From information exposure to legal consciousness: The chain mediating role of political trust and social equality in Chinese college students by Liu Peng, Min Tian, Wan Li

“…To address these gaps, we propose a chain mediation model examining relationships between information exposure, legal consciousness, political trust, and social equality, and their mediating mechanisms. Using structural equation modeling (SEM), with 213 Chinese college students, we find that information exposure does not enhance legal consciousness and exerts a direct negative effect on it. …”

Degeneration of Character, Aesthetics of Origin, and Augmented Absence in Posthuman Cinema by Savaş Keskin

“…Computers, which have evolved from merely assisting humans to becoming ‘social performers,’ are recontextualized in this article as ‘cinematic performers’ thanks to their artificial intelligence, and are evaluated solely based on their structural presence. The concept of the performer is used as a conceptual measure against the inequality effect of the masculine and gendered use of the term ‘actor’ in cinema. …”

Comorbidity in patients with lobular panniculitis-lipodermatosclerosis by O. N. Egorova, B. S. Belov, E. G. Sazhina

“…The onset of LDS falls on the age of 50–60 years, when many patients already have comorbid pathology requiring complex therapy, which affects the course, the choice of treatment and prognosis of LDS, as well as the quality of life.Objective: to study the structure and frequency of comorbid conditions in patients with LDS.Patients and methods. 53 patients (3 men and 50 women), 18–80 years old, with a verified diagnosis of LDS were included, all of them had an average follow up of 10 years (they were observed in the V.A. …”

Modeling the Meaning of Individual Words Using Cultural Cartography and Keystroke Dynamics by Tatiana A. Litvinova, Olga V. Dekhnich

“…., “cultural cartography using word embeddings”) and a new list of features developed by the authors to describe individual differences in the meaning of a word based on the data from neurobiology about the meaning structure of word. A set of data analysis methods (linear mixed models, principal components analysis, hierarchical clustering on principal components) implemented in R packages is used to reveal individual differences in the word meaning in terms of the proposed list of features and association of the revealed differences with participants’ characteristics. …”

The impact of deprivation and neighbourhood food environments on home food environments, parental feeding practices, child eating behaviours, food preferences and BMI: The Family F... by Andrea D Smith, Alice Kininmonth, Kristiane Tommerup, David Boniface, Chiara Gericke, Tiffany Denning, Carolyn Summerbell, Christina Vogel, Clare Llewellyn

“…Greater deprivation was also associated with a more obesogenic home food environment (β = -0.19, p < 0.001) and lower meal structure (β = 0.17, p < 0.001). Exposure to less healthy neighbourhood food environments around and between home and school were associated with a more obesogenic home food environment (β = -0.07, p < 0.01), but no significant associations were found with feeding practices, child eating behaviours or child BMI. …”
