Authors: Barukčić Ilija
Published: September 2018

Objective: The relationship between Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is investigated.

Methods: A systematic review and re-analysis of some impressive key studies was conducted aimed to answer the following question. Is there a cause-effect relationship between HCMV and GBM? The method of the conditio sine qua non relationship was used to proof the hypothesis whether the presence of HCMV guarantees the presence of GBM. In other words, without HCMV no GBM. The mathematical formula of the causal relationship k was used to proof the hypothesis, whether there is a cause-effect relationship between HCMV and GBM. Significance was indicated by a p-value of less than 0.05.

Results: The studies analysed were able to provide strict evidence that HCMV is a necessary condition (a conditio sine qua non) of GBM. Furthermore, the cause-effect relationship between HCMV and GBM (k ~ + 0.8608, p value < 0.0001) was highly significant.

Conclusion: Without a human cytomegalovirus infection no glioblastoma multiforme. Human cytomegalovirus is the cause of glioblastoma multiforme.

ABSTRACTObjective of this paper is to explain behavior alternatives for employees ,'ho have job dissatisfaction. When accomplishing job task, the religious employees will certainly practice one of their code of belief that working is a kind of religious service. They work vigorously as if tomorrow will he the end of the world. When their organization is going to collapse, the religious employees experience cognitive dissonance (hopes and realities are unsynchronized). They have difficulties in practicing that working is a kind of religious service.There are four behavior alternatives in order to lessening cognitive dissonance i.e. exit or leaving organization (active destructive), neglect (passive destructive), loyal (passive constructive), and voice (active constructive). The voice alternative is the most appropriate behavior for the religious employees, but it less likely to give maximal improvement either for employees or organization.The suggested alternative in this essay is the adapted negotiation alternative which employees have to change and improve themselves. Through improving themselves, they have opportunity either to perform high quality job accomplishment or supporting friends to accomplish their tasks. The adapted negotiation is applying religious service that giving firstly, then we will receive abundance i.e. having creative ability in job accomplishment, ability to act positively in chaos situation, and having good mental health. Changing ourselves is really difficult. However there are precious words which could be our guidance that the crucial factor in achieving success is not the obstacle existence but our unconstructive attitude in facing that obstacle.Key words: Job dissatisfaction, religious service, adapted negotiation

Authors: Starostin Aleksey N.
Published: September 2018

The Agafurovs were the well established Russian Tatar merchants. Before 1917 the Agafurov family had significantly contributed to the cultural development of the city of Yekaterinburg and its Muslim community. The family was actively involved in charity work, financially supported the city «House of worship», the Russian-Tatar public library as well as several schools. The biographies of the some Agafurov family members are rather well researched on the basis of the sources preserved in the Ural libraries. However, researchers still lack a knowledge about what did happen to them since they have left Russia after the 1917 Russian revolution. The article is an attempt to fill in this gap. It deals with what happened to the Agafurov family members during their emigration to China (Harbin) in 1920 – 1940es. The present research is based on the hitherto unknown documents from the former Russian Emigrants in the Manchurian Empire Bureau, which are currently preserved in the State Archive of Khabarovsk Region (Khabarovskii Krai).

Authors: Samorodova Vera V.
Published: September 2018

The article deals with the connections between the radical feelings of a part of the newly Islamized youth on one hand-side and the propaganda increase of Islamic extremists who use pseudo-Islamic slogans in order to provoke public disorder on the other. The author claims that the best results in helping the Muslim youth to avoid the ideological traps can be achieved when the State cooperates with Islamic educational bodies. She points out that the most effective tool to fully achieve this goal can be the well-structured national system of Islamic religious education.

In the present situation the important role in this process plays the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia. Being a State regulator in the field of education and science, the ministry is actively involved in the implementation of the program for the development of Islamic education in Russia.

