Authors: Ehwarieme Timothy A , Ugboduma Mercy , Josiah Uzezi
Published: February 2022

Background: Sickle cell anemia is prevalent in the society with pain as the key factor affecting the life of the individuals with the disease. A large number of sickle cell patients visit the health care facilities due to episode of pain crisis. Aim: This study assesses pain coping strategies used and its perceived effectives among sickle cell patients attending sickle cell center in Benin City Edo State. Methods: A cross sectional descriptive survey design was used to conveniently assess a total of 140 participants who attends the sickle cell center using self-structured questionnaire as instrument for data collection. The instrument was subjected to face and content validity as well as reliability using split half reliability test. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics such as T-test, and multivariate logistic regression tests at 5%level of significant. Statistical Package for Social Sciences version (SPSS) 21.0 was use in all analysis. Result: Findings from the study shows that use of pain reliefs, communication of pain to friends, prayers, hypnosis, guided imagery and Diversional therapy such as playing video games was the most commonly used coping strategies having a mean of >2.5. Pain coping strategies such as prayer, relaxation and use of pain relievers were the most effective coping strategies used (mean >2.5). Generally, about 66.4% of the entire population showed that coping strategies were effective to relief pain. Family and peer support were reported as the major factor influencing the use of coping strategies. Significant difference (p<0.05) was found in the coping strategies used by male and female respondents. Respondents who strongly agreed that economic factor played a major role in effective pain coping strategies were 0.328 times more (B-1.114; OR 0.328; CI 0.142-0.759, p = 0.009) likely to believe that coping strategies were effective. Also, respondents who chose routine checkups as a factor affecting pain coping strategies were 3.035 times more (B 1.110, OR;0.3035, CI;1.301-7083, p = 0.010) likely to choose those coping strategies were effective. Conclusion: Considering the fact that pain is a lifelong issue for people with sickle cell disease, different coping strategies and how to effectively implement them should form the nucleus of health education given by nurses and other health care professionals to patients with sickle cell diseases. Patients should be taught on how to carry out these procedures themselves in order to manage pain in its prodromal phase as well as reduce frequent hospital visits and cost.

Published: February 2022

The present study exhibits a yield and yield component traits correlations and path coefficient analysis in some KAFACI doubled haploid and other rice {Oryza sativa L} genotypes. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design {RCBD} with 3 replications at Lifuwu Agricultural Research Station trial fields during the 2018/2019 and 2019/2020 rainy seasons. Eight selected traits namely number of productive tillers per hill, spikelets per panicle, panicle length, days to 50% flowering, days to maturity, 1000 grain weight, and grain yield were considered in this study. ANOVA table illustrated significant differences (p<0.001) for all studied traits and this means that the germplasms comprised a pool of genotypes with huge variations. The new promising lines, which exceed the yield, record of 7000kg/ha of paddy rice for Malawi varieties were identified in the present evaluation of KAFACI lines. Generally, genotypic correlations were higher than phenotypic correlations though in some instances were similar implying that much expression of the lines were influenced by genetic factors. Grain yield showed positive significant correlation with number of productive tillers per hill and only positive in panicle length and spikelets per panicle. This means selection for these traits can improve grain yield. Path Coefficient showed that characters like days to reach maturity, panicle length and spikelets per panicle were directly influencing grain yield thus are important contributors in coming up with selection criteria for the set objectives in a rice breeding program.
The Infusion of Learning - Transfer Evaluation Model in Undergraduate Nursing Education During COVID-19 Pandemic: Leadership Simulated
Authors: Okunji Priscilla O , Ezebuihe Ihuoma
Published: February 2022

Introduction: The Learning-Transfer Evaluation Model (LTEM), is particularly designed to assist institutions and learning professionals to decide if their evaluation methods are effective in providing valid feedback as studies have reported that previous evaluation models have not done so effectively. LTEM is composed of eight levels starting from completely inadequate methods of learning evaluation to the effects of learning transfer. The model is designed to be critical for all learning interventions, including classroom learning, e-learning, mobile learning, on-the-job learning, self-study learning, etc. Hence, the rationale for using this learning model to evaluate an undergraduate Leadership and Management online class during the 2021 Spring semester. LTEM could be used anywhere to evaluate if learning has occurred. The terminology may eventually change evaluation practices; however, the new model is designed to help bring wisdom and knowledge to faculty teaching efforts. Hence, the rationale for using this learning model to evaluate an online class during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: Articles were extracted from PubMed and only five articles were chosen for the review prior to designing the online Leadership class. The inclusions were learning interventions, classroom learning, e-learning, mobile learning, distance learning, simulation, hybrid, discussion board. Exclusions were teaching and all non-learning and evaluation activities in higher education. Result: The learning outcomes of the leadership class was analyzed and tabulated according to the LTEM evaluation models (1-8). The results showed that using simulation technique was a very effective way evaluating learning when compared to other teaching methods such as role model, test, quizzes, etc. The rationale being that students were able to think critically and the outcomes of their learning dramatically changed on pre-post evaluation on Leadership and Management cues.
Mind’s Selective Attention to Previous Experience
Authors: Theofilidis Antonis , Kargopoulos Filipos
Published: February 2022

