    Advancements in computing technology and the growing number of devices (e.g., computers, mobile) connected to networks have contributed to an increase in the amount of data transmitted between devices. These data are exposed to various types of cyberattacks, one of which is advanced persistent threats (APTs). APTs are stealthy and focus on sophisticated, specific targets. One reason for the detection failure of APTs is the nature of the attack pattern, which changes rapidly based on advancements in hacking. The need for future researchers to understand the gap in the literature regarding APT detection and to explore improved detection techniques has become crucial. Thus, this systematic literature review (SLR) examines the different approaches used to detect APT attacks directed at the network system in terms of approach and assessment metrics. The SLR includes papers on computer, mobile, and internet of things (IoT) technologies. We performed an SLR by searching six leading scientific databases to identify 75 studies that were published from 2012 to 2022. The findings from the SLR are discussed in terms of the literature's research gaps, and the study provides essential recommendations for designing a model for early APT detection. We propose a conceptual model known as the Effective Cyber Situational Awareness Model to Detect and Predict Mobile APTs (ECSA-tDP-MAPT), designed to effectively detect and predict APT attacks on mobile network traffic.

    Concerns have been growing about the veracity of psychological research. Many findings in psychological science are based on studies with insufficient statistical power and nonrepresentative samples, or may otherwise be limited to specific, ungeneralizable settings or populations. Crowdsourced research, a type of large-scale collaboration in which one or more research projects are conducted across multiple lab sites, offers a pragmatic solution to these and other current methodological challenges. The Psychological Science Accelerator (PSA) is a distributed network of laboratories designed to enable and support crowdsourced research projects. These projects can focus on novel research questions, or attempt to replicate prior research, in large, diverse samples. The PSA's mission is to accelerate the accumulation of reliable and generalizable evidence in psychological science. Here, we describe the background, structure, principles, procedures, benefits, and challenges of the PSA. In contrast to other crowdsourced research networks, the PSA is ongoing (as opposed to time-limited), efficient (in terms of re-using structures and principles for different projects), decentralized, diverse (in terms of participants and researchers), and inclusive (of proposals, contributions, and other relevant input from anyone inside or outside of the network). The PSA and other approaches to crowdsourced psychological science will advance our understanding of mental processes and behaviors by enabling rigorous research and systematically examining its generalizability.

    Over the past 10 years, Oosterhof and Todorov's valence-dominance model has emerged as the most prominent account of how people evaluate faces on social dimensions. In this model, two dimensions (valence and dominance) underpin social judgements of faces. Because this model has primarily been developed and tested in Western regions, it is unclear whether these findings apply to other regions. We addressed this question by replicating Oosterhof and Todorov's methodology across 11 world regions, 41 countries and 11,570 participants. When we used Oosterhof and Todorov's original analysis strategy, the valence-dominance model generalized across regions. When we used an alternative methodology to allow for correlated dimensions, we observed much less generalization. Collectively, these results suggest that, while the valence-dominance model generalizes very well across regions when dimensions are forced to be orthogonal, regional differences are revealed when we use different extraction methods and correlate and rotate the dimension reduction solution.
