Painfully bored: the role of negative urgency and history of Non-Suicidal Self-Injury in Self-Administering painful stimuli
Authors: Yusoufzai Morsal Khouwaga , Vancleef Linda , Lobbestael Jill , Nederkoorn Chantal 
Published: August 2022

AbstractThe current study aims to examine the causal effect of boredom on non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI), expanding prior experimental research by including an anger induction to compare to a boredom induction, and additionally measuring whether participants specifically seekpainfulstimulation. In a sample of mostly undergraduate students (N = 146), emotional state was manipulated through video induction, and NSSI behavior was simultaneously measured, operationalized through self-administration of electric shocks. Participants’ pain thresholds were measured beforehand. NSSI history and negative urgency were included as potential moderators. Results showed that boredom increased both frequency and intensity of self-administered electric shocks, especially in participants with an NSSI history. Negative urgency was not a significant moderator. No causal anger-NSSI link was found, possibly due to the anger induction not being sufficiently effective. Clinical implications are considered through suggestions of boredom coping skills training as an intervention strategy in NSSI populations.

AbstractUniversal access to safe drinking water is essential to population health and well-being, as recognized in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). To develop targeted policies which improve urban access to improved water and ensure equity, there is the need to understand the spatial heterogeneity in drinking water sources and the factors underlying these patterns. Using the Shannon Entropy Index and the Index of Concentration at the Extremes at the enumeration area level, we analyzed census data to examine the spatial heterogeneity in drinking water sources and neighborhood income in the Greater Accra Metropolitan Area (GAMA), the largest urban agglomeration in Ghana. GAMA has been a laboratory for studying urban growth, economic security, and other concomitant socio-environmental and demographic issues in the recent past. The current study adds to this literature by telling a different story about the spatial heterogeneity of GAMA’s water landscape at the enumeration area level. The findings of the study reveal considerable geographical heterogeneity and inequality in drinking water sources not evidenced in previous studies. We conclude that heterogeneity is neither good nor bad in GAMA judging by the dominance of both piped water sources and sachet water (machine-sealed 500-ml plastic bag of drinking water). The lessons from this study can be used to inform the planning of appropriate localized solutions targeted at providing piped water sources in neighborhoods lacking these services and to monitor progress in achieving universal access to improved drinking water as recognized in the SDG 6 and improving population health and well-being.
The influence of Covid-19 on publications in economics: bibliometric evidence from five working paper series
Authors: Bürgi Constantin , Wohlrabe Klaus 
Published: August 2022

AbstractWe compare Covid-related working papers in economics to non-Covid-related working papers in four dimensions. Based on five well-known working papers series and data from the RePEc website, we find that Covid papers mainly cover topics in macroeconomics and health, they are written by larger teams than non-Covid papers, are more often downloaded and they receive more citations relative to non-Covid papers.
On Processing Potato. 5. Survey of Societal Benefits, Stewardship and Surroundings

Published: August 2022

Abstract
Wheat, the most important food crop, can be stored for a much longer time than potato. It is ground and made into flour or pasta that can be turned into bread or a dish at any time. Potato is only storable for a limited period, so it floods the market at harvest. Major benefits of processing for growers include regulating the availability of markets and price through contracts, and the decrease in the number of consumers buying fresh tubers is compensated by processors buying raw material. Processors add value and employment and consumers are offered a wide array of affordable and convenient products. Large potato processing companies produce annual sustainability reports advocating measures for growers to spare the habitat, more efficient processes in factories, newer and healthier products and supporting communities. These are recorded and viewed in a theoretical triangulation from the angles of processors, and those trying to bend the rules. The industry, especially when expanding to new (developing) markets, faces political, economic, social, technological, environmental and legal (PESTEL) issues that fluctuate according to the presence of a raw material base, competition and buying power and culture of the consumers.
Listening for futures along Birrarung Marr: speculative immersive experience in environmental education
Authors: Rousell David , Peñaloza-Caicedo Andreia 
Published: August 2022

AbstractThis paper considers experiences of speculative immersion as artists and children map the multilayered sonic ecology of Birrarung Marr, a traditional meeting place for Aboriginal language groups of the Eastern Kulin Nation. We explore how speculative practices of immersion shaped the mapping of precolonial, contemporary, and future soundscapes of Birrarung Marr, and the ceremonial burial of these sonic cartographies for future listeners. Bringing together Indigenous and non-Indigenous concepts of immersion in mutually respectful and purposeful conversation, we work to re-theorise immersive experience as a process of ecological multiplicity and affective resonance, rather than one of phenomenological containment. By approaching immersion as both a concept and a sensation that ruptures the boundary between body and environment, we follow how immersion ‘drifts’ across porous thresholds of sensing, thinking, dreaming, making, and knowing in situated environmental education contexts. In doing so, the paper stresses the importance of speculative immersive experience in cultivating liveable urban futures under conditions of climate change, and responds to the need for new understandings of immersion that take more-than-human ecologies of experience into account.
Zeroing In on the Expected Returns of Anomalies
Authors: Chen Andrew Y. , Velikov Mihail 
Published: August 2022

