Examining The Impact of Social Science Teachers’ Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) on Acceptance of Online Teaching and Learning
Authors: Wijayati Erning , Setyosari Punaji , Kuswandi Dedi , Utaya Sugeng
Published: March 2024

This research examines junior high school social studies teachers' technology pedagogy content knowledge (TPACK) and how this knowledge influences acceptance of technology in online teaching and learning. In this study, the quantity approach was applied, while the type of research is descriptive explanatory. A total of 875 social science teachers were surveyed in East Java Province. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) with AMOS version 20 software was used during data analysis. Perceived utility (PU) and perceived ease of use (PEU) are highly impacted by TPACK. Moreover, PEU substantially affects PU, which has been demonstrated to impact behavioural intention to use (BIU) and an attitude toward use (ATU) significantly. As a result, TPACK is essential to adopting online teaching and learning, and its PU is crucial to instructors' attitudes regarding and continuous use of it. It is possible that the characteristics of this sample do not accurately reflect Indonesian social science educators. Research on the potential effects of additional variables, like self-efficacy or social science teacher performance, would be interesting. The integration of TPACK and TAM is examined in this study to generate a conceptual framework based on empirical data.
Forensic database in the member states of the Commonwealth of Independent States
Authors: Klevtsov Kirill
Published: March 2024

Introduction. The article discusses the legal framework and other organizational aspects of the application of criminal records in the member states of the Commonwealth of Independent States, in particular the emphasis on fingerprint and genomedatabase is made. The use of such records has a positive impact on solution and investigation of any crime, as it allows the rapid identification of a perpetrator, as well as the establishment of his involvement or,on the contrary,noninvolvement in the crime under investigation. Methods. In the course of the study the following methods were used, namely: philosophical (dialectic-materialistic); general scientific (analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, abstraction); disciplinary (static); private scientific (dogmatic-legal, comparative law). Results. The study concluded that, in many states, forensic databaseis given a high priority in the fight against crime, resulting in the appropriate legal framework formation, which, in part, needs to be improved to reflect current realities. At the same time, not all of the states under consideration see auniform approach to the creation offingerprint and DNAdatabank, which appears to be determined by different levels of technological infrastructure. Such features should be taken into account when implementing international cooperation in law enforcement among the CIS member states.

Gender Differences in Internet Addiction and Its Impact on Exposure to Pornography and Internet Gaming Disorder
Authors: Sudarto  , Rizqi Ananda Muhammad Alifian
Published: March 2024

Various studies have shown that internet addiction and its impact can vary by gender. Previous research has shown that excessive internet use in men is associated with addiction to video games, while in women it is linked to social media addiction. There is still little research on internet addiction that inferentially inferences its impact on gender differences.  The study aims to test gender differences in internet addiction and its impact on exposure to pornography and Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) among adolescents. The data was collected through a survey of 242 students at one of the state high schools in Jakarta. The results of the study showed no gender differences in internet addiction, but there were gender differences in terms of the impact of Internet addiction on pornography exposure and IGD. MANOVA's results showed an association between internet addictions and pornographic exposure, and IGD. Male adolescents tend to be more exposed to pornography and experience IGD compared to female adolescents. This research brings early warning about the impact of excessive internet use on future online behavioural problems. Although the impact of internet addiction on adolescents is not at its highest level, we need to be careful about this. In the future, access to the Internet is becoming easier and cheaper, plus the world's educational pressure on adolescents students is increasing, fearing that adolescents will seek escape through excessive use of the Internet.

Effectiveness of Online Mediation Response to Divorce Law in Religious Courts in The Era of Pandemic Covid-19
Authors: Reskia Reskia
Published: March 2024

This thesis discusses the use of communication technology to be able to become a solution and a means to support the effectiveness and efficiency of the peace process in online mediation in the Religious Courts. The objectives of the thesis research include: (1) to find out the trend of divorce cases being sued in the Religious Courts, the urgency of implementing and the effectiveness of implementing online mediation in the era of the Covid-19 pandemic. (2) to determine benchmarks for the effectiveness of mediation in the Religious Courts and (3) to determine the effectiveness of online mediation for contested divorces in the Religious Courts during the Covid-19 pandemic era.

