The Popular Movement in Algeria (Causes and Consequences)

Algeria has witnessed an important popular movement since the beginning of2019 in response to the announcement of former Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika his candidacy for a fifth term. Due to the health condition that the president suffers from after suffering a stroke, the movement has been affected by several factors, including political, which included a popular demand for free and fair elections and change the system of government in the country. Also, many Algerian political elites felt that power in the country has become the monopoly of Abdelaziz Bouteflika, in addition to the economic reasons that revolved around the deepening state of administrative and financial corruption, high unemployment rates and economic decline. Also, the social and psychological reasons focused on the absence of civil rights and freedoms, in addition to the psychological collapse and social repression and the alienation of the Algerian citizen as a result of the repressive policies of the ruling regime. It did not provide citizens with the simplest requirements for a decent living, and thus this movement resulted in the emergence of several results, including the resignation of Abdelaziz Bouteflika, changes in power and the formation of a National rescue body. This body runs the affairs of the country until new elections are held to form a government to lead the country in the next stage.

Exploring lived experiences in oral cavity cancer: An Asia-Pacific perspective on psychosocial challenges and opportunities for enhanced patient-centric care.

12097 Background: Locally advanced oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (LA OC SCC) is profoundly emotionally taxing, characterized by a dual burden of undergoing treatment and adapting to post-treatment changes. The research explores lived experiences including psychosocial aspects, to identify approaches to establish a resilient supportive system for patients to improve coping and reduce anxiety and distress. Methods: A total of115in-depth interviews were conducted across Australia, Hong Kong, South Korea, Taiwan and Vietnam. Informants were LA OC SCC patients who underwent surgery and adjuvant chemoradiotherapy, their caregivers, multidisciplinary team (surgeons and clinical, radiation and medical oncologists) and supportive care HCPs (nursing, case managers/care coordinators, psychologists, speech therapists, dietitians, and dentists). Interview guide design and thematic analysis were guided by the Psycho-Onco Emotional Anxiety (POEM) framework and the Capability, Opportunity, Motivation, Behaviour (COM-B) model. Results: The POEM framework illuminated patients’ lived cancer experiences, emotions and psychological thoughts and processes influenced by beliefs of the world, others and self which impact coping responses that maintain or drive anxiety. Key themes emerged: physical and functional impairments result in negative psychosocial impact; constraints hinder person-centered care communications with HCPs and interpersonal dynamics with significant others; and personal and interpersonal experiences result in negative coping, exacerbated by inadequate health services and social support. Multimodal therapeutic interventions for LA OC SCC lead to physical and functional impairments implicating psychosocial and psychosexual quality of life. LA OC SCC stigma, societal norms and highly socially constrained patients grapple with distress from inadequate psychosocial support. Furthermore, HCPs may have preconceptions of LA OC SCC patients hindering patient-centered approaches to care and management. In certain regions, insufficient hospital support systems exacerbate the toll of strained interpersonal relationships and caregiver burden on physical, psychological and emotional well-being. Consequently, treatment adherence, self-care and survivorship experiences of patients and caregivers are affected. Conclusions: Utilizing the POEM framework, the study delved into nuanced patient and caregiver-narrated experiences in 5 Asia-Pacific countries/territories with distinctive supportive care systems. Findings underscore the imperative of improving patient-centric care through enhanced psychosocial support for patients and caregivers, identifying specific areas where health services can be better equipped to support holistic patient health delivery, especially psychosocial health.

Конституционное право и политический реализм: негативная теория свободы слова

Classic positive theories of freedom of speech explain enhanced constitutional defense of speech in terms of fundamental values served by expression (pursuit of truth, democratic governance or personal autonomy). Negative approach, which is the subject of this article, focuses not on the high social value of speech, but on the unique risks of its suppression. The dangers of repressive censorship mainly stem from personal interests of office-holders (legislators as well as law-enforcement officers) or from intolerance. Psychological reasons and the architecture of censorial decision-making turn speech into an especially fragile object of regulation. The idea underlying the constitutional status of freedom of speech is the distrust of government decision-making in speech regulation. Judicial review should pay close attention to the design of abridging laws and justifications provided for them. These laws should be worded clearly and should not allow for selective viewpoint censorship. The simplicity of negative approach and its political realism make it the most plausible theory for interpreting constitutional article on freedom of speech (expression).

