Corpus–Based Research into Derivational Morphology: A Comparative Study of Japanese and English Verbalization
Authors:   Kinjo Gakuin University, Morita Junya
Published: November 2024

As part of elucidating the syntax-morphology interaction, this study investigates where and how complex verbs are formed in Japanese and English. Focusing on the Japanese verbforming suffix -ka-suru (e.g. toshi-o gendaika-suru ‘modernize city’), relevant verbs are extracted from a large-scale corpus and they receive an in-depth analysis from semantic, morphosyntactic, and functional viewpoints. The properties of -ka-suru and those of its English counterpart are then compared and contrasted. The result reveals three main points: (i) -ka-suru verbs are constantly created in syntactic settings to fulfill the functions of brevity and conceptualization, (ii) while denominal -ize derivatives have several submeanings such as ‘result,’ ‘ornative,’ and ‘agentive,’ -ka-suru equivalents retain the meaning ‘result,’ and (iii) -ka-suru can be combined with compound nouns, but -ize cannot. We will demonstrate that the above features originate in the underlying syntactic structure related to each suffix and their difference, thus supporting the thesis of syntactic word formation.
Estimating Commonsense Knowledge from a Linguistic Analysis on Information Distribution
Authors:   University of Catania, Italy, Mennella Sabrina , Di Maro Maria ,   URBAN/ECO Research Center, Italy, Di Bratto Martina ,   University of Naples ”Federico II”, Italy
Published: November 2024

Commonsense Knowledge (CSK) is defined as a complex and multifaceted structure, encompassing a wide range of knowledge and reasoning generally acquired through everyday experiences. As CSK is often implicit in communication, it poses a challenge for AI systems to simulate human-like interaction. This work aims to deepen the CSK information structure from a linguistic perspective, starting from its organisation in conversations. To achieve this goal, we developed a three-level analysis model to extract more insights about this knowledge, focusing our attention on the second level. In particular, we aimed to extract the distribution of explicit actions and their execution order in the communicative flow. We built an annotation scheme based on FrameNet and applied it to a dialogical corpus on the culinary domain. Preliminary results indicate that certain frames occur earlier in the dialogues, while others occur towards the process’s end. These findings contribute to the systematic nature of actions by establishing clear patterns and relationships between frames.

Hate Speech on Social Media in the Axis of Islamophobia: Example of TikTok
Authors: Böyük Mustafa
Published: December 2024

This study focuses on the detection and analysis of Islamophobic hate speech on the TikTok platform. Social media platforms have a great impact in terms of reaching masses and sharing information. However, these platforms can also pave the way for the spread of negative content such as hate speech and discrimination. TikTok draws attention with its short video format, which is especially popular among young people. For this reason, it offers an important area of investigation in terms of the spread of hate speech and discrimination content. In this study, posts containing Islamophobic hate speech on TikTok were identified through the keywords ‘Islam’, ‘Muslim’, ‘Terrorist’, ‘Jihad’, ‘Sharia’, ‘Radical Islam’ and ‘Islamist’. These keywords were chosen from the terms that commonly define Islamophobic discourse in the literature. The 10 TikTok posts selected using simple random sampling technique were analysed by critical discourse analysis method. Critical discourse analysis is a method that analyses how texts and speeches gain meaning in the social context and how these meanings reflect social power relations. In the study, linguistic and visual analyses of Islamophobic content on TikTok were conducted. The research was conducted in the first six months of 2024. The data collection process carried out during this period was obtained as a result of the scans carried out on TikTok using the keywords mentioned above. The results of the study show that Islamophobic hate speech is spread linguistically and discursively through posts on TikTok. Islamophobic content reinforces negative stereotypes against Muslims and damages social cohesion. Such content leads to marginalisation, exclusion and violence against Muslims. Islamophobia and hate speech increase social polarisation and create distrust and hostility in society.

Formulation and comparison of mathematical models examination of root-finding methods : A review
Authors: Gulzar Yonis , Nidhi Nidhi , Kaur Narinder , Anshika Anshika
Published: November 2024

This article provides a review that examines the mathematical principles that underlie the three numerical approaches that are utilized the most frequently for the purpose of solving nonlinear equations. For the purpose of demonstrating the numerical estimation of the non-linear equation f(x)=x^3-2x-5, the methods of Bisection, Newton-Raphson, and Secant are utilized. Using the Python programming language, the research investigates and analyzes a number of different tactics based on their capacity to get closer to the actual root of the function with each iteration (convergence). The Newton-Raphson and Secant methods produce more precision and faster convergence with a limited number of iterations, whereas the Bisection approach takes a substantially higher number of iterations to achieve convergence. Both of these methods achieve convergence more quickly and with greater accuracy. In order to arrive at an accurate determination of the root value of 2.09455, the Bisection strategy managed to achieve convergence at the thirteenth iteration, whilst the Newton-Raphson and Secant approaches were able to achieve convergence at the seventh and fourth iterations, respectively. As a result of analyzing three different approaches, it was determined that the Secant method is the most efficient one. On the other hand, the Newton Raphson method converges more quickly but has a more challenging extraction process.

