Published: November 2023

Adolescence, the time of life when people are changing and maturing between childhood and maturity. Adolescents are defined by the World Health Organization as those between the ages of 10 and 19. However, adolescence is sometimes incorrectly and narrowly associated with puberty and the physical changes that lead to reproductive maturity in many civilizations. Adolescence is not only associated with physical changes but also with developmental shifts in the individual's mind, social life, and moral code in certain cultures. The term "adolescence" is essentially equal to "teens" in these cultures, referring to the time between the ages of 12 and 20. Anorexia nervosa is a psychological disorder characterized by self-starvation and medically low body weight. Research indicates that anorexia nervosa develops through complex interaction among social, psychological and biological risk factors.

Authors: Ahmad Muh. Ramli , Harahap Muh. Wirawan
Published: November 2023

Konsep penggunaan Enhanced Recovery After Caesarean Section (ERACS) pada seksio sesarea (SC) semakin berkembang sehingga pentingnya analgesia postoperatif untuk memastikan pemulihan optimal serta prognosis yang baik terkait fungsi dan komplikasi. Data terbaru menunjukkan bahwa penatalaksanaan nyeri yang buruk serta pengalaman nyeri yang “tidak menyenangkan” dihubungkan komplikasi postoperatif, termasuk nyeri pasca SC dapat mempengaruhi pemulihan pascaoperasi dan kepuasan pasien serta keberhasilan menyusui dan ikatan ibu-anak. Selain itu, terapi nyeri akut suboptimal dapat meningkatkan risiko terjadinya nyeri postoperatif kronik. Teknik baru telah dikembangkan untuk mengatasi nyeri setelah operasi SC, seperti blok quadratus lumborum, anestesi lokal lepas lambat, dan pendekatan nonfarmakologis. Selain itu, dalam dekade terakhir, perhatian telah bergeser untuk mengurangi penggunaan opioid dan menerapkan protokol untuk pemulihan yang lebih baik setelah operasi SC. Oleh karena itu, dibutuhkan tinjauan sistematis terbaru tentang intervensi analgesik untuk manajemen nyeri setelah operasi SC elektif dilakukan dengan menggunakan anestesi neuraksial. Selain itu, dianggap perlu untuk menilai kembali rekomendasi untuk menyelaraskannya dengan pendekatan Procedure-Speciific Pain Management (PROSPECT) yang diperbarui yang mempertimbangkan relevansi klinis dan efektivitas klinis saat ini dengan menyeimbangkan invasi dari intervensi analgesik dan tingkat nyeri setelah operasi SC, serta menyeimbangkan efikasi dan efek samping.

Authors: Anversha A. T. , Ramalingam V.
Published: November 2023

Aim: Basketball necessitates a holistic approach to player development, encompassing both skill and physicality, with a critical emphasis on understanding these requirements due to its complex tactics. Plyometric training’s potential in sport performance lacks comprehensive research. This systematic review, guided by PRISMA guidelines, aims to analyse diverse range of literature concerning healthy athletes, investigating its significance on functional performance and bone mineral density in basketball players of different age groups (pre-teen, adolescent, and young adult).

Methods: The study conducted electronic searches in databases like PubMed, ScienceDirect, and ResearchGate, supplemented with manual reference searches, covering the period from 2013 to June 2023. Initially, 783 items were identified. Inclusion criteria involved English-language publications focusing on basketball players aged 8 to 28 years, assessing plyometric training’s effect on functional performance with quantitative measurements. Screening began with titles and abstracts, followed by full-text evaluation to ensure eligibility.

Results: A database search yielded 26 peer-reviewed articles, primarily randomized controlled trials, showing significant functional improvements through plyometric training (4-36 weeks, 2-3 times weekly). Assessments covered explosive leg power, agility, sprinting, muscle strength, and bone density. Male participants dominated, but female and mixed-gender groups were included. Results consistently highlighted plyometric training’s positive impact with statistical significance.

