Malaysian Stakeholders Intention to Adopt Genetic Testing

Advances in genetic research have greatly enhanced our understanding of diseases and have allowed improvements in terms of practical applications such as genetic testing (also known as DNA testing). Genetic testing (GT) is a type of medical test that looks for differences in the genetic makeup of individuals. The results of the test are useful with regard to informing people as to how to make decisions with regard to managing their healthcare. The successful implementation of the technology is heavily dependent on public support and acceptance, which translates into their intention to adopt the technology. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to examine stakeholdersâÂÂÂÂ intention and its associated predictors with regard to the adoption of GT in Malaysia. The final version of the validated questionnaire was developed and administered to a representative samples of the Malaysian population (n=421). Two stakeholder groups were considered in the form of representatives of local healthcare providers (n=221) and patients with genetic disease or their family members (n=200). The results of the study suggested that a high level of trust in key players, followed by the technology being highly accepted on religious grounds and their perception of the technology being highly beneficial, are factors with regard to supporting GT. In addition, Malaysian stakeholders reported themselves as being moderately engaged with medical genetics, and rated the risks and issues on GT as being moderate.
Instructional Strategies Utilized by Physical Therapist Clinical Instructors: An Exploratory Study

Background and Purpose. Physical therapist clinical instructors (CIs) face several challenges to the suitability of the traditional apprenticeship. The Cognitive Apprenticeship Model (CAM) has been proposed to overcome the constraints of insufficient time and the difficulties inherent in conveying decision‐making heuristics to students. Its hierarchy of operationally defined instructional strategies is intended to provide students with unobservable constituents of expertise. The purposes of this exploratory study were to examine which instructional strategies of the CAM physical therapist CIs utilize while providing instruction to physical therapist students and to consider the effect of certain demographic variables on that utilization. Subjects. The subjects were 15 volunteer physical therapist CIs. Methods. Divilbiss Random Reminder cued self‐reports of instructional strategies that were used. Results. The dominant instructional strategies utilized were modeling, coaching, and scaffolding at a mean percentage of time (MPT) of 12.9%, 19.2%, and 19.6%, respectively. Articulation occur red at an MPT of 9.9%, reflection occur red at an MPT of 4.1%, and exploration occur red at an MPT of 34.3%. Discussion and Conclusion. Subjects tended to utilize instructional strategies relevant to an apprenticeship; they relied heavily on vetted independent practice. Effects of the demographic variables were confounded by sample size. Further, a larger study and application of the CAM's principles is warranted, as is investigation of CIs' preparation for the role. An examination of the time allocated by the CI to direct instruction in physical therapy clinical education should also be considered.
Musical mothering: Middle-class strategies and affect across generations

Musical mothering: Middle-class strategies and affect across generations is an intergenerational sociological study of ten middle-class mothers exploring the relationship between music and women’s mothering practices. Applying Bourdieu’s conceptual toolkit and feminist mothering theory, the study reveals a diversity of mothers’ stories to illustrate the joys and tensions in cultivating musical children. The findings show that music affords women deeper family connections, increased well-being and a means to be perceived as ‘good’ mothers. This study contributes to intergenerational studies of music and family life, highlighting how engagement with music – formally and informally – has significant consequences for mothering practices in Australia.
Mixing the stimulus list in bilingual lexical decision turns cognate facilitation effects into mirrored inhibition effects

To test the BIA+ and Multilink models’ accounts of how bilinguals process words with different degrees of cross-linguistic orthographic and semantic overlap, we conducted two experiments manipulating stimulus list composition. Dutch–English late bilinguals performed two English lexical decision tasks including the same set of cognates, interlingual homographs, English control words, and pseudowords. In one task, half of the pseudowords were replaced with Dutch words, requiring a ‘no’ response. This change from pure to mixed language list context was found to turn cognate facilitation effects into inhibition. Relative to control words, larger effects were found for cognate pairs with an increasing cross-linguistic form overlap. Identical cognates produced considerably larger effects than non-identical cognates, supporting their special status in the bilingual lexicon. Response patterns for different item types are accounted for in terms of the items’ lexical representation and their binding to ‘yes’ and ‘no’ responses in pure vs mixed lexical decision.
Is Football players’ performance influenced by the quality of opposition? Application of the Golden Index formula in Club Atlético de Madrid 2016/2017

