Occupational Balance and Meaning Mediate Higher Education Students’ Mental Health During War: A Structural Equation Modeling Analysis
Authors: Lipskaya-Velikovsky Lena , Grinvald Haya , Gilboa Yafit , Nahum Mor
Published: November 2024

Importance: Exposure to trauma and extensive changes in daily life circumstances and occupations as a result of an ongoing armed conflict can significantly affect mental health.

Objective: To examine factors related to the mental health status of Israeli students during the Swords of Iron war.

Design: A cross-sectional study.

Setting: Online survey.

Participants: Students in higher education institutions across Israel (N = 863).

Outcomes and Measures: Self-report validated questionnaires were used to assess students’ mental health status, resilience, satisfaction with life, executive functions, environmental factors, and occupations.

Results: Moderate levels of depression (Mdn = 18, interquartile range [IQR] = 10–28), anxiety (Mdn = 10, IQR = 4–20), and stress (Mdn = 24, IQR = 14–34) were found for 50% of participants, along with extensive changes in daily life occupations, occupational balance, and meaning. Using structured equation modeling, χ2(15) = 15.969, p = .384, the authors found that satisfaction with life, psychological resilience, religious status, executive functions, occupational balance, and variability in occupational change were directly associated with mental health status, whereas occupational balance and occupational change mediated these connections.

Conclusions and Relevance: The modifiable factors related to reduced mental health after exposure to traumatic threat included change in occupational patterns, occupational balance, and sense of belonging, which may all serve as goals for occupation-based interventions and contribute to better coping mechanisms with traumatic events. This study used a cross-sectional design and an online survey with self-reported data, which may limit the generalizability of the findings.

Plain-Language Summary: Higher education students in Israel were exposed to traumatic events and changes in daily life because of war. This study aimed to understand their mental health, resilience, executive functions, environments, and changes in their occupational patterns and the complex interplay between these factors. An online survey showed a notable decline in the students’ mental health status, with around 50% experiencing at least moderate levels of depression, anxiety, and stress. Changes in occupations, occupational meaning, and balance were also common. The study found that satisfaction with life, mental resilience, occupational balance, religious status, executive functions, and variability in occupational change all contributed directly to the students’ mental health status. The findings suggest that modifiable factors such as occupational balance and belongingness could be addressed through interventions to enhance mental health and coping mechanisms of students facing trauma and stressful life events.

Authors: Putri Brigita Sherlyta Erlansa , Nugrahanta Gregorius Ari Nugrahanta
Published: November 2024

Broadminded character is understood by one's ability to know oneself, make decisions, analyze patterns, be broadminded, contribute positively, empathize, know one's limits, capture the essence of the problem, have self-awareness, become a reference for opinions, and have integrity. Bullying often occurs in the world of education, which reflects a lack of wisdom in behaviour. The rise of bullying cases requires in-depth education to form a broadminded character. This study aims to develop a textbook on home civilization based on PjBL to foster broadminded character. This study used the ADDIE-type Research & Development (R&D) method. Ten certified elementary school teachers were involved in conducting a needs analysis, five teachers and five experts as expert judgment validators and eight children aged 10-12 years were involved in a limited trial of the book. The results showed that 1) the book on PjBL-based home civilization to foster broadminded character was developed with ADDIE stages; 2) the quality of the textbook was classified as "very good" so that it did not require revision (3.89 on a scale of 1-4); 3) the application of this textbook had a significant effect on broadminded character (p < 0.05) with a category effect (r = 0.992) or equivalent to 98% which was classified as a "large" effect category. The level of effectiveness is high (89.61%).
Analysing the impact of age, wealth, mother's education, area of residence, and gender on child weight: a regression approach
Authors: Chumba Grace , Munyao Perpetual Petronillah Mumbua
Published: November 2024

