Authors: Langitasari Indah , Sari Siti Aisyah Ratna , Elis Sya'adah Siti
Published: February 2024

Stoichiometry is one of the essential chemistry topics that is an abstract concept, involves complex calculations, and is related to other chemical concepts. It can cause not a few students to have difficulty learning it. Scaffolding is needed in the learning process of stoichiometry concepts to help students understand concepts more easily and improve learning outcomes. This research aims to determine differences in students' cognitive learning outcomes on the stoichiometry topic after implementing the IMWR scaffolding model. This research used experimental research with the one-group pretest-postest design. Respondents were 32 high school students who were determined by purposive sampling. The instrument test consisted of 32 items of essays that were valid and reliable. Data is collected and carried out through pretest and posttest. The differences in students' cognitive learning outcomes were analyzed descriptively using the N-gain test and statistical analysis using the paired sample t-test. The paired sample t-test showed a significance value of 0.000 (sig. 0.05), meaning there were differences in student learning outcomes after implementing the IMWR Scaffolding learning model. However, the resulting difference is not significant and is in a low category (N-gain 0.27). Implementing IMWR scaffolding needs to be designed as best as possible by paying attention to students' character to help students understand the concept using procedural knowledge, which impacts better learning outcomes.

Nonlinear Optimal Control for a PMLSG-VSC Wave Energy Conversion Unit
Authors: Rigatos Gerasimos , Siano Pierluigi , Numay Mohammed , Abbaszadeh Masoud , Cuccurullo Gennaro
Published: February 2024

This article aims to treat the nonlinear control problem for the complex dynamics of a wave energy unit (WEC) that consists of a Permanent Magnet Linear Synchronous Generator (PMLSG) and a Voltage Source Converter (VSC). The article has developed a globally stable nonlinear optimal control method for this wave power generation unit. The new method avoids complicated state-space model transformations and minimizes the energy dispersion by the control loop. A novel nonlinear optimal control method is proposed for the dynamic model of a wave energy conversion system, which includes a Permanent Magnet Linear Synchronous Generator (PMLSG) serially connected with an AC/DC three-phase voltage source converter (VSC). The dynamic model of this renewable energy system is formulated and differential flatness properties are proven about it. To apply the proposed nonlinear optimal control, the state-space model of the PMLSG-VSC wave energy conversion unit undergoes an approximate linearization process at each sampling instance. The linearization procedure relies on a first-order Taylor-series expansion and involves the computation of the system’s Jacobian matrices. It takes place at each sampling interval around a temporary operating point, which is defined by the present value of the wave energy conversion unit’s state vector and by the last sampled value of the control inputs vector. An H-infinity feedback controller is designed for the linearized model of the wave energy conversion unit. To compute the feedback gains of this controller, an algebraic Riccati equation is repetitively solved at each time step of the control algorithm. The global stability properties of the control scheme are proven through Lyapunov analysis.

Authors: Lokala Usha , Phukan Orchid Chetia , Dastidar Triyasha Ghosh , Lamy Francois , Daniulaityte Raminta , Sheth Amit
Published: February 2024

Background

Opioid and substance misuse has become a widespread problem in the United States, leading to the “opioid crisis.” The relationship between substance misuse and mental health has been extensively studied, with one possible relationship being that substance misuse causes poor mental health. However, the lack of evidence on the relationship has resulted in opioids being largely inaccessible through legal means.

Objectives

This study aims to analyze social media posts related to substance use and opioids being sold through cryptomarket listings. The study aims to use state-of-the-art deep learning models to generate sentiment and emotion from social media posts to understand users’ perceptions of social media. The study also aims to investigate questions such as which synthetic opioids people are optimistic, neutral, or negative about; what kind of drugs induced fear and sorrow; what kind of drugs people love or are thankful about; which drugs people think negatively about; and which opioids cause little to no sentimental reaction.

