description: Vaping nicotine is a growing public health issue, especially among adolescents and young adults (Murthy, 2017; Virgili et al., 2022). Understanding young people's motivations for vaping nicotine will inform effective prevention and intervention strategies. Decisional balance (DB) is a decision-making model that assumes that behavior is influenced by the balance of potential pros and cons of the consequences of engaging in the behavior (Janis and Mann, 1977). DB measures have been developed and validated for various health-related behaviors including cigarette smoking, yet no measure exists for vaping. In this three-phase mixed methods study a nicotine vaping decisional balance scale (NVDB) was developed. In Phase I, an 87-item pilot measure was developed based on open-ended responses from 180 young adults about the pros and cons of vaping nicotine, along with a literature review, and an expert review. In Phase II, the scale was administered to 616 young adults and an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was conducted. Items that did not load well on a discrete factor, had little variability, were highly redundant, or were highly correlated were omitted. In Phase III, 665 young adults completed the revised 41-item DB along with other measures. After principal axis factoring with varimax rotation and item analysis, 10 pros and 10 cons were retained. A 2-factor solution consisting of Vaping Pros and Vaping Cons accounted for 60% of the variance. Cons were subtracted from pros to create a DB score, with positive scores reflecting greater importance of pros relative to cons. As predicted, lifetime e-cig users (n = 368) had significantly higher DB scores than never users (n = 297). Among e-cig users, DB scores were significantly correlated with e-cig use frequency, dependence scores, prior quit attempts, quitting confidence, desire to quit and quitting intentions. Among never users, DB scores were significantly associated with intentions to try an e-cig. The newly developed 20-item NVDB scale may inform both prevention and treatment and be used in both research and applied settings.

Perceived price complexity of dynamic energy tariffs: An investigation of antecedents and consequences

Subjects: Dynamic tariffs

description: Dynamic tariffs have the potential to contribute to a successful shift from conventional to renewable energies, but tapping this potential in Europe ultimately depends on residential consumers selecting them. This study proposes and finds that consumer reactions to dynamic tariffs depend on the level of perceived price complexity that represents the cognitive effort consumers must engage in to compute the overall bill amount. An online experiment conducted with a representative sample of 664 German residential energy consumers examines how salient characteristics of dynamic tariffs contribute to perceived price complexity. Subsequently, a structural equation model (SEM) reveals that the depth of information processing is central to understand how price complexity relates to consumers’ behavioral intentions. The results suggest that it will be challenging to convince European consumers to select complex dynamic tariffs under the current legal framework. Policymakers will need to find ways to make these tariffs more attractive.

Schweizer Holzbaukultur: Tradition, Moderne, Zukunft
Creators: name: Sauter, Marion
Year: 2023

description: Der Holzbau hat in der Schweiz eine lange, regional differenzierte Tradition. Der aus der voralpinen Architektur abgeleitete Schweizer Holzstil resp. das Chalet sorgten seit dem ausgehenden 19. Jahrhundert für ein Holzbau-Klischee, das den Tourismus bediente und bis heute die scheinbar beste Lösung für die Weiterentwicklung des ländlichen Raums darstellt. Dieser Prozess vollzog sich unter dem Radar der modernen, internationalen Architektur. Der sukzessive Einsatz von Eisen und Beton seit dem ausgehenden 19. Jahrhundert hatte auch in der Schweiz zu einer Akademisierung der Ingenieurwissenschaften geführt: 1856 wurde Gottfried Semper (1803–1879) an die ETH Zürich berufen und eine Bauschule gegründet, die sich mit Ingenieuren wie Emil Mörsch (1872–1950) zu einem Zentrum des Bauens mit Stahlbeton entwickelte. Zur Etablierung dieser neuen Materialien, die für den Bau der Infrastruktur und hier in erster Linie des Eisenbahnnetzes eine wesentliche Rolle spielten, wurde 1880 eine Materialprüfungsanstalt eingerichtet. Die Folge: Das Handwerk Holzbau geriet ins Hintertreffen. Die vorherrschende wie populäre Chaletarchitektur galt in Fachkreisen bald schon als überholt, obwohl auch Stararchitekten wie etwa Karl Friedrich Schinkel (1781–1841) «Schweizerhäuschen» errichtet hatten und vorfabrizierte Bauten im Schweizer Holzstil aus sezialisierten Fabriken international geordert wurden.