– Aim: In this study, we sought to analyze the influence of the quality of opposition on players’ performance of Club Atlético de Madrid (ATM) 2016/2017. For that, the Golden Index (GI) formula was applied to identify and rank the Golden Players of ATM when playing against opponents of different quality levels. Methods: GI formula variables were collected through notational analysis and three global adjacency matrices were constructed to record all successful ball-passing actions performed. Next, the matrices were imported to SocNetV to collect the network centrality metrics. To uniformize each variable, the statistical standardization technique was applied to all variables. ATM opponents were classified into three groups: high-level (n=4), medium-level (n=2) and low-level (n=2), according to their classification in La Liga and participation in the final stage of UEFA Champions League 2016/2017. Results: Koke was considered the Golden Player playing against high-level teams, while opposing low-level opponents he was ranked as second. Against mediumand low-level teams, Antoine Griezmann was considered the Golden Player, but was not classified in the three first positions against high-level opponents. Yannick Carrasco and Filipe Luís were ranked in the second and third positions, respectively, when playing against highand medium-level opponents. Also, Saúl Ñíguez obtained the third higher index against low-level teams. Conclusions: This study evidenced that players’ individual performance is influenced by the quality of the opposition. Additionally, the GI formula proved to be a potent tool in analyzing player’s performance in attacking plays in Football.
Propuesta para una doble evaluación triádica del Prácticum del Máster de Educación Secundaria = Proposal for a double triadic evaluation of Secondary teachers’ in-training

The difficulties inherent in the assessment of future teachers’ in-trainings are caused by the complexity of their aims and objectives, by the diverse assessors involved and by the need of designing coherent and equitable processes. As for the Master’s for Teaching in Secondary Education in the University of León, creating working networks, as the interdepartmental group IFAHE or the one integrated by IFAHE and some school mentors has aided to define and adequate the competencies included in this Master’s legal framework. It has also splitted those which can be assessed at school centres from the one assessed at university. The collaborative work carried out from the academic year 2009/10 up to this moment has enabled the elaboration of assessing tools and the implementation of the protocols integrating the triadic assessments carried out at university (with tutorships which incorporate self-, coand assessment by the supervisor) and at school (with tutorships integrating selfand assessment by mentors and university supervisors). The challenge for the future is to check if this assessment system can be transferred to other university subjects.
Histo-pathological changes of placenta in normal and pregnancy induced hypertension Histo-pathological changes of placenta in normal and pregnancy induced hypertension

Introduction: Placenta is the most important and vital organ of intrauterine life.Hypertension is one of the common complication met within pregnancy and contributes significantly to maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Objectives: This study is undertaken to assess the morphology of placenta in pregnancy induced hypertension and compare the same with that of normal pregnancy. Material and method: Fifty mothers with uncomplicated pregnancy and fifty mothers with pregnancy induced hypertension were selected randomly from in-patients of Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, Sir Takhtasinhji General Hospital,Bhavnagar, Gujarat. Gross and microscopic histopathological examination was carried out on placenta. Comparative study was done between two groups. The data were statistically analyzed using Chi square test by using EPI INFO 7 software. Results: Microscopic examination of placenta in Pregnancy induced hypertension show excessive syncytial knots, increased fibrinoid necrosis , increased villous stromal fibrosis and increased basement membrane thickening of the Villi along with decreased vasculosyncitial membrane as compare to normotensive group. Conclusion: Pregnancy Induced Hypertension alters the placental histomorphology. The histopathological changes among PIH group were statistically significant as compared to Normal. This will contribute to the better understanding, treatment and finally optimal management of the problem.
“When We Talk about Gender We Talk about Sex”: (A)sexuality and (A)gendered Subjectivities

Gender diversity is seemingly prevalent among asexual people. Drawing on qualitative research, and focusing on agender identities in particular, this article explores why this might be the case. I argue that previous explanations that center biologistic understandings of sexual development, the liberatory potential of asexuality, or psycho-cognitive conflict, are insufficient. Instead, I offer a sociological perspective in which participants’ agender subjectivities can be understood as arising from an embodied meaning-making process where gender was understood to be fundamentally about sexuality. I emphasize the importance of understanding asexuality and agender in the broader structural context, as particular subjectivities were shaped and sometimes necessitated in navigating hetero-patriarchy. However, these entangled understandings of (a)sexuality and (a)gender were sometimes rendered unintelligible within LGBTQ+ discursive communities, where there is often a rigid ontological distinction between gender and sexuality arising from histories of misrecognition and erasure. I complicate this, arguing that already-invisible subjectivities may be made even more invisible by this distinction. The article illustrates the need to empirically explore the meanings of the categories “gender” and “sexuality,” and the relationship between them, rather than siloing them in our methodological and conceptual frameworks.
HasAnswers: Development of a Mobile Service to Support Young People to Find and Keep a Home