This type of research is field research and development (Research and Development) with a sociological juridical approach. The primary data source is in the form of interview data from three informants, namely, the Deputy Chairperson of the Court and the Mediator and is supported by observation and documentation in the form of files or documents related to divorce cases being contested at the Class 1 B Parepare Religious Court. The data in this study were analyzed qualitatively descriptively by testing the validity of the data using the triangulation technique.

The results of this study indicate that (1) during the Covid-19 pandemic, the tendency for divorce cases to be sued at the Parepare Religious Court did not experience a significant change in the number of cases, only in April and May there was a decrease in the number of divorce cases due to the government's policy of restrictions related to emergencies health and the policy of the Parepare Religious Court which limits the number of cases that justice seekers wish to register. (2) Five factors that influence law enforcement, these five factors become benchmarks for measuring the effectiveness of mediation in the Religious Courtsnamely, legal factors, law enforcement factors, infrastructure factors, community factors and cultural factors. So that in divorce cases the benchmark for the success of mediation is the number of cases revoked (3)Mediation conducted online has not been effective as an alternative to dispute resolution in an effort to reconcile the parties who wish to file for divorce, so it is necessary to update the law regarding the regulations governing online mediation which are equipped with telecommunication infrastructure, security systems, and online mediation institutions, especially during the Covid pandemic -19.

Published: March 2024

The experimental results for establishing the optimal parameters of coal silt enrichment on an improved screw like separator is discussed. Controlling and disturbing impacts on the process have been established during the preceding research. Controlling impacts are the rotation frequency of the screw like separator motor and the vertical oscillation amplitude of the separator screw, i.e. vertically acting force; Disturbing impact is the density of coal silt to be enriched. The dependence of the controlled quantities – tailing quality (ash content) and output on controlling impacts has been established and corresponding graphs have been constructed. The dependence is nonlinear, with a distinct maximum. Based on the analysis, optimal variation margins of the rotation frequency and vertical oscillation of the central axle of the screw like separator have been established, within which we will obtain maximum ash content of the enrichment process tailings as well as maximum output of the tailings, and therefore the maximum quality of the concentrate. The connection density between the controlling and controlled parameters has been evaluated according to correlational ratio. The obtained results indicate the validity of the experimental results and the research.
ZUBIRI Y UNA CIENCIA DE LO REAL ALEJADO DEL REALISMO ESPECULATIVO Y CERCANO AL HUMANO DE ESTOS TIEMPOS
Authors: Espinoza Lolas Ricardo
Published: March 2024

Este artículo muestra la importancia de la filosofía de Xavier Zubiri en torno a lo real para comprender tanto a lo humano como a lo político en estos tiempos. Y en ello toma distancia de las filosofías realistas actuales como la del Realismo especulativo por ser una filosofía de carácter eminentemente categorial y que no se hace cargo del humano y de sus problemas que lo acechan de modo urgente. Y, además, muestra cómo el pensamiento de Zubiri se articula mejor con la segunda enseñanza del psicoanalista pensador Jacques Lacan, esto es, la enseñanza de lo real, pues nos indica a un humano que ya no se deja clasificar en ninguna determinación cerrada y totalitaria.
‘FLUENCIA’ Y ‘FONTANAL’ EN XAVIER ZUBIRI
Authors: LIDA MOLLO María
Published: March 2024

En este artículo me propongo analizar los términos ‘fluencia’ y ‘fontanal’ en distintos momentos del itinerario especulativo zubiriano, desde Naturaleza, Historia, Dios hasta la trilogía sobre la Inteligencia sentiente. El objetivo es mostrar no solo la persistencia de estos términos a lo largo de toda la obra de Zubiri, sino también la relevancia de los con-ceptos una vez tras otra implicados. ‘Fontanal’ implica ‘causalidad formal’, ‘actividad’, ‘ca-rácter trascendental de la formalidad’, ‘aprehensión primordial’, ‘actualización’. ‘Fluencia’ y ‘fluir’, con todos sus derivados, implican ‘modo de ser del tiempo’; ‘reversión hacia el Padre en la Trinidad’; ‘figuración’ y ‘personalidad’; ‘dimensión social’; ‘logos’; ‘razón’ y ‘reactuali-zación’.
NOTAS SOBRE LA IRRESPECTIVIDAD DE DIOS EN ZUBIRI
Authors: García Nuño Alfonso
Published: March 2024

