Attitudes toward people with epilepsy in Libya: The conundrum continues
A close and contemplative look at the published neurology literature makes it clear to the reader that epilepsy research possesses more popularity and occupies a higher position in the plethora of scholarly medical writings.

Psychological and emotional aspects of menstrual health and hygiene management: Experiences of adolescent girls from rural Assam, India
The onset of menstruation is a landmark event in women’s life which is known to bring many psychological and emotional changes along with physical changes. In many countries, particularly in developing and emerging countries, such as India, it also brings various challenges for women to manage menstruation hygienically. Studies have often highlighted several well-known practical and physical barriers to Menstrual Health and Hygiene Management (MHHM); e.g., lack of WASH (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene) facilities, lack of affordable menstrual absorbents, and so on. However, there are also some psychological and emotional barriers; such as, trauma of menarche, feelings of embarrassment, stress, anxiety, and shame.

For this explanation, this paper introduces surreal numbers into the perception of subjective psychological time.

Long-running debates over the psychological effects of media violence have exposed significant methodological problems embedded within 40-plus years of research. Parallel concerns have now emerged within contemporary social media research. This commentary expands on the observations recently published by Grimes and Lasser (2025) to show how social media scholars are in similar danger of relying too much on inconsistent operationalizations of key constructs and insufficient attention to individual differences among people who consume media.
