Relationship between Women`s Body Dissatisfaction, Sense of Coherence and Physical Activity

Baltic Journal of Sport and Health Sciences, 2018
Background. Socio-cultural pressure exerted by the environment and the media makes the majority of women take care of their bodies. That is especially true in Western culture which promotes slimmer women in recent decades. Methods.

Data‐Driven Review and Machine Learning Prediction of Diamond Vacancy Center Synthesis

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A machine learning framework is applied to photoluminescence spectra to extract linewidths and uncover how NV, SiV, GeV, and SnV centers evolve with growth and processing conditions. Unified normalization and k‐fold validation reveal cross‐method trends and enable rapid prediction of defect size and fabrication parameters, offering a data‐driven route ...

Worm‐Inspired Soft Robots With Modular Outfit‐Changing for Intelligent Multienvironment Adaptation

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study proposes a worm‐inspired soft robot capable of locomotion across multiple environments through a modular “outfit‐changing” strategy. The robot integrates pneumatically actuated peristaltic segments with interchangeable external modules, enabling efficient motion on ground surfaces, within pipelines, through granular media, and underwater ...

Comparing the Latent Features of Universal Machine‐Learning Interatomic Potentials

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study quantitatively assesses how universal machine‐learning interatomic potentials encode the chemical space into latent features, showing unique model‐specific representations with high cross‐model reconstruction errors. It explores how training datasets, protocols, and targets affect these encodings.

Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of quantum coherence beyond linear response

Communications Physics
Quantum thermodynamics allows for the interconversion of quantum coherence and mechanical work. Quantum coherence is thus a potential physical resource for quantum machines.

Integrating relational and intentional theories of discourse coherence

Glossa
This paper explores the ways in which insights from the two influential formal pragmatic theories of discourse coherence, namely, Question Under Discussion (QUD) and Rhetorical Relation (RR) models, can be integrated to build a more inclusive ...

Uncovering renewable energy policy impact channels on land values, the local farm structure, and farmland heterogeneity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

The role of sense of coherence in group relations training

SA Journal of Industrial Psychology, 2001
This research measured the role that sense of coherence (SOC) plays on an individual and group level during group relations training, presented to fifty-eight managers, using Antonovsky’s scale and an semi-structured interview.

Giving and receiving help in three contexts as predictors of alcohol outcomes in a longitudinal study of sober living house residents

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Although peer support is central to the social model approach emphasized in sober living houses (SLHs), no longitudinal studies have examined helping among SLH residents. This longitudinal study examined benefits of helping in three contexts among SLH residents. Data were from 205 participants entering 28 SLHs across 2021–2023. Interviews were

Neighborhood social environments and mental health among youth and adults in public housing

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Neighborhoods influence health in part through social processes. However, little is known about how multiple neighborhood social processes co‐occur, or about within (vs. between) neighborhood variation in social processes and health. This study asked how residents of a large public housing development describe their neighborhood and used ...
