Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan peningkatan kemampuan argumentasi maha­siswa sesudah mengikuti perkuliahan yang menerapkan model berpikir induktif dengan metode probing-prompting learning pada materi subgrup. Jenis penelitian ini adalah quasi eksperimen dengan pendekatan kuantitatif. Sampel penelitian adalah 38 mahasiswa angkatan 2016/2017 Prodi Pendidikan Matematika UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya. Instrumen yang digu­nakan adalah lembar tes kemampuan argumentasi. Kemampuan argumentasi mahasiswa diiden­tifikasi berdasarkan komponen argumentasi McNeill dan Krajcik yang terdiri dari claim, evidence, reasoning, dan rebuttal. Peningkatan kemampuan argumentasi mahasiswa dianalisis dengan statistik non parametrik menggunakan uji Wilcoxon Signed-Rank pada taraf signifikan 5% (α = 0,05). Hasil analisis data menunjukkan bahwa kemampuan argumentasi mahasiswa setelah perlakuan lebih baik dibandingkan sebelum perlakuan dan terdapat perbedaan signi­fikan (Z = -7,397, p = 0,000) kemampuan argumentasi mahasiswa sebelum dan setelah diterap­kan model berpikir induktif dengan metode probing-prompting learning pada materi subgrup. Dengan demikian, penerapan model berpikir induktif dengan metode probing-prompting learning pada materi subgrup efektif untuk meningkatkan kemampuan argumen­tasi maha­siswa. Students’ argumentation ability through inductive thinking model with the probing-prompting learning methodAbstractThis study aimed to describe an increase in students' argumentative abilities after attending lectures that apply inductive thinking models with probing-prompting learning methods in subgroup material. This type of research was quasi-experimental with a quantitative approach. The study sample was 38 students of Mathematics Education Department of State Islamic University Sunan Ampel Surabaya, Indonesia. The instrument used was the argumentation ability test sheet. The student's argumentation ability was identified based on McNeill and Krajcik's argumentation component consisting of claims, evidence, reasoning, and rebuttal. Improved student argumentation skills were analyzed by non-parametric statistics using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test. The results of data analysis showed that the students’ argumen­tation ability after treatment was better than before treatment and there was a significant difference (Z = -7,397, p = 0,000) the ability of students' argumentation before and after the inductive thinking model with the probing-prompting learning method was applied in the subgroup material. Thus, the implementation of inductive thinking models with probing-prompting learning methods in subgroup material was effective for improving students' argu­men­tation abilities.
Grammatical ability predicts relative action naming impairment in primary progressive aphasia

ABSTRACT Background Findings from several studies have indicated that participants with nfvPPA and participants with svPPA exhibit different patterns on action and object naming tasks, while other recent studies have found that neither participants with nfvPPA nor participants with svPPA show a significant difference in accuracy between object naming and action naming. Aims The goal of this study was to test the hypothesis that relative action naming impairment is associated with grammatical ability in PPA, rather than a specific subtype of PPA. Methods & Procedures Thirty-four participants with PPA completed the Boston Naming Test, the Action Naming subtest of the Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Examination, and the Northwestern Anagram Test, which was used to measure grammatical ability. Z-scores for the two naming tasks were calculated based on normative data from unimpaired controls. For each participant with PPA, the relative action naming impairment was calculated by subtracting the object naming z-score from the action naming z-score. Linear regression analysis was then used to evaluate the role of grammatical ability as a predictor of relative action naming impairment, while controlling for age, education, cognitive ability (as measured by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment), and semantic ability (as measured by the Pyramids and Palm Trees test). The interaction between grammatical ability and each control variable was also examined. Outcomes & Results The main effect of grammatical ability was a significant predictor of relative action naming impairment, while none of the control variables was a significant predictor. However, the interaction between grammatical ability and semantic ability was also significant. Conclusions Individuals who have both grammatical impairment and semantic impairment have the largest relative action naming impairment. These individuals may benefit from a treatment that focuses on the retrieval of verbs and their arguments.
EXPLORING THE ROLES OF SOCIAL ANXIETY, TRAUMA, AND URBANICITY IN THE RELATION BETWEEN POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE SYMPTOMS IN PSYCHOSIS

