Authors: Kim, Byungjun; Yang, Soeun; Kim, Hana
Abstract: It is important to understand stakeholders' attitudes toward energy transition policies, or indeed toward any government proposal. Online news platforms are agoras where media and people interact, so they appear to be a rich vein for mining media and public attitudes toward energy transition. We collected online news articles and comments with the keyword “energy transition,” along with such commenters' activity histories, from the largest Korean online news aggregator during the July 2021 to July 2022 shift in the government. Utilizing advanced machine learning approaches, we examined the media's evaluation of energy transition, users' emotions regarding it, and the influence of various features on commenters' emotions and elaborations in comments. We found that intense negative emotions dominated news comments about the energy transition. However, our analysis of users' historical activities found that the commenters were a raging political crowd who expressed intense negative emotions about many social and political issues. Furthermore, our application of Catboost regression analysis demonstrates how news framing can facilitate deliberation by relieving the intensity of emotions and enhancing users' deliberation. Our findings suggest being cautious about using online news platform data to gauge media and public attitudes toward energy transition. The findings also highlight the need to use comprehensive datasets and approaches to avoid misunderstanding stakeholders' attitudes toward energy policy, as expressed in online spaces. These findings can guide future studies that use news comments to understand public attitudes toward energy transition policies or other contentious proposals.2024-04-01T00:00:00ZCommonality and variation in mental representations of music revealed by a cross-cultural comparison of rhythm priors in 15 countriesJacoby, NoriPolak, RainerGrahn, Jessica A.Cameron, Daniel J.Lee, Kyung MyunGodoy, RicardoUndurraga, Eduardo A.Huanca, TomásThalwitzer, TimonDoumbia, NoumoukéGoldberg, DanielMargulis, Elizabeth H.Wong, Patrick C.

Abstract: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Music is present in every known society but varies from place to place. What, if anything, is universal to music cognition? We measured a signature of mental representations of rhythm in 39 participant groups in 15 countries, spanning urban societies and Indigenous populations. Listeners reproduced random ‘seed’ rhythms; their reproductions were fed back as the stimulus (as in the game of ‘telephone’), such that their biases (the prior) could be estimated from the distribution of reproductions. Every tested group showed a sparse prior with peaks at integer-ratio rhythms. However, the importance of different integer ratios varied across groups, often reflecting local musical practices. Our results suggest a common feature of music cognition: discrete rhythm ‘categories’ at small-integer ratios. These discrete representations plausibly stabilize musical systems in the face of cultural transmission but interact with culture-specific traditions to yield the diversity that is evident when mental representations are probed across many cultures.</jats:p>2024-03-01T00:00:00ZThe Nineteenth Century Population Crisis and World Without Work in Morrisian UtopiaJung, Seohyonhttp://hdl.handle.net/10203/3178522024-01-16T03:00:43Z2024-01-06T00:00:00ZTitle: The Nineteenth Century Population Crisis and World Without Work in Morrisian Utopia

Authors: Yang, Soeun; Jang, Jeong-woo
Abstract: This study investigated how older adults' informational, social, and recreational motives predict their Internet use and life satisfaction. In doing so, we tested how two distinct forms of digital skills-receptive and participatory-affect the ways in which older people fulfil their needs through the Internet as well as the extent to which their Internet use leads to psychological benefits. A total of 200 Internet users in their 60s joined a face-to-face survey. As predicted, the older users' informational, social, and recreational motives predicted their corresponding Internet use and life satisfaction. In particular, participatory skills affected how the use of the Internet predicts life satisfaction, such that only those with moderate or higher participatory skills obtained mental benefits through their Internet use. Lastly, we discussed older adults' online engagement and its impacts on their well-being, with an emphasis on digital competencies.2024-01-01T00:00:00Z