A Review on the Cause of Black Friday Consumerism

Black Friday is a typical date for an explosion in the number of irrational and excessive consumer behaviours. An in-depth study of Black Friday helps researchers understand the influences on overconsumption and the related consumption strategies of companies. This paper explores the reasons that led to the phenomenon of Black Friday consumerism. The historical background and cultural influences of Black Friday are examined to tell the story of how it became an important event on the consumer calendar. The article also delves into the psychological reasons that drive individual consumers to participate in Black Friday, including the desire for bargains and social comparisons. In addition, the economic impact of Black Friday on society as a whole is discussed, as well as the strategies used by retailers to drive sales. The role of scientific and technological advances in shaping the Black Friday experience is also explored. By analysing these different aspects, the article provides a comprehensive understanding of the causes and effects of Black Friday consumerism.

Narrative triggers of information sensitivity

This research explores the factors contributing to information sensitivity in debt markets, focusing on the potential influences of uncertainty, economic performance, and journalist-dependent language. Building upon the foundational work of Dang et al. (Ignorance, debt and financial crises. Yale University Unpublished Working Paper, 2018), we analyze the mechanisms underlying the transition from information-insensitive to information-sensitive states—a shift with implications for potential financial crises. Leveraging machine learning techniques and daily data on variables such as default probability, information acquisition, and newspaper articles, we discern specific narrative triggers embedded within the news. Our analysis underscores the pivotal role of economic states and journalist language in inducing information sensitivity—a phenomenon intricately tied to different psychological thinking processes.

Are gluten-free products healthy for non-celiac consumers? How the perception of well-being moderates gluten-free addiction

Gluten-free products are showing an acceleration in assortment and sales growth. Nevertheless, these data should be read considering that a minimal share of the population is allergic or intolerant to gluten compared to the market share of gluten-free products. This study aims to understand why non-gluten-sensitive consumers purchase and consume gluten-free products. Through a survey, we seek to explore how the perception of well-being can contribute to the desire for gluten-free products among these consumers, potentially leading to an addiction to such products. A sample of 182 Italian consumers with no disease, such as Celiac Disease, Gluten Sensitivity, or Dermatitis Herpetiformis, was surveyed online. The empirical results of the Structural Equation Model highlight that the purchase of gluten-free products is based solely on hedonistic-emotional psychological motivations. Furthermore, care for well-being positively moderates the intention-addiction relationship leading healthy consumers to be addicted to gluten-free products. Medical studies have highlighted problems with the consumption of gluten-free products by healthy individuals. However, results evidence a growing trend among the population to consume gluten-free products for psychological and well-being reasons. These findings sparked a debate on the topic and raised important considerations for operators and policymakers.

The effect of turmeric extract (Curcuma longa) on IL-6 expression

Background: Breast cancer in Indonesia is reported to have reached 68,858 out of 396,914 new cases of cancer, with an incidence rate of 16.6% based on Globocan 2020 data. Complementary therapies are much sought after for psychological and economic reasons and have minimal side effects. Curcumin has anti-carcinogenic properties. IL-6 plays an important role in the growth and metastasis of breast cancer cells, renewal of breast cancer stem cells, and drug resistance in breast cancer stem cells. Methods: A randomized controlled trial with post-test only group design using artificial female Balb/c strain rats (Mus Musculus) with DMBA-induced mammary adenocarcinoma nodules were reported, rats were divided into four groups randomly, namely, Control (K), Treatment 1: turmeric extract dose 100mg/KgBW (P1), Treatment 2: turmeric extract dose 150mg/KgBW (P2), Treatment 3: turmeric extract dose 200mg/KgBW (P3). Variables under study were IL-6 expression. One Way Anova test, followed by the Post-hoc Test, was used to test the difference among and between groups. Results: The mean value of IL-6 expression in groups K (53,59 ± 8,37), P1 (50,66 ± 9,59), P2 (66,93 ± 9,64), P3 (64,58 ± 5,97). The Post-Hoc test showed significant differences in IL-6 expression from group K against P2 (p=0.038), group P1 against P2 (p=0.015), and P3 (p=0.040). Conclusion: Turmeric extract (Curcuma longa) had an effect on IL-6 expression in the control group and the treatment group.

