title: In pursuit of process in personality prevarication: developing a model of faking behaviour
Creators: name: Fuechtenhans, Miriam
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2024

description: Test users have been concerned about the use of self-reported measures in high stakes assessments of personality, competencies and similar because they are open to socially desirable responding and even outright faking by respondents. Although there is a large body of quantitative research investigating the response process of faking on personality assessments, for both rating scales (RS) and multidimensional forced-choice (MFC), only a few studies have yet qualitatively investigated the underlying process mechanisms of faking when responding to MFC in a high stakes context (e.g., Sass et al., 2020). Thus, the question of what is going on in people's minds when completing a questionnaire in high stakes remains. Yet, I believe that we can only gather valid and valuable information from assessments once we establish a robust process model that effectively captures the decision-making process in high stakes scenarios. Subsequently, this thesis presents the Activate-Rank-Edit-Submit model (A-R-E-S model), a novel process model of applicant faking when responding to MFC personality assessment. To develop and validate this model, I identified stages and decision points within the response process that lead to either honest or falsified response and verified them by qualitatively examining the test takers' cognitions (Study 1, Chapter 3), and by experimentally manipulating factors that were thought to underpin these cognitions (Studies 2-5, Chapters 4-6). Overall, the A-R-E-S model stands as a promising tool, inviting continued investigation and refinement to better grasp the complexities of personality assessment in real-world scenarios.

description: Background: Few studies have examined links between current alcohol dependence and specific harms among Indigenous Australians. We investigated these associations as well as help seeking for drinking, awareness of local treatments and recommendations to help family or friends cut down or stop drinking in two Indigenous communities. Methods: A representative sample of Indigenous Australians was surveyed in one urban and one remote community in South Australia. Data were collected via the Grog Survey App. Participants were dependent if they reported two or more symptoms of alcohol dependence (ICD-11). Pearson chi-square tests were used to describe relationships between employment by gender, and dependence by awareness of medicines and local treatment options. Multivariate logistic regressions were used to predict the odds of dependent drinkers experiencing harms and getting help for drinking, controlling for age, gender, schooling and income. Results: A total of 775 Indigenous Australians took part in the study. After controlling for confounders, dependent drinkers were nearly eight times more likely to report a harm and nearly three times more likely to get help for their drinking—compared with non-dependent drinkers. Participants recommended accessing local support from an Aboriginal alcohol and other drugs worker, or a detoxification/ rehabilitation service. Discussion and conclusions: More support and funding is needed for Indigenous Australians to ensure local treatment options for dependent drinkers are readily available, appropriate and accessible. Involvement of local Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander health professionals in delivery of care can help ensure that it is appropriate to an individual’s culture and context.

description: This specification contains 14 metrics proposed by FAIRsFAIR to evaluate FAIRness of research data in Trustworthy Digital Repositories (TDRs). We developed the metrics based on existing work (RDA FAIR Data Maturity Model, FAIRdat and FAIREnough, WDS/RDA Assessment of Data Fitness), and adapted them to accommodate the requirements of two main use cases the project prioritized: A TDR will offer a self-assessment tool to educate and raise awareness of researchers on making their data FAIR before depositing the data into the repository. A TDR committed to FAIR data provision wants to programmatically evaluate published data for their level of FAIRness over time. To facilitate both use cases, currently we are developing a manual self-assessment tool and an automated assessment service. These tools will support data FAIRness evaluation based on the metrics proposed. They will be piloted with repositories selected for in-depth collaboration with the project iteratively from 1st May 2020 - 31st August 2021. The metrics should not be regarded as final but rather as first prioritized criteria for piloting data FAIRness assessment in the context of the use cases above.

We improved the metrics based on a focus group's feedback and the RDA-endorsed FAIR data maturity model guidelines and specification. A total of 33 FAIR stakeholders, such as research communities, data service providers, standard bodies, and coordination fora participated in the focus group. In its current form, the specification applies metrics that may correspond to all or part of one or more FAIR principles. We will refine and revise the metrics through several iterations based on feedback from stakeholders interested in FAIR, and on implementation of our use cases to demonstrate FAIR assessment. The assessment focuses on generally applicable data/metadata characteristics until domain/community-driven criteria have been agreed (e.g., appropriate schemas and required elements for usage/access control). FAIR enabling services and repositories are vital to ensure that research data objects remain FAIR over time. Machine-readable services (e.g., registries) and documents (e.g., policies) are required to enable proposed automated tests. Corrigendum Footnote 6

