Understanding Online Meaning‐Making: Normativity, Polycentricity, and Memetic Communication Through a Chronotopic‐Scalar Lens

Journal of Sociolinguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article investigates memetic interaction as an illustrative example of complex polycentric online communication. Using a chronotopic‐scalar framework, it offers a theorized account of how online (inter)action works, how it is guided by (perceptions of) normativities, and how it is in dialogue with the “offline.” Specifically, I focus on ...

Fluctuating asymmetry based on fractal geometry does not track environmental stress in an intertidal habitat‐forming fucoid

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The availability of easy‐to‐measure and inexpensive biomarkers is a challenge for monitoring environmental stress in organisms. Although it has been proposed that non‐directional deviations from a symmetrical pattern in morphological traits (called fluctuating asymmetry.

Fractal Analysis of Periodontal Tissues in Geriatric Patients With Different Periodontal Conditions: A Retrospective Study

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study evaluated the relationship between fractal dimension (FD) values and periodontal status in geriatric patients using digital panoramic radiographs. Methodology In this retrospective observational study, 147 elderly individuals were classified as periodontally healthy (n = 30), gingivitis (n = 32), Stage I periodontitis (n =

Fractal Probability Theory

This paper introduces fractal probability theory, a novel extension to standard probability theory that incorporates a fundamental balance between probability and its complement. For any event A with standard probability µ(A), we define a fractal probability measure µr(A) = (1 − r)µ(A) + rµ(Ac), where r ∈ [0, 1/2] is the fractal ratio parameter ...

Transdiagnostic patterns of electroencephalography (EEG)‐derived aperiodic activity across schizophrenia‐spectrum, bipolar, and depressive disorders: A systematic review

Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, EarlyView.
Aperiodic electroencephalographic activity is proposed as a scalable marker of cortical population dynamics relevant to excitation–inhibition balance. However, it remains unclear whether aperiodic parameters represent disorder‐specific abnormalities or context‐sensitive indices of clinically relevant brain states.

Poetic Sociology

Sociological Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Can sociologists feel? Sociological writing can be beautiful, making us think differently about people, processes, and structures. Yet traditional academic writing that does this is rare. For example, most articles adhere to a jargon‐filled format and structure that mimics a detached and disciplined writer.
