Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) has severe health consequences, though may be underreported due to stigma. In Tanzania, estimates of IPV prevalence range from 12 to >60%. List experiments, a technique of indirectly asking survey questions, may allow for more accurate prevalence estimates of sensitive topics. We examined list experiment and direct questions about experiences of physical and sexual IPV from a 2017 cross-sectional survey among 2,299 adults aged 40+ years in Dar es Salaam. List experiment prevalence estimates were determined through quantitative analysis and compared qualitatively to direct question prevalence estimates. The list experiment estimated a higher prevalence of IPV in all cases except for physical violence experienced by women. This study contributes to the estimation of IPV prevalence. If the list experiment estimates yield an unbiased estimate, findings suggest women openly report experiencing physical IPV, and IPV experienced by men is underreported and understudied.

Research participation effects and where to find them: a systematic review of studies on alcohol.
J Clin Epidemiol
January 2025
Department of Health, Medicine and Caring Sciences, Linköping University, Sweden.
Objective: The term 'research participation effects' (RPEs) is intended to capture features and artefacts of study design that may affect measured outcomes in ways that introduce bias into research findings, impacting inference and outcome validity. This systematic review aims to identify which RPEs have been studied in the context of alcohol research and provide an overview of estimates of RPEs on self-reported alcohol consumption.
Study Design And Setting: This systematic review summarises the available evidence on research participation effects in alcohol research.
A novel voting measure for identifying influential nodes in complex networks based on local structure.

Air Force Engineering University, Xi'an, 710038, Shaanxi, China.
Article Synopsis
- Identifying influential nodes in networks is crucial for understanding their structure and function; however, the traditional VoteRank algorithm has limitations in accuracy and tends to overlook network topology.
- This paper introduces a new algorithm called Edge Weighted VoteRank (EWV), which improves upon VoteRank by incorporating node attributes and the weight of edges, drawing inspiration from human voting behavior to better assess node attractiveness.
- The EWV algorithm not only enhances accuracy but also tackles the issue of clustering among influential nodes, demonstrating superior performance in experiments across 12 real networks compared to seven other algorithms.
Transfer of congruency effects between Stroop and multiplication tasks: Evidence that retrieval of multiplication facts requires inhibitory control.
Cognition

School of Psychology, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, United Kingdom. Electronic address:
Inhibitory control is classically considered a domain-general process, yet recent findings suggest it may operate in context-specific ways. This has important implications for theories in other cognitive domains, such as mathematics, in which inhibitory control is proposed to play a key role. Inhibitory control has been implicated in resolving interference between competing number facts when retrieving them from memory, yet clear evidence for this is lacking.

Damage mechanisms are a key factor in materials science and are essential for understanding and predicting the behavior of materials under complex loading conditions. In this paper, the influence of different directions, different rates and different model parameters on the mechanical behavior of AZ31 magnesium alloy during the tensile process is investigated based on the secondary development of the VUMAT user subroutine based on the GTN damage model and verified by the tensile experiments at different loading rates and in different directions. The results show that AZ31 magnesium alloy exhibits significant differences in mechanical properties in radial and axial stretching, where the yield strength is lower in the radial direction than in the axial direction, and the elongation is the opposite.

To extract information from NMR experiments, users need to identify the number of resonances in the spectrum, together with characteristic features such as chemical shifts and intensities. In many applications, particularly those involving biomolecules, this procedure is typically a manual and laborious process. While many algorithms are available to tackle this problem, their performance tends to be inferior to that of an experienced user.