description: Many
studies have now demonstrated the positive effects on humans from brief,
unstructured interactions with dogs, including improved mood and reduced
anxiety. Few studies, though, have explored the psychological impact when
humans take part in more structured obedience training with the dog. This study
examined the effects of owners taking part in a single session of online-guided
training with their own dog in their own home during COVID-19 lockdowns. This
group was compared to a similar group having an unstructured play session with
their dog. Dog-owner relationship quality was also measured to investigate
whether this influenced any observed changes to the outcome variables. Participants
(N = 83) were assigned to either the training group, involving 10-minutes of
basic obedience training, or a play group, involving 10-minutes of unstructured
play. Before the sessions, participants in each group watched videos
demonstrating the interaction and then completed the Dog Owner Relationship
Scale (DORS) to measure owner-dog relationship quality. Before and immediately
after the session, they completed the 6-item version of the state scale of the
State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-6), the Positive and Negative Affect
Schedule (PANAS), and the New General Self-Efficacy Scale (NGSE). A mixed
between-within multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was conducted with
follow-up Bonferroni-corrected univariate analysis of variance, to measure
differences in the outcomes between groups over time. Results indicated no
significant differences between groups, but revealed a significant, large
effect on scores for both groups on all measures over time. Multiple
regression, analysing interaction effects between the outcome measures and the
DORS, found no significant effects, indicating dog-owner relationship did not
moderate the observed improvements over time. Results from this preliminary
study suggest that a brief, single-session, online-guided interaction with a
dog – whether training or playing with them – can confer short-term,
psychological benefits for the owners.

description: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of biofield energy treatment on the isotopic abundance of 13C/12C or 2H/1H or 15N/14N ≡ (PM+1)/PM in aniline; and (PM+1)/PM and 81Br/79Br ≡ (PM+2)/PM in 4-bromoaniline using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). Aniline and 4-bromoaniline samples were divided into two parts: control and treated. The control part remained as untreated, while the treated part was subjected to Mr. Trivedi’s biofield energy treatment. The treated samples were subdivided in three parts named as T1, T2, and T3 for aniline and four parts named as T1, T2, T3, and T4 for 4-bromoaniline. The GC-MS data revealed that the isotopic abundance ratio of (PM+1)/PM in aniline was increased from -40.82%, 30.17% and 73.12% in T1, T2 and T3 samples respectively. However in treated samples of 4-bromoaniline the isotopic abundance ratio of PM+1/PM was increased exponentially from -4.36 % (T1) to 368.3% (T4) as compared to the control. A slight decreasing trend of the isotopic ratio of (PM+2)/ PM in 4-bromoaniline was observed after biofield energy treatment. The GC-MS data suggests that the biofield energy treatment has significantly increased the isotopic abundance of 2H, 13C and 15N in the treated aniline and 4-bromoaniline, while slight decreased the isotopic abundance of 81Br in treated 4-bromoaniline as compared to their respective control.

description: Saudi Arabia has a goal of ensuring that it has at least two cities among the top 100 smart cities of the future. However, increasing connectivity and incorporation of smart solutions in cities still raises concerns over cyber security with threats arising daily including denial of services and phishing as some of the most significant. Saudi Arabia, therefore, needs a cybersecurity policy framework that will ensure effective protection for all stakeholders in the smart city from these cyber threats. User acceptance is foremost important in any new technology, including smart-cities. Due to ongoing cyber threats and in the absence of an efficient cyber policies, Saudi end-user community is not keen to accept newer technologies where their interaction with online medium is required. The proliferation of smart cities globally affords the opportunity to analyze and compare the efforts made in Saudi Arabia with other nations like the USA, India and Singapore which is the premier smart city model in the globe currently. This review looks at the similarities and differences between KSA’s cyber security policy framework with these three nations. The review will note some of the defining characteristics and approaches to cyber security in the smart cities of USA, India, and Singapore. After reviewing the current framework in Saudi Arabia, this paper will make suggestions such as updating Saudi’s cybercrime legislation like in the US or formulating a master cyber security plan as seen in Singapore that will improve KSA’s framework creating the best framework model for cyber security in its smart cities.

description: This article addresses the challenge of providing legal protection for climate-forced migrants, an emerging category of individuals facing vulnerability. Despite the growing recognition of this phenomenon, there remains a lack of legal classification for these migrants. The authors posit that an investigation of this subject matter necessitates a multi-level approach anchored in the tenets of fundamental rights. The essay begins by analysing the EU and national legal frameworks, with a particular focus on some Member States that have implemented more advanced protection measures. It then turns to an examination of significant national case law, which reveals that in certain instances, judges have granted legal protection to climate migrants. In these cases, the courts have emphasised the environmental cause of forced movement, recognising it as a factor that impacts individual lives and rights. The objective of this examination is to assess whether the argumentative theses proposed by the judges allow for a resolution of the critical issues emerging from the gap in the legal framework, in consideration of the parameters of legitimacy on the protection of fundamental rights. In the final section of the article, the primary arguments developed by case law are evaluated in order to ascertain their replicability in different contexts.