Abstract
The purpose of this article is to analyse the impact of age, wealth, mother's education, area of residence, and gender all together on child weight using multiple linear regression model. Previous studies have examined the effects of these factors on child weight singly or in pairs but not all together. The various factors affecting child weight that contribute to the broader issues of malnutrition and obesity need to be examined. This study addresses this issue with the aim of identifying the most significant predictors of healthy child weight. The data were collected from a secondary source for a sample size of 760 children aged 0-59 months. The data were analysed using multiple linear regression with SPSS software. The correlation coefficient (0.861) between the observed and predicted values of the dependent variable (child weight) suggests a strong positive correlation. 74.2 per cent of the variability in child weight is explained by the predictors in this model, indicating a good fit. The model also explains 74per cent of the variance, suggesting a robust fit. Age, gender, wealth, and mother's education are significant predictors of child weight, whilst area of residence is not statistically significant, though location-specific strategies may still be beneficial for child health outcomes. Based on the findings of this study, public health programs should prioritise age-appropriate nutrition, gender-sensitive interventions, and enhanced maternal education to improve child weight outcomes.

Retirement is the termination of employees carried out by companies or organizations on employees who have reached an age that is considered no longer productive or which is the standard age limit in the company based on statutory regulations. The problem that often occurs is the unpreparedness of employees to accept the reality of retirement and increased anxiety in employees. In this study with a qualitative method with five respondents who have been interviewed and it is known that 60% of respondents have anxiety in facing retirement which is divided into a light scale of 40% and 20% heavy scale. As well as employees who have prepared for retirement even though only partially or have tried to reach 80%. Based on the results of the retirement program that has been run by the Company, namely that the retirement preparation program is very important for employees who will enter retirement and has a positive and significant influence on retirement readiness and the retirement preparation program will have an influence on the level of employee anxiety, the higher the pre-retirement training and provision, the lower the level of anxiety. The level of employee anxiety greatly affects the level of retirement readiness, the lower the level of anxiety in accepting retirement, the higher the level of employee retirement readiness
Integridade Visual nos Monumentos Vivos
Authors: Marques da Silva Joelmir
Published: November 2024

A vegetação é a essência do jardim histórico e, por isso, as ações de conservação precisam garantir a integridade e a autenticidade considerando o ciclo de vida do vegetal e, consequentemente, as substituições periódicas de espécies. Embora, para a obra de arte em geral a integridade esteja diretamente associada à autenticidade da matéria, no jardim histórico esta relação não acontece da mesma maneira pela sua condição de obra de arte efêmera - perecível e renovável. A autenticidade de uma obra de arte está direcionada à condição de genuíno como oposto ao falso ou copiado, já a integridade está atrelada ao significado de continuidade e honestidade em oposição a fragmentado e destruído. O conceito de integridade para jardim histórico ainda está em fase embrionária, por isso, adotou-se a noção de integridade visual do bem cultural, proposta por Jukka Jokilehto, atrelando-a ao componente vegetal sob a lente dos aspectos estéticos representados em um determinado lugar. Defende-se a tese de que a integridade visual do jardim histórico independe da autenticidade das espécies vegetais [matéria] desde que as novas espécies possuam atributos plásticos compatíveis aos do projeto original. Isto pode incluir a ação do restauro em que segundo Cesare Brandi, o que se restaura é a imagem e não a matéria. Objetivou-se, assim, discutir o conceito de integridade visual no jardim histórico, bem como elaborar uma metodologia de verificação então direcionada com a construção da fitocronologia e do palimpsesto vegetal e testando-a em dois jardins históricos do paisagista moderno Roberto Burle Marx e projetadas em 1935: a Praça Euclides da Cunha e a Praça de Casa Forte, e que são reconhecidos como patrimônio cultural nacional. Com isso, se alcançou a compreensão de que a integridade visual de um jardim histórico é aquela que permite o especialista perceber e sentir uma emoção estética proporcionada pela ideia de quem o concebeu - o que garante a autenticidade da criação - porém, independe da autenticidade da matéria, do vegetal em si. Com a verificação da integridade visual em tais praças, percebeu-se a presença da evocação artística que não se encontra em outros tipos de jardins. São jardins distintos, com personalidade, cheios de significados e que possibilitam integrar o ser humano em sua história de uma maneira simples, natural e eficaz ao mesmo tempo.

cidade como um espaço pautado pelo gênero:
Authors: Guerra Diógenes Marina , Albernaz Maria Paula
Published: November 2024

