Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Lee Yujin , Yun Kyoungsun
Published: February 2025

Objectives This study aimed to analyze the smoking level and influencing factors according to the female students.
Methods A total of 26,110 female students were selected and analyzed using the 19th Korean Youth Risk Behavior Survey. The Rao-Scott chi-square test was conducted to examine the differences in demographic characteristics, health behavior characteristics, and mental health characteristics according to female students' smoking status, and complex sample logistic regression was performed to determine the factors affecting female students' smoking.
Results As a result of analyzing data from 26,110 female students, 3.5% of female students were currently smoking. Female students with ‘high’ economic status were 0.81 times less likely to smoke than students with ‘low’ economic status, and students who responded that sleep was enough to recover from fatigue were 0.79 times less likely to smoke than students who responded that it was not. Female students who had experienced sexual intercourse were 13.07 times more likely to smoke than those who had not, and female students who had experienced hospital treatment due to violence were 4.89 times more likely to smoke than female students who had not. Female students who felt happy were 0.83 times more likely to smoke than female students who felt un happy, and female students who felt sad, hopeless, and lonely were 1.91 and 1.42 times more likely to smoke than female students who did not felt. Female students who thought about or planned suicide were 1.54-1.63 times more likely to smoke than those who did not.
Conclusions Based on the results of this study, careful and differentiated smoking cessation education is needed by identifying the factors that affect female students' smoking, and continuous attention from home and school is needed to help female students grow into healthy and balanced adults.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Kwon Min-Seong , Hong Ji-Yun , Son A-Hyun , Kang Seung-Hee
Published: February 2025

Objectives The purpose of this study is to examine the challenges faced by school counselors when providing counseling to students experiencing school maladjustment, and to explore support strategies to address these difficulties.
Methods From August 1 to September 3, 2023, a survey was conducted with a sample of 54 school counselors selected through random sampling. The survey data were analyzed using SPSS WIN 22.0, with frequency (N) and percentage (%) calculated for the multiple-choice items. Additionally, six participants were recruited for in-depth one-on-one interviews conducted via the online platform ZOOM. The qualitative data were analyzed following Krippendorff’s (2003) content analysis procedures, resulting in the conceptualization and categorization of partic ipants’ experiences into 2 domains, 8 categories, and 15 subcategories. This study employed a mixed-methods approach, integrating quantitative and qualitative research for an in-depth analysis.
Results The content analysis identified 2 main domains, 8 categories, and 16 subcategories. The major challenges in counseling students with school maladaptation are as follows: First, institutional limitations in the school coun seling system make it difficult to provide flexible responses to specific situations, and the lack of awareness among school staff about counseling hinders the counseling process. Second, maintaining the counselor's pro fessional competence while managing psychological burdens is a significant issue, as the concentration of re sponsibility and unrealistic expectations of counseling outcomes lead to feelings of helplessness among counselors. Third, the complexity and diversity of students' issues require tailored approaches and responses to involuntary counseling, with a lack of cooperation from teachers and parents being a further concern. Strengthening counselor support systems and establishing collaborative networks are essential to addressing these challenges.
Conclusions This study holds significance in exploring the challenges faced by school counselors and proposing support strategies through institutional improvements and the need for external resource linkage. These findings may serve as practical improvements to enable school counselors to more effectively support students struggling with school adjustment and to alleviate their workload.

Authors: Ludden-­Schlatter Alicia , Bunt Stephanie , Hanrahan Kate DuChene
Published: February 2025

