Abstract. Physical exercise when done excessively may have negative consequences on physical and psychological wellbeing. There exist many scales to measure this phenomenon. The purpose of this article is to create a scale measuring the problematic practice of physical exercise (PPPE Scale) by combining two assessment tools already existing in the field of exercise dependency but anchored in different approaches (EDS-R and EDQ). This research consists of three studies carried out on three independent sample populations. The first study (N = 341) tested the construct validity (exploratory factor analysis); the second study (N = 195) tested the structural validity (confirmatory factor analysis) and the third study (N = 104) tested the convergent validity (correlations) of the preliminary version of the PPPE scale. Exploratory factor analysis identified six distinct dimensions associated with exercise dependency. Furthermore, confirmatory factor analysis validated a second order model consisting of 25 items with six dimensions and four sub-dimensions. The convergent validity of this scale with other constructs (GLTEQ, EAT26, and The Big Five Inventory [BFI]) is satisfactory. The preliminary version of the PPPE must be administered to a large population to refine its psychometric properties and develop scoring norms.

AbstractRecently, cryptographic literature has seen new block cipher designs such as , or that aim to be more lightweight than the current standard, i.e., . Even though family of block ciphers were designed two decades ago, they still remain as the de facto encryption standard, with being the most widely deployed variant. In this work, we revisit the combined one-in-all implementation of the family, namely both encryption and decryption of each as a single ASIC circuit. A preliminary version appeared in Africacrypt 2019 by Balli and Banik, where the authors design a byte-serial circuit with such functionality. We improve on their work by reducing the size of the compact circuit to 2268 GE through 1-bit-serial implementation, which achieves 38% reduction in area. We also report stand-alone bit-serial versions of the circuit, targeting only a subset of modes and versions, e.g., and . Our results imply that, in terms of area, and can easily compete with the larger members of recently designed family, e.g., , . Thus, our implementations can be used interchangeably inside authenticated encryption candidates such as , or in place of .

Background: Despite the availability of evidence-based treatments for depression, large gaps exist between empirical research and clinical practice. Aims: To make preliminary steps toward the dissemination of Behavioural Activation (BA) via online training by examining clinicians’ interest in learning BA via online training and the effects of a preliminary version of BA online training. Method: In study 1, practising clinicians (n = 540) completed a survey that assessed attitudes towards learning BA using an online training format. In study 2, we conducted a small, pilot randomized controlled trial (n = 46) to examine preliminary efficacy of teaching BA principles and treatment strategies with a precursor version of BA online training. Results: Study findings suggest that clinicians have interest in learning about BA via online training and that clinicians participating in BA online training evidence high satisfaction and significant gains in self-efficacy using BA and knowledge of BA terms and concepts. Conclusions: These results support the importance of efforts to disseminate BA and the viability of online training as an easily accessible and affordable training option.
