Rights - Science topic

What basis exists for classifying labor rights within human rights law? Is there any source categorizing labor rights into two groups: rights arising from employment and rights dependent on work?"

why in mass spectrometry, The numbers to the right of the dot in the calculated and found m/z values of the synthesized compounds are different from each other.

Hi, I am looking into emotional and psychological pain in football players and was wondering if anyone knows of questionnaire specifically for this. if you've come across something useful, i would really appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction?

When we tried to take powder XRD for a reported material why we observe the peaks are either left or right shifted when compared to the PDF5+ database?

Hello Dears,

I use ferrous sulfate as a chromium reducer. As we know from the chemical reaction equation 3 mol Ferrous reacts with 1 mol of cr(vi) which means 3.22 mg ferrous reacts with 1 mg of cr(vi), am I right ?. the sample contains 5.28 ppm cr(vi), how much reducer(by mass ) should be added to 1 kg of sample to reduce the amount of cr(vi) by 1 ppm ??

suppose the purity of the reducer is 100%.

So I am doing an analysis of the Four Factors created by Dean Oliver which are important metrics for basketball teams to control if they want to win basketball games. Essentially I wanted to test if the weights that are often mentioned alongside the Factors are the same as when he estimated them in the early 2000's. The issue is he doesn't really explain how he got them and states that he used what I assume is a proprietary program he created called "Roboscout" to calculate them without giving any explanation for how he got them.

Given this I just decided to do what seemed to make the most sense to me which is using the four factors (both offensively and defensively) as the predictors for a glm with a binomial regression of wins and losses using statistics for each team since the introduction of the three point line. This worked well and I got great results where each predictor had a vif below 2, the model I predicted to be best in each of my datasets was the lowest aic and bic by between 20 and 250, there was no multicollinearity or overfitting and my assumption proved right in that the shooting factor became more important in recent years.

My issue is I think it is important in my paper to explain how much of the variance is explained by my independent variables. Obviously I can't just use R-squared because it is a logistic regression but I have only used pseudo R-squared in very minimal capacities and don't really know how to pick the right pseudo R-squared for my analysis. I read this article (https://stats.oarc.ucla.edu/other/mult-pkg/faq/general/faq-what-are-pseudo-r-squareds/) by UCLA and that provided me with 4 options, Efron’s, McFadden’s, McFadden’s (adjusted), and McKelvey & Zavoina pseudo R-squareds, but I don't know what is best or what I should use. I have found some places saying that McFadden's is really popular and is commonly used in logistic regression. Is it popular because it is really good or just popular? Should I use the adjusted Mcfadden's or not bother with it because I only have 8 ind. variables? Also I am not doing model comparison, I already did that in my paper using AIC and BIC and got really clear results to that point that it made me worry about overfitting and multicollinearity though I did tests for both and got good results. Am I overthinking this and it doesn't even matter that much?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cognitive researchers and psychologists, how do you handle studies from 30+ years ago that don’t meet today’s research standards? Like: “We tested 7 participants over 20 trials; here are the stats.” Studies like that wouldn’t pass peer review today. Do we dismiss them entirely as outdated or irrelevant? Ignoring them feels like erasing history, but citing them in a literature review feels like lending them undue credibility. How do you strike the right balance?

Dear colleagues,

I'll have to work with lung epithelial BEAS-2B cells and I need a help from experienced persons.

I compared protocols from SigmaAldrich and ATCC and there are still some points to clarify.

1. What is the full medium for growing BEAS-2B?

2. If I order Airway Epithelial Cell Basal Medium (PCS-300-030) and Bronchial Epithelial Cell Growth Kit (PCS-300-040) from ATCC, should I just mix them to use as cell culture medium?

2a. Do I understand right that in this case I have to buy BEBM/BEGM as well for flasks pre-treatment?

3. What is the difference between BEBM and BEGM? Are they interchangable as media for BEAS-2B cells?

4. What should I supplement BEBM/BEGM with?

5. What concentration of BSA is used to pre-coat the flasks? SigmaAldrich specifies 0.001 mg/ml and ATCC 0.01 mg/mL.

Thank you very much for your responses!

