Abstract

Adolescence is a sensitive developmental period marked by heightened neurobiological plasticity, identity formation, and socio-emotional learning. As generative artificial intelligence becomes embedded in adolescents’ daily lives, existing frameworks for digital harm, built around screen time and social media exposure, may not capture its distinct psychological affordances. This study aims to reframe adolescent AI overuse as a qualitatively distinct developmental and relational exposure, rather than an extension of screen time. Using a narrative synthesis of developmental science, relationship science, and documented public cases published between 2018 and 2025, the study examines how AI reliance intersects with five developmental domains: emotional regulation, social learning, identity formation, autonomy, and attachment. The synthesis identifies recurring conceptual risks  externalized coping, recalibrated relational expectations, externally validated identity, deferred autonomy, and displaced attachment while noting that direct empirical evidence in adolescent samples remains sparse. The study proposes a working definition of adolescent AI overuse and an interim clinical, educational, and policy framework, offering a conceptual foundation for the empirical research this area still lacks.

Abstract

The Nigerian print media industry is currently grappling with an "economics of decline" and digital disruption, resulting in high mortality rates for legacy publications. This qualitative phenomenological study investigates the strategic management and adaptations adopted by the Nigerian Tribune (African Newspapers Limited) to sustain its operations as Nigeria’s oldest surviving private newspaper. Grounded in the Theory of Mediamorphosis, the Contingency Approach, and the Resource-Based View, the research explores how the organisation aligns its internal structures with a volatile external environment. Data were gathered through a semi-structured in-depth interview with a high-level management executive. Thematic analysis reveals that survival is driven by a hybrid newsroom model that treats digital and print editions as independent revenue entities to avoid cannibalisation. Operational resilience is underpinned by a rigorous "A-Team" recruitment protocol (requiring a 70% pass mark), disciplined cost-monitoring including a transition to solar power, and the preservation of editorial independence as an inimitable brand resource. The study concludes that the organisation’s resilience stems from successful "internal corrections" and a commitment to technological savvy. Recommendations include accelerating the monetisation of digital content and institutionalising continuous ICT training to engage the "now generation".

Abstract

This research is motivated by the diverse cultural backgrounds of the Indonesian Islamic Student Movement (PMII) Sunan Ampel Kediri Commissariat for the 2025/2026 period, which has the potential to create dynamics in the organizational communication process. Differences in language, customs, and perspectives between members make intercultural communication a crucial aspect in maintaining organizational harmony. This study aims to analyze intercultural communication patterns and identify supporting and inhibiting factors within the organization. The study used a qualitative approach with a descriptive research type. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation of six administrators from different cultural backgrounds: Javanese, Sundanese, Ambonese, Sumatran, and NTT. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of the study indicate that intercultural communication patterns among administrators consist of three patterns used situationally: a one-way pattern in formal forums such as meetings and cadre development activities, a two-way pattern in discussion and coordination forums, and a multidirectional pattern which is the most dominant pattern and reflects an open, participatory, and democratic organizational culture. Based on Pace and Faules' organizational communication theory and Gudykunst and Kim's intercultural communication model, cultural diversity has been shown to positively influence the dynamics of communication flow. Supporting factors for communication include the use of Indonesian as the language of instruction, mutual respect, tolerance for cultural differences, openness to communication, and cultural adaptability. Meanwhile, inhibiting factors include differences in regional languages, differences in verbal and nonverbal communication styles, limitations in digital communication media, cultural stereotypes, and differences in cultural perspectives and values. Thus, intercultural communication in the PMII Sunan Ampel Kediri Commissariat takes place dynamically and adaptively, where cultural diversity is both a strength and a challenge that can be managed by increasing cultural awareness, tolerance, and adaptability of all members.
Cyberactivism and Open Source Intelligence (OSINT): Normative Standards for the Admissibility of Citizen-Gathered Digital Evidence in International Criminal Justice Maria Florencia Carballo Nievas

Abstract

This article examines how the International Criminal Court evaluates citizen-gathered open source intelligence (OSINT). Through doctrinal legal research, it analyses the Rome Statute (Articles 21, 51–52, 64 and 66–69), the Rules of Procedure and Evidence (Rules 63–64, 69 bis, 79 and 81), ICC case law up to the 2025 Yekatom and Ngaïssona judgment and the 2026 Duterte decision on the e-Court Protocol, comparative regimes, and the epistemology of machine testimony. The central problem, it argues, lies not in admissibility but in an “authentication deficit”: the absence of binding standards for deciding whether digitally derived evidence, once admitted, is trustworthy enough to bear the weight placed on it. The article proposes a six-element framework: cryptographic hashing at capture, anchored with an entity independent of the collector; standardised, disclosable chain-of-custody documentation open to challenge by the defence; a permissive inference of authenticity, displaceable by any specific challenge and placing no persuasive onus on the accused, as Article 67(1)(i) requires; source-protection safeguards tested against Articles 67(1)(e), 67(2) and 68(1); a duty to give reasons when departing from the Berkeley Protocol and the Leiden Guidelines; and a best-evidence requirement that operates as a safety valve and never excludes evidence. The framework is distributed across the e-Court Protocol, Regulations of the Court under Article 52 and provisional Rules under Article 51(3). It would narrow the authentication deficit without displacing free proof or burdening the defence, although it cannot establish what an item depicts, where or when it was recorded, or who made it.

Abstract

Most people living with a rare disease reside in countries with limited health system resources, yet these conditions have received little priority in national health policy in such settings. This scoping review examined how medication labeling, health literacy, equitable access, and patient empowerment intersected for rare disease patients in low- and middle-income countries. Literature published between 2018 and 2026 was searched through Europe PMC, supplemented by targeted retrieval of official policy documents. Every candidate source was verified in two stages: bibliographic details were confirmed independently against an external registry, and content was then confirmed from retrieved text. Twenty-five sources satisfied verification and eligibility criteria, while seven bibliographically confirmed records were withheld because their content could not be confirmed. Four themes were identified, comprising information asymmetry in rare disease care, medication labeling and comprehension, health literacy measurement capability, and equitable access as a condition of empowerment. No verified study evaluated medication labeling or leaflet comprehension among rare disease patients in a low- or middle-income setting. The contributing domains were found to be individually well developed but rarely joined. This absence constituted the principal finding, and validated instruments and trial designs already existed that appeared capable of addressing it.
