Published: December 2020

This study was designed to examine the impact of online gaming addiction on mental health among International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) students. The objectives of this study are to determine: (a) the exposure to online gaming, (b) the levels of online gaming addiction and mental health, and (c) the relationship between online gaming addiction and mental health, particularly depression, anxiety, and loneliness. This study employed a quantitative research design with the network sampling procedure applied as the sampling technique for data selection and an online survey questionnaire as the research instrument. A total of 210 respondents participated in this study, comprising both undergraduate and postgraduate students. The findings show that the most popular type of online game is PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG), followed by Mobile Legend (ML), Call of Duty (CoD), Defense of the Ancients (DotA), and Free Fire. The levels of online gaming addiction and mental health among IIUM students were found to be significantly low. The relationships between online gaming addiction and mental health components, namely depression, anxiety, and loneliness, were found to be significant and positive. Based on the social cognitive theory tested, all the developed hypotheses were accepted. This study suggests that future research should examine the impact of online gaming addiction on academic performance and physical health. Besides, future research can investigate other theories such as agenda-setting theory, cultivation theory, dependency theory, and media effect theory.

Published: December 2020

The Oil Palm Assistance Scheme for Replanting (TSSPK) and the New Planting (TBSPK) for Independent Smallholders (ISH) were inaugurated in 2011 as part of the 10th Malaysia Plan. It is a subset of the National Key Economic Area (NKEA) Oil Palm Commodities Entry Point Project 1 (EPP1). Among the assistance included in these schemes are the high-quality seedlings, agricultural inputs such as fertilisers and pesticides along with the cash fund for land preparation and cultivation of the seedlings. The smallholders who participated in these schemes were also given extension services by the MPOB extension agent (TUNAS) on various aspects of oil palm management. A total of 382 participants were involved and responded to the survey. The proportion of respondents are from Sabah (38.5%), Sarawak (38%), and Johor (23.6%). The study found that the average age of the participants mostly is 60 years old and above (40.1%), and 57.4% of participants were the owner of the oil palm plantation. The range of fresh fruit bunch (FFB) production harvested for the first and second year is between 0 - 4.6t/ha/year, which is slightly low due to the El Nino occurrence in 2016. A profit in income was recorded from the FFB sales after participating in the scheme. The low-income category recorded a decrease of 30.11% while the higher income category showed an increased between 2.66% to 16.59% after they joined the schemes. Some participants also implemented the integrated cash crops alongside the oil palm to generate income while waiting for the immature oil palm to produce yield. This study shows that most of the respondents complied with the Good Agriculture Practice (GAP) after joining the scheme. Most of the participants were pleased with the implementation of the schemes and services done by the TUNAS Officers and gave them an excellent rating. Several improvements are suggested such as agriculture input distribution, clustering the smallholders into cooperatives, continuity of GAP implementation, and comprehensive research in the future.

Equity Short Selling and the Cost of Debt
Authors: Nejadmaleyeri Ali , Erturk Bilal
Published: December 2020

Empirical evidence suggests that short sales have pertinent information about firm fundamentals. If so, then information from short selling in liquid equity markets can be informative for infrequently traded corporate bonds. The adverse information conveyed by short interest should mean higher cost of debt. Using a large sample of corporate bonds, we examine whether lagged equity short interest affects credit spreads. Highly shorted firms do experience wider credit spreads in the subsequent months. Moreover, the increase in short interest leads to higher credit spreads. Short interest thus seems to contain adverse information about firm fundamentals that can prove useful to bond investors.
A EXPANSÃO DO AGRONEGÓCIO EM TEMPOS DE PANDEMIA - COVID-19
Authors: Dias de Sousa Raimunda Aurea
Published: December 2020

