In Experiment I, subjects made similarity judgments about all 56 category terms listed in the Battig and Montague (1969) norms. These judgments were then subjected to a hierarchical clustering analysis. Experiment II demonstrated that the relations among the category labels are very similar to the relations among the high dominance exemplars of these categories. Experiment III showed that the distances between the category terms in the hierarchical clustering analysis could predict RTs in a same-different paradigm.

Shengli Clinical College of Fujian Medical University, Department of Pharmacy, Fujian Provincial Hospital, Fuzhou University Affiliated Provincial Hospital, Fuzhou, China.

Objective: Although there are certain drug categories associated with heart failure (HF), most of the associated risks are unclear. We investigated the top drugs associated with HF and acute HF (AHF) reported in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).

Methods: We reviewed publicly available FAERS databases from 2004 to 2023.

Background: Psychologists have developed frameworks to understand many constructs, which have subsequently informed the design of digital mental health interventions (DMHIs) aimed at improving mental health outcomes. The science of happiness is one such domain that holds significant applied importance due to its links to well-being and evidence that happiness can be cultivated through interventions. However, as with many constructs, the unique ways in which individuals experience happiness present major challenges for designing personalized DMHIs.

Rhinoplasty is one of the most common cosmetic procedures performed by plastic surgeons and otolaryngologists. Previous studies have concluded that the readability of rhinoplasty information does not meet the recommended guidelines for the 8th grade reading level. In this study, we performed an updated readability analysis and a comprehensive online review of decision-making factors for patients considering rhinoplasty.

Comprehensive comparison on different wavelength selection methods using several near-infrared spectral datasets with different dimensionalities.

Spectrochim Acta A Mol Biomol Spectrosc

NIR spectroscopy is widely used in chemical analysis, agricultural science, food safety, and other fields, but its high dimensionality and data redundancy bring analytical challenges. This study aims to compare the performance of different wavelength selection methods in NIR spectral datasets with different dimensionalities to provide a reference for researchers. The wavelength selection methods in this study were classified into four categories according to their principles, which are partial least squares (PLS) parameter-based methods, intelligent optimization algorithms (IOA)-based methods, model population analysis (MPA)-based methods and wavelength interval selection (WIS) methods.
