Development and Validation of the Certainty About Mental States Questionnaire (CAMSQ): A Self-Report Measure of Mentalizing Oneself and Others
(2021-12-14)
The Certainty About Mental States Questionnaire (CAMSQ) is a self-report measure of the perceived capacity to understand mental states of the self and others (i.e., mentalizing). In two studies (total N = 1828), we developed the CAMSQ in both English and German as a two-dimensional measure of Self- and Other-Certainty, investigated associations with other measures of mentalizing, and explored relationships to personality functioning and mental health. The CAMSQ performed well in terms of convergent and discriminant ...

Das Beurteilen von Lernprodukten als Facette diagnostischer Kompetenz fördern
(2022-12-02)
Diagnostische Kompetenz ist eine zentrale Komponente der professionellen Kompetenzen von Lehrkräften, die die Qualität von Unterricht und somit das Lernen von Schülerinnen und Schülern beeinflusst. Aufgrund dieser zentralen Bedeutung rückt die systematische Schulung der diagnostischen Kompetenz zunehmend in den Forschungsfokus. Diese Arbeit zielt auf die Erforschung der Förderung diagnostischer Kompetenz im Bereich der Mathematik ab. Wir stellen eine quasi-experimentelle Studie mit Treatment- und Kontrollgruppe vor, ...

The role of design patterns in the development and legal assessment of lawful technologies
(2022-10-22)
Novel technologies such as smart personal assistants integrate digital services into everyday life. These services use personal data to offer personalized services. While they are subject to special data protection regulations at the time of development, there are few guidelines describing the transition from legal requirements to implementation. To reduce risks, services depend on external legal assessments. With developers and legal experts often missing either legal or technical knowledge, the challenge lies in ...

Exploring the associations between psychodynamic constructs and psychopathology: A network approach
(2022-07-25)
Psychodynamic therapy effectively reduces symptomatology by focusing on underlying (unconscious) processes instead of symptoms. Nevertheless, the exact interrelationship between psychodynamic constructs and psychopathology remains unclear. This study uses network analysis to explore these associations. We computed a cross-sectional partial correlation network between psychodynamic constructs (i.e., personality functioning, interpersonal relations, and active and passive modes of intrapsychic conflicts according to ...

The Formation of β-Strand Nine (β9) in the Folding and Insertion of BamA from an Unfolded Form into Lipid Bilayers
(2023-02-19)
Transmembrane proteins span lipid bilayer membranes and serve essential functions in all living cells. Membrane-inserted domains are of either α-helical or β-barrel structure. Despite their biological importance, the biophysical mechanisms of the folding and insertion of proteins into membranes are not well understood. While the relative composition of the secondary structure has been examined by circular dichroism spectroscopy in folding studies for several outer membrane proteins, it is currently not known how ...

Legitimacy, Shared Understanding and Exchange of Resources: Co-managing Lakes Along an Urban–Rural Gradient in Greater Bengaluru Metropolitan Region, India
(2023-02-10)
Co-management is increasingly seen as a way forward in natural resource management and collective goods provisioning, especially in the management of urban commons. Co-management entails sharing of power between actors, including elements such as exchange of information and resources as well as changes in regulations favouring the development of common goals among actors. In this paper, we try to understand if and how preconditions of legitimacy, shared understanding and exchange of resources combine to facilitate ...

Soil microbial properties of subalpine steppe soils at different grazing intensities in the Chinese Altai Mountains
(2021-01-18)
Long-term provision of ecosystem services by grasslands is threatened by increasing stocking densities. The functions of grassland ecosystems depend on a mutual relationship between aboveground and belowground biota. While the effects of increasing stocking density on plant biomass are well studied, little is known about its impact on soil microbial properties. To fill this knowledge gap a grazing experiment was conducted on a summer pasture in the Chinese Altai Mountains during the summers of 2014 and 2015 using a ...

Modality-general benefit of eye-closure on the retrieval of intentionally learned information
(2023-01-23)
The beneficial effect of eye-closure during retrieval was demonstrated in many studies addressing eyewitness memory or memory of episodic events. Fewer studies examined the effect concerning the intentional learning of verbal information. Furthermore, the question of whether the eye-closure effect is modality-specific, boosting visual memory only, or modality-general, boosting also other forms of memory (e.g., auditory memory), is still open. These issues were addressed in the present study. Participants (N = 129) ...

Bacterivorous Nematodes Correlate with Soil Fertility and Improved Crop Production in an Organic Minimum Tillage System
(2020-08-19)
Reduced nutrient mineralization rates under minimum tillage are usually compensated by mineral fertilizer application. These, however, cannot be applied in organic farming systems. We hypothesized that an organic minimum tillage system based on frequent cover cropping and application of dead mulch would improve soil fertility and compensate for the potential negative effects of minimum tillage. Two long-term field experiments were set up in 2010 and 2011 to compare plowing versus minimum tillage including the application ...

Emission and Mechanical Properties of Glass and Cellulose Fiber Reinforced Bio-Polyamide Composites
(2023-06-07)
Climate change, access, and monopolies to raw material sources as well as politically motivated trade barriers are among the factors responsible for a shortage of raw materials. In the plastics industry, resource conservation can be achieved by substituting commercially available petrochemical-based plastics with components made from renewable raw materials. Innovation potentials are often not used due to a lack of information on the use of bio-based materials, efficient processing methods, and product technologies ...
