Being one of us: we-identities and self-categorization theory
Authors: León Felipe 
Published: July 2023

AbstractOne way to theorize about we-identities—the identities that individual subjects have as ‘one of us’—is in terms of the uniformity, interchangeability, and prototypicality of group members. The social-psychological theory of self-categorization epitomizes this approach, which has strongly influenced contemporary phenomenological research on the we. This paper argues that this approach has one important and largely overlooked limitation: the we-identities tied to close personal relationships—exemplified by long-term friendships and romantic partnerships—are based on patterns of interpersonal interaction and integration through which individuals tend to grasp their non-substitutability and complementarity. This limitation suggests that another approach is needed to tackle the we-identities characteristic of close personal relationships. I outline such an approach, by combining resources from classical phenomenology and ongoing research on the socially extended mind.
Immigrants’ political engagement: gender differences in political attitudes and behaviours among immigrants in Italy
Authors: Gatti Rosa , Buonomo Alessio , Strozza Salvatore 
Published: July 2023

AbstractDespite the relevance of the gender dimension of immigration, political engagement of migrant women has rarely been the focus of scholarly research. This article tries to fill this gap. Using secondary data from the “Condizione e integrazione sociale dei cittadini stranieri” [Social Condition and Integration of Foreign Citizens] survey carried out by the National Institute of Statistics (ISTAT) in 2011–2012, we analysed the factors that at an individual level spur or inhibit migrants’ political engagement in Italy in terms of gender differences. We decided to use political interest and political participation separately as dependent dichotomous variables in logistic models that consider structural, situational, migratory, and group-related variables as independent factors. From our analysis, some relevant differences emerged both in terms of gender and in terms of political attitudes and behaviours. Our results confirm the existence of a gender gap in political engagement among migrants in Italy: migrant women are always less likely to be engaged in politics compared to men, both in terms of interest and participation. After controlling for some characteristics, this gap never disappears completely. Our results also suggest that there are some notable differences in the determinants of political engagement. Indeed, family workload inhibits the probability of political engagement only for migrant women. Furthermore, our results cast light on the crucial role of social capital in spurring political engagement for both women and men, thus contributing to reducing the gender gap.

An assessment of India's multiple national social protection schemes in improving nutrition and health
Authors: Narayanan Sudha , Naraparaju Karthikeya , Gerber Nicolas 
Published: July 2023

AbstractThis paper examines whether the combined participation in workfare and food grain subsidy programmes in India impacts the nutritional and health status of women and children, using body mass index (BMI) and short-term morbidity as indicators. Based on a nationally representative panel data survey conducted in 2005 and 2012, we estimate the participants’ average treatment effects by applying a semi-parametric differences-in-differences (DID) approach on the full sample and a regression-based DID approach on a matched sample. We find that simultaneous participation in these programmes lowers women’s morbidity by at least 25%, but women’s BMI increases only in states implementing those programmes well. For children, there is no robust evidence of impacts. Our results suggest that various social protection programmes can operate synergistically and deliver positive impacts on children and women’s nutrition or health, even though this is not their main objective. However, the effects are heterogeneous and confirm that the nutrition and health benefits, reached through a combination of the two social protection programmes, are mediated by intrahousehold dynamics. Synergistic and mediating effects must be considered in future efforts to upscale social protection in the Global South in order to deliver simultaneous progress across the Sustainable Development Goals.

Authors: Hoffman Robert R. , Miller Timothy , Klein Gary , Mueller Shane T. , Clancey William J. 
Published: July 2023

AbstractThis paper summarizes the psychological insights and related design challenges that have emerged in the field of Explainable AI (XAI). This summary is organized as a set of principles, some of which have recently been instantiated in XAI research. The primary aspects of implementation to which the principles refer are the design and evaluation stages of XAI system development, that is, principles concerning the design of explanations and the design of experiments for evaluating the performance of XAI systems. The principles can serve as guidance, to ensure that AI systems are human-centered and effectively assist people in solving difficult problems.
High Responsivity and Ultra-Low Detection Limits in Nonlinear a-Si:H p-i-n Photodiodes Enabled by Photogating
Authors: Bablich Andreas , Müller Maurice , Bornemann Rainer , Nachtigal Andreas , Haring Bolívar Peter 
Published: July 2023

