‘The Peak of Stupidity and ‘The Valley of Despair: HSE Economists Propose an Explanation for the Dunning–Kruger Effect
The Dunning–Kruger effect, which describes a sharp surge in self-confidence among beginners followed by an equally rapid decline as they gain experience, can be explained by the nature of the learning process and the acquisition of new knowledge. This conclusion was reached by Andrey Vorchik of the HSE Faculty of Economic Sciences together with independent researcher Murat Mamyshev. They developed a mathematical model of learning and demonstrated how subjective confidence is formed and changes as knowledge accumulates, as well as how teachers can reduce the ‘valley of despair’ experienced by learners.

Population and Organismal Perspectives on Trait Origins

Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part C Studies in History and Philosophy of Biological and Biomedical Sciences. 2020. P. 1–9.
McLoone B.

Some biologists and philosophers of biology claim selection can "create" novel traits. Others claim creativity is to be found only in development. I here endorse the former claim, but take seriously and address the concerns that underlie the latter. My discussion of these issues is informed by recent work that champions the "return of the organism" to mainstream evolutionary biology, and I suggest how population and organismal perspectives on trait origins can be reconciled.

Reconstruction of EEG signals using next-generation reservoir computing
Ratnikov F., European Physical Journal: Special Topics 2026 P. 1–10
EEG recordings are often affected by the loss or corruption of individual channels due to electrode detachment, poor scalp contact, or external interference. Such channels must be accurately reconstructed before further analysis. In this study, we investigate Next-Generation Reservoir Computing (NG-RC) as a data-driven approach for reconstructing corrupted EEG channels and compare its performance with ...

Интеллектуалы Муссолини: фашистская общественно-политическая мысль
Грегор Э. Д., СПб.: Владимир Даль, 2026.
Фашизм традиционно считался иррациональным и антиинтеллектуальным феноменом, ведомым мистицизмом и приверженным хаосу и грубой жестокости. Настоящее издание — итог почти четырех десятилетий исследований одного из ведущих  экспертов по этому вопросу, американского историка Энтони Джеймса Грегора. Он утверждает, что итальянский фашизм был не более и не менее иррациональным, чем другие революционные идеологии XX века. Грегор прослеживает историю ...

Structure of the Obligate Heterodimer of the IHF Protein in Solution and in the Crystal
Dadinova L., Petoukhov M., Mozhaev A. et al., Crystallography Reports 2026 Vol. 71 P. 52–58
Bacterial chromosomes are tightly packed in the cells due to interactions with specific nucleoid-associated proteins. Among them, the IHF protein draws attention due to its presumed influence on intracellular crystallization processes, leading to bacterial resistance to drugs. The crystal structure of the IHF heterodimer is known only in complex with a short DNA fragment, whereas ...

Functional Brain Connectivity and Musical Training: Insights from EEG Phase Synchronization during Music Perception
Radygina A., Kulikova S., Herald of the Russian Academy of Sciences 2025 Vol. 95 No. 6 P. 963–970
Musical training has a significant impact on brain organization, leading to functional and structural adaptations that enhance auditory, visual, motor, and cognitive processes. This study investigates how extensive musical training shapes functional brain connectivity by comparing professional musicians and non-musicians. Using EEG phase-locking value (PLV) analysis, we examined neural synchronization across alpha, beta, and gamma frequency ranges during music ...

EEG evidence for reproducible neural states during Buddhist Highest Yoga Tantra meditation
Mikhaylets E. V., Razorenova A. М., Chernyshev V. L. et al., Scientific Reports 2026 Vol. 16 Article 23560

Post-Symbolic Coloniality: The Metasimulacrum of Otherness in Digital Culture
Aliev R. T., Galactica Media: Journal of Media Studies 2025 Vol. 7 No. 2 P. 166– 186
This article develops the concept of the metasimulacrum of otherness to analyze the structural transformations of difference in digital culture. Unlike traditional representations of otherness, the metasimulacrum reorganizes the very conditions of perception, producing otherness as a managed, aestheticized, and commodified flow. Digital platforms no longer marginalize or suppress difference; they integrate it into the ...