Many young people experience difficulty finding and keeping an independent home, which can lead to homelessness or risk of homelessness. To help address this challenge, a young people's service in Scotland (Calman Trust) is developing a mobile service called HasAnswers. This paper provides: a description of HasAnswers; the results of iterative testing with 59 young people (36 male, 23 female) using paper and digital prototypes; and feedback from other services with a responsibility for supporting young people to achieve an independent adulthood, as a potential target market for the future scaling up of HasAnswers. While preliminary, the findings indicate the usefulness and acceptability of HasAnswers. The research contributes to HCI work on design for independent living and homelessness. In particular, the paper contributes new insight into the challenge that some users may experience navigating to the information they need, and an approach to address the problem that has been embedded in HasAnswers and preliminary tested with positive results.
Is Privacy a Myth for Facebook Users?

The management of personal information has become an insurmountable problem. The reasons are multi-fold and intertwined: technological, legal, regulatory, commercial, and behavioural. The proliferation of online social networks like Facebook has made the problem even more acute because of its business model where users’ personally identifiable information is monetised via advertisements. One of the distinctive features of privacy policies is that users’ data can be shared with their consent for specified purposes; but users do not have effective control over that data once it is shared with third-parties. There is a race to collect user data as it helps in building unique insights about the users. These insights help in matching the users to advertisements with high success. As advertisers seek a maximum return on investments and the data platforms thrive to achieve this expectation. With the current sophistication levels of data platforms in collecting and processing user data, we highlight why it appears futile to achieve privacy despite correct privacy settings enabled. The business model of monetizing of user data and a slow evolution (or absence in some jurisdictions) of legal frameworks to control proliferation of user data has lead to a power asymmetry in the data ecosystem between the motivated data processors and hapless end-users; thus making the users anxious about their participation in the ecosystem. Erosion of user trust has economic consequences. And a lack of continuous flow of data (volume, variety, velocity, and veracity) into the ecosystem will starve the emergence of data-driven innovations with profound societal impact. We elaborate approaches that could help restore the sense of privacy.
Technologsy in Islam and The West: Consume With Caution Insights From Gadamerian Hermeneutics and Emotional Intelligence

In addition to beginning with Bismillāh ir-raḥmān ir-raḥīm, in the name of God, the Infinitely Merciful and Infinitely Compassionate,2 traditional Muslim discourse should begin by a declaration of taking refuge in God from the deviousness of Satan, by saying aʿūdhū billāhi min alShayṭāni’r-rajīm (I seek refuge in God from Satan, the reviled one). This is not simply a cultural custom in Islam; rather, it has its source in the example (sunnah) of Muḥammad صلى الله عليه وسلم, which we read about in the Ṣaḥiḥayn, the two sound ḥadīth collections of Bukhārī and Muslim: “Two men insulted one another in the presence of God’s Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم and one of them became angry to the extent that his face became red and swollen. The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم looked at him and said: “I know a sentence (kalima) that were he to say it, that state he is in would leave him; and that sentence is: I seek refuge in God from the accursed Satan. ”3 We say this, not just in the context in which the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم used it, but as part of the adab, the customary manners of a Muslim, before beginning all endeavors. Unfortunately, this sentence often becomes a mere
DIABULIMIA - CULTURAL DETERMINANTS OF EATING DISORDERS

Eating disorders are becoming an increasingly common problem. This problem becomes particularly dangerous when it concerns specific groups in which the occurrence of any nutritional irregularities constitutes a serious threat to health and even life. This is the case for diabulimia, which I will present in more detail in this article. Personality predispositions and socio-cultural factors are determined as the main risk factors of development of eating disorders, inclusive diabulimia.
The Role of APRIL in Promoting Cell Cycle Progression and Drug Resistance in Multiple Myeloma

