Learning and retrieval of numerical information from newspaper texts and data visualisations in congruent and incongruent conditions
No full textVisualising numerical information in graphs to facilitate information processing from text has become a normal practice. To what extent is the congruency of graphical and textual information important? This study investigated how congruency between information presented in texts (real-life newspaper articles) and accompanying graphs affects memory and learning. The experiment was designed using three articles from the Czech newspaper Denik N that were modified to fit three different conditions: congruent (data in text and graph aligned), incongruent (data in text and graph differed), and graph-only (numerical data were removed from text). Participants read three articles and then were assessed for the information gained using multiple-choice tests. Findings suggest that under congruent conditions, retention of numerical data was facilitated, whereas under incongruent and graph-only conditions, the performance was impaired. This has practical implications for the usage of data visualisations in media and learning, as the usage of congruent information is important for information acquisition
Closed-loop drug delivery systems for neuromodulation: A scoping review
No full textObjectives
We aimed to provide an overview of existing literature concerning closed-loop drug delivery systems for neuromodulation. Our three specific objectives of this scoping review were to (1) conduct a systematic search of the published literature concerning closed-loop drug delivery systems for neuromodulation, (2) map characteristics and methodologies used, and (3) provide recommendations for the advancement of the research area.
Review questions
Primary Review Question:
• What is the current state of evidence regarding the use of closed-loop drug delivery systems for neuromodulation?
Secondary Review Questions:
• Are there any identifiable trends in closed-loop drug delivery systems for neuromodulation research over time?
• What is the technological readiness of closed-loop drug delivery systems for neuromodulation
36 Convergent Energy–Information Networks in Neurodevelopment: The ISHEA-TACC Analysis of 36 High-Impact Variants
No full textThis study integrates genetic, bioenergetic, and transcriptional data to reveal convergent pathways underlying neurodevelopmental disorders. Using a curated set of 36 high-priority variants associated with autism and related conditions, the analysis demonstrates significant enrichment across synaptic signaling, mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, and FOXP2-mediated transcriptional regulation. Protein–protein interaction modeling identifies FOXP2 as a central hub, linking synaptic, plasticity, and energy modules. These results support the ISHEA-TACC hypothesis that systemic failures in energy–information transfer, rather than isolated lesions, drive functional deficits. The framework also establishes a basis for digital biomarkers and non-pharmacological interventions targeting real-time network fidelity.
Wiki-style Summary:
The ISHEA-TACC framework (Knowledge–Transfer–Assimilation–Creative Action–Resilience) models biological systems as integrated information-energy networks. In this study, a set of 36 high-impact variants related to neurodevelopment was analyzed for enrichment and network topology. The genes were significantly associated with three convergent axes: synaptic signaling, mitochondrial function, and FOXP2 transcriptional regulation. Protein–protein interaction networks revealed highly interconnected modules, with FOXP2 as a central hub linking multiple functional domains. The findings highlight a systemic mechanism of neurological disorder, emphasizing energy–information convergence over single-gene pathogenicity. The framework also informs digital phenotyping approaches and microhabit-based interventions to restore bioenergetic and genetic coherence
Exploring Facet-Based Personality Trait Clusters and Achievement Goal Orientations among Filipino College Students
No full textAchievement goal orientations (AGOs) have long been regarded as central to understanding students’ motivation in achievement settings. But despite the extensive work done in examining the construct, existing literature has commonly positioned AGOs as predictors or mediators, primarily driven by questions of what AGOs lead to rather than what gives rise to them. Consequently, studies that examine antecedent-focused research on AGOs have emphasized that personality traits may be linked to how students pursue achievement in school settings because personality traits reflect individual differences in how goals are generated, pursued, and adjusted. But research on personality-AGO relations has predominantly adopted the Big Five dimensional, variable-centered approach, where personality is conceptualized through the five broad trait domains: Neuroticism, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Openness to Experience and Conscientiousness. This approach assumes that each domain is statistically independent, thereby focusing on how traits vary across individuals, while overlooking the extent to which trait configurations may meaningfully operate within individuals. The growing interest towards using person-centered approaches has likely contributed to recognizing such limitations in contemporary personality research, particularly through the use of cluster analysis. Cluster analysis not only allows traits to be clustered using broad trait domains but also using narrower personality components called facets. This method emphasizes that traits can co-occur in meaningful patterns, allowing them to simultaneously come together to be transformed into discrete, interpretable clusters. This method may advance antecedent-focused research on AGOs and provide a more detailed description of an individual’s personality by shifting the analytical focus on facets. Thus, this present study aims to explore the hypothesized relationship between facet-based personality trait clusters and AGOs. The findings of this study may be used to design learning environments or guidance strategies that align with students’ distinct personality configuration, support their engagement, and enhance their overall academic motivation and performance
