Persepsi Masyarakat terhadap Aktivitas Dakwah Salafi di Desa Suka Makmur Kecamatan Gunung Sahilan Kabupaten Kampar
Authors: Tata Anantia Syafitri  , Tomi Hendra
Published: August 2024

Salafi is one of the streams of Islam that adheres to the strategies and patterns of da'wah carried out by the Prophet, companions, tabi'in and tabi'it tabi'in. Meanwhile, perception is the view or judgment of a person or group regarding a matter or object. This research was conducted in order to find out how the people in Suka Makmur Village perceive the da'wah activities held by the Salafi-based community and what activities are carried out by the Salafi-based community. This study uses a qualitative method. Data collection is done by observation, interviews and documentation. Based on the results of the research, the perception of the prosperous village community towards Salafi, which has developed since 2010, has no longer any resistance, such as when Salafi first entered the village, but there are still some people who still do not accept Salafi teachings, which are different from the teachings accepted by the community. The majority of people have accepted these differences in teachings as long as they do not deviate from the teachings of Islam.

A game of Icy Waters. A Case Study of Domokos Szilágyi's Translation of Two Poems by Nichita Stănescu
Authors:   UBB Cluj-Napoca, ANDRÉ Ferenc
Published: August 2024

This case study examines the Hungarian translation of two poems by Nichita Stănescu done by Domokos Szilágyi. The first part of the paper briefly outlines the life and poetic art of Nichita Stănescu, emphasizing the significant role he played in 20th-century Romanian poetry. Stănescu’s contribution brought originality and linguistic innovation to Romanian poetry, aspects that are highly complex and therefore challenging to convey in other languages. Domokos Szilágyi, himself a recognized poet and translator, translated several poems by Stănescu in the anthology titled Víziorgona (Water Organ). These translations were acclaimed by both contemporaries and later generations. The second part of the study provides a deeper and more detailed analysis of Szilágyi’s Hungarian translations of the two highlighted poems (Orga de apă, N-ai să vii – Water Organ, You Won’t Come). It not only focuses on the technical aspects of linguistic translation but delves into the musical and poetic characteristization of the poetic texts. Within this process, discussions revolve around playful use of language, grammatical subtleties, the transferability of rhymes and rhythm, while considering the equivalence criteria applied in literary translation. Beyond the technical approach, the analysis highlights the creative and artistic aspects of the translation work. The study explores to what extent translation can be viewed as a creative act and a creative activity in itself and examines how it intertwines with the atmosphere of the original work and opens up new dimensions in the target language. Keywords: literary translation, poetry translation, Romanian poetry, equivalence, language play, rhyme, rhythm, musicality, Domokos Szilágyi, Nichita Stănescu, Water Organ.

Let $G$ be a graph. For a set $\mathcal{H}$ of connected graphs, an $\mathcal{H}$-factor of graph $G$ is a spanning subgraph $H$ of $G$ such that every component of $H$ is isomorphic to a member of $\mathcal{H}$. Denote $\mathcal{H}=\{P_2\}\cup \{C_i|i\ge 3\}$. We call $\mathcal{H}$-factor a perfect 2-matching of $G$, that is, a perfect 2-matching is a spanning subgraph of $G$ such that each component of $G$ is either an edge or a cycle. In this paper, we define the new concept of perfect $2$-matching uniform graph, namely, a graph $G$ is called a perfect $2$-matching uniform graph if for arbitrary two distinct edges $e_1$ and $e_2$ of $G$, $G$ contains a perfect $2$-matching containing $e_1$ and avoiding $e_2$. In addition, we study the relationship between some graphic parameters and the existence of perfect $2$-matching uniform graphs. The results obtained in this paper are sharp in some sense.

Physical meaning of Planck’s constant
Authors:   National Research Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics, Astronomy Department, Helwan, Cairo, Egypt, SANAD M.R.
Published: August 2024

The photon energy with its corresponding frequency, wavelength and distance can be determined by the main physical parameters (mass, distance, time) of the particles (electrons, nucleons, molecules) as a result of their excitation, transition, vibration and rotation. All calculations for mass, distance and time for all particles give the same value which corresponds and equals to Planck's constant in all electromagnetic bands, so the physical meaning of Planck's constant is interpreted which represents these three main physical parameters as a result of the physical mechanisms responsible for excited states of nuclei, atoms and molecules. As a result of the equality between Planck's constant and the mentioned three physical parameters a new equation of calculating exact distance of all emitted photons from nuclei, atoms and molecules from radio waves to gamma rays is deduced.