description: There is growing interest in the promotion of health-enhancing physical activity (HEPA) among public and private institutions in different sectors and on all levels. In view of this development there is a need for evidence-based communication material for partners to be used in advocacy and for guidance in interventions. A first base document “Health-Enhancing Physical Activity” was introduced in 1999 following the example of the Dutch manifesto. In 2006, the document was thouroghly revised in coordination with the development of a comparable European document. Its five parts are: health effects and recommendations, physical activity behaviour, economic estimates, determinants and interventions to increase physical activity. The development of the base document “Muscle-Powered Mobility” was part of a work package of Switzerland’s National Sports Policy. Specific reviews were carried out, combining international and national experiences. The document was structured along the model of the HEPA base document. The format of the base documents has been successful in Switzerland and has contributed to increasing knowledge and understanding in the field. In order to keep up with the state of the art, it is necessary to carry out regular reviews and revisions of the documents.

description: s wurden vier verschiedene kommerziell verfügbare Beschichtungssysteme auf Fichtenholz appliziert und anschließend nach drei unterschiedlichen Prozeduren konditioniert: Lagerung im Normalklima bei 20 °C/65 % relativer Luftfeuchte, Behandlung mit flüssigem Wasser im Bereich des Übergangs zwischen Beschichtung und Holz und Konditionierung im Dampfdruckgefälle bis zur Einstellung eines konstanten Dampfstroms. Es konnte ein deutliche Abhängigkeit der Haftfestigkeit von der Konditionierungsart festgestellt werden. Allgemein ist bei einer Auffeuchtung mit einer Reduzierung der Haftung zu rechnen. Diese feuchteabhängige Abnahme ist auf die verringerte Materialfestigkeit der Beschichtung selbst als auch auf die reduzierte Adhäsion zurückzuführen. Weiter können lokale Quellungsunterschiede bei Fichte zwischen Früh‐ und Spätholz zur Einleitung von zusätzlichen Kräften in das System führen und somit eine Scherbelastung zwischen Beschichtung und Holz verursachen. Die Zusammensetzung der Systeme sowie Schichtdicke und Schichtenanzahl haben einen Einfluss auf die Haftfestigkeit, wobei Systeme mit Schichtdicken im Bereich von 130 µm relativ niedrige Haftfestigkeitswerte zeigen. Aufgrund von Praxistests muss dieser Sachverhalt aber nicht mit der Dauerhaftigkeit eines Systems korrelieren.
description: Four different commercially available coating systems have been applied on spruce boards. After application the prepared samples have been conditioned in 3 different environments: standard climate corresponding to 20 °C/ 65 % relative humidity, application of fluid water at the transition zone between wood and coating and in a constant water vapour flow caused by a vapour gradient in the system. Regarding the conditioning procedure a clear dependency with the adhesion strength could be analysed. General increasing humidity causes a reduction of adhesion. The humidity based reduction is related to the loss of material strength of the coating and the reduced adhesion between wood and coating. Further local swelling differences between late and early wood in spruce can induce new forces in the system which creates a shear load in the transition zone wood and coating. The composition of the systems as well as thickness and the number of layers influence the adhesion strength too. Systems with thicknesses of about 130 µm seem to be less strength than thinner ones. But based on practical tests the adhesion strength does not always correspond to the performance and durability of the system.

The role of food-drug-cytochrome P450 interactions in breast cancer
Creators: name: Relats, Claudia

Year: 2018

description: Cytochrome P450 enzymes use a variety of molecules as substrates in enzymatic reactions, mostly catalysing oxidation of these substrates. Some of the enzymes activate carcinogenesis, including breast cancer development. The purpose of the present paper is to review and discuss the interactions between food products and substrates metabolized by enzymes of the cytochrome P450 in relation to the development of breast cancer. A review of recently published papers was undertaken. Electronic searches on nutrients, cytochrome P450, and breast cancer were performed on PUBMED, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and EBSCO in March 2018. Molecular and clinical studies indicate that diet-cytochrome P450 interactions affect the risk for developing breast cancer. However, these are early results which are limited and frequently not reproducible due to possible information bias in food frequency questionnaires. Based on a review of available literature, food products interacting with substrates metabolized by the enzymes of the cytochrome P450 and thus having a direct or indirect effect on breast cancer development were identified. Nutrition plays an important role in breast carcinogenesis. Eating foods which modify the activity of certain cytochrome P450 enzymes such as CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP1B1, CYP2B6, CYP3A4, CYP19A1, and CYP24A1 can contribute to prevention of breast cancer. Diet can act as an adjuvant in the treatment of this disease. Further studies are needed to elucidate the role of nutrients regularly consumed in the development of breast cancer, specifically their effect on substrates metabolized by the cytochrome P450 enzyme family and the corresponding mechanisms.