Recent years have seen a significant improvement in survival for patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Novel agent-based induction regimens have resulted in dramatically high overall response rates, however, the overwhelming majority of patients relapse and MM remains incurable. Furthermore, MM shows considerable clinical heterogeneity and patients with “high-risk” MM continue to fare badly even with novel therapies. Thus, identifying the key factors that are responsible for the proliferation of MM cells is a critical step in further improving outcomes for MM patients. It has been extensively shown that bone marrow (BM) microenvironmental factors promote MM cell proliferation, survival and drug resistance. The tumour necrosis factor superfamily member, A Proliferation-Inducing Ligand (APRIL) has recently been shown to be a survival factor for normal plasma cells and to promote drug resistance in IL-6 dependent MM cell lines. Therefore, the overall aim of this work was to examine the role of APRIL in MM and in particular, to determine whether APRIL could induce cell cycle progression in primary MM cells. In summary, APRIL was found to promote cell cycle progression in primary MM cells, but this effect was restricted to those cells expressing cyclin D2 and carrying the t(4;14) and t(14;16) translocations, in contrast to cyclin D1-expressing MM cells that were less responsive. In addition APRIL was found to protect cyclin D2-expressing MM cells from drug-induced apoptosis. Cell surface receptors for APRIL were found to be present on the surfaces of primary MM cells and APRIL was shown to be abundant in the myeloma BM microenvironment. In conclusion, these results show that cell cycle responses to APRIL segregate with respect to D-type cyclin class and translocation status and and pave the way for future mechanistic studies, as well as providing a rationale for designing specific therapies for different genetic subgroups of patients.
Do Local Public Expenditures on Functionally Impaired Crowd Out Other Local Public Expenditures

This paper examines whether local public expenditures on services to functionally impaired individuals crowd out other local public expenditures in Sweden. Over the last ten years, these expenditures have increased by more than 90 percent while other municipal expenditures have experienced increases of up to 30 percent. The impact of expenditures on functionally impaired individuals is tested on five different spending areas using a two-stage least squares (2SLS) fixed-effects model. While the results give no support for crowding out in the areas of social assistance, culture & leisure, and childcare & preschool, a negative relationship on spending for elderly & disabled care and education is found, suggesting that crowding out indeed occurs within the municipal sector. The negative relationships are significant both in a statistical and an economic sense.
Perceptions of Computational Thinking in Game Based Learning for Improving Student Problem Solving Skills

Computational thinking (CT) is a fundamental skill which is not limited to professional computing or programming scientists. Instead, CT skill assists teachers and students to think of new ways to understand problem and try to solve it. By using computational thinking skills, students will be guided step-by-step strategy to solve real problems which could be applied to various fields. In this study, game based learning (GBL) is identified as one of the learning approaches that could utilized CT skill in a learning environment. Therefore, a survey has been conducted to get responses from students and teachers on their understanding about CT, and how it relates with GBL, and problem solving
Instructor Impacts on Outdoor Education Participant Outcomes: A Systematic Review

This systematic review assesses the state of the literature regarding the impacts of outdoor education instructors’ behaviors and traits on participant outcomes. Twenty-seven articles are reviewed in detail, and student outcomes in relation to instructor behaviors and traits and to programmatic elements are identified. A range of participant outcomes including social and emotional skills development, group cohesion, and identity development are discussed. Twelve distinct outdoor education instructor behaviors are identified, and the five most salient are discussed. Instructor traits such as interpersonal qualities are emphasized. Programmatic elements employed by instructors that impact participant outcomes include (1) incorporating elements of experiential learning, (2) debriefing and feedback, and (3) participant reflection. Suggestions for future research are provided including conducting quasi-experimental studies that segment groups based on instructor behaviors, traits, and leadership theories; work that identifies participant and instructor demographics; and scholarship using diverse methodological approaches.

FRC: A New Dynamic Fuzzy Clustering Alogorithm Based on Random Forest Algorithm

A novel approach is presented in the paper. The main defect of traditional methods of fuzzy clustering is to know the number of clustering in advance. The text eigenvector is acquired based on the vector space model (VSM) and TF.IDF method. This paper applies information entropy to FRC algorithm. Random forest fulfils reduce dimension and initial classification result, which is used as input of FCM algorithm. In the iterative process, the number of clustering is ascertained until inforamtion entropy is minimum value. Due to FRC algorithm don’t need reduce dimension, the present algorithm possess higher precision and efficiency. The fuzzy clustering algorithm is suitable for dealing with the semantic variety and complexity. The example demonstrates the effectiveness of the present algorithm.