This study aims to examine heat transfer and fluid flow around a heated solid obstacle in a lid-driven cavity filled with a hybrid TiO2-Cu/water nanofluid. The geometry being analyzed is a two-dimensional cavity with an aspect ratio of 5. The upper wall moves at a constant velocity of Ulid. The solid obstacle connected to the bottom wall of the cavity is kept at a higher temperature than the top and lower walls, while the remaining walls are insulated. The hybrid nanofluid flow is considered to be Newtonian, laminar, and incompressible. The Richardson number's impact is analyzed by keeping the Reynolds number constant at 100 and adjusting the Grashof number from 102 to 104. The volume fractions of each nanoparticles range from 0% to 8%. The results are presented in terms of streamlines, isotherms, and profiles of the average Nusselt number. Numerical data indicates that cells rotating in opposite directions are formed inside the rectangular container as a result of the combined influence of natural and forced convection. Increasing the Richardson number from 0.01 to 1, due to heightened buoyancy effect, results in a 4.5% increase in the Nusselt number. An increase of 8% in the volume percentage of nanoparticles for each Richardson number results in a heat transfer rate enhancement of around 9.8%.
Fuel-air ratio effect on hydrogen-methane flames in a high pressure burner for gas turbines
Authors:   University M’Hamed Bougara UMBB of Boumerdes, Algeria, Faculty of Technology, LEMI, Laboratory of Energy, Mechanics and Engineering, OUALI Sofiane
Published: August 2024

This numerical simulation studied the effect of H2-CH4 flame equivalence ratio on turbulent premixed combustion at 50%-50% concentration (by volume). The equivalence ratio was varied from 0.45 to 1.0 in 0.5 increments for 126 kW operating power, matching a 3.3 bar inlet reactant pressure. Tests utilized a gas turbine combustor. The thermal field, flow field, and pollutant emissions (NOx and CO) underwent rigorous analysis. The modelling framework applied steady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations coupled to a probability density function (PDF) approach for turbulence-chemistry interactions and a NOx formation model.
Results showed increasing equivalence ratio from 0.45 to 1.0 elevated temperature approximately 900 K, significantly promoting NOx up to 1600 ppm and CO beyond 1900 ppm. However, equivalence ratio changes minimally impacted the overall flow field, maintaining stabilized flames. These findings provide new insight on thermochemical effects and flame stability in gas turbine (G.T) combustors across a range of equivalence ratios relevant for clean, high-pressure H2-CH4 combustion. The combined RANS-PDF methodology enables predictive simulation of turbulence, kinetics, emissions, and flame stability to guide optimal fuel-air ratio selection and low-emission combustor design.

Polymer-based nanocomposites combine increased mechanical properties and heat resistance than pure polymer materials. In this article, poly(methyl methacrylate-co-N-vinyl-2-pyridone)/polyethylene glycol/multi-walled carbon nanotube (P(MMA-co-VP)/PEG/MWCNTs) nanocomposites were prepared by radical copolymerization. To improve the dispersion of MWCNTs in P(MMA-co-VP)/PEG, they were functionalized and characterized with Raman, FTIR spectroscopy, and SEM. The effect of functionalized MWCNTs content on the mechanical and thermal properties of nanocomposites was studied. Although MWCNTs had the potential to induce PEG crystallization, no PEG crystals were found in P(MMA-co-VP)/PEG/MWCNTs. At the same time, MWCNTs had obvious effects as enhancers, and with the increase of their content, the mechanical properties, dynamic modulus and thermal stability of nanocomposites were improved compared with P(MMA-co-VP)/PEG.

We investigate diffusion equations which have concentration dependent diffusion coefficients with physically two relevant Ansatze, the self-similar and the traveling wave Ansatz. We found that for power-law concentration dependence some of the results can be expressed with a general analytic implicit formulas for both trial functions. For the self-similar case some of the solutions can be given with a formula containing the hypergeometric function. For the traveling wave case different analytic formulas are given for different exponents. For some physically reasonable parameter sets the direct solutions are given and analyzed in details.