AbstractWe zero in on the expected returns of long-short portfolios based on 204 stock market anomalies by accounting for i) effective bid–ask spreads, ii) post-publication effects, and iii) the modern era of trading technology that began in the early 2000s. Net of these effects, the average anomaly’s expected return is a measly 4 bps per month. The strongest anomalies net, at best, 10 bps after controlling for data mining. Several methods for combining anomalies net around 20 bps. Expected returns are negligible despite cost mitigations that produce impressive net returns in-sample and the omission of additional trading costs, like price impact.

Published: August 2022

AbstractBackgroundCognitive processing therapy (CPT) and prolonged exposure (PE) delivered in an individual setting are efficacious and effective treatments for veterans with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Group CPT has been shown to be less efficacious than individual CPT, however, evidence regarding real-world effectiveness is limited.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective, observational, comparative effectiveness study including veterans that received at least eight sessions of group CPT, individual CPT, or individual PE, and were discharged from PTSD residential treatment at the Department of Veterans Affairs between 1 October 2015, and 30 September 2020. PTSD symptom severity was assessed with the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) and treatments delivered in a group (CPT) or individual (CPT or PE) setting were compared at discharge and 4-month post-discharge follow-up.ResultsOf 6735 veterans, 3888 [653 women (17%), median (IQR) age 45 (35–55) years] received individual and 2847 [206 women (7.2%), median (IQR) age 42 (34–54)] received group therapy. At discharge, improvement in PTSD severity was statistically greater among those treated individually (mean difference on the PCL-5, 2.55 (95% CI 1.61–3.49); p = <0.001]. However, the difference was smaller than the minimal clinically important difference of 7.9 points. The groups did not differ significantly at 4-month follow-up [mean difference on the PCL-5, 0.37 (95% CI −0.86 to 1.60); p = 0.551].ConclusionGroup CPT was associated with a slightly smaller reduction of PTSD symptom severity than individual CPT or PE in veterans at the end of residential treatment. There were no differences at 4-month follow-up.
Prosocial behavior and psychopathology: An 11-year longitudinal study of inter- and intraindividual reciprocal relations across childhood and adolescence
Authors: Memmott-Elison Madison K. , Toseeb Umar 
Published: August 2022

AbstractThe current study investigated whether prosocial behavior and emotional problems, peer problems, conduct problems, and hyperactivity and inattention problems were long-term longitudinally and bidirectionally related at inter- and or intra-individual levels from early childhood through mid-adolescence. Parents in the United Kingdom reported their child’s prosocial behavior and multidimensional psychopathology at ages 3, 5, 7, 11, and 14 years (N = 16,984, 51% male, 83% White). Four random intercepts cross-lagged panel models were fitted. Higher levels of earlier prosocial behavior were associated with greater than expected decrements in psychopathology. At an intraindividual, within-person level, prosocial behavior was negatively bidirectionally associated with peer, conduct, and hyperactivity and inattention problems. Also at an intraindividual, within-person level, prosocial behavior was unidirectionally protective against emotional problems. At an interindividual level, prosocial behavior and each dimension of psychopathology were negatively associated. Therefore, engaging in prosocial behavior can reduce psychopathological symptoms over time (and vice versa), and youth who are more prosocial also tend to experience fewer psychopathological symptoms. Intraindividual associations were small while interindividual associations were moderate to large. Implications for theory, future research, and evidence-based interventions are discussed.
Longitudinal associations between academic competence-building and depression symptoms in early adolescence

AbstractThe longitudinal associations between academic competence-building and depression symptoms were investigated among 741 early adolescents in Singapore. Extending from past studies on academic achievement and depression, the current research tested two competing hypotheses – theacademic incompetencehypothesis versus theadjustment erosionhypothesis using a 3-wave longitudinal study over an academic year. The former hypothesis suggests that prior deficits in academic competence-building lead to subsequent depression symptoms, whereas the latter posits that previous depression leads to subsequent deficits in competence-building. Longitudinal associations between a higher-order competence-building factor (operationalized using multiple constituent motivational variables) and depression were examined using a random intercept cross-lagged panel model. Results indicated that within-individual decreases in competence-building prospectively predicted subsequent within-individual increases in depression symptoms, but the opposite effect was not observed. Within-individual fluctuations in competence-building also predicted end-of-year grades and teacher-reported adjustment problems. Overall, the current findings were consistent with the academic incompetence hypothesis, suggesting that interventions aimed at sustaining academic competence-building could offer protection against the worsening of depression. These results clarified the within-individual developmental dynamics between academic competence-building and depression symptoms in adolescents over time.
The archer and the arrow: Zen Buddhism and the politics of religion in Nazi Germany
Authors: Panzer Sarah 
Published: August 2022