I have received several emails from ResearchGate recently with people requesting copies of a paper of mine. However, when I click on the link to 'View Requests' I get taken to the right page but there is no sign of the requests waiting to be filled. Why?

I have total 12 lakh records dataset. From that i have taken 100000 records. From these 1 lakh records I have taken 10k records as test set and from remaining 90k i have created 9 batches each consists of 10k records. out of these 10k 9k i m using for training and 1k i m using for validation records, which eventually i will use for parameter tuning. after performing parameter tuning on each validation set from each of the 9 batches , I m testing on test dataset of 10k records. after that i m using best parameters to train full dataset. then original 12lakh records i m dividing into 80% training and 20% test ratio. after training on full dataset , i m testing my model on 20% of the test data. so what i m doing here, is it right approach?

In a bustling academic environment where research and publication held the keys to career advancement, Anna, a dedicated researcher with a deep passion for maternal experiences, shared her paper The Veil of Motherhood: A Personal Reflection with a close-knit group of colleagues. The work, a heartfelt exploration of her journey through motherhood, was born out of personal struggle and triumph, filled with emotional depth and authenticity.

As she presented her findings, her peers listened with interest. Among them was Mark, an academic with only a few publications under his belt. Mark was under intense pressure from his superiors to increase his publication record, and he desperately needed one more published paper to secure his next promotion. His own projects were stuck in review limbo, and his career ambitions were growing increasingly urgent.

Casually, Mark approached Anna after the presentation. “Why don’t we add my name as a co-author on this paper? It would help with the journal acceptance, and we can both benefit from the publication.”

Anna hesitated, her unease palpable. “But Mark, this is a personal reflection. You’ve never experienced motherhood. How would your name on the paper be justified? You haven’t contributed to this work.”

Mark, sensing an opportunity he could not afford to miss, brushed aside her concerns. “Look, it’s just the way academia works. A co-authorship with me could boost the paper’s credibility and visibility. It’ll increase its chances of getting published. Everyone does it, Anna—it’s all about getting the work out there.”

The pressure of Mark’s persistence, coupled with her own self-doubt, weighed on Anna. She knew how the academic world worked—publications mattered, and prestige often lay in who you collaborated with. But still, a knot of discomfort tightened in her chest. Against her better judgment, and swayed by Mark’s relentless arguments, Anna reluctantly agreed to let him be listed as a co-author, even though he hadn’t contributed anything to the work.

As the weeks passed, Anna’s unease grew. She felt guilty and conflicted about the decision. The paper was deeply personal to her, a raw exploration of her journey through motherhood. Mark’s name on the paper felt like a betrayal of its authenticity, yet the academic pressure to publish remained strong.

When the paper was finally published, Mark was thrilled. His name, prominently displayed next to Anna’s, now adorned yet another journal article. The publication was praised, especially in academic circles, for its “interdisciplinary relevance.” But Anna’s original voice—her emotional, lived experience—was overshadowed by the presence of a co-author who had nothing to do with the work.

Mark, eager to capitalize on the publication, began presenting the paper at conferences, taking credit for its success and speaking as though he had an equal stake in its creation. He talked about motherhood as if he were an authority, distorting the narrative even further. Anna watched helplessly as her deeply personal narrative was co-opted for Mark’s gain.

One evening, while attending a conference, Anna overheard a conversation between two colleagues. “That paper on motherhood was interesting,” one of them said, “but it’s odd that a man, who has never been a parent, co-authored such a deeply personal reflection. It felt… out of place.”

The comment hit Anna like a punch in the gut. She had known from the start that it wasn’t right for Mark to be involved in this paper. His presence as a co-author was about his academic advancement, not about enhancing her work. Her own doubts had been right all along, but she had allowed herself to be swayed by the pressures of academia.

Determined to confront the situation, Anna arranged a meeting with Mark. “You’ve been presenting my experiences as though they’re your own,” she said, her voice trembling. “I let you co-author this paper because I trusted you. But this was my story, not yours. You didn’t contribute anything, and now you’re overshadowing my voice for the sake of your career.”

