The Relations between Motivational Factors and Behavioral Intentions of Medical Health Tourists
Authors: Sancar Tekin
Published: March 2024

This study aims to determine the relationships between medical health tourists' perceptions of motivational factors and their behavioral intentions. In addition, it is aimed to redesign the health investments made with the existing medical technology in accordance with the medical health tourism trends and to develop motivational resources in this application process. The population of the study consists of international patients who have received medical health tourism services from health facilities operating in the province of Istanbul and holding a health tourism facility authorization certificate and who were reached through social media channels (Twitter, Instagram). The sample group consisted of 400 international medical tourists reached through the social media addresses (Twitter, Instagram) of health facilities operating in Istanbul and holding a health tourism facility authorization certificate. The data were collected through online survey technique. The total number of questionnaires evaluated and used in data analysis is 400. Accordingly, the overall average score of the motivational factors of medical health tourists is 3.94±0.58; the highest sub-dimension is "price affordability (4.39±0.75)" and the lowest sub-dimension is country knowledge and awareness (2.67±0.96). At the same time, looking at the evaluations of medical health tourists regarding their behavioral intentions, the general average score of behavioral intention was found to be 4.45±0.73. Based on the results of confirmatory factor analysis, it was revealed that there is a positive relationship between medical health tourists' motivational factors and their behavioral intentions at a high level and that medical health tourists' attitudes regarding their perceptions of motivational factors have a highly significant and positive effect on their attitudes regarding their behavioral intentions. This research has demonstrated that motivational factors can affect how a medical tourist perceives the image of the healthcare provider in the host country. First of all, since medical health tourism, which adds positive value to the economy, is an important preference criterion to be included in strategic plans, it is recommended that the government develop an effective policy in this direction. In addition, health investments in Türkiye with existing medical technology should be supported and redesigned in line with medical health tourism trends.

This study aims to determine the best spacing and the most effective number of seeds per hole against kale land (Ipomoea reptans Poir). This research was carried out in an experimental area located at Jalan Bunga Cempaka, Tanjung Sari, Medan Selayang District, Medan with an altitude of ± 32 meters above sea level from March to April 2022. This study used a factorial randomized block design, with 2 treatment factors. namely : Planting Distance (J1 : 10 x 10 cm, J2 : 15 x 15 cm, J3 : 20 x 20 cm) and number of seeds per hole (B1 : 1 seed, B2 : 2 seed, B3 : 3 seed, B4 : 4 seed). The results of this study showed that treatment with the tiled spacing system significantly increased plant height, increased root wet weight, and increased plant wet weight per plot. The best results for all these parameters were at a spacing of 15 x 15 cm. Treatment of the number of seeds per planting hole significantly increased the number of leaves that grew and the wet weight of the crown. The best results for all these parameters were treated with 4 seeds per hole. The interaction between the spacing of the tile system and the number of seeds per hole gave unrealistic results for all observation parameters.

Perubahan penggunaan lahan dapat terjadi karena faktor perubahan lahan dari satu pola pengelolaan ke pengelolaan lainnya. Daya dukung lahan merupakan kemampuan suatu lingkungan untuk mendukung kehidupan. Salah satu penyebab naik turunnya tingkat daya dukung lahan sawah adalah penurunan hasil pertanian dan meningkatnya jumlah penduduk. Pada analisis tingkat daya dukung lahan sawah dapat dilihat apakah suatu wilayah sudah mampu memenuhi swasembada pangan dan sudah layak atau tidaknya kehidupan di suatu wilayah tersebut. Penelitian ini mengkaji perubahan penggunaan lahan dan daya dukung lahan sawah tahun 2008-2020 di Kabupaten Padang Lawas Utara pada Kecamatan Padang Bolak, Padang Bolak Julu, Portibi dari bulan Januari 2022 hingga April 2022 dengan menggunakan metode analisis deskriptif dari data hasil survey lapangan Badan Pusat Statistik atau arsip tertulis dari laporan hasil penelitian. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perubahan penggunaan lahan yang mengalami penambahan luas lahan dari tahun 2008 hingga 2020 di Kabupaten Padang Lawas Utara yaitu lahan kering campuran sebesar 27.573,28 ha atau 39,39% dan penggunaan lahan yang mengalami penurunan luas lahan yang paling tinggi yaitu lahan semak/belukar sebesar 47.673,21 ha atau 92,35%. Pada lahan sawah mengalami perubahan penggunaan lahan seperti dari lahan pemukiman, pertanian lahan kering, semak/belukar dan tanah terbuka menjadi lahan sawah di tahun 2020. Perubahan penggunaan lahan sawah terjadi karena faktor ekonomi seperti pembukaan lahan tanaman karet dan sawit, lahan ditinggalkan begitu saja oleh pemiliknya dan dialihfungsikan menjadi pemukiman. Status daya dukung lahan di Kabupaten Padang Lawas Utara tahun 2008 dan 2020 yang dapat memenuhi kebutuhan swasembada pangan dan memberikan kehidupan yang layak adalah Kecamatan Padang Bolak (2020), Padang Bolak Julu dan Portibi. Peningkatan hasil produksi pertanian dan jumlah penduduk berpengaruh terhadap naik turunnya tingkat daya dukung lahan pertanian dalam memenuhi swasembada pangan di Kabupaten Padang Lawas Utara.