AbstractZen may be most commonly associated with Japan, but the ‘art of Zen’ was made in Germany. This article reconstructs the reception of Zen Buddhism in Nazi Germany as an extension of the regime’s project to transform Christianity. Although Japanese reformers emphasized Zen’s universal qualities, in Nazi Germany it became associated instead with a combination of völkisch nationalism and spiritual mysticism mirroring Nazi aspirations for a ‘positive’ German form of Christianity. That project may have been discredited after 1945, but the image of Zen cultivated by Nazi ideologues transitioned more or less seamlessly into the post-war New Age movement. This phenomenon thus merits attention not only for what it reveals about the extent to which Germany remained engaged in global intellectual and cultural currents during the Nazi era but also in complicating our historical understanding of how Zen came to be part of the contemporary global vernacular.

AbstractOptimizing research on the developmental origins of health and disease (DOHaD) involves implementing initiatives maximizing the use of the available cohort study data; achieving sufficient statistical power to support subgroup analysis; and using participant data presenting adequate follow-up and exposure heterogeneity. It also involves being able to undertake comparison, cross-validation, or replication across data sets. To answer these requirements, cohort study data need to be findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR), and more particularly, it often needs to be harmonized. Harmonization is required to achieve or improve comparability of the putatively equivalent measures collected by different studies on different individuals. Although the characteristics of the research initiatives generating and using harmonized data vary extensively, all are confronted by similar issues. Having to collate, understand, process, host, and co-analyze data from individual cohort studies is particularly challenging. The scientific success and timely management of projects can be facilitated by an ensemble of factors. The current document provides an overview of the ‘life course’ of research projects requiring harmonization of existing data and highlights key elements to be considered from the inception to the end of the project.
Fundamental Ingredients of Australian Rainfall Extremes
Authors: White B. A. , Jakob C. , Reeder M. J. 
Published: August 2022

AbstractSatellite observations of Australian rainfall are used with reanalysis fields to identify the fundamental ingredients that distinguish extreme rain days from non‐extreme rain days. We analyze regions from the tropics to the mid‐latitudes, seeking to address whether regions with very different large‐scale circulations have common factors required for extreme rainfall, and if so, what synoptic conditions lead to the development of the extremes. In all regions, extreme rain days occur in locally strong ascent, high moisture, and an atmosphere closer to saturation throughout the depth of the free troposphere than on weaker intensity rain days, although the synoptic processes leading to the development of these local conditions vary regionally. The concentration of moisture over several days preceding an extreme is important to the development of the extreme. We show that the local values of precipitable water and mid‐level ascent can indicate whether a rain day will be extreme. The analysis uses 20 years of satellite‐derived rain estimates covering the period 1998–2017, averaged daily and over 100 × 100 km2 areas centered on the Australian cities of Darwin (tropical), Brisbane (subtropical), and Melbourne (mid‐latitude). The daily mean rainfalls are ranked by intensity, and the top 100 days in each region are selected as extremes. The large‐scale conditions of these extreme rain days are taken from reanalysis and compared against those of the median and low intensity rain days in each region.
Sea Ice Elevation in the Western Weddell Sea, Antarctica: Observations From Field Campaign

Published: August 2022

AbstractSea ice elevation is crucial in the characterization of three‐dimensional (3D) sea ice patterns, providing physical insights to advance sea ice dynamic models. Moreover, how sea ice elevation may be related to the ocean geophysical environment is still a significant knowledge gap, especially in Antarctica. A radar theory relating electromagnetic scattering mechanisms to sea ice elevation over old and deformed rough ice has been reported in a prior companion paper. This follow‐up paper presents the validated model function and synthetic aperture radar (SAR)‐retrieved sea ice elevations based on the field data acquired during the Operation IceBridge and TanDEM‐X Antarctic Science Campaign. A high‐resolution sea ice digital elevation model (DEM) is generated extensively over a 19 × 450 km sector in the Western Weddell Sea, achieving a good accuracy with a low root‐mean‐square error of 0.23 m. From the SAR‐retrieved sea ice DEM, 3D sea ice patterns including roughness height, auto‐correlation lengths, correlation ellipticity, and orientation angles are calculated over the old and deformed rough sea ice. The 3D sea ice patterns give a comprehensive characterization of sea ice topography in the Western Weddell Sea and show the potential to be used for understanding sea ice formation processes in the Antarctic.
Carbonation of Serpentinite in Creeping Faults of California

