BoggioChanging collective behaviour and supporting non-pharmaceutical interventions is an
important component in mitigating virus transmission during a pandemic. In a large international
collaboration (Study 1, N = 49,968 across 67 countries), we investigated selfreported
factors associated with public health behaviours (e.g., spatial distancing and stricter
hygiene) and endorsed public policy interventions (e.g., closing bars and restaurants) during
the early stage of the COVID-19 pandemic (April-May 2020). Respondents who reported
identifying more strongly with their nation consistently reported greater engagement in
public health behaviours and support for public health policies. Results were similar for
representative and non-representative national samples. Study 2 (N = 42 countries) conceptually
replicated the central finding using aggregate indices of national identity (obtained
using the World Values Survey) and a measure of actual behaviour change during the
pandemic (obtained from Google mobility reports). Higher levels of national identification
prior to the pandemic predicted lower mobility during the early stage of the pandemic
(r = −0.40). We discuss the potential implications of links between national identity, leadership,
and public health for managing COVID-19 and future pandemics

Predicting attitudinal and behavioral responses to COVID-19 pandemic using machine learning
At the beginning of 2020, COVID-19 became a global problem. Despite all the efforts to emphasize the relevance of preventive measures, not everyone adhered to them. Thus, learning more about the characteristics determining attitudinal and behavioral responses to the pandemic is crucial to improving future interventions. In this study, we applied machine learning on the multinational data collected by the International Collaboration on the Social and Moral Psychology of COVID-19 (N = 51,404) to test the predictive efficacy of constructs from social, moral, cognitive, and personality psychology, as well as socio-demographic factors, in the attitudinal and behavioral responses to the pandemic. The results point to several valuable insights. Internalized moral identity provided the most consistent predictive contribution—individuals perceiving moral traits as central to their self-concept reported higher adherence to preventive measures. Similar results were found for morality as cooperation, symbolized moral identity, self-control, open-mindedness, and collective narcissism, while the inverse relationship was evident for the endorsement of conspiracy theories. However, we also found a non-neglible variability in the explained variance and predictive contributions with respect to macro-level factors such as the pandemic stage or cultural region. Overall, the results underscore the importance of morality-related and contextual factors in understanding adherence to public health recommendations during the pandemic.Peer reviewe

Neural State Estimator for Complex Mechanical Part of Electrical Drive: Neural Network Size and Performance of State Estimation
This paper presents the results of simulation research of an off-line-trained, feedforward neural-network-based state estimator. The investigated system is the mechanical part of an electrical drive characterised by elastic coupling with a working machine, modelled as a dual-mass system. The aim of the research was to find a set of neural network structures giving useful and repeatable results of the estimation. The mechanical resonance frequency of the system has been adopted at the level of 9.3-10.3 Hz. The selected state variables of the mechanical system are load, speed and stiffness torque of the shaft
