Published: June 2024

Milk and its products are considered healthy due to their content of key nutritional elements. Despite their essential role in the human diet, they may be susceptible to contamination with many chemical pollutants from the surrounding environment, most notably heavy metals such as lead, which is considered toxic to consumers. This study evaluated lead concentrations in milk and dairy product samples collected from various Egyptian environments. The results showed significant differences (p < 0.05) in Pb concentrations in the samples collected from different environments in Egypt (industrial, traffic and rural). The average lead content in raw cow’s milk, sterilised milk, Domiati cheese, Ras cheese, processed cheese and yoghurt samples from industrial areas were 2.23, 0.33, 3.19, 5.10, 0.11 and 0.09 mg/kg, respectively. In traffic areas, lead concentrations were 1.83, 0.30, 2.72, 4.72, 0.13 and 0.09, and in rural areas, they were 0.61, 0.27, 1.52, 3.13, 0.13 and 0.09. The data showed that Pb levels in dairy product samples collected from industrial areas are very high compared with those collected from traffic areas. By contrast, the lowest Pb concentrations were recorded in samples from rural areas. It is recommended that lead levels in different foods, especially milk and its products, be evaluated at regular intervals.

Authors: Zulramadhanie  , Windarta Jaka , Cahyadi
Published: June 2024

The Indonesian government encourages an increase in the energy mix, especially renewable energy such as on-grid rooftop PV, which has an intermittent nature and high investment costs, so the development of rooftop PV must be carefully calculated by considering system reliability. Thus, PV systems can be optimised in terms of tilt angle, number of PV modules, module type, module support structure, and inverter. Many simulation tools are currently used to design PV systems using climate data. These simulation tools estimate energy production and provide corresponding economic data. However, the reliability of these data varies because the system productivity of the photovoltaic system productivity depends on the climatic conditions of the photovoltaic system depends on the climatic conditions. Therefore, in this study, two simulation tools, namely helioscope and RETScreen, will be evaluated in comparison with the actual conditions in the field of 93.6 kWP on-grid PV system. Based on the comparison results, Helioscope and RETScreen are reliable simulation tools because the results obtained are closest to the actual energy value.

Published: June 2024

Trains are a very important mode of transportation for freight and passengers in Indonesia. This encourages PT KAI, which is a train operator in Indonesia, to improve its performance. Currently PT KAI uses several types of locomotives. CC201 locomotives made in 1977-1978 and CC203 made in 1995 are locomotives that are still widely operated. Fuel consumption is one of the components of train operating costs, the percentage of which reaches more than 30%. Railroad fuel consumption is strongly influenced by various factors, one of which is the aerodynamic performance of the locomotive. This study presents an evaluation of the aerodynamic performance of CC201 and CC203 locomotives. The research stages include direct measurement of locomotive geometry and dimensions, CAD drawing creation using SoildWorks and aerodynamic evaluation using ANSYS software. The simulation results show that the flat front design of the CC201 locomotive has greater aerodynamic resistance. This can be seen from the pressure contours and turbulence around the locomotive body. This causes the drag force of the CC201 locomotive to be 44% greater than that of the CC203 locomotive.

Published: June 2024

The study explored the role of two dissimilar familial and religious practices in distinctly shaping independent and interdependent self-affirmations in two value systems (individualism and collectivism) that emerged to protect self-integrity and self-worth challenged by the threats of COVID-19. A qualitative research design was employed. A heterogeneous sample of 19 participants (10 joint and 9 nuclear families) was recruited who reported in a semi-structured interview about the consequences of COVID-19 and the role of family and religious values in coping with the pandemic threats. The thematic method was used to analyse the data. Codes were generated using a priori criteria while reviewing and re-reviewing, multiple discussions and iterations helped in theme identification and ascertaining validity. Five themes were generated: perceived strong threat of COVID-19, dissimilar genesis of independent and interdependent self-affirmations, positive roles of joint familial values, significance of religious values, and traditional and modern religious routes of self-affirmation. Threats were expressed in experiences of anxiety, uncertainty and mood fluctuations. Interdependence, affiliation and support were joint familial values whereas independence and self-esteem reflected nuclear family-values. Focus on explicit attributes denoted modern while divine interpretation and will of God reflected traditional religious values. Novelty, uncertainty and incurability of COVID-19 caused threats to self-integrity that compelled hem to affirm their most preferred values originating from two family forms. The pandemic posed threats to their self-worth, which in turn, activated affirmations in two distinct value systems leading to the development of independent and interdependent self-affirmations. Study findings will help surface novel features of the two self-affirmations. It provides new insights for making successful behavioural changes at individual, group and community levels for the success of social, health and educational policies.
Exploring factors that affect Kindergarten teachers’ use of picturebooks with gender non-conforming fictional characters
Authors: Kalaitzi Christina
Published: June 2024

