Proximal minority stressors (i.e., internalized homonegativity, anticipation of rejection, and concealment of sexual identity) lead to depression and anxiety. General psychological factors mediate ...the association of proximal stressors with depression and anxiety. Based on this, the present study aimed to investigate the sequential mediating roles of shame and forgiveness of self on the relations of proximal stressors with depression and anxiety in a sample of self-identified gay men in Turkey (N = 200). The findings revealed that proximal stressors significantly predicted depression and anxiety indirectly through shame and self-forgiveness. Thus, the link between minority stress and shame should be considered in clinical practice, and self-forgiveness should be integrated into intervention programs to eliminate the negative impacts of shame on depression and anxiety among this population. Limitations and directions for future studies are presented.
Recently, a new national height reference system was implemented: the Slovenian Height System 2010 (SVS2010). This new system replaced the Slovenian Height System 2000 (SVS2000). It is a new ...realisation of a national height system, which is based on new levelling and gravity surveys and recent tide gauge data. Its implementation changes the height datum (from Trieste to Koper) as well as the type of heights (from normal-orthometric to normal). Consequently, differences between the old and new height reference systems from 1.4 cm to 30.8 cm were detected. Unfortunately, there is no simple transformation between the two height reference systems. The surveyor must choose an appropriate method of local transformation or recalculation based on the given data and the required accuracy. To provide all necessary information for the users, the Surveying and Mapping Authority of the Republic of Slovenia has, in cooperation with the Faculty of Civil and Geodetic Engineering at the University of Ljubljana, prepared a new Technical instruction for the use of the new national height system. Online software called SiVis is also available for converting GNSS-based heights into both height reference systems (SVS2000 and SVS2010). Due to some problems with the (old) AMG2000/Trst geoid model near the national boundary, this model was extrapolated to a buffer covering parts of neighbouring countries. EPSG codes for both national height reference systems of Slovenia were also created.

V okviru projekta Vzpostavljanje evropskega prostorskega referenčnega sistema v Sloveniji je bila izračunana tudi ploskev testnega geoida. V prispevku bo predstavljena primerjava določitve geoidnih ...višin iz geoida 2000 in testnega geoida iz leta 2010. Analizo natančnosti ploskev geoida Slovenije smo opravili s primerjavo geoidnih višin, ki jih dobimo kot razlike merjenih eliposoidnih in nadmorskih višin (»merjene geoidne višine«) in tistih, ki jih interpoliramo iz modelov. Primerjali smo »merjene« in interpolirane geoidne višine na 352 GNSS/nivelman kontrolnih točkah. Z izračunom ploskve testnega geoida smo pridobili možnost predhodne analize kakovosti prihodnjega geoida, ki je zelo pomembna za izvajanje GNSS-višinomerstva v geodetski praksi ; This paper presents a quality analysis and comparison of two height reference surfaces. The first is the actual geoid model from the year 2000, and the second is the test geoid model determined in the frame of the project Establishment of the European Reference System in Slovenia. Quality analysis is based on the comparison of geoid heights determined from measured ellipsoidal and mean-sea-level heights and geoid heights interpolated from the model. A comparison was made on 352 GNSS/levelling points.
