When Pictures Hinder Understanding: Illustrations May Impede Learning of Abstract Ideas
Illustrations can help remember specific actions but do not always make abstract ideas easier to learn. Researchers from HSE University and Humboldt University compared how people learn from texts with different levels of abstractness. They found that participants remembered illustrations better and performed better on related tasks after reading a multimedia text about yoga asanas than after reading an abstract text about the Nash equilibrium. The findings could help improve the selection of illustrations for educational and informational materials. The study has been published in Learning and Instruction.

'I Wish That People Would Place Greater Trust in Science'
When Tatiana Eremicheva chose Fundamental and Computational Linguistics as her field of study, she thought it would be about learning languages. Instead, she discovered it was about helping people. In this interview for the HSE Young Scientists project, she discusses science as a way of understanding the world, billiards as a team-building activity, and why learning to read is not always as easy as it seems.

Immunity to Chaos: How Personal Resources Help Us Cope with the Challenges of a Turbulent World
International conflicts, crises and digital overload—the modern world puts our minds to the test every day. Traditional psychology often focuses on the consequences: anxiety, depression, and psychosomatic disorders. But what if we looked at the problem differently—through the lens of the resources that prevent us from breaking down? Psychological immunity is precisely this set of resources. Alena Zolotareva and her group, Psychological Immunity as a Resource for Positive Functioning, are developing an integrative model of this phenomenon, adapting diagnostic tools and preparing for large-scale empirical research. Why do psychologists need to collaborate with medical professionals, and how could their research transform preventive care in clinics and corporations?

The Determinants of Sporting Success in the Brazilian Football League

International Journal of Sport Finance. 2018. Vol. 13. No. 2. P. 183–197.
Angel Barajas, Thadeu Gasparetto

The determinants of sporting success in Olympic Games and international football
have been analysed. Nevertheless, few studies are found on football club-level. The
aim of this paper is to identify the determinants of sporting success at professional
club-level studying the Brazilian League. The dataset comprises all 30 football clubs
that competed in the First Division of the Brazilian League from 2010 to 2014. The
econometric approach consists in an ordered logit regression. The dependent variable
is the final position of each club. The findings reveal that team payroll, placement in
a city with higher standard of living, the number of previous participations and a
current title in the State Championships maximize the likelihood of success. However,
the number of players used negatively affects the sporting performance. The
peculiarities of Brazilian football are used to discuss the findings. Further papers on
European football are recommended as some determinants could vary.