A concentração de terra, no Brasil, em tempos de pandemia ocasionada pelo coronavírus, põe em evidencia o modelo agroalimentar sustentado pelas grandes corporações, promotor de doenças e de alimentos, que não têm como ponto de partida a população local, mas a necessidade do mercado. Nesse sentido, o presente estudo busca analisar o agronegócio como gerador de uma (des) confiança no que se refere à produção alimentar, especialmente, no momento da COVID-19 em que se observa ampla produção para atender ao mercado externo e, ao mesmo tempo, diminuição de alimentos seguida de alta no preço dos produtos de necessidade básica. Para alcançar o objetivo proposto, traçou-se como percurso metodológico, desde pesquisa bibliográfica a consultas de documentos relativos ao assunto. A partir dos dados e informações coletadas, foi possível entender que a crise de abastecimento no momento que estamos vivenciando está ligada à opção mundial em transformar a agricultura em um negócio que, se por um lado, garante melhoria na economia e evita queda no Produto Interno Bruto, por outro, exclui os trabalhadores e as trabalhadoras do acesso à comida.

Published: December 2020

Atualmente, o mundo está passando por uma pandemia sem precedentes no nível de disseminação que resultou em várias crises, impactando negativamente o cotidiano das populações, provocando problemas de ordem sanitária, social e econômica. É importante compreender que a dispersão da doença em municípios fora da Região Metropolitana de Fortaleza podem contribuir para o surgimento de novos focos de contaminação. Nesse contexto, o principal objetivo deste trabalho é analisar a evolução inicial dos casos confirmados do novo Coronavírus e como a população percebe esse problema. Foi realizada uma pesquisa bibliográfica  sobre os conceitos utilizados, elaborado o mapeamento dos casos durante o mês de abril e aplicados questionários, para entender a percepção dos moradores de Canindé sobre o Covid-19 e identificar os impactos sociais que o vírus fornece na rotina dos moradores de Canindé. A análise mostrou que a evolução dos casos é diferente da percepção dos moradores, que demonstraram relativa consciência da pandemia e de seus problemas. Ficou claro que o aumento de casos significa possível adesão a ideias falsas ligadas às redes sociais e desobediência a medidas preventivas.

Authors: Boonyanam Nararuk , Bejranonda Somskaow
Published: December 2020

The rapid increase in economic development and urbanisation along the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) of Thailand has accelerated the change in its ecosystem service value (ESV), leading to the demand for related analysis to ensure sustainable growth in the area. The aim of this study is to: (1) evaluate the land use change in Chonburi Province; the most urbanised city in the EEC of Thailand between 2006 and 2016, and (2) assess the land use change impact on ESV. Secondary data from land use maps for 2006 and 2016 was used to evaluate land use change and its impact on ESV using the land use transition matrix, land use dynamic degree, and the benefit transfer method. Urban and built-up land use were found to dominate other use types. The top three highest annual rates of land use change were found in water bodies, rangeland, and urban and built-up land. The ESV in 2016 was found to be 1.31% higher than for 2006. The ecosystem service functions (ESFs) contributing to the increase in ESV were waste treatment, hydrological regulation, climate regulation and recreation and service culture. Future land use planning should focus on increasing wetlands and protecting agricultural land in the study area since these contribute to the highest ESV. In addition, it is essential to balance economic development with ecological enhancement.
Logical and Metaphysical Assumptions of Bernard Bolzano’s Theodicy
Authors: Łukasiewicz Dariusz
Published: December 2020

Bolzano's theodicy is a very good example of Platonism in the philosophy of religion. Above all, Bolzano believes that there obtains an ideal realm of truths in themselves and mathematical objects, which are independent of God. Therefore, we are allowed to conclude that God is only a contractor; true, more powerful than Plato's demiurge because He created substances (and matter) and sustains them in existence, but God must follow a project which is independent of Him. Since the world is determined, by the program and God follows the program, then in fact the program is a god, or better, there is no God (at least in the sense of the classical Christian tradition). Bolzano's project is not related to God's essence, since it is external to God, and is not made by God. Thus, Bolzano's theodicy is also the absolute opposite of the Cartesian theodicy. God in the Cartesian theodicy can change all rules, all scientific laws and, in consequence, He can create any world He wants. Bolzano's God cannot change anything and cannot create a different world than the world determined by the project, a world different than the one He has created. The responsibility of Bolzano's God for the evil in the world is limited by the project of the world.
The Notion of Conceptualized Experience in John Mcdowell's Mind and World
Authors: Szałek Piotr K.
Published: December 2020