A trajetória feminina é marcada por relações de poder e por questões relacionadas à exclusão, submissão, violência e desigualdade. Debates sobre gênero são essenciais para o campo da produção do espaço urbano e têm ganhado – finalmente – atenção maior nos últimos anos, reflexo do fortalecimento do movimento feminista pelo mundo. As cidades refletem essas relações de poder desiguais da sociedade e é pela perspectiva de gênero que este trabalho visa contribuir com a discussão em relação à produção urbana e ao direito à cidade. É essencial que esse direito incorpore questões de gênero, já que planejar e produzir a cidade não são ações neutras. É baseando-se em experiências empíricas de observação da autora e de um grupo de arquitetas e em uma revisão bibliográfica que aborda a invisibilização de necessidades, planejamentos, produções acadêmicas e opiniões de mulheres sobre o ambiente urbano que esse artigo visa colaborar com esse debate, pensando na cidade como um espaço moldado por relações de poder e de gênero.

The Colors of Proxy Noise
Authors: McPartland Mara Y. , Münch Thomas , Dolman Andrew M. , Hébert Raphaël , Laepple Thomas
Published: November 2024

Abstract. Uncertainty in paleoclimate time series is inherent to the complex biological and physical processes involved in forming and archiving them in the environment for centuries or longer. The timescale-dependency of this uncertainty is often referred to as "noise" of a particular color based on similarities between the power spectrum of a timeseries and the electromagnetic spectrum of light. For example, "white noise" equally affects all timescales, where "red noise" dominates only on long timescales, similar to longwave red light. In paleoclimate research, the frequency characteristics of proxy noise are often assumed based on first principles rather than estimated directly, which risks either inflating or underestimating error at particular frequencies. Here, we synthesize several studies that use a common method to estimate the spectrum of error in ice core, coral, and tree-ring data. We conceptualize how time-scale dependent noise in proxy time series is created through the archive formation and data processing. Our results suggest that the colors of proxy noise are archive- specific, with white noise dominating in depositional archives such as ice-cores and marine sediment cores, while red noise is likely more common in biological archives such as tree rings and corals. Our aim is to clarify these concepts and provide tools for assigning noise terms in proxy system models, data assimilations, and other experiments.
InSAR sensitivity to active layer ground ice content in Adventdalen, Svalbard

Published: November 2024

Abstract. Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) remote sensing of surface displacement in permafrost environments has the potential to resolve ground ice dynamics and potentially active layer thickness, yet field validation is sparse. Here we present a comparison between in-situ ground ice contents and the seasonal InSAR displacements of the following thawing season at 12 coring sites in Adventdalen, Svalbard. The study is focused on the year 2023, where frozen sediment cores were collected at the end of spring from the active layer and the uppermost permafrost. The sediment cores were analyzed with high resolution for volumetric ground ice and excess ice contents. The active layer thickness was estimated by probing the thaw depth at the end of the thawing season 2023, allowing to estimate the amount of expected subsidence from seasonal ground ice melt. The InSAR vertical displacements for the thawing season were derived from Small Baseline Subset (SBAS) processing of Sentinel-1 imagery. The expected subsidence from ground ice melt within the measured active layer thickness aligned well with the seasonal InSAR maximum vertical displacement. Monte Carlo simulations were performed to include uncertainties in the expected and measured InSAR subsidence, leading to a mean coefficient of determination of 0.68 and a mean absolute error of 15 mm for the correlation between InSAR subsidence and expected subsidence from in-situ ground ice melt. Excess ice is highly variable and is the main source of the expected subsidence during this thawing season, which was exceptionally warm. The expected subsidence and active layer thickness show only a weak relationship due to the observed complex ice content distribution in the active layer and uppermost permafrost. Our results show the significant potential of InSAR for mapping ground ice variability; however, they also suggest that estimating active layer thickness using InSAR requires careful consideration of the complex occurrence of both pore and excess ice in the active layer and uppermost permafrost.
Landscape reconstructions for Europe during the late Last Glacial (60–20 ka BP): A pollen-based REVEALS approach
Authors: Kern Oliver A. , Maier Andreas , Vercauteren Nikki
Published: November 2024