Title of Dissertation: EXPLORING THE ROLES OF SOCIAL ANXIETY, TRAUMA, AND URBANICITY IN THE RELATION BETWEEN POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE SYMPTOMS IN PSYCHOSIS Cristina P. Garcia, Doctor of Philosophy, 2019 Dissertation directed by: Professor Jack J. Blanchard, Department of Psychology Background: Research shows that positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia are separate but related factors. However, it is unclear which specific symptoms may drive this relation or whether there are moderating factors. Moreover, it is unknown whether the relation between positive and negative symptoms is specific to schizophrenia or exists for individuals with psychosis regardless of diagnosis. Research is needed that looks specifically at individual symptoms within positive and negative symptom domains in a sample of mixed diagnoses. The current study examines whether paranoia, a positive symptom, and deficits in motivation and pleasure, a negative symptom, are correlated with one another in a transdiagnostic sample of individuals with psychosis. Literature suggests that paranoia and deficits in motivation and pleasure are both interpersonal in nature. This shared interpersonal characteristic suggests that these symptoms may be linked through social stressors. Method: Participants were 38 people with psychosis and six people without a psychiatric diagnosis. They completed the Clinical Assessment Interview for Negative Symptoms (CAINS), including the Motivation and Pleasure (MAP) subscale; the Green et al. Paranoid Thought Scales (GPTS), including Social Reference (SR) and Persecution (P); the Social Interaction Anxiety Scale (SIAS); the Self-Beliefs Related to Social Anxiety scale (SBSA), including Unconditional Beliefs (UB); the Trauma History Questionnaire (THQ); and the Neighborhood Health Questionnaire (NHQ), including Activities with Neighbors (AN). Results: Inconsistent with hypotheses, neither GPTS nor its subscales was significantly correlated with CAINS MAP. GPTS was significantly correlated with SIAS, SBSA, and THQ totals; in exploratory analyses, the GPTS SR was significantly correlated with SBSA UB. CAINS MAP was significantly correlated with NHQ AN. Conclusions: This study revealed novel associations between paranoia and social anxiety cognitions and between motivation and pleasure deficits and neighborhood socialization. We explore reasons for null results (e.g., limitations with the transdiagnostic approach; low symptomatology in the sample). Future directions include examination of other positive and negative symptoms; investigation into facets of social anxiety and their overlap with paranoia; and assessment of urbanicity/neighborhood health and its relation to paranoia.

Electrocardiographic features of arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy according to disease severity: A need to broaden diagnostic criteria

Background The purpose of this study was to systematically study diagnostic a nd prognostic electrocardiographic (ECG) characteristics of arrhythmogenic right ventricle dysplasia/cardiomyopathy (ARVD/C). Methods and Results The patient p opulation included 50 patients with ARVD/C (27 males, 23 females; mean age 38±1 5 years). We also analyzed the ECG of 50 age and gender matched normal control subject and 28 consecutive patients who presented with right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) tachycardia. Right bundle branch block (RBBB) was present in 11 p atients (22%). T wave inversions in V1 through V3 were observed in 85%of ARVD /C patients in the absence of RBBB compared with none in RVOT and normal control s, respectively(P 0.0001); epsilon waves were seen in 33%, and a QRS duration ≥110 ms in V1 through V3 was present in 64%of patients. Among those without RB BB, our newly proposed criterion of “prolonged S wave upstroke in V1 throughV3 ”≥55 ms was the most prevalent ECG feature (95%) and correlated with disease severity and induction of VT on electrophysiological study. This feature also b est distinguished ARVD/C (diffuse and localized) from RVOT. Conclusions A prolo nged S wave upstroke in V1 through V3 is the most frequent ECG finding in ARVD/ C and should be considered as a diagnostic ECG marker.
Divergent Effects of Friend Recommendations on Disclosed Social Media Advertising in the United States and Korea

This study establishes that when social media advertisements appear with disclosures, featuring friend recommendations can result in diametrically opposite effects on advertising effectiveness in the United States and Korea. While friend recommendations reduce perceived credibility, brand attitude, and purchase intention for disclosed advertisements in the United States, they increase advertising effectiveness in Korea. The findings shed light on important distinctions between how Western and Asian consumers evaluate friend recommendations and advertising disclosures on social media that were heretofore absent. Theoretical contributions and practical implications for social media advertising and digital consumer behavior are discussed.
Distributive Justice Beliefs are Guided by Whether People Think the Ultimate Goal of Society is Well-Being or Power

Abstract Disagreements about how resources should be distributed are often heated, perhaps because people suspect that distributive justice beliefs that clash with their own derive from nefarious motives. In this paper, we consider a less pessimistic explanation for diversity in distributive justice beliefs: such beliefs are influenced by what one considers the primary utility or value of their society in the first place. In five studies (N = 21,515), we demonstrate the existence of two separable types of distributive justice beliefs, one (Equality/need) influenced by a focus on societal well-being, and the other (Equity/merit) by a focus on societal power. These findings lend insight into how growing tensions rooted in resource allocation might be defuzed.
Perceptions of social support among patients with recently diagnosed breast, endometrial, and ovarian cancer: An exploratory study

