Survey data on financial literacy, financial inclusion, informal financial business practices, and intentions towards formalization of female small vendors in Lima, Peru

This dataset encapsulates a comprehensive survey aimed at understanding informal business practices and financial literacy among small business vendors in Peru. The dataset comprises three key components: the survey questionnaire, raw survey data, and a detailed codebook. Researchers interested in the dynamics of financial practices in emerging markets may find this dataset particularly valuable, as it allows for the exploration of factors influencing financial decisions in small enterprises, with potential modifications suggested for adapting the survey to different national or cultural contexts. This dataset not only contributes to empirical research in financial behavior but also supports gender-specific studies by allowing the variable 'sex' to be adapted to 'gender' with multiple response options. The data and supplementary material is divided in tree files: The survey, presented in "Survey IFE.docx," includes questions across various domains such as informal business practices, financial literacy, financial inclusion, intentions towards financial formalization, and the formality of business ventures, along with demographic variables like age, sex, business age, and number of employees. The raw data, stored in "Dataset.csv," records responses from 118 participants, mapped against 31 indicators. The "Codebook.doc" provides exhaustive details about the survey variables, coding of responses, and the methodology employed, facilitating the replication of the study and application of the dataset in varied research contexts.

How does moving Public Engagement with Research Online Change Audience Diversity? Comparing Inclusion Indicators for 2019 & 2020 European Researchers' Night events

Taking place annually in more than 400 cities, European Researchers’ Night is a pan- European synchronized event that aims to bring researchers closer to the public. In this paper audience profiles are compared from events in 2019 and 2020. In 2019, face-to-face events reached an estimated 1.6 million attendees, while in 2020, events shifted online due to the COVID-19 pandemic and reached an estimated 2.3 million attendees. Focusing on social inclusion metrics, survey data is analyzed across two national contexts (Ireland and Malta) in 2019 (n=656) and 2020 (n=506). The results from this exploratory, descriptive study shed light on how moving public engagement with research online shifted audience profiles. Based on prior research about the digital divide in access and use of online media, hypotheses were proposed that online European Researchers’ Night events would attract audiences with higher educational attainment levels and greater self-reported, subjective economic well-being. While changes were observed from 2019 to 2020, results for each hypothesis show a mixed picture. The first hypothesis was upheld for the highest education levels but failed for the lowest levels suggesting that the pivot to online events simultaneously attracted participants with no formal education and those with postgraduate qualifications, while attracting less of those with undergraduate or lower levels of education. The second hypothesis was not upheld, with online European Researchers’ Night events attracting audiences with slightly higher levels of economic well-being compared to face-to-face events. The findings of this study indicate that European Researchers’ Night events present a clear opportunity to measure the effects of the digital divide in relation to public engagement with research across Europe.

D2.2 Open data concerning social inclusion provided on the project homepage - Emerging findings

Authors to the case posters and contributors from consortium partners are described in the deliverable.  The H2020 YouCount project runs from February 2021 to January 2024 and the consortium consists of 11 partners from nine European countries. Multiple case studies—consisting of 10 co-creative Y-CSS projects with young citizen scientists (YCS) aged between about 13-29 years old across nine countries in Europe—will provide knowledge about the positive drivers of social inclusion in general. The cases will further produce knowledge as well as innovations in relation to social participation, social belonging, and citizenship. In line with YouCount’s commitment to Open Science and Data Management based on the FAIR Principles, D2.2 provides a sample of open data concerning social inclusion from the research and innovation activities during the implementation period. The open data is based on informed consent and includes the following files included in the report: 1.      File 1 Homepage 30-06-22, Case descriptions. 2.      File 2 Case posters 08-06-2022, Experiences with inclusive co-creative Y-CSS in multiple case study.        3.      File 3 Narrative text 26-06-22, Experiences with developing the YouCount app toolkit, methodology. 4.      File 4 Quotes 25-06-22, Views and experiences with social inclusion of youths, YouCount/ECSA WG EIE webinars 2021 and             YouCount newsletters 2022. 5.      File 5 Links to YouCount app toolkit, 28-06-22, Youths’ views and experiences with social inclusion opportunities, observations. Notably, the open data are based on a co-creative and flexible research design and comes in an early phase of the case studies. They can thus only be used as emerging data and preliminary findings. Still, the data contain valuable information of the research experiences and voices from young people found in the early phase of conducting hands on co-creative Y-CSS. More systematic open social inclusion data will be provided later in the project.    The open data can also be found at the project website <a href="https://www.youcountproject.eu/">Home - YouCount - Social Citizen Science (youcountproject.eu)</a>. Note! They are shared under CC-BY (text) and CC-BY-ND (images case posters) due to confidentiality issues.

Stressful crystal histories recorded around melt inclusions in volcanic quartz

Magma ascent and eruption are driven by a set of internally and externally generated stresses that act upon the magma. We present microstructural maps around melt inclusions in quartz crystals from six large rhyolitic eruptions using synchrotron Laue X-ray microdiffraction to quantify elastic residual strain and stress. We measure plastic strain using average diffraction peak width and lattice misorientation, highlighting dislocations and subgrain boundaries. Quartz crystals preserve similar and relatively small magnitudes of elastic residual stress (mean 53-135 MPa, median 46-116 MPa) in comparison to the strength of quartz (~10 GPa). However, the distribution of strain in the lattice around inclusions varies between samples. We hypothesize that dislocation and twin systems may be established during compaction of crystal-rich magma, which affects the magnitude and distribution of preserved elastic strains. Given the lack of stress-free haloes around faceted inclusions, we conclude that most residual strain and stress was imparted after inclusion faceting. Fragmentation may be one of the final strain events that superimposes stresses of ~100 MPa across all studied crystals. Overall, volcanic quartz crystals preserve complex, overprinted deformation textures indicating that quartz crystals have prolonged deformation histories throughout storage, fragmentation, and eruption. The data collected using Laue microdiffraction at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Advanced Light Source beamline 12.3.2 are included below as .xlsx files. Data was processed and analyzed using XMAS (Tamura, 2014) and XtalCAMP (Li et al., 2020).