The basic arguments for a mental image model of thought are based on neuropsychological evidence. Farah [1] found that the same brain regions are activated during both mental representation and actual perception, while Bishiah [2] found that brain traumas that affected perception, also affected the ability to create mental images. Pylyshyn [3] on the other hand, argues that all mental images are guided by ‘’cognitive penetrability’’, thus on their very basis, are manipulated by certain propositional elements. Given this difficulty, Kargopoulos [4] hinted towards further research, featuring shapes and solid objects, for which subjects have no prior extensive knowledge. This would force subjects to use non-semantic strategies of representation, meaning mental imagery. Hinton’s [5] cube problem conforms to these requirements. Hinton’s problem aligns with the idea that spatial tasks (especially tasks with cubes that change layout) are guided by propositional cues (our knowledge about squares) and supports Pylyshyn’s position. Using one of the simplest objects, a cube, Hinton showed that as soon as this shape changes its mental arrangement in space, even suspicious -as to the nature of the experiment- participants will make mistakes that are not present when they manipulate a mental image of the cube sitting on its typical array. Aim: Our goal was to investigate the relationship between spatio-visual skill and the ability for mental partitioning in healthy subjects. Methodology: We used 2 groups (344 participants) a control and an experimental one. In the control group, we presented a Moebius’ strip, in the experimental group, we presented the same Moebius’ strip and asked them to mentally represent it. All participants asked to mentally partition the strip. Results: Of the 344 participants, only 31 managed to give the correct number of vertices in space. Though people had a hard time manipulating the cube’s mental image, their success rates were much higher for the Hinton 1 task in which propositional representation was more accessible. Only 9 of the 344 participants could find the correct answer for the Moebius strip task in which mental manipulation of the strip image was impossible. Conclusions: We come to the conclusion that the relationship between ‘’seeing’’ and ‘’knowing’’ is more complex, not just on the level of the mental image level but also on the level of perception. Our findings bring back to the scientific background the idea that the mind’s selective attention to previous experience and cognitive schemas will decidedly affect human thought.

The aim of this study was to identifiy the stomata morphological characters of Pteridophyta in the â€‹â€‹Parangkikis Pagerwojo Waterfall area, Tulungagung. The first step of stomata observation was preparation of the abaxial leaf slice. The preparation was carried out by the replica method. Stomata character studied include types and size of stomata, the number of stomata and epidermis cells, and value of the stomatal index. The result of this study showed that stomata types of Pteridophyta were polocytic and anomocytic. Of the 15 Pteridophyta species observed, the all of stomata type were polocytic, except Selaginella which had type stomata anomocytic. Stomata oval was found in Selaginella intermedia and Phymatosorus sp., slightly oval (kidney) was found in Asplenium apogamum, Dryopteris sp., Asplenium normale, Nephrolepis bisserata, Nephrolepis davallioides, Asplenium nidus, and Pteris longipinnula sp., spherical was found in Dicranopteris linearis, Cyclosorus arida, Goniophlebium percussom, and Goniophlebium manmiense, and nonconcave was found in Coniogramme fraxinea. Stomata size affected the number of stomata. If the size of the stomata was small, the number of stomata was increasing. The highest number of stomata was found in D. linearis, which was 362, while the least number of stomata was S. intermedia, which was 18. Data on the number of stomata and epidermal cells were used to determine the stomatal index. The highest stomata index was found in D. linearis, which was 22.05% and the lowest was C. fraxinea, which was 5.44 %.

