Cumulative risk, factor analysis, and latent class analysis of childhood adversity data in a nationally representative sample

BackgroundChildhood adversity is a multifaceted construct that is in need of comprehensive operationalisation. ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to explore the optimal method to operationalise a scale of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). Participants and settingData were from Wave 1 of the Personality and Total Health (PATH) Through Life Project (N = 7485, 51% women). Participants from three age groups (20–25, 40–45, 60–65) retrospectively reported their childhood experiences of domestic adversity on a 17-item scale (e.g., physical abuse, verbal abuse, neglect, poverty). MethodsWe compared three approaches to operationalising the 17-item scale: a cumulative risk approach, factor analysis, and latent class analysis (LCA). The cumulative risk and dimensional models were represented by a unidimensional and two-dimensional model respectively using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). ResultsThe cumulative risk approach and LCA were viable approaches to operationalising ACE data in PATH. CFA of the dimensional model produced latent factors of threat and deprivation that were highly correlated, potentially leading to problems with multicollinearity when estimating associations. LCA revealed six classes of ACEs: high adversity, low adversity, low affection, authoritarian upbringing, high parental dysfunction, and moderate parental dysfunction. ConclusionOur study found multiple latent classes within a 17-item questionnaire assessing domestic adversity. Using both the cumulative method and latent class approach may be a more informative approach when examining the relationship between ACEs and later health outcomes. Future ACE studies may benefit by considering multi-dimensional approaches to operationalising adversity.

Effects of climate change on the distribution of threatened invertebrates in a Mediterranean hotspot

Abstract The effects of climate change may constitute a major threat factor for endemic and threatened species of invertebrates. A particularly dramatic case can be found in the Iberian Peninsula, because of its high rate of species diversity and endemism. We aim to evaluate the effects of climate change on the distribution of 36 endangered and endemic species of invertebrates within the Iberian Peninsula using species distribution models. We used an ensemble species distribution modelling framework to estimate the species potential distributions under current and future (2050 and 2070) climatic conditions for two different areas: the whole Iberian Peninsula and the current species ranges. We assessed species vulnerability to climate change by calculating three complementary indexes: change in suitable area, persistence in suitable area and turnover in suitable area. Annual mean precipitation was the variable that contributed most to the climatic models. We categorised 25 species as ‘losers’ because they will experience a reduction in their total suitable area under future climatic conditions, six species were categorised as ‘winners’ and six showed contradictory results. Climate change will have several effects on species by changing their suitable distributions and may affect their persistence. Species with narrow distributions associated with mountain ranges will experience the worst future projected conditions, while arid‐adapted species are expected to expand their distributions. Factors assessing the vulnerability of endemic and endangered species can be taken into account to develop strategies that mitigate the negative effects of climate change.

Traditional uses and local management practices of Adansonia digitata L. in different ethnic groups of Quara wereda, North West low land of Ethiopia

Adansonia digitata (African baobab) is one of the most important wild edible plant and a key species with high ecological and socioeconomic significance in most of tropical Africa. It is a multipurpose fruit-bearing and physically huge tree with more than 300 traditional uses and commercial values. The lack of literature on traditional uses and management practices for A. digitata by various ethnic groups hinder the promotion of sustainable management of the tree species in Ethiopia. The aims of this study were to: (i) document traditional uses and local management practices of A. digitata among three ethnic groups; and (ii) identify major threat factors that affect A. digitata population. A semi-structured questionnaire was administered to 101 households, using multi-stage sampling techniques, selected from three representative kebeles, the lowest administrative unit, (Gelegu, Banbaho and Dubaba) in Quara wereda. Group discussions and key informant interviews were also held with 15 and 3 informants, respectively. Socioeconomic data were analyzed using inferential statistics like chi-square tests and narrative analysis. Overall seven main traditional uses of A. digitata products (food, fodder, medicine, fiber, hanging beehive, commercial and soil improvement) were documented among three ethnic groups, with a greater number of uses mentioned within Gumuz ethnic group. The uses of A. digitata products are found to be lower in the Quara wereda than in other African countries. The traditional knowledge on commercial, fiber and food uses of A. digitata didn't vary among ethnic groups. The fruit (pulp) was commonly used as supplementary food, to make beverages, for medicine and it seems to be the only plant part sold commercially by all ethnic groups. Traditional knowledge on medicinal uses of A. digitata tree products have significantly varied among ethnic groups (P < 0.001). The Gumuz ethnic group appears to be the local expert in the use of the tree for medicinal purpose. In general, 100% and 93% of the local communities support their basic needs by consuming and selling A. digitata products, respectively. The majority of respondents (52%) reported a total absence of specific management practices such as assisted natural regeneration, seeding, or transplantation of A. digitata sapling except pruning, lopping and fencing of the naturally grown individual trees. Browsers, grazers, fire, forest clearing and removal of seedlings on farmlands contributed to the decline of the species populations. Local people acknowledged declining populations of A. digitata with lower densities across the landscapes. Results can be used to support the sustainable use of A. digitata in the study area, including conservation, commercialization and organization of market channels. Furthermore the benefits from the A. digitata tree need to be promoted in order to fully utilize its potential in improving livelihoods of rural communities in Quara wereda.