Subjects: classificationCode: 430308
subject: European history (excl. British, classical Greek and Roman)

description: This study will show that from the 1790s to the 1970s, British and American anti-capitalists used the courtroom to argue that their revolutionary politics were not a foreign criminal conspiracy, but part of a homegrown patriotic tradition. During their trials, Anarchists, Socialists, Communists, Wobblies, Black Panthers, and others on the radical Left, all offered an alternative reading of what we could term the "Anglo-American tradition." Radicals argued that founding documents like the Magna Carta and the Declaration of Independence, and figures like Thomas Paine and Abraham Lincoln, gave them a sacred "right to revolt," and they traced this right all the way back to the beginnings of Western Civilization to figures like Socrates and Jesus. When British and American radicals went on trial, they didn’t need to call on Marx or Lenin to justify their revolutionary beliefs when they could just as easily call upon an indigenous radical tradition closer to home. This study hopes to inspire a renewed conversation about this radical reading of the Anglo-American tradition, and show how reengaging with this history will be instrumental in creating a new anti-capitalist Left to carry on the struggle today.

Journalism and the 'Ghosts of Communism': A Comparative Study of News Media Roles and Practices in the Fragile Democracies of Bulgaria and Romania
Creators: name: Petkov, Mladen Kirilov
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 4701
subject: Communication and media studies

description: This study examines the fitful and uneven emergence of independent-minded journalism in Bulgaria and Romania, neighboring states where legacies of communist rule are varied but run deep, more than three decades after the fall of the Berlin Wall. The findings reported here are drawn principally from fifty in-depth interviews with contemporary reporters, producers, and commentators from broadcast, print, and online media in the two countries. The interview subjects described a variety of government-imposed and other impediments that create barriers to independent-minded journalism. Drawing on models of journalistic roles and practice, the study addresses a gap in scholarly research on the development of media systems in post-communist contexts – especially in Eastern Europe. Interview subjects in both countries warned of the continuing influence of the former nomenklatura and indicated that key examples of that continuing legacy of communist rule include barriers to public information, instances of self-censorship, and the use of kompromat to delegitimize journalists. The findings demonstrate how legacies of communist rule still influence news professionals and complicate their perceived roles. The study also signals differing degrees of the impacts of communist rule as well as how the sense of journalistic community and role models can be vital in promoting distinctive journalistic practices. Other measures of the variance of journalistic practice between Bulgaria and Romania are evident in comparative ratings of press freedom and democratization. Both countries, however, are most accurately described as fragile or "semi-consolidated," an interpretation this study confirms.

description: Femmes-Tische e Männer-Tische è un programma di formazione informale, multilingue e a bassa soglia. Il programma prevede l’organizzazione di tavole rotonde dove, alla presenza di una moderatrice o un modera1tore, si discutono temi inerenti la salute, la famiglia e l’integrazione. Il programma si basa sull’approccio tra pari e consente di raggiungere le persone con un passato migratorio che sono difficilmente raggiungibili dalle offerte tradizionali. I risultati della valutazione mostrano che le tavole rotonde portano a un aumento delle conoscenze, a una maggiore consapevolezza (del senso di responsabilità), ad atteggiamenti più positivi e a cambiamenti di abitudini tra le/i partecipanti, e quindi a un loro empowerment.

