Aug 16th 2024, 15:58

The US government justified its World War II occupation of Alaska as a defense against Japan’s invasion of the Aleutian Islands, but it equally served to advance colonial expansion in relation to the geographically and culturally diverse Indigenous communities affected. Offering important Alaska Native experiences of this history, Holly Miowak Guise draws on a wealth of oral histories and interviews with Indigenous elders to explore the multidimensional relationship between Alaska Natives and the US military during the Pacific Wa

Aug 16th 2024, 15:49

Abstract
The current study investigated changes in proximal descriptive alcohol use norms from high school to college, social integration as a predictor of stable versus shifting peer norms, and the consequences of norm profile membership for developmental outcomes. Using data (N = 9753 12th grade students; 59% female; 80% White, 7% Black, 5% Hispanic, 5% Asian/Pacific Islander, 3% other races/ethnicities) from the Monitoring the Future panel study, we identified five distinct norm profiles—three stable profiles (high, moderate-high, and low) and two shifting profiles (increasing, declining)—that had unique patterns of perceived friend alcohol use norms. Social integration distinguished norm profile membership, and we observed particular detriments to outcomes for those in the stable high peer norm profile.

(https://ifp.nyu.edu/2024/meta-analyses-systematic-reviews/eip-13592-2/) Discriminant diagnostic validity of paediatric bipolar disorder screening tests: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
Aug 16th 2024, 15:44

Abstract
Introduction
Bipolar disorders (BD) are among the most significantly impairing of childhood and adolescent psychiatric disorders. Although BD symptoms may begin in adolescence, they are frequently not diagnosed until adulthood, and accordingly BD scales could aid diagnostic assessment in paediatric populations. This review aims to synthesis the evidence for the accuracy of BD symptom index tests for discriminating BD from non-BD (other diagnoses or healthy controls) in paediatric population. Additionally, several theoretically relevant moderators of diagnostic accuracy were evaluated.
Methods
A systematic search across three databases were conducted from 1980 to 2022, augmented by grey literature database searches, citation chaining and contacting authors. Data from eligible studies were synthesized using meta-analysis. A multilevel model was fitted to account for nested effect sizes, with 31 potential moderators examined in univariate and multivariate models.
Results
Twenty-Eight studies were eligible, yielding 115 effect sizes for analysis. Meta-analytic modelling indicated BD symptom index tests have a high diagnostic accuracy (g = 1.300; 95% CI: 0.982 − 1.619; p < .001) in paediatric population. Accuracy was relative to the type of comparison group, index test content, index test informant and index test’s scale or subscale.
Conclusions
Screening tests based on mania content, caregiver report and non-healthy comparison groups have clinical utility in identifying paediatric BD. Other informant-and-content combination may not accurately identify paediatric BD. Unlike healthy controls, tests derived from studies using non-healthy comparison groups, represent BD symptom non-specificity and BD symptom overlap with other disorders, providing external validity and clinical utility.

Aug 16th 2024, 14:49

Active Learning in Higher Education, (https://journals.sagepub.com/toc/alha/25/2) Volume 25, Issue 2, Page 169-183, July 2024. Colleges and universities have implemented a broad range of initiatives to support student success. Problem solving courses and course supplements are one approach. Evaluation of these courses has shown positive outcomes in terms of improved academic performance and other benefits. A number of these studies have also reported the largest positive effects with underperforming student groups. To further explore this approach a novel general education academic success course was developed. The course integrated a comprehensive problem-solving model into lectures and assignments as the basis of an active learning instructional strategy. Students were taught the model along with relevant academic skills content. They then applied the model to a personal challenge affecting their success in school and life. Using a matched cohort design, 826 course participants were compared with a campus-wide sample matched on key variables. Generalized linear models were used to estimate between group mean differences, and a Cox proportional hazards model was used to compare time to graduation. Results showed that students who successfully completed the course achieved higher cumulative GPAs overall compared with matched peers. Highest GPAs for students who took the course as freshmen suggested a transfer of knowledge over time. Results also showed that the course significantly benefited students from historically at-risk populations in terms of higher GPAs, units earned, retention, and graduation rates. This study shows that a well designed problem solving course can help students, especially those who struggle academically, to more effectively meet the challenges of college and daily life.