Enhanced degradability of thiol-ene composites through the inclusion of isosorbide-based polycarbonates

Open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) metal plates and screws remain the established standard-of-care for complex fracture fixation. They however have drawbacks such as limited customization, soft-tissue adhesions and a lack of degradation. Bone cements and composites are being developed as alternative fixation techniques in order to overcome these issues. One such composite is a strong, stiff and shapeable hydroxyapatite-containing material consisting of 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-trione (TATO) monomers which cures through high energy visible (HEV) light induced thiol-ene coupling (TEC) chemistry. Previous human cadaver and in vivo studies have shown that patches of this composite provide sufficient fixation for healing bone fractures; however, the composite lacks degradability. To promote degradation through hydrolysis, new allyl-functionalized isosorbide-based polycarbonates have been added into the composite formulation and their impact has been evaluated. Three polycarbonates with allyl functionalities, located at termini (aPC1 and aPC2) or in the backbone (aPC3), were synthesized. Composites containing 1, 3 and 5 wt% of aPCs 1-3 were formulated and evaluated with regards to mechanical properties, water absorption, hydrolytic degradation and cytotoxicity. Allyl-functionalized polycaprolactone (aPCL) was synthesized and used as a comparison. When integrated into the composite, aPC3 significantly impacted the material’s properties, with the 5wt% aPC3 formulation showing a significant increase in degradation of 469 %, relative to the formulation not containing any aPCs after 8 weeks’ immersion in PBS, along with a modest decrease in modulus of 28 % to 4.01 (0.3) GPa. Osteosyntheses combining the aPC3 3 and 5 wt% formulations with screws on synthetic bones with ostectomies matched or outperformed the ones made with previously studied neat composite with regards to bending stiffness and strength in 4-point monotonic bending before and after immersion in PBS. The favorable mechanical properties, increased degradation, and non-toxic characteristics of the materials present aPC3 as a promising additive for the TATO composite formulations. This combination resulted in stiff composites with long-term degradation suitable for bone fracture repair.

EyeOnWater training dataset for assessing the inclusion of water images

<h1>Training dataset</h1> The EyeOnWater app is designed to assess the ocean's water quality using images captured by regular citizens. In order to have an extra helping hand in determining whether an image meets the criteria for inclusion in the app, the YOLOv8 model for image classification is employed. With the help of this model all uploaded pictures are assessed. If the model deems a water image unsuitable, it is excluded from the app's online database. In order to train this model a training dataset containing a large pool of different images is required. The dataset contains a total of 13,766 images, categorized into three distinct classes: “water_good,” “water_bad,” and “other.” The “water_good” class includes images that meet the requirements of EyeOnWater. The “water_bad” class comprises images of water that do not fulfill these requirements. Finally, the “other” class consists of miscellaneous images that users submitted, which do not depict water. This categorization enables precise filtering and analysis of images relevant to water quality assessment.

MicroBooNE BNB Inclusive Overlay Sample (No Wire Info)

MicroBooNE samples are provided for collaborative development in two different formats: HDF5, targeting the broadest audience, and artroot, targeting users that are familiar with the software infrastructure of Fermilab neutrino experiments and more in general of HEP experiments. The HDF5 files are stored on Zenodo, together with a list of artroot files accessible with xrootd. This sample includes simulated interactions of neutrinos from the Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB), overlaid on top of cosmic ray data. The sample is inclusive, i.e. it includes all types of neutrinos and interactions, with relative abundance matching our nominal flux and cross section models. Interactions are simulated in in the whole cryostat volume. The HDF5 files in this sample do not include the information at the wire waveform level ("NoWire" label), allowing for larger number of events to be included in the data set. More documentation, including detailed description of content, recipes, and example usage, at <a href="https://github.com/uboone/OpenSamples/tree/v02">https://github.com/uboone/OpenSamples</a>. Suggested text for acknowledgment is the following: We acknowledge the MicroBooNE Collaboration for making publicly available the data sets [data set DOIs] employed in this work. These data sets consist of simulated neutrino interactions from the Booster Neutrino Beamline overlaid on top of cosmic data collected with the MicroBooNE detector [2017 JINST 12 P02017]. In addition, we request that software products resulting from the usage of the datasets are also made publicly available.

Simulation data and software scripts used in calculus of ∆36 signature from EMAC clumped O2 isotope-inclusive model

This publication contains simulation data and software scripts for calculating quantities related to clumped oxygen isotope signature (∆36) derivation, as described in the "static" framework of Yeung&zwj; et&zwj; al. (2016), hereinafter "Y16") and subsequently used in Yeung&zwj; et&zwj; al.&zwj; (2019) analysis. We provide the output of the 1950–2011 transient simulation with EMAC model with explicit "dynamic" simulation of ∆36 (i.e. 18O18O isotopologues undergoing transport, mixing and O(3P)-mediated isotope equilibration) to demonstrate the importance of several assumptions/simplifications involved in the static calculus.   Please refer to .README.pdf for details.