Background and Objectives: Residencies train residents in procedures and assess their competency, but existing assessment tools have demonstrated poor reliability and have not been validated.
Methods: This mixed-methods study validated a shave biopsy checklist with family medicine and dermatology faculty at two academic centers. In each phase of the study, teaching faculty scored a video-recorded simulated procedure using the checklist, and investigators assessed content validity, interrater reliability, and accuracy.
Results: In focus groups of nine family medicine and dermatology faculty, 16 of 18 checklist items met or surpassed 80% interrater reliability. Overall checklist reliability was 74%. Focus group surveys initially revealed insufficient content validity. Lowest performing items were removed, and then the follow-up content validity index (0.76) surpassed the required threshold (0.62). Twenty-one of 70 family medicine faculty completed a final survey, which showed a content validity index of 0.63, surpassing the required threshold of 0.42. Twelve of 70 family medicine faculty viewed and scored a simulated video-recorded procedure. Overall interrater reliability was 91% (Cohen’s d=1.36). Fourteen of 16 checklist items demonstrated greater than or equal to 90% interrater reliability. Accuracy analysis revealed 67.9% correct responses in focus groups and 84.9% in final testing (simple t test, P<.001, Cohen’s d=1.4).
Conclusions: This rigorously validated checklist demonstrates appropriate content validity, interrater reliability, and accuracy. Findings support use of this shave biopsy checklist as an objective mastery standard for medical education and as a tool for formative assessment of procedural competency.
Family Medicine Residency Faculty: Inpatient Staffing, Satisfaction, and Turnover
Authors: Hidaka Brandon , Smith Emily R. , Furlano Anthony J. , Nordin Terri , Ruppel Lindsey M. , Waheed Abdul
Published: February 2025

Background and Objectives: Physician scheduling affects job satisfaction and retention. This study explores how family medicine residency inpatient staffing relates to core faculty retention and program director (PD) perception of faculty satisfaction with work-life integration.
Methods: A total of 280 family medicine residency PDs responded to the 2023 Council of Academic Family Medicine Education Research Alliance survey. We used the ꭓ2 test to explore associations among program demographics, inpatient staffing characteristics, faculty retention, and PD-reported faculty satisfaction with work-life integration. We measured associations among pairs of ordinal variables with Spearman’s correlation.
Results: In two-thirds (66%) of programs, faculty cover the inpatient service at least every 8 weeks, with 40% of programs reporting averages of 70 or more hours per inpatient week; nevertheless, most programs’ faculty were perceived to be satisfied with less than 10% turnover. The number of hours per week was inversely associated with PD-reported faculty satisfaction (r=-0.21, P=.001). Faculty turnover was directly associated with community size (r=0.17, P=.01). Faculty turnover was more likely to be greater than 10% if the number of hours per inpatient week was more than 89 (odds ratio 12.4, P=.02). Faculty turnover, PD-reported faculty dissatisfaction, and plans to change inpatient staffing were all correlated (r>0.28, P<.0001).
Conclusions: Most family medicine residencies have core faculty cover the inpatient service at least once every 8 weeks, during which they work at least 60 hours per week. Longer hours are associated with lower perceived faculty satisfaction of work-life integration, with a threshold effect on faculty turnover. Family medicine residency programs must carefully balance the needs of residents, the community served, and faculty themselves.
Voluntary disclosure of non-financial information: The case of family and non-family businesses in Italy
Authors: Napoli Francesco
Published: February 2025

This paper conducts an empirical analysis using two distinct indicators of voluntary disclosure, one focusing upon research and development (R&D) and the other on strategy, and, in this way, reveals that when quoted Italian firms (family and non-family) increase the intensity of their R&D activity, they also increase voluntary disclosure of information about both R&D and strategy, but the different attitude towards the two components of voluntary disclosure is demonstrated by the behaviour of the two types of firms. In particular, family firms are more inclined to increase the component of information on strategy and much less on R&D. The empirical results support the hypotheses that suggest that the importance and usefulness of providing accurate information about firm strategies is much higher in family governance than in managerial governance. Therefore, the paper makes a contribution to the topic of voluntary disclosure and the different forms of behaviour that family and non-family firms adopt in this regard.

EU-Ukraine agricultural trade relations during the 2022 war crisis
Authors:   Warsaw University of Life Sciences, Zawojska Aldona , Siudek Tomasz ,   Warsaw University of Life Sciences
Published: February 2025