Parameter assignment for InVEST habitat quality module based on principal component analysis and grey coefficient analysis.

The Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Tradeoffs (InVEST) model is a concise approach to evaluate the status of habitat quality for supporting ecosystem management and decision making. Assigning parameters accurately in the InVEST model is the premise for effectively simulating habitat quality. The purpose of this study is to propose an available method for assigning the important parameters in the Habitat Quality module of InVEST. Herein, the methods of principal component analysis (PCA) and grey relational analysis (GRA) were utilized to assign the weights of threat factors and the sensitivity of each habitat type to each threat factor, respectively. Through a case study of the habitat quality of Fuzhou City, we find that using PCA and GRA methods to assign parameters is feasible. Generally, the habitat quality of Fuzhou City in 2015 and 2018 was above the fair suitable level, and the proportion of fair suitable and good suitable habitats was about 83%. The areas with higher habitat quality were mainly concentrated in forest, wetland and grassland ecosystems. The spots with lower habitat quality were scattered all over the main urban areas of districts and counties, and their periphery. GDP per capita and population density were the main factors that affect the habitat quality of Fuzhou City. Narrowing the economic imbalance gap is an important way to reduce population shift and relieve the pressure of the urban environment in economically developed areas. This study is expected to provide an effective method for assigning parameters in the InVEST Habitat Quality Module and support regional ecosystem conservation.

Saudi foreign policy doctrine post‐2011: The Iranian factor and balance of threat

AbstractSince 2011, Saudi foreign policy has shifted from its traditional position of self‐restraint and reliance on soft power to an assertive and adventurous one that prioritizes expanding security alliances and use of force. Particularly, after the advent of King Salman to power, the Kingdom experienced various turning points in its foreign policymaking such as its pursuit of increased military engagement in the post‐Arab Spring countries, its normalization of relations with Israel and adopting a new armament program. This unusual shift in the Saudi foreign policymaking inevitably raises the question: “What led Riyadh to adopt policies that completely broke away from its traditional position?.” A closer look at the recent developments unfolding in the region since the Arab uprisings reveals that the Saudi foreign policy decisions are primarily guided by its perceived threat from Iran. Against this backdrop, this article first investigates why Saudi Arabia views Iran as the biggest threat to its survival. Second, it analyzes the new Saudi foreign policy orientation and its implications in light of balance of threat theory. Finally, the article looks into how the change in the US administration and the end of unconditional US support to Saudi Arabia influenced the Kingdom's discourse and tone vis a vis Iran. The article mainly proposes that Saudi Arabia's increasing threat perception from Iran sheds light on the Kingdom's reasoning and motivation behind its more proactive and assertive policies while the Kingdom's discourse and policymaking is heavily restricted by the ambivalence in the US posture in the Middle East and particularly its stance toward Riyadh's policies.

Tweet Credibility Detection for COVID-19 Tweets using Text and User Content Features

The deadly COVID-19 pandemic is currently sweeping the globe, and millions of people have been exposed to false information about the disease, its remedies, prevention, and origins. During such perilous times, the propagation of fake news and misinformation can have serious implications, causing widespread panic and exacerbating the pandemic's threat. This increasing threat factor has given rise to considerable research challenges. This article is mainly concerned about fake news identification and experimentation is specifically performed considering COVID-19 fake news as a case study. Fake news is spread intentionally to mislead the people and therefore we need to identify user’s involvement and it’s correlation with additional features. The aim of this research is to develop a model that can predict the essence of a tweet given as an input with the help of multiple features. Our strategy is to make use of the tweet's text as well as the user's metadata and develops a model using natural processing technique and deep learning method. In this process, we have analyzed the behavior of the accounts, observed the impact of the various factors that can lead to fake news. The experimental analysis shows that hybrid model with text and content features have generated a benchmark result than the existing state of art techniques. We have obtained a best F1-score of 0.976 during the experimentation.

