Purpose: Social support strengthening and hope inspiration about recovery may mitigate stigma of mental illness. The study explored on the level of social support as well as the relationship of social support with internalized stigma and recovery attitude among patients with schizophrenia.
Methodology: Through a cross-sectional design and a convenience sampling method, 282 participants with a diagnosis of schizophrenia completed the study. They were interviewed with the Internalized stigma of Mental illness (ISMI) Scale, Oslo-3 Social Support Scale and Recovery Attitude Questionnaire (RAQ-16). The Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 18 was used for data entry and analysis and Pearson’s correlation analysis was used to assess for the relationship of social support with internalized stigma and recovery attitude.
Findings: Perceived social support was moderate to low in majority of the participants (87.5%). The mean scores for social support, internalized stigma and recovery attitude were 3.111 (± 0.748), 2.580 (± 0.245) and 3.561 (± 0.355) respectively. Social support significantly and negatively correlated with internalized stigma on the domains of stereotype endorsement (r=-0.270; p-0.000), positively correlated with the stigma resistance subscale (r=0.568; p-0.000) and recovery attitude (r=0.428; p-0.000). A negative correlation between recovery attitude and internalized stigma was observed on the domains of stereotype endorsement (r=-0.249; p-0.000) and stigma resistance (r=0.299; p-0.000).
Conclusion: The study showed a high level of perceived low to moderate social support and perceived social support both correlated to internalized stigma and recovery attitude.
Recommendations: The outcome of this study indicates that strengthening the social support network may enhance positive recovery attitude and mitigate internalized stigma of mental illness. Therefore, there is need to design and adopt mental health intervention that simultaneously targets stigma, promotes recovery attitude and strengthens social support in the overall treatment plan of individuals living with severe mental illness.

Published: October 2022

Purpose: To determine the moderating effect of resilience for Fear of COVID-19 in predicting death anxiety among COVID sufferers and general population of Pakistan.
Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted on adults (N=300), COVID-19 sufferers (n=150) and general population (n=150) from 24th September 2021 to 10th June 2022. All participants who fulfilled the inclusion/exclusion criteria were included. Data collection was done by purposive sampling technique from different universities, institutions and hospitals of Pakistan. The questionnaires were filled out by participants, for this purpose revised death anxiety (RSAD), Connor-Davidson resilience (CD-RISC) and Fear of COVID-19 (FCV-19S) scales were used to access death anxiety, resilience and Fear of COVID-19. After data collection, data were used for further analysis using SPSS 21. Descriptive measurements were calculated for scales and subscales. Moderation analysis was used to find out moderating effect of resilience for fear of COVID-19 in predicting death anxiety among COVID-19 sufferers and general population.
Findings: The alpha coefficient of all scales and subscales ranged from .64 to .93. Mean, standard deviation and skewness, kurtosis values fulfilled the assumption of normal distribution of data. Moderating effect of resilience for fear of COVID-19 in predicting death anxiety, showed significant interaction effect of resilience and fear of COVID-19 on death anxiety only among COVID-19 sufferers, the interaction effect found to be explain 3.4% variance on death anxiety. The computation of slopes of model graph for these results indicates that t=1.34 (p>.001) for lower level of resilience, t=4.81 (p<.001) for middle level and t=5.67 (p<.001) for higher level. Values shows significance of moderation for middle and higher level of resilience among COVID-sufferers. A significant increase was observed in death anxiety with respect to increase in fear of COVID-19 at moderate and higher level of resilience. But moderating effect of resilience for fear of COVID-19 in predicting death anxiety among general population was non-significant.
Recommendations: Providing training about prevention strategies of COVID-19 through media can help people to deal with it. Various strategies such as acceptance of anxiety and negative emotions, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, social contacts and fostering self-efficacy should be recommended to include in psychological interventions for treatment of death anxiety and effectively cope up with fear of COVID-19. It would be beneficial to include more targeted variables that were not available in this study, such as social benefits, social support, use of health, and welfare services.

Published: October 2022

Three South-African Universities, including University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN), constantly witnessed students’ protests because of yearly increment in tuition fees. In 2015/2016, an announcement of 10.5% tuition fee increment incited an even higher level of protests among students. Research on the perception of the impact of fees must fall campaign (FMFC), especially among university staff, remains minimal to date. The purpose of this study is to analyse the impact of the FMFC on the perception of academic staff of the University of KwaZulu-Natal. Staff perceptions contribute significantly to the success and failure of the university or any organization. Data were elicited through a qualitative approach, using in-depth interviews. The target population for this study were academic staff sampled from UKZN. A total of 20 academic staff were recruited with the convenient sampling approach. The NVivo (v.12) qualitative software was employed for the identification of themes and sub-themes while the content qualitative analytical tool was employed to make sense of the themes. The results of the study showed that the #FMFC decreased the quality of education; lectures were suspended for days; and the #FMFC caused disruption on campus for a substantial numbers of times. Concerns were also that the image of the university had been negatively affected, and they felt unsafe. The study recommend the need for the injection of more funds through scholarship and bursary to cushion the effect of the increase in tuition fees, especially for the less-privileged students in order to tame the tide of consistent #FMFC protests.

GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
Electrochemical/Microstructural Studies on the Corrosion of Prestressed Steel Strand in Concrete with Naturally Ingressing Chlorides
Authors: Joseline Dyana , Pillai Radhakrishna G. 
Published: October 2022

The occurrence of environmentally assisted cracking (EAC) is as dependent on the aggressiveness of the environment as the susceptibility of the material and the presence of static tensile stresses. However, the influence of the environment has not been adequately considered in past investigations on EAC mechanisms of prestressing strands. This study utilizes various characterization techniques to evaluate the surface/bulk deterioration of corroded pretensioned concrete (PTC) specimens after natural chloride exposure (by diffusion through cover concrete). Corroded strands in two PTC prism specimens (3,000 mm × 150 mm × 200 mm) were characterized using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and other microanalytical techniques. The EIS and scanning electron microscope (SEM) images obtained after 1 y and 2 y of exposure revealed a negligible residual protectiveness of the passivated surface (although the concretes possessed high resistivity). Raman spectra, SEM, and x-ray computed tomography images of extracted corroded strands also provided unique insights into the pattern of corrosion propagation in PTC systems subjected to realistic chloride exposure. Microcracks in the bulk metal beneath flat-bottomed corrosion pits revealed the possible EAC at low chloride levels expected in service (&lt;0.6% by weight of binder). The findings serve as a basis to define chloride-induced passive-to-active transition as the end of risk-free service life of PTC structures, and for considering it as the limit state for both service life design and corrosion assessment to avoid the onset of EAC.
Performing Fear in Television Production
Authors: Fong Siao Yuong 
Published: October 2022

What goes into the ideological sustenance of an illiberal capitalist democracy? While much of the critical discussion of the media in authoritarian contexts focus on state power, the emphasis on strong states tend to perpetuate misnomers about the media as mere tools of the state and sustain myths about their absolute power.
Turning to the lived everyday of media producers in Singapore, I pose a series of questions that explore what it takes to perpetuate authoritarian resilience in the mass media. How, in what terms and through what means, does a politically stable illiberal Asian state like Singapore formulate its dominant imaginary of social order? What are the television production practices that perform and instantiate the social imaginary, and who are the audiences that are conjured and performed in the process? What are the roles played by imagined audiences in sustaining authoritarian resilience in the media? If, as I will argue in the book, audiences function as the central problematic that engenders anxieties and self-policing amongst producers, can the audience become a surrogate for the authoritarian state?

Published: October 2022

Abstract. The role of mineral dust aerosol in the global radiative energy budget is often
quantified by the dust direct radiative effect (DRE). The dust DRE strongly
depends on dust aerosol optical depth (DAOD), therefore, DRE efficiency
(DREE = DRE / DAOD) is widely compared across different studies to eliminate
differences due to the various dust loads. Nevertheless, DREE is still
influenced by the uncertainties associated with dust particle size
distribution (PSD) and optical properties. In this study, we derive a global
clear-sky size-resolved DREE dataset in both shortwave (SW) and longwave (LW) at top of
the atmosphere (TOA) and surface based on satellite observations (i.e.,
satellite-retrieved dust extinction spatial and vertical distributions). In
the DREE dataset, dust geometric diameter from 0.1 to 100 µm
is divided into 10 bins and the corresponding monthly mean DREE (with
respect to DAOD at 532 nm) for each size bin is derived by using the Rapid
Radiative Transfer Model (RRTM). Three sets of state of the art dust
refractive indices (RI) and two sets of dust shape models (sphere vs. spheroid) are adopted to investigate the sensitivity of dust DREE to dust
absorption and shape. As a result, the size-resolved dust DREE dataset
contains globally distributed monthly mean dust DREE at TOA and surface for
each of 10 size bins with 5∘ (longitude) ×2∘
(latitude) resolution as well as for each dust RI and shape combination. The
size-resolved dust DREE dataset can be used to readily calculate global dust
DRE for any DAOD and dust PSD, including the uncertainty in the DRE induced
by dust microphysical properties, (e.g., dust PSD, RI and shape). By
calculating dust DRE based on DAOD climatology retrieved from different
satellite sensors and based on different dust PSD, we find that uncertainty
in the spatial pattern of DAOD induces more than 10 % of the uncertainty
in SW dust DRE at TOA. The observation-based dust PSD induces around
15–20 % uncertainty in dust DRE at TOA and in the
atmosphere. The sensitivity assessments of dust DRE to dust RI and shape
further suggest that dust nonsphericity induces a negligible effect on dust
DRE estimations, while dust RI turns out to be the most important factor in
determining dust DRE, particularly in SW.
Dynamic risk assessment of compound hazards based on VFS–IEM–IDM: a case study of typhoon–rainstorm hazards in Shenzhen, China
Authors: Gong Wenwu , Jiang Jie , Yang Lili 
Published: October 2022