Research on Hydroseeding in Indonesia is still limited. The application of this hydroseeding technique can be developed for landslide management. This study aims to analyze the percentage of growth (viability) and growth of Japanese grass (Zoysia japonica) planted on landslide soil media at various levels of slope. This research was carried out at the Central Laboratory and greenhouse of the Malang Agricultural Institute in March â€“ July 2020. The soil media used was obtained from landslides in Ngantang, Malang Regency. A total of 5 kg of media was put in a plastic box. Then the box is placed on a shelf with a slope of 30o, 50o, and 70o. Japanese Grass Seeds obtained from the market are mixed with compost, soil conditioner, guar gum, water to form a Hydroseeding formula. The formula is then sprayed onto the growing media. The results showed that the application of hydroseeding with Japanese grass seed (Z. japonica) on media placed with a slope of 70o could potentially be used as a formula for the revegetation process of landslide-affected land. The hydroseeding treatment at this slope resulted in the highest seed viability and growth rate. Thus, Japanese grass (Zoysia japonica) has the potential to be used as a pioneer plant in land reclamation.

This assessment is carried out to evaluate the learning process by emphasizing aspects of the integrated curriculum developed at the Bahrul Maghfiroh Islamic Boarding School. This process, which at every stage of its history has always undergone changes and dynamic cycles, must receive serious attention. The issue of curriculum since the implementation of the merger between the boarding school curriculum and the general school curriculum to this day is still a long debate, especially how the pesantren curriculum, which was originally oriented to ansih Islamic boarding school, must accommodate the general curriculum which is actually far from the experience expected by previous pesantren. This assessment is carried out with a grounded approach by conducting sufficient interviews, distributing questionnaires, and tracking school or boarding documents and followed by focus group discussions (FGD).

At the implementation level, the curriculum merger effort at the Bahrul Maghfiroh Islamic Boarding School in Malang City is still limited to improving the school or class schedule, which means that on the improvement side at the level of material or certain fields of study, it is still in the process of improving and discussing discussions by coordinating continuously and thoroughly. In addition, at this stage the supporting laboratories are almost 70 percent completed to adjust to global needs which will be used and utilized by students in the future. The fields of agriculture, animal husbandry, and student entrepreneurship, and small industrial industries, in the future will become laboratories, not only for the sake of an integrated curriculum but also in general the vision of this pesantren, including strengthening the capacity of relevant learning media, but also upgrading Islamic boarding school human resources, so that they are able to synergize with digital speed which is the key in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0, currently the Bahrul Maghfiroh Islamic Boarding School is preparing

Published: February 2022

Türkiye'de sanayileşmenin ilk başlangıcı olarak kabul edilebilecek 19. yüzyıldan beri gelişen işçi hareketlerinde günümüze kadar gelen süreç içinde zaman zaman önemli gelişmeler kaydedilmiştir. Uzun yıllar Türk sanayi tarihinde önemli bir yer tutan Kocaeli bölgesinde işçi nüfusu 1950'den sonra giderek artmış ve sendikal hakların elde edildiği 1961 Anayasası'nın ardından şehirde işçilerin örgütlenme hareketleri de hız kazanmıştır. Farklı sendikacılık anlayışını temsil eden TÜRK-İŞ ve DİSK, 1961-1970 arasındaki yaklaşık 10 yıllık periyodun başta gelen işçi örgütleri olarak faaliyet göstermişlerdir. Her iki sendika arasındaki nüfuz mücadelesinde daha çok sağdaki siyasî oluşumlar tarafından desteklenen TÜRKİŞ, 1970 yılında Demirel Hükümeti'nin Meclis'e getirdiği ve DİSK'in etki alanını sınırlayacak sendikalarla ilgili olan kanun tasarısına onay verirken, DİSK yasa tasarısına karşı bütün teşkilatlarını direnişe geçirme kararı almıştır. İstanbul'un yanı sıra Türkiye'nin sanayileşmesinde önemli bir paya sahip bulunan Kocaeli'nde de DİSK yanlısı işçi örgütleri 15 ve 16 Haziran günlerinde iş bırakarak, yeni yasa tasarısını protesto etmişlerdir. İki gün süren ve Kocaeli'nde üretimi büyük ölçüde durduran protesto gösterileri sonunda sıkıyönetim ilan edilmiştir.