Snacking motivations and behaviour in Australian adults: The role of personality traits

Snacking, namely, consuming food and beverages in-between main meals, especially snacks with a high fat, salt and/or sugar content, is a major contributor to excessive energy intake and long-term weight gain(1). There are many potential drivers of snacking behaviours, including physiological (e.g., hunger) as well as social, psychological, and emotional reasons(2). Individual differences, such as personality traits, have been linked to unhealthy snacking. Nevertheless, it is important to examine the potential explanatory pathways, such as motivations for snacking and habit strength, that may explain this relationship between personality and snacking. This cross-sectional study investigated the associations between personality traits, habit strength, motivations for snacking, and snacking behaviour, including choice and consumption. Participants were n = 230 Australian adults (female: n = 164; 71.3%) aged 18-77 years old (M = 34 years, SD = 13.4) who completed an online survey. The survey included assessments of personality traits (The Big Five Inventory 2), habit strength (the Self-Report Habit Index), motivations for snacking (The Eating Motivation Survey), momentary snack food choice (Snack Preference Task), and habitual snack food consumption (Snack Frequency Questionnaire). Overall, the most frequently selected motivations for snacking were ‘liking’, ‘convenience’, and ‘habit’. Correlation analyses were conducted to examine the relationship between motivations for snacking and snacking behaviour. We found that health motivation for snacking was negatively correlated with momentary choice (r = -.042, p <.01) and habitual consumption (r = -.033, p <.01) of unhealthy snack foods and beverages. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses were used to examine whether habit strength and the Big Five personality traits predicted both motivations for snacking and snacking behaviours after controlling for demographic variables. For health motivations for snacking, habit strength (beta = −0.15, p = .025), openness (beta = 0.50, p = .003, and conscientiousness (beta = 0.58, p = .001) were significant predictors. For momentary choice of unhealthy snacks, health motivation (beta = −4.35, p = .004), pleasure (beta = 3.53, p = .029), and visual appeal (beta = 5.29, p <.001) were significant predictors. For habitual consumption of unhealthy snacks, health motivation (beta = −5.39, p = .001), habit strength (beta = 2.89, p = .045) and neuroticism (beta = 5.16, p = .045) were significant predictors. These findings indicate that health motivation for snacking predicts both momentary snack preference and habitual snack food consumption. Moreover, personality traits may be linked with habitual unhealthy snacking behaviour via their association with specific motivations for snacking. Overall, these findings suggest that health promotion messages focusing on health motivation may be important for increasing healthier momentary and habitual snack choices to improve dietary intake and support weight management.

Psychological Counseling Model Proposal for Reducing Violence in Emergency Services

Violence is destructive and abrasive for patients and their relatives as well as for healthcare workers. Violence, which leads to various emotional and physical injuries, job dissatisfaction, and absenteeism, causes fatal mistakes and has a negative impact on service quality. On the other hand, the patient and his relatives may be anxious, nervous, sensitive or inclined to show anger behavior due to the situation they are in. These summarized reasons can bring the healthcare worker and patient, who should be on the same side, and their relatives face to face. However, healthcare professionals and patients share a common goal and have to act together. Accordingly, it is thought that when the causes of violence are eliminated for both groups, violence will decrease to a large extent. In this context, efforts should be made to identify and eliminate the psychological and social reasons that lead people to act aggressively in order to prevent violence in the emergency room. The proposed model aims to build a bridge of compassion between healthcare workers and patients and their relatives, while also providing psychological support to healthcare workers and patients and their relatives, training healthcare workers in communication, compassion, empathy and emotion management, and teaching stress-reducing techniques to prevent violence in emergency services. Various search engines were used in the literature search. The search terms were determined as "violence in an emergency", "causes of violence", "prevention of violence" and "violence in health", but studies involving environmental risk management and security measures were excluded.