Zubiri, en su libro Sobre la esencia (1962), afirmó la irrespectividad de Dios. Esto no lo explicitó en los años finales de su vida, aquellos en que publicó Inteligencia sen-tiente (1980-83), pero tampoco lo rechazó. Vamos a preguntarnos si este silencio habría que entenderlo como un abandono implícito de esta idea o si, por el contrario, siguió considerán-dolo así, pese a no explicitarlo. Para ello, en un primer momento, presentaremos brevemente la idea de irrespectividad en su gran libro metafísico y, por último, tomaremos brevemente algunas notas sobre algunos argumentos que puedan servir para revisar la idea del rechazo de la irrespectividad de Dios en el último Zubiri.

Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessively inherited monogenic disease caused by a mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, located on the long arm of chromosome 7 (7q31.2). This mutation results in a disruption in the transport of sodium and chloride ions between intercellular fluid and the epithelial cells of the excretory ducts of the exocrine glands. This paper presents the description of a family case of cystic fibrosis involving two patients who have been under observation since birth and are sisters (patient A – 4 years 10 months, patient B – 1 year 11 months). In both patients, neonatal screening and sequential diagnosis of cystic fibrosis identified the DF508/CFTRdele2.3(21kb) mutation, the most prevalent among the Caucasian population in the Russian Federation. The primary concern in managing both patients is the correction of nutritional status and minimization of exacerbations of chronic bronchopulmonary inflammation. To determine the management strategy for these patients, a consultation was held with Dr. E.I. Kondratyeva, a leading cystic fibrosis expert and professor at the MGSC Institute, who serves as the head of the Scientific and Clinical Department of Cystic Fibrosis and the Department of Genetics of Respiratory System Diseases, an expert of the European Society for Cystic Fibrosis Committee on Diagnostics and Registry, and Deputy Chief for Scientific Work of Research Clinical Institute of Childhood of the Ministry of Health of the Moscow Region. The peculiarity of the presented clinical cases lies in the fact that within one family, with an interval of 3 years, two girls with severe disease were born. Early diagnosis was performed for both, which has allowed for the slowing down of the pathology's progression.

Published: March 2024

Aim. The study of clinical and functional characteristics, features of pharmacotherapy and the level of adherence in severe and difficult-to-treat bronchial asthma in real clinical practice to optimize pathogenetic therapy measures.

Materials and methods. 143 patients diagnosed with severe bronchial asthma were examined. Patients were divided into 2 groups: difficult-to-treat bronchial asthma and severe bronchial asthma. Examination methods included: anamnestic method, physical examination, filling out the ACQ-5 questionnaire, AST, the Morisky-Green questionnaire, instrumental (spirography with bronchodilator), laboratory methods.

Results. Most of the studied patients were patients with difficultto-treat bronchial asthma (55%), while patients with severe bronchial asthma accounted for 45% of the total number of patients. We noted that patients of the 1st group were more often hospitalized due to an exacerbation of the disease. There were no significant differences in clinical and functional parameters and in the structure of comorbidity. All patients received the amount of basic therapy corresponding to stages 4 and 5 in accordance with GINA 2022. According to the results of the Morisky-Green questionnaire, lack of adherence was recorded in 79% of cases. Incorrect inhalation technique among patients of the 1st group was recorded in 32% of cases, while an uncontrolled course of concomitant pathology was detected in a third (33%) of cases. In group 2, 94% of patients had at least one marker of T2 inflammation.

Conclusions. Among patients with difficult-to-treat asthma, truly severe bronchial asthma was confirmed in 45% of cases, bronchial asthma difficult-to-treat - in 55% of cases. Lack of adherence (79% of cases), uncontrolled course of comorbidity (33%), and incorrect inhalation technique (32% of cases) are the main factors hindering the achievement of control in the difficult-to-treat asthma group. For patients with difficult-to-treat asthma, it is necessary to take measures aimed primarily at improving adherence to treatment.

Introduction. COVID-19 in pregnant women adversely affects the course of the disease, pregnancy outcomes, and morbidity in newborns. However, studies on the impact of the gestational age at which SARS-CoV-2 infection occurs on the risk of neonatal morbidity are lacking.

