Perceived Discrimination Mediates Racial Differences in Impulsivity Among Adolescents from the ABCD Study
Authors: Fields Christopher , Aksen Damla , Kohler Robert
Published: October 2024

Objective: To investigate whether perceived racial and ethnic discrimination mediates the relationship between race and impulsivity, as measured by delay discounting, among adolescents aged 10–11 years.Methods: Utilizing data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study release 5.1, we analyzed a sample of 3,857 participants who completed the delay discounting task and perceived discrimination measures at the year-one follow-up. Delay discounting was assessed through a hypothetical monetary choice task, with the area under the curve (AUC) serving as the primary measure of impulsivity—lower AUC scores indicate higher impulsivity. Perceived discrimination was measured using an adapted Perceived Discrimination Scale. Linear mixed-effects regression models examined the direct effects of race, socioeconomic factors, age, and gender on impulsivity, as well as the mediating effect of perceived discrimination.Results: Black adolescents exhibited significantly lower AUC scores compared to White adolescents (p < 0.05), indicating higher impulsivity. When perceived discrimination was included in the model, the effect of being Black on impulsivity was no longer significant, suggesting mediation. Perceived discrimination was associated with lower AUC scores (p < 0.05), reflecting greater impulsivity. Males demonstrated higher impulsivity than females (p < 0.001), consistent across models.Conclusion: Perceived racial and ethnic discrimination significantly mediates the relationship between being Black and higher impulsivity in early adolescence. These findings underscore the importance of addressing discrimination to reduce racial disparities in impulsivity and associated risk behaviors. Interventions focusing on both systemic factors contributing to discrimination and enhancing individual coping strategies are crucial for promoting equitable developmental outcomes among minority adolescents.
Alaska's Dense-Graded High-Float Emulsion Surface Treatments
Authors: Saboundjian Steve , McHattie Robert L.
Published: October 2024

Asphalt surface treatment (AST) pavements using high-float (HF) emulsions and dense-graded aggregates have been constructed on Alaska's low-volume roads for more than 20 years. These HF ASTs proved to be relatively inexpensive, were easy to construct, and provided good service for low-volume roads. However, the normally positive economics of these pavements have sometimes been offset by problems during or after construction. It was argued that most problems could be solved if a mix design method was devised to ensure optimum application rates of emulsion and aggregate. This paper presents a standardized laboratory mix design method for HF emulsion and dense-graded aggregates based on simple volumetric calculations. The method accounts specifically for aggregate maximum size, compaction characteristics, moisture content, and air voids. An outline of the design method and an example numerical application are presented, and reasons supporting each element of the design method are discussed. The paper addresses the variables that control the emulsion and aggregate contents of these mixes. New laboratory test methods are proposed for determining aggregate density. The proposed mix design method requires that 15% additional aggregate be added to the design amount determined through voids calculations. The paper also presents information that improves the constructability and long-term performance of HF pavements.
Translating Transportation Data between Linear Referencing Systems of Dissimilar Resolution
Authors: Graettinger Andrew J. , Morrison A. Lane , Parker Steven T. , Forde Susie , Qin Xiao
Published: October 2024

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation uses two linear referencing systems (LRSs) for complete mapping of crashes statewide: the State Trunk Network (STN), which represents only state routes, and the Wisconsin Information System for Local Roads (WISLR), which includes all roads but gives specific detail for local routes. A functional link between the two systems was developed; this link allows data to be translated from the STN, a higher-resolution representation, to the WISLR, a lower-resolution representation. Although data are easily translated from high to low resolution, ambiguities arise when data are moved from low resolution to high resolution. The research presented in this paper identifies common problems associated with translation of data from low to high resolution and provides some rules and guidelines to accommodate these issues.
Systems Thinking for Knowledge Transfer in Organic and Mechanistic Organizations
Authors: Crichton-Sumners Camille , Mansouri Mo , Sauser Brian
Published: October 2024