Abstract. Vegetation change during the Last Glacial period in Europe plays a crucial role in better understanding the ecosystem dynamics response to abrupt climate change. Yet, quantitative reconstructions of land-cover primarily focus on the Holocene period and aim to disentangle the impact of anthropogenic and climatic stress on the vegetation. Here, we present temporally continuous land-cover reconstructions from Europe for the latter half of the Last Glacial period (60–20 ka BP) using the “Regional Estimates of Vegetation Abundance from Large Sites” (REVEALS) model. The pollen-based REVEALS model uniquely factors in plant-specific parameters, such as relative pollen productivity (RPP) and pollen fall speed to model pollen dispersal and thus provides more accurate representation of past vegetation cover than fossil pollen data. We compiled a total of 61 datasets from Europe and its bordering regions to model land-cover estimates across 60 time steps in 1000 year increments. By grouping the 38 analysed taxa into 5 land-cover types (LCTs), we simplify the interpretation of our results and demonstrate this using three crucial periods during the Last Glacial: Greenland Interstadial 14 (GI-14), Greenland Stadial 9 (GS-9), and the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). These periods provide insight into stadial-interstadial vegetation variability as well as extreme glacial conditions, which seem to play a fundamental role in the demographic developments of Palaeolithic hunter-gatherers. Additionally, we compare the REVEALS land-cover estimates to raw pollen data and also provide REVEALS standard errors and discuss the reliability of our results as well as potential avenues to further improve the reliability of REVEALS estimates. To facilitate the use and interpretation of our data for a wide scientific audience, we developed the browser-based application PALVEG (https://oakern.shinyapps.io/PALVEG/), which requires no prior programming experience and dynamically generates maps based on user input.
Evaluating snow depth retrievals from Sentinel-1 volume scattering over NASA SnowEx sites

Published: November 2024

Abstract. Snow depth retrievals from spaceborne C-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) backscatter have the potential to fill an important gap in the remote monitoring of seasonal snow. Sentinel-1 (S1) SAR data have been used previously in an empirical algorithm to generate snow depth products with near-global coverage, subweekly temporal resolution and spatial resolutions on the order of hundreds of meters to 1 km. However, there has been no published independent validation of this algorithm. In this work we develop the first open-source software package that implements this Sentinel-1 snow depth retrieval algorithm as described in the original papers and evaluate the snow depth retrievals against nine high-resolution lidar snow depth acquisitions collected during the winters of 2019–2020 and 2020–2021 at six study sites across the western United States as part of the NASA SnowEx mission. Across all sites, we find agreement between the Sentinel-1 snow depth retrievals and the lidar snow depth measurements to be considerably lower than requirements placed for remotely sensed observations of snow depth, with a mean root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.92 m and a mean Pearson correlation coefficient r of 0.46. Algorithm performance improves slightly in deeper snowpacks and at higher elevations. We further investigate the underlying Sentinel-1 data for a snow signal through an exploratory analysis of the cross- to co-backscatter ratio (σVH/σVV; i.e., cross ratio) relative to lidar snow depths. We find the cross ratio increases through the time series for snow depths over ∼ 1.5 m but that the cross ratio decreases for snow depths less than ∼ 1.5 m. We attribute poor algorithm performance to (a) the variable amount of apparent snow depth signal in the S1 cross ratio and (b) an algorithm structure that does not adequately convert S1 backscatter signal to snow depth. Our findings provide an open-source framework for future investigations, along with insight into the applicability of C-band SAR for snow depth retrievals and directions for future C-band snow depth retrieval algorithm development. C-band SAR has the potential to address gaps in radar monitoring of deep snowpacks; however, more research into retrieval algorithms is necessary to better understand the physical mechanisms and uncertainties of C-band volume-scattering-based retrievals.

Final MBBS part I students were more empathic (103.27±13.04) compared to second phase students and interns. Female students and the students who made the independent decision to pursue MBBS had significantly higher empathy scores than the others. The empathy score was not significantly associated with the choice of speciality. Conclusion: The mean empathy score was 100.20 (maximum score – 140) among the medical students in South India. The age, gender and the phase of the students were significantly associated with empathy. There was no relation between the empathy scores and choice of speciality.
Unterschichten und soziale Randgruppen. Menschen auf der Schattenseite des Lebens

Lower Classes and Social Fringe Groups. Disadvantaged Populations.
Large parts of the population of Lower Austria in the 18th century can be counted among the lower classes, even among the social fringe groups. Many people, such as servants or day laborers, lived at the subsistence level and had no economic leeway; in case of unforeseen emergencies, they threatened to slip into poverty. Others had already been born as outsiders and were never given the opportunity for social advancement, but remained stigmatized and marginalized. Only those people who met certain very narrow criteria were able to benefit from the poor care provided by the authorities, which was, moreover, inadequate. The state of the early modern ages treated everyone else with great ruthlessness, a practice that continued under enlightened absolutism. Marginalization still persisted, and new concepts for greater integration and increased social security were conceived but failed in (bureaucratic) everyday life. For a person in the shadows of society, little had changed in the 18th century.

