Published: September 2023

Esta investigação qualitativa, sob a técnica do estudo de caso, é um extrato de outra maior, realizada em 2020, em Porto Alegre/RS, com idosos não-senis, com idades entre 65 e 85 anos, a partir de um roteiro estruturado com onze questões que buscou identificar os hábitos de mídia dos interlocutores e as editorias jornalísticas de maior interesse deles. Para realizar este estudo foram entrevistados 10 participantes, 5 homens e 5 mulheres. Este texto reflete, em especial, as aproximações e os distanciamentos identificados nas respostas dos membros do grupo de idosos radicado na cidade de Porto Alegre/RS, ampliando as observações a partir das informações emitidas por gêneros distintos: masculino e feminino. Pode-se adiantar que, apesar de 60% das integrantes do grupo feminino apresentarem nível superior e haverem atuado no mercado de trabalho profissional, há distanciamento entre os interesses sobre os conteúdos das diversas editorias jornalísticas indicadas por elas em relação àquelas indicadas pelos participantes do gênero masculino, principalmente quando o tema é família, mais importante às participantes do gênero feminino.
O OLHAR SOBRE A VELHICE
Authors: PETRONI Vivian Souto
Published: September 2023

Objetivo: Este trabalho tem como objetivo levar o leitor a pensar sobre a velhice. Como ocorreu a construção do que a sociedade atual tem como ser velho, assim como para onde vamos caminhar. Métodos: Foi realizado levantamento bibliográfico do período de 1996 a 2018 nas bases de dados Scielo. Resultados: O processo da construção do olhar sobre o envelhecimento que temos hoje vem de uma construção desde a revolução industrial onde o poder e a gloria do indivíduo foi voltada para o mais capaz de produzir, de gerar lucros, a idade com maior desempenho laboral e não mais sobre o detentor de conhecimento e experiência de vida. O importante era a força de trabalho e o velho começa a ser olhado como não contributivo para a sociedade, descartável. Conclusão: A velhice não é definida por simples cronologia, mas pelas condições físicas, funcionais, mentais e de saúde das pessoas, o que equivale a afirmar que podem ser observadas diferentes idades biológicas e subjetivas em indivíduos com a mesma idade cronológica e que a forma pela qual cada indivíduo vai entender seu processo de envelhecimento é único e complexo em si.
CONTEXTUALIZAÇÃO SOBRE A CURADORIA DE CONHECIMENTO NO MEIO ACADÊMICO-CIENTÍFICO: SUBSÍDIOS PARA A SELETIVIDADE DE INFORMAÇÕES E PARA A GERAÇÃO DO SABER NA PRÁTICA DOS DOCENTES
Authors: Pires Raimundo Nonato Pinheiro , Reisdorfer Grasiele , Rodrigues Michele Aparecida Cerqueira
Published: September 2023

A curadoria, originária da prática museológica, evoluiu para uma práxis educacional expandida, sendo central na pesquisa, conhecimento e aprendizado. No contexto acadêmico, a curadoria de conhecimento envolve a identificação, seleção, organização, interpretação e compartilhamento de informações confiáveis, promovendo uma filtragem necessária no cenário de sobrecarga de dados. O objetivo do artigo é explorar o papel da curadoria de conhecimento no contexto acadêmico-científico, destacando sua importância, desafios e aplicações. Apesar de necessária, a curadoria acadêmica ainda enfrenta desafios, incluindo a infoxicação devido à sobrecarga de informações digitais, a diversidade de formatos de informação e a necessidade de acessibilidade. Neste sentido, a colaboração e a flexibilidade são fundamentais para lidar com a interdisciplinaridade e as mudanças tecnológicas constantes. Contudo, pode-se avaliar que, na prática docente, a curadoria de conhecimento melhora a personalização da aprendizagem, economiza tempo e promove a colaboração entre educadores.
Examining the Professional Excellence Programme: Inducting University Teachers into the Higher Education System in South Africa
Authors: Matope Samson , Baleni Zwelijongile
Published: September 2023

