We retrieved the current profile picture of 2234 Italian Facebook users who also answered self-report questionnaires on demographic variables and personality. Data were collected between March and June 2018 using a Facebook web application. Profile pictures consisting of 200 × 200 resolution jpegs were obtained by sending a request via the Facebook Graph API and analyzed using online commercial services allowing for the scoring of facial expressions in image data, namely Microsoft Azure Face API and MEGVII Face++ Detect API. Both services provide emotional expression scores if at least one face is successfully detected in the picture. Using the Microsoft Azure Face API we obtained scores for anger, contempt, disgust, fear, joy, sadness, surprise, and neutrality. Using the MEGVII Face++ Detect API, pictures were scored for the presence of anger, disgust, fear, joy, sadness, and surprise, and neutrality. Higher scores on each emotion refer to a stronger expression of the respective emotion. The dataset presented here consists of data of N =728 Facebook users with a profile picture in which both APIs detected only one face. Regarding self-report data, the dataset includes the following demographic information about the participants: gender and age. The dataset also includes participants' personality scores based on a short validated assessment of Big Five traits (Ten Item Personality Inventory), and Impulsivity/Sensation Seeking (IMPSS8). A document including the questions administered in the online survey is attached to the dataset. This dataset can be useful to generate insights on the association between demographic variables, including age and gender, and personality (Big Five traits and Impulsivity/Sensation Seeking), and emotional expression as derived from social media pictures. It can be useful for researchers and data scientists who do research in social sciences, in particular , to train models in order to infer personality of users of social media platforms from profile pictures.

Sick of debt: How over-indebtedness is hampering health in rural Cambodia.

This paper evidences how many rural poor Cambodians are sick of debt. Based on original, mixed-method data (2020-2022), exploring credit provisioning in this context, the aim of this paper is to illuminate some of the conditions leading to rural Cambodians taking on debt to bolster their health, and the effects this is having on borrowers' physical, psychological, emotional and social health. Specifically, we show how the health of our participants is constrained by a range of major illnesses that many suffer from and their poor food conditions, both exacerbated by the effects of climate change.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by memory loss and neuropsychiatric symptoms associated with cerebral amyloid-β (Aβ) and tau pathologies, but whether and how these factors differentially disrupt neural circuits remains unclear. Here, we investigated the vulnerability of memory and emotional circuits to Aβ and tau pathologies in mice expressing mutant human amyloid precursor protein (APP), Tau or both APP/Tau in excitatory neurons. APP/Tau mice develop age- and sex-dependent Aβ and phosphorylated tau pathologies, the latter exacerbated at early stages, in vulnerable brain regions.

Introduction: Home care workers (HCWs) are paid caregivers who provide support to patients with chronic conditions and functional limitations. Additionally, they provide emotional support to patients and familial support. Although several qualitative studies have been conducted on HCWs, they focused more on studying prevalently the lived experiences about the workplace violence, the end of life, stressor and resilience, during the COVID-19 pandemic or focused more in dementia and heart failure, but not on feelings and working conditions.

Schizotypy is a multidimensional construct that is composed of positive, negative, and disorganized dimensions. Historically, disorganized schizotypy, which involves disruptions in thoughts, speech, behavior, and affect, has been relatively understudied and less clearly operationalized than the other dimensions. The present study employed experience sampling methodology to examine the associations of positive, negative, and disorganized schizotypy, as measured by the Multidimensional Schizotypy Scale, with daily life experiences.

Impairments in mentalizing, the capacity to understand the self and others in terms of intentional mental states, are proposed to play an important role in the emergence of borderline personality disorder (BPD) in adolescence. Although mentalizing problems in adults with BPD have been amply demonstrated, research in adolescence lags behind in terms of both the normative development of mentalizing in adolescence and the relation between different dimensions of mentalizing and adolescent BPD. Therefore, the current study investigated developmental trends and sex-related differences related to different mentalizing dimensions and the associations between mentalizing dimensions and BPD features in a large group of adolescents ( = 456, = 15.