Mark, unbothered, waved her off. “Anna, I added credibility to the paper. It got published, didn’t it? You should be thankful we collaborated. You’re getting attention, and that’s what matters.”

But Anna wasn’t thankful. She was heartbroken, knowing she had allowed her deeply personal narrative to be compromised. The paper, now indexed and permanent, would always serve as a reminder of what she had lost—her authentic voice, buried beneath someone else’s ambitions.

In the weeks that followed, Anna reflected deeply on the ethical breach that had occurred. She realized that Mark’s desperation for promotion had led him to take advantage of her vulnerability and her need for validation in the academic world. This was not just about academic credit—it was about integrity, about respecting personal stories and the lived experiences of others.

When the paper was published, it became permanently indexed, and the issue became even more glaring—Mark, as a man, could never truly understand or experience motherhood, yet his name was now tied to a deeply personal reflection on it. His inclusion felt out of place and undermined the authenticity of Anna’s narrative, leaving her to face the consequences of an unethical co-authorship for all to see.

Determined to turn the painful experience into something meaningful, Anna wrote a new article, this time solely under her name: The Ethics of Authorship: Protecting Personal Narratives in Academia. In it, she outlined her ordeal with Mark, emphasizing the dangers of allowing those without contributions to co-author personal research for their own gain. The article was a rallying cry for academics to consider the ethical implications of co-authorship, especially in sensitive areas like motherhood, trauma, and grief.

The response was overwhelming. Academics, particularly women, reached out to share their own stories of having their voices overshadowed in collaborative work. Anna’s article sparked discussions across institutions about the ethics of co-authorship and the need for stricter guidelines when dealing with personal and sensitive research topics.

Though the original paper remained, a permanent reminder of her compromise, Anna knew she had at least reclaimed her voice through her follow-up work. She vowed never again to let her personal narrative be distorted by the ambitions of others, no matter how reputable or influential they might be.

In the end, Anna learned that co-authorship was not just about sharing credit—it was about sharing responsibility for the truth. She would never again allow someone else’s need for advancement to overshadow the authenticity of her voice.

Would it be possible to think that if there is a categorization regarding fundamental rights, the state should, in the same way, prioritize the budget, ensuring that the rights higher in the prioritization receive more resources? That is, why allow the state to allocate more resources to a policy that has to do with the disappearance of some autonomous organizations, regarding policies, infrastructure, projects that help minimize water waste, support the purchase of medicines? against cancer, among others. Wouldn't it be desirable to modify the way resources are allocated today?

Hello,

I want to check if the stroke location changed my outcome variable only for right vs left vs both hemispheres.

I want to have a regression analyze with the categorical predictor, which is the location, but I was thinking as I have more than three groups, and I want to check only right vs left vs both hemispheres

What should I do with the other groups? I meant how to treat with them.

I was thinking to put the other category under one category named others? this way I would have 4 categories, but only interpret the results for right vs left vs both and the reference group would be one of the right or left or both not the other group, am I right?

here is the categories:

right hemisphere

left hemisphere

both hemispheres

brainstem

cerebellum,

brainstem or cerebellum

both supra-infra-tentorial structures

or will be better thought?

In 1879, French revolutionaries coined three large words to delimit and define a spirit that they wanted to fix and render unassailable. These key words are rethought, recast, decontextualised and recontextualised in innumerable ways, but they are often said to define something like fundamental (as maybe opposed to transient?) values. One sees that cascade of values in the deployment of these words everywhere in France. They feature in the French Constitution, right up to the charters that explain secularism as a universal desideratum n schools.

Yet, as values theorists often observe, the process of fixing things is actually very hard. Here in France, French State TV humorously but tellingly, recasts the three words as (in French of course) Liberty, Equality and NEWS; just a bit if levity, but viewed by millions with resonance. The past days have added another iteration of the revolutionary deontology, I think. At the opening Olympic ceremony with its own 'motto', some fascinating new themes including rights like a Right to Offend were generated. So:, it seems to me that deontology is often a locus for great creativity and equally great contest. The Olympic ceremony generated heat and love in equal measure from the Paris mayor to the Republican candidate for US President.