Abstract. Global warming has led to increased compound hazards, and an accurate risk assessment of such hazards is of great importance to urban emergency management. Due to the interrelations between multiple hazards, the risk assessment of a compound hazard faces several challenges: (1) the evaluation of hazard level needs to consider the correlations between compound hazard drivers, (2) usually only a small number of data samples are available for estimating the joint probability distribution of the compound hazard drivers and the loss caused by the hazards, and (3) the risk assessment process often ignores the temporal dynamics of compound hazard occurrences. This paper aims to address the mentioned challenges and develop an integrated risk assessment model VFS–IEM–IDM to quantify the dynamic risk of compound hazards based on variable fuzzy set theory (VFS), information entropy method (IEM), and information diffusion method (IDM). For the first challenge, VFS–IEM–IDM measures the effect of the compound hazard drivers via the use of relative membership degree and analyses the correlation between drivers with the entropy weight method, which is combined to evaluate compound hazard level. To address the second challenge, VFS–IEM–IDM applies the normal diffusion function to estimate the probability distribution of the compound hazard and the corresponding loss vulnerability curve. To deal with the third challenge, VFS–IEM–IDM assesses the risk of a compound hazard in different months based on the definition of probabilistic risk. In the end, this paper takes the typhoon–rainstorm disaster in Shenzhen, China, as an example to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed VFS–IEM–IDM model. The results show that VFS–IEM–IDM effectively estimates the typhoon–rainstorm compound hazard level and assesses the dynamic risk of the compound hazards.

Authors: Caponnetto Pasquale , LaMattina Gaia , Quattropani Maria C 
Published: October 2022

Background Music therapy is a discipline that makes use of music, active or passive, to produce beneficial effects on the psyche of subjects. The field of use of music therapy has recently been broadened with the introduction of music therapy interventions to treat various problems, such as anxiety and stress, arising from pre- and post-operative psychophysical conditions. This review aims to examine the use of music therapy and its outcomes in the context of surgery in recent years. Methods The main procedure was to search for studies on various scientific platforms such as PubMed, Medline, PsycINFO and CINAHL.Many studies pertaining to the topic in question were examined and from the variety of articles available, thirty-four were selected that fully reflected the focus of this review. Conclusions The use of music therapy is still little exploited in hospital conditions such as the one reported in this review, but despite its reduced use compared to other treatments, it has proved to be an effective technique for reducing anxiety and stress prior to surgery and for improving psychophysical conditions following surgery. Above all, the absence of side effects is emphasised since it is a nonpharmacological treatment. Further research is needed for additional confirmation of the effectiveness of music therapy mainly because this method is still being explored worldwide.

The Five different cropping patterns such as Fallow-Fallow-Fallow (F-F-F), Sugarcane-Sugarcane-T Aman (S-S-R), Vegetables-Fallow-T Aman (V-F-R), Fallow-Fallow-T Aman (F-F-R) and Fallow-Mung bean- T Aman (F-M-R) from Jessore district were investigated for carbon sequestration in soil aggreagates. Highest value of bulk density (1.53 g cm-3) was found in S-S-R and lowest (1.27 g cm-3) in F-M-R. The soil under V-F-R exhibited highest porosity (47.76%). F-M-R exhibited highest saturated hydraulic conductivity (15.36 cm day‑1). The state of aggregation and degree of aggregation was found high under F-F-R. The dispersion factor was highest under F-F-F (13.32%) and lowest under F-F-R (7.04%). The soil organic carbon (SOC) associated with >0.05 mm aggregates was generally higher than that with 0.05-0.002 mm and <0.002 mm aggregates. The clay associated (<0.002 mm) SOC was higher than SOC in 0.05-0.002 mm aggregates. The highest SOC in >0.05 mm aggregate and <0.002 mm particles were found under F-M-R and S-S-R patterns, respectively.
