Transcending the Self to Transcend Suffering
Authors: Ge Brian H. , Yang Fan
Published: March 2023

Suffering is inevitable in human life. Our perspective paper theorizes on precise mechanisms for how self-transcendence––the state in which an individual looks beyond the self and adopts a larger perspective including concern for others and the world––may help people endure the experience of suffering. From an examination of empirical literature ranging from social psychology to clinical research, we propose that self-transcendence may aid the endurance of suffering along three psychological levels: (1) On the level of affect, the unique profundity and positivity of self-transcendent experiences (e.g., awe, flow, compassion) may supersede and reduce the salience of negative affect arising from suffering (e.g., fear, despair, depressive mood). (2) On the level of cognition, the larger frame of reference provided by self-transcendent thinking may contextualize one’s suffering as something comprehendible, thereby helping to resolve the challenges of making meaning from suffering (e.g., that one’s existing meaning systems are unable to explain the suffering event). (3) On the level of motivation, the drive to fulfill one’s need for self-transcendence may counterbalance the more hedonically-oriented motivations that can promote negative coping strategies in response to suffering (e.g., avoidance, substance abuse). All three mechanisms may also provoke downstream prosocial behaviors that help embed the individual into networks of social support. Altogether, by synthesizing specific mechanisms from affective, cognitive, and motivational self-transcendent processes, our paper establishes a theoretical framework for how self-transcendence may help people endure and transcend suffering, thereby elevating the conditions and experiences of our existence.
The Pulfrich Solidity Illusion: A surprising demonstration of the visual system’s tolerance of solidity violations
Authors: Bai Dawei , Strickland Brent
Published: March 2023

Physical objects behave following the principle of solidity: One solid object cannot pass through another. To what extent does the visual system integrate this physical regularity as a prior constraint? A new variant of the Pulfrich effect demonstrates a surprising degree of tolerance for violations of solidity when pitted against motion and depth cues. When adult participants view a pendulum swinging in the fronto-parallel plane with both eyes (one of which was covered by a light-attenuating filter), they falsely perceive the pendulum as swinging in an elliptical path (known as the “Pulfrich effect”). Here we show that even when the pendulum’s motion takes place entirely behind a solid horizontal bar, observers nevertheless see the pendulum pass through the bar while moving in an ellipse. This illusion suggests that the Pulfrich effect and the underlying stereoscopic depth cues can be robust to object solidity.
Subtitling Strategies of Swear Words and Taboo Expressions from English into Arabic in the American Sitcom Friends: Corpus-Based Study
Authors: Mounadil Tounssi
Published: March 2023

The current study attempted to determine the techniques used to render swear words and the translation quality. The present study’s findings will help address the gaps in the literature and the translation practices related to translating taboo expressions and swear words. The study adopted a mixed method to conduct the analysis. The qualitative techniques of the study focused on identifying the strategies employed when working with audiovisual rendering, while quantitative techniques focused on quality assessment. It is important to note that no quantitative tests were carried out in the analysis to measure the quality of the study. From the investigation, the study confirmed that the most used translation techniques were omission and euphemism. Another reason to use omission as a translation approach is that some swear, and taboo words collide in English but not Arabic. Omission as a tactic may be appropriate if the translation does not create a vacuum on the screen that prevents viewers from thoroughly enjoying the film. Besides, the translator euphemistically interpreted various curses and forbidden phrases to contain such subtle offensiveness and vulgarity. This method is acceptable if it does not alter the essence of meaning. On quality, the study found that most of the subtitles are of low quality. While the approach provides a quantitative assessment, a qualitative assessment is also essential. Previous research on subtitling swears words and prohibited terms needs to be expanded. A paradigm that governs the tactics employed in Arabic-to-English subtitling is also required.
Metropolitan Hybrid Identity in Nadia Hashimi’s A House Without Windows
Authors: Alebrahim Mona Khaled
Published: March 2023