Research units in state government transportation agencies exist within traditionally hierarchical, or mechanistic, organizations. They manage and conduct research studies and ensure the successful transfer of knowledge through both inter- and intraorganizational relationships and through knowledge transfer activities. These activities may entail the transfer of knowledge at the local, state, federal or international level. Improving knowledge transfer ultimately improves organizational performance. Use of Burns and Stalkers' dualism—mechanistic versus organic management systems—to describe government organizations aids in the recognition of the current condition and in the identification of the characteristics of an environment that will be more conducive to efficient knowledge transfer. This information will help decision makers within these organizations to select the appropriate organizational structure, or processes, to enhance knowledge transfer. The increasing amount of information and growing organizational complexity require a systems thinking approach to identifying opportunities for improvement within these organizations. This paper describes how systems thinking can aid in exploring knowledge transfer within organic and mechanistic state government organizations and offers contributions to the body of knowledge concerning government entities and intentional knowledge transfer.
Distortion of Truth about Islam and Its Reality: Some Reflections
Authors: Muhammad Mumtaz Ali
Published: October 2024

Abstract: Since the beginning of the 20th century, a respectable number of scholars such as Iqbal, Mawdudi, and Qutb argued that Islam is explained in al-Qur’ān with the term Dīn which stands for the way of life and worldview. It, therefore, should not be termed as religion in the contemporary sense. To explain this particularly important aspect of Islam a sizeable number of books have been written. Despite this clarification and the truth and reality of Islam, most people, speakers, preachers, scholars, and authors present Islam as a religion in a limited and dogmatic way. This approach to Islam not only limits the scope and place of but also distorts the truth and reality of Islam. This paper using the method of content analysis explores and explains the true and realistic picture of Islam as it is presented in al-Qur‘ān. For this purpose, the translation of al-Qur’ān rendered by Zafar Ishaq Ansari is used. The main goal of this paper is on one hand to explore the real scope of Islam and on the other, to present it in its true and realistic perspective. The intellectual discussion of this work concludes that Islam should not be taken merely as a religion. Rather, it is more than that. It is the Right Way, which Allah (SWT) revealed to His final Messenger, Muhammad (PBUH).
EUROPEAN PAPER BEES, POLISTES DOMINULA AND POLISTES NIMPHA (CHRIST, 1791) (HYMENOPTERA: VESPIDAE) PATHOGENS PRESENCE AND THEIR POTENTIAL INSECTICIDAL EFFECTS ON HONEYBEES ADULTS OF APIS MELLIFERA CAUCASIA (POLLMANN, 1889)

Published: October 2024

Honeybee (Apis mellifera) is an important element of biodiversity and terrestrial ecosystems. Any pathogenic infection in this beneficial insect can lead to major undesirable disasters. This study investigated the pathogenic bacteria and fungi from Polistes dominula and Polistes nimpha wasps and their potential insecticidal effects on Apis mellifera caucasia. For this purpose, bacteria and fungi were isolated from dead and diseased bees collected from Terme district of Samsun province in Türkiye in May and June 2020. In the study, Granulicatella adiacens, Staphylococcus xylosus, Sphingomonas paucimobilis bacteria and Cryptococcus laurentii and Candida famata fungi were obtained from the internal tissues and organs of Polistes dominula paper wasp adults. Staphylococcus xylosus and Sphingomonas paucimobilis were found to be common bacteria in both bee species. Serratia marcescens and Enterococcus faecalis bacterial species were found to have a very lethal effect on honeybees. Bioassay experiments were performed on the detected fungi, and it was observed that Cryptococcus laurentii and Candida famata fungi species also had lethal effects on honeybees. It has been revealed that entomopathogenic bacteria, which are known to be very effective in biological control against harmful insects, can cause unwanted infections in honeybees.
Macro-Economic Policy Coordination and Macro-Economic Instability in Pakistan
Authors: Ali Sher , Saeed Sawera , Saeed Asma
Published: October 2024

This study is intended to examine the impact of macroeconomic policies on macroeconomic instability in Pakistan. This study used time series data for the period of 1990 to 2022. To deal with the stationarity of the data ADF and PP tests are used which suggest the use of ARDL. The existence of a long-run relationship is confirmed by the Bound test. The impact of fiscal & monetary policy is found to be significant in the long run. The impact of the fiscal policy variable (GEXP) on macroeconomic instability (MI) negatively means that an increase in GEXP (expansionary fiscal policy) leads to a decrease in MI while the impact of monetary policy variable IR (tight monetary policy) is found positive and significant in the long run means that the impact of tight monetary policy leads to increase MI. Similarly, the impact of expansionary fiscal policy on MI is effective but the monetary policy variable is effective in the short run. The impact of domestic investment is found to be negative and significant means that an increase in domestic investment leads to a decrease in MI. Therefore this study suggests that special attention should be paid to fiscal and monetary policies to deal with MI in Pakistan.