Analysis of Construction Implementation Time and Cost Scheduling by Adjusting Budget Changes Due to the Covid-19 Pandemic (Case Study on the Randugunting Dam Construction Project)

The Randugunting Dam, located in Blora Regency, is planned to have a capacity of 10.40 million m and is expected to irrigate an area of 630 Ha, providing a raw water supply of 0.15 m/second. The construction activity of the Randugunting Dam is one of the construction works that has been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, namely cash flow is hampered. Therefore we need an analysis of cash flow management scenarios and determining strategies for handling the impact of the pandemic on implementation. The data used in this study is the result of interviews with the project implementation team for the Randugunting Dam construction, and data on the project cost budget. Cash flow management analysis is carried out by applying 3 scenarios, namely: scenario 1 (fixed time), scenario 2 (slowed down time), and scenario 3 (accelerated time). The analysis was carried out with the help of the Microsoft Project 2010. The determination of the handling strategy in this study used the DSS (Decision Support System) method, and the SWOT (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threat). The results of the study chose scenario 3, which is to speed up the time of 6 months. Acceleration is done by increasing the working time. The annual cost required is higher than scenario 1 (fixed time) and 2 (delayed time by 7 months), but the building is completed faster and can be used immediately. The strategy generated by SWOT analysis is Diversity Strategy and produces 8 (eight) strategies. Diversity Strategy is a strategy by maximizing internal strength factors (S), namely increasing the internal capabilities of project implementers and avoiding external threat factors (T), especially related to the Covid-19 pandemic.

"섬진강침실습지의 2020년 홍수 전·후 토지피복 및 퇴적환경 변화 연구"

This study analyzed the changes in land-cover and sedimentary environment before and after flooding through drone images and sediment analysis for the Seomjin River Chimsil Wetland. The results showed that the area of some land-covers such as sand bar, grass, and trees were continuously changed. The acidity level of the sediments in the Seomjin River Chimsil Wetland was weakened gradually by flooding and EC was also decreased. The levels of organic matter, effective phosphoric acid, and CEC, however, were fluctuating depending on branches, which seems to be the result of landization as new sedimentary environment was developed and vegetation was settled after the flood. Average mean size of river sediments was found to be fine sand, and it exhibited various particle size characteristics from granule to medium silt depending on the location. As the sedimentary environment changed due to the effects of floods and typhoons, the particles were granulated or grain refined depending on the position. In the Seomjin River Chimsil Wetland, there were factors that could interfere with geomorphic development and sedimentary environment, contamination sources in and around the wetland, and natural threat factors. Therefore, in this study, a conservation and management plan was proposed to remove these threat factors and to preserve the scarcity, naturalness, and dynamics of Seomjin River Chimsil Wetland.

Introduction

In 2022, the Digest of Middle East Studies celebrates its 30th year of publishing diverse and timely scholarship on the Middle East and its second year as a quarterly publication. The transition to the quarterly publication, as well as a sharpened focus on policy-relevant scholarship, was ably undertaken by the outgoing editor, Dr. Kadir Yildirim, who has developed the journal in many valuable ways. As the new editor, I have the honor of carrying this study forward and ensuring that the journal continues to be a venue for wide-ranging, empirically grounded, analytically valuable, and deeply interesting scholarship on the Middle East. In the present issue, our authors address important questions of foreign policy, sectarian mobilization, party politics, ideology, and international law. The wide range and deep expertise presented here are a real strength of the Digest of Middle East Studies as a publication, and we are pleased to present these articles to our readers. Ayfer Erdoğan's “Saudi Foreign Policy Doctrine Post-2011: The Iranian Factor and Balance of Threat” examines a shift toward a more assertive Saudi foreign policy in recent years. The article identifies several changing conditions that have elevated the perceived threat from Iran and prompted a move toward a foreign policy more reliant upon security alliances and the use of force than had been the case traditionally. In “Party Corruption in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq: Context and Implications,” Farhad Hassan Abdullah provides a highly detailed examination of party choices in the context of Kurdish regional and national politics, arguing that the dominant parties have made use of the features of the electoral system to engage in political corruption. On the often-considered subject of sectarianism, Hadi Wahab's “Sectarian Mobilization from Below: A Case Study of the Druze Anthems” offers a new analysis focusing on songs used as tools of mobilization among Druze; his article describes the anthems and argues that they reveal a connection not only to specific events but to Druze historiography and sectarian polemic. Political meaning and relevance are, of course, found not only in policies and parties; the arts can become an arena for claims about social meaning and ideology. In “The Ideological Trends in Ali Ahmad Bakathir's Salamat al-Qass,” Redhwan Rashed offers an analysis of a novel and novelist whose approach to an apparently nonpolitical subject, love, necessarily implicates attitudes about religion and about the novel itself as art and as a social guide. In 2022, the journal will also continue to include scholarly commentary articles focusing on particularly timely issues; in this issue, Benjamin Muller directs attention to the long-running, controversial, and recently-concluded Special Tribunal for Lebanon, critically assessing its effects in light of not only its original purposes, but the subsequent crises in the country and current conditions. I would like to thank most sincerely the reviewers who have given their time and expertise in the peer-review process; we are always grateful for their valuable work, and particularly so considering the additional burdens many have felt during the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, by the nature of such transitions, this issue continues to reflect the contributions of Dr. Kildirim and outgoing editorial assistant Lara Lin; I am deeply grateful for their assistance and that of the journal's new editorial assistant, Misha Datskovsky. We hope that you will find the articles in this issue of DOMES engaging and interesting.