The role of social support in ameliorating the stressful effects of cancer diagnosis and treatment was explored in 357 women aged 20 to 54 with recently diagnosed breast, endometrial, or ovarian cancer. The women were drawn from the National Cancer Institute's population based Iowa Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) cancer registry. During face-to-face interviews, the women were asked (1) what types of supportive persons were available (spouse, friends, relatives, children) and the level of support these persons had provided since the cancer had developed (social support network), (2) whether various socioemotional and instrumental tasks were beneficial (social support), and (3) whether they were experiencing marital difficulties or felt isolated or lonely (effects of stress). The results indicated that the husband was the most important member of the support network for married women and that relatives were the most important member for single women. Few women felt isolated or lonely or r.
A matched pair case control study on the risk factors of acquired renal cystic

Objective:To observe the risk factors of ARC in chronic renal disease patients.Method:A respective matched pair case control study was conducted to identify the risk factors of ARC. 53 patients with ARC were matched for basic renal disease to controls. Univariable analysis was performed to select variables, multiple conditional logistic regression and stepwise regression was used to estimate odds ratios.Result:As a result of stepwise regression, age (OR= 2.093) and Ccr (OR= 0.498) were powerfully associated with ARC.Conclusion:Age and Ccr were the possible risk factors of ARC. With the increase of age or the decrease of Ccr, ARC were highly prevalent among chronic renal disease patients.
Exploring the accessibility of leisure facilities in Munster for people with physical disabilities

There are numerous benefits associated with physical exercise for people with physical disabilities. However they remain a largely inactive group. The purpose of this study was to identify various physical, attitudinal and policy based barriers and facilitators associated with engagement in physical activity for people with physical disabilities within the setting of leisure and fitness facilities in the Munster region. A quantitative cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted using online questionnaires. The questionnaire examined facilities physical access, ascertained what equipment and policies the centre had and leisure and fitness professionals attitudes and training in relation to people with physical disabilities. Data were collected from thirty leisure and fitness professionals. The majority of facilities in the study had accessible features pertaining to parking areas, changing rooms and showers. Most facilities did not have automatic entrance doors and had limited availability of dual-use exercise equipment. The majority of facilities do not charge personal assistants. A minority of respondents reported that guide dogs were not permitted on the premises. Lack of specific training in disability awareness was also identified as a common barrier. In addition very few facilities included people with disabilities as a target-market group. Findings from this preliminary study provide future directions for further research into the accessibility of Irish leisure and fitness facilities. Through a combined individualised and population approach, Occupational Therapists have a significant role in advocating for equal access to facilities, and for the enablement of people to engage in meaningful occupations that contribute positively to health and wellbeing.
Measuring Cross-Cultural Perception of Educational Environment among Postgraduates by Using Postgraduate Hospital Educational Environment Measure (PHEEM) Inventory

Background: A postgraduate training program should be focused on positive and healthy educational environment. Postgraduate trainees suffer invariably during their training when the hospital educational environment is stressful. It is, therefore very important to assess the training environment of an institute as a part of good educational practice. Aims: The aim of this study is assess and compare the clinical learning environment in the postgraduate training programs in Dubai and Sialkot. We also measure the perception of autonomy, the perception of teaching, and the perception of social support to identify more specific weaknesses and strengths in an educational environment. We demonstrate the appropriate steps, focusing on the Postgraduate Hospital Educational Environment Measure (PHEEM). Methods: PHEEM questionnaire was completed by 95 postgraduate residents in an observational, quantitative study involving a cross sectional survey of the perception of attitudes and behavior in postgraduate training programs in Dubai (UAE) and Sialkot (Pakistan). Results: We used “IBM SPSS STATISTICS 21” software for data analysis. The results were analyzed and compared between postgraduate residents from Dubai and Sialkot. The total PHEEM score we achieved in our study is 104.8. The comparative scores achieved between Dubai and Sialkot residents by three domains of PHEEM inventory include Perception of role autonomy (34.44/35.85), Perception of teaching (36.60/40.65), and Perception of social support (24.42/24.42) respectively. There is no statistically significant association between PG year of training and country of training but there is statistically significant association between gender and country of training. Conclusion: PHEEM is a simple, multidimensional, valid and highly reliable instrument measuring the educational environment among postgraduates working in different cultures and clinical disciplines. There are more positive than negative as far as the learning environment is concerned in both Dubai and Sialkot; however, there is room for improvement. Perception of social support and role autonomy is identical in Dubai and Sialkot. But teaching is better in Sialkot, attributed mainly to pediatric residency.
Living in Harmony: Acculturation of Balinese and Dayak Ngaju Cultures in Basarang Jaya Village, Central Kalimantan