Authors: Prajapati Abhilasha , Kumar Rajesh , Maiti Soumitra , Lakhani Rajni , Yadav Amit
Published: October 2024

Foamed concrete, renowned for its lightweight nature and thermal insulating properties, has gained substantial interest in the construction industry. The stability of foamed concrete is directly related to the stability of preformed foam used for making foamed concrete. Foam stability is the prime factor which influences the overall performance and properties of the foamed concrete. Foam stability refers to the ability of the foam to maintain its structure and volume over time. The stability of foamed concrete is greatly impacted by the selection of the foaming agent and the ratio of foaming agent to water (FA/W). Protein based foaming agent (as per ASTM C796/C796M-19) has been used for this study. An excess of water can weaken the foam structure, leading to instability, while inadequate water can lead to issues such as reduced workability and uneven distribution of foam within the mixture. This paper investigates the effect of FA:W ratio on the stability of foam concrete. Three different FA:W ratio i.e. 1:10, 1:20 and 1:30 has been used for this study. Respective slumps to these ratios have also been investigated at different time intervals to check their consistencies. Three mix proportions were used to produce foam concrete of 1000kg/m3 density. Impact of aforementioned FA/W ratios on the properties of foamed concrete (As per; IS 2185 part-4) were discussed in this article.

Authors: Irhebhude Martins E.
Published: October 2024

The population growth of the world is exponential, this makes it imperative that we have an increase in food production. In this light, farmers, industries and researchers are struggling with identifying and classifying food plants. Over the years, there have been challenges that come with identifying fruits manually. It is time-consuming, labour intensive and requires experts to identify fruits because of the similarity in fruit’s leaves (citrus family), shapes, sizes and colour. A computerized detection technique is needed for the classification of fruits. Existing solutions to fruits classifications are majorly based on fruit or leave used as input. A new model using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is proposed for fruits classification. A dataset of 5 classes of fruits and fresh dry leaves plants (Mango, African almond, Guava, Avocado and Cashew) comprising of 1000 images each. The proposed model hyperparameters were: Conv2D layer, activation layer, dense layer, a learning and dropout rates of 0.001 and 0.5 respectively were used for the experiment. Various performances for accuracies of 91%, 97%, 78% and 97% were obtained for proposed model on local dataset, proposed model on benchmark dataset, benchmark model on local dataset and benchmark model on benchmark dataset. The proposed model is robust on both local and benchmark datasets and can be used for effective classification of plants
Localization of Genetic Factors that Determine the Economically-Useful Traits of the PEAR (Pyrus) and Methods of Marker-Assisted Selection
Authors: Pavlenko A. A. , Pikunova A. V.
Published: October 2024

DNA markers are an alternative method for accelerated identification of interested genes and loci at the early stages of ontogenesis, and, consequently, DNA markers are able to intensify the breeding process. This article represents overview of research on the localization of economically useful traits in the pear genome and the development and use of marker-assisted selection (MAS) techniques. At the moment, several traits have been localized in the pear genome, i.e.: resistance to scab European (V. pirina Aderh) and Asian (V. nashicola), black spot (Alternaria alternata (Fr.) Keissler), brown spot (Stemphylium vesicarium), fire blight (Erwinia amylovora), pear psylla (Cacopsylla pyri), pear sawfly (Caliroa cerasi), pear blister mite (Eriophyes pyri), self-incompatibility, dwarf trait. Major genes and loci of quantitative traits (QTLs) of fruits characteristics have also been identified, namely: skin color and rustiness of the fruit, size and weight of the fruit, taste, level of ethylene production, harvest time etc. It should be noted that currently Russian research is limited to the validation and use of MAS methods developed abroad. According to the experience of Japanese scientists, the use of MAS for several key traits has made it possible to triple the efficiency of the breeding process. Despite the currently limited list of MBC methods for pears, the high speed of genomic technologies development promises rapid development of new MAS methods in the future. In combination with new breeding technologies (New Breeding Techniques) based on accelerated flowering, the use of MAS for pears is a promising direction of breeding.