Kindergarten environments are critical settings for early socialization and development of gender perceptions. Teachers play a significant role in shaping children’s understanding of gender, as do the materials and media they introduce to the classroom. The aim of this study is to explore the factors that affect kindergarten teachers’ use of picturebooks with gender non-conforming fictional characters in their teaching process. For the purposes of this research a quantitative approach was utilized. A sample of eighty-five kindergarten teachers answered a semi-structured questionnaire. A descriptive statistical analysis was performed, presenting the factors which affect kindergarten teachers’ use of gendered oriented picturebooks. Results show that factors which mostly affect kindergarten teachers are a) related to the educational framework, b) interwoven with teachers’ own personal beliefs, and c) referring to parents’ influence. The comparison of mean scores of factors in different academic qualification groups shows that highly qualified teachers with the least working experience are not affected negatively in their use of picturebooks with gender non-conforming characters in their teaching process. Those teachers are open to gender diversity, are not discouraged by the parents’ influence and take advantage of both the variety of LGBTQ picturebooks offered and the methodological framework of the Early Years Curriculum to deconstruct gender binaries. Mapping the factors could reveal the need for enhancing teachers’ continuing education on diversity matters and teachers’ resilience towards parents’ influence. Furthermore, findings reveal the need for designing a more detailed and practical methodological framework regarding the approach of gender issues in early years.
Defeatist Beliefs and Schizotypy in Adolescents and Emerging Adults
Authors: Massaro Devin , Capodilupo Gianna , Ehrlich Sarah , Nitzburg George , Dinzeo Thomas James
Published: June 2024

Defeatist beliefs involved overgeneralized negative beliefs regarding the ability to successfully perform tasks and accomplish goals. These cognitive errors have been shown to affect one’s ability to accurately assess and react in social situations and serve as hallmarks of many mood disorders. These negative beliefs also exist at high rates in adults with schizophrenia spectrum diagnoses. There is evidence for these beliefs existing during prodromal periods in young adults at-risk for psychosis, especially if they exhibit motivational or interpersonal difficulties (negative symptoms). However, there is little known about when these beliefs first emerge and whether they predate clinical disorder during earlier life stages where only subclinical presentations of risk (schizotypy) may be present. To address this research gap and help to inform cognitive-behavioral interventions targeting defeatist belief structures, we investigated the relations between defeatist beliefs and schizotypy in a sample of adolescents and emerging adults. Participants were 86 high school students (ages 14-17) and 270 college students (ages 18-22). Participants completed a 30-minute, self-report survey on defeatist beliefs and schizotypy. Our analyses found little difference in mean or standard deviation in defeatist beliefs or schizotypy between our two samples, with a robust positive association (r=0.46) when the samples where aggregated. These findings suggests that defeatist beliefs correspond with subclinical risk more-or-less on a continuum during this wider period of life potentially helping to understand variability in symptom severity. Future research is needed to clarify the nature of this relationship and to inform future interventions. Our finding suggests that cognitive behavioral approaches, which are well suited to target and modify defeatist beliefs, could serve a preventative role in the risk for future psychosis in at-risk adolescents and emerging adults.

Published: June 2024

The debate on the impact of violent video games and its influence on players continues despite mixed findings. Using the lens of third person perception research, we explored moral judgments of laypersons, those often at the crux of these public debates. Study 1 investigated whether the player or character is perceived by an outside observer as responsible for moral decisions made within the narrative of a violent video game. Study 2 investigated how those perceptions may impact the observers’ perceptions of the player’s future negative behaviors and personality traits. Study 1 and 2 used a 2 (condition: rescuing vs. harvesting) x 2 (role: player vs. character) mixed ANOVA with role as a repeated measure. We created a brief recording of gameplay leading to a moral decision in Bioshock, an interactive, first-person shooter game, shown to participants. Participants were asked to rate perceived morality of player and character actions. Study 1 showed that participants (N = 51) held the observed player more morally responsible for in-game behaviors than the character within the game. Replicating and advancing Study 1, Study 2 (N = 227) showed support for you are what you eat heuristic, in that observers were more likely to view the negative behaviors of the in-game characters as indicators of negative personality traits of the player. These insights are crucial in the broader societal discourse on the potential link between violent video games and real-world aggression

Early childhood is a crucial developmental phase of a child's well-being, which lays the foundation for their future growth. Lack of good oral practices may cause dental issues during this fundamental phase of development and have a long-lasting impact on a child's overall well-being. This cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary care hospital in Karachi, Pakistan, to explore oral health knowledge and practices among the caregivers of young children. A sample of 94 participants, including parents, caregivers, early childhood educators, and healthcare professionals (HCPS), was included through a convenient sampling technique. An online survey questionnaire was administered, which covered various aspects of oral hygiene practices to prevent common oral diseases among children. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 22.0. Statistical significance was accepted as p ≤0.05. Results of the study revealed no significant differences in oral health knowledge and practices based on age and gender. However, comparisons based on profession and roles showed a significant difference. Most participants agreed on the importance of regular oral hygiene practices. However, their opinions differed on certain oral hygiene practices, including the frequency of brushing and the timing of the first dental visit. This study underscores the importance of targeted education and interventions to improve oral health outcomes during the critical developmental phase of childhood.