Neural Reasoning about Agents’ Goals, Preferences, and Actions

We propose the Intuitive Reasoning Network (IRENE) - a novel neural model for intuitive psychological reasoning about agents' goals, preferences, and actions that can generalise previous experiences to new situations. IRENE combines a graph neural network for learning agent and world state representations with a transformer to encode the task context. When evaluated on the challenging Baby Intuitions Benchmark, IRENE achieves new state-of-the-art performance on three out of its five tasks - with up to 48.9% improvement. In contrast to existing methods, IRENE is able to bind preferences to specific agents, to better distinguish between rational and irrational agents, and to better understand the role of blocking obstacles. We also investigate, for the first time, the influence of the training tasks on test performance. Our analyses demonstrate the effectiveness of IRENE in combining prior knowledge gained during training for unseen evaluation tasks.

Motivation of the patient to perform aesthetic rhinosurgical intervention, topical issues in identifying the true reasons: A review

From time immemorial, people have sought to improve their body and appearance by resorting to various medical, non-drug and surgical interventions. The most advanced direction in this context has been and remains facial cosmetic surgery, which, being a kind of standard that allows you to achieve perfection, encourages people to change their appearance in an operative way, which is not always justified. The most common and sought after desire of people when visiting a plastic surgeon is to change the shape of the nose. The main motive for rhinoplasty is low self-esteem, dissatisfaction with the shape and size of the nose, which, in their opinion, prevents them from achieving success in their personal lives, building a career, etc. As a rule, most of these people are people of ethnic groups who seek to “Europeanize” their nose and face according to modern aesthetic canons, people with dysmorphophobia, young girls and boys. Often there are cases when patients, having not received the desired result, make claims to surgeons and embark on litigation. Therefore, when planning rhinoplasty, it is necessary to find out several important questions: the main psychological reasons that motivated rhinoplasty; whether the patient has mental deviations what are the external influences and internal deviations. Patients presenting with the following features are at high risk and should give surgeons reason to reconsider their rhinoplasty.

A theory of emotion based on a universal model

The complexity of emotions has thus far limited our understanding of them. To obtain a clear understanding of the nature of emotion, this paper proposes a novel emotion theory and establishes a universal model of the conscious world in the human brain, the substanguage and interaction model (SIM). Based on an analysis of the possibilities of the interaction process in the SIM, two basic emotions that are indecomposable factors within all emotions—hope and fear—are identified. A questionnaire survey reveals that this basic emotion exhibits high acceptability. Based on emotion theory, this paper reasonably explains the phenomena of facial attraction and infantile facial preference and discusses the psychological reasons for phonocentrism, the phenomenon of preferring the spoken word over the written word. In addition, this paper explores the possibility of artificial intelligence possessing self-emotions. Emotions are relevant to many areas of human knowledge, as well as to everyone’s daily lives, and the simple, clear way to understand emotions provided in this paper may be instructive for everyone.

(152) Efficiency Improvement Veno-Occlusive Surgeries for Treatment of Venous Leak with Autologous Stem Cell, VEGF and PRP

