Local Wisdom of 3 (Three) Batu Tungku in Handling Pancasila-Based Conflicts
Authors: Luturmas Asnat Juljana , Wardhani Lita Tyesta Addy Listya , . Sukirno , Taufik Iqbal
Published: July 2024

One of the Pancasila-based conflict management arrangements is the local wisdom of 3 (three) hearth stones. Local wisdom is 3 (three) hearthstones in handling conflict involving the Head of Government, Traditional Leaders and Religious Leaders. Conflict handling using local wisdom has not been implemented optimally, even though it really touches the basic part of community life itself, where the local wisdom of 3 Batu Tungku is carried out with a joint handling process within the family involving the village authority as Head of Government to control the course of the procession, Traditional Leaders play an important role as a liaison with the ancestors to carry out PAMALI traditional ceremonies, and the involvement of Religious Figures as a sign of belief in the God they believe in, these three institutions work together and maintain each other's calling duties when they function so that they do not leave behind grudges and hatred. The continuity of conflict management based on the local wisdom of 3 hearth stones carried out in Maluku, especially on Buru Island in Buru Regency, is also an answer to the recommendation for the creation of regional regulations to strengthen conflict management in the Republic of Indonesia region based on Pancasila as a follow-up to the implementation of the PKS Law and Regional Government Law and in accordance with the Principles 4 of the Republic of Indonesia Pancasila.
Investigating Power and Control: Uses Of ‘Invariant Tag’ Questions in Malaysian Criminal Trials
Authors: Sani Zurshafawati Ahmad , Sani Fatin Rahaina Ahmad
Published: July 2024

This paper examines invariant tag questions in the 16 Malaysian criminal proceedings (MAYCRIM) corpus, focusing on their role in cross-examination. Cross-examination questions are pivotal as they elicit information and confirmations from witnesses while allowing them to narrate events. Using a corpus-based forensic discourse analysis, the study combines quantitative and qualitative methods to uncover patterns in tag question usage. Five common agreement tags—do you agree, agree/setuju, correct/betul, particle tak/not, and do you know—are identified as tools for Malaysian barristers to exert coercive pressure on witnesses. The critical analysis reveals a preference for the tag do you agree due to its coercive power. The paper concludes with a discussion on the theoretical and pragmatic implications of these findings for bilingual adversarial systems or postcolonial jurisdictions. It also highlights the disadvantaged position of laypeople in bilingual courtrooms, offering insights and proposing potential solutions to address these challenges.

Authors: Wankhede Kalyani , Deshmukh Amit
Published: July 2024

Researchers and designers have begun to devote more time and energy to studying urban escape scenarios because they know how important it is to comprehend the complex ways in which people perceive and interact with the built environment. Olfaction, the sense of scent, is an important part of this multimodal experience since it greatly influences how perceive and engage with the environment. The importance of smell is magnified in Asian urban settings since these places frequently offer a varied and varied sensory landscape, marked by a multitude of environmental, cultural, and gastronomic influences. Architects, urban planners, and legislators may develop more inclusive and responsive natural settings that cater to the multimodal demands of various people by understanding the function of olfactory perception in constructing the sensescape in these cities.

Effects Of Bupivacaine And Buprenorphine On Postoperative Analgesia In A Nerve Stimulator-Guided Supraclavian Plexus Block: A Randomised, Double-Blind Comparison Study
Authors: Md. Zakir  , Dr. Meraj Ahmed
Published: July 2024