Public Sphere and Printed Media. Sensationalism, Passion for Newspapers, and Communication of Knowledge in the Shadow of Vienna.
The Lower Austrian hinterland was already well integrated into the early modern media system, regularly appearing as a reporting location in newspapers published in the printing centres of the Holy Roman Empire or in Vienna. Throughout the 18th century, newspapers such as the Wien(n)erische Diarium and the Posttägliche Mercurius functioned as important sources of information and channels of communication through which the public sphere could learn about current political and socially relevant processes, developments, and events. This public sphere, however, comprised not only the urban bourgeoisie and the aristocracy, but also the contemporary “common man”. Media content and news reached the Lower Austrian countryside especially in the form of broadsheets and pamphlets, which were produced in the capital but also in the smaller, regional print towns.

Artworks as agential forces: a new materialist discourse on the aesthetics
Authors: Park Sungjin
Published: November 2024

This research explores artworks as agential forces through New Materialism, challenging traditional anthropocentric perspectives by recognizing materials' active roles in artmaking. Grounded in theories by Merleau-Ponty, Karen Barad, and Jane Bennett, it redefines materiality as co-constitutive of art, emphasizing the interconnected agency between artist and material. Utilizing a diffractive methodology inspired by Barad, the study navigates material-discursive entanglements, highlighting how artworks enact dynamic interplays of forces. This approach not only enriches the creative process but also foregrounds art's potential to engage with socio-cultural and ecological dimensions, advocating for a postanthropocentric creative paradigm. The findings advocate for recognizing materials’ agential capacities within art practices, suggesting a shift towards inclusive narratives that underscore the ethical implications of our material engagements. By reimagining art's agency, this study contributes to the discourse on New Materialism, proposing an aesthetics that embraces the interconnectedness of human and non-human actors, thereby offering new insights into the transformative potentials of art in contemporary challenges.

The article deals with developing a hardware and software complex for identifying
rock displacement in open pits. The complex allows for continuous measurement of several
parameters and timely notification of personnel of mining enterprises engaged in underground
and surface development. The software included in the complex is easy to use and allows
changing the information interface. The complex collects, processes and analyzes data from
fiber-optic sensors that monitor the geotechnical state of the edge massif. It is connected to
fiber-optic sensors via optical conductors, which eliminates the use of the expensive copper
cable. Fiber-optic sensors are intrinsically safe and explosion-proof, and are highly resistant
to electromagnetic interference. The complex with fiber-optic sensors allows monitoring the
geotechnical state of mine workings in open pits. The principle of operation of the complex is
based on comparison of apertures and intensity of light spots using a high-resolution photodetector.
It has been found that diffraction spots and their pixel pattern do not change in the
absence of rock displacement of the edge massif. When a displacement occurs, the light wave
that passes through the fiber-optic sensor changes its properties, which leads to changing the
parameters of the light spot. After processing the data, the complex produces a numerical
value of the displacement.

Для управления процессом охлаждения в конструкции установки предусмотрены системы подачи и распределения воды и отвода парогазовой смеси. Колосниковая поверхность в виде ротора укрыта тепло- и звукоизолирующим кожухом, который соединен с системой удаления парогазовой смеси. Расплав, охлажденный в полости ротора, поступает на лотковый конвейер. Конвейер также укрыт кожухом и соединен с системой удаления парогазовой смеси. Приведены примеры различных режимов охлаждения шлакового расплава в установке роторного типа. Испытан вариант разгрузки охлажденного шлака непосредственно под ротор в специальный короб, оборудованный системой отвода стоков. Достигнуты удовлетворительные результаты по получению щебня и щебеночно-песчаной смеси с требуемыми свойствами непосредственно из шлакового расплава.