Abstract Introduction The venous leakage is one of the most often reason of erectile dysfunction (ED) in young and middle age men. The main reason of venous leakage or veno-occlusive Erectile Dysfunction (VOED) is the insufficiency venous obstruction under tunica albuginea of corpora cavernosa. Accordingly all types of veno-occlusive operations have particular and short term effect up to renovation of venous leakage in half year. Conservative treatment of VOED with PDE-5 has a low or mild effectiveness. Evermore young patients deny penile prosthesis implantation for psychological reason. Objective We want to stimulate growth of endothelial valves under tunica albuginea with injections autological mesenchymal stem cells (ASC) and autological VEGF (Vascular endothelial growth factor) and combine it with veno-occlusive surgeries. Methods 2012–2022 we treated 178 patients with VOED. The average patient age is 36.5 +4.1 years. Patients with prostatitis or depression/anxiety were excluded from the investigation or treated previously. We embolizated deep dorsal and Santorini plexus veins for patients with distal form of VOED–47 patients -Group 1. We ligated deep dorsal and penile veins for proximal form of VOED – 68 patients – Group 2. And we made both methods together for 65 patients –Group 3 with combination of proximal and distal leak. Patients with only surgical methods created subgroup A – 105 men. For improving of veno-occlusive mechanism for 73 patients (subgroup B) we injected to each corpus cavernosa 1 mln of autological stem cells 6 times (2 times before, during surgery and 3 times after surgery) each month and we performed 15 microinjections of VEGF each 10 days. Then we compared short (2 months) and long term (10 months) results. Results The efficacy of surgical treatment according to subjective data (questionnaires on IIEF-5) in 2 months was almost equal (16.7+3.1 and 16.9+3.0), but in 10 months significantly higher in SubGroup B(14.3+3.2 and 19.6+3.4). According to Doppler Penile Ultrasound in 10 months adding microinjections ASC and VEGF to surgery significantly improves Erectile function (absence of venous leakage) 56.4% - subgroup A and 87.4% - subgroup B. Only 6.8% patients subgroup B (opposite to 35.9% subgroup A) have to take PDE-5 inhibitors for maintain erectile function. Conclusions Half year injections of ASC and VEGF improve of veno-occlusive mechanism and increases effectiveness and long term result of veno-occlusive operations for treatment of VOED. Combine occlusive method (embolisation and ligation of veins) has the highest effectiveness and should be used in different types of leakage. Disclosure No.

Evaluation of Student Applications Made for Psychological Reasons to a University Hospital Health Center

Objective: With this study, it was aimed to determine the reasons and results of young adults who apply with psychological problems in a primary care institution of a university and to evaluate the relationship between sociodemographic characteristics. Method: The descriptive and retrospective study was conducted in XXXXX University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Family Medicine and Sıhhiye Health Center. All students between the ages of 18-35, who were registered in the specified date range in our study, and who came to a psychologist interview at least 3 times at regular intervals were evaluated. In our study, the data of the patients were collected by examining the data forms recorded by the psychologist. The personal data of the patient was not used in the data form. Results: In the study, 276 applications were evaluated retrospectively. It was observed that 83.3% of the applicants were women, and the mean age was 20.99±2.176. When evaluated in terms of application reasons; it was determined that 35.5% of them applied due to anxiety, stress, obsessive-compulsive disorder [OCD] problems, 35.9% of them had communication problems and psychosocial problems. For the treatment of 65.2%, it was decided to follow up with a psychologist [who did not require referral to a psychiatrist]. When the relationship between the outcome of the applications and the reasons for the application is evaluated; 54.8% of mood problems were referred to a psychiatrist and were followed up by a psychologist after the medication was started; it was determined that 51.1% of the patients who applied with communication and psychosocial problems were followed up by a psychologist without the need for referral to a psychiatrist. Conclusion: As a result, university students have high levels of anxiety, stress, OCD problems, communication problems, and psychosocial problems; it was found that women, those living in dormitories and those with a diagnosis of psychiatric illness applied more frequently. Students should be encouraged to benefit from the health centers, which are created for them, where primary care preventive health care is at the forefront.

Fenomena Childfree Berdasarkan Perspektif Hukum Islam Progresif, Pancasila dan Hak Asasi Manusia (HAM)

The childfree phenomenon in normative legal studies is considered an aberration. Islamic law scholars refer to various considerations, ranging from being contrary to nature, not being in accordance with national culture and threatening human civilization. However, in certain cases childfree becomes an alternative because there is an element of unintentional doing it. Call it for health, psychological and other reasons. Strict restrictions on childfree practices when it is done intentionally and views having children as a burden. This research uses qualitative methods and is a library research type. Researchers use a normative legal approach in analyzing data. The analysis technique used is descriptive analytic. Data is taken from various literature such as books, journals, scientific works, official websites and related sources according to the research theme. The results of the research show that according to the progressive Islamic and Pancasila views, childfree is possible for health and psychological reasons. Apart from that, childfree is a person's private choice that cannot be interfered with by other people.