The obligation to increase the standard of instruction and learning falls on academic developers. A crucial part of academic staff development at institutions of higher learning is the induction of academics who are primarily subject matter specialists without the pedagogical abilities to teach effectively in the higher education environment. This qualitative essay investigated how the Professional Excellence Programme (PEP) might be utilised as an induction Short Learning Programme (SLP) for new academics. After finishing the brief SLP, the inductees were given a questionnaire to evaluate the modules (Teaching and Learning, Curriculum Development, and Assessment in Higher Education) and qualitative data was gathered. The study was framed by Wegner’s social learning theory. The research showed that the PEP programme can be an efficient programme to develop academics into university teachers. Since the SLP was accepted by all participants in the study, the study recommended that the Directorate of Teaching and Learning should develop the PEP programme into a credit-bearing postgraduate diploma in higher education at NQF Level 8, which is equivalent to an honours degree.

Keywords: Professional excellence, Induction, University teacher, Transformative pedagogy, Academic developer

A new jewel-like species of the pill-millipede genus Sphaerobelum Verhoeff, 1924 (Diplopoda, Sphaerotheriida, Zephroniidae) from Thailand
Authors: Srisonchai Ruttapon , Likhitrakarn Natdanai , Sutcharit Chirasak , Backeljau Thierry , Pimvichai Piyatida
Published: September 2023

A new species of the giant pill millipede genus Sphaerobelum is described: Sphaerobelum turcosasp. nov. from the northeastern part of Thailand. Species delimitation is based on morphological characters and COI sequence data. The new species can be clearly discriminated from congeners by its greenish-blue body color, the face mask-like appearance of the thoracic and anal shields jointly when rolled up, and the combination of the following four characters: (1) the coxa of the second leg laterally with a sharp and long process, (2) the tarsi of legs 4–21 with 6–7 ventral spines, (3) the anterior telopods consisting of four conspicuous telopoditomeres, and (4) the immovable, slender (not strongly humped) and distally curved finger of the posterior telopods without a membranous spot. The interspecific COI sequence divergence between the new species and other Sphaerobelum species ranges from 17% to 23% (mean 20%). The intergeneric COI sequence divergence between the new species and Zephronia species ranges from 18% to 21% (mean 20%). The relationships among Sphaerobelum and Zephronia species based on the COI sequence data were not resolved in this study. Sphaerobelum turcosasp. nov. is restricted to limestone habitat in Loei province and is probably endemic for the Thai fauna.
Devenir étoile du Ballet de l’Opéra de Paris
Authors: Laillier Joël
Published: September 2023

Le destin de danseur ou danseuse étoile se présente toujours sur le registre du « talent » ou du « don », comme pour rendre raison de ce qui, justement, échappe à la raison. Au lieu de substituer à cette croyance une explication causale, l’article, qui se centre sur le Ballet de l’Opéra de Paris, la prend comme objet pour révéler les ressorts de ce qui s’apparente véritablement à une forme de reconnaissance charismatique, dans laquelle l’institution joue un rôle fondamental. En partant de la théorie du charisme élaborée par Max Weber, l’article montre ainsi que la fabrique institutionnelle du charisme ne se limite pas au charisme de fonction mais concerne également la forme la moins institutionnalisée de charisme en apparence : le charisme personnel. L’institution agit autant sur les représentations des un·es et des autres que sur les futur·es élu·es, en rendant légitime leurs aspirations et en les autorisant à habiter un rôle d’étoile. Elle assure à la fois la production d’une performance scénique différentielle et sa réception comme le résultat d’un charisme personnel.
L’américanisation des sciences humaines et sociales françaises ? Une cartographie des traductions de l’anglais, de l’allemand et de l’italien en français (2003-2013)
Authors: Sapiro Gisèle
Published: September 2023