AbstractPhotodetectors operating at the wavelength in the visible spectrum are key components in high-performance optoelectronic systems. In this work, massive nonlinearities in amorphous silicon p-i-n photodiodes enabled by the photogating are presented, resulting in responsivities up to 744 mA/W at blue wavelengths. The detectors exhibit significant responsivity gains at optical modulation frequencies exceeding MHz and a more than 60-fold enhanced spectral response compared to the non-gated state. The detection limits down to 10.4 nW/mm2 and mean signal-to-noise ratio enhancements of 8.5 dB are demonstrated by illuminating the sensor with an additional 6.6 µW/mm2 red wavelength. Electro-optical simulations verify photocarrier modulation due to defect-induced field screening to be the origin of such high responsivity gains. The experimental results validate the theory and enable the development of commercially viable and complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) compatible high responsivity photodetectors operating in the visible range for low-light level imaging and detection.

Published: July 2023

AbstractThe effects of acute sublethal doses of coumaphos, an acaricide used against Varroa destructor infestation in beekeeping, on the locomotor activities of four native honeybee subspecies of Türkiye including two ecotypes (Carniolan honeybee -A. m. carnica, Syrian honeybee -A. m. syriaca, Caucasian honeybee- A. m. caucasica, and Muğla and Yığılca ecotypes of Anatolian honeybee A. m. anatoliaca) were investigated using an individual locomotor activity monitoring system. Analysis of locomotor activity data in the first 12-h, last 12-h, and 24-h time periods showed that bees from caucasica and carnica subspecies were not affected by coumaphos at all three acute doses (1, 2, and 5 μg coumaphos in 10 μl sucrose syrup for each bee). In contrast, bees from A. m. syriaca subspecies showed significantly elevated locomotor activity levels at 2 and 5 μg coumaphos doses within the first 12 h. Bees from both Muğla and Yığılca ecotypes of anatoliaca subspecies also showed elevated locomotor activity levels at 5 μg coumaphos dose but the magnitude of increase was lower in these ecotypes compared to that seen in syriaca subspecies in the first 12-h period. In general, increasing doses of coumaphos resulted in increased locomotor activity (locomotor activity), with differences in sensitivity across honeybee populations. Possible mechanisms underlying this variance and suggestions for further studies are discussed.

AbstractFollowing the circular economy concept, all areas of science, including electronics, require individual approach. The green electronics approach implies processing natural based materials for development of electronic components even for single use, so that waste does not exist. This paper describes the production of thermistors from 3 different types of edible materials, their testing in laboratory conditions, as well as the application for measuring the temperature in the human oral cavity. To make the thermistor, three types of natural materials were used (carrageenan, polyvinyl alcohol and apple pomace-based). After fabrication, materials were poured into molds. Aluminium foil contacts were placed so that the electrical characterization of the materials could be performed. Several parameters were measured: resistance (R), impedance (Z) and the phase angle (θ) as a function of frequency. In order to determine whether the thermistors have a positive or negative temperature coefficient and to determine their sensitivity, measurements were conducted at three different temperatures: 25 ℃ (room temperature), 37 ℃ (human body temperature), and 50 ℃. The thermistors demonstrated negative temperature coefficient behaviour. Additionally, it was demonstrated that the apple pomace-based thermistor can successfully measure healthy volunteer's temperature.

Authors: Hof Christiane , Hartmann Jacqueline , Herrnbrodt Rebecca , Müller Tamara , Saam Julia , Ulrich Naheela , Vellenzer Josephine 
Published: July 2023

