The Weight of the Number: Perceptions and Practices Surrounding Expected Body Weight Disclosure in Eating Disorder Treatment

ABSTRACT Objective Expected body weight (EBW) determination is common in eating disorder (ED) treatment, yet no evidence‐based guidelines exist for how to discuss EBWs with patients. Clinicians have previously conceptualized these discussions as therapeutic exposures targeting fe...

The Hindsight-Selection Trap: Why a Backtest Can Pass Every Standard Robustness Check and Still Be Untradeable

We report a systematic, pre-registered-style search for tradeable short-horizon equity signals on theSingapore Exchange (SGX), covering 32 candidate strategies across two structurally differentfamilies: intraday VWAP-deviation reversion, and a set of causally-defineddaily/announc...

Rethinking the Gift in Diplomacy: Generative Relational Knowledge Emergence through Encounter

A gift asserts nothing that could be checked. It carries no proposition whose truth is at issue, and it discloses no procedure by which a content might be substantiated. It nonetheless does something that statements do poorly, and this paper asks what. The account offered is that...

The Palimpsests of Sinai: Christological Readings in Christian Palestinian Aramaic Gospel Fragments

The palimpsests preserved at St Catherine’s Monastery on Mount Sinai contain an important body of erased Christian Palestinian Aramaic Gospel material. Recovered through modern multispectral imaging, these fragments provide evidence for both the history of biblical translation an...

Selective recovery of cesium and cobalt ions using an inorganic ion exchanger: Batch, column studies, and cementitious immobilization

Radionuclides such as Co2+ and Cs+ are commonly present in liquid effluents generated from nuclear facilities, and their efficient removal is essential for minimizing environmental contamination and radiation hazards. In this study, a barium zirconium phosphate (BZP) inorganic so...

The Network Model of Relational Superposition： An Intuitive Thinking Tool

This paper proposes a visual thinking tool—the "Network Model of Relational Superposition"—for intuitively understanding the abstract concept of "relational superposition." The core metaphor of the model is a network: a single-layer network is sparse, fragile, and easily penetrat...

Viazovska's Modular Form Proof of Optimal Sphere Packing in 8D and 24D — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Viazovska's proof of optimal sphere packing in 8D uses modular forms and the E8 root system to achieve the maximal kissing number of 240, with the Leech lattice extending this to 24D. MATH: - Kissing number in 8D: 240 (equal to number of roots in E8 root system). - Spher...

Digitally 'Living' Preservation of Endangered Cultural Soundscapes: From Sampling and Spatial Audio Reconstruction to Interactive Narrative Design

Under the dual pressures of global cultural homogenization and intergenerational transmission rupture, endangered cultural soundscapes are disappearing at an unprecedented rate. Living sonic texts—such as ritual songs, oral dialects, and festival acoustics—that carry collective m...

Grounding Quantum-Geometry Dynamics: A Program for the Empirical Derivation of the Framework's Fundamental Constants

Quantum-Geometry Dynamics (QGD) is an axiomatic framework for physics built from two axioms: that space is constituted by discrete fundamental volumetric units called preons(−), and that matter is constituted by kinetic preons(+) each carrying constant intrinsic momentum c̃. From...

Dissipative Quantum Gravity: Microscopic State Counting and Bekenstein-Hawking Entropy from Non-Hermitian Quantum Geometry

Precise identification of microscopic states at event horizons clarifies the black hole information paradox. Dissipative Quantum Gravity (DQG) establishes a 2D non-Hermitian pseudospin-1/2 Chern insulator boundary lattice directly at the horizon screen. An open-system Lindblad di...

Does Political Decoupling Through Fair Market Privatization Improve Managerial and Political Outcomes? Insights From Water Utility Sales

ABSTRACT Many U.S. municipalities face environmental service delivery challenges, including aging infrastructure and rising debt. In response, several states have adopted Fair Market Value (FMV) legislation, which aims to incentivize private firms to acquire and invest in municip...

Plimpton 322: Old Babylonian Exact-Ratio Trigonometry Before Angles — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Plimpton 322 is an Old Babylonian table of 15 rows of Pythagorean triples, likely representing a primitive form of trigonometry based on exact ratios rather than angles. MATH: The tablet lists pairs of numbers (a, c) from Pythagorean triples (a, b, c) with a² + b² = c²....

Engineering the Degradation Profile and Mechanical Performance of Polyethylene Fibers via Polylactic Acid Blending

This study investigates the structure-property-degradation relationships of melt-spun polyethylene/polylactic acid (PE/PLA) blend-fibers, addressing the knowledge gap regarding the biodegradation mechanisms of oriented fiber morphologies compared with bulk films. PE/PLA fibers wi...

Academic Hypothesis Report: Revolutionizing Life Sciences and Medical Detection via SRE-Based Bidirectional Communication

This report proposes a disruptive framework rooted in “Status-Relational Entropy (SRE) Dynamics”, redefining physical reality as a macroscopic emergence of informational statistics to bypass traditional biochemical "black-box" experimentation. We hypothesize that biological entit...

Weak Vishik Equivalence and Linear $2$-Basis Blindness for Totally Singular Quadratic Forms

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic two, put $k=K^2$, and let $U\subset K$ be the value space of an anisotropic totally singular quadratic form. For $a\in K\setminus k$, the anisotropic dimension after the one-step extension $K(\sqrt a)/K$ is $\oneprofile_U(a)=\dim_{k(a)}k(a)U=\...

Frozen Brain-MRI Foundation Models Are Site Fingerprints

Frozen foundation-model (FM) embeddings are increasingly used as off-the-shelf brain-MRI representations, on theassumption that they capture anatomy. We audit what they actually encode and find that acquisition site is a large,intrinsic component of the representation. Across two...