En sciences humaines et sociales plus qu’en sciences, la traduction d’ouvrages joue un rôle majeur dans la circulation internationale des idées. Cependant, les chances pour un livre d’être traduit varient selon divers facteurs, dont la centralité de la langue d’origine, le capital symbolique de l’auteure et celui de son éditeur. Cette étude sur les ouvrages de sciences humaines et sociales traduits en français entre 2003 et 2013 révèle l’état des rapports de force inégaux entre les trois principales langues dont ils proviennent : l’anglais, l’allemand et l’italien. Il en ressort notamment que, si la tradition allemande continue de constituer une valeur dans le sous-champ de l’édition de sciences humaines et sociales en France, on observe la quasi-disparition d’auteurs contemporains allemands, au profit de chercheures anglo-américains. Ce constat tend à confirmer l’idée d’une hégémonie étasunienne, qu’il faut cependant relativiser. L’analyse des préfacières révèle, par ailleurs, différentes stratégies éditoriales d’importation élaborées par les intermédiaires culturelles (éditeurices, agentes littéraires), dans ce sous-champ : économique, politique, symbolique et académique.
Les revues françaises en sciences humaines et sociales : disciplines et pratiques éditoriales
Authors: Brun Éric
Published: September 2023

Cet article propose une analyse de la structuration et des transformations du paysage éditorial des revues françaises en sciences humaines et sociales. Il s’appuie sur une base de données répertoriant les éditeurs de plus de 200 revues classées par l’Agence d’évaluation de la recherche et de l’enseignement supérieur (Aéres) au début des années 2010 dans six ensembles disciplinaires : économie-gestion, sociologie-démographie, science politique, anthropologie, psychologie et philosophie. Dans un premier temps, l’article souligne la forte dispersion du paysage éditorial (composé pour une part importante de petites structures non lucratives, n’éditant qu’une seule revue), sa variation d’une discipline à l’autre (d’une façon qui rappelle le clivage entre facultés), ainsi que les tendances à la concentration industrielle du secteur. Dans un second temps, l’article revient sur la question de la numérisation et des politiques institutionnelles en faveur de l’accès ouvert, qui ont affecté, notamment, les formes de diffusion des revues à partir des années 2010, période marquée par la montée en puissance des plateformes Cairn et OpenEdition. L’article défend ici que, pour l’heure, ces mutations se sont articulées aux logiques anciennes du secteur et n’ont pas (encore) produit un véritable chamboulement de l’écosystème des revues.
Understanding Sustainability and How It Impacts People of Color
Authors: Richardson Kevin
Published: September 2023

By definition, sustainability means meeting personal needs without jeopardizing the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. In that context, sustainability calls for the Earth's environmental systems to be balanced while ensuring that natural resources are consumed at a rate that they are naturally replenished. Researches on sustainability and environmental racism expound on the overall impacts on blacks by showing that this group is more highly affected by pollution than the white population. Scholars note that the main issue with environmental racism is that most American citizens hold onto the belief that everybody is subject to equal opportunities. Such an approach is detrimental since the concept of environmental injustice is treated as a personal choice and not a matter of racial discrimination. The lack of a clear understanding of environmental racism undermines all efforts to fix the problem, which entails focusing on race as a notable predictor of an individual's exposure to environmental hazards.
An Analysis of How Cognitive Cities Better Address Sustainability and Equity Concerns in Society as Compared to Smart Cities
Authors: Richardson Kevin
Published: September 2023

More than half the population today lives in urban areas. The UN predicts with 80% confidence that the global population will get to between 9.6 billion and 12.3 billion people within the 21st century. Population increase leads to more people in the city. More people in the city translates to new challenges that need addressing. When addressing the new challenges, cities evolve by improving the efficiency of services. Eventually, cities change in both structure and composition. In helping show how the cities have changed, the authors utilized the industrial revolution theory which occurred in stages from the first industrial revolution to Industry 5.0. Just like the industrial revolution, cities evolve in stages with the latter stage using the success of the former stage as building blocks. Smart cities which are characterized by progressive city plans and state-of-the-art infrastructure act as a building block for cognitive cities which are characterized by the ability to have connectivity, and common data architecture for people to share and drive innovation.
Analysis of ESG in Building New Business Models
Authors: Richardson Kevin
Published: September 2023

