Traditionally, election polls have asked for participants’ own voting intentions. In Nature HumanBehaviour, we reported that we could improve predictions of the 2016 US and 2017 Frenchpresidential elections by asking participants how they thought their social circles would vote. Apotential concern is that the social circle question might predict less well in elections with largernumbers of political options, because it becomes harder to keep track of how social contacts planto vote. However, we have now found that the social circle question even performs better thanthe own intention question, in predictions of two elections with many political parties: The Netherlands’2017 general election and the Swedish 2018 general election.

El erotismo ha sido siempre una constante en la producción literaria de Marcel Prévost. Una sutil exaltación física del deseo que el escritor parisino proyectaba en la narrativa de aquellas escenas y situaciones que recreaba en sus textos. En muchas de ellas, la cama será el centro neurálgico de esa amatoria, generada o contenida, alrededor de la cual las mujeres burguesas tamizaban su existencia en el círculo social al que pertenecían. A lo largo del presente estudio profundizaremos en los significados de la cama, yendo desde la sacralidad del lecho conyugal a los camastros improvisados en lugares ocultos para consumar la infidelidad, concibiéndose este mueble de sueño y ensueño como dual representación física de libertad y sujeción entre los individuos. Abstract: Despite not being recognised by the literary critics as an erotic writer, Marcel Prévost frequently invokes the heightening of passionate love and the scenes which depict it. In many of them, the bed was the nexus of that ars amatoria, created or contained, around which Bourgeois ladies sifted their existence within the social circle they inhabited. This paper examines in depth the meanings of the bed, from a sacrosanct marital space to a clandestine mise-en-scene to consummate adulterous liaisons, approaching this piece of furniture, created for sleep and dreams, as a dual physical representation of freedom and subjection between individuals.

Social circles, groups, lists, etc. are functionalities that allow users of online social network (OSN) platforms to manually organize their social media contacts. However, this facility provided by OSNs has not received appreciation from users due to the tedious nature of the task of organizing the ones that are only contacted periodically. In view of the numerous benefits of this functionality, it may be advantageous to investigate measures that lead to enhancements in its efficacy by allowing for automatic creation of customized groups of users (social circles, groups, lists, etc). The field of study for this purpose, i.e. creating coarse-grained descriptions from data, consists of two families of techniques, community discovery and clustering. These approaches are infeasible for the purpose of automation of social circle creation as they fail on social networks. A reason for this failure could be lack of knowledge of the global structure of the social network or the sparsity that exists in data from social networking websites. As individuals do in real life, OSN clients dependably attempt to broaden their groups of contacts in order to fulfill different social demands. This means that ‘homophily’ would exist among OSN users and prove useful in the task of social circle detection. Based on this intuition, the current inquiry is focused on understanding ‘homophily’ and its role in the process of social circle formation. Extensive experiments are performed on egocentric networks (ego is user, alters are friends) extracted from prominent OSNs like Facebook, Twitter, and Google+. The results of these experiments are used to propose a unified framework: feature extraction for social circles discovery (FESC). FESC detects social circles by jointly modeling ego-net topology and attributes of alters. The performance of FESC is compared with standard benchmark frameworks using metrics like edit distance, modularity, and running time to highlight its efficacy.

The article considers the stable ideas of the significant part of the Moscow students when assessing personal qualities typical for the Russian youth. The study presented in the report of the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation in 2011 identified a high level of the youth’s criticism when assessing one’s generation and emphasizing its egoism and irresponsibility. In the surveys conducted in the Moscow University for Humanities in 2011-2019, a part of the same questionnaire was used to assess the qualities of the contemporary Russian youth, and the results were the same. In the ranking of such qualities in 2019, the first 10 positions were taken by laziness, selfishness, sociability, irresponsibility, aggressiveness, independence, indifference, optimism, naivety and cynicism, i.e. together with positive features there are qualities traditionally considered in the Russian society as unacceptable. The last 10 positions were taken by openness, kindness, pushfulness, initiative, greed, rationalism, responsibility, honesty, patriotism and conscientiousness. Thus, the highly appreciated by the society moral qualities are presented in the students’ estimates as not typical for the youth. The additional open questions clarifying the value orientations of students in terms of their estimates of such attitudes of people in the past, present and future showed that in older generations and one’s social circle the student youth appreciate the most the socially valued qualities and want their children in the future to have such. The ranking of such qualities starts with honesty, kindness, responsibility, purposefulness, openness, sociability, sincerity, responsiveness, punctuality and goodwill. The contradictions between the estimates of the youth qualities and the expected qualities of one’s social circle have been repeatedly confirmed at the empirical level. However, this is not a feature of the student youth but rather a result of the social anomie in the sphere of value orientations in the transition period. The authors believe that the transformation trend of students’ value orientations towards individualism is stable but not typical for the youth in general.

