Summary: This study used a new extraction method to map personality based on consumers' textual data and found the relevance and polarity of words associated with specific personality traits. It also demonstrated how unique words can predict consumer behavior related to certain personality traits. By applying the Kaggle MBTI Personality dataset, this study effectively extracted personality traits from textual data and mapped them onto existing scales. The results suggest that the TF-IDF algorithm is a useful tool for generating a custom dictionary, and sentiment scoring with AI-powered machine learning algorithms allows for filtering and validating coherent words to understand and communicate different aspects of personality. Additionally, the study proposed four situations involving the interaction between attention (frequency) and affection (sentiment) to gain a better understanding of consumers and how to utilize feature words in terms of their attention and affection scores.

Summary: This study reveals the costs of bank regulation through analyzing the distortion in the size distribution of banks. It finds that banks can strategically bunch their assets below regulatory thresholds to avoid regulations, leading to a distortion in the size distribution of banks. The regulatory costs imposed by the Dodd-Frank Act are estimated using U.S. bank data, and the results show that the actual costs are significantly lower than banks' self-reported estimates.

Summary: The electricity sector plays a critical role in addressing climate change and transitioning to clean energy. This study evaluates the energy transition and GHG emissions mitigation in the sector, based on the Paris Agreement targets and the adoption of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and science-based targets. The findings show that companies with science-based targets perform better in terms of emissions reduction and renewable energy transition. However, the adoption of SDGs has no significant impact on mitigation results. These findings can guide the development of effective policies and prioritize the implementation of SDGs in the electricity sector.

Summary: The study aimed to understand the variation in advice and support offered to participants of the NHS Health Check program. The findings revealed differences in how commissioners, providers, and attendees perceive the primary purpose of the program. The focus on disease screening led to a high volume of delivery in primary care, while a behavioral approach emphasized advice and referrals to lifestyle services. However, limited resources and competing priorities hindered the program's effectiveness. Attendees' experiences and responses were also affected by the program's delivery and challenges in implementing its recommendations.

Summary: The impact of collaboration between local health care and non-health care organizations on health and health equity remains unclear. While some studies identify factors associated with better or worse collaboration, data linking these factors to outcomes is sparse. Further research is needed to determine which types of collaborations work in different contexts to improve population health.