Aug 16th 2024, 14:29

Abstract
Adolescence is a life stage beset by a growing desire for privacy. This study evaluated adolescents’ experiences across four types of potentially privacy-invasive behaviors (PPIVBs) and within four different types of relationships. 158 adolescents (M
age = 16.9 years, SD = 1.0; 53.5% female) reported on the frequency of the PPIVBs, perceived control over the behaviors, secret/private information threatened by the behaviors, and feelings of privacy invasion produced by the behaviors. Privacy experiences were more similar across relationships than across types of behavior. Stronger feelings of privacy invasion were reported for PPIVBs involving electronics and information, for behaviors by family members, when behaviors occurred infrequently, when adolescents perceived greater control over whether the behaviors occurred, and when behaviors threated secret/private information.

Aug 16th 2024, 14:23

Education, Citizenship and Social Justice, (https://journals.sagepub.com/toc/esja/19/2) Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 165-184, July 2024. This article focuses on civic education and the constitution of subjects within a complex landscape of peace and war making in Colombia. Using a genealogical approach to study the manufacturing of citizens, and drawing on a document analysis of policies, curricular guidelines, and teaching resources, this paper evidences an increasing attention to students’ skills, conducts, and interpersonal relations, rather than structural inequality and injustice. Through the examination of the “integral citizen,” I argue that the development of students as skillful civic subjects has become central to the aspiration of building and sustaining peace and democracy. Such citizens are described as individually embodying the virtues and skills of problem-solving, conflict-management, autonomy, and self-regulation of emotions. This research adds to our understanding of the construction of the ideal citizen in conflict-affected settings, and how education policy intersects with larger efforts for meaningful and sustained change.

(https://ifp.nyu.edu/2024/journal-article-abstracts/4459867/) Functional Near‐Infrared Spectroscopy‐Based Computer‐Aided Diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder Using Convolutional Neural Network with a New Channel Embedding Layer Considering Inter‐Hemispheric Asymmetry in Prefrontal Hemodynamic Responses
Aug 16th 2024, 12:51

Background. Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is being extensively explored as a potential primary screening tool for major depressive disorder (MDD) because of its portability, cost-effectiveness, and low susceptibility to motion artifacts. However, the fNIRS-based computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) of MDD using deep learning methods has rarely been studied. In this study, we propose a novel deep learning framework based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) for the fNIRS-based CAD of MDD with high accuracy. Materials and Methods. The fNIRS data of participants—48 patients with MDD and 68 healthy controls (HCs)—were obtained while they performed a Stroop task. The hemodynamic responses calculated from the preprocessed fNIRS data were used as inputs to the proposed CNN model with an ensemble CNN architecture, comprising three 1D depth-wise convolutional layers specifically designed to reflect interhemispheric asymmetry in hemodynamic responses between patients with MDD and HCs, which is known to be a distinct characteristic in previous MDD studies. The performance of the proposed model was evaluated using a leave-one-subject-out cross-validation strategy and compared with those of conventional machine learning and CNN models. Results. The proposed model exhibited a high accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of 84.48%, 83.33%, and 85.29%, respectively. The accuracies of conventional machine learning algorithms—shrinkage linear discriminator analysis, regularized support vector machine, EEGNet, and ShallowConvNet—were 73.28%, 74.14%, 62.93%, and 62.07%, respectively. Conclusions. In conclusion, the proposed deep learning model can differentiate between the patients with MDD and HCs more accurately than the conventional models, demonstrating its applicability in fNIRS-based CAD systems.

Aug 16th 2024, 12:51

Background. Major depressive disorder with anxiety (MDD-A) is considered as a clinical subphenotype of major depressive disorder (MDD). There continues to be debate regarding the legitimacy of differentiating between the two diagnoses and their neurobiological foundations, given that the symptoms of MDD and MDD-A overlap. However, there is still a dearth of research that delineates the dynamic alteration in the brain activity unique to anxiety in MDD with resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (R-fMRI). Methods. 30 patients with MDD, 45 patients with MDD-A, and 46 healthy controls completed R-fMRI scans. Dynamic analysis was utilized to generate many widely used measures, such as voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity, global signal correlation, regional homogeneity, amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations, and network degree centrality. Concordance between these indices was assessed with Kendall’s W coefficient for both volume and voxel-wise concordance. Finally, the differences in voxel-wise concordance among the groups were looked at, and their relationship to clinical factors was assessed. Results. Compared to the healthy control group, both MDD and MDD-A exhibited decreased dynamic R-fMRI indices in the bilateral calcarine, left postcentral gyrus, inferior parietal lobe, right lingual gyrus, and middle occipital gyrus. In comparison to the MDD group, the MDD-A group displayed a reduction in voxel-wise concordance in the left medial superior frontal gyrus. Furthermore, it was observed that the MDD and MDD-A groups both exhibited a negative correlation between anxiety levels and voxel-wise concordance in the left medial superior frontal gyrus. Conclusions. The aberrant voxel-wise concordance of the left medial superior frontal gyrus may differentiate the neurobiological aspects of MDD with anxiety symptom from MDD. These findings indicate the underlying mechanisms implicated in MDD with anxiety symptom while highlighting the significance of accounting for heterogeneity in depression research.

