How and why aversive personality is expressed in political preferences
J Pers Soc Psychol. 2024 Apr 18. doi: 10.1037/pspp0000498. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPolitical orientation reflects beliefs, opinions, and values that are, at least in part, rooted in stable interindividual differences. Whereas evidence has accumulated with regard to the relevance of basic personality dimensions, especially concerning the sociocultural dimension of political ideology, less attention has been paid to the more specific dispositional tendency to assign a higher weight to one's own utility above others' (i.e., socially aversive personality), which is likely to play a pivotal role concerning the economic di...

Community-Centred Environmental Discourse: Redefining Water Management in the Murray Darling Basin, Australia
AbstractThe Australian government's response to the Millennium Drought (1997 –2010) has been met with praise and contestation. While proponents saw the response as timely and crucial, critics claimed it was characterized by government overreach and mismanagement. Five months of field research in farm communities in the Murray Darling Basin (MDB) identified two dominant dis courses: administrative rationalism and a local community-based discourse I have termed community-centrism. Administrative rationalism reflects the value of scientific inquiry in service to the state and is the dominant research-based problem-solving m...

Limiting money: redesigning the artifact that shapes modern people
AbstractThe transdisciplinary argument in this article is that the social and ecological unsustainability of modern, globalized capitalism ultimately derives from the design of its central artifact: what Polanyi called all- or general-purpose money. The notion of a singular measure of economic value is a peculiar cultural conception that is inherently at odds with physical reality, yet it pervades modern economic thought and practice as if it were immutable. To transcend the political impasse of economic globalization, a complementary national currency (CC) exclusively for local use could distinguish a sphere of exchange a...

Charred bones are signs of Maya ritual to erase past rulers
In 2022, Christina Halperin was excavating a pile of rubble in a Maya pyramid at a Guatemalan site called Ucanal. As she sorted through thousands of shattered greenstones, seashells, and obsidian pieces, she noticed something peculiar. “This soil was so sooty and full of carbon,” the University of Montreal archaeologist recalls. “You couldn’t excavate … you couldn’t be clean.” Now, her team knows what the dense, sooty debris was made of: the burnt bones of ancient Maya royalty and their ornaments. In a paper published today in Antiquity , the researchers describe the unusual burning event...

A simplified, 2-question grading system for evaluating abstracts in orthopedic scientific meetings: a serial randomization study
CONCLUSION: The simplified abstract grading system exhibited a poor correlation with the current scoring system, while the new system offers a more inclusive evaluation of varying study designs and is preferred by almost all DOASC members.PMID:38629944 | PMC:PMC11022873 | DOI:10.2340/17453674.2024.40504 (Source: Acta Orthopaedica)

Analysis of causal relations between vaccine hesitancy for COVID-19 vaccines and ideological orientations in Brazil
This article presents a causal inference analysis of vaccine hesitancy for Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines based on socio-demographic data obtained via questionnaires applied to a sample of the Brazilian population. This data includes the respondents' political preferences, age group, education, salary range, country region, sex, believing fake news, vaccine confidence, and intention to get the COVID-19 vaccine. The research created a causal graph using these variables, seeking to answer questions about the probability of people getting vaccinated. The results of this research corroborate findings observed in ...

Evaluation of the public health measures introduced during the coronavirus pandemic: Evidence-based risk communication must be a central topic
Z Evid Fortbild Qual Gesundhwes. 2024 Apr 15:S1865-9217(24)00052-7. doi: 10.1016/j.zefq.2024.03.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEvidence-based and comprehensible health information is a key element of evidence-based medicine and public health. The goal is informed decision-making based on realistic estimations of health risks and accurate expectations about benefits and harms of interventions. In Germany, standards of evidence-based risk information were poorly followed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Frequently, public information was biased, fragmentary and misleading. Pandemic-related threat scenarios induced emotional...