Authors:   Morphology, Lee Sanghee , Mok Jungsoo
Published: June 2024

This study focuses on double subject constructions with the predicate ‘cohta((be) good/like)’, sourced from messenger corpus, finally categorizing them into six types in terms of their syntactic and semantic properties. A significant finding is that 97% of the analyzed sentences fall into type 1 and type 2, with a maximum of three noun phrases being realized. Type 1 and type 2 are notably distinct in several aspects including the semantic traits of noun phrases, the placement of adverbs of degree, the variability in the use of particles, and verb phrase expansion. Although the research is confined to specific conditions, limiting its general applicability to Korean double subject constructions, it can contribute to general Korean syntax by exploring a wide range of cases, including those typically unrealized, and highlighting the frequent syntactic and semantic variations beyond just the particles 'i/ka' and 'un/nun'.

Mức sinh thấp là một trong những nguyên nhân cốt lõi trong xu hướng già hóa gia tăng trên toàn cầu và tại Việt Nam. Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh (TP.HCM) có mức sinh thấp nhất cả nước trong nhiều thập kỷ qua, và kết hôn lần đầu ở độ tuổi thích hợp là yếu tố rất quan trọng trong việc quy trì ổn định mức sinh. Nghiên cứu cắt ngang khảo sát 1.730 sinh viên năm cuối tại 3 trường đại học lớn tại thành phố Hồ Chí Minh từ tháng 1 đến tháng 5 năm 2023. Hồi quy tuyến tính được sử dụng để xác định các yếu tố liên quan đến tuổi dự định kết hôn lần đầu. Nghiên cứu cho thấy rằng tỷ lệ sinh viên có dự định kết hôn là 64,2%, đáng chú ý có đến gần 1/3 sinh viên dự định không kết hôn hoặc không nghĩ tới điều đó. Sinh viên dự định kết hôn lần đầu lúc 28,9 tuổi, nam trễ hơn nữ là 1,3 năm. Tuổi, giới, tình trạng có người yêu, ngành học và thời gian đào tạo là các yếu tố mối liên quan có ý nghĩa thống kê với tuổi dự định kết hôn lần đầu. Tóm lại, sinh viên năm cuối tại các trường đại học tại TP.HCM có dự định kết hôn khá trễ so với mức trung bình chung của cả nước. Các bạn chờ đợi đủ tài chính và chín chắn thì mới quyết định kết hôn, đó có thể là lý do chính cho việc kết hôn muộn ở nhóm học vấn cao. Kết hôn muộn mang lại nhiều hệ lụy về sức khỏe cá nhân và giảm mức sinh cộng đồng, các chương trình truyền thông Dân số và Sức khỏe sinh sản cần chú trọng hơn đến đối tượng này nhằm khuyến khích kết hôn sớm hơn so với dự định.

Objectives: This study explored the surgical indications for pituitary adenomas (PAs) in older patients by analyzing the outcomes of the transsphenoidal approach (TSA).Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients aged 65 years or older who underwent TSA from March 2020 to October 2023. We evaluated the preoperative and postoperative neurological and endocrinological features, degree of tumor resection, and perioperative complications.Results: In total, 134 patients aged 65 years or older (20.5%; 70 men and 64 women) underwent TSA (70-74 years: 48 patients, 75-79 years: 14 patients, ≥80 years: 8 patients). Among the 102 PAs, nonfunctioning PAs (NF-PAs) were the most common subtype (n=96, 94.1%), and overall gross total resection was achieved in 89 (87.3%) patients. Intraoperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage occurred in 32 of 102 patients with PAs; however, none of those patients experienced postoperative CSF leakage. In the NF-PA group, endocrinological function improved in 11 (12.6%) patients and worsened in four (4.6%). Preoperative visual field defects were present in 71 (74.6%) patients; 48 (67.6%) of them improved, and 5 (7.0%) worsened. Meningiomas were grossly resected in four of the eight patients, and four of the six patients with visual field defects experienced improvement. One patient had postoperative CSF leakage. Craniopharyngiomas were resected in six of eight patients, including two with recurrent tumors.Conclusion: TSA was safe in patients older than 65 years. However, unpredictable adverse effects could occur. Judicious decisions regarding surgical indications based on the natural history of the tumor subtypes and life expectancy are essential.

Suomalaisen korkeakoulutuspolitiikan tehtävälistalla on pitkään ollut taloudellisen kasvun ja tuottavuuden tavoitteet. Perinteisesti niitä on pyritty edistämään korkeakoulujen rakenteellisella kehittämisellä. Tämän ”korkeakoulutuksen tehostamisdoktriinin” keinovalikoimaan on sittemmin sisällytetty myös korkeakoulutuksen digitalisaatio. Sen myötä tehokkuusdoktriinin painopiste on siirtynyt koulutuksen rakenteista opiskelijan henkisten kapasiteettien optimointiin. Suomessa korkeakoulutuksen digitalisaatiota on ryhdytty edistämään Digivisio 2030 -nimisellä korkeakoulujen yhteishankkeella. Artikkelimme problematisoi hankkeen "arvolupauksia" ja tarkastelee tätä kautta koulutuksen digitalisaatiota sosioteknisenä kuvitelmana eli esityksenä, jonka on tarkoitus ohjata yhteiskuntien ja ihmisten toimintaa kohti teknologiapainotteista tulevaisuutta.