According to researchers, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) has been discussed extensively, specifically as a socially responsible investment. Regardless of this exploration, researchers have failed to critically examine the concept of ESG integration and how it impacts the transformation of business models from conventional to more sustainable ones. The chapter utilized a meta-analysis to critically examine previous research findings. The data collection method involved analyzing qualitative and quantitative research that allowed deriving generalized conclusions about ESG and building sustainable business models based on the existing literature. ESG integration benefits the pertinent firms. The advantages are apparent with the study showing that ESG integration results in positive returns on equity and assets. Organizations with strong ESG performance are ranked as best-performing firms and have a lower cost of debt. This benefit means that firms should focus on ESG integration and building new business models resulting in improved financial performance.
Solfeggio Teaching Method Based on MIDI Technology in the Background of Digital Music Teaching
Authors: Shen Shuo , Wu Kehui
Published: September 2023

This research aims at teaching solfeggio and ear training in college music and proposes a teaching method for college music note recognition that combines the musical instrument digital interface (MIDI) and hidden Markov models (HMM). The experiment showcases that after preprocessing the music frequency sample signal using HMM model, it achieves the target accuracy after 20 times of training. From the HMM transition probability matrix diagram estimated from all training data sets, it can be seen that the transition matrix is close to the diagonal matrix. This indicates its high transfer efficiency. This study compares the HMM model with the other two algorithms, and the results show that its accuracy rate is about 99.56%. The probability of insertion errors and elimination errors is 0.52% and 2.58%. This is superior to the other two algorithms. In summary, the HMM model proposed in the study has extremely strong performance in the teaching of music note feature recognition in universities and can provide better teaching methods.

Published: September 2023

Manufacturing effectiveness is highly demanded in the aerospace industry; therefore, hybrid manufacturing technologies have gained considerable attention in order to overcome the limitations of a single manufacturing technology. Actually, the hybridisation of different manufacturing processes consists in taking advantage of the strengths of each process and compensating the weaknesses. In this work, the Laser Directed Energy Deposition (L-DED) process is hybridised with forging. The L-DED is an Additive Manufacturing technology which enables to add material on existing parts in order to add geometrical details or repair damaged areas. Thereby, the flexibility of the L-DED can be combined with the high-productivity and lower cost of the forging. A nickel-based superalloy employed in aeronautical applications is selected, the Inconel 718, which is suitable for high-temperature applications, such as the turbine casing of jet engines. Depending on the manufacturing process and final heat treatment, the Inconel 718 presents different properties. Hence, simulation tools are considered as a key element for the material properties characterization, where digital testing is becoming a fundamental pillar. Thermal and mechanical simulations with FEM enable the evaluation of the complete thermal history of the part and the resulting mechanical behaviour in-service conditions. In this work, the feasibility of hybridising forging and L-DED is studied. For this purpose, the resulting properties of the parts manufactured by each individual process are quantified and the interaction between both processes is analysed. Moreover, a test part is manufactured to show the hybridisation capabilities. Afterwards, to determine the behaviour of such demonstrator, a digital testing is performed by means of finite element modelling. Both thermal and structural analysis are carried out and the results obtained for the hybrid component are compared with those of an entirely forged part, focusing on a critical assessment of the performance of each manufacturing approach.

Time‐reversal microwave focusing using multistatic data
Authors: Song Won‐Young , Jeon Soon‐Ik , Son Seong‐Ho , Lee Kwang‐Jae
Published: September 2023

Various techniques for noninvasively focus microwave energy on lesions have been proposed for thermotherapy. To focus the microwave energy on the lesion, a focusing parameter, which is referred to as the magnitude and phase of microwaves radiated from an external array antenna, is very important. Although the finite‐difference time‐domain (FDTD)‐based time‐reversal (TR) focusing algorithm is widely used, it has a long processing time if the focusing target position changes or if optimization is needed. We propose a technique to obtain multistatic data (MSD) based on Green's function and use it to derive the focusing parameters. Computer simulations were used to evaluate the electric fields inside the object using the FDTD method and Green's function as well as to compare the focusing parameters using FDTD‐ and MSD‐based TR focusing algorithms. Regardless of the use of Green's function, the processing time of MSD‐based TR focusing algorithms reduces to approximately 1/2 or 1/590 compared with the FDTD‐based algorithm. In addition, we optimize the focusing parameters to eliminate hotspots, which are unnecessary focusing positions, by adding phase‐reversed electric fields and confirm hotspot suppression through simulations.
Konwencja UNESCO o ochronie podwodnego dziedzictwa kulturowego z 2001 roku a prawo polskie. Postulaty de lege ferenda w zakresie regulacji wydobywania zabytków z morza
Authors: Kowalski Wojciech
Published: September 2023

