The development of a coherent identity status, also referred to as ego identity, is critical during adolescence and early-adulthood. In the long run, an individual’s ego identity status may influence the sustainability of his or her well-being....
The professional development of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) education has been converted from rigid hierarchical models to more flexible and context-sensitive frameworks. This study introduces ego-centred network card analysis as a new method...
The transition to college can be psychologically demanding. This study examines how a more mature and consolidated academic identity (AI) is related to three types of self-regulation strategies in college students during their first semester: cogniti...

Flourishing, an indicator which reflects one’s emotional status and ability to function, is an important antecedent for adolescents’ later psychological and physical development. This study aimed to shift the research focus on rural adolescents from...
This essay reconsiders the Freudian notion of the Uncanny/Unheimlich by focusing on the attempt of the ego to project and maintain a coherent and consistent view of the world and of itself—an attempt that is intrinsically subverted by the very...
Older women without children, like all older adults, evaluate their lives and face a conflict between despair and ego integrity as proposed by Erikson’s theory of development. Their uniqueness lies in their deviation from the societal norm of p...

Elevated stress levels in emotional laborers has been documented in a number of studies. To minimize the negative effects of stress, the need to examine potential protective factors has been highlighted. The primary purpose of this study was to inves...

Background: College students are known to struggle with a number of difficulties, such as their future careers and interpersonal relationships, as well as job-seeking stress. This study aimed to develop and test a structural model for undergraduate s...
States of reduced self-control described as ego depletion have been shown to impair sport task performance. Recently, self-talk has emerged as a successful method to counteract ego depletion effects in cognitive tasks. Extending this line of research...
Since the inception of the intersectionality framework by feminists over three decades ago, scholars have advanced the analysis and subsequent understanding of peoples’ social locations, identity constructions, and systems of oppression involving gen...
Is Mr. Hyde more similar to his alter ego Dr. Jekyll, because of their physical identity, or to Jack the Ripper, because both evoke fear and loathing? The relative weight of emotional and visual dimensions in similarity judgements is still unclear. W...
There are discriminatory, structured, opaque human rights violations that keep the socioeconomically vulnerable subservient, a social problem that goes against the core Christian principle: humans are created in the image of God and all share equal d...
Identity development among late adolescent university students and its relationship to family history knowledge was examined in this study. Identity development was examined using Marcia’s individual developmental framework (1988) of exploratio...
Cultural traditions in Israel’s Bedouin-Arab community encourage and permit men to take up to four wives, a practice supported by Islamic teachings. Despite legal prohibitions against polygyny in Israel, such marriages remain common and have pr...
The Bardo Thodol (bar do thos grol), commonly known in the West as The Tibetan Book of the Dead, has traditionally served as a spiritual manual guiding consciousness through the postmortem bardo (bar do) states toward liberation or rebirth. While pri...
In this paper measurements from a monocular vision system are fused with inertial/magnetic measurements from an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) rigidly connected to the camera. Two Extended Kalman filters (EKFs) were developed to estimate the pose of...

The historical roots of the concept of schizophrenia are (1) the nosographical era of constructing disease entities, leading to Kraepelin’s nosopoietic act of collecting polymorphous psychoses in two big groups: affective disorders and dementia praec...
Image disturbances caused by platform ego-motion are coupled with true target motion under the dynamic viewpoints of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), resulting in trajectory-prediction drift, association mismatches, and persistent contamination of id...
It is crucial for unmanned surface vessels (USVs) to detect and track surrounding vessels in real time to avoid collisions at sea. However, the harsh maritime environment poses great challenges to multitarget tracking (MTT). In this paper, a novel tr...

Self-reference, shame and schizophrenia. The intention of the present study was to show that shame and schizophrenia have a structural affinity. Both attack the core self and self-reference by means of negation and splitting. On the basis of Stern’s...
The known theories discussing the essence of consciousness have been recently updated. This prompts an attempt to integrate these explanations concerning several distinct components of the consciousness phenomenon such as the ego, and qualia percepti...
Multi-object tracking (MOT) in videos captured by Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is critically challenged by significant camera ego-motion, frequent occlusions, and complex object interactions. To address the limitations of conventional trackers tha...
Battery-powered sensors must sample sparingly to conserve energy while still reconstructing the signal faithfully between measurements, and the decision logic must fit microcontroller-class hardware. We use a large language model (LLM) as an offline...
Vehicle trajectory prediction on icy and snowy roads is safety-critical because reduced tyre–road adhesion compresses the set of dynamically feasible manoeuvres and can substantially increase braking distances relative to dry pavement. The obje...
Search-and-rescue (SAR) missions following earthquakes and other disasters require aerial video perception systems that do more than detect objects in isolated frames. Operators must maintain the identities of access points, vehicles, responders, haz...