This article aims to examine the impact of the Russian military aggression against Ukraine in February 2022 on the EU trade policy towards Ukraine and its consequences, with a focus on the agricultural sector and mutual trade in farm products. The research employed theoretical explanations, descriptive and empirical analysis. It draws upon the review of academic literature on international trade and political economy, as well as legislation and other documents for its analytical part. For the empirical part, the study employs Eurostat statistical data to show the changes in trade in selected agricultural products between Ukraine and the EU. The comparison of trade turnover is based on a time series that includes data both before and after the Russian invasion. The research indicates that, as a response to the war, the EU has temporarily lifted restrictions on imports from Ukraine as a gesture of solidarity. The implementation of this
policy has initially led to a sudden influx of cheaper Ukrainian agricultural products, including cereals, into the EU territory, particularly Ukraine's neighbouring countries. For wheat and meslin, the EU imports were 11 and 22 times higher in 2022 and 2023 than in 2021. This influx of grain has created an unbalanced market and raised concerns about the competitiveness and welfare of local agricultural producers. As a result, farmers in many EU countries organised protests and demonstrations calling for more protectionist, pro-agricultural policies at the EU level, inflaming relations with Ukraine and contributing to a loss of confidence in the EU institutions among part of the public.
Trends in agricultural land prices in Poland and in the European Union
Authors:   Warsaw University of Life Sciences, Danilowska Alina
Published: February 2025

The article aims to identify the agricultural land price trends in Poland and the European Union (EU) from 2013 to 2022. The study encompasses EU member countries for which data on arable land prices and permanent grassland prices for 2013-2022 are available. The analysis showed that prices of arable land and permanent grassland increased noticeably during the ten years in most countries. In Poland, they doubled. The countries that recorded a decline belonged to old EU members. Arable land prices were higher than grassland prices. In several countries, the differences were significant. Over the ten years, the price advantage for arable land on permanent grassland increased in most countries surveyed. The annual growth rates fluctuated noticeably. The spectacular high changes occurred mainly in post-socialistic countries due to changes in law. Price growth in the old Member States was generally lower than in post socialist countries. The spread of agricultural land prices between countries has declined. These phenomena prove the slow process of convergence of agricultural land prices. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected agricultural land prices. It shifted the prices up.
How are cantonese sentence-final particles phonologically and semantically processed in the mind?
Authors: Lu Aitao , Wang Xuebin , Zhang Ye , Liu Siyi , Huang Xin , Jiang Lilan
Published: February 2025

This study investigates the semantic and phonological processing of Cantonese
sentence-final particles (SFPs) in the mind. Experiment 1 showed that the
reaction times (RTs) of Cantonese SFPs were shortest in the congruent
condition, followed by the incongruent condition, and longest in the
category-congruent condition, while in terms of Cantonese content-words the
RTs were shortest in the congruent condition, but followed by the
category-congruent condition, and longest in the incongruent condition.
Experiment 2 showed that in congruent trials the RTs of Cantonese SFPs and
content words in the right-ear condition were shorter than those in the
left-ear condition, while the pattern was reverse in the category-congruent
and the incongruent trials. Experiment 3 showed that in the vowel condition,
Cantonese speakers exhibited shorter RTs for SFPs compared to content words,
while Mandarin speakers had longer RTs for SFPs relative to content words.
However, in the consonant condition, the RTs for both Cantonese and Mandarin
speakers were comparable between SFPs and content words. The findings of
this study suggest that: (1) Cantonese SFPs are distinct from content words
and possess a unique semantic representation; (2) Cantonese speakers exhibit
greater potential in processing the vowels of SFPs, possibly due to their
enhanced ability to maintain short-term memory for this type of phonemes;
and (3) SFPs appear to be more affected by a speaker?s exposure to Cantonese
than content words. This suggests that linguistic experience plays a crucial
role in shaping the perception of phonemes and phonetic features associated
with Cantonese SFPs.
Resin Composite Depth of Cure Through Transparent Matrix Materials Used for Injection Molding
Authors: Lawson NC , Greene Z , Machado N , Tadros D , Robles A , Rocha M
Published: February 2025

Objectives:

The purpose of this study was to compare the curing light transmittance and depth of cure (DOC) of resin composite through clear polyvinyl siloxane (PVS) impression materials and 3D printed clear matrix materials at various thicknesses.