Değerlendirenin karşısındakini anlamlandırma süreci, değerlendirilenin duyu organlarıyla algılanmasının yanı sıra içinde bulunulan toplumsal yapının kültürel değer ve normlarının rehberliğinde tercüme edilmesini de içermektedir. Bu süreçte, bireyin toplumsal yaşama katılmasından itibaren öğrenip, içselleştirdiği kalıpyargıları oldukça önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Birey, kişilerarasında kurulan iletişim sürecine zihninde kategorize ettiği kalıpyargıları doğrultusunda pozisyon alarak başlamakta ve iletişim sürecini aldığı bu pozisyona uygun olarak sürdürmektedir. Bu durum kuşaklararası iletişim perspektifinden ele alındığında ise, yaşlı bireylerin yer aldığı tüm kişilerarası iletişim süreçlerinde yaş kalıpyargılarının önemli bir belirleyiciliğinin bulunduğu görülmektedir. Söz konusu kalıpyargılar, yaşlı bireylere ilişkin değerlendirmeleri şekillendirerek, çoğu zaman onlar hakkında gerçek dışı çıkarımlar yapılmasına ve taraflar arasındaki iletişim sürecinin olumsuz etkilenmesine neden olmaktadır. Bu perspektiften yola çıkan çalışma içerisinde, kişilerarası iletişim sürecinde yaş kalıpyargılarının rolüne odaklanılmakta, kalıpyargı içeriklerinin değerlendiren ve değerlendirilen açısından nasıl olumsuz çıktılara dönüşebildikleri ele alınmakta ve literatürdeki kuşaklararası iletişim modellerine değinilerek, olası çözüm önerileri aktarılmaktadır.
Bölgesel Kalkınmada Girişimci Üniversite Modeli: Limerick Üniversitesi Örneği
Authors: ÇELİK Fatih
Published: February 2022

Üniversiteler, Orta Çağ'dan bu yana toplumsal değişimlerle birlikte üç temel aşamadan geçmiştir. Başlangıçta geleneksel öğretim yönü ağır basan üniversiteler, sanayi toplumu ile araştırma misyonunu da üstlenmiştir. Günümüzde ise üçüncü misyon olarak ekonomik ve sosyal kalkınmaya katkı sağlamayı benimseyerek girşimci üniversiteye dönüşmüştür. Girişimci üniversite kavramı, üniversitelerde üretilen bilginin lisans, patent, akademik girişim (spin-off firma) gibi araçlarla toplum yararına ticarileştirilmesini vurgular. Girişimci üniversite modeli, ilk olarak 19. yüzyılın sonlarında ABD'nin MIT ve Stanford üniversitelerinde ortaya çıkmıştır. Avrupa'da ise, 1990'larda benimsenmeye başlamıştır. Bu çalışmada, İrlanda'nın Shannon Bölgesi'nde 1972 yılında kurulan Limerick Üniversitesi'nin (UL) girişimci üniversiteye dönüşümü, öğretim, araştırma ve girişimcilik faaliyetleri ile ele alınmıştır. Nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden doküman analizi tekniği ile yapılan analizle şu hususlar tespit edilmiştir: Limerick Üniversitesi (a) Ülkede girişimcilik eğitimi ile öne çıkmıştır. (b) Ülkenin ilk teknoparkı gibi Ar-Ge altyapılarına sahiptir. (c) Yenilikçilik ve girişimcilik faaliyetleri ile yükseköğretim kurumları arasında öne çıkmıştır.

Authors: ARSLAN Umay
Published: February 2022

Kuşatılmış Yaşamlar ve Ağır Roman, tüm insani değerlerin yozlaştığı bir tüketim çağında yaşam koşulları ve tarzlarıyla birbirinden ayrılan iki farklı toplumsal sınıfın benzer yazgıları paylaşan iki üyesinin öyküsünü anlatır. Bir yanda para, güç, cinsellik ve bilgi-işlem tutkunu insanların oluşturduğu bir bilişim cemaati üyesi program çözümlemecisi; diğer yanda şiddet, korku, haz ve eğlencenin doruğunda yaşam savaşı veren insanlardan oluşan Kolera cemaati üyesi Salih vardır. Bakış açıları ve beklentilerinin farklılığı nedeniyle yaşama, çevreye ve insanlara uyum sağlayamayan roman kahramanları giderek yalnızlaşır ve yabancılaşma duygusuna kapılırlar. Gerçekte yaşadıkları sorunun farkında olup bulundukları konumu isteseler de kolayca terk edemeyeceklerini bilirler. Böylece, “Bizler kralız.” diyen bilgiişlemci ve “Âlem buysa kral benim.” diyen Salih, yaşam karşısında kendi kuramsal ve estetik duruşlarını sergileyerek direnmeye çalışırlar. Ancak, biri en iyi olduğunu düşünen, diğeri en iyi olmayı isteyen; yaşama tutunmaya çalışırken derin bir çöküntüye sürüklenen roman kahramanları sonunda düzene boyun eğerek savaşı kaybederler. Bu çalışmada, Kuşatılmış Yaşamlar ve Ağır Roman adlı yapıtlardaki ana kişilerin ruhsal ve düşünsel yapılarını, içinde yaşadıkları toplumla olan ilişkilerini, karşılaştıkları olay ve sorunlara verdikleri tepkileri inceleyerek benzer ve farklı yönlerini ortaya koymayı amaçladık.