In this paper I would like to asses critically McDowell's argument to the effect that all experience is conceptualized and explain the role that this thesis plays within his general philosophical project. It has been argued that McDowell's conception of experience leads to idealism. I will demonstrate why this charge could be made and whether it is a charge which McDowell can adequately respond to. The paper will clarify McDowell's conception of conceptualized experience, and evaluate its efficacy for his philosophical aim. In order to accomplish these goals, the paper will contain the following two components: (1) a reconstruction of McDowell's position, and (2) its critical analysis. To reconstruct the position of McDowell, I will try (i) to establish his motives (i.e. avoiding the collapse into the Myth of the Given or coherentism), and (ii) the sources of inspiration for his thought and its and context (the Kantian categories of receptivity and spontaneity; the thought of D. Davidson, W. Sellars, G. Evans and Ch. Peacocke); (iii) and to explain his arguments (i.e. the general idea of the unboundedness of the conceptual, and the arguments against existence of non-conceptual content) and his defence against the charge of idealism. In order to critically analyse his position, I will try to evaluate it in terms of whether his defence against the objections to his proposal, in particular the charge of idealism, is successful.

The Problem of Evil in Józef Tischner's Philosophy
Authors: Gadacz Tadeusz
Published: December 2020

The problem of evil is a metaphysical problem bound up with the conditions of human existence. The radical evil of fascism and communism, according to Józef Tischner, opens up the possibility that we live in the time of a modern Manichaeism, understood as having two faces: nihilism and pessimism. The possibility of thinking of such a modem form of Manichaeism necessarily calls for a new inquiry into the question of evil. For Tischner, evil, like good, is not an object, but something in which man participates, and for this reason it cannot be objectified and defined. One can only ask how it appears.
Reception of some Aspects of the Hippocratic Medical Ethics in Antiquity
Authors: Aszyk Piotr
Published: December 2020

The Hellenic medical ideas have found appreciation among people over centuries. Though the initial concept remained the same, methods or ways to achieve desired aims have changed. Since Hippocrates, new generations of physicians have worked hard to find more powerful types of therapies to relieve their patients and make treatment less burdensome. The struggle of medicine is very specific and requires, apart from practical skills, a clear personal commitment to help people wisely. From the Early Antiquity, both medicine and medical ethics go together. Wherever Hippocratic medicine is practiced, an appropriate moral pattern accompanies it because the Hellenic doctor offered purely clinical data and his art should not be separated from anthropology, ethics and religion.
Putnamian Constraints on Pluralistic Theology of Religions
Authors: Sikora Piotr
Published: December 2020

There are many arguments that so-called pluralistic theologies of religions face difficulties in being sufficiently pluralistic. In order to meet such an objection, a pluralist offers different solutions. I argue that the range of plausible possibilities for a pluralist is strongly constrained by philosophical arguments which one can develop out of the philosophy of Hilary Putnam. In the first part of this paper, I sketch out three important strands of the Putnamian thought I consider worth defending. Given such presuppositions, I formulate two constraints on pluralistic theology of religions. In the last section of my paper, I briefly point out which of the particular standpoints, often labelled as “pluralistic theology of religions,” have problems with meeting formulated constraints, and which of the “pluralists” seem to be in accordance with them.
Les aspects philosophiques de la théologie selon Jean Duns Scot: de la science à la pratique
Authors: Chabada Michal
Published: December 2020

Theologians of the 14th C. agreed that theology is scientific knowledge based upon the truths of revelation. But the very introduction of Aristotle's and aristotelian philosophy into theology turned out to be problematic. Above all, it was questionable to integrate theology—as a science based on revelation—within the aristotelian framework of sciences. This problem is difficult for Scotus in two ways. On the one hand, he uses the concepts elaborated in greek philosophy, but, on the other hand, his franciscan spirituality compels him towards the opposite solution. Scotus only has the Aristotle's division of theoretical and practical sciences at his disposal to determine the character of theology, and he chooses to classify theology as practical science. Scotus is pouring “new wine” of Christian revelation into “old wineskins” of greek philosophy, the fact causing noticeable problems when interpreting many Scotus' ideas and views.
Reconstruction of Demographic Consequences of the Time of Troubles for Russian Cities According to Statistical Documents of the Moscow State
Authors: Popov Grigoriy
Published: December 2020

