Set-Word Embeddings and Semantic Indices: A New Contextual Model for Empirical Language Analysis by Pedro Fernández de Córdoba, Carlos A. Reyes Pérez, Claudia Sánchez Arnau, Enrique A. Sánchez Pérez

“…We formally define all necessary elements and prove the main results about the model, including a compatibility theorem for estimating the representability of semantically meaningful external terms in the model (which are written as real Lipschitz functions in the metric space), proving the relation between the semantic index and the metric of the space (Theorem 1). …”

A generic model for vocationally oriented public relations education in globalised contexts by Elizabeth Ferreira

“…The model is based on a literature study that pointed out that the public relations profession is both affected by the forces of globalisation, and it has the potential to play a role in the management of globalisation towards a constructive outcome. The model consists of a recommended curriculum and recommendations pertaining to the functioning of public relations education departments in the context of globalisation. …”

Spatiotemporal distribution of rural multifunctionality and its influencing factors: a case study of the Liaoning Coastal Economic Belt, China by Yu Chen, Jun Wang

“…In this study, 30 counties in the Liaoning Coastal Economic Zone were taken as the research area, and the years 2000, 2013, and 2023 were selected as the research time nodes. This study constructed the RMF index from the living function, production function, and ecological function and systematically analyzed and depicted the spatiotemporal distribution process of rural functions using trend surface analysis and exploratory spatial data analysis. …”

Illness (self) management, clinical and functional recovery as determinants of personal recovery in people with severe mental illnesses: A mediation analysis. by Bert-Jan Roosenschoon, Mathijs L Deen, Jaap van Weeghel, Astrid M Kamperman, Cornelis L Mulder

“…As inferential tests to determine the significance of the indirect paths, confidence intervals were constructed using bootstrap techniques. The results showed that the improvement in overall illness management was directly associated with improvements in personal recovery (B = .30), and indirectly through improvements in clinical recovery (indirect effect = .13) and functional recovery (indirect effect = .08). …”