Methods and Materials:

Cylindrical specimens (n=6) of three clear PVS materials (Affinity Crystal, Clear Bite Matrix, Exaclear) were fabricated in Teflon molds, and two 3D-printed clear matrix materials (Filtek matrix, IDB 2) were printed into specimens of five different thicknesses (2 mm, 4 mm, 6 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm). To measure light irradiance transmittance, specimens were placed on a radiometer (CheckUp), allowing the transmitted irradiance from a light-curing unit (Elipar DeepCure-S, 1450 mW/cm2) to be recorded. DOC of resin composite specimens was measured by placing flowable composite (PVS and IDB 2) or heated conventional composite (Filtek Matrix) into a split metal die with a 4 mm diameter opening. The composite was cured through the different matrix specimens using the Elipar DeepCure-S curing light for the manufacturer’s recommended curing time (10 seconds) or double the curing time (20 seconds). The DOC of the composite specimens was measured according to ISO 4049 7.8, and the percentage of total cure (%TC) was calculated by dividing by the total cure (DOC with no matrix and 10-second cure). The correlation between irradiance transmittance and %TC was analyzed with Pearson’s coefficient. For each matrix material, the %TC was compared to the total cure of the material using a Dunnett’s test. The compressive modulus of each material was measured and compared with a one-way ANOVA.

Results:

There was a statistically significant, strong positive correlation between irradiance transmittance and %TC for 10 seconds (r=0.90 p<0.001) and 20 seconds (r=0.89 p<0.001). There was not a statistically different DOC for the total cure with Affinity (2 mm), Clear Bite (2 mm), Exaclear (2, 4, 6 mm), IDB2 (2, 4, 6, 8 mm), and Filtek Matrix (2,4 mm) if a 20-second cure was used.

Conclusions:

Decreased light irradiance from curing through clear matrix materials decreases the DOC of resin composites. Doubling the curing time when curing through some matrix materials at certain thicknesses allowed a total cure.

microorganisms to guide clinical decision-making and improve therapeutic strategies. A total of 212 blood cultures were
analyzed, of which 45 (21.22%) were positive. Among these, 71.12% were Gram-positive bacteria, while 26.67% were Gramnegative. The majority of affected patients were male (57%), with a sex ratio of 1.3, and pediatric cases were significantly
represented. Automated blood culture systems (BACT/ALERT®) and identification by VITEK-2 facilitated pathogen detection.
Antibiotic resistance was a major concern, with 44.44% of Staphylococcus aureus strains resistant to penicillin M, while
Klebsiella pneumoniae exhibited multidrug resistance, including extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) production. A
notable case of candidemia was observed in a premature neonate, who presented persistent fever and sepsis unresponsive to
antibiotics. Early identification of Candida spp. led to antifungal therapy with fluconazole, resulting in clinical improvement.
This highlights the importance of considering fungal infections in high-risk patients. These findings emphasize the critical role
of continuous surveillance of bacterial resistance patterns in optimizing empirical antibiotic therapy and infection control
strategies. Strengthening antimicrobial stewardship programs and laboratory diagnostic capabilities is essential to improving
patient outcomes and limiting the spread of multidrug-resistant organisms.

The implementation of the Senior High School (SHS) Mathematics curriculum in the Philippines has introduced new challenges for both teachers and students, particularly in adapting to the demands of the K to 12 education reform. This study assessed the seriousness of issues encountered in implementing the SHS Mathematics curriculum based on the perceptions of SHS mathematics teachers and students in the Department of Education at Calbayog City Division, Samar, Philippines. Using a descriptive survey design, the study involved 31 mathematics teachers, identified through total enumeration sampling, and 320 SHS students, selected via simple random sampling. A 4-point Likert-type scale survey questionnaire was used to examine the implementation issues of the SHS Mathematics curriculum. The results revealed that mathematics teachers perceived curriculum-related, teacher-related, and student-related issues as moderately serious, highlighting significant challenges such as gaps in foundational knowledge, insufficient preparedness, and difficulty adapting to the increased academic demands of the SHS program. In contrast, SHS students rated curriculum and teacher-related issues as moderately serious but viewed student-related issues as less serious. These results emphasize the need for professional development programs that equip teachers with student-centered pedagogical strategies to address diverse learning needs. To enhance teaching effectiveness and improve student outcomes, it is recommended that SHS mathematics teachers receive sufficient support, including access to relevant training and resources.