An effective neural network method is proposed to solve the fractional Duffing system in this paper. First, a multi-layer neural network is designed and the output is assumed as the solution. Secondly, by numerical discretization of the Caputo derivative using the L1 scheme, a discrete optimization problem is obtained. The famous Adam algorithm is used to train the neural network and parallel computing is suggested to reduce the computational cost. The neural network experimental results show that the analytical solution has a high accuracy and is in a good agreement with the numerical one.

Materials exhibiting up-conversion luminescence with rare earth ions have found extensive applications in anti-counterfeiting technologies. However, the practical realization of dual-mode photoluminescence poses challenges in meeting the increasingly complex requirements of modern anti-counterfeiting measures. This study introduces a novel approach, successfully synthesizing dual-mode excitation, dual-color emission Yb3+/Er3+ co-doped BaGeTeO6 phosphors through a single-step high-temperature solid-state method. The BaGeTeO6:Yb3+/Er3+ phosphor demonstrates simultaneous green and red emission under 980 nm excitation, with the emitted color transitioning from green to red by controlling the dopant concentrations. Conversely, under 1550 nm excitation, primarily a single-band red emission is observed. The inclusion of multi-color emissions enhances the security of multi-mode anti-counterfeiting measures. The potential up-conversion mechanisms under different excitation sources at 980 and 1550 nm were systematically investigated. Additionally, the anti-counterfeiting efficacy of the synthesized phosphor was assessed based on the intensity ratio of red and green emissions. Furthermore, it has been found that optimizing the molar ratio between Er3+ and Yb3+ ions improves the performance of the examined materials, making them suitable for use as a high-quality optical thermometer employing the FIR technique. Our results indicate promising prospects for the application of BaGeTeO6:Er3+/Yb3+ in the field of anti-counterfeiting.

In this work, the influence of light on the temperature dependence of transverse magnetoresistance oscillations is studied. A generalized mathematical expression that calculates the temperature and light dependence of the quasi-Fermi levels of smallscale p-type semiconductor structures in a quantizing magnetic field is derived. New analytical expressions have been found to represent the temperature dependence of transverse differential magnetoresistance ossillations in dark and light situations, taking into account the effect of light on the ossillations of the Fermi energy of small-scale semiconductor structures. A mathematical model has been developed that determines the light dependence of the second-order derivative of the transverse magnetoresistance oscillations of p-type semiconductors with quantum wells by magnetic field induction. A new theory is proposed, which explains the reasons for the significant shift of the
differential magnetoresistance oscillations along the vertical axis measured in the experiment for dark and light conditions.

Three-dimensional (3D) numerical studies closer to real physical scenarios have received increasing academic attention for providing a better design reference for electrohydrodynamic (EHD) pumping technology. A 3D computational model of a cylindrical EHD cascade actuator based on needle-to-ring electrodes is established in this paper, in which the effects of injection, field-enhanced dissociation, and surface charge accumulation are jointly involved. We explore the strongly coupling behavior of the EHD flow pattern with charge motion in an isothermal incompressible dielectric liquid, analyzing the flow rate, dynamic pressure, and current. It is found that an asymmetrical 3D vortex structure appears within the 2D axisymmetric actuator body, which is attributed to the motion of opposite charges.

This article presents the results of an empirical study aimed at establishing the prevalence and types of personality disorders encountered among women in custody in Romanian prisons. It is important to emphasize that incarcerated women in Romania represent a category of inmates that has been insufficiently investigated regarding personality disorders. To date, there are no specific studies conducted among this group of inmates in Romania on this topic. The research sample consisted of definitively sentenced incarcerated women (N=200 respondents) serving their sentences in the only prison in Romania that exclusively houses women, distributed across all detention regimes. The SCID-II Personality Questionnaire was used, designed to identify and evaluate personality disorders according to the criteria of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition (DSM-IV). The percentage distribution shows that obsessive-compulsive (82%) and borderline (80%) personality disorders are among the most prevalent observed in incarcerated women included in this study. For other personality disorders, a prevalence ranging from 11,5% to 75% was observed. The result of this research have significant practical implications, providing a solid foundation for the development of specific intervention programs dedicated to this category. Thus, specialists in the penitentiary administration system can use this data to create programs based on a genuine understanding of these women`s profiles.