There have been several attempts to find an adjuvant that would increase the analgesic effectiveness of local anaesthetics in supraclavicular brachial plexus blocks. Previous research has shown that supraclavicular brachial plexus blocks that include opioids in addition to local anaesthetics provide analgesia that is equivalent to that of the two methods alone. As a result, I've contrasted two groups of patients in my study: one that got bupivacaine alone, and another that got a mix of the two.The purpose of this research is to evaluate the efficacy of bupivacaine alone and bupivacaine with buprenorphine for postoperative pain management in nerve stimulator guided supraclavicular brachial plexus blocks.Looking Forward to Sixty patients participated in the 18-month, randomised, double-blind control trial that took place from March 2021 to August 2022 at the Khaja Banda Nawaz Teaching and General Hospital in Kalaburagi. Thirty patients each were assigned to one of two groups.The first group had 15 millilitres of 2% lignocaine with adrenaline, 20 millilitres of 0.5 percent bupivacaine, and 5 millilitres of normal saline.Fluids administered to Group B consisted of 15 ml of Inj.2% Lignocaine with Adrenaline, 20 ml of Inj.0.5% Bupivacaine, and 3 mcg/kg of Inj. Buprenorphine diluted to 5 ml with Normal Saline.The time it took for sensory blockage to begin in Group A was 9.70 minutes, whereas in Group B it was 9.26 minutes. The sensory blockage in Group A lasted 329.17 minutes, whereas in Group B it lasted 586.83 minutes. Both groups had comparable onset of motor blockage. Group B's time was 11.50 minutes, while Group A's was 11.67 minutes. Both Group A and Group B had motor block durations of 299.5 and 299.16 minutes, respectively. Group A's analgesia lasted 5.04 hours, whereas Group B's was 10.7 hours. Group A required rescue analgesics after 7.1 hours, whereas Group B required them after 13.1 hours. The hemodynamic parameters were similar across the two groups.Patients having operations on their upper limbs might benefit from a supraclavicular brachial plexus block with bupivacaine and buprenorphine because the former increases and the latter prolongs the analgesic impact of the latter.

Published: July 2024

Developing and implementing age dependent mortality rates in functional forms have presented critical modelling problems for life insurance and annuity firms thereby creating serious research gaps. A recurring problem with the existing life tables is that their underlying generating functions are not capable of showing any evidence that mortality at 10 declines. This observed irregularity in the age pattern of mortality is the prime motivation in the search for analytical functions which fully capture the observed variations of mortality with age. To fill the gaps identified, the study aims to develop specific life table function under the Generalised Makeham’s framework. The objectives of this study are to (i) compute the mortality rate intensities  (ii) compute the curve of deaths densities   (iii) compute the probability of deaths and then compare the common domain of definition of these measures. From the method of successive differencing employed to model, the male ageing parameter value fall within the globally accepted interval  for the. This method is superior to the method of maximum likelihood estimation which mostly violates the permissible interval of validity. Computational evidence from our analysis proves that under the Generalised Makeham’s law, the mortality rate intensity declines at .
Design of Intelligent Street Lamp System Driven by New Energy Sources
Authors: Sun Zeyu
Published: July 2024

The streets, large and small, are full of street lights, which light up the way home when night falls. But tens of thousands of street lamps consume a lot of energy. The non-renewable energy on the earth is limited, so in order to protect our earth and enable the sustainable development of the earth, this paper designs and develops an intelligent street lamp system driven by new energy sources. Different from the traditional single power supply mode, the street lamp mentioned in this paper uses solar energy, wind energy and ceramic piezoelectric machinery to provide electricity to the street lamp. Solar power is generated when the sun is full, and wind power is generated when there is no sun. The mechanical energy of a car passing through piezoelectric ceramics can also be used to generate electricity in special weather conditions when there is no wind or sunshine. A variety of power generation methods have solved the malpractice of new energy source street lamps relying on weather conditions. And the system can display the power of the storage battery in real time, and light it automatically when night falls. It is an efficient multi-source drive intelligent new energy street lamp.

Never Overlook Security Awareness on Deployment
Authors: Sadewa Rizki , Lubis Muharman , Nuryatno Edi Triono
Published: July 2024

Since preliminary evidence supports the association between security culture and information security awareness (ISA), more research is needed to determine how it interacts with organizational culture. Beyond variations in respondent nation or gender, the study's findings also demonstrate an association between stronger cyber expertise and level of cyber awareness. Additionally, awareness is linked to defense mechanisms but not the information they were willing to divulge.  People play an even more important role in the collaboration between those teams and the security team when security is incorporated into DevOps practices. Furthermore, security is crucial when creating essential systems since it allows us to control objectives, risks, and evidence. Labor only starts after implementing security into the DevOps toolchain. To establish a security culture, we are additionally required to start with behavioral alterations. One of the largest Sharia banks in Indonesia anticipated cyberattacks in 2023, demonstrating to us how crucial security is in the modern world. Although no one could claim that using one of the security solutions would guarantee absolute safety, information security technology is quite dynamic. Future studies could improve on the current findings by taking into account national culture. This study has the aim of proving that we are never satisfied by current security maturity even if you or your company is implementing the best security tools, because the vulnerability can come from that deployment and wherever the environment itself.