Published: August 2022

AbstractSeveral large strike slip faults in central and northern California accommodate plate motions through aseismic creep. Although there is no consensus regarding the underlying cause of aseismic creep, aqueous fluids and mechanically weak, velocity‐strengthening minerals appear to play a central role. This study integrates field observations and thermodynamic modeling to examine possible relationships between the occurrence of serpentinite, silica‐carbonate rock, and CO2‐rich aqueous fluids in creeping faults of California. Our models predict that carbonation of serpentinite leads to the formation of talc and magnesite, followed by silica‐carbonate rock. While abundant exposures of silica‐carbonate rock indicate complete carbonation, serpentinite‐hosted CO2‐rich spring fluids are strongly supersaturated with talc at elevated temperatures. Hence, carbonation of serpentinite is likely ongoing in parts of the San Andres Fault system and operates in conjunction with other modes of talc formation that may further enhance the potential for aseismic creep, thereby limiting the potential for large earthquakes.
Contrasting Circulation Patterns of Dry and Humid Heatwaves Over Southern China
Authors: Luo Ming , Wu Sijia , Liu Zhen , Lau Ngar‐Cheung 
Published: August 2022

AbstractHeatwaves pose severe threats to human health, especially those combining heat and humidity. Here, we use dry‐ and wet‐bulb temperatures as indicators to classify dry and humid heatwaves in southern China and distinguish their different mechanisms. We find that both dry and humid heatwaves are accompanied by an eastward extension of the South Asian high, a westward extension of the western North Pacific subtropical high, and a low‐level anticyclonic anomaly. The major differences between dry and humid heatwaves are that these anomalies are more widespread albeit weaker and shift more southward for humid than dry heatwaves. Consequently, dry heatwaves are associated with drastically increased temperature and decreased relative humidity, while humid heatwaves are accompanied by relatively weaker but more expanded temperature increases and stronger increases in humidity. Understanding the differences between dry and humid heatwaves and their origins advances our knowledge of heatwaves which can better mitigate their detrimental effects.
Synoptic Impacts on the Occurrence of Mesoscale Boundaries and Their Associated Convection Over an Area of Sharp Vegetation Contrast

Published: August 2022

AbstractThis study examined synoptic impacts on the occurrence of boundaries and their associated convection during summers from 2012 to 2016 over Hetao Irrigation District in North China, where there is a sharp vegetation contrast. Objective synoptic‐pattern classification showed that boundary days, especially convective boundary days, were more frequent under a mid‐troposphere high‐pressure ridge or pre‐trough pattern. Such patterns featured a warmer near‐surface environment, stronger southerly winds, larger convective available potential energy (CAPE), and low‐level moisture convergence. Relative to unfavorable patterns, boundaries under favorable patterns showed more apparent arid‐area dependence, more dominant orientation along the line of vegetation contrast, more moved northward, formed and matured earlier, and triggered convection more dispersedly. Under each pattern, compared with nonboundary days, boundary days possessed higher near‐surface temperatures and stronger ambient flows against the vegetation‐contrast‐induced circulations near the surface; plus, compared with nonconvective boundary days, convective boundary days possessed stronger updrafts, larger CAPE, and higher moisture and K index.
Transcrustal Compressible Fluid Flow Explains the Altiplano‐Puna Gravity and Deformation Anomalies
Authors: Gottsmann J. , Eiden E. , Pritchard M. E. 
Published: August 2022

AbstractEnigmatic large‐scale (>150 km wide) ground deformation in southern Bolivia has been ongoing for more than 50 year. Concurrent changes in gravity recorded between 2010 and 2018 imply minor changes in subsurface density in the absence of significant mass changes. Numerical modeling of the gravity changes and concurrent InSAR LOS displacements gives annual bulk density changes of 0.002 kg m−3 in the Altiplano‐Puna Magma Body (APMB) and −0.03 kg m−3 in a vertical bulge‐column ensemble beneath Uturuncu volcano. We propose that the transcrustal migration of fluids from the APMB to shallower crustal levels by compressible flow is the source of ground deformation. Localized ground subsidence south of Uturuncu can be best explained by a density decrease of 20 ± 5 kg m−3 between 2011 and 2013 in a hydrothermal reservoir. Our findings contribute to the growing recognition of transcrustal fluid migration as a source of volcanic unrest.