Aim. To assess the risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes and neonatal morbidity in newborns depending on the gestational age at which women were infected with SARS-CoV-2.

Materials and methods. The study included 215 women infected with SARS-CoV-2 in the first, second, and third trimesters of pregnancy and 50 uninfected pregnant women. Newborns formed corresponding groups. Data for analysis (general clinical, anamnestic, childbirth outcomes, and newborn condition) were obtained from the records of pregnant, laboring, and postpartum women.

Results. In 4.7% of women infected in the first trimester, pregnancy was accompanied by spontaneous miscarriage and in 1.9% by ectopic pregnancy development. In 1.9% of women infected in the second trimester, antenatal fetal demise in a full-term pregnancy was detected. Patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 more often underwent cesarean section (31.7%). The median weight and height of newborns from mothers infected with SARS-CoV-2 were lower than in the control group. The Apgar score at the first minute showed no differences, but at the fifth minute, it was lower than in the control group. Newborns from mothers infected with SARS-CoV-2 were more frequently diagnosed with cerebral ischemia (26.3%), motor disorder syndrome (20.7%), and persistent fetal circulation (27.8%). Only in newborns from mothers with SARS-CoV-2 were hypertensive syndrome (13.1%), posthypoxic cardiomyopathy (13.1%), and intraventricular hemorrhages (10.1%) detected. The Apgar score at the first minute in newborns from mothers infected with SARS-CoV-2 in the third trimester of pregnancy was higher compared to infections in the second trimester. Neonatal morbidity in this cohort of newborns was characterized by a high frequency of cerebral ischemia, motor disorder syndrome, hypertensive syndrome, and persistent fetal circulation. Infection in the third trimester increased the risk of neonatal morbidity: cerebral ischemia by 5.6 times, motor disorder syndrome by 13.78 times, hypertensive syndrome by 8.61 times, and persistent fetal circulation by 2.76 times.

Conclusion. COVID-19 during pregnancy increases the risks of adverse outcomes and the development of neonatal pathology in newborns. The frequency of their development is associated with the gestational age at which women were infected. Infection of women with SARS-CoV-2 in the first and second trimesters of pregnancy increases the risk of spontaneous miscarriage and antenatal fetal death, in the third trimester – the development of intraventricular hemorrhages and posthypoxic cardiomyopathy in newborns.

A temática apresentada neste artigo trata dos comportamentos proativos e autonomia em estudantes do Ensino Superior, a partir da Teoria Histórico-Cultural (THC). Segundo a Teoria Histórico-Cultural, a atividade tem um papel fundamental no entendimento do desenvolvimento humano e são as aprendizagens que promovem desenvolvimento das funções psíquicas superiores. O objetivo geral de nosso estudo foi investigar o que dizem as pesquisas acerca dos comportamentos proativos e autônomos para a aprendizagem no ensino superior e verificar se existem pesquisas que fazem esse estudo a partir da Teoria Histórico-Cultural. As buscas em repositórios institucionais revelam uma lacuna sobre o assunto e a necessidade de maior aprofundamento. Foram encontrados vários trabalhos sobre proatividade defendidos a partir de correntes mercadológicas de adaptação do indivíduo ao mercado de trabalho. Em menor quantidade foram encontrados trabalhos fundamentados na THC, entretanto não com o nome “proatividade”. Pesquisamos utilizando o nome “autonomia” para que fosse possível encontrar os trabalhos. As publicações encontradas defendem que, no Ensino Superior, se faz necessário dar ênfase ao lado prático das atividades com os alunos, já que estão se preparando para a atividade profissional, entretanto essa prática precisa ser compreendida a partir de estudos teóricos. Conhecer a teoria vai possibilitar autonomia para que os futuros profissionais analisem quaisquer situações práticas durante a atuação.