Given all of this, my question is simple: are there developed approaches to understanding instruments of deontology as a unity, evaluating how that network of many deontologies develops over time?

Dear all,

I'm learning and taking the same genotyping PCR experiments and want to get / share some advice or experience on obtaining the right bands for the data.

I ran 3 samples of Stra8-iCre and 2 out 3 samples were not wild type, which was different genotype compared to the actual data from our laboratory and all of them were supposed to be wild type.

There was no contamination nor mistakes on performance of the protocol and I also regulated annealing temperature into 58 or 60 degrees Celcius for this whole times.

I wonder how can I get the right bands for Stra8-iCre and what was I missing except for the accuracy of the protocol and regulation of the temperature.

i am facing the difficulty to find the right and latest topic for my thesis. i searched and read hundreds of articles but i couldn't find the right one. what can i do I'm really confused.

Good day,

I am a student trying to work on Autodock for a project regarding Ligand-DNA interaction so i am quite new to molecular docking. i have followed tutorials and did all the steps recommended for the docking to work with PDBQT files for both the ligand and DNA, but every time i run AutoGrid the window for the process opens for less than 1 second and then shuts down immediately with no output file. i made sure the previous steps were working correctly and to open the ligand and DNA files in their respective input category and the paths for each part in the run window right before the launch have no spaces and are correct. Same problem happens with Autodock.

Does anyone know if there is a fix for this problem?

Thank you in advance.

Most times, we are instructed by editors (that is journal policies) not submit our papers in more than one journal at a time. But there is evidence that some journals (editors) can keep your paper for months and even years before even acknowledging the receipt of your submission. Some can take years to decide whether to reject or accept your paper. In these instances, what should an author do? What about the lost time? I want to really know if we have a right here, and even in the process of publication.

I have images of film formed on the bottom of a 50mL beaker, and I have been trying to figure out the surface area. I could easily use features on imageJ to do that, but I want to know which area is covered by the film and which is not covered. I have explored the threshold feature, and I think either I am not doing it correctly or I am not very certain what I am doing is right. Is there anything I can do or process to follow to accurately know the covered area and determine the surface area based on that? I have attached images of the empty beaker and the beaker with the film. Thank you.

I routinely see requests under the questions category for particular PDF patterns. What is behind that? Do these researchers not have access to the database for themselves?

Many if not most compounds have more than one card for them. Different sources, different preparations lead to slightly different patterns. Maybe it is in the peak positions or relative intensities. Some samples may have included a second phase. Some records have more information than others.

Therefore, it seems that they should be matching your sample to the available patterns and citing the one that best fits. I don't think they should be citing a particular card just because that it what someone else referenced in their paper. They may not have it right. (I have seen that error before.)

I find it odd, for example, when I hear in the news that a parent forgives someone who intentionally caused severe injuries to their child. It seems to me that only the child has the right to forgive in such a situation.

Addendum: Let me also add for consideration the more extreme case of the parent or spouse of a murder victim forgiving the murderer. Although the state may have the right to pardon the perpetrator at some point, that is different from forgiveness, and it seems to me that no one has the right to forgive the perpetrator for the murder itself. To suggest otherwise would be tantamount to regarding the victim as property of which one has been deprived. It would be tantamount to forgiving someone for stealing and totalling your car.

Hey everyone,

In my sample preparation of protein sample I am using simultaneous TCEP and CAA for a reduction and alkylation in one step.

Using DTT and CAA a simultaneous reduction and alkylation is not possible - the DTT and the CAA will react with each other (right?) and the disulfide bridges are still there.

Now my question - Why DTT and CAA react with each other, but TCEP and CAA not? Why is this simultaneous reduction and alkylation possible? What are the differences?

I know..

- TCEP reacts with the free electron pair of the phosphorus

- thiol of DTT gets rid of a proton and the sulfur anion reacts

- both reactions are nucleophillic attacks

Thanks!