The aim of this article is to formulate de lege ferenda conclusions that result from Poland’s ratification of the 2001 UNESCO Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage. After a brief analysis of the principles of this Convention and comparing them with the relevant provisions of Polish Law, the author proposes five fundamental changes that should be made to this Law for greater effectiveness. These concern, in particular, the regulation of archaeological research, including the procedures intended for foreign entities and the participation of the Minister of Culture and National Heritage. Moreover, the article addresses the exclusion of the application at sea of the provisions on the search for „hidden or abandoned movable monuments” and the search for „shipwrecks and their remains”. Finally, it recommends moving the procedure for „searching shipwrecks” to the statutory level and unambiguously defining the legal status of monuments extracted from the sea, which according to the Convention „cannot be traded”.

Nie tylko muzyka. Kolekcje dzieł sztuki Filharmonii Pomorskiej im. I.J. Paderewskiego w Bydgoszczy
Authors: Wysocka Agnieszka
Published: September 2023

During 1954-1958 the building of the Pomeranian Philharmonic was erected in Bydgoszcz. From the 1970s its interiors were decorated with sculptures, tapestries and graphic artworks by contemporary Polish artists. Sculptures additionally stood in front of the building and in the park, creating an outdoor gallery of virtuosos and composers. The originator of this collection was the long-time director of the Philharmonic, Andrzej Szwalbe (1923-2002). The idea of combining music with various fields of art was implemented consistently until the 1990s. For the “temple of music” in Bydgoszcz, works were prepared by artists such as Barbara Zbrożyna, Adam Myjak, Michał Kubiak, Józef Makowski (sculptures), Kiejstut Bereźnicki, Józefa Wnukowa, Magdalena Heyda-Usarewicz, and Tadeusz Brzozowski (tapestry designs). The “Collection of Painting and Graphic Art Tadeusz Brzozowski” includes works by – among others – Magdalena Abakanowicz, Jan Tarasin, Stefan Gierowski. The works not only decorate the interiors, but also document the achievements of Polish artists in the 1970s and 1990s. The art collection has been on the Register of Historic Places since 1990.
Towards a new archival science. Anthropologising the archive and the archival materials
Authors: Piasek Wojciech
Published: September 2023

The article puts forward a proposal of new archival science – anthropologised archival science. The new archival science is discussed in the context of changes in the understanding of archives as the practice of collecting, storing and providing access to archival collections. The modern understanding of the archives has been grounded in the naturalistic approach to thinking about the world and people. The key factor shaping the naturalistic understanding of archives was the socio-cultural context, specifically the emergence of nation states and bureaucracy. In the 19th century, the archive, just like other elements of bureaucracy, came to be understood as free from context, discussion, ideology, or in a broader sense, culture. The 20th century has changed but little in such an approach to archival science. Only slight adjustments were made. The proposal for a new archival science goes beyond these adjustments. It is a shift towards its cultural understanding, on the grounds of anthropological understanding of culture.