Authors: Dantes Juan Paolo
Published: March 2024

Cultural planning practice in Canada is under-researched leaving the field difficult to define, scope, and process. Culture, as a concept, is not universally defined across Canadian cultural planning allowing culture plans and related planning processes to vary immensely. Without a universal definition, it is difficult to determine how equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) can be integrated into the practice. Nonetheless, an analysis of 13 culture plans across Canada reveal that EDI has become a more prevalent topic within culture plans in recent years. This analysis sparks a preliminary definition of culture and the role of culture planning in Canada through six jurisdictions of practice including: (1) arts planning, (2) urban planning & design, (3) heritage planning & conservation, (4) planning for diversity, (5) intercultural placemaking, and (6) community cultural development. The research also offers a suite ofrecommendations for cultural and urban planners to advance EDI in planning practice.

Objective: to evaluate the effect of COVID-19 on gastric cancer incidence by component analysis.Methods. The data obtained from the Ministry of Healthcare of the Republic of Kazakhstan concerning GC (Form no. 7) was retrospectively studied by descriptive and analytical epidemiology methods. The component method was used to analyze GC incidence dynamics based on the number of cases from 2011 to 2020.Results. Analyzing 2011 and 2020, we found an apparent reduction in the risk of GC. If in the period before the pandemic the number of cases increased by 0.1%, then during the pandemic the number of cases of registered gastric cancer decreased by 6.7%. The GC incidence decreased from 2019 to 2020. The incidence decreased by −1.160/0000 due to changes in the age structure of the population (∑ΔA=+0.220/0000), the risk of getting GC (∑ΔR=−1.370/0000), and combined impact of age structure and the risk of getting GC (∑ΔAR=−0.020/0000). According to the calculations of the component analysis, 2.757 patients were expected in 2020. Instead, the number of patients decreased to 2.497 due to fewer cases because of the changes in the risk of getting GC.Conclusion. In Kazakhstan, the incidence of gastric cancer tended to decrease. But due to safety measures in connection with the global pandemic in 2020, the incidence rate has decreased even more significantly. Most likely, this was influenced by a decrease in the diagnostic measures carried out to detect gastric cancer. The results of this study are recommended for use in improving the organization of anticancer activities.Keywords: gastric cancer, incidence, trends, COVID-19, Kazakhstan.
Main problems and aspects of HIV prevention
Authors:   Astana Medical University, Mussina Aiman , Aidarkhanova Anar ,   Astana Medical University
Published: March 2024

Migration processes affect not only public health issues, but also public health ethics. The migration policy of the host country should take into account ethical issues at all stages of migration and be based on the principles of humanity, respect for human rights and that adequate public health should not be limited to the borders and citizens of the host country. The UNAIDS Report "On the Global AIDS Epidemic, 2022" reports on the growth of the HIV epidemic in Eastern Europe and Central Asia. And at the same time, regional coverage of HIV prevention and treatment services is assessed as insufficient. The adherence of HIV-infected persons to taking antiretroviral drugs determines the effective suppression of the human immunodeficiency virus and, thereby, reduces the risk of progression of the clinical picture and the risk of HIV transmission. The problems faced by migrants are untimely provision or inability to obtain drugs, low medical and legal literacy, the presence of elements of discrimination and lack of social support in the country of arrival, which become much more acute for migrants with HIV. The presence of a symbiosis of an epidemic of infectious and non-communicable diseases among migrants increases the negative consequences for health, which causes an increase in the number of new cases among migrants. The lack of health insurance is an additional source of difficulties in obtaining medical care for uninsured migrants and has a huge impact on sick patients with chronic diseases. Creating access for migrants to HIV prevention and treatment services in the destination country will not only improve the quality of life of migrants, but also improve public health in general. Currently, issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic are likely to remain a priority, and therefore it is necessary that responses to other infectious diseases, in particular HIV, are not jeopardized. One of the ways to solve this issue is the need to take a step towards the harmonization of legislation between neighboring countries in relation to HIV-positive migrants.Keywords: HIV infection, рrevention, migration, migrant.