With the purpose of awakening interest in knowledge of the human brain and its clinical applications, interactive software has been developed that presents three-dimensional images. This software is designed with three options: information blog, explore the brain in 3D and test your knowledge to allow Clinical Psychology students to meaningfully explore brain structures, a fundamental component within the field of Neuropsychology, taught in the corresponding subject. Nowadays, technology has expanded in all sectors, including education. That is why this tool has been created, which makes it easier to identify the different parts of the brain and its adjacent organs. In this way, the theoretical concepts taught in class are strengthened, providing a more dynamic and visually enriching educational experience. The methodological approach used is descriptive, since it seeks to ensure that students are able to characterize the teaching process through the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT).

Socially organized human beings give up freedom to a small group of people in exchange for security and well-being. The power that this elite exercises often transcends the geographical limits of the habitat of its community, an expansionism that has been motivated not only by the struggle for survival, but also by excessive ambition. Throughout the world, history has recorded the expansionism of the power of the dominant elites, which has constituted empires that often covered vast geographical territories and dominion over millions of people. Serving for this purpose, murderous weapons, and religion itself. The study analyzes generically in this legal research, from a legal axiological way, the historical weight of the international treaties signed by the Vatican (Holy See), in Latin America, and specifically, with the Republic of Ecuador, to which light of the 2008 Constitution, in the construction and establishment of global power, and how Global Constitutionalism can be its counterweight. The research method is legal axiological and legal historical. The approach is mixed, contextualizing the dynamism of the global, legal-political power that the “Holy See” has exercised; and from a legal sociological analysis, I investigate the necessary counterweight to the global power that religion exercises, proposing Global Constitutionalism.
Desarrollo de habilidades cognitivas y sociales en jóvenes con Síndrome de Down para la incorporación laboral
Authors: Martín-Pinto Oscar José
Published: July 2024

The present doctoral research work will consist of a conceptual analysis of what are the socio-labor skills and how they are learned in a standardized context in the educational environment. From the perspective of the paradigm of inclusivity, it is necessary to carry out a conceptual review from different fields such as education from the regulatory framework, the labor framework, and, finally, from the perspective of the transition to adult life. The objective of this research work is to determine which are the socio-labor skills that adolescents with Down Syndrome need for a correct process even in the labor field in Ecuador. This will allow the initiation of a planned path in the process of transition to adult life to achieve independence within the family nucleus and, of course, to encourage public programs that generate spaces for training and transition to adult life. To achieve this, it is necessary to carry out a bibliographic review of public policies of labor inclusiveness, inclusive education proposals for the labor environment, and the principles that support the paradigm of inclusiveness. To achieve the above, it is necessary to conduct a literature review on public policies of labor inclusiveness, inclusive education proposals for the workplace, and the principles underlying the paradigm of inclusiveness. For this, the qualitative methodology will be used, to first conduct a literature review of the international panorama on the socio-labor situation and the transition to adult life, to compare it with the national situation, and with this, to design a set of socio-labor skills that allow socio-labor inclusion and, therefore, transition to adult life for adolescents with Down syndrome.

The study evaluated the accounting practices of the International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) and their impact on the transparency of accountability in public institutions in Ecuador. A mixed approach integrating qualitative and quantitative elements was employed. Eighty-two public institutions were surveyed and the data were analyzed using descriptive statistical techniques. The results showed that, although most of the institutions have clear and documented accounting policies, a high percentage do not adequately comply with them. Areas for improvement were identified in the execution of accounting policies, the disclosure of financial and non-financial information, the recognition of income at the time of accrual and the adoption of IPSAS. In conclusion, the need to improve the clarity of accounting policies and the quality of external auditing to strengthen transparency and accountability in Ecuador's public institutions was highlighted.