Conclusion: This review provides evidence that plyometric training improves agility, sprinting ability, leg power, basketball skills as well as BMD across different age groups of players. It establishes plyometrics as effective for boosting on-court performance. Integrating plyometric training holds great promise in advancing athlete success in basketball.

Genomic Approaches to Disease Resistance in Livestock
Authors: Zubby Charles
Published: November 2023

Purpose: The main objective of this study was to explore the use of genomics and selective breeding to enhance disease resistance in livestock populations.

Methodology: The study adopted a desktop research methodology. Desk research refers to secondary data or that which can be collected without fieldwork. Desk research is basically involved in collecting data from existing resources hence it is often considered a low cost technique as compared to field research, as the main cost is involved in executive’s time, telephone charges and directories. Thus, the study relied on already published studies, reports and statistics. This secondary data was easily accessed through the online journals and library.

Findings: The findings revealed that there exists a contextual and methodological gap relating to genomic approaches to disease resistance in livestock. Preliminary empirical review revealed that genomic approaches to disease resistance in livestock have emerged as powerful tools in the field of animal breeding and management. Over the past few years, research and empirical studies have consistently demonstrated the immense potential of genomics to revolutionize the way we address disease challenges in livestock populations. These approaches have allowed for delving deep into the genetic makeup of animals, identifying specific markers and genetic traits associated with disease resistance. By doing so, we can now make more informed breeding decisions, selecting animals with superior resistance profiles and improving overall herd or flock health.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The theory of Evolution by Natural Selection, Quantitative Genetics theory and the Genomic Selection theory may be used to anchor future studies on genomic approaches in disease resistance. The study made the following recommendations: implementing genomic selection programs, promoting collaborative research, focusing on sustainable breeding practices, enhancing biosecurity measure, investing in genomic education and training and monitoring long term impacts.

Authors: Mashauri Mumbere Malonga , Muthambuko John Mumbere
Published: November 2023

Purpose: This study gives an authentic sense to the use of CLIL as teachers experience it at UCBC. The central goal of the study is to describe the experience of permanent, visiting, international and ESOL teachers about the use of CLIL techniques in the process of developing UCBC students’ English competences. The study puts much focus on teachers’ perceptions on their professional development experiences on CLIL pedagogy in their teaching career.

Methodology: The paradigm in which this study is situated is interpretivist and it used a qualitative study design. In fact, the study employed the descriptive approach to explore the perception of ESOL and content teachers regarding CLIL as a teaching technique at UCBC. Also, the descriptive approach helped in understanding how teachers are applying the CLIL technique and how they are adjusting themselves to the bilingual education practice.

Findings: The result of the study showed that (1) teachers did not view themselves as language teachers; they did not know how they could design language objectives in order to incorporate the language items in their English content courses, (2) teachers did not understand how bilingual education pedagogy worked. Many of them did not know academic English and those who did, did not use English to teach their content courses, (3) teachers were prepared for the use of CLIL Pedagogy, but they were reluctant to implement it, (4) UCBC had no accountability policy related to using English to teach content. No one held them accountable for their students’ content learning or language development, (5) teachers did not own the CLIL pedagogy and thought the development of students' English is the work of the English art department alone.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Policy and Practice: The findings will put all the bilingual education stakeholders before their responsibility in the process of making UCBC a true and excellent bilingual academic institution. The authors recommended that UCBC content teachers be provided with a robust bilingual education training and a robust accountability policy. Also, department chairs should implement different decisions taken out of professional development sessions, and they should implement the bilingual education plan already put in place by the bilingual education coaches. Furthermore, UCBC bilingual education program should have strong and achievable outcomes/goals, and/or objectives for each department, and for each class including first undergraduate through fourth.
«Gençliğe Doğru Öğütler – Юности Честное Зерцало» Adlı Rus Edebi Eserinde Dilin Etkileyici Araçlarının Dilbilgisel ve Semantik Değerlendirmesi
Authors: BAK Hadi
Published: November 2023