The results of testing the technology for processing liquid slags of the precious metal shop in a rotary-type unit are presented. The main feature of the unit is the ability to process metallurgical slag in a liquid state to obtain a product in a wide range of properties and purposes. The technical characteristics of the pilot plant are given. The peculiarities of cooling of high-temperature slag melts on moving metal bodies placed on grates forming a cylindrical surface are reflected. Metal bodies (balls) have the ability to move along the grate surface and at the same time take away the heat of the slag melt. To control the cooling process, the design of the unit provides systems for supplying and distributing water and removing a combined-cycle gas mixture. The grate surface in the form of a rotor is covered with heat and a soundproof casing, which is connected to the PGS removal system. The melt cooled in the rotor cavity enters the trough conveyor. The conveyor is also. It is covered with a casing and connected to the PGS removal system. Examples of different modes of slag melt cooling in a rotary-type unit are given. A variant of discharging cooled slag directly under the rotor into a special box equipped with a sewage drainage system has been tested. Satisfactory results have been achieved in obtaining crushed stone and crushed stone-sand mixture with the required properties directly from the slag melt.

Introduction: The accessory navicular bone (ANB) is a common developmental anomaly that may cause foot pain, morbidity, and even flatfoot deformity in symptomatic individuals. The Kidner procedure is a widely accepted surgical treatment for symptomatic ANB, typically involving removal of the ANB and reattachment of the posterior tibial tendon. This case report presents a successful 1-year follow-up outcome of an implantless Kidner procedure in a patient with type II ANB.
Case Presentation: A 44-year-old female patient presented with a 3-month history of medial-sided left foot pain, aggravated by walking long distances. Physical examination revealed a bony prominence on the inner side of the left foot, with tenderness on palpation. Radiographs demonstrated a type II ANB. The patient underwent an implantless Kidner procedure under general anesthesia, which involved excision of the accessory navicular, osteotomy of the true navicular, and advancement of the tibialis posterior tendon using ethibond sutures. Postoperative follow-ups at 3, 6, and 12 months showed gradual improvement in the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score from 75 to 85 and 90, respectively, with no complications or recurrence of symptoms.
Discussion: The presence of ANB, particularly type II, can result in foot pain and associated complications, requiring surgical intervention if conservative measures fail. The implantless Kidner procedure presented in this case report demonstrates favorable outcomes in symptom resolution and functional improvement. The use of sutures instead of hardware materials for tendon fixation in this modified procedure appears to be safe and effective.
Conclusion: The implantless Kidner procedure is a viable surgical option for the management of symptomatic type II ANB, providing satisfactory results and functional improvement at 1-year follow-up. Further research with larger sample sizes and longer follow-up periods is needed to validate the long-term efficacy of this modified technique.

A study was conducted using twenty-one (21) West African Dwarf (WAD) goats with an average weight of 10.50± 0.36 kg to evaluate the blood profile of WAD goats fed microbial treated Bambara nutshell diets. The goats were allotted seven dietary treatments with three replicated per treatment in a completely randomized design. The Bambara nutshells underwent sterilization for 15 minutes, were inoculated with 25, 50, and 75ml of Pleurotus pulmonaris and Aspergillus niger, incubated for 7 days, air-dried, and then integrated into the diets, diet A (control), diet B, C, D (25ml, 50ml 75ml Pleurotus pulmonaris) and E, F, G (25ml, 50ml, 75ml Aspergillus niger). Blood was collected from each animal via the jugular vein into bottles containing anticoagulant and without anticoagulant for the measurement of hematological and serum biochemical indices respectively. The study lasted for 63 days. Results showed that the proximate compositions were significantly influenced (p>0.05). Results showed that the blood parameters were significantly (p<0.05) influenced by the diet. Does fed diet C had the highest packed cell volume (35.00 %), hemoglobin (11.97 %) and lymphocytes (47.67%). The serum biochemical parameters also indicated that, total protein (20.09g/l) was highest in diet C. The albumin (4.27g/l) was higher in animals fed diet G, while the serum enzymes alanine aminotransferase (5.40 iu/l) and aspartate aminotransferase (22.83 iu/l) were least in animals fed diet F and G respectively. Conclusively, microbial treatment of Bambara nutshell does not have adverse effects on the goat's health status.