Authors:   State Biotecnological University, Poltavets Anatolii
Published: March 2024

The study substantiates the approaches to the typology of land resource management mechanisms at agrarian enterprises, and the development of the architecture of the economic and organizational mechanisms for the formation and use of land resources at agrarian enterprises are carried out. The typology of land resource management mechanisms at agrarian enterprises is determined by identifying the mechanisms of the use of resources at agrarian enterprises and the mechanisms of managing this process in the organizational-economic, production-technological and agro-ecological perspectives with further integration of the specified mechanisms into the management system of the functioning and development of agrarian enterprises. The elements and their interrelation within the framework of the economic mechanism for the formation of the conditions for the land use process at agrarian enterprises and the architecture of the organizational mechanism of the use of land resources at agrarian enterprises are proposed. It was established that from organizational standpoint, only two subjects influence the process of land resource use, namely: the enterprise directly, which implements its production policy, and the state, which exercises its regulatory influence. It has been proven that in the organizational and economic perspective there are processes of involvement in economic use and withdrawal from economic use of certain land plots that are used or can be used in the implementation of the main activity at agrarian enterprises. The application of the listed tools and means of influence on the process of land resource use determines the integration of the land resource use management mechanism directly into its management. Key words: land resources, land use, economic mechanism, organizational mechanism, resource management, rational land use.

Published: March 2024

Richter transformation (RT) refers to a transformational process of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) into a more aggressive form. CLL is considered an indolent lymphoma with no avidity to 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT). RT transforms CLL into a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Hodgkin’s lymphoma, or prolymphocytic leukemia, and the lymphoid tissue becomes highly FDG avid. The main value of 18F-FDG PET/CT in CLL patients lies in its ability to exclude RT with high negative predictive value and identify sites of increased 18F-FDG uptake that is suitable for biopsy. In our retrospective analysis, we examined 12 patients suspected of RT, who were included in our study between November 2018 and December 2022. 18F-FDG PET/CT was considered for patients with enlarged lymph node, fever, and elevated lactate dehydrogenase levels. A cutoff standardized uptake value (SUVmax) = 5 was chosen empirically based on our institutional practice. Extranodal disease was suspected if abnormal 18F-FDG uptake was observed in the liver, spleen, bone marrow, or another organ. In this study, the specificity of 18F-FDG PET/CT was 44.5%, with positive and negative predictive values of 37.5% and 100%, respectively. Frequencies of cases with increased uptake of 18F-FDG in the “only nodal sites” and “nodal and extranodal sites,” relative to positive biopsies, were 20% and 66%, respectively.
Natural carotenoids as a potential chemopreventive agent for prostate cancer: A literature review

Published: March 2024

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men and the second leading cause of cancer death among men worldwide. While the exact etiology of PCa remains unclear, various factors contribute to the onset of the disease. These factors include modifiable risk factors such as physical activity, diet, obesity, smoking, alcohol consumption, and exposure to environmental agents. In addition, unmodifiable risk factors such as age and ethnicity play a role, with men of African ancestry being more susceptible to the disease. Despite the availability of potential treatment options, prevention is of utmost importance in reducing the incidence of PCa. Researchers have turned their attention to carotenoids, which are natural compounds derived from fruit and vegetables such as citrus, tomato, and green leafy vegetables, due to their potential chemopreventive effects. Multiple phase II clinical trials have indicated a reduced incidence and progression of diagnosed PCa in patients. Laboratory studies on PCa cell lines have demonstrated that carotenoids induce apoptosis and reduce cellular accumulation and adhesion of PCa cells in a dose-dependent manner. In this literature review, we assess the chemopreventive potential of the most common carotenoids: α-carotene, β-carotene, lycopene, lutein, and β-cryptoxanthin, which are often found in a heterogeneous mixture. We also discuss their potential clinical use as well as challenges related to their safety and bioavailability. Overall, a better understanding of the etiology and pathophysiology of PCa will lead to the development of improved preventative strategies and treatments for the disease.

The reloading of a ship in a maritime container terminal as a queuing problem of interacting processes
Authors: Bartosiewicz Aleksandra , Kucharski Adam
Published: March 2024

In this work, we propose a multi-server queuing system for modeling the processes that occur in a maritime container terminal. In our study, the main operations that take place at the quay and in the yard are first disaggregated into several elementary activities. Then we propose the step-by-step calculation of the times of each operation that influences both the unloading and the loading of a container. Next, we analyze the vessel cycle time while separately investigating the STS (ship to shore) crane cycle time, the RTG (rubber tyred gantry) cycle time, as well as the IMV (internal movement vehicle) transfer time. Finally, we apply two process-driven simulation experiments to the system analysis. The paper demonstrates the proposed model’s effectiveness with data from the BCT Gdynia container terminal. We show that, among others, even with properly planned work of STS cranes and RTGs, there is still a high probability that the quay will become a bottleneck of the described processes.