Study of Vital Capacity Relation to BMI in 1st-Year Medical Students

Being overweight and other problems due to increasing weight increased BMI are looked forward as an “epidemic shoot up,” having a massive effect on every country in the world nevertheless it being developed or developing. Obesity is related to a vast range of devitalizing, enervating, and destructive issues, which include circulatory, vascular, cardiorespiratory, metabolic, and different non-transferable diseases. Apart from the contribution of these elements, the increment in BMI, the irregularity in eating regimen, lack of exercise, and addiction as a result of traumatic situations in which stress mental health appears to play a crucial role, therefore it’s being taken into consideration as an unbiased component for increment in BMI by everyone. During the training period, medical school students are prone to various stress. Therefore, to discover the prevalence of obesity and increased BMI problems amongst the undergraduate students of the medical school, this observation is being carried out.&#x0D; Purpose: To determine the prevalence of obese and increased BMI problems amongst medical students and its relation with vital capacity. Additionally, to discover the connection of the subsequent threat factors with increased BMI: (a) lacking exercise, (b) sleep pattern, (c) dietary regime, (d) mental health (trauma, stress), and (e) unison of varied variety of diseases (thyroid issues, menstrual problems).&#x0D; Procedure: A detailed cross-sectional study was carried out in the Physiology Department among hundreds of students. After taking the consent of the hundred students, these facts have been gathered by using pretested questionnaires. These students’ height and weight were precisely taken, and their BMI was calculated carefully.&#x0D; Results: Of these100 medical school students, the mean ± standard deviation, height was 1.67 ± 0.09 meters (m), and the mean weight was 66.61 ± 12.71 kilograms (kg), and the mean BMI was 23.54 ± 3.09 kg/m2. A normal BMI was observed in 73.1%of the MBBS students, whereas 22.3% were overweight, 3.1% were obese, and only 1.5% were underweight. Corpulent and increased BMI was observed drastically greater in boys than girls.&#x0D; Inference: The recent studies offer a concept about the excessive occurrence of adiposity and obesity among medical school students. Consciousness and intrigue are to be necessarily created concerning a healthy diet regime and a weight controlling framework amongst the doctor population in the future. Dietary nutrition training on food and ingestion practices and existence alternations to the way of living ought to be constructed in and as for academic interest throughout entire schooling years.

Psychotic Experiences and Sleep Quality in the Emerging Adulthood: The Interplay Between Emotional Neglect, Bodily Threat, and Defense Mechanisms.

The present study investigated the integrated role of emotional neglect, bodily threat, and defense mechanisms in understanding sleep quality and psychosis experiences in a sample of emerging adults. A sample of 898 emerging adults (295 males) with an age range between 19 and 30 years participated in this study. The emotional neglect and bodily threat factors of the Traumatic Experiences Checklist, the Defense Style Questionnaire-40, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and the psychosis factor of the Inventory of Personality Organization were administered. Results of path analyses showed that the emotional neglect and bodily threat factors predicted lower sleep quality. A path from emotional neglect and bodily threat to sleep quality via defense styles was also found. The defense styles mediated the relationships between emotional neglect and bodily threat factor with psychosis experiences. These findings provide new insight into the psychological mechanisms underlying the onset of poor sleep quality and psychotic experiences during emerging adulthood.