A Comparative Legal Study: Euthanasia for Psychological Reasons

This research conducts a comprehensive examination of euthanasia within the legal frameworks of Indonesia and the Netherlands, aiming to elucidate the criminal liability associated with this act. Employing a normative legal research approach, the study analyzes written legal materials, including regulations, legislation, books, journals, and related legal sources, to facilitate a cross-jurisdictional comparison. The findings reveal distinctive legal perspectives in the two countries. In the Netherlands, euthanasia was initially deemed a criminal offense under penal code sections 293 and 294. However, the landscape evolved with the enactment of the Dutch Law on Termination of Life on Request and Assisted Suicide in 2001. This legislation, effective from April 1, 2002, decriminalized euthanasia under specific conditions. Conversely, in Indonesia, euthanasia, particularly active euthanasia, lacks explicit recognition in positive law. Despite the absence of clear regulations, it is generally treated as a form of murder due to its implication in ending a person's life. Examining criminal liability in Indonesia, the study identifies article 344 of the Criminal Code as the closest provision related to euthanasia. However, detailed regulations are lacking. Additionally, the medical code of ethics plays a role in shaping responsibility. Doctors violating article 7d of the medical code of ethics, which mandates the immediate protection of human life, particularly patients, may face consequences. In conclusion, this research underscores the contrasting legal stances on euthanasia in Indonesia and the Netherlands. While the Netherlands has embraced a legalized and regulated framework, Indonesia's legal landscape remains silent on the matter. The study also highlights the need for clearer legal provisions in Indonesia and emphasizes the role of medical ethics in shaping the responsibility associated with euthanasia.

The relevance of the contribution of psychoneuroendocrinoimmunology and psychology of reasoning and decision making to nursing science: A discursive paper.

Patients' death or adverse events appear to be associated with poor healthcare decision-making. This might be due to an inability to have an adequate representation of the problem or of the connections among problem-related elements. Changing how a problem is formulated can reduce biases in clinical reasoning. The purpose of this article is to explore the possible contributions of psychoneuroendocrinoimmunology (PNEI) and psychology of reasoning and decision-making (PRDM) to support a new nursing theoretical frame. Discursive paper. This article discusses the main assumptions about nursing and nurses' ability to face patient's problems, suggesting a new approach that integrates knowledge from PNEI and PRDM. While PNEI explains the complexity of systems, highlighting the importance of systems connections in affecting health, PRDM underlines the importance of the informative context in creating a mental representation of the problem. Furthermore, PRDM suggests the need to pay attention to information that is not immediately explicit and its connections. Nursing recognizes the patient-nurse relationship as the axiom that governs care. The integration of PNEI and PRDM in nursing theoretics allows the expansion of the axiom by providing essential elements to read a new type of relationship: the relationship among information. PNEI explains the relationships between biological systems and the psyche and between the whole individual and the environment; PRDM provides tools for the nurse's analytical thinking system to correctly process information and its connections. A theoretical renewal is mandatory to improve nursing reasoning and nursing priority identification. Integrating PNEI and PRDM into nursing theoretics will modify the way professionals approach patients, reducing cognitive biases and medical errors. There was no patient or public involvement in the design or writing of this discursive article.

학교부적응 다문화청소년의 심리적 지원방안

The purpose of this study is to establish a policy for psychological support measures for multicultural youth by identifying the factors of school maladjustment of adolescents from multicultural families. As children from multicultural families enter school age, they suffer from mental difficulties such as depression and anxiety due to language, cultural differences, and social discrimination, leading to school maladjustment due to low self-esteem and interpersonal avoidance. Multicultural youth's school maladjustment is a very important part of Korean society and can develop into a social problem later, and multicultural youth's psychological support can play an important role in preventing and solving school maladjustment problems for various psychological reasons, such as family conflicts due to different values and cultural discrimination, and the formation of relationships with peers. Furthermore, it is important to create an environment to promote self-esteem and grow healthy with a positive self-image of multicultural youth, and to present policies for psychological support measures to solve school maladjustment problems in cooperation with families, educational institutions, and local communities.