Resumo: O ensaio aborda a relação entre formação docente e sociedade como expressão específica do nexo político entre universidade e sociedade. Referenciado na lógica dialética e fundamentado nos conceitos de política e de relações de poder de Antonio Gramsci, defendemos que a problemática formação docente e impacto social pode ser analisada como produto das relações de poder presentes na sociedade e na universidade. Nessa linha, analisamos a especificidade da universidade contemporânea e seu nexo com sociedade de classes. Em seguida, abordamos as tensões que constituem a formação docente na realidade brasileira elegendo alguns exemplos. Como conclusão, assinalamos que o impacto social da e na formação docente pode ser mediada pela democracia e pela defesa do direito social como elementos de construção de uma sociedade emancipada. Além disso, situamos a relevância da pesquisa na formação docente para o processo de mudança.
Geodiversity and abiotic ecosystem services in parks from the far north of Minas Gerais: educational and geotourism potential
Authors: Pressi Leonardo Frederico , Castro Paulo de Tarso Amorim
Published: September 2023

The state parks from the far north of Minas Gerais are strategic for raising society's awareness about the importance of nature. Considering that in the State Parks of Montezuma, Caminho dos Gerais (PECGerais), and Serra Nova e Talhado (PESNT), there are important abiotic ecosystem services, geodiversity must be incorporated into environmental interpretation activities. In this work, sites intended for public use were evaluated regarding their educational and touristic potential related to geodiversity and the degradation risk. Geosites and geodiversity sites were selected in which geological processes can be approached by weaving relationships with biodiversity and cultural aspects to encourage visitors to have a holistic view of nature. These sites also encourage discussion on various Sustainable Development Goals – SDGs. Considering that they are located in a region with a semi-arid climate and that these parks are essential for the water supply in their surroundings, aspects related to water resources are of great relevance and  may unequivocally be addressed in all selected sites, especially in the Talhado Canyon (PESNT), Gameleiras Dam (PECGerais) and in the Lagarto Rock (PEM). The intrinsic relationship between geodiversity and biodiversity is observed at the Peatlands of Gerais Santana (PESNT), Vereda das Piranhas Trail (PECGerais) and the Lavra Trail (PEM) sites. The relationship between geodiversity and cultural aspects of the region are evident in all selected sites. The high educational and geotourism potential, associated with the low degradation risk, indicates that all these sites are useful for public use activities.

GROUND PENETRATING RADAR IN CIVIL ENGINEERING APPLICATION: CASE STUDY OF MULTISTOREY BUILDING FOUNDATION SITE TO MAPING SUBSURFACE FEATURES AT THE CENTER OF KARBALA GOVERNORATE, IRAQ
Authors: Al-Heety Ahmed J. , Al-Khalidy Amer A. , Al-Khafaji Ammar J.
Published: September 2023

The reconstruction of holy shrines and religious places in Iraq was developed after 2003. At the same time, some geotechnical problems are urgently waiting to be solved. Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is a noninvasive technology that has many applications including subsurface geology, archeology, engineering and environmental studies. It is very effective in solving some engineering and geological problems and detecting buried objects under the ground and helping to map subsurface geological structures, subsurface soil conditions and groundwater contaminants.This paper demonstrates the utility of using GPR for mapping and locating subsurface features of multistorey building foundation site at the center Karbala district, Karbala governorate. A series of GPR profiles were acquired on a proposed multistory building site GPR survey has been carried out along fifteen profiles, ten longitudinal parallel profiles and the other profiles are transversal. In this study different antennas were chosen to conduct the survey, the antenna frequencies of 450 MHz and 750 MHz were used. The data were performed by using a commercial GPR system A MALÅ ProEx SystemTM from MALA Geoscience and we are usingRadExplorer software for processing the data. The profiles reflect a lot of subsurface features. Most of the main subsurface features anomalies due to weak zones. These zones spreading in the front and especially in the center of a building starts from under the foundation to a depth of approximately six m. The water table depth at the site was defined from GPR radargrams at a depth of (2.7 and 3.5 m). Through years of practical experience with GPR surveys, we have summed up a suitable technique to solve various engineering and geotechnical engineering problems with GPR in Iraq.

Authors: Ho Jin Yang , Tuang Valerie , Teo Desmond B , Ponnamperuma Gominda
Published: September 2023

Introduction: Professionalism is a key quality that medical students should possess, but it is difficult to define and assess. Current assessment tools have room for improvement. This study aimed to design and validate a self-assessment tool to assess professionalism among medical students.