ZusammenfassungDer gegenwärtige Wandel in der Arbeitswelt führt auch zu neuen Anforderungen an die Kompetenzen und damit an das Lernen der Menschen. Neben der Gestaltung formaler Weiterbildungen rücken zunehmend Formen arbeitsintegrierter Lernunterstützung in den Fokus der Erwachsenenbildung. Der vorliegende Beitrag nimmt diese Situationsdiagnose zum Anlass, um Möglichkeiten aufzuzeigen, das Lernen im Arbeitskontext empirisch fundiert weiterzuentwickeln. Als Grundlage dient eine explorative Studie, in der erwerbstätige Personen nach Lernherausforderungen und deren Bewältigung gefragt wurden. Die so gewonnenen Einsichten wurden systematisiert zu aufgabenbezogenen, sozialen, personenbezogenen und organisationalen Herausforderungen. Durch diese Systematisierung sowie die Rekonstruktion individuell genutzter Formen des Lernens konnten Maßnahmen zur pädagogischen Unterstützung von arbeitsbezogenem Lernen konzipiert werden. Darüber hinaus verweisen die empirischen Einblicke in die Allgegenwart des Lernens im Kontext von Arbeit auf die Notwendigkeit, das Augenmerk nicht nur funktional auf die Bewältigung von Arbeitsaufgaben zu richten, sondern die Einzelnen auch auf ihren je individuellen Lernwegen zu unterstützen.
AssistML: an approach to manage, recommend and reuse ML solutions
Authors: Villanueva Zacarias Alejandro Gabriel , Reimann Peter , Weber Christian , Mitschang Bernhard 
Published: July 2023

AbstractThe adoption of machine learning (ML) in organizations is characterized by the use of multiple ML software components. When building ML systems out of these software components, citizen data scientists face practical requirements which go beyond the known challenges of ML, e. g., data engineering or parameter optimization. They are expected to quickly identify ML system options that strike a suitable trade-off across multiple performance criteria. These options also need to be understandable for non-technical users. Addressing these practical requirements represents a problem for citizen data scientists with limited ML experience. This calls for a concept to help them identify suitable ML software combinations. Related work, e. g., AutoML systems, are not responsive enough or cannot balance different performance criteria. This paper explains how AssistML, a novel concept to recommend ML solutions, i. e., software systems with ML models, can be used as an alternative for predictive use cases. Our concept collects and preprocesses metadata of existing ML solutions to quickly identify the ML solutions that can be reused in a new use case. We implement AssistML and evaluate it with two exemplary use cases. Results show that AssistML can recommend ML solutions in line with users’ performance preferences in seconds. Compared to AutoML, AssistML offers citizen data scientists simpler, intuitively explained ML solutions in considerably less time. Moreover, these solutions perform similarly or even better than AutoML models.

Authors: Grabmair Marlene , Kovacs Carrie 
Published: July 2023

ZusammenfassungDie Fluktuation von Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeitern kann hohe Kosten für Unternehmen verursachen. Durch passende Sozialisationsmaßnahmen kann jedoch bereits am Beginn eines neuen Arbeitsverhältnisses die Grundlage geschaffen werden, solche Fluktuation zu vermindern. Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist es, Sozialisationstaktiken im Zuge der organisationalen Sozialisation zu identifizieren und ihren Zusammenhang mit Rollenklarheit und Arbeitszufriedenheit zu analysieren. Eine Online-Erhebung unter insgesamt 166 kürzlich eingestellten IT-Mitarbeitenden lässt auf einen starken Zusammenhang zwischen institutionalisierter Sozialisation und Rollenklarheit sowie Arbeitszufriedenheit schließen. Trotz der COVID-19 Pandemie setzten Unternehmen unterschiedlichste Onboarding-Maßnahmen im Rahmen dieser Sozialisation ein. Besonders Maßnahmen zur sozialen Integration wurden dabei von Mitarbeitenden als hilfreich empfunden. Allgemein sprechen die Ergebnisse dafür, dass Mitarbeitende in dynamischen, digitalisierten Arbeitsplätzen stark von strukturierenden Sozialisationstaktiken profitieren können.Praktische Relevanz Gelingt es einer Organisation, effektives Onboarding und dadurch eine positive organisationale Sozialisation anzustoßen, kann sie potenziell nicht nur Fluktuation, sondern eine Reihe negativer organisationalen Entwicklungen vorbeugen. Für Unternehmen ist eine erfolgreiche Sozialisation von neuen Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeitern daher von großem Interesse. Diese Arbeit kann Unternehmen dabei unterstützen eine effektive Sozialisation herbeizuführen.

