that racism and discrimination are topics often avoided, rendering invisible the stigmatization of ethnic and racial minorities. The result is racism of omission: ethnic and racial disparities are minimized and attributed to factors other than discrimination, which leads to legitimize inequities and justify non-intervention. Against this background, we field an internationally comparative randomized survey experiment to study whether (willful) ignorance about racial and ethnic inequality can be addressed through the provision of information. We find that facts about ethnic and racial inequality, on the whole, (1) have the greatest impact on people’s perceptions of inequality as compared to their explanations of inequality and policy attitudes, (2) register most strongly with majority-group White participants as compared to participants from minority groups, (3) cut across partisan lines, and (4) effect belief change most consistently in the Netherlands, as compared to the United States. We make sense of these findings through the lens of how ‘shocking’ the information provided was to different groups of participants.
AN ALGEBRAIC PROOF OF COMPLETENESS FOR MONADIC FUZZY PREDICATE LOGIC
Authors: WANG JUNTAO , WU HONGWEI , HE PENGFEI , SHE YANHONG 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Monoidal t-norm based logic

$\mathbf {MTL}$

is the weakest t-norm based residuated fuzzy logic, which is a

$[0,1]$

-valued propositional logical system having a t-norm and its residuum as truth function for conjunction and implication. Monadic fuzzy predicate logic

$\mathbf {mMTL\forall }$

that consists of the formulas with unary predicates and just one object variable, is the monadic fragment of fuzzy predicate logic

$\mathbf {MTL\forall }$

, which is indeed the predicate version of monoidal t-norm based logic

$\mathbf {MTL}$

. The main aim of this paper is to give an algebraic proof of the completeness theorem for monadic fuzzy predicate logic

$\mathbf {mMTL\forall }$

and some of its axiomatic extensions. Firstly, we survey the axiomatic system of monadic algebras for t-norm based residuated fuzzy logic and amend some of them, thus showing that the relationships for these monadic algebras completely inherit those for corresponding algebras. Subsequently, using the equivalence between monadic fuzzy predicate logic

$\mathbf {mMTL\forall }$

and S5-like fuzzy modal logic

$\mathbf {S5(MTL)}$

, we prove that the variety of monadic MTL-algebras is actually the equivalent algebraic semantics of the logic

$\mathbf {mMTL\forall }$

, giving an algebraic proof of the completeness theorem for this logic via functional monadic MTL-algebras. Finally, we further obtain the completeness theorem of some axiomatic extensions for the logic

$\mathbf {mMTL\forall }$

, and thus give a major application, namely, proving the strong completeness theorem for monadic fuzzy predicate logic based on involutive monoidal t-norm logic

$\mathbf {mIMTL\forall }$

via functional representation of finitely subdirectly irreducible monadic IMTL-algebras.
A Model for Mid‐Holocene—Present U.S. Mid‐Atlantic Piedmont River Corridor Sediment Budgets Fit to Stratigraphic Data
Authors: Pizzuto J. E. 
Published: October 2023

AbstractFluvial sediment transport and deposition shapes river, floodplain, and estuarine systems but also can create water quality problems, which in some cases motivates efforts to reduce hillslope erosion. However, watershed management efforts rarely consider the fate of eroded sediments and the time scale of transport to estuaries. This study presents a modeling approach to estimate regionally averaged floodplain deposition, erosion, and sediment flux for the mid‐Atlantic U.S. caused by changing forest cover, urban development, and milldam construction. Regional regression equations estimate discharge at 3‐month intervals, and (temporally invariant) channel width and slope. Sediment concentrations are determined from a rating curve (defined for modern conditions by gaging‐station data). Tuning the model to floodplain stratigraphic data suggests that‐sediment concentrations prior to European colonization (i.e., before ∼1750) were 5%–8% of those prevailing today, while legacy (1750–1950) sediment concentrations were 25%–35% of present values. The calibration process, however, is only partly successful for the period before 1750 due to the limited number of older dated samples available. Nonetheless, the model accurately reproduces the observed age distribution of floodplain deposits. Computed sediment‐budget components increase monotonically from before 1750 to the present, and the ratio of budget components remains similar from one time period to the next. The model also predicts that millennial timescales are needed for mid‐Atlantic floodplains to equilibrate following a change in sediment regime, a finding with important implications for river corridor and watershed restoration planning.