Methods

The study used the drug abuse ontology and state-of-the-art deep learning models, including knowledge-aware Bidirectional Encoder Representations From Transformers–based models, to generate sentiment and emotion from social media posts related to substance use and opioids being sold through cryptomarket listings. The study crawled cryptomarket data and extracted posts for fentanyl, fentanyl analogs, and other novel synthetic opioids. The study performed topic analysis associated with the generated sentiments and emotions to understand which topics correlate with people’s responses to various drugs. Additionally, the study analyzed time-aware neural models built on these features while considering historical sentiment and emotional activity of posts related to a drug.

Results

The study found that the most effective model performed well (statistically significant, with a macro–F1-score of 82.12 and recall of 83.58) in identifying substance use disorder. The study also found that there were varying levels of sentiment and emotion associated with different synthetic opioids, with some drugs eliciting more positive or negative responses than others. The study identified topics that correlated with people’s responses to various drugs, such as pain relief, addiction, and withdrawal symptoms.

Conclusions

The study provides insight into users’ perceptions of synthetic opioids based on sentiment and emotion expressed in social media posts. The study’s findings can be used to inform interventions and policies aimed at reducing substance misuse and addressing the opioid crisis. The study demonstrates the potential of deep learning models for analyzing social media data to gain insights into public health issues.
Young Children and the Creation of a Digital Identity on Social Networking Sites: Scoping Review
Authors: Berg Valeska , Arabiat Diana , Morelius Evalotte , Kervin Lisa , Zgambo Maggie , Robinson Suzanne , Jenkins Mark , Whitehead Lisa
Published: February 2024

Background

There is limited understanding of the concept of the digital identity of young children created through engagement on social networking sites.

Objective

The objective of this scoping review was to identify key characteristics of the concept of digital identity for children from conception to the age of 8 years on social networking sites.

Methods

This scoping review was conducted using the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews) guidelines. The key databases searched were EBSCO, Web of Science, ProQuest ERIC, and Scopus. Gray literature sources (National Grey Literature Collection, ProQuest Dissertations and Theses, and Google Scholar) were also searched to identify unpublished studies. Articles were selected if they were published in English and reported data on the digital identity of children in relation to social networking sites.

Results

The key terms used in the literature were sharenting, followed by digital footprints and children’s identities. Our study revealed 2 approaches to the creation of digital identity: social digital identity and performative digital identity. The articles in this review most commonly used the term sharenting to describe the behavior parents engage in to create digital identities for children on social networking sites. Motivations to post information about children differed among parents; however, the most common reasons were to share with friends and family and create digital archives of childhood photos, termed social digital identity. The second motivation was categorized as performative digital identity. The risk of digital kidnapping and identity theft associated with the creation of digital identities also influenced parents’ behaviors.

Conclusions

The creation of a digital identity for children is an emerging concept. Our review develops a deeper understanding of sharenting behaviors that can be used to better support parents and their children in creating a digital identity with children and awareness of the potential future impact. We recommend that future studies explore the perspectives of children as key stakeholders in the creation of their digital identity.

Authors: Zhang Liqun , Liu Yanru , Liu Xiang , Li Yuanhui , Zhang Tianjiao , Li Dai , Hao Wei
Published: February 2024

BACKGROUND

Cognitive bias modification (CBM) programs have shown promise in treating psychiatric conditions, but they can be perceived as boring and repetitive. Incorporating gamified designs and adaptive algorithms in CBM training may address this issue and enhance engagement and effectiveness.

OBJECTIVE

To assess the preliminary efficacy of an adaptive approach bias modification (A-ApBM) paradigm with gamified designs and dynamic difficulty adjustments in reducing cue-induced craving in individuals with methamphetamine use history.