Composer Kajiura Yuki and neo-medieval anime soundtracks
Authors: Jocoy Stacey , Hoffer Heike
Published: March 2024

This study semiotically interrogates the historical imaginary evinced in the neo-medievalist musical topoi found in Kajiura Yuki’s distinctive music for anime, which is easily recognised by its eclectic mix of sounds and styles gathered from across the globe. Her early scores employed a compositional method practised in Japanese popular music since the 1990s, which treated the creative act as a process of musical curation. This technique is evident in Kajiura’s handling of medieval Gregorian chant, which - as she has explained in interviews - she did not learn from studies in music history but rather from the German band Enigma and their hit album MCMXC a.D. from 1990, where samples of chant were mixed with Euro dance pop and French rap. The anime Noir from 2001 contains an excellent example of her approach, combining chant-based vocal tracks with energetic dance rhythms. Enigma used chant to call on modern neo-medieval tropes that highlight the pleasures of mysticism, religious devotion, and sexuality freed from morality, and Kajiura has replicated this imagery in Noir, making chant the symbol of an ancient criminal order that both worships and overtly sexualises femininity as embodied by the main female characters. Kajiura’s later style expands the technique of the Gregorian chant-influenced sound she developed in her earlier works: shifting away from Latin lyrics to her invented nonsense language of “Kajiurago” (literally “the language of Kajiura” in Japanese), with her ethereal chant delivered primarily by female voices. This shift is partially due to her collaboration with FictionJunction and Kalafina and is also a reflection of the strong female anime protagonists. Her signature sound enlivens the soundscapes of both Fate/Zero (2011) and the blockbuster anime, Demon Slayer (2019). The track “Brace up and run!” opens each episode of the latter, highlighting female voices chanting Kajiurago as a musically haunting reminder of the otherness of the past.
Video Gaming and Narratives of Love as a potential stance of cultural-political meaning in current societies: A study of It Takes Two, 2021
Authors: Yao Xin
Published: March 2024

In 2021, arriving shortly after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and the social distancing it required, a creative co-op video game, It Takes Two, created by Swedish developer Hazelight Studios and published by American gaming giant Electronic Arts, gained huge popularity on a global scale, including unexpected success in the Chinese market. Although the game is not officially available in China, has no publishing license, and no official promotions, still half of its sales come from China. The game is based on a divorce-themed story, and by integrating cooperative gameplay mechanisms, it enables players to engage in constructing their own “narrative of love” that reflects and coincides with specific cultural indicators. Bringing the dynamics of marriage and divorce to the forefront, the game has generated enormous discussion in mainstream Chinese online platforms, and drew attention to political-cultural notions of what it means to be married and then to struggle and go through the (emotional, practical, and legal) divorce process. The aim of this article is to approach video games such as It Takes Two as a cultural form that should be understood as part of our politics as citizens and individuals in a broad sense, and as part of a wider and more complex connection we have with each other and with society (Street, 2007). Drawing on an analysis of the function of gameplay mechanics in relation to video game setting and structure, this study provides a discussion of the visual and narrative representations of an ostensibly “typical” universal love and divorce issue within the sociocultural context of a Western family, and examines how Chinese audiences make sense of such “lessons” and ideology, and how they work (or might not work) for them. It Takes Two raises awareness of and questions about how games can elicit emotional responses and deep reflection in real life for its players about the vicissitudes of marriage (and love relationships in general) and the culturally specific, at times legal, and broadly visual political implications of their successful or disastrous unfolding.

Published: March 2024

Financial literacy is very important because only financially literate individuals are able to identify the pitfalls of money management. The objectives of the study were to observe how children perceive the role of money in everyday life based on their opinions about possessing money, money management and certain dilemmas about different possibilities to earn money. Expert writings reveal that many parents frequently act as bad role models, because they themselves tend to be poorly informed about their own personal financial issues and choices. Therefore, the best way to start teaching young people about basic economic and financial facts and skills is to incorporate these issues into classroom lectures. The following article features the analysis of a study in which 206 primary school pupils have taken part. Allowance was provided to 130 pupils, which agree, that because they have allowance, are better money manager. The majority of the pupils surveyed were of the opinion that they would be able to manage their finances even better if their parents would talk to them about money more often, and if the parents would also invest more time to convey a better perception of the value of money and things to them. The greatest amount of influence on the pupils’ ability to manage money comes from their parents. School, in the form of an educational institution, also bears a substantial amount of influence concerning this particular matter. The Slovenian education system gives not enough attention to vital issues such as money management and consumer protection. This study can be useful information for teacher about critical point in children money management.