The present article seeks to investigate the effect of colonial domination on Afghan society by analyzing Yusuf’s character in Nadia Hashimi’s A House Without Windows (2016). By theoretically framing the paper at Orientalism, the paper scrutinizes Hashimi’s approach to exemplify the concept of metropolitan hybridity through mimicry and Othering; how Yusuf internalizes the value of the colonizer and believes in the inferiority of his own culture. The paper analyses how Yusuf represents a colonialist ideology that reinforces the binary opposition of the West and East, a hybrid Afghan and the native Afghan. This article engages with debates around Orientalism and the construction of Western power that schematizes the inferiority of the East. It questions the strategies that are used to represent Yusuf as a hybrid Afghan, the strategies that help to produce an Orientalist discourse. The article signifies Yusuf’s imitation as a double articulation strategy: mimicking the Occident while disavowing and Other the native Afghans.
Subverting the Binary Oppositions concerning Female Agency in Alameddine’s An Unnecessary Woman
Authors: Omar Noritah , Alhasan Assia , Zainal Zainor Izat , Bahar Ida Baizura
Published: March 2023

This study explores woman’s agency in Alameddine’s fiction, An Unnecessary Woman (2013) concerning the normative state of agency in a communal structure that controls women’s behaviors and wishes set by suppression. The current study uses the deconstruction theory of French post-structuralists Jacques Derrida and Hélène Cixous, taken from a feminist perspective, which undermines gender dichotomies and interrupts “the unquestionable truth” in Western philosophy. In short, Rabih Alameddine’s fiction reveals the misconceptions about – and misrepresentations of – Arab women in contemporary Arab American fiction and disrupts the binary opposition which resembles the backbone of patriarchy.

Kultureller Wandel für eine große Transformation wie und durch wen? Der Beitrag von Global Citizenship Education und gewaltfreier Kommunikation
Authors: Lang-Wojtasik Gregor , Michalski Ulrike
Published: March 2023

Die Welt befindet sich in fundamentalen Wandlungsprozessen, die schneller vonstattengehen, als von der Weltgemeinschaft befürchtet und denen durch eine große Transformation im Sinne nachhaltiger Entwicklung begegnet werden soll. Um dies möglich zu machen, setzt die Weltgemeinschaft in ihrer Transformationsagenda auf kulturellen Wandel durch Achtsamkeit, Teilhabe und (Selbst-)Verpflichtung. Dieser soll durch weltbürgerliche Change Agents und Bildungsbestrebungen vorangebracht werden. Um die eigene Position in einer Welt mit anderen für die Überlebensfähigkeit des Planeten Erde justieren zu können, brauchen Menschen als potentielle Change Agents geschärfte Reflexionsoptionen, die durch einen Perspektivwechsel zu Transformation beitragen können. Die damit verbundenen Herausforderungen erhoffter und erwartbarer Veränderungen oder Wirkungen werden aus pädagogischer Perspektive beschrieben. Global Citizenship Education als konzeptionelles Angebot sowie gewaltfreie Kommunikation als Haltung und Methode werden auf ihr damit verbundenes Potenzial betrachtet.

Experimental results of the mix design and fresh properties of a proposed concrete for 3D printing are presented in this paper. Layer-by-layer sample components were built by the designed concrete and extruded through a nozzle. The two most critical rheological properties of the designed mix are extrudability and buildability as they are both highly influenced by mix proportion and the presence of superplasticizers. Therefore, this study focused on mix proportion design approaches and laboratory test methods, which generally allowed access to the fresh concrete’s printable properties. Because they are efficient and convenient in construction, materials including cement, fly ash, natural sand, and superplasticizer were selected for mixing proportion analysis. Slump-flow tests, V-funnel tests, buildability tests, and extrudability tests were also employed to access the printability of the proposed mixture in this study. This first analysis on the mixture design approach and laboratory test methods to evaluate the printable properties of 3D-printable concrete can be considered a reference and orientation to further develop 3D printing technology in Vietnam.