Method: A questionnaire was created based on 10 tenets of professionalism from the Charter on Medical Professionalism jointly published by the American Board of Internal Medicine Foundation, American College of Physicians Foundation and European Federation of Internal Medicine, along with input from Singapore guides. The self-administered questionnaire was administered to Year 2 to 5 students from Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore in a voluntary, anonymised manner in the academic year of 2019/2020. Construct validity and internal reliability were evaluated using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Cronbach’s alpha, respectively.

Results: There was a total of 541 respondents. After removing incomplete responses, 504 responses were included. Following PCA, a 17-item questionnaire, titled “Medical Professionalism: A Self-assessment Tool” (MPAST), with a 5-component solution was obtained. The 5 components were commitment to: (1) patient’s best interest, (2) honesty and integrity, (3) professional competency, (4) patient safety and care, and (5) educational responsibilities. Their Cronbach’s alpha value ranged from 0.540 to 0.714, with an overall Cronbach’s alpha value of 0.777.

Conclusion: MPAST is valid, reliable, practical, and is the first validated self-assessment tool to assess professional attributes and behaviours among medical students, to our knowledge.

Introduction: Perinatal depression and anxiety are public health concerns affecting approximately 1 in 10 women in Singapore, with clear evidence of association with various adverse outcomes in mother and child, including low birthweight, preterm birth and negative impact on infant neurodevelopment, temperament and behaviour. A workgroup was formed to develop recommendations to address the perinatal mental health needs of women with depression and anxiety. The approach was broad-based and aimed to incorporate holistic methods that would be readily applicable to the network of care providers supporting childbearing women.

Method: The Grading and Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) Evidence to Decision framework was employed to draw these guidelines. Workgroup members—comprising experts in the field of perinatal mental health and obstetric medicine—deliberated on the public health needs of the target population, and reviewed literature published from 2001 to 2022 that were relevant to improve the well-being of women with depression and anxiety during the preconception and perinatal periods.

Results: A consensus meeting was held involving a wider professional network, including family physicians, paediatricians, psychiatrists, social services and the Health Promotion Board in Singapore.

Conclusion: Ten consensus statements were developed, focusing on the overall aim of achieving optimal perinatal mental health for women with depression and anxiety. They relate to awareness and advice on preconception mental health, screening and assessment, optimising care and treatment. Special considerations were recommended for women who suffered severe maternal events, tailoring care for adolescents and women with special needs, and addressing infant mental health needs.

Medical professionalism refers to the set of values, behaviours, and ethical principles that guide the conduct of medical professionals in their interactions with patients, peers and the broader healthcare system. From a training perspective, it is easier to focus on striving to achieve excellence in medical practice and meeting “industry” accepted standards than to remediate unprofessional behaviours of practitioners.1 Medical professionalism encompasses a commitment to providing high-quality patient care, maintaining ethical standards, and upholding the trust and respect of patients and the community. This is essential for ensuring patient safety, promoting effective healthcare delivery, and preserving the integrity of the medical profession. Systematic reviews published on unprofessional behaviours of medical students, such as failure to engage, dishonest and disrespectful behaviours, and lack of self-awareness have shown to have a negative impact on peers, teachers and patients leading to poor teamwork and provision of quality care.2

The study aimed to determine the perceived impact of National Service Training Program (NSTP-LTS) on the behavioral formation of the first-year education students of Pamantasan ng Cabuyao. This study employed a descriptive research design method using questionnaires as its principal tool. The study's respondents were the 231 first-year education students of Pamantasan ng Cabuyao enrolled in the Academic Year 2022-2023. Data were treated statistically using weighted mean and Pearson r. The study's findings suggest that NSTP-LTS significantly impacts education students regarding selfimprovement, performance, and community involvement. Furthermore, the student's level of behavioral formation is much observed. A significant relationship was noted in the perceived impact of National Service Training Program – LTS on the behavioral appearance of the students. It was therefore concluded that the higher the perceived impact of the students on NSTP–LTS, the more behavioral formation of the students is observed. The NSTP Coordinator and instructors should implement activities promoting experiential learning to increase student community involvement.
