COVID-19 data is often presented using graphs with either a linear or logarithmic scale. Given the importance of this information, understanding how choice of scale changes interpretations is critical. To test this, we presented laypeople with the same data plotted using differing scales. We found that graphs with a logarithmic, as opposed to linear, scale resulted in laypeople making less accurate predictions of growth, viewing COVID-19 as less dangerous, and expressing both less support for policy interventions and less intention to take personal actions to combat COVID-19. Education reduces, but does not eliminate these effects. These results suggest that public communications should use logarithmic graphs only when necessary, and such graphs should be presented alongside education and linear graphs of the same data whenever possible.


A few decades ago, topologists had already emphasized the difference between homotopy and isotopy. However, recent developments in algebraic topology are almost exclusively on the side of homotopy. Since a complete system of homotopy invariants has been obtained by Postnikov, it seems that hereafter we should pay more attention to isotopy invariants and new efforts should be made to attack the classical problems. The purpose of this paper is to introduce and study new algebraic isotopy invariants of spaces. A general method of constructing these invariants is given by means of a class of functors called isotopy functors. Special isotopy functors are constructed in this paper, namely, the m th residual functor R m and the m th. enveloping functor E m . Applications of these isotopy invariants to linear graphs are given in the last two sections. It turns out that these invariants can distinguish various spaces belonging to the same homotopy type.

This paper proposes the use of a preliminary, phenol removal step to reduce peak loads arriving at a conventional effluent plant. A packed bed reactor (PBR) using polyurethane foam, porous glass and also cocoa fibres as the inert support material was used. Experiments have been carried out where the flow-rates, plus inlet and outlet phenol concentrations were measured. A simple, plug-flow model is proposed to represent the results. Zero, first order, Monod and inhibited kinetics rate equations were evaluated. It was found that the Monod model gave the best fit to the experimental data and allowed linear graphs to be plotted. The Monod saturation constant, K, is approximately 50 g m-3, and ka is around 900 s-1.