Oleh itu, objektif utama kajian ini akan (i) menentukan kekerapan penggunaan eufemisme dalam kalangan masyarakat Iban berdasarkan umur mereka dan (ii) untuk mengkaji faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi penggunaan eufemisme dalam masyarakat Iban. Pendekatan kualitatif dan kuantitatif telah digunakan oleh penyelidik dengan menemu bual dua penutur bahasa Iban berumur 50 tahun ke atas berdasarkan teori Allan dan Burridge dan seterusnya, soal selidik telah diedarkan kepada 105 orang responden di Kampung Lebor, Serian, Sarawak. Hasil daripada soal selidik menunjukkan terdapat jurang umur dalam penggunaan eufemisme terutamanya bagi golongan muda iaitu sebanyak 24.8% sebagai yang terendah diikuti dengan golongan dewasa iaitu sebanyak 25.5% manakala, golongan tua mencatatkan penggunaan eufemisme yang tertinggi iaitu sebanyak 39.5%. Di samping itu, kajian ini turut mendapati bahawa faktor penggunaan eufemisme bagi penutur Iban melibatkan perkara seperti berikut, (1) menjaga hati dan perasaan pendengar walaupun dalam keadaan marah; (2) penghormatan kepada adat, kepercayaan dan golongan yang sudah meninggal dunia; (3) perkara yang melibatkan kemudaratan seperti makhluk halus atau haiwan berbahaya serta (4) perkara yang sulit atau aib. © 2018 Penerbit Universiti Malaysia Pahang Keywords: Bahasa tabu; Eufemisme; Masyarakat Iban The Use of Euphemisms among Iban Speakers Abstract Euphemism is used in utterances to ensure that taboo language sounds more polite and appropriate for people at various levels of the society. However, the use of euphemism among speakers these days is limited. Therefore, this study aims to (i) determine the frequency of euphemism use among the Iban community based on their age and (ii) to investigate the factors that influence the use of euphemism in the Iban community. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches were employed to investigate the dominant use of euphemism among Iban communities. Two speakers of Iban language aged 50 years and above were interviewed based on the theory by Allan & Burridge (1991), and a set of questionnaire was distributed to 105 respondents at Kampung Lebor, Serian, Sarawak. The results showed that there was an age gap in the use of euphemism especially for young people at 24.8%, followed by adults at 25.5% while the elderly recorded the highest use of euphemisms at 39.5%. In addition, this study also looked into the factors that led to the use of euphemisms among Iban speakers which include to: (1) mind listeners’ feeling even when one is angry; (2) ensure respect for customs, beliefs and deceased persons; (3) be aware of harmful things such as ghosts or dangerous animals and (4) be aware of embarrassing things.

Authors: Subet Mary Fatimah , Daud Muhammad Zaid
Published: September 2018

Negative perception towards prostitutes globally disabling the study on prostitution goes nowhere further, for example when it comes to the usage of prostitutes’ slangs. This is because the nature of prostitution itself is a taboo and an immoral doing. Every single words uttered by prostitutes depict connotative meanings and thus need in depth understanding to reveal those hidden meanings. Thus this research is carried out mainly to analyse the meanings of these slangs. Analyses are focussed mainly on the denotative and connotative meanings in the field of semantics. These analyses are able to explain clearly the connotative meanings of the slangs. 16 data were obtained from two prostitutes via informal interviews. The prostitutes chose to remain anonymous to maintain their privacy. Findings showed that slangs are used to ease communication between the prostitutes and their clients. Findings also showed that implicit utterances in this domain are understood upon revealing the connotative meanings which are hidden alongside the denotative meanings. In addition, the implicit utterances in this domain are found to be hidden despite explicit meanings are known because slangs in the prostitution domain of language are believed to be obscene and vulgar and thus considered improper to be used in public places. In conclusion, this research is able to put forward a more focussed scientific analysis of prostitutes’ slangs then just merely making general assumptions only. Persepsi negatif dalam kalangan masyarakat terhadap komuniti pelacur di mana-mana di dunia ini membuatkan kajian terhadap dunia pelacuran agak terhad, misalnya kajian bahasa slanga yang dituturkan dalam kalangan mereka. Hal ini demikian kerana dunia pelacuran dianggap sebagai tabu dan tidak bermoral. Setiap perkataan yang dituturkan mempunyai makna konotatif dan memerlukan pemahaman mendalam bagi merungkai makna slanga ini. Oleh itu, kajian ini dilakukan untuk menganalisis makna dalam slanga ini. Analisis data menggunakan kaedah semantik dengan tumpuan analisis adalah terhadap makna denotasi dan konotasi sahaja. Analisis ini dapat menjelaskan makna konotatif dalam slanga ini dengan lebih jelas. Sebanyak 16 data diperolehi melalui rakaman perbualan tidak formal dengan dua orang pelacur, namun nama dan identiti mereka dirahsiakan untuk menjamin privasi mereka. Kajian mendapati, slanga yang digunakan adalah bertujuan untuk memudahkan komunikasi antara pelacur dan pelanggan mereka. Kajian juga mendapati penggunaan ujaran implisit dalam domain ini masih mampu difahami setelah makna denotasi dianalisis untuk merungkai makna konotasinya. Didapati juga, slanga dan ujaran implisit ini masih berselindung di sebalik makna eksplisitnya kerana slanga ini dianggap lucah dan kesat jika dituturkan di tempat awam. Secara keseluruhan, kajian ini dapat melakukan perincian secara lebih saintifik terhadap slanga golongan pelacur ini berbanding hanya membuat andaian umum sahaja.

