Reframing the filter bubble through diverse scale effects in online music consumption by Dougal Shakespeare, Victor Chareyron, Camille Roth

“…Taking into account various scales, affordances, and diversity measures, the contribution of this work conducts an empirical analysis of approximately 50,000 Deezer users’ artist consumption histories across different affordances offering various degrees of algorithmic assistance. Transitioning through three scales of increasing aggregation—intra-sessions, inter-sessions and inter-affordances—our work underscores how shifts in perspective, particularly in information representation, can yield markedly different conclusions concerning the role of algorithmic devices in fostering diversity. …”

N2GNet tracks gait performance from subthalamic neural signals in Parkinson’s disease by Jin Woo Choi, Chuyi Cui, Kevin B. Wilkins, Helen M. Bronte-Stewart

“…Abstract Adaptive deep brain stimulation (DBS) provides individualized therapy for people with Parkinson’s disease (PWP) by adjusting the stimulation in real-time using neural signals that reflect their motor state. Current algorithms, however, utilize condensed and manually selected neural features which may result in a less robust and biased therapy. …”

The Rise of Influencer Practices Among Psychologists: From Therapy Rooms to Instagram Reels by Burçin Sarı

“…Based on these findings, we contend that influencer creep not only alters individual professional practices but also reconfigures the profession itself through four interrelated changes: (a) the expansion of audiences, shifting from small-scale, localized clients to large, mass followings; (b) the redefinition of traditional markers of expertise, where institutional credentials are increasingly replaced by platform-driven metrics; (c) the alteration of traditional gatekeeping structures, as algorithmic systems take on a more prominent role in determining professional recognition and influence; and (d) requiring a new set of skills such as content creation and algorithmic proficiency, often overshadowing conventional professional competencies.…”