«Gençliğe doğru öğütler - юности честное зерцало» (1717) adlı eser 1. Petro'nun talimatıyla Rusya'da laik gençliğin yetiştirilmesi ve eğitimi hakkında bir el kitabı şeklinde yayınlanmıştır. Eserin tam yazarı hakkında bilgi bulunmamasıyla berabar, birkaç yazar tarafından kaleme alındığı düşünülmektedir. Eser; görgü ve nezaket kurallarını içeren pedagojik bir söylemin örneği olduğu bilinmektedir. Kitap gençlere hitap etmekte, toplumdaki davranış ve görgü kurallarını çok ayrıntılı bir şekilde özetleyerek bir bakıma gençler için yaşam rehberliği sunan bir yapıt özelliği taşımaktadır. Bu bağlamda eserde öğretici ve tavsiye niteliğinde pek çok yapı mevcuttur.

Eserin didaktik bir uslüp ile yazılması nedeniyle pek çok dilsel araç ve ifade şekillerinin olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Eserde, öğretici ifadelerin oluşturulmasındaki en önemli nokta, fiilin zorunlu durumlarını ifade etmekte ortaya çıkan zorunluluklardır. Bu durumda yazar, eylemin yerine getirilmesinin zorunlu olduğu anlamını veren yardımcı belirteçleri içeren predikatif (yüklemlilik) yapılara başvurmaktadır. Yazar, dolaylı yoldan zorunluluğu ifade eden konuşma eylemlerini kullanmaktadır. Böylece asıl söylenmek istenenlerin (niyetlerin) sözelleştirilmesinin monotonluğundan kaçınmayı, dolayısıyla metni etkili hale getirmeyi mümkün kılmaktadır. Daha çarpıcı ve etkileyici kelimeler ile okuyucu etki altına alınmak istenmektedir. Yazar, hedef veya dinleyici kitle üzerindeki etkiyi artırmak için değerlendirme ifadeleri, lakaplar (takma isimler), karşılaştırmalar gibi ek dilsel araçları da sıklıkla kullanmaktadır. Yazar, iletişimin etkisini arttırmak için otoriteye karşı itiraz etmede farklı konuşma taktiklerine başvurmaktadır. Bahsi geçen itiraz; daha düşük bir yasal otoriteden daha yüksek bir yasal otoriteye belirli kilise meseleleriyle ilgili kararların yeniden gözden geçirilmesi talepleri olan apellyartsiyadır. Öncelikle, Kutsal Yazıların içtihat metinleri, antik çağın ünlü düşünürlerinin, şairlerin, filozofların otoritesinin yanı sıra evrensel dildeki olayların ve eylemlerin istikrarlı bir şekilde değerlendirilmesini sağlayan sözler, aforizmalar ve yazarın talimatlarına inkar edilemez bir karakter veren sözlere itirazlar mevcut olup geleneklere ve kilise otoritesine olan itiraz ve muhalefet söz konusudur. Bu çalışmada, adı geçen eserde, okuyucuyu etkilemek için kullanılan dil araçlarının anlambilimsel ve dilbilgisel değerlendirmleri, sınıflandırma ve analiz yöntemleri ile ele alınacaktır.

As our society becomes more interconnected and multicultural, it is imperative we develop and assess intercultural competence among future professionals in agricultural education and communications. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the effect of intercultural competence training on students’ intercultural competence in a teaching methods course. Students (N = 27) in this experimental design study were randomly assigned to a treatment or control group, where the treatment group members completed the Intercultural Development Inventory and underwent intercultural competence training. Results showed that students in the treatment group scored low in intercultural competence and did not mention social identity factors as frequently as the control group. Additionally, females mentioned more social identity factors than males. Recommendations from the study were that highimpact pedagogical practices should be implemented to teach intercultural competence, longitudinal studies should be used to further assess intercultural competence development over time, and research should examine the role of gender in intercultural competence development.

Iran’s Foreign Policy in the Post-Soviet Era
Authors: Hunter Shireen T.
Published: November 2023

A comprehensive exploration of postrevolution Iranian foreign policy analyzes the country's relations with key nations and regions and the impact of both Iran's domestic situation and the developing global system.