Published: July 2023

AbstractHeating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems account for one-third of the total energy consumption in office buildings. The use of airflow measurements to control the operation of HVAC systems can reduce energy consumption; thus, a sensor capable of monitoring airflow in a duct system is critical. Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) can be utilized as self-powered sensors in airflow-driven TENGs (ATENGs) as self-powered sensors. By employing ferroelectric materials and surface modifications, the surface charges of TENGs can be increased. In this study, fibrous-mat TENGs were prepared using ferroelectric materials consisting of poly (vinylidene fluoride-co-trifluoroethylene) (PVDF-TrFE) and polyamide 11 (nylon-11). And these materials were subsequently investigated. Poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) was added to PVDF-TrFE to enhance the ferroelectric crystalline phase. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that this incorporation affects the β phase. In addition, the surface of nylon-11 was modified using the electrospray technique for post-treatment, thereby improving the interfacial adhesion between the fibers. These materials were then utilized in fibrous-mat ATENGs (FM-ATENGs) to demonstrate their practical application. The FM-ATENGs can be effectively used in an Arduino airflow-check sensor, showcasing their potential for application in HVAC systems, to enhance airflow control and energy efficiency.

Published: July 2023

AbstractThis reflection paper presents a consolidated view of EFPIA on the need for principles for good practice in the generation and use of non-interventional studies (NIS), including overarching principles such as the registration of hypothesis evaluating treatment effect (HETE) studies. We first define NIS and the important adjacencies to clinical trials and relationship with real-world evidence (RWE). We then outline the principles for good practice with respect to appropriate research design, study protocol, fit-for-purpose variables and data quality, analytical methods, bias reduction, transparency in conduct and use, privacy management and ethics review. We conclude with recommendations for action for the research community to promote trust and credibility in the use of NIS.
Quantitative Evaluation of the Influence of Posterior Malleolus Fracture and Fixation on the Rotational Stability of the Ankle

Published: July 2023

Abstract
Background
This study aimed to analyze quantitative correlation between the posterior malleolus fracture and fixation and the rotational stability of the ankle and to explore supplementary surgical indications for posterior malleolus fracture.

Methods
Twenty fresh frozen cadaver specimens were selected and dissected. Based on the tibial insertion of the ligament complex, the model for the supination external rotation stage 3 ankle fracture with a posterior malleolar fragment and syndesmosis diastasis was created. The area threshold of the posterior tibial insertion of posterior malleolus fracture was biomechanically assessed and the difference of the antirotating ability stiffness of the ankle between simple posterior malleolus fixation and simple syndesmotic fixation was analyzed statistically.

Results
The tibial insertion of posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament and inferior transverse tibiofibular ligament complex was relatively broad, and its width decreased as the distance from the joint line increased. Biomechanical analysis showed that: the threshold of posterior area of posterior malleolus fracture was 1/4S; posterior malleolus fixation provided better rotational stability than syndesmotic fixation (P < 0.01).

Conclusion
The surgical indications for posterior malleolus fracture should consider simultaneously the restoration of the axial and rotational stability of the ankle. Simple posterior malleolus fracture fixation is recommended when the syndesmosis is unstable and the area ratio of posterior tibial insertion of posterior malleolus fracture is greater than or equal to 1/4. Syndesmotic fixation is proposed to restore and maintain the rotational stability of the ankle when the syndesmosis is unstable and the area ratio is less than 1/4. Regardless of the area ratio, the surgical indication only depends on the impact of the posterior malleolus fracture on the axial stability of tibiotalar joint, the involved articular surface area, and the displacement degree of posterior malleolus fragment, when the syndesmosis is stable.

Uncovering potential bias in engineering design: a comparative review of bias research in medicine
Authors: Agyemang Malena , Andreae Doertha A. , McComb Christopher 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Engineering design research has focused on developing and refining methods and evaluating design education in design education, design research and design in practice. One important aspect that is not thoroughly investigated is the influence of bias on design within these spaces of design. Bias is known to impact the interpretation of information, decision-making and practices in all areas. These factors are vital in engineering design education, practice and research, emphasizing the importance of investigating bias. The first goal of this study is to highlight and synthesize existing bias research in design education, research and practice. The second goal is to identify areas where bias may be under-researched or under-reported in design. To achieve these goals, a comparative analysis is performed against a comparable field: medicine. Many parallels exist between both fields. Patient–provider and designer–end-user relationships are comparable. Medical education is comparable to design education with the cooperative, inquiry-based and integrated learning pedagogy approaches. Lastly, physicians and design engineers both solve cognitively complex systems-oriented problems. Leveraging research on bias in medicine enables us to highlight gaps in engineering design. Recommendations are made to help design researchers address these gaps.