Constitutional law matters of sustainable development under martial law: The case of Ukraine
Authors: Lvova Ielyzaveta
Published: March 2024

The article discusses a general vision of constitutional law matters related to sustainable development during wartime in Ukraine. The research contributes to the study of legislation by using legal norms, acts and cases. Enshrined in the Preamble of the Constitution of Ukraine, the state strategic course for Ukraine’s full membership in the European Union and NATO provides for positive developments in approximating Ukrainian legislation to EU regulations. The article shows that the benefits of cooperation for sustainable development may occur only if the central and municipal authorities undertake environmental protection measures in Ukraine in three dimensions: environmental security and preventing the pollution of the environment during the war; private–public cooperation under martial law; and community leadership and mass media contacts.

Understanding Chinese Tourists’ Future Travel Intention to Thailand: A Hybrid Approach Using Pls-Sem and fsQCA
Authors: Wang Dimin , Wu Xianmei , Zhang Xiangmeng
Published: March 2024

China holds the position of top spender in international tourism. Despite that Chinese tourists’ behaviors have been researched extensively, limited attention has been given to understanding their travel intention towards Thailand, a popular destination in Southeast Asia. This
study proposes a theoretical framework via extended theory of planned behavior (TPB) model to ascertain factors influencing Chinese tourists’ travel intention to Thailand. With 261 data collected online, the study carried out analysis by using partial least squares structural equation
modeling (PLS-SEM) and fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA). The results revealed that the predictability of the extended TPB model was improved, highlighted tourists’ attitudes and destination attachments played pivotal roles in determining tourists’ travel intentions,
and perceived behavioral control positively affected attitude. Moreover, tourists’ attitudes and subjective norm significantly influenced destination attachment. The mediation analysis revealed that the effects of attitude and subjective norm on travel intention were transferred through
their attachments. The fsQCA analysis identified four heterogenous configurations to generate tourists’ travel intention. Methodologically, the study advanced the theoretical understanding of extended TPB model via a mixed approach of PLS-SEM and fsQCA, and obtained a unique perspective
of interdependencies among various factors that influence tourists’ travel intention and behaviors. Managerial implications are provided to comparable tourism destinations across Asia to appeal prospective tourists.
Wind Energy Conversion System with Integrated Power Smoothing Capability based on an EVT-coupled Flywheel
Authors: Cendoya Marcelo G. , Verne Santiago A. , Valla María I. , Battaiotto Pedro E.
Published: March 2024

This paper presents a wind energy conversion system that integrates, in a compact form, both generation and power smoothing functions. The system is based on a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) and a low-speed flywheel that are coupled by an electric variable transmission (EVT). The EVT performs a dual function by simultaneously injecting power to the grid and regulating the power flow to the flywheel to smooth the power fluctuation caused by wind turbulences. The main advantages of the presented generation/smoothing topology are integrating two machines (generator and motor) in the same physical structure and the reduced power demanded by the converter that feeds the flywheel’s rotor. A theoretical analysis is carried out to determine an appropriate control law and flywheel sizing to satisfy a desired attenuation of the power fluctuation. Simulation results show an effective smoothing action, as the power fluctuation is reduced to an adequate level. In addition, the validity of the flywheel sizing procedure is verified.

Authors: Faradita Mutia Putri , Kurniawan Rahmat
Published: March 2024

The study aims to test and demonstrate the impact of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) disclosure on tax aggressiveness with profit management as a mediation. The research was carried out using the quantitative method involving 26 companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (BEI) from 2019 to 2021. Data collection methods used are library studies or documentation methods. The results of this study show that in part, ESG disclosure has no effect on tax aggressiveness, while ESG exposure has a negative effect on profit management, as well as profit management has a positive impact on tax agresiveness. The results in this study also show that with the analysis of the profit management pathway can mediate the impact of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) disclosures on tax aggression. The research provides the constitution as a literature for further researchers and as additional information and input material for investors in making decisions. For governments, it can be an input to make more specific policies in the implementation of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) and input in evaluating and maximizing tax-related policies.