Published: October 2024

Nucleotide sequence polymorphism and haplotypic diversity of the cytochrome b gene were studied in samples of the Laxmann’s Shrew Sorex caecutiens koreni from the populations of the Kolyma River basin and Chukotka. 56 cytb-haplotypes differing among themselves by 87 mutations in 84 sites were found. The cytb-haplotypes of individuals of the subspecies S. c. koreni and S. c. macropygmaeus were shown to belong to the same maternal mtDNA lineage, their monophyletic origin from the same ancestral haplotype Scb1, and the presence of identical cytb-haplotypes in both subspecies. The mutual isolation of the shrew populations in the upper basin of the Kolyma River and Chukotka is shown. The proportion of intrapopulation genetic variability is 95.74%, intergroup variability is 5.74%, and intragroup variability is –1.48%, which reflects a very high level of intrapopulation variability of cytb haplotypes in the studied groups of S. c. koreni, their monophyletic origin, and the genetic unity of the Chukchi samples. The values of molecular diversity indices testify to the stability of populations that have a high value of effective abundance for a long time.

Recently, more and more data have been accumulating indicating the role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the regulation of biological processes in cells, as well as in the mechanisms of cancer development and progression. Aberrant methylation of promoter regions of both protein genes and lncRNA genes can disrupt their expression and functional activity. Using bioinformatics databases, six lncRNA genes (GAS5, HOTAIR, LINC00472, LINC00886, SNHG17 and TUG1) with CpG islands, differentially expressed and presumably hypermethylated in tumors of patients with ovarian cancer (OC) were selected. A statistically significant (p 0.05) increase in the methylation level in tumours was demonstrated in a sample of 93 OC specimens using methylation-specific real-time PCR assay. Moreover, for the genes LINC00472, LINC00886, SNHG17 and TUG1, hypermethylation in OC was detected for the first time. 5 genes (except SNHG17) showed a further increase in methylation levels at a more advanced stage, and 4 genes (except SNHG17 and LINC00886) showed a significant association with metastasis. Using real-time RT-PCR, differential changes in the expression level of the GAS5, HOTAIR, SNHG17 and TUG1 genes and a significant correlation of methylation with expression for the GAS5 gene were shown. Thus, hypermethylation associated with the progression and/or development of OC was detected for six lncRNA genes, which is important for elucidating the epigenetic processes involved in the pathogenesis of OC and can be used as new biomarkers of OC.

Perkawinan merupakan salah satu hal menjadi penting bagi kebanyakan masyarakat di Indonesia. Hal ini dapat dibuktikan berdasarkan data Peradilan Agama Mahkamah Agung pada tahun 2023, data perkara isbat nikah tahun 2020-2022 mengalami peningkatan. Sementara pengajuan dispensasi kawin juga meningkat tajam dari tahun ke tahun. Sejak tahun 2020 hingga 2022 dari 28,57% hingga 36,36%. Sedangkan menurut Badan Pusat Statistik pada tahun yang sama perceraian di Indonesia terus meningkat dari angka 447.743 kasus menjadi 516.344 kasus. Tentunya tidak ada satu pun pasangan suami istri yang menginginkan perceraian dengan alasan bahwa terganggunya stabilitas keuangan yang telah mereka bentuk sejak awal melakukan perkawinan. Di Indonesia beberapa tahun ke belakang ini sering kali ditemukan kasus-kasus perselisihan harta benda yang terjadi dengan status Perkawinan Campuran antara Warga Negara Asing dengan Warga Negara Indonesia untuk menyikapi hal tersebut, Notaris merupakan salah satu pejabat umum yang memiliki kewenangan untuk membuat perjanjian perkawinan sebagai bentuk kesepakatan antara suami dan istri yang tidak berkehendak adanya percampuran harta mereka masing-masing menjadi harta bersama. Adapun dalam pelaksanaan perjanjian perkawinan yang dibuat oleh pejabat umum yakni Notaris harus memperhatikan kewenangannya dalam pembuatan perjanjian perkawinan sehingga dapat menciptakan kepastian hukum untuk para pihak yang membuatnya.
Penerapan Asas Publisitas Atas Terbitnya Perjanjian Perkawinan yang Dibuat Setelah Perkawinan Berlangsung