Iran's Foreign Policy in the Post-Soviet Era: Resisting the New International Order provides the first truly comprehensive, in-depth survey of Iranian foreign policy, issue by issue and country by country, since the Islamic Revolution. To help readers understand both the what and the why of Iran's role in the world and formulate useful responses to that role, the author provides a detailed analysis of Iranian foreign policy in all its dimensions.

The first part of the book places Iranian actions, particularly its relations with the United States and other key players, within the context of the emerging international system, while also showing how domestic developments impact foreign policy. The second part surveys Iranian relations with specific actors, notably the United States and Russia, and with key regions, including Europe, Central Asia, the Arab world, Latin America, and Africa. Providing an antidote to existing preconceptions, this incisive analysis lays an analytically sound basis for shaping policies toward Iran—policies with potentially high payoff in terms of regional security and stability.
Cinema, Suffering and Psychoanalysis
Authors: Stephenson Laura
Published: November 2023

Cinema, Suffering and Psychoanalysis explores psychological disorder as common to the human condition using a unique three-angled approach: psychoanalysis recognises the inherent suffering encountered by each subject due to developmental phases; psychology applies specific categorisation to how this suffering manifests; cinema depicts suffering through a combination of video and aural elements.

Functioning as a culturally reflexive medium, the six feature films analysed, including Black Swan (2010) and The Machinist (2004), represent some of the most common psychological disorders and lived experiences of the contemporary era. This book enters unchartered terrain in cinema scholarship by combining clinical psychology’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual Five (DSM-V) to organise and diagnose each character, and psychoanalysis to track the origin, mechanism and affect of the psychological disorder within the narrative trajectory of each film. Lacan’s theories on the infantile mirror phase, the Imaginary, and the Symbolic, Žižek’s theories on the Real, the big Other and the Event, and Kristeva’s theories on abjection and melancholia work in combination with the DSM’s classification of symptoms to interpret six contemporary pieces of cinema.

By taking into consideration that origin, mechanism, affect and symptomatology are part of an interconnected group, this book explores psychological disorder as part of the human condition, something which contributes to and informs personal identity. More specifically, this research refutes the notion that psychological disorder and psychological health exist as a binary, instead recognising that what has traditionally been pathologised, may instead be viewed as variations on human identity.
Seeing the City Digitally

This book explores what’s happening to ways of seeing urban spaces in the contemporary moment, when so many of the technologies through which cities are visualised are digital. Cities have always been pictured, in many media and for many different purposes. This edited collection explores how that picturing is changing in an era of digital visual culture. Analogue visual technologies like film cameras were understood as creating some sort of a trace of the real city. Digital visual technologies, in contrast, harvest and process digital data to create images that are constantly refreshed, modified and circulated. Each of the chapters in this volume examines a different example of how this processual visuality is reconfiguring the spatial and temporal organisation of urban life.

This book addresses the shifting status of the humanities through a national case study spanning two centuries. The societal function of the humanities is considered from the flexible perspective of knowledge politics in order to historicize notions of impact and intellectual organization that tend to be taken for granted. The focus on modern Sweden enables an extended but still empirically coherent historical analysis, inviting critical comparisons with the growing literature on the history of the humanities from around the world. In the Swedish case, the humanities were instrumental to the construction of modern societal institutions, political movements, and professional education in the second half of the 19th century, while in the 20th century, the sense of future-making shifted towards science and medicine, and later technology and economy. The very rationale of the humanities was thus put under pressure as their social contract required novel negotiations. Their state and connections to society were nevertheless of a complex and ambiguous character, as is demonstrated by this volume whose contributions explore the many faces and places of the modern humanities.

