Attachment and Relational Regulation in Esports Psychology: Understanding Performance in Digital Environments
(Springer Nature, 2026) Balıkçı, Elif
Esports has emerged as a rapidly professionalizing performance domain characterized by high cognitive demands, continuous social evaluation, and digitally mediated interaction. While research has largely focused on attentional, motor, and decision-making processes, the relational and regulatory dimensions of esports remain underexplored. Drawing on attachment theory, this chapter conceptualizes esports as a hybrid relational environment in which stress, evaluation, and mediated proximity simultaneously activate internal regulatory systems. It argues that digital communication channels may function as forms of secure base and safe haven, reorganizing attachment processes within technologically mediated contexts. Differences in attachment anxiety and avoidance are discussed in relation to performance stress, feedback sensitivity, team coordination, and long-term well-being. By moving beyond a purely cognitive account of esports performance, this chapter highlights the importance of relational regulation and psychosocial dynamics in sustaining high-level competitive play. Attachment theory is proposed as a holistic framework for understanding how players navigate threat, belonging, and exploration in the digital age. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2026.
Assessment of Surface Roughness and Bacterial Adhesion of Occlusal Splints Fabricated with Different Layer Thicknesses, Polishing Techniques and Build Orientations
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2026) Dede, Merve; Saygılı, Sina; Topçuoğlu, Nursen
This study evaluated the combined effects of build orientation, layer thickness, and polishing protocols on surface roughness and bacterial adhesion of occlusal splints. Ten disc-shaped specimens (Ø16 × 3 mm) were fabricated for each group using a digital light processing (DLP)-based 3D printer. Specimens were printed at two orientations (0° and 90°) and two layer thicknesses (50 and 100 µm) using a splint resin. Surface roughness was measured with a contact profilometer, and bacterial adhesion was measured by optical density (OD) readouts for Streptococcus mutans using a spectrophotometer. Surface morphology was examined by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Statistical analyses were performed using jamovi. Because normality and/or homogeneity assumptions were not met, robust analysis of variance was applied. Polishing protocol significantly affected surface roughness (Ra) values. Unpolished specimens showed the highest Ra values, whereas mechanical polishing combined with centrifugation produced the lowest values. No significant main effects of polishing protocol, layer thickness or orientation were observed for bacterial adhesion. SEM findings supported the roughness results. Surface roughness was primarily influenced by polishing protocols and their interactions, whereas bacterial adhesion remained relatively stable. The weak Ra–OD correlation indicated that surface roughness alone was not a reliable predictor of bacterial adhesion.
Comparison of W. Arnett’s cephalometric analysis measurements performed using artificial intelligence and manual measurements
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2026) Kula, Betül; Polat, Elif Nadide Akay
Objectives: This study aimed to compare the linear and angular Arnett cephalometric measurements obtained from WebCeph Premium™ with those from manual cephalometric analysis and to assess the reliability of the automated measurements. Methods: Thirty-two pre-treatment lateral cephalograms of patients were randomly selected. Images were calibrated, 29 landmarks were manually traced, and 40 parameters were recorded by two orthodontists (6 angular, 34 linear). WebCeph Premium™ (version 2.0.0, AssembleCircle Corp., Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea) automatically identified landmarks and performed Arnett’s cephalometric analysis. After 15 days, orthodontists reassessed the radiographs. Reliability and repeatability were evaluated using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), which exceeded 0.95, indicating excellent agreement. Normality was assessed using the Shapiro–Wilk test, and group comparisons were performed with paired t-tests. Results: For Researcher 1, initial ICC values ranged from 0.003 to 0.984 and final values from 0.617 to 0.996. For Researcher 2, initial ICC values ranged from 0.022 to 0.999 and final values from 0.601 to 0.999. Inter-observer ICC values ranged from 0.03 to 0.984, with most measurements showing high agreement. Manual tracing and WebCeph Premium™ showed high agreement, with ICC values ranging 0.913 and 0.995. Conclusions: WebCeph Premium™ demonstrates high concordance with manual Arnett analyses; however, further refinement of certain parameters is necessary to enhance AI precision. Clinical Relevance: The utilization of WebCeph Premium™ within clinical settings has the capacity to enhance the efficiency of cephalometric analysis for orthognathic cases by minimizing manual workload and inter-examiner variability. This can result in more consistent and efficient treatment planning. © The Author(s) 2026.
From Norm Breach to Cascades: Judicial Responses to Suspect Interviewing Across Legal Cultures and the Cross-Norm Inhibition Effect
(John Wiley and Sons, 2026) Kaya Cicerali, Lütfiye
Suspect interviewing practices shape not only investigative outcomes but also the legitimacy of criminal justice systems. This article introduces the Cross-Norm Inhibition Effect (CNIE) as a theoretical framework explaining how tolerance of a single norm violation during interrogation can trigger cascading erosion of related procedural safeguards. Drawing on social-psychological research on norm inhibition and spillover, the article applies CNIE to suspect interviewing across adversarial, inquisitorial, hybrid, and human-rights–based legal systems. Using a conceptual-illustrative methodology, it analyzes recent high-court decisions across legal cultures to examine how judicial responses may contain, amplify, or reverse CNIE cascades, suggesting that CNIE functions as a conditional risk amplifier rather than a deterministic process. Weak safeguards and confession dominance may increase vulnerability to cascading distortions, whereas transparency, redundancy, and consistent judicial oversight may generate reinforcing compliance dynamics. Accordingly, this article contributes to debates on the implementation of the Méndez Principles and related rights-based interviewing reforms. © 2026 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
Smart Logistic Approach in Healthcare
(UIKTEN - Association for Information Communication Technology Education and Science, 2026) Antepli, Ali; Gerekli, İsa; Bozkurt, İbrahim
The business world today is faced with new and rapid changes in basic customer demands and needs as a result of global competition. State institutions and private hospitals have also started reviewing their costs and supply rates and are looking for solutions to market demands and costs in order to remain competitive. One of the most important ways to efficiently use and track the devices owned by hospitals, the utilization of Industry 4.0 technologies, including the Internet of Things, Artificial Intelligence, and cyber-physical systems. The desire for a more flexible supply process that adapts to market conditions and aligns with customer and patients’ needs has sparked interest in these technologies. This research aims to investigate the advantages of smart logistics applications using industry 4.0 technologies for businesses and hospitals, reveals the differences between traditional methods, and contributes to the literature through a literature review. The comprehensive literature review concluded that smart logistics technologies positively affect the productivity of hospital staff and the quality of service provided. Most of the literature on smart logistics focuses on theoretical and conceptual studies, which support the idea that smart logistics is a very new field. © 2026 Ali Antepli, Isa Gerekli & Ibrahim Bozkurt; published by UIKTEN.