Perjanjian perkawinan dewasa ini telah banyak muncul dinamika permasalahan baru, terlebih pasca Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi Nomor 69/PUU-XIII/2015 yang memberikan tafsir dan makna berbeda terhadap Pasal 29 ayat (1), ayat (2), ayat (4) Undang-Undang Nomor 1 Tahun 1974 tentang Perkawinan sebagaimana telah diubah oleh Undang-Undang Nomor 16 Tahun 2019 tentang Perubahan atas Undang-undang Nomor 1 Tahun 1974 tentang Perkawinan (selanjutnya disebut UU Perkawinan dan UU Perkawinan Baru). Norma hukum dalam perjanjian perkawinan agar mengikat pihak ketiga harus didaftarkan atau dicatatkan di Kantor Pencatatan Sipil atau KUA. Sejalan dengan ketentuan Pasal 29 ayat (1) UU Perkawinan, perjanjian perkawinan disahkan oleh pegawai pencatat perkawinan. Kata “disahkan” dalam klausula tersebut bermakna bahwa perjanjian perkawinan tersebut harus “dicatat”, dan jika perjanjian perkawinan tersebut tidak dicatat maka perjanjian perkawinan tersebut tidak menimbulkan akibat hukum bagi pihak ketiga. Perjanjian perkawinan sebaiknya segera didaftarkan kepada pegawai pencatat perkawinan untuk memenuhi asas publisitas. Namun, pada kenyataannya banyak pasangan suami istri yang tidak segera mencatatkan perjanjian perkawinan mereka kepada pegawai pencatat perkawinan bahkan terdapat perjanjian perkawinan yang baru didaftarkan kepada pegawai pencatat perkawinan pada saat proses perceraian berlangsung oleh salah satu pihak saja. Berdasarkan uraian singkat diatas, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis bagaimana keabsahan perjanjian perkawinan Postnuptial Agreement yang tidak dicatatkan di Kantor Pencatatan Sipil serta akibat hukum perjanjian perkawinan Postnuptial Agreement yang didaftarkan kepada Pegawai Pencatat Perkawinan pada saat proses perceraian terhadap harta bersama.

Dalam beberapa tahun terakhir, penelitian tentang intervensi Metaphorical Thinking (MT) dalam pendidikan matematika semakin mendapat perhatian. Namun, penelitian terbatas telah meneliti bagaimana intervensi MT, ketika diintegrasikan dengan model pembelajaran yang menantang, dapat meningkatkan Kemampuan Penalaran Matematis (MRA) siswa. Untuk mengatasi kesenjangan ini, penelitian kuasi-eksperimental dengan menggunakan desain kelompok kontrol posttest-only dilakukan terhadap 50 siswa di SMP Widya Bhakti Ruteng, NTT, Indonesia. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh intervensi MT dalam lingkungan Pembelajaran Berbasis Masalah (PBL) terhadap MRA. Data dikumpulkan melalui tes PMA yang terdiri dari lima soal, dan hasilnya dianalisis menggunakan uji t setelah melakukan analisis prasyarat. Temuannya menunjukkan bahwa siswa yang menerima intervensi MT dikombinasikan dengan PBL menunjukkan MRA yang jauh lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan mereka yang tidak menerima intervensi MT. Hasil ini menggarisbawahi potensi manfaat dari mengintegrasikan intervensi MT dengan pendekatan pedagogi menantang lainnya.
In recent years, research on Metaphorical Thinking (MT) interventions in mathematics education has gained increasing attention. However, limited studies have examined how MT interventions, when integrated with challenging instructional models, can enhance students' Mathematical Reasoning Ability (MRA). To address this gap, a quasi-experimental study utilizing a posttest-only control group design was conducted with 50 students at SMP Widya Bhakti Ruteng, NTT, Indonesia. The study aimed to analyze the effects of MT interventions in a Problem-Based Learning (PBL) environment on MRA. Data were collected through a PMA test consisting of five questions, and the results were analyzed using a t-test after performing a prerequisite analysis. The findings revealed that students who received MT interventions combined with PBL demonstrated significantly higher MRA compared to those who did not receive MT interventions. These results underscore the potential benefits of integrating MT interventions with other challenging pedagogical approaches.
