Background and aims The goal of the present study was to create a short ProblematicSeries Watching Scale (PSWS). Methods On the basis of the six components model of Griffiths ( 2005 ), six items were identifiedcovering all components of problematic series watching. Confirmatoryfactor analyses were carried out on two independent samples (N = 366, N = 752). Results The PSWS has appropriate factor structure and reliability. Theamount of free time was not, but the series watching time was associatedwith PSWS scores. Women had higher scores than men. Discussion Before PSWS, no prior scale has been created to measure problematicseries watching. Further research is needed to properly assess itsvalidity and reliability; and for examining whether extensive serieswatching can lead to health-related and psychosocial problems. Conclusions In the increasingly digitalized world there are many motivationalforces which encourage people watching online series. In the lightof these changes, research on problematic series watching will beprogressively relevant.

Soil reinforcement is one of the techniques used to enhance the engineer characteristics of the soil. Various techniques can be employed to stabilise problematic soils, such as soft clay. These include the utilisation of portland cement, lime, fly ash, ground freezing, jet grouting, prefabricated vertical drains, and thermal approaches.

This research introduces the Generalized Extreme Value Mixture Autoregressive (GEVMAR) model as an innovative approach for examining non-standard actuarial datasets within general insurance. Information concerning claim reserves often reveals notable volatility and multimodal distributions, attributes that standard models, including previous method such as the Gaussian Mixture Autoregressive (GMAR) model and other autoregressive methodologies, find problematic to manage effectively. The GEVMAR model integrates the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution alongside Bayesian estimation techniques, augmented by a modified Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) metric to improve predictive accuracy.

Background: The aims of this review were to identify and to analyze the clinical studies that used subcutaneous injections of dextrose for treating musculoskeletal pain, in order to establish an overview.
Methods: A systematic search was carried out in scientific databases including Web of Science, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, PUBMED and other sources, up until March 2024. We included clinical studies that used subcutaneous injections of dextrose in the treatment of individuals with musculoskeletal pain associated with tendinopathies, enthesopathy, osteoarthritis, ligament sprains, muscle strains or bursitis of various locations.