Estce une question d’harmonisation de contenus des programmes, ou bien c’est une question de réalisation individuelle de la part de l’enseignant, qu’il pourrait traduire en un polycopié de cours. Notre étude tente de répondre à ce questionnement. À travers des enquêtes de terrain, nous avons tenté de mettre l’accent sur deux outils pédagogiques incontournables dans un contexte universitaire à savoir : le polycopié du cours et le programme. Nous cherchons à savoir comment sont-ils perçus par les enseignants ? Si, le support d’un cours est considéré comme un élément indispensable de l’enseignement, qui soutient et illustre le discours de l’enseignant pendant le cours magistral, pourquoi ne pas l’adopter comme support d’apprentissage ? Et pour se faire nous avons adressé desquestionnaires à l’attention des enseignants du département de Français pour nous renseigner sur certaines de leurs pratiques pédagogiques.

description: Mitochondrial biogenesis is a highly controlled process that depends on diverse signalling pathways responding to cellular and environmental signals. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a critical metabolic enzyme that acts at a central control point in cellular energy homeostasis. Nu-merous studies have revealed the crucial roles of AMPK in the regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis; however, molecular mechanisms underlying this process are still largely unknown. Previously, we have shown that, in cellular slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum, the overexpression of the catalytic α subunit of AMPK led to enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis, which was accompanied by reduced cell growth and aberrant development. Here, we applied mass spectrometry-based proteomics of Dictyostelium mitochondria to determine the impact of chronically active AMPKα on the phosphory-lation state and abundance of mitochondrial proteins and to identify potential protein targets leading to the biogenesis of mitochondria. Our results demonstrate that enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis is associated with variations in the phosphorylation levels and abundance of proteins related to energy metabolism, protein synthesis, transport, inner membrane biogenesis, and cellular signalling. The observed changes are accompanied by elevated mitochondrial respiratory activity in the AMPK overexpression strain. Our work is the first study reporting on the global phosphoproteome profiling of D. discoideum mitochondria and its changes as a response to constitutively active AMPK. We also propose an interplay between the AMPK and mTORC1 signalling pathways in controlling the cellular growth and biogenesis of mitochondria in Dictyostelium as a model organism.

The migration of groundwater (and other types of fluids, in general) in fractured rocks allows

the interaction between fluids in geochemical disequilibrium with the host rocks (i.e., large

geochemical gradients) promoting water-rock reactions inside the fractures. These reactions

may influence the permeability and porosity, as well as they may lead to fracture sealing. So,

a thorough understanding of the coupled hydro-chemical processing that occur in fractured

media is important for applications such as the ore deposit exploration, the protection and

remediation of aquifers used for drinking water production or the safety assessment of deep

geological repositories for spent nuclear fuel, energy storage, nuclear waste disposal sites.

 

In this contribution, geochemical reactions are being implemented in dfnWorks software to

quantify the impact of geochemical reactions in a synthetic fracture network and compare the

model results with natural examples. One of the potential impacts would be the modification

of groundwater flow patterns due to mineral precipitation or dissolution. Also, the DFN-based

reactive transport simulations also can help predict the effect of physical properties of the

fractures, like aperture, and the chemical composition of the fluids on the reactive transport.

 

In this research, the model predictions have been made in a synthetic fracture network where

two geochemically distinct fluids mix leading to the precipitation of barite. This is a common

phenomenon observed in many fractured rocks undergoing extensional tectonics. The model

results predict that barite precipitates in a main fault from the first fluid mixing and the

precipitation keeps increasing there without a significant spreading to connected neighbour

fractures. This agrees with observation in nature where barite precipitation is concentrated in

few fracture veins within a large fracture network. The precipitation amounts and rate seemed

to be sensitive to the reaction rate, fluids pressure gradient, and fracture aperture dimensions.