METHODS

DESIGN: Randomized controlled trial with three study groups: Adaptive ApBM (A-ApBM), Static ApBM (S-ApBM) as an active control, and blank control. SETTING: Twelve community-based rehabilitation centers in Sichuan, China. PARTICIPANTS: Individuals aged 18-60 with methamphetamine dependence. INTERVENTION: A-ApBM group engaged in ApBM training using a smartphone application for four weeks. A-ApBM used an adaptive algorithm to dynamically adjust the difficulty level based on individual performance. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Cue-induced craving scores assessed using a visual analog scale at baseline, post-intervention, and at week-16 follow-up.

RESULTS

The A-ApBM group showed a significant reduction in cue-induced craving scores at post-intervention compared to baseline. The reduction remained significant at the week-16 follow-up. No significant changes were observed in the S-ApBM and control groups.

CONCLUSIONS

The adaptive ApBM paradigm with gamified designs and dynamic difficulty adjustments may be an effective intervention for reducing cue-induced craving in individuals with methamphetamine use history. This approach improves engagement and personalization, potentially enhancing the effectiveness of CBM programs. Further research is needed to validate these findings and explore the application of adaptive ApBM in other psychiatric conditions.

Democracies in Our Changing Times
Authors: Avny Amos
Published: February 2024

The aim of the study is to examine how the transition from the orderly 20th century to the chaotic Post-modern 21st century, affects, reshapes the nature, character and the functionality of the Post-modern Democracy. This examination is conducted thru two phases that explore four areas of behavior; Personal—Needs and Feelings, Economic Drives, Social Concerns and Political Motivations. A short sum-up is presented on two comparison tables. Afterwards, a third section discusses some challenges for the future. Finally, some concluding practical points are offered for implementation. The first phase examines how people’s conduct and expectations, are changing during the transition period. It points-out that people change their aspirations and expectations, as they feel free and ready for meeting new challenges. However, at the same time, grows the number of confused individuals, who limp behind progress and need a special treatment. The economy at that time, has promoted Globalization and High-Tec industries. At the same time, society became heterogeneous and instable, while citizens, in general, seek stability and prosperity. In politics, new voters look for a greater influence and a deeper involvement in the work of government. In sum, many people want to feel, the genuine spirit of the promising post-modern era. The second phase examines the effects and impacts of the transition on the nature and functionality of the Democratic state. It explores the similar four areas and conclude that the study’s observations, well indicate how people’s demands and behavior had changed and expanded due to the requirement to fit better and comply faster, with the Post-modern Chaotic Views. Further, some improving steps for empowering Democratic states, are proposed. At the end, some short practical points are offered for assisting professional, who eventually carry-out most of the implementation work. In sum, the 21st century foresees promising and inspiring prospects for Democratic states. The implementation of these forecasts depends mainly on a solid and consistent determination of the citizens and their leaders.Most Democracies need to run a continual decisive civic order for assuring and securing their people “Blessing of Liberty”. Only history will tell whether and when this inspiring dream would come through.

Prevención de la violencia contra la mujer: una crítica multinivel desde la política criminal
Authors: Buenrostro Briseño Raúl Javier
Published: February 2024

En este ensayo se analiza y evalúa la prevención de la violencia contra las mujeres en México desde tres niveles y se muestra el atraso inmenso en cada ámbito para alcanzar un Estado social democrático de derecho óptimo. La prevención de primer nivel, seguridad ciudadana, busca abordar las causas profundas de la violencia, mediante la promoción de transformaciones estructurales en la sociedad, sustentada en políticas sociales integrales que garantizan educación, igualdad de género, salud y otros derechos fundamentales. El segundo nivel, disuasión, implica medidas policiales para evitar actos violentos y proteger a las víctimas, pero se consideran insuficientes para abordar la violencia en el ámbito privado. El tercer nivel, castigo y control, centrado en el sistema penitenciario, por el cual se busca la reinserción social y evitar la reincidencia de los agresores, sin embargo, enfrenta enormes desafíos como la sobrepoblación, la falta de programas obligatorios, un modelo penitenciario estructural adecuado y la falta de asistencia social después de la liberación.
simbolismo del viento y la luna en el Romancero gitano
Authors: Vadillo Comesaña Juan Manuel
Published: February 2024