Interprofessional Teamwork: Are we ready for skills assessment?

Increasing focus on interprofessional collaboration and competency-based assessment requires adequate instruments to assess collaborative practice competencies. We aimed to develop and validate an instrument to assess individual interprofessional teamwork skills among healthcare teams across low-acuity settings. Based on prior qualitative work, we created a 25-item instrument which we pilot tested among 3 sets of interprofessional teams (including learner teams and teams of experienced providers). We collected 397 completed instruments, from 143 raters rating 170 team members across the different teams. Unfortunately, team members consistently assigned their team members high ratings (means of 4.5-4.9 on 5-point scale), prohibiting further meaningful analysis to establish validity. As an explanation of our findings, we postulate that generosity bias and complex interprofessional dynamics played a role. We conclude that cultural barriers that impede effective feedback across professions need to be addressed before development of additional assessment instruments will be of use.
Slanga Kedai Kopi: Satu Analisis Semantik Inkuisitif
Authors: Daud Muhammad Zaid
Published: September 2018

ABSTRAK Kajian makna slanga yang dijalankan oleh sarjana lepas kebanyakannya cukup berhenti di tahap semantik skrip dan semantik resonans sahaja. Oleh itu, kajian ini mengetengahkan penerokaan makna slanga berimplisit menggunakan pendekatan semantik inkuisitif (SI) oleh Nor Hashimah Jalaluddin (2014). Pengkaji cuba menginterpretasikan makna sebenar slanga ini dengan mengambil kira data – transkripsi perbualan di kedai kopi (KK), teori, kognitif, falsafah dan akal budi penuturnya untuk mencapai ke tahap SI. Hal ini demikian kerana tutur kata di kedai kopi ada yang menganggapnya sebagai suatu perbualan yang kosong bagi mengelakkan situasi yang hambar dan janggal di tempat tersebut. Namun, di dalam setiap tutur kata berikut wujudnya suatu makna yang implisit di dalam slanga yang dibicarakan oleh mereka. Kajian ini adalah berbentuk kualitatif dan telah mengaplikasikan teori semantik dengan kaedah inkuisitif. Analisis rangka rujuk silang (RRS) dilakukan terhadap slanga yang mempunyai kesiratan makna daripada 15 data terpilih berdasarkan transkripsi perbualan di KK ini. Gabungan RRS dengan maklumat budaya mendalam mampu menghasilkan penghuraian makna sebenar sesuatu slanga sehingga ke akal budi penuturnya. Dapatan kajian bagi slanga di KK ini antaranya terdiri daripada slanga kedai kopi yang berasosiasi dengan anggota tubuh badan, tumbuh-tumbuhan/buah-buahan, kelakuan manusia dan objek tidak hidup. Dalam masa yang sama penggunaan slanga ini mengandungi bahasa-bahasa figuratif yang masih mampu difahami namun, berselindung di sebalik makna eksplisitnya kerana ada topik yang dibualkan itu dianggap sulit. Oleh itu, perincian makna secara lebih saintifik terhadap tutur kata masyarakat di KK dapat dikemukakan daripada hanya membuat perspektif umum sahaja. Kata kunci: slanga, makna implisit, transkripsi perbualan, transkripsi perbualan, rangka rujuk silang (RRS) How to cite: Muhammad Zaid Daud. (2017).