description: In democracies, civilian political leaders have ultimate control over the military while the military has the coercive power to overthrow the government. Scholars tend to assume civilians behave as a unitary actor that consistently and uniformly develops defense policy for the military to execute. Yet, in the U.S., multiple civilian institutions possess distinct roles to set policy and a collective role to control the military. What explains variation in defense policy preferences among the institutions responsible for civilian control of the military? I argue that civilian homogenization obscures three salient factors that produce unique policy preferences across the institutions responsible for civilian control: multiple-principal system, party affiliation, and military experience.To answer this question, I use a nested analysis approach. First, I conduct descriptive and inferential statistical analyses using a novel dataset. I identify and assess defense policy variations across the three civilian institutions in the U.S. with civilian control responsibility: Congress, the presidency, the and defense secretary. Holding the military constant, I find that the multiple-principal system, party affiliation, and military experience of each institution affect its respective policy formulations through the annual defense budget. Second, I conduct a series of qualitative, model-building case analyses to identify omitted variables and interactions in my regression model. I find that broader, non-defense policy agendas as well as the interactions between Congress, the president, and the defense secretary their preferences to entrust foreign policy goals and their associated funding to the military. Civilian controllers are not passive observers nor blank slates subject only to military interloping. They represent various interests, perspectives, and preferences independent of their interactions with the military institution. Consequently, my research suggests that civil-military tensions are not limited to this divide, they may also be contingent upon these three institutional factors that alter civilian policy preferences. The assertion is that civilian control is an inherent civilian responsibility. Thus, the implication is that identifying the sources of policymakers’ preferences is imperative to understand what drives civilian institutions’ defense policy development and entrusting it to the military.
Hiding in Plain Sight: How Egyptian Nonprofit Organizations Adapt to Shrinking Civic Space

description: In a restrictive civic environment like Egypt, where the state places significant constraints on civil society operations, development non-profit organizations (NPOs) struggle to pursue their objectives without facing government coercion. Placing restrictions on NPOs’ access to foreign aid is one way in which governments exert control over these organizations. As such, many NPOs, in Egypt and elsewhere, have pursued alternative funding strategies – such as social investments, social enterprises, and value-driven models, otherwise referred to as ‘hybrid models’ – to secure funding opportunities beyond foreign aid. While extant literature has focused on the potential these new models have for financial sustainability, I explore the following question: How does the funding model of development non-profit organizations (NPOs) influence how they navigate restrictive civic spaces? I compare the experiences of seven Egyptian development NPOs with varying funding models, yet similar sectoral scopes. I draw on 69 in-depth interviews with 60 participants that I conducted through immersive field research. I complemented these interviews with ethnographic observational methods, NPO document review, content analysis of Egyptian laws and policies that relate to civic space, a descriptive analysis of data on official development assistance to Egypt, and an analysis of a secondary dataset that included 95 interviews and 3 focus group discussions with 116 civil society actors in Egypt. In the context of Egypt, I find that hybrid NPOs experienced restrictive civic spaces differently and benefitted from reduced suspicion from government partners, flexibility from regulatory requirements imposed on traditional NGOs, and less rigid expectations from donors. These findings have important implications for how we understand NPO reactions to government restrictions on civic space and highlight that while structural conditions often constrain civic actors in restrictive settings in important ways, development NPOs find innovative strategies to navigate these challenges and thrive in conditions that are not hospitable to their growth.

Pulling the State In: Group Structures and the Politics of State-Building in Indian and Burmese Peripheries

Year: 2023

description: This dissertation examines the politics of peripheries and state-building in the geographically challenging borderlands of South and Southeast Asian highlands. Departing from prevailing theories of state-building which emphasize the center's capacity and will, I develop an endogenous theory of state-building that focuses on the conditions and dynamics within the peripheries that shape the state-building processes. I argue that group structures, whether fragmented or hegemonic, within peripheral societies are crucial in determining center-periphery dynamics and the center’s state-building response in the postcolonial period. Specifically, the group structures shape the collective action capacities of the periphery and its preference for state collaboration, which in turn constrain the center’s choice for more mediated/centralized rule and its opportunity to extend state visibility throughout the territory. To test this theory, I construct a subnational controlled comparison of two borderlands of India (Nagaland, Mizoram, 1947-89) as the primary case and Burma (Chin and Kachin, 1948-62) as the shadow case. Drawing on extensive archival and interview data collected during thirteen months of fieldwork in 2018-2020 in these remote regions, I find that existing theories of state-building often oversimplify the intricate local conditions that shape political development and the projection of state power in the previously ungoverned hinterlands and that my theory better explains empirical patterns of state-building observed in these cases.