Published: February 2022

1703-1711 tarihleri arasında gerçekleşen II. Ferenc Rákóczi liderliğindeki bağımsızlık savaşı Macarların Habsburglara karşı verdiği en uzun özgürlük mücadelesidir. Önceleri önemli kazanımların elde edildiği bu bağımsızlık mücadelesi zamanla güç kaybetmeye başlamış ve 1708'deki Trencsén yenilgisinden sonra Macar ordusu toparlanamamıştır. II. Ferenc Rákóczi'nin Macaristan toprakları dışında olduğu sırada 1711 tarihinde imzalanan Szatmár Antlaşması ile Macar bağımsızlık mücadelesi sona ermiştir. II. Ferenc Rákóczi bu tarihten sonra ülkesine dönememiş, bir müddet Lehistan, İngiltere ve Fransa'da kaldıktan sonra Sultan III. Ahmed'in daveti üzerine 1717 yılında Osmanlı topraklarına gelmiş, 1720 yılında Tekirdağ'a yerleştirilmiş ve 1735 tarihindeki ölümüne kadar burada yaşamıştır. Macar tarihinin bu en uzun özgürlük mücadelesi sırasında özgürlük savaşının yayım organı olarak da tanımlayabileceğimiz ilk Macar gazetesi Mercurius Hungaricus 1705 yılında Latince olarak yayım hayatına başlamış ve bu süreçte etkili olan Habsburg yanlısı yayım anlayışına karşı Macarların ve Macar özgürlük mücadelesinin sesi olmuştur. Özgürlük savaşı sırasında gerçekleşen olayların haberleştirildiği gazete aynı zamanda dönemin Macar dış politikasının yansıtıldığı en önemli kaynaklardan biri olarak da kabul edilebilir. 1705-1710 tarihleri arasında yayımlanan gazete 1705 tarihindeki ikinci sayısından itibaren ise adını Mercurius Veridicus ex Hungaria olarak değiştirmiştir. Çalışmamızda Macar ulusal tarihinin en uzun bağımsızlık mücadelesi olan II. Ferenc Rákóczi liderliğindeki Macar bağımsızlık savaşı ana hatlarıyla anlatılmış ve bu mücadelenin sesi olan ilk Macar gazetesi Mercurius Hungaricus'un tarihçesi, nüshaları, bu alanda yapılan çalışmalar, haber başlıkları ve yayımlanış amacı ile ilgili bilgiler verilerek bu alanda ülkemizde yapılacak çalışmalara katkı sağlaması açısından ilgili gazetenin incelemesi yapılmıştır.

Icing and formation of ice crystals is a major obstacle against applications ranging from energy systems to transportation and aviation. Icing not only introduces excess thermal resistance, but it also reduces the safety in operating systems. Many organisms living under harsh climate and subzero temperature conditions have developed extraordinary survival strategies to avoid or delay ice crystal formation. There are several types of antifreeze glycoproteins with ice-binding ability to hamper ice growth, ice nucleation, and recrystallization. Scientists adopted similar approaches to utilize a new generation of engineered antifreeze and ice-binding proteins as bio cryoprotective agents for preservation and industrial applications. There are numerous types of antifreeze proteins (AFPs) categorized according to their structures and functions. The main challenge in employing such biomolecules on industrial surfaces is the stabilization/coating with high efficiency. In this review, we discuss various classes of antifreeze proteins. Our particular focus is on the elaboration of potential industrial applications of anti-freeze polypeptides.

Background: Cisplatin is a widely used chemotherapeutic drug, whereas the clinical application is greatly limited by its nephrotoxic side effect. Currently, there has been no effective treatment to prevent cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (cisplatin-AKI). Human amniotic epithelial cells (hAECs) and their derived exosomes (EXOs) have been proven to effectively protect against ischemia reperfusion-induced AKI, yet their roles in cisplatin-AKI are still unknown.

Methods: C57BL/6J mice were given two doses of cisplatin at 20 or 15 mg/kg of body weight to induce AKI with or without mortality. hAECs or EXOs were injected via tail vein 1 day after cisplatin administration. Serum and kidney tissues were collected on the fourth day after 15 mg/kg cisplatin treatment to explore the nephro-protective effects of hAECs and EXOs on cisplatin-AKI. Lung cancer xenograft model was built by subcutaneous injection of A549 cells into BALB/c nude mice to evaluate the effect of hAECs or EXOs on cisplatin chemotherapy.