While it showed no major sensitivity to the fluid temperature, all these factors were modelled under isothermal conditions and constant permeability. Further work will be focused on non-

isothermal models, and precipitation pattern comparison with actual barite veins in the Catalan Coastal Ranges.

title: National minority rights and the EU’s Eastern Partnership: a normative blind spot?
Creators: name: Donnelly, Graham John
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow

Subjects: subject: European Union, minority rights, ethnic minority, Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, former Soviet Republics, European Union external affairs, conditionality.

description: The EU continues to assert for itself a role as an advocate and promoter of the rights of minorities in its external affairs. This thesis, however, demonstrates that when it comes to the EU’s reform agenda in its relations with the Eastern Partnership (“EaP”), minority rights represent a normative blind spot.
Drawing upon debates and empirical works centred around Manners’ (2002) conceptualization of the EU as a ‘Normative Power Europe’, this thesis sets out to assess the extent to which Manners’ inclusion of minority rights as one of the pillars of the EU’s normative identity and its external affairs ‘toolkit’ is justified. The analytical framework created to make this assessment rests upon three core questions: a) do national minority rights and protections form part of the EU’s external affairs role and EU identity; b) what does the manner in which the EU interacts with the EaP in this policy field reveal about the EU as a normative actor; and c) what impact does the EU have in the field of minority rights policy in the EaP.
Utilising elite interviews on the ground in three EaP states (Georgia, Ukraine and Moldova - “the EaP3”) and a documentary analysis of the key documents framing the EU’s relations with each, this thesis argues that in its relations with the EaP3, the EU has largely replicated prior failings in this policy field identified in the scholarship focussed on its accession processes during the 2004, 2007 and 2013 enlargements. Moreover, where the EU claims to have addressed minority rights in its deepening relationships with the EaP3, it has restricted itself to a conceptualisation of minority rights at odds with both its prior practice in accession negotiations as well as in wider, European and international understandings of such rights. In effect, despite its own claims to the contrary, the EU has marginalised national minority rights in its relations with the EaP3.

description: Aims: This study aimed to examine perceived social norms, the effect of parental drinking on these norms, alcohol use in front of children, and how norms and consumption vary based on child age and gender of the parent. Methods: A cross-sectional online panel survey was undertaken with n = 1000 Australian adults (including 670 parents) aged 18-59 years. The survey assessed: alcohol consumption in front of children; normative attitudes towards drinking in the presence of children; and perceived social norms. Results: Overall, 33.9% of parents reported drinking a glass of alcohol each day or a couple of times a week, 18.2% reported getting slightly drunk and 7.8% indicated getting visibly drunk each day or a couple of times a week with their children present. In total, 37.5% reported drinking in front of their children at least weekly. Fathers were more likely to drink in front of children than mothers. Most parents deemed drinking small amounts of alcohol in front of children as acceptable but did not accept drunkenness. Respondents were less concerned about a father drinking one or two drinks in front of their children than a mother. Social expectations were not related to child age, but norms related to others' perceived behaviour were. Conclusions: Many parents, particularly fathers consume alcohol in front of their children. There is a need to target health promotion strategies to adults and parents consuming in excess of health guidelines, and to the many parents who are consuming alcohol at higher levels in front of their children.

description: Abstract: Entrepreneurship Study Centres (ESCs) in African and Asian Universities are reshaping academic landscapes by fostering creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurial spirit among students and staff. These centres are critical in addressing unemployment and driving economic growth through structured entrepreneurial training. Despite the growing role of ESCs, their potential remains underexplored in mainstream academic discourse. Limited research exists on their direct impact on job creation, social transformation, and sustainable development. This study bridges that gap by highlighting their role in unlocking latent entrepreneurial talents. It examines how ESCs function as incubators for innovation, job creation, and economic transformation. The study investigates their effectiveness in equipping students with the skills, mentorship, and resources necessary to translate ideas into viable ventures. A qualitative and case-based approach was used, drawing from real-world evidence and success stories from African and Asian universities. The study analysed ESCs' mentorship programs, industry collaborations, and entrepreneurship education models. Findings reveal that ESCs significantly enhance entrepreneurial capacity, promote innovation through competitions, and facilitate knowledge transfer. However, challenges such as inadequate infrastructure, bureaucratic bottlenecks, and funding limitations hinder their full potential. ESCs represent a transformative force in higher education, unlocking economic and social potential. The study calls for an improved and consistent integration of entrepreneurship education into university curricula while advocating for sustained funding, policy incentives, and strategic partnerships to maximize their impact. Strengthening ESCs will drive Africa and Asia’s academic communities toward a future defined by innovation and sustainable enterprise.