Aug 16th 2024, 12:28

Abstract
Background and Objectives
History of nonfatal overdose (NFO) is common among people who use opioids, but little is known about opioid agonist treatment (OAT) outcomes for this high-risk subpopulation. The objective of this study was to investigate the relative effectiveness of buprenorphine/naloxone and methadone on retention and suppression of opioid use among individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD) and history of NFO.
Methods
Secondary analysis of a pan-Canadian pragmatic trial comparing flexible take-home buprenorphine/naloxone and supervised methadone for people with OUD and history of NFO. Logistic regression was used to examine the impact of OAT on retention in the assigned or in any OAT at 24 weeks and analysis of covariance was used to examine the mean difference in opioid use between treatment arms.
Results
Of the 272 randomized participants, 155 (57%) reported at least one NFO at baseline. Retention rates in the assigned treatment were 17.7% in the buprenorphine/naloxone group and 18.4% in the methadone group (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 0.54, 95% CI: 0.17–1.54). Rates of retention in any OAT were 28% and 20% in the buprenorphine/naloxone and methadone arms, respectively (AOR = 1.55, 95% CI: 0.65–3.78). There was an 11.9% adjusted mean difference in opioid-free urine drug tests, favoring the buprenorphine/naloxone arm (95% CI: 3.5–20.3; p = .0057).
Conclusions and Scientific Significance
Among adults with OUD and a history of overdose, overall retention rates were low but improved when retention in any treatment was considered. These findings highlight the importance of flexibility and patient-centered care to improve retention and other treatment outcomes in this population.

Aug 16th 2024, 11:51

Abstract
Harsha Walia is the winner of the 2022 Conrad M. Arensberg Award given by the Society for the Anthropology of Work for outstanding contributions to the anthropology of work from inside the discipline and beyond. Walia is a scholar, activist, and organizer committed to migrant justice and border abolition. She is also author of Border and Rule: Global Migration, Capitalism, and the Rise of Racist Nationalism (Fernwood Press 2021), Undoing Border Imperialism (AK Press 2013), as well as numerous journal articles. Walia’s analysis and her organizing with No One Is Illegal and other activist communities lay bare why border imperialism continues to feed into worker exploitation and why border abolition is imperative for migrant worker justice. This roundtable discussion is the culmination of collective thinking by anthropologists about how Walia’s work has influenced their own, including their research, writing, and advocacy with their interlocutors who live and work across borders.

Aug 16th 2024, 11:39

Objective. Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) is increasingly used to monitor depressive symptoms in clinical trials, but little is known about the comparability of its outcomes to those of clinical interviews and questionnaires. In our study, we administered EMA and questionnaires to measure change in depressive symptoms and repetitive negative thinking (RNT) in a clinical trial and investigated (a) the size of intervention effects associated with both techniques and (b) their validity in predicting clinical interview outcomes (i.e., global functioning). Materials and Methods. Seventy-one depressed patients were randomly assigned to one of three psychological interventions. The EMA comprised a concise item set (four items per scale) and was administered three times per day during a 7-week intervention period. Conversely, questionnaires were assessed weekly (WQA), encompassing their full sets of items of depressive symptoms and RNT. Results. While EMA excelled in detecting significant intervention effects, WQA demonstrated greater strength in predicting clinician ratings of global functioning. Additionally, we observed significant differences in time effects (slopes) between the two techniques. WQA scores decreased steeper over time and were more extreme, e.g., higher at baseline and lower postintervention, than EMA scores. Conclusions. Although clinical interviews, questionnaires, and EMA outcomes are related, they assess changes in depression differently. EMA may be more sensitive to intervention effects, but all three methods harbor potential bias, raising validity and reliability questions. Therefore, to enhance the validity and reliability of clinical trial assessments, we emphasize the importance of EMA approaches that combine subjective self-reports with objectively measured behavioral markers. This trial is registered with osf.io/9fuhn.