In this report, we develop a low-cost cyclic voltammetry platform for electrochemical analyses based on the LMP91000 integrated circuit (IC). The proposed system can be suitable to detect chemicals of interest in food safety or biology. The system includes three main blocks: the electrodes, electrochemical measuring circuit, and data acquisition. An algorithm was also built to process and display the data on the screen. Experiments are carried out with a standard redox solution containing Fe(II)/Fe(III) 5 mM and KCl 0.1 mM to evaluate system performance and make comparisons to the commercial potentiostat. The results show that the obtained signals from the proposed system and the commercial potentiostat device are similar. With applications of the miniaturised potentiostat, a non-enzymatic electrochemical biosensor for urea detection was fabricated on cobalt sulphide materials (CoS) synthesized via a microwave assisted method. The sensing performance for urea was determined by changing the oxidation potential peak of 100 mV. The sensor had a linear range from 1-8 mM corresponding to the urea concentration in blood. The sensor sensitivity was comparable (7.5 μAmM-1cm-2) to some previous publications. With the achieved results, the proposed system demonstrates potential in urea detection and can be a prototype to develop a commercial device for point-of-care testing in the future.

Published: March 2023

The establishment of the surviving arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, Gigaspora margarita Becker & Hall, inoculated in revegetation at the Nukui Dam was studied. The population of AM fungi and AM colonization of three plant species Japanese hill cherry (Prunus jamasakura Sieb. ex Koidz, yamazakura-inoculated plant), eulalia (Miscanthus sinensis Anderss, susuki), and mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris Pampan, yomogi) were investigated to compare inoculated and non-inoculated treatments. The AM colonisation was enhanced in inoculated plots although natural or accidental AM fungi were involved in non-inoculated plots and successfully colonised. Coverage of soil surface was more than 80% and even reached nearly 100% in summer regardless of the soil amendment type.The number of spores and the percentage of colonisation of investigated plant roots, as well as the density of typical AM structures such as arbuscules, auxiliary cells, vesicles, and coiling hyphae by AM fungi in inoculated plots were higher than those in non-inoculated ones. Some spores were Gigaspora andGlomus-inoculated species and were relatively rich in inoculated plots of Yamazakura. There was a significant increase in the number of AM spores in inoculated treatments at a 5% confidence level (ANOVA, p<0.05) in Susuki and Yamazakura. Much more spores of Gigaspora sp.occurred in the rhizosphere soil of Yamazakura and Susuki plants in inoculated plots than in non-inoculated plots (2.33 and 3.73 times, respectively).The colonisation intensity and spore number in the rhizosphere were positively correlated. Therefore, inoculation at an early establishment should be important for the successive development of AM-plant symbiosis formation.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of foetal calf serum (FCS) on the production of bovine embryo in vitro. We conducted two experiments: (1) to evaluate the effect of FCS on the production of bovine embryo in vitroand (2) to evaluate the effect of duration of FCS supplementation on the production of bovine embryo in vitro. In experiment 1, we divided mature bovine oocytes after in vitro fertilization into four embryo culture media: CR1aa, CR1aa+FCS, SOFaa, and SOFaa+FCS. Embryos cultured in CR1aa and SOFaa media supplemented with FCS resulted in a higher cleavage and blastocyst formation rates than when cultured in CR1aa and SOFaa without FCS (74.22 and 82.96% vs. 71.6 and 70.62%; 4.11 and 22.31% vs. 16.98 and 34.51%; respectively, p<0.05). The percentage of hatching blastocysts was highest when embryos were cultured in SOFaa medium supplemented with FCS (10.54%; p<0.05). Embryos cultured in the medium with FCS had a higher the average number of cells/blastocyst than the medium without FCS. The SOFaa+FCS group had a higher average number of cells/embryos than the other groups (94.32;p<0.05). In experiment 2, we added FCS to bovine embryo culture in vitro at the following times: 0 h, 48 h, and 120 h after fertilization. The rate of oocyte cleavage, blastocyst formation, and hatching blastocyst rate of the 0-h group were higher than that of 48-h and 120-h groups (82.96 vs 70.5 and 70.24%; 34.51 vs 24.21 and 23.18%; 10.5 vs 6.12 and 4.13%; respectively, p<0.05). However, there was no difference in the average number of cells/blastocysts between the groups. In conclusion, the addition of FCS to embryo culture media improved the efficiency of bovine embryo production in vitro and in vitro bovine embryo quality. The appropriate time to add FCS to bovine embryo culture in vitro was 0 h after fertilization.

