Psychometric properties of the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) across cross-cultural subgroups, genders, and sexual orientations: Findings from the International Sex Survey (ISS)
(2023-11-30)INTRODUCTION: Despite being a widely used screening questionnaire, there is no consensus on the most appropriate measurement model for the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT). Furthermore, there have been ... -
Psychosocial interventions for survivors of rape and sexual assault experienced during adulthood (Review)
(2023-10-05)Background: Exposure to rape, sexual assault and sexual abuse has lifelong impacts for mental health and well-being. Prolonged Exposure (PE), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing ... -
AALLA: Attack-Aware Logical Link Assignment Cost-Minimization Model for Protecting Software-Defined Networks against DDoS Attacks
(2023-11-02)Software-Defined Networking (SDN), which is used in Industrial Internet of Things, uses a controller as its “network brain” located at the control plane. This uniquely distinguishes it from the traditional networking ... -
Evaluation of Soil Suppressiveness of Various Japanese Soils against the Soybean Cyst Nematode Heterodera glycines and Its Relation with the Soil Chemical and Biological Properties
(2023-11-16)This study aimed to evaluate the suppressive potential of different soils on soybean cyst nematodes (SCN) and to estimate the suppressive mechanism. Fifteen soils (designated as soil A to O) from different agricultural ... -
Characterizing the Vibration Responses of Flexible Workpieces during the Turning Process for Quality Control
(2023-11-23)Featured Application: This study represents a breakthrough in the engineering of turning processes for manufacturing. By examining dynamic properties and vibration response during turning, it provides key insights for ... -
The Possible Role of Prescribing Medications, Including Central Nervous System Drugs, in Contributing to Male-Factor Infertility (MFI): Assessment of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Pharmacovigilance Database
(2023-12-31)Background: A wide range of medications may have a possible role in the development of male-factor infertility (MFI), including various antineoplastic agents, testosterone/anabolic steroids, immunosuppressive drugs/immun ... -
Enhancing Thermal Energy Storage in Buildings with Novel Functionalised MWCNTs-Enhanced Phase Change Materials: Towards Efficient and Stable Solutions
(2024-01-01)Phase change materials (PCMs) are a promising panacea to tackle the intermittency of renewable energy sources, but their thermal performance is limited by low thermal conductivity (TC). This pioneering work investigates ... -
Optical Measurement of Airborne Particles on Unmanned Aircraft
(2023-09-30)Aerosols and clouds are persistent causes of uncertainty in climate and weather models, which is due to their heterogeneous suspension and occurrence within the atmosphere, and complex interactions which are chaotic and ... -
Problematising entanglement fetishism in IR: On the possibility of being without being in relation
(2023-08-23)The following article seeks to question the deterministic tinge behind entanglement fetishism, namely the celebratory, uninhibited, and totalising projection of the world as a relational wholeness. Alongside the rise of ... -
Work on through the storm : Platform work in the pandemic
(2023-11-28)Drawing on quantitative and qualitative research in England, and more specifically in London, this article sheds light on trends in platform work during the COVID-19 crisis. While the number of platform workers grew, the ... -