Results: Cisplatin nephrotoxicity was significantly attenuated by hAECs and EXOs as evidenced by reduced mortality rate and decreased serum creatinine (sCr) and reduced tubular injury score. hAECs or EXOs exerted the nephro-protective effects via suppression of TNF-α/MAPK and caspase signaling pathways. In the A549 lung cancer xenograft mouse model, administration of hAECs or EXOs did not promote tumor growth or compromise the therapeutic effects of cisplatin on tumors.

Conclusion: This study is the first to demonstrate that hAECs and their derived exosomes have nephro-protective effects in cisplatin-AKI in vivo. Importantly, neither hAECs nor EXOs compromise the antitumor activity of cisplatin. These results potentially support the use of hAECs and their derived EXOs as nephro-protectors against cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity clinically.

Growing evidence indicates a link between retinoic acid (RA) metabolism and sarcoma progression or immunity in laboratory studies. However, a comprehensive analysis of RA abnormality in the sarcoma population is still lacking. Herein, we systematically analyzed the molecular features of 19 retinoic acid metabolism-related enzymes and sarcoma patients’ clinical information based on TCGA/TARGET/GSE datasets. We identified two RA expression subtypes, which were related to distinct clinical survival outcomes and exhibited different biological features. Gene set enrichment analysis indicated a set of immune pathways were enriched in G1 while oncogenic pathways were enriched in G2. Immune cell infiltration analysis using the TIMER algorithm revealed more CD4+ and CD8+ T cell infiltration in G1 subgroups than in G2. Moreover, we generated a seven genes signature to predict the RA metabolism index based on the LASSO-penalized Cox regression model. Survival analysis demonstrated the significant prognostic differences between high- and low-risk groups among different bone and soft tissue datasets. A higher risk index was associated with less T cell CD8+ infiltration. The predictive ability of the RA risk score was validated in 71 bone or soft tissue sarcoma clinical samples. These results indicated that RA-based classification could distinguish sarcoma patients with different clinical outcomes and immune statuses, which may help to explore better treatment decision-making for sarcoma patients.

Published: February 2022

Nickel sulfide has been widely studied as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries due to its environmental friendliness, low cost, high conductivity, and high theoretical capacity. A simple hydrothermal method was used to prepare NiS nanospheres materials with the size in the range of 100–500 nm. The NiS nanospheres electrodes exhibited a high reversible capacity of 1402.3 mAh g−1 at 200 mA g−1 after 280 cycles and a strong rate capability of 814.8 mAh g−1 at 0.8 A g−1 and 1130.5 mAh g−1 when back to 0.1 A g−1. Excellent electrochemical properties and the simple preparation method of the NiS nanospheres make it possible to prepare NiS on a large scale as the anode of lithium-ion batteries.
Driving Factors of Carbon Emission Intensity for China's Planting: A Combination of LMDI and PDA
Authors: Yang Fuxia , Fan Dongshou , Xu Fei
Published: February 2022

It is important to explore the driving factors of the carbon emission intensity (CI) for China's planting under the dual pressures of adequate food supply and carbon neutrality. Previous studies separately investigate the impact of technical or structural factors on the total carbon emissions of China's agricultural sector, but few studies assess the comprehensive effects of these two. To this end, this paper incorporates the production-theoretical decomposition analysis (PDA) into the logarithmic mean Divisia index (LMDI) and decomposes the changes of CI into seven components, namely, two technical effects, four structural ones, and one regional layout effect. Based on the panel data of the agricultural sector for 31 provinces in China from 2001 to 2018, the contribution rates of the seven components to the changes of China's planting CI are computed. The results indicate that China's planting CI presents a downward trend with an average annual decreasing rate of 11.4% over the whole study period. The improvement in technical efficiency (TEFF) plays a dominant role in the decline of CI for planting with a contribution rate of 83.19%, followed by the output structure (OS) change (27.28%). In contrast, technical change (TECH) (8.00%) promotes the increase of CI. Further, the effects present significant regional heterogeneities. Specifically, TEFF contributes the highest share to the decline of CI for producing-sales balance areas (BA), and OS plays the greatest role in the decrease of CI for main grain-sales areas (MCA) during the entire study period. Accordingly, some policy recommendations are put forward on how to reduce the CI of China's planting.