As individuals age, they face increasing vulnerability, compounded by negative stereotypes associated with aging and perceived health decline, contributing to an overall negative perception of old age (Bugental și Hehman, 2007). This systematic review investigates the consequences of age-related stereotypes and prejudices over a 10-year period (2010–2020). Analyzing specialized literature, it uncovers evidence on how stereotypes impact mental health, performance, memory, driving skills, and sexual activity, significantly affecting well-being, cognitive decline, and exerting notable neurological impacts. This study explores implications at individual and organizational levels, emphasizing the integration of older individuals into diverse groups for enhanced well-being and increased productivity. Furthermore, it underscores the importance of challenging stereotypes, promoting positive aging narratives, and implementing targeted interventions, such as educational programs and intergenerational interactions, to foster inclusivity and combat ageism in society. Acknowledging and addressing these issues can contribute to creating a more respectful, supportive, and age-friendly environment.

This paper presents the main variables associated with positive parenting, the effects of parenting styles on children’s development, the importance of positive discipline, the role of parental stress in children's development, and ways to intervene to increase family mental health. Parenting is influenced by individual characteristics of parents and children (personality of parents, their cognitive and behavioral predispositions, child characteristics), characteristics of the relationship between parents (conflicts, quality of couple relationship, co-parenting, dyadic coping, mutual support) and contextual factors (financial stress, stress at work). Chronic stress and emotional problems of parents (depression, anxiety) increase the vulnerability for different types of addictions in parents and children (food addiction, alcohol and substance addiction, Internet addiction) and influence the well-being of the family. Education and counseling programs can help families cope with difficult situations and prevent the development of children’s socio-emotional problems and various types of long-term addictions.

This study explores the connection between Post-migration Stress and Psychological Well-Being among Ukrainian refugees in Romania, with a focus on the moderating roles of Resilience and Social Support. Using scales for stress, well-being, resilience, and social support, data was collected from Ukrainian refugees (N = 84), mostly women aged 18 to 68. The analysis, conducted before significant changes in government support, revealed a negative correlation between post-migration stress and psychological well-being. Both resilience and social support showed moderating effects in the relationship between post-migration stress and environmental mastery (a facet of psychological well-being construct). The study also examined demographic variations within the refugee community in relation to stress, well-being, social support, and resilience, highlighting potential impacts of subsequent changes in refugees’ circumstances on research outcomes.

A multilevel approach to studying psychological distress is essential to better understand the interaction between psychological and contextual factors and to identify the early signs of psychological distress. The present cross-sectional study used a multi-dimensional perspective to examine adults’ psychological distress. We were interested in exploring the roles of emotional (i.e., rejection sensitivity), behavioral (i.e., smartphone addiction), and physical (i.e., sleep quality) predictors of psychological distress among adults. Our sample comprised 236 Romanian adults aged 18 to 58 (M = 24.58, SD = 7.10, 82.2% females). Inclusion criteria were related to age (> 18) and the use of a smartphone. Participants completed a web-based survey at the beginning of 2023. Correlation analyses suggested that high smartphone addiction, low sleep quality, and high rejection sensitivity were significantly associated with high psychological distress. Age was not significantly associated with psychological distress, and no significant gender-based differences were found in this regard. Multiple hierarchical regression analysis results suggested that psychological distress was best predicted by sleep quality and rejection sensitivity. Smartphone addiction was not a significant predictor in the proposed models. We discuss the present findings concerning their practical implications regarding the potential interventions to reduce adults’ psychological distress

Hearsay Evidential Markers: On the Degree of Grammaticalization of Italian dice che and Romanian cică
Authors:   suzukish@a00.itscom.net, SUZUKI SHINGO
Published: August 2024

In this study, I examined the hearsay evidential markers, namely dice che in Italian (central southern varieties) and cică in Romanian, both of which convey the meaning ‘it is said that/allegedly’ and have solidified into functional elements within their respective languages. To verify that the forms dice che/cică represent evidential markers, I analysed them phonologically, morphologically, syntactically and semantically. I began with Italian dice che, which has not undergone phonological
reduction. Subsequently, after a brief overview of other Romance languages, I examined Romanian
cică to understand its degree of grammaticalization. The results thus obtained clearly show the
differences in the degree of grammaticalization between dice che and cică: Italian dice che is still in an early stage of grammaticalization, while Romanian cică is much more advanced.

