Sentiment and Presentiment in Twitter
Meta-analyses of experiments investigating human behavioral and physiological reactions to unpredictable future events suggest the existence of a poorly understood ability to “feel the future.” Is this effect reflected in sentiment metrics based on social media posts? To find out, analysis of 13 years of daily Twitter sentiment data in 10 languages was examined two weeks prior to events assessed as significantly negative and unpredictable, includ…
International Medical Knowledge Transfer as a Tool of Public Diplomacy
The international dissemination of expertise in most transition countries is underdeveloped because of a number of developmental and practical challenges. Croatia’s overall educational and innovatory potential for health knowledge transfer remains above average when compared to what has been achieved by other new EU Member States, and it is dominated by public sector research institutes and universities. This unrealized potential could be improve…

Does corruption undermine trust in health care? Results from public opinion polls in Croatia
Has Anyone Seen It
Over the past decade, public opinion surveys have shown that Croats are deeply dissatisfied with their health care system and asses it to be one of the most important issues. However, health care hardly makes it into any political discourse in Croatia. This study analyzes the results of a public opinion survey conducted before the 2007 parliamentary elections to find out what the public sentiment on health care performance in Croatia is and to an…
Too Ill to Find the Cure
This article tackles the questions of why some Central and East European countries have been more successful at creating a better-performing health care sector while others left it in decay. To answer this question, the effects of corruption, institutional effectiveness, and level of democratic consolidation are considered regarding the ability of the health care sector to prevent cancer deaths. The tests of the hypotheses through an auto-regress…
Rural–Urban Analyses of Health‐Related Quality of Life Among People With Multiple Sclerosis
Context: Health‐related quality of life (HRQOL) is a multi‐dimensional construct including aspects of life quality or function that are affected by physical health and symptoms, psychosocial factors, and psychiatric conditions. HRQOL gives a broader measure of the burden of disease than physical impairment or disability levels. Purpose: To identify factors associated with HRQOL among people with multiple sclerosis (MS) utilizing the SF‐8 Health S…
World Bank Funding and Health Care Sector Performance in Central and Eastern Europe
This article looks at the impact of World Bank funding on health care sector performance in Central and Eastern European countries. The World Bank has been one of few organizations involved in health care sector assistance in these nations during the transition period, mainly through funds disbursement. This article tests hypotheses that those countries that perform better economically, that are more favorably evaluated by the World Bank, and tha…
Finding or imagining flawed research
Dear Editor: The article “Finding and Correcting Flawed Research Literatures” by Delgado-Romero and Howard (2005) provides an ironic example of flawed research. I will restrict my comments just to their treatment of the ganzfeld telepathy test. Delgado-Romero and Howard (2005) were motivated to reexamine the ganzfeld effect because they suspected that the previous meta-analytic estimates of the hit rate in that experiment were biased by the filed…
Reexamining psychokinesis
H. Bösch, F. Steinkamp, and E. Boller's review of the evidence for psychokinesis confirms many of the authors' earlier findings. The authors agree with Bösch et al. that existing studies provide statistical evidence for psychokinesis, that the evidence is generally of high methodological quality, and that effect sizes are distributed heterogeneously. Bösch et al. postulated the heterogeneity is attributable to selective reporting and thus that ps…
Of two minds
The first author, a proponent of evidence for psychic ability, and the second, a sceptic, have been conducting a systematic programme of collaborative sceptic-proponent research in parapsychology. This has involved carrying out joint experiments in which each investigator individually attempted to mentally influence the electrodermal activity of participants at a distant location. The first two collaborations obtained evidence of 'experimenter ef…