The Role of Self-Efficacy in Reducing Unemployment: A Field Study on Women in Indonesia
Authors: Sukabdi Zora
Published: July 2024

Women still face significant challenges in many societies in achieving equal opportunities in employment. Despite efforts, substantial disparities persist between males and females in unemployment rates. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the relationship between self-efficacy and unemployment among women in Indonesia, specifically in Jakarta and Surabaya, through survey data analysis. The sample included 500 women from diverse age, educational, and professional backgrounds. The results indicate a moderate level of unemployment among Indonesian women, with variations in post-graduation experiences. Additionally, the study reveals that a higher level of self-efficacy among women, affects their abilities in effective interaction and emotional management in the workplace. Furthermore, the findings demonstrate a statistically significant positive correlation (α = 0.05) between unemployment and self-efficacy levels. The study underscores the importance of governmental policy support and institutional collaboration to enhance women's employment opportunities and their active participation in the economy, thereby contributing to sustainable development and comprehensive societal progress.

Family violence is a traumatic social phenomenon where family members, including women, children and the elderly, are subjected to multiple forms of violence within their intimate environment, which include physical, psychological and sexual assaults, as well as neglect and psychological abuse, which can result in serious psychological and physical effects. This study aimed to understand the impact of spousal violence on children, where the descriptive approach was used by conducting a sociological survey on a sample of 90 individuals. The results of the study showed that violence between parents consists of yelling at Children and may reach physical abuse, which results in children feeling afraid and the appearance of psychological problems. The results also showed that there were no significant differences in the negative effects of parental violence on children, which is due to the sex factor and the level of morale in the study sample (coefficient equal to 0.361).
E. Evans-Pritchard, Colonialist, Imperialist, Spy? A Defence
Authors: Evans-Pritchard John
Published: July 2024

The reputation of the academic field of Anthropology has for some people been tarnished ever since Franz Boas’ letter to The Nation in 1919 in which he claimed that four anthropologists had acted as spies for the United States Government, using their field research as a camouflage for what they were really doing. From this specific accusation there has somehow developed an argument that all anthropologists carrying out fieldwork might actually be spies. This general misconception was not helped by the fact that in some cases that was essentially what they were doing, operating under the cover of their fieldwork as government agents. Unfortunately, many genuine researchers carrying out academic study have been tarred with the same brush. This article deals with one such anthropologist who researched during colonial rule and who, it is argued here, was most certainly not a spy. This should also be seen as a defence for the many others whose intentions were simply to carry out academic anthropological fieldwork.
Pertinencia de la Educación Técnica y Tecnológica en el Ecuador
Authors: Herrera Navas Cristopher David
Published: July 2024

La educación técnica y tecnológica ha sido considerada comúnmente en Ecuador como un proceso de formación breve, carente de calidad, rigor o una alternativa para las personas con un nivel socio-económico bajo, mientras que, en países como Alemania o Suiza, posee todo un prestigio social y valoración superior, inclusive se conoce que un técnico puede llegar a tener un sueldo superior al gerente. En pocas palabras, la formación técnica y tecnológica se encuentra subvalorada socialmente, sin embargo, de manera contradictoria, desde el 2009 y de manera formal en el 2013 se han aunado esfuerzos por la construcción de un sistema económico social, solidario y sostenible denominado “cambio de la matriz productiva”, teniendo como propósito la evolución de la productividad, pasando del esquema de exportador de materia prima a ser los fabricantes del producto final. Como respuesta a dicha transformación se le brinda realce a la educación técnica y tecnológica, de tal manera en que, en el 2011 se empieza con el proceso de separación de las instituciones superior de educación técnica de la educación secundaria, en 2013 se realiza un proyecto de la reconversión para repotenciar la formación de los tecnólogos y en el 2018 se reconoce a las instituciones técnicas y tecnológicas como instituciones de educación de tercer nivel, pero ¿Qué ha hecho para garantizar su pertinencia? El presente ensayo tiene como propósito presentar de forma general las medidas tomadas para garantizar la pertinencia de la educación técnica y tecnológica desde el 2012 como medida del Consejo de Evaluación, Acreditación y Aseguramiento de la Calidad de Educación Superior (CEAACES) para asegurar la calidad educativa.