Abstrak. Kajian ini akan berpandukan kerangka semiotik oleh Pierce (1965) dalam menganalisis peribahasa masyarakat Banjar. Sejumlah tiga data telah diperoleh melalui Ayuhak Bapandik – Supaan Bapandir Bahasa Rangkai, Kada Bapandir Bahasa Pupus yang bersumberkan ular (Serpentes). Hasil kajian mendapati bahawa, perlambangan ular dalam peribahasa masyarakat Banjar merujuk kepada aspek kelemahan berdasarkan makna harfiah peribahasa tersebut dan disokong menggunakan pendekatan semiotik Pierce (1965). Oleh hal demikian, kajian ini mampu menghuraikan pertalian antara pemikiran dan perlambangan yang digunakan oleh masyarakat Banjar dan seterusnya menjawab persoalan tentang lambang ular dalam peribahasa Banjar ini. Kata Kunci— semiotik; peribahasa; masyarakat Banjar; haiwan; ular (Serpentes) Abstract. This study will use the semiotic framework by Pierce (1965) in analysing the Banjar proverbs. A total of three data has been obtained through Ayuhak Bapandik – Supaan Bapandir Bahasa Rangkai, Kada Bapandir Bahasa Pupus related to the snake (Serpentes). The findings show that the snake representation in the Banjar proverb refers to the aspect of weaknesses based on the literal meaning of the proverb and supported by the Pierce semiotic approach (1965). Therefore, this study is able to elaborate the relationship between the thinking and symbolism used by the Banjar community and answering the question on the use of snake symbol in this Banjar proverb. Keywords— semiotic; proverbs; Banjar community; animal; snake (Serpentes)
Design and Preliminary Testing of a Continuum Assistive Robotic Manipulator
Authors: Coulson Ryan , Robinson Megan , Kirkpatrick Max , Berg Devin R.
Published: September 2018

The application of continuum manipulators as assistive robots is discussed and tested through the use of Bendy ARM, a simple tendon driven continuum manipulator prototype. Two rounds of user testing were performed to evaluate the potential of this arm to aid people living with disabilities in completing activities of daily living. In the first round of user testing, 14 able-bodied subjects successfully completed the prescribed task (pick-and-place) using multiple control schemes after being given a brief introduction and one minute of practice with each scheme. In the second round of user testing, subjects (n=3) demonstrated between 29.5 and 48.9 percent improvement in completion time across twelve trials of a peg-in-hole task, and between 8.4 and 33.8 percent improvement across six trials of a task involving opening and closing a drawer. Based on these results, it is posited that continuum manipulators merit further consideration as a safer and more cost-effective alternative to existing commercially available assistive robotic manipulators.

Towards sustainable implementation of maritime spatial planning in Europe: A peek into the potential of the Regional Sea Conventions playing a stronger role
Authors: de Grunt Lisa Simone , Ng Kiat , Calado Helena
Published: September 2018

Traditional silo approaches to managing marine resources and anthropogenic activities are progressively being replaced by systemic and holistic ecosystem-based management. In Europe, authorities are increasingly realising the interconnected complexity and transboundary effects of maritime economic activities on each other and on the marine environment. Facilitating cross-border coordination and cooperation between neighbouring European Member States and their non-EU border countries on the implementation of maritime spatial planning (MSP) is essential in ensuring the sustainable management of the European marine environment. During the last decade, progressive efforts have been dedicated to coordinate national marine planning to ensure that there is a concerted, coherent and sustainable approach regarding the activities taking place in the European seas. The Maritime Spatial Planning Directive (2014/89/EU) states that regional coordination and cooperation between Member States is a requirement in the development and implementation of national maritime spatial plans, and specifically mentions the consideration of the Regional Sea Conventions (RSCs) that are in place in Europe. Through analysing the results of a small-scale survey under European MSP experts, the paper explores whether an increased involvement of the RSCs in regional cooperation on MSP is perceived as possible and/or desirable. The paper considers the (potential) role of the RSCs in the cross-border coordination of major maritime economic activities, as well as in cross-border MSP projects taking place in the European sea basins. The paper pays specific attention to the desirability and perceived challenges of such an increased role for the RSCs.
