Understanding identity processes in support for reactionary and progressive social movements among advantaged and disadvantaged groups
Gaëlle Marinthe, Aleksandra Cichocka, Aleksandra Cislak, Natasha Alexander‐Grose, Flavio Azevedo
Oct 06, 2022
Abstract: Across five studies (two representative, one pre‐registered, total N = 4962), we examined the role of collective narcissism and secure identity in support for reactionary (Alt‐Right and nationalist) and progressive...
Emergency Remote Education and Smart Working at Three European Higher Education Institutions
Due to the threat posed by COVID-19, many colleges and universities around the world opted to switch to online courses and smart working to keep their students, professors, and staff safe during the pandemic emergency....

Their own worst enemy? Collective narcissists are willing to conspire against their in-group.
Collective narcissism - a belief in in-group greatness that is not appreciated by others - is associated with using one's group for personal benefits. Across one pilot and four studies, we demonstrated that collective narcissism...
Keep nice and carry on

Practicing acts of kindness is beneficial to one’s well-being, but is simply being nice to others also beneficial? In a correlational Study 1 (N=497), self-reported behavioral niceness was positively correlated with happiness...

Projective geometry and the quaternionic Feix-Kaledin construction
Starting from a complex manifold S with a real-analytic c-projective structure whose curvature has type (1, 1), and a complex line bundle L → S with a connection whose curvature has type (1, 1), we construct the twistor space...
Bicycling campaigns promoting health versus campaigns promoting safety
This study tested the idea that promoting bicycle safety might inadvertently discourage bicycling by having negative effects on how the activity is perceived. It also tested the contrary idea that stressing the health benefits...
Adult chondrogenesis and spontaneous cartilage repair in the skate, Leucoraja erinacea
Mammalian articular cartilage is an avascular tissue with poor capacity for spontaneous repair. Here, we show that embryonic development of cartilage in the skate (Leucoraja erinacea) mirrors that of mammals, with developing...
Spatial distribution of macroalgae along the shores of Kongsfjorden (West Spitsbergen) using acoustic imaging
The identification of macroalgal beds is a crucial component for the description of fjord ecosystems. Direct, biological sampling is still the most popular investigation technique but acoustic methods are becoming increasingly...

Using the entropy of the corneal pulse signal to distinguish healthy eyes from eyes affected by primary open-angle glaucoma
Abstract: Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the complexity of the corneal pulse (CP) signal can be used to differentiate patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) from healthy subjects....

Imaging of Optically Active Defects with Nanometer Resolution.
Jiandong Feng, Hendrik Deschout, Sabina Caneva, Stephan Hofmann, Ivor Lončarić, Predrag Lazić, Aleksandra Radenovic
May 04, 2018
Point defects significantly influence the optical and electrical properties of solid-state materials due to their interactions with charge carriers, which reduce the band-to-band optical transition energy. There has been a...
Evaluation of seabed mapping methods for fine-scale classification of extremely shallow benthic habitats – application to the Venice Lagoon, Italy
Giacomo Montereale Gavazzi, Fantina Madricardo, Lukas Janowski, Aleksandra Kruss, Philippe Blondel, Marco Sigovini, Federica Foglini
Mar 05, 2016
Recent technological developments of multibeam echosounder systems (MBES) allow mapping of benthic habitats with unprecedented detail. MBES can now be employed in extremely shallow waters, challenging data acquisition (as these...
Normal aging and Parkinson's disease are associated with the functional decline of distinct frontal-striatal circuits.
Impaired ability to shift attention between stimuli (i.e. shifting attentional 'set') is a well-established part of the dysexecutive syndrome in Parkinson's Disease (PD), nevertheless cognitive and neural bases of this deficit...

Vibrational spectra and lattice thermal conductivity of kesterite-structured Cu2ZnSnS4 and Cu2ZnSnSe4
Jonathan M. Skelton, Adam J. Jackson, Mirjana Dimitrievska, Suzanne K. Wallace, Aron Walsh
Apr 01, 2015
Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) is a promising material for photovoltaic and thermoelectric applications. Issues with quaternary semiconductors include chemical disorder (e.g., Cu–Zn antisites) and disproportionation into secondary phases...
A C. elegans model for neurodegeneration in Cockayne syndrome.

Cockayne syndrome (CS) is a congenital syndrome characterized by growth and mental retardation, and premature ageing. The complexity of CS and mammalian models warrants simpler metazoan models that display CS-like phenotypes...
Structure and oligomerization of the periplasmic domain of GspL from the type II secretion system of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
The ability of bacteria to infect a host relies in part on the secretion of molecular virulence factors across the cell envelope. Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a ubiquitous environmental bacterium causing opportunistic infections in...
