Men’s internet sex addiction predicts sexual objectification of women even after taking pornography consumption frequency into account by Pavla Novakova, Edita Chvojka, Anna Ševčíková, Lukas Blinka, Paul Wright, Steven Kane

“…Such users may, in response to internet sex addiction symptoms such as craving, have increased levels of sexual objectification.MethodsIn a sample of 1,272 male consumers of online video pornography (Mage = 32.93, SDage = 9.44), we examined whether internet sex addiction is linked to sexual objectification via an online survey.ResultsWe fitted a series of structural equation models and found that men who scored higher on internet sex addiction were more likely to objectify women. …”

Quantifying impacts of two ENSO patterns on South China sea summer monsoon onset by Lianyi Zhang, Junshu Lin, Zesheng Chen, Yanping Shi, Yan Du

“…Here, using a novel statistical metric, binary combined linear regression, we find a dominant role of the CP pattern rather than the EP pattern, as a moderate CP El Niño/La Niña tends to cause SCSSM onset delay/advance by around 4.7/5.1 days in its decaying year. The anomalous SST structure of CP El Niño leads to persistent anomalous anti-cyclonic winds over the western North Pacific from April to June, suppressing the local convection and impeding the SCSSM winds. …”