Mineral licks are important for animals, especially wildlife, to nourish their diets, not only in terms of supporting their mineral intake deficiencies but also in regulating toxins in their bodies. This study characterised the geochemical properties of salt licks located in Segaliud Lokan Forest Reserve (SLFR). Soil samples were collected from five selected salt licks in the study area. The physico-chemical results show that the pH of the salt-lick soil varied from slightly acidic to slightly alkaline. The percentage of moisture content and organic matter ranges from 25.22% to 44.78% and 0.95% to 7.83, respectively. The electrical conductivity reading ranges from 48.59 μS/cm to 260.88 μS/cm. The soil samples were digested using aqua regia and analysed using inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The concentrations of Ca (1101.92 mg/kg–11551.64 mg/kg), K (910.27 mg/kg–2355.41 mg/kg), Na (106.36 mg/kg–727.34 mg/kg), and Mg (1442.14 mg/kg–5305.13 mg/kg) in the five salt licks varied considerably and were higher than in the control soil samples. High chemical concentrations in salt licks are due to the pH of soils, which ranges from slightly acidic to slightly alkaline.

This study was carried out to understand the relationship between personality characteristics differences and entrepreneurial intention among Sabah Bumiputera and Chinese entrepreneurs in Tawau, Sabah. In Malaysia, especially the Chinese is known to be very successful in business. They are well-known for their business skills which brought success to most of them and for sustaining their business endeavour. Thus, a study about the factors of personality characteristics such as locus of control, need for achievement, and risk-taking propensity influencing entrepreneurial intention was undertaken. Quantitative method was used in this study. A survey was conducted by distributing questionnaire to 375 Sabah Bumiputera and Chinese entrepreneurs within the town of Tawau. The data collected were analyzed using correlation and t-test analysis. The subsequent results showed that there was high entrepreneurial intention among Sabah Bumiputera and Chinese entrepreneurs in Tawau. In addition, there were personality characteristics differences such as locus of control, need for achievement and risk-taking propensity on entrepreneurial intention among Sabah Bumiputera and Chinese entrepreneurs in Tawau.

AN EMPIRICAL ANALYSIS OF EDUCATION EXPENDITURE, HEALTH CARE EXPENDITURE AND ECONOMIC GROWTH IN MALAYSIA
Authors: SING YUN WONG , YUSOFF REMALI
Published: November 2023

ABSTRACT

This paper aims to empirically analyze the relationship between the education expenditure, health care expenditure and economic growth in Malaysia over the period of 1980 to 2012. The main interest of this study will be to review and address the mixed results presented by past researches regarding the relationship between education and health care expenditure towards economic growth. The relationship between the variables will be empirically examined for both the short-run and long-run by employing the Johansen Co-integration Technique and Vector Error Correction Model (VECM). The existence of a long run relationship between public education spending, health care expenditure and economic growth was well indicated. It was therefore ascertained that the public spending on education and healthcare sectors are very much a long-run phenomenon as it only generates a return over an extended period of time.
REVISITING LONG-RUN DYNAMICS OF THE DETERMINANTS OF PUBLIC EDUCATION EXPENDITURE IN MALAYSIA

ABSTRACT

This main purpose of this paper is to revisit the long run dynamics on Malaysiaâ€™s public education expenditure determinants during the period of 1982 to 2016. This study will also attempt to discuss some of the relevant theories that are able to explain and characterized the pattern of Malaysiaâ€™s public education expenditure. A relatively recent developed estimation technique, ARDL bound testing was employed to estimate the long run relationship between public education expenditure and its determinants. The results based on the ARDL bound testing approach concluded that a stable, long-run co-integrated relationship exists between public education expenditure and its determinants: real gross domestic product (GDP), unemployment rate (UNEM), inflation rate (INF) and working age population (POP2). Furthermore, the result highlighted the relevance and suitability of Keynesian Counter Cyclical theory, Economic-Demography theory and Peacock-Wiseman in explaining the pattern of Malaysiaâ€™s public education expenditure. In addition, bilateral causality was found between public education expenditure and real GDP. Similarly, a two-way causal relationship was also found between tax revenue and public education spending. Finally, this study suggests that policymakers should pay more attention to the economic situations and the demands from society when formulating future policies or allocations.