description: AIM OF THE STUDY: Newly approved therapies with high and uncertain budget impact pose challenges to public health care systems worldwide. One recent example is chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapies for adults with large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). This study’s primary objective is to examine the expenditures of Swiss public payers before, during, and after CAR-T cell therapy in patients with LBCL aged ≥30 years. Its secondary objective is to analyse 24-month survival rates. METHODS: This retrospective observational data analysis used the administrative databases of the Swiss health insurers Concordia, CSS, Groupe Mutuel, Helsana, ÖKK, Sanitas, SWICA, Sympany, and Visana. These health insurers or groups provide mandatory health insurance to approximately 78% of Swiss residents in 2021. Using the relevant procedure codes, we identified CAR-T therapies administered between October 2018 (first approval) and June 2021 (treatment identification cut-off). Patients aged <30 years were excluded because they might be treated for pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. Expenditures were categorised as pre-infusion, peri-infusion (excluding CAR-T therapy acquisition costs), and post-infusion based on the time of service provision. Overall survival rates were estimated using the Kaplan–Meier method. RESULTS: This study identified 81 patients aged ≥30 years, with a median follow-up period for censored observations of 27 months (interquartile range: 21–31 months). The median age group was 70–74, and 60% of patients were male. Mean healthcare expenditures per patient per month amounted to CHF 8,115–22,564 pre-infusion, CHF 38,490 peri-infusion, and CHF 5,068–11,342 post-infusion. For the total peri- and post-infusion period (i.e. 1-month before infusion to 23 months after infusion), mean healthcare expenditures amounted to CHF 215,737. The 24-month overall survival rate was 48% (95% confidence interval: 38–61%). CONCLUSIONS: Healthcare expenditures after CAR-T cell infusion are relatively high compared to previous estimates of patients with LBCL in the last year of treatment. Further research is needed to understand the drivers behind these post-infusion expenditures. Especially, clinical data should be used to assess the time until disease progression. The analysis of 24-month overall survival is consistent with results from the pivotal trials. Our findings stress the importance of post-approval studies to monitor real-world expenditures and outcomes related to innovative therapies.

description: As the time between sentencing and execution in the United States has increased from years to decades, a greater need for scrutiny has developed pertaining to the isolated conditions of confinement that this subset of over 2,000 individuals is being housed under. Death-sentenced individuals (DSIs) are typically held in a state of permanent solitary confinement, of which many have agreed is akin to cruel and unusual punishment. This research is an exploratory analysis of the conditions of confinement for DSIs at year-end 2019, placed in the context of the demographics that have been closely tied with support for the death penalty. This research was conducted through a combination of surveys sent to representatives from the departments of corrections (DOCs) and DSI advocates, document review, and secondary data analysis. The data shows that, when information is available, most states continue to keep their DSIs in restrictive housing conditions. The data also shows that demographics that relate to support for the death penalty, such as political affiliation, education, and income seem to correlate with DSI states in the expected directions but other expected factors, such as race, gender, and age, do not. A key takeaway of this research is that there is a need for greater transparency in information when dealing with how individuals are housed for decades awaiting their sentences to be carried out.
When Do Citizens Change Their Minds About Democracy? Three Essays Examining Support for Democracy Among the Mass Public

description: The 2023 report from the Varieties of Democracy Institute assessed that the state of global democracy had weakened to a level not seen since 1986, and yet scholars of global public opinion continue to find robust support for democracy among the mass public. This dissertation contains three articles that seek to further understand the "demand" side of democracy by further investigating when citizens may de-prioritize democracy in favor of other goals and how they may rationalize those decisions. More specifically, the first article uses spatially located survey data from the World Values Survey (WVS) and protest data from the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data to create a "proximity to protest" variable for each survey respondent in eight countries. The findings suggest that citizens who were more proximate to violent protest activity were more likely to prioritize maintaining order and were more comfortable with strongman politics. The second uses data from the WVS and European Values Study to conduct two studies—an observational analysis of 74 countries and a with-in country design that leverages multiple survey waves from 14 countries—and shows that supporting the party in power makes citizens more likely to understand democracy in terms of obeying authority, rather than civil rights for the minority—suggesting that citizens mold their understanding of democracy to fit their partisan self-interest. The third article builds on the second and questions some findings in the existing literature. Using data from World Values Survey, European Values Study, Afrobarometer, Americasbarometer, and Latinobarometer, the article argues that following significant democratic backsliding, meaningful bumps in support for democracy are rare and prior findings were likely driven by biased samples of countries and survey questions that relied on the term "democracy." Overall, the dissertation argues that prior literature was too quick to conceptualize support for democracy as long-term value that does not change over time. Instead, scholars need to conceptualize support for democracy as a complex and layered attitude that can change in response to events in a citizen's neighborhood or a change in their political interest.