In this article, we have substantiated the function of appeals in the letters of Lesya Ukrainka. We have studied the outgoing correspondence to Olga Kobylyanskaya. We analyzed the psycholinguistic orientation of appeals, conditions and factors of influence on the formation of linguistic products. We decoded the psychological meanings of the addresses and we interpreted the emotional saturation of specific units. It is a fact: writing is a fundamental unit of the epistolary text, within the framework of which the real traditions and relationships of correspondents are deciphered and interpreted. The formation of appeals, their appearance, emotional saturation is influenced by the personal and internal vicissitudes of the participants in communication and the social language environment. The issue of the peculiarities of the functioning of appeals in the letters of Lesya Ukrainka through multi-vector prisms is highlighted in the works of many linguists, in particular in the editions of S. Bogdan (semantic-syntactic, linguocultural, psycholinguistic and other aspects).), G. Arkulishin (lexical and semantic aspect), N. Zhuravleva (individual author's and one-time awards), etc. The purpose and objectives of the study is to identify and analyze the texts of personal outgoing correspondence of Lesya Ukrainka, in particular, correspondence with Olga Kobylyanskaya, to determine the psycholinguistic characteristics of the appeals in these letters and to study the emotional and expressive nature of linguistic neoplasms. Special attention is paid to appeals, expressed in a variety of ways, in which the conotativity and expressiveness of semantic linguistic units are encoded. In the letters of Lesya Ukrainka, a more intimate mood of communication is activated, expressed, in particular, in the existence of diminutive-affectionate and psychologically deep ones in the epistolary. The psychology of the ethnos is realized in the epistolary text through the use of well-grounded adjectives that give the language of writing a kind of folk song, folklore coloring. The etymological analysis of Olga Kobylyanskaya's references helps to create a complex psychological portrait of the addressee. So, great importance in the formation of opinions and the formation of thinking of Lesya Ukrainka is played by his education, social circle, interests, desires, activities and psychological organization.

Cousin marriage is considered to be a cause of viral diseases in the societies where it is in practice. This study focuses on the practice of cousin marriage in the light of islam and medical science. Various holy texts regarding Maharim, non-Maharim and marriage were studied in detail. Analyses of the studies about diseases that are counted with consanguineous marriages were carried out. It was observed that there are a number of rare disorders described in medical science linked with cousin marriages. Islam taking into account this drawback in cousin marriage encourages marriages outside the family. Islam has not forbidden cousin marriages at all. However Islam has encouraged marriage outside the family to widen the social circle. Research in medical science has proved that marriages in the same family are responsible for causing various diseases.

Whistle-Binkie is a collection of poetry and song, continually reissued in different formats and with new content throughout the nineteenth century, which has often been considered to exemplify the problems with popular Scottish Victorian literature. This chapter therefore concentrates on reassessing this key text and demonstrating that it is not purely a sentimental, nostalgic, and conservative selection of verse. The chapter shows how the first edition of Whistle-Binkie was part of the culture of Reform politics, and how its radical bent was toned down in later decades. It uses unpublished manuscript material to discuss the importance of Whistle-Binkie in encouraging working-class poets into print and fostering networks between them. A long concluding session focuses on the Whistle-Binkie spin-off, Songs from the Nursery, and assesses how and why ‘nursery verse’ became so important to Scottish working-class poetics in this period.