En el presente artículo proponemos una lectura del Romancero gitano a la luz del simbolismo tradicional hispánico y del concepto de “religiosidad naturalística”. Nos centramos específicamente en el análisis de dos símbolos (el viento y la luna), que son fundamentales tanto en el mundo de Lorca como en la lírica tradicional hispánica y en la “religiosidad naturalística”. La intención es observar cómo el poeta es capaz de transformar los símbolos tradicionales para crear imágenes de vanguardia, que —según intentamos demostrar— pueden perder su carácter oral y popular, pero nunca su esencia tradicional. Por otra parte, intentamos señalar algunas coincidencias entre el simbolismo de la lírica tradicional hispánica y el de la “religiosidad naturalística”, que, a su vez, son materia prima en el proceso de creación del Romancero gitano. A fin de cuentas, lo que queremos es enriquecer la lectura de un poemario cuya expresividad evocativa y simbólica es un surtidor de interminables interpretaciones.

La cultura como derecho humano y sus implicaciones
Authors: García Rivera Enoc Alejandro , Espinoza Tenorio Alejandro
Published: February 2024

La cultura como parte integrante de la humanidad produce elementos y dinámicas que actúan en correspondencia con acciones que inducen y moldean destrezas individuales y colectivas que permiten producir, acumular y transmitir experiencias y conocimientos generacionales vinculados a los distintos entornos y estructuras sociales en los que sus miembros se desenvuelven. Aprendizajes y habilidades que propician a su vez las capacidades necesarias para descifrar y adaptarse a cualquier hábitat de la faz de la tierra; para organizarse comunitariamente sin importar la escala o tamaño del grupo humano, y, sobre todo, para comprender y adoptar el rol que tiene cada uno en el mundo con respecto a sí mismos. Cualidades que le proporcionan un valor de inmensurable para la humanidad y por las que se estimó necesario revestirla bajo el carácter de derecho fundamental para preservarla y protegerla. A partir de lo anterior, el presente trabajo académico pretende aproximarse al análisis de las implicaciones constitucionales que se establecen con motivo del ascenso de la cultura como derecho humano a fin de abonar a su noción y discusión jurídica.

Streptococcus pneumoniae causes meningitis, pneumonia and bacteremia, mainly in children under 5 years of age and in the elderly. Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) have been administered globally since the year 2000, contributing to substantially reduce the incidence of pneumococcal diseases (PDs). In 2012, Colombia implemented universal vaccination with PCV10 in children under 2 years of age, achieving a decrease and stabilization of the incidence of PDs. However, since 2014, replacement of vaccine serotypes by non-vaccine serotypes, such as 3 and 19A, predominantly, has been observed. Likewise, in 2019, there was an increase in the incidence of meningitis, coinciding with the increase of multi-resistant 19A clones. In July 2022, the vaccine formulation was changed to PCV13, which also has the potential to control serotypes 3, 6A, and 19A. This paper reviews the epidemiology of pneumococcus in Colombia, before and during the universal PCV10 vaccination.

Shifting and Shaping: Physicality in Digital Innovation
Authors:   , Göbeler Lucas Sören
Published: February 2024