Aug 16th 2024, 10:34

Families in Society, Ahead of Print. Previous research points to the importance of parenting self-efficacy in facilitating father engagement, thereby promoting optimal developmental outcomes in children. Nonresident fathers’ engagement differs from resident fathers, resulting in a need for a novel measure of paternal self-efficacy (PSE). This article presents two studies: Study 1—the development of a measure of nonresident PSE and Study 2—the validation of this measure with low-income, nonresident fathers. Nine focus groups were conducted at nine urban responsible fatherhood programs in low-income, high-poverty areas in the northeastern United States (n = 71), yielding seven items for PSE. The Father Appraisal Inventory (FAI) was disseminated through a survey to nonresident fathers (n = 542) in responsible father programs to assess convergent and predictive validity. Analyses demonstrated convergence with father satisfaction and predicted quantity and quality of father involvement and co-parenting.

Aug 16th 2024, 08:52

Abstract
Maltreatment during childhood has many long-lasting effects. Victims often become parents who experience parenting difficulties, therefore contributing to the intergenerational cycle of maltreatment. This paper highlights the consequences of severe trauma during childhood on two processes critical for a sensitive response, namely the recognition of and the initial reaction to emotional signals. We argue that most interventions focus on the observed parental response to children’s behaviors or on parental interpretation of children’s signals, that is, the attribution of meaning or intent to the signal. Interventions should better integrate research indicating that a history of childhood maltreatment could impair the capacity to correctly identify the emotion and the immediate reaction to these signals. By failing to acknowledge these long-lasting consequences of childhood maltreatment, scholars and practitioners might never achieve true success in intervening with families in the hope of breaking the intergenerational cycle of maltreatment.

Aug 16th 2024, 08:51

Abstract
What are the changes in social life that paid care generates, in a context where kin have been expected to provide elder care? This question opens up key questions about the exploitation of women, who often provide domestic labor and care to their kin without pay; and about the spread of capitalism, in which goods and services required for human survival are exchanged through markets. This paper explores how paid elder care in Ghana is made possible practically and ideologically by the social blurring of the difference between nonkin paid care and kin unpaid care: one, by mistrust between kin that make the exchange of services and labor shorter term and more balanced; and two, by treating paid care between neighbors as a gift. Ultimately, I argue, the commodification of elder care is not a straightforward marker of the expansion of global capitalism, but it has led to increased class differences and tensions between women of different economic means.

Aug 16th 2024, 07:48

Educational and Psychological Measurement, (https://journals.sagepub.com/toc/epma/84/4) Volume 84, Issue 4, Page 637-659, August 2024. The relative advantages and disadvantages of sum scores and estimated factor scores are issues of concern for substantive research in psychology. Recently, while championing estimated factor scores over sum scores, McNeish offered a trenchant rejoinder to an article by Widaman and Revelle, which had critiqued an earlier paper by McNeish and Wolf. In the recent contribution, McNeish misrepresented a number of claims by Widaman and Revelle, rendering moot his criticisms of Widaman and Revelle. Notably, McNeish chose to avoid confronting a key strength of sum scores stressed by Widaman and Revelle—the greater comparability of results across studies if sum scores are used. Instead, McNeish pivoted to present a host of simulation studies to identify relative strengths of estimated factor scores. Here, we review our prior claims and, in the process, deflect purported criticisms by McNeish. We discuss briefly issues related to simulated data and empirical data that provide evidence of strengths of each type of score. In doing so, we identified a second strength of sum scores: superior cross-validation of results across independent samples of empirical data, at least for samples of moderate size. We close with consideration of four general issues concerning sum scores and estimated factor scores that highlight the contrasts between positions offered by McNeish and by us, issues of importance when pursuing applied research in our field.

Aug 16th 2024, 06:38

Journal of European Social Policy, Ahead of Print. Country comparisons, often suffering from unobserved heterogeneity and obscuring subnational variation, dominate the social policy literature. However, the subnational level is better suited to reduce the omitted variable bias. This article distinguishes between social consumption and social investment policies and investigates their determinants at the subnational level. Following the literature across countries, we test the role of incumbent parties’ ideology, but for within-country variation in social policy. Austria is a case in point because states have discretion in social policy (e.g., regarding public childcare and social assistance). Panel regressions covering all nine states in Austria for the years 1991 to 2019 reveal that the cabinet share of Social-Democrats increases social investment spending, while the Christian-Democratic party decreases it, and the populist radical right party reduces expenses for social consumption.
