Authors: Бурсаћ Василије 
Published: November 2022

Иако се тематски могу веома разликовати, све видео игре жанра „Тркач“ (енгл. Runner) одликује идентична механика игре. Имајући ово у виду, направљена је генеричка програмска основу која би се могла искористити као полазна тачка за брзи развој видео игара овог жанра. Овај програмски модел је обогађен системом за пружање аудио-визуелно-хаптичких повратних информација играчу. Захваљујући овом систему, постигнут је висок степен инклузивности и "увучености" играча у виртуални свет видео игре. У овом раду је описан један такав програмски модел развијен у Јунити (енгл. Unity) погону, као и његове могућности и функционалности.

Published: November 2022

Introduction: Low- and middle-income countries usually have larger heterogeneity in education quality, a reflection of complex socioeconomic and cultural diversity. Education is known to impact neuropsychological assessment, and tests norms usually are grouped by years of education. Disparities in education effect on cognition might result in diagnosis errors. Objective: We aimed to compare the effect of education on general cognition in older adults from two Brazilian geopolitical regions. Method: 125 northeast (NE) healthy older adults (mean age=70.08±7.76 years, 66% female) and 115 southeast (SE) (mean age=72.39±8.09 years, 76% female), with equal education range (1-19), mean and variance (p=0.52). All participants performed the Dementia Rating Scale (DRS-Mattis), and the residual variance (regressed on age) was used. We divided education into three achieved levels: primary (1-4 years), elementary-to-high school (5-11 years) and undergraduate (equal and higher than 12 years). Result: We found a distinct effect of education according to geopolitical region for episodic memory and visioconstruction ability. Comparing simple effect sizes for educational level by region, there is a medium effect (r=0.30) for the primary level between regions, having the NE group a significantly lower performance. Conclusion: Education effect on general cognition is similar for both regions, but older adults with primary level have significant distinct performance depending on their region. Primary education inequality might be related to other socioeconomic factors presented across country regions. We highlight the necessity of representative samples in heterogeneous countries as Brazil, in order to avoid clinical assessment errors when using restrict national norms.

Authors: Richard H. Morley  
Published: November 2022

This study investigates how changes in self-awareness impact criminological self-control and the degree to which mindfulness buffers against these changes. To accomplish this task, 118 undergraduate participants were recruited and surveyed prior to and after a statistics test. Surveys included the Grasmick et al. (1993) Self-Control Scale which measures criminal impulsivity. Additional scales included the Five-Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire, the Positive Negative Affect Scale, and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale. These results showed a significant increase in negative affect, a significant decrease in self-esteem, and a significant reduction in self-control after the posttest. These changes were significantly correlated with exam satisfaction. Also, the participants demonstrated self-reported increases in several items on the Self-Control scale including impulsivity, self-centeredness, and a preference for physical compared to mental tasks. When mindfulness was included as a covariate, none of the changes were significant. Results and limitations are discussed.

Authors: Dr. Pallavi Raj  , Dr. Nov Rattan Sharma  
Published: November 2022

Background: Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behaviour therapy (CBT) researchers carry assumptions about the characteristics of these therapies, and the extent to which they differ from one another. This article examines proposed differences between ACT and CBT for Generalised anxiety disorder, including aspects of treatment components, processes, and outcomes. Cognitive Behaviour therapy (CBT) is an empirically supported treatment for anxiety disorders. However, not all individuals respond to treatment and many who show improvement do not maintain their gains over the long-term. Thus, alternative treatments are explored. Methods: The current study (N=30) was a three group design, comparing Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Control group of participants with ICD 10 diagnosis of Generalised Anxiety Disorder has been taken. Participants completed 12 sessions of CBT or ACT or a 12-week waiting period. Baseline assessment done with all the participants and post-treatment assessment was done after completion of the therapy sessions. Assessments consisted of clinician ratings measures. As it is a three group design so Kruskal-Wallis H test has been used for the analysis of data to examine between-group differences on outcomes measures. Result: Both treatment groups control group, with no significant differences observed between CBT and ACT on post assessment. Conclusion: Overall improvement was similar between ACT and CBT, indicating that ACT is a highly viable treatment for anxiety disorders as CBT.