As digital innovation has become pervasive in almost all aspects of our life, we often come to understand it as a realm of frictionless and unbounded opportunity. However, digital innovation does not occur in isolation but in the context of a world that is not just digital – in fact our world is inherently physical. Both, practitioners and researchers of digital innovation must confront this physicality to face the emerging challenges of digital innovation. The current literature on digital innovation has a limited understanding of physicality in digital innovation as it predominantly focuses on the uniquely digital characteristics of digital innovation. As a result, physicality is often treated as a unidirectional constraint, rather than an essential component to understanding digital innovation. This dissertation takes the opportunity to contribute to this field of knowledge and expand our understanding of digital innovation by providing a systematic conceptualization of physicality, as well as a language of physicality that is needed to reveal the nuances of how digital innovation interacts with the physical world. To build this conceptualization the dissertation draws on the notion of boundaries. By observing both how boundaries of physicality occur and are affected by digital innovation, as well as, examining how boundaries are perceived and can be acted upon, the project contributes to a holistic socio-technical understanding of digital innovation. Utilizing the empirical context of sports and sports technologies this dissertation builds on the theoretical findings from four individual research papers. The findings of this dissertation contribute to the knowledge on digital innovation by 1) establishing a systematic language of physicality as an important component in digital innovation, and 2) by proposing boundaries as a theoretical lens to analyse the physicality in digital innovation to reveal how physical boundaries are affected by digital innovation in surprising and unexpected ways. The dissertation further discusses how 3) structures of use can guide the shaping of boundaries as strategic tools in shaping collective action towards desired change, and 4) the dissertation discusses two notions of physicality that are distinct in referring to either the operational necessity or contextual intention. Overall, this dissertation on the one hand highlights why the study of physicality in digital innovation is necessary as it reveals new and unexpected insights into digital innovation and on the other hand provides a conceptualization and language of physicality it builds a foundation for studying physicality further.
Investigation on impact properties of basalt and glass fiber reinforced polyester composites filled with nano silica

Published: February 2024

The relevance of granite waste is growing alongside the global demand for granite. This waste comprises various forms, including large granite pieces, tiny fragments, dust, and other debris. This research aimed to create a novel composite by incorporating nano silica from granite powder as a filler, combining it with basalt and glass fibres as the matrix, and using polyester as the resin. The fabrication involved Fiber Reinforced Composite (FRP) production through hand lay-up and vacuum silicon moulding to eliminate trapped air during lamination. After fabrication, tests were conducted for hardness, density, and Low-Velocity Impact under dropping weight. The results indicated that introducing nano silica as a filler in polyester resin positively impacted Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polyester Composite (BFRPC) and Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyester Composite (GFRPC). Analysis showed that as the nano-silica content increased, so did energy absorbed, impact strength and ductility index, up to a 1wt% nano-silica concentration. Beyond this point, agglomeration occurred, causing a decrease in these values. The 1 Nano silica Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polyester Composite (1NSBFRPC) material exhibited the highest energy absorption at 103.21J, indicating strong impact strength at 21.27kJ/m2. Conversely, the 1NSGFRPC material demonstrated the highest ductility index at 4.13. In comparison, Carbon Tech Global's (CTG) energy absorption, initially 25.56J, experienced a significant increase of 303.79%, reaching 103.21J. The impact strength also showed a notable shift, escalating by 396.96% from 4.28 KJ/m2 to an impressive 21.27kJ/m2. This shift in impact strength represented a remarkable 128.2% surge, highlighting the significant influence of integrating nano-silica. This new composite suits truck body carriers and offers environmental benefits. Furthermore, utilising nano silica in this context not only aids in waste reduction within the granite sector but also contributes to sustainable resources.

The hydrosilylation reaction is a versatile process that is used to synthesize a variety of organosilicon compounds. However, the traditional metal oxide catalysts used for this reaction suffer from low activity and selectivity. In this study, we synthesized and characterized a gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)-reduced graphene oxide (rGO) catalyst for the hydrosilylation reaction. The AuNPs-rGO catalyst was synthesized by a one-pot method using trisodium citrate (Na3C6H5O7) as a reducing and capping agent. The catalyst was characterized by XRD, FESEM, and FTIR. The hydrosilylation reaction was carried out under solventless conditions using dimethylphenylsilane as the substrate. The AuNPs-rGO catalyst was found to be highly active and selective for the hydrosilylation reaction, yielding a 100% conversion of the substrate to disiloxane in 3 hours. The results of this study demonstrate the potential of AuNPs-rGO catalysts for the hydrosilylation reaction and suggest that they could be used to develop more efficient and sustainable processes for the synthesis of organosilicon compounds.