Published: December 2024

Introduction. Adult nocturnal enuresis remains a poorly documented entity,
particularly in our country. The objective of this work is to study the epidemiological
characteristics, the therapeutic modalities, as well as the factors that can influence the
therapeutic response. Materials and Methods. Retrospective study over a period of
four years, from February 2018 to February 2022. The inclusion criteria were a primary
mono symptomatic enuresis, with an age between 16 and 40 years. A maximum of
one urination per month was considered as a criterion of favorable response or durable
cure. Results. there were 43 patients with a mean age of 21.6 years, and 72.1% were
men. A family history of enuresis was found in 35.9%. It was severe enuresis in 63.9%
of cases, without correlation with age. Desmopressin was prescribed alone or in
combination in 93% of cases. If 97.3% responded favorably to treatment, the
sustainable cure rate was 62%. There was more relapse in the group of combination
therapy (83.3%) compared to the group of desmopressin only (31%). The differences
were statistically significant (P = 0.02). Desmopressin withdrawal failure was greater
in females compared to males, and more marked in subjects with familial history of NE
compared to subjects without familial history; without statistical significances.
Conclusion. Despite the limitations of this study, several factors interfering in the
therapeutic response have been identified. With significant socio-psychological
consequences, we believe that it is essential to carry out a large-scale study of a
national nature.

Published: December 2024

Social Studies Education (IPS) plays an important role in shaping students' character, particularly in developing social awareness. IPS learning not only teaches social knowledge but also actively engages students to understand and respond to existing social issues. One of the major challenges in IPS education is connecting theory with the reality of students' lives, which is often perceived as too abstract. Therefore, an interactive learning approach is essential to increase student engagement, develop critical thinking skills, and build empathy. Learning that emphasizes interactivity, such as group discussions, role-playing, and the use of digital media, can help students apply knowledge in everyday life and strengthen their social awareness. Through literature review, this study aims to explore interactive methods in IPS learning that can enhance students' social awareness. The results show that interaction-based learning can improve student participation, social skills, and understanding of existing social issues, which in turn supports the development of a more socially conscious student character.

Published: December 2024

The study aims to describe and analyze the use of product video content on the TikTok platform as a digital promotional medium to increase sales volume for MSMEs in Surabaya. This research employs a mixed methods approach with a sequential exploratory design, which combines qualitative and quantitative methods in sequence. Emphasis is placed more on the qualitative method, which is then complemented by the quantitative method. The sample for this study consists of MSMEs that have used video content on the TikTok platform to market their products within the Surabaya area. The sampling technique used is simple random sampling. The results of the study indicate that MSMEs use video content on the TikTok platform for promotion, product branding, market expansion, and reaching more customers. MSMEs create engaging or trending video content, highlighting product uniqueness, challenges, sharing, tutorials, and product reviews, as well as videos on the production process. The content often includes humorous aspects of everyday life. Captions are designed to attract attention, with complete product narratives, price information, and a sense of curiosity. MSMEs actors take advantage of TikTok's features: TikTok Live, TikTok Shop, content creator features, location tagging, video editing features, TikTok Story, filters, and visual and sound effects. They also collaborate with influencers on TikTok to promote their products. The findings show that the use of video content on the TikTok platform as a digital promotional medium has a significant positive impact on MSME sales. This implies that the better the use of video content on TikTok for digital promotion, the higher the sales for MSMEs.

The research method used is a qualitative method using data collection techniques through observation, interviews and documentation regarding the handling of reefer containers when problems occur. Based on the results of observations made by the author regarding the various obstacles that occur in reefer containers during sea practice, there are two causes, namely component damage because it has passed the time limit for use and an electrical short circuit in one of its components which causes the reefer container to not be able to work optimally. This happened because there was no thorough checking and lack of maintenance.

Palliative care is a vital component of primary healthcare systems, especially in Asia, where the ageing population is expected to increase significantly in the coming years. Integrating palliative care into primary healthcare systems is a crucial strategy for achieving universal access to palliative care. It is necessary to take concurrent actions to achieve this integration, including integrating palliative care into public health policies, educating primary healthcare workers, establishing appropriate service structures and ensuring the availability of controlled medications. Healthcare professionals involved with primary care, often led by physicians, play a significant role in driving the implementation of primary palliative care in Asia, as evidenced by their involvement in community- and home-based palliative care in India and primary palliative care for patients with cancer in Indonesia. However, there are challenges associated with implementing these actions in each country. Therefore, it is crucial to examine the ongoing advocacy efforts, milestones, obstacles and strategies that shape this process in the Asian context.

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of utilizing visualization to improve the understanding of the concepts of fraction multiplication and division among sixth-grade students at a private school in Tangerang. The visualization used in this study enables students to directly observe the process of fraction multiplication and division, which is often difficult to understand due to its abstract nature. With the help of visualization, students can better grasp the steps and concepts behind fraction multiplication and division in a more concrete and intuitive way. This research employs an experimental method with a one-sample t-test to compare students' learning outcomes after instruction using visualization to the Minimum Completeness Criteria (KKM) set at 70. The results show a significant improvement in the understanding of the concepts of fraction multiplication and division, exceeding the KKM standard. These findings suggest that visualization is effective in helping students overcome difficulties in understanding the concepts of fraction multiplication and division, making it a valuable alternative medium for mathematics instruction in elementary schools.

A Síndrome da Alienação Parental (SAP) é um fenômeno psicológico e jurídico caracterizado por comportamentos de um dos genitores que buscam afastar o outro genitor do convívio com filho, prejudicando o relacionamento parental. Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar a eficácia da Lei nº 12.318/2010, que regulamenta a alienação parental no Brasil, e identificar os principais desafios enfrentados pelos profissionais do direito na sua aplicação. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida por meio de uma revisão bibliográfica, com foco nos impactos psicológicos da alienação parental para as crianças e nos mecanismos jurídicos de combate a esse comportamento. O estudo conclui que, embora a legislação vigente represente um avanço, ainda há limitações práticas que comprometem sua efetividade, sugerindo a adoção de novas estratégias, como a mediação e intervenções psicológicas em disputas de guarda.