This article represents a preliminary study within the project Paremiological items based on religious terms. A special view on Romanian, Spanish, French and Portuguese that I coordinate at the Romance Department of the Institute of Linguistics “Iorgu Iordan – Al. Rosetti”. This type of approach is necessary considering the general tendency in the field to base the contrastive research only on Western Romance data. Furthermore, the proverbs containing religious terms have been only superficially and inconsistently investigated.
In this article, I traced back the main issues of a contrastive Romance proverb analysis. I took
into account the previous research gains of the field, as well as a multitude of theoretical-conceptual distinctions, such as: proverb items vs. other types of complex structures, like phraseological units; subtypes of proverb units; proverb variants and invariants; proverb lexical variants and border proverb units; the concept of ‘ethnofield’; proverb synonymy in the narrow vs. broad sense; literal vs. conceptual proverb equivalence; interlinguistic proverb variance and proverb heteronimy, etc.
All these aspects were considered into the outline of the general project framework.

Our research proposes a psycho- and sociolinguistic analysis of nicknames in the school environment, as well as the establishment of criteria that differentiate between amusing and aggressive nicknames. Bullying has recently become a topic of interest for psychologists in Romania and it continues to be a relevant issue. The implications that this phenomenon has on the development of children can also be observed through the nicknames they assign to each other. Therefore, this study aims to highlight that not all nicknames are forms of bullying. To collect the necessary data, we combined direct field investigation with an examination of language facts. The surveyed locations include both rural areas (Vadu Izei, Berbești, Giulești, Sat Șugatag, Hărnicești, Desești, and Mara) and urban areas (Sighetu Marmației and Baia Mare) in Maramureș country. The participants are between the ages of 10 and 50 and include both students and teachers.

In the volume corresponding to the letters J, K, Q, published in 2010, the articles kalmâc and quazi, the Romanian names of two populations, one Mongolian and the other Germanic, are worked on. The documentation for the second edition of the DLR makes it possible to identify two rich series of etymological variants of the two words, due to borrowing on different channels and varied adaptation to the Romanian language system. On the one
hand, it is about the forms: calmăș, calmâc, calmâș, calmâț, calmuc, calmuk, calmuș, călmăș, kalmâc, kalmâk, kalmuc. On the other hand, it is about the forms, in the plural: cadi, cuadi, cuazi, cvadi, cvazi, gvadi, gvazi, kuazi, kvadi, quadi, quasi, quazi, qvazi. The frequency and constant presence in texts of the calmuc ‘Kalmyk’ form, as well as the competition in recent texts of the cvazi and quazi ‘Quasi’
forms are arguments for reconsidering the kalmâc and quazi title-forms in favor of the calmuc ‘Kalmyk’ and cvazi ‘Quasi’ forms.

The derivatives with the suffix -eț were mainly formed according to the Slavic model, imitating the structure of borrowings from Slavonic, Old Slavonic and modern Slavic languages, which entered in the Romanian language both through culture and oral. The first formations with the suffix -eț on Romanian appeared in the 16th century, the suffix being active and productive in the old language. The peak in the use of the suffix -eț is the 19th century, but most of the derivatives from this period constitute regional elements. In the current Romanian language, it has lost its productivity, being replaced by equivalent suffixes from the standard language. The structural element, however, is very productive in compound suffixes -uleț, -areț/-ăreț. The derivatives with the analyzed suffix, as a rule, have the accent on the suffix, while borrowings from Slavic languages have the accent on both the suffix and the root of the word. Most of the lexemes organized with the suffix -eț are today obsolete, popular or regional, the latter impressive from a quantitative point of view.

This article outlines how topics and related activities based upon elements related to interest and anxiety for Nigerian senior secondary school two (SS II) science textbooks were identified, which was part of greater study conducted which was aimed to ascertain the elements and contents connected to interest and anxiety in science learning of the Nigerian SS II science curriculum. First, an initial list of items, topics, activities, and local materials relevant to interest and anxiety was established. Second, using this list and a framework for relevancy and not relevancy of the elements, topics, connected activities, and local materials for SS II science Curriculum and School Textbooks were analysed. Third, based on this content analysis, a possible list of 40 different topics and their related activities for the inclusion of elements related to interest and anxiety was arranged. The list of the elements, topics related activities and local materials were refined by applying two-round Expert consensus which has been considered consistent in Delphi technique. The Expert’s consensus survey technique was employed to reach the level of consensus from specialists in the field of scientific education regarding the suitability of the items of the study (that is, aspects, subjects, related activities, and local materials in the SS II Nigerian science textbooks) that must be included. The results showed that of the element and 6 topics and related activities were 22 statements with options of “Yes” and “No” the higher percentages (%) of the experts responded “Yes” for round one. The results also indicated that of 24 statements for the suitability of the topics and related activities there are higher percentages (%) of “Yes”. This confirmed that the themes, related activities, and local community learning materials could be incorporated into the Science Education module for Nigerian SS II female students.