The article contains attempts to reconstruct the demographic losses of Russian cities affected by the fighting during the Time of Troubles. The attempts are based on a comparison of statistical materials created by contemporaries of those events. The author proves that the Troubles included, among other conflicts, the war between the Moscow State and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, this war brought the greatest destruction and losses to Russia, probably even greater than the Mongol

invasion in the 13th century. Lithuanian troops acted quite independently preferring to conduct operations outside of Moscow and its environs in the 1611–1612s, these actions of the Lithuanian troops were accompanied by the genocide of the Russian population and led to a severe protracted crisis in the economy of

the Russian city.
The Development of the Search Movement in the Context of Orthodox Traditions of Honouring Those who Died for the Fatherland
Authors: Komarov Dmitriy
Published: December 2020

An important element included in the concept of civic-patriotic education

implemented in the Russian Federation is to preserve the memory of the heroic acts performed by our citizens in hard times of history. In the post-war period a unique volunteer movement like the search movement emerged in the Soviet Union. The article studies the causes of the search as a social «grass-roots» initiative and its evolution. The article determines relevance and importance of search work for our

country. According to official figures, up to 2,5 million people are currently on the

list of the «missing in action» during the Great Patriotic War.

The activities of the search squads are studied in the background of the

Orthodox traditions of honouring and commemoration of the dead that had been

held in Russia until 1917. The article states their main stages and determines

the role and place of the Russian Orthodox Church. It is shown that the

formation of a single structure lasted for several centuries and was finally formed only at the beginning of the 20th century. The work determines differences in the Orthodox tradition of reverence for fallen warriors and search activity, which is initially, in fact, a phenomenon that arose within the framework

of the Soviet-atheistic ideology.

The study of the modern development stage of the search movement and the

activities of the Russian Orthodox Church in this regard allow the author to talk

about combining the pre-revolutionary Orthodox practice of honouring and commemorating the fallen soldiers with the traditions and experience gained by the country’s search squads. A vivid proof of this tradition is the multi-million people’s public movement «Immortal Regiment», which is expanding every year and has gone far beyond Russia.
The Design Of Soybean Fermentation Process Equipment Using Temperature And Humidity Controls For Small Scale Tempe Production.
Authors: Yusuf Ismail Nakhoda  , Aryuanto Soetedjo  , Pravasta Ongko S
Published: December 2020

In making tempeh, the fermentation process is an important process. The fermentation process of tempeh really determines the quality of the tempe produced. In the conventional method, the temperature and humidity in the tempe fermentation process are not regulated, so the fermentation results are strongly influenced by the weather. In general, the fermentation process for tempeh takes about one and a half days. With technological advances in electronics, temperature and humidity can be controlled according to the desired range. By utilizing temperature and humidity controllers in the tempe fermentation process, the time of making tempe can be accelerated without reducing the quality of the tempe produced. From the test results, it was found that the controller was able to maintain an average temperature of 37.63 0C, an average humidity of 57.46%, and was able to accelerate the fermentation process of tempeh within 24 hours with an average power consumption of 212.27 Watt and used to produce tempe for small scale tempe craftsmen.

Tachigali inca (Caesalpinioideae – Leguminosae), a new species of giant tree from Amazonian forests
Authors: Huamantupa-Chuquimaco Isau , De Lima Haroldo C. , Cardoso Domingos B.O.S.
Published: December 2020

The new species Tachigali inca is described and illustrated. It grows in lowland ‘terra firme’ forest of Amazonian Brazil, in the sub-Andean Amazon region of Peru, and in northeastern Bolivia. The species differs markedly from its most closely related species (T. amarumayu, T. prancei and T. setifera, all belonging to the “setifera group”), by the large cylindrical domatia on the leaf rachis, and by the brown-orange pulverulent indumentum on the abaxial surface of the leaflets and the young twigs; on older branches the indumentum becomes darker, degrades and then breaks off. It also differs by its linear petals with the upper half densely tomentose, the hairs forming small tufts.