Published: March 2023

Recent research conducted within the veterinary profession has reported higher rates of depression and stress than the general US population. While this decline in mental well-being has been documented in Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) students and veterinary professionals, there is a lack of research on the mental well-being of the pre-veterinary population. This gap led us to conduct a survey in the fall of 2021 utilizing the DASS-21 and ATSPPH-sf inventories to assess the levels of depression, anxiety, stress, and help-seeking stigma in pre-veterinary students to better understand when the decline in veterinary mental well-being begins. A pre-test survey was completed by 233 pre-veterinary students in September, and an identical post-test survey was completed by 184 pre-veterinary students in November. From the pre- and post-test data, depression, anxiety, and stress scores increased as students advanced in academic status during their undergraduate degree. Juniors reported the highest averages of depression, anxiety, and stress compared with their peers. In the post-test, sophomores and juniors exhibited higher rates of depression than freshmen, and juniors and seniors exhibited higher rates of stress than freshmen. Current VMCAS applicants exhibited higher levels of stress than non-VMCAS applicants in the pre-test and lower levels of stress in the post-test. In both the pre-test and post-test data, respondents averaged a neutral attitude toward help-seeking. Based on these results, a decline in pre-veterinary mental well-being occurs as students’ progress in their undergraduate career and should be further studied to assess its impact on Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and veterinary professional well-being.

Despite the significant number of works in the specified direction of scientific intelligence, the issue of expanding the arsenal of service-applied hand-to-hand combat (with an accented use of technical and tactical combat sambo combinations) future officers of institutions of the security and defense sector of Ukraine – an insufficient number of scientific works is devoted to it, which emphasizes the relevance of the chosen direction of scientific research.

The main goal of the study is the development and testing of pedagogical conditions for the formation of the readiness of future officers of the National Guard of Ukraine (NGU) to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy in various conditions of service-combat activities with an emphasis on the use of combat sambo arsenal. During the empirical research, the following methods were used: axiomatic, idealization, historical and logical, descent from the concrete, mathematical and statistical formalization (criterion χ2).

Based on the results of the conducted empirical research, the organizational and pedagogical conditions for the formation of the readiness of future officers of the National Guard of Ukraine to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy in various conditions of service and combat activity were developed and tested (with an accented use of the combat sambo arsenal). The above-mentioned organizational and pedagogical conditions are implemented during 3 main blocks: organizational and diagnostic, corrective and constant. Summarizing the results obtained during the pedagogical experiment, it was established that all the conditions for conducting an empirical study were met. The experimental work had a positive effect on increasing the level of physical and special physical fitness of future NGU officers, which contributed to the increase in the efficiency of their performance of assigned tasks. It is noted that these changes occurred to a greater extent in Eg cadets compared to Kg, and these changes are statistically reliable.

Prospects for further research in the chosen direction of scientific intelligence provide for the improvement of the system of sectional work of future officers of the National Guard of Ukraine from service-applied martial arts.
Using aerial acrobatics and pylon sports as a variable segment in the school physical education program
Authors: Drach T.
Published: March 2023

Secondary schools offer children a variety of opportunities to develop their physical qualities in physical education classes. Pylon sports and aerial acrobatics are not the last place among the currently popular types of physical activity. In order to apply such directions in schools, it is necessary to learn the point of teachers of professional disciplines. To do this, we decided to conduct a survey among physical education teachers of Ukraine regarding their attitude to classes in their educational institutions in these areas. The obtained results make it possible to identify obstacles and necessary changes in the education system in order to apply the latest approaches in physical education. Therefore, the purpose of our study is to determine the attitude of physical education teachers regarding the use of aerial acrobatics and pylon sports as a variable segment in the school program. Due to the conducted research, we were able to determine that the biggest obstacle to the application of these directions in schools is the lack of the necessary equipment and appropriate professional training of physical education teachers. In order to introduce these areas into the physical education of primary school students, according to the respondents, additional disciplines should be introduced for the training of physical education teachers, halls should be equipped with appropriate professional equipment, and optional classes should be organized in schools for those who wish to engage in these areas.