Improved Air Quality Forecasting-Based on Machine Learning and Multivariate Regression Techniques
Authors: CHOI Soo-Min
Published: August 2024

Hourly-based improved prediction of present air quality state (PM10, PM2.5, and NO2) with 15 input independent variables (3 hours\' earlier PM, gas and meteorological data of a Korean city affected by 2 days\' earlier PM and gas data of Beijing city in the Yellow Dust route was performed using Machine Learning (ANN-Tanh) and Multivariate Regression techniques. ANN-tanh model of multilayer perception (MLP) structure with a feed-forward input data and backpropagation training process for error calculation with 15 nodes in a single hidden layer was adopted to calculate present urban air quality. Root mean square error (RMSE) and the coefficient of determination (R2; Pearson R) evaluated the performance ability of the model between the predicted and measured values before, during, and after the Yellow Sand event at the Korean coastal city. Multivariate regression technique was also used to predict the urban air quality with the same input data. The prediction accuracies of the two models were compared before, during, and after the Yellow Dust period and regardless of the event, Pearson R correlation coefficients using the ANN-tanh model (multivariate regression model) were quite high as 0.935 (0.961), 0.943 (0.948) and 0. 947 (0.920) for PM10, 0.942 (0.909), 0.969 (0.977) and 0.938 (0.947) for PM2.5, and 0.925 (0.860), 0.853 (0.875) and 0.886 (0.903) for NO2, respectively. Their prediction ability overall was quite excellent, showing a slightly higher R in the ANN-Tanh. Their hourly distributions of predicted and measured values of 3 outputs were drawn to compare their model performance.
Friedliche Gewalt!

In seinem Beitrag vom 13. August beleuchtet Thomas Groß die Rechtsprechung des Bundesverfassungsgerichts zu Sitzblockaden und ihre Bedeutung für die Bewertung von Protestaktionen der Letzten Generation. Es widerspräche der Normhierarchie, wenn der einfache Gesetzgeber berechtigt wäre, als „friedlich“ qualifiziertes Verhalten mit dem entgegengesetzten Begriff der „Gewalt“ zu belegen. Dem ist entgegenzuhalten, dass die Rechtsprechung der Karlsruher Richterinnen und Richter seit Jahrzehnten von der Einsicht geprägt ist, dass eine Versammlung, die nach strafrechtlichen Maßstäben Gewalt ausübt, nicht zwangsläufig unfriedlich i.S.d. Art. 8 Abs. 1 GG ist.

Kidney failure is a condition that results in the kidneys losing their ability to maintain the volume and composition of body fluids under normal food intake. The main factor causing anemia in chronic kidney failure is the reduction of red blood cells due to falling levels of the hormone erythropoietin (EPO). The study was conducted on February 4, 2023 to March 4, 2023, in the Hemodialysis Room at RSUD dr. M. Yunus Bengkulu. This study aims to determine hemoglobin levels after undergoing hemodialysis in patients with chronic renal failure. This study was conducted by descriptive method using sampling techniques with purposive sampling and the sample in this study amounted to 30 people. This research was conducted in the Hemodialysis Room of RSUD dr. M Yunus Bengkulu. From hemoglobin examination showed that the sample content results were lower than normal values (Men; 13.5-16 g / dl &; Women; 12-14 g / dl). With low hemoglobin levels (< normal values) where the results are 16 (53%) women and men are 14 (47%) people, while for the age level of 40 – 49 years with the number of repondents 9 (30%) people, ages 50 – 59 years with the number of repondents 10 (33.3%) people, ages 60-69 years with the number of repondents 7 (23.3%) people, while the age of >70 years with the number of repondents 4 (13.3%) people.