The transmigrants of Balinese ethnic living in Basarang Jaya Village, Kapuas, Central Kalimantan live harmoniously with the local ethnics (Dayak Ngaju) even though the area ever experienced ethnic riots that took thousands of lives and properties. The objective of this research is to find out the form of the cultural acculturation occurring between Balinese transmigrants with the Dayak Ngaju in Basarang Jaya Village. This research used phenomenology approach. The data were collected through in-depth interviews and participatory observations. The sources of research data are the local chiefs of Balinese and banjar Bali in Basarang Jaya Village and the first group of transmigrants coming to Basarang Jaya Village. The subject of the research was the Balinese transmigrants in Basarang Jaya Village. The object of the research is the way of life, the way of speaking, the food and the religious activities of Bali transmigrants. The research reveals some facts. First, the Balinese transmigrants have made adaptation by imitating how the ethnics of Dayak Ngaju lives. Second, there are changes in the language, way of life, food and religious activities of transmigrants. Third, the harmony between the two ethnics can be maintained by using the religion as the medium of integration.
Joint Trajectories of Peer Cyber and Traditional Victimization in Adolescence: A Look at Risk Factors

This study aimed to identify joint trajectories of peer cyber and traditional victimization from ages 13 to 17 and individual, family, peer, and school risk factors associated with group membership. The sample was composed of 1,194 adolescents (54.2% girls). Cyber and traditional victimization were assessed at ages 13, 15, and 17. The results first revealed a low/increasing and a high/decreasing trajectories for cybervictimization and a low/decreasing and a moderate/chronic for traditional victimization. Conditional probabilities suggested that cybervictims had a high probability of being victims on school grounds, whereas traditional victims were not necessarily the target of cybervictimization. Four joint trajectory groups were also identified. With the low victimization group as the reference category, the results revealed that different sets of predictors were associated with membership in the three other joint trajectory groups. The results are discussed in relation to intervention and prevention strategies.
Privacy at Work: A Review and a Research Agenda for a Contested Terrain

Privacy in the workplace is a pivotal concern for employees and employers. Employees expect to be in control of the personal information and access they provide to the organization. Employers, however, expect extensive information regarding their employees as well as extensive access to employees’ presence. The chasm between these two often competing expectations has been magnified by regulatory and technological trends. We begin the review by integrating viewpoints from multiple disciplines to disentangle definitions of privacy and to delineate the privacy contexts of information privacy and work environment privacy. We then identify the key stakeholders of privacy in the workplace and describe their interests. This discussion serves as a platform for our stakeholders’ privacy calculus model, which in turn provides a framework within which we review empirical findings on workplace privacy from organizational research and related disciplines and from which we identify gaps in the existing research. We then advance an extensive research agenda. Finally, we draw attention to emerging technologies and laws that have far-reaching implications for employees and employers. Our review provides a road map for researchers and practitioners to navigate the contested terrain of workplace privacy.
The participation of Roma and Moroccan women in family education: educational and psychosocial benefits / Participación de mujeres gitanas y marroquíes en la formación de familiares: beneficios educativos y psicosociales

Abstract Previous studies have highlighted the role that schools can play in improving the education and well-being of disadvantaged families. In this study we focus on the benefits perceived by two of the most disadvantaged groups in Spain: Roma women and immigrants with low levels of education. Specifically, we analyse the impact of participating in family education programmes delivered by eight schools. The study is based on a communicative approach and has been developed through interviews and focus groups. The sample comprises Roma and Moroccan women as well as their children, family members, teachers and volunteers. The data obtained suggest that the inclusion of the women in the educational programmes has helped improve the women’s perception of their academic and linguistic abilities, and has also brought about psychosocial benefits, including increases in self-esteem and autonomy and the strengthening of social networks.
In-service Training Professional Development Needs of Iranian Teachers of English as Foreign Language: A Qualitative Research Study

Teachers' perceptions of continuing professional development and the activities which they undertake to develop professionally have been investigated in different contexts. This study assessed professional development needs Iranian English as Foreign Language (EFL) teachers. In so doing a qualitative research method was used. Thirteen EFL teachers were selected through convenience sampling. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews with the participants. Data were analyzed through content analysis techniques. Results showed that EFL teachers need 8 types of professional development activities: teaching methods, assessment, curriculum development, educational psychology, educational technology, communication and management skills, language skills, and linguistics and meta-linguistics awareness. Results can be used by pre-service and in-service training program developers, EFL teachers, and language institutes to assess EFL teachers' needs and develop their profession.