Zeros Removal with DCT Image Compression Technique
Authors: Baithoon Nushwan Yousif
Published: March 2023

The discrete cosine transform (DCT) is a method for converting a signal into plain frequency components. It is extensively used in image compression. In this paper a new technique is proposed, namely ZRDCT (Zeros Removal with DCT) which is based on a lossy compression, and used to enhance image data compression.Image quality is measured impartially, using peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) or picture quality scale, and individually using perceived image quality with compression factor (CF) being the main theme of this paper, taking into consideration the preservation of well PSNR outputs.Â The performance of DCT compression generally degrades low bit-rates mainly because of the underlying block-based DCT scheme. Experimental results demonstrated the effectiveness of the ZRDCT approach, which enhanced the performance of the conventional DCT image compression methods, by investigating and interrogating the whole image and hence enforcing mechanisms for finding possible redundant information and therefore the removal of unnecessary data which lead to an improvement in CF without upsetting PSNR.The new technique also proved to have low distortions with good quality PSNR, commendable CF and good execution time, when compared to other various DCT schemes and with some wavelet based image compression

The Roman Catholic Church of Chile: a comprehensive description of the majority religious organization
Authors: Yankovskaya Anna
Published: March 2023

A comprehensive description of the national Roman Catholic Church is presented on the example of one of the Latin American countries. Based on the synthesis of initial information and analytical processing of data presented on the official electronic web-sites of individual dioceses of the National Catholic Church of Chile, the main types of social activities of the majority religious institute of the country are revealed. The results prove the fact that despite the sharp decline in adherents of Catholicism in the population structure in recent decades, the Church remains an influential public institution that duplicates some functions of the state. Providing material support to the poor and vulnerable segments of the population, advisory assistance in the adaptation of immigrants, vocational training and retraining of those who need employment, conducting public educational and cultural events, etc. are highlighted among the types of social responsibility implemented by the Roman Catholic Church of Chile.
The territorial and administrative structure of the religious organization under consideration is reflected in detail. The coefficient of territorial concentration/diversification` is calculated. Based on the results obtained, it is concluded that there is a high degree of unevenness in the placement of church parishes of the Roman Catholic Church of Chile within the country.

Artificial intelligence technologies and the rise of cyber threats in Latin America
Authors: Vinogradova Ekaterina
Published: March 2023

Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies have been a real revolution and breakthrough in the world of virtual communication for modern society. Latin American countries are just beginning to adopt this type of technology to achieve the smart government paradigm and accelerate the pace of building a digital economy. A number of countries in the Latin American region are investing in strategies to develop AI technologies, focusing on improving economic development, with significant efforts to create a broader cooperation network at the regional level. The Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) also has been striving for several years to harness the huge potential of AI, including the digital transformation of the public sector.
The global concept of cybersecurity becomes particularly relevant due to the increasing use of cyberspace as a virtual environment for political, economic, social and cultural interaction. To date, cybersecurity has become an important issue for national strategies of Latin American countries due to the increasing incidence of malicious use of AI in the political and economic life of the region.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate main dimensions of national strategies for the implementation of AI in the public sector in Latin America and to identify the main cyber tools aimed at undermining national security and putting political actors out of work.
Tax legislation of “white” Siberia during the Russian Civil War
Authors: Medvedev Valentin G.
Published: March 2023

The article examines the problem of state regulation of the tax sphere by the anti-Soviet governments of Siberia, which is poorly studied in historical and legal science. It is revealed that the Temporary Siberian and Russian governments carried out tax administration on the basis of pre-revolutionary legislation, making adjustments to it adequate to the conditions of the time. The pre-revolutionary tax apparatus was used to collect tax revenues. It was found that in the conditions of inflation, the flow of funds to the treasury was insufficient, and the legislator provided for an increase in the rates of existing taxes, the introduction of new sources of taxation and the revision of tax benefits, while the main attention was paid to the collection of indirect taxes. It is determined that in the conditions of widespread reluctance of the population to pay taxes, some positive effect was given by legislative innovations in the collection of income tax from employees, the function of collecting which was assigned to the administration of enterprises and institutions. It is revealed that the municipal authorities, whose budgets were formed according to the residual principle, were in the worst situation. It is stated that the Russian government was forced to widely use forceful methods of tax collection, involving police structures and military teams for this purpose, whose brutal actions caused discontent among the population, and which negatively affected the legitimacy of the government.
