Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The current study aimed at revealing the relationship between paranormal belief and attitudes toward human rights. For this purpose, two questionnaires were employed, the Revised Paranormal Belief Scale (RPBS; Tobacyk, 2004) and the Attitudes Toward Human Rights Inventory (ATHRI; Crowson, 2004). The analysis of the data (n = 220) revealed a significant negative correlation between the two scales. Based on the ANOVA results, participants with lower compared to higher paranormal belief had more positive attitudes toward human rights. In particular, in the multiple regression analysis, the Traditional Religious Belief and Superstition subscales of the RPBS scale were the main predictors for attitudes toward human rights. Therefore, both analyses support the idea that belief in paranormal phenomena decreases positive attitudes toward human rights among Iranians.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
