Texas Literacy Collaborative for Educator Preparation: A Faculty-Led Initiative for Preparing Teachers of Reading
Authors: Grote-Garcia Stephanie , Pletcher Bethanie
Published: October 2023

House Bill 3 requires individuals seeking certification to teach grades kindergarten through six to pass a Science of Teaching Reading (STR) exam. Texas educator preparation programs are revamping coursework to prepare candidates to pass this exam, and, more importantly, help them to provide the #heartwork needed to support young readers. Resulting from that work, two university faculty members initiated the Texas Literacy Collaborative for Educator Preparation (TXLCEP)—a state-wide faculty-led initiative for preparing teachers of reading. This article discusses how TXLCEP was created, illustrates what to expect at a TXLCEP session, and explains how to become a member of TXLCEP.

Authors: Koltonski Summer , Xu Tingting
Published: October 2023

Classroom management is a leading challenge for teachers. Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) strategies can improve classroom management, however, there is a lack of research on teaching ABA skills. One approach to teaching new skills is Project Based Learning (PBL). Using a PBL format, this study implemented a Behavior Change Project where participants completed a project that incorporated ABA strategies. Pre- and post-assessments showed positive increases, indicating participants gained a better knowledge about ABA and classroom management strategies. Results indicate participants felt more comfortable implementing ABA strategies and designing data collection procedures. In addition, this project helped participants increase professional skills.

Essential Goods and Services Needs Among the B40 In the Klang Valley During The COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Ahmad Mohd Nazmi , Mufdhiati Mufdhiati , Selvaratnam Doris Padmini
Published: October 2023

The COVID-19 pandemic created chaos and conflicts in society as there was a disruption in the social and economic spheres of life globally and locally. The pandemic led to the loss of limited economic resources needed to meet the family's daily demands due to job loss, temporary layoffs, or other circumstances. This study intends to determine the importance of necessities among the B40 group in Malaysia's Klang Valley. The study also explored the importance and relationship between essential goods and services during the pandemic. The information came from a survey given to the Klang Valley's B40 group utilizing Facebook (FB) social media and FB Ads. The data were compiled from 363 respondents and summarised using the cross-sectional survey sampling method. The study focuses on the B40 group as Malaysia's disadvantaged, particularly in obtaining essential products and services due to their vulnerability. Several statistical tests investigate this. Spearman's Rank Correlation Coefficient test analyzes the descriptive statistics analysis. The factors of food, healthcare, shelter, transportation, and formal education have both positive and negative connections with the demographic variables. The studies' findings revealed that all demographic parameters had positive and negative connections, demonstrating that the B40 Group in the Klang Valley needs all essentials. According to the analysis's findings, 94% of respondents concur that food should take precedence during the pandemic. A majority of respondents (92%) think that healthcare (91%), shelter, and (84%) formal education is the essential goods and services. The most important food is rice, followed by vegetables, meat, milk for children, and other food categories. Vaccines are the highest priority among healthcare products and services, followed by masks and medications.Additionally, many members of the B40 group have experienced decreased income and possibly job losses due to the installation of movement order control (MCO) during the epidemic. As a result, despite being supported by government aid, the household's income is insufficient to meet its demands. Therefore, to efficiently channel aid to those in need, the government still needs to increase the distribution of goods and services based on priorities. According to the study's conclusions, to ensure that everyone has access to their needs, especially in times of crisis, comprehensive, precise data on homes and the availability of necessary commodities and services must be put in place digitally in the future.

Authors: Nor Zaidi Farah Lynn Amira , Jamaludin Mohammad Aizat , Tukiran Nur Azira
Published: October 2023

This research aims to study the perception of counterfeit cosmetics among Muslim consumers in Putrajaya. This study aims to identify whether demographic backgrounds, especially age, gender, and income level, show a significant difference in the perception of counterfeit cosmetic products among Muslim consumers in Putrajaya. In addition, this study also identifies whether religiosity and brand consciousness show a significant difference in the perception of counterfeit cosmetic products among Muslim consumers in Putrajaya. Two hundred seventy-seven questionnaires were collected from Muslim consumers living in Putrajaya using the convenience sampling method, which was then analyzed using SPSS software. The study’s findings showed that age, level of income, and brand consciousness have a significant relationship with the perception of Muslim consumers in Putrajaya towards counterfeit cosmetics. Meanwhile, the findings also showed that there is no statistical difference between gender and religiosity towards the perception of Muslim consumers on counterfeit cosmetics in Putrajaya. This study contributes to expanding future works of literature of research in the Halal cosmetics area and provides insight to the authorities on the perception of Muslim consumers towards counterfeit cosmetic products, which in turn, helps the authorities further strengthen the administration of the halal cosmetic industry.
The ICT Use by Senior Entrepreneurs
Authors: Muhamad Marlina , Abd Razak Fariza Hanis , Haron Haryani
Published: October 2023

Senior entrepreneurs need help using ICT due to their limited technical skills, but this can be addressed by providing them with simple, familiar, recognizable, and flexible ICT. Previous studies have shown that social media, particularly Facebook, is widely used by entrepreneurs. With the growing aging population worldwide, acknowledging and leveraging the potential of senior entrepreneurs can lead to a more diverse and inclusive consumer landscape. This qualitative study used the semi-structured interview to explore the scenario of senior entrepreneurship, which examined their motivations from push and pull motivation and senior entrepreneurship activities. Ten participants were interviewed, revealing that social media platforms like Facebook and WhatsApp are used for marketing and communication. The study sheds light on the ICTs used by senior entrepreneurs to enhance their business efficiency and sustainability. While social media adoption is helpful, further research is still needed since intrinsic motivations dominate their primary motives.
Understanding Halal Chicken Consumers: Extended Theory of Planned Behavior and Clustering Approach
Authors: Harwati Harwati , Asih Anna Maria Sri , Sopha Bertha Maya
Published: October 2023

This study aimed to segment consumers and explored the factors that affect consumer awareness of halal chicken in Indonesia. The extended theory of planned behavior was adopted to determine the clustering variables, such as demographics, consumption patterns, knowledge, attitude, intention, and actual action. 1185 respondents in Yogyakarta province, Indonesia, participated in the stratified random sampling. The K-means algorithm classified halal chicken consumers into three groups: “credence consumers” who have halal integrity (44%), “moderate consumers” who are rational in their purchasing (21%), and “apathetic consumers” who seem to lack knowledge and enthusiasm for implementing halal principles (35%). An indepth profiling evaluation of the consumers’ characteristics revealed that in all clusters, religious belief showed to influence willingness to pay (WTP) for halal chicken. The result also revealed that higher consumer income levels do not necessarily lead to a commensurate increase in WTP.

Authors:   Department of Languages and Cultures, BNU-HKBU United International College, Zhuhai City, Guangdong, China, zihangconnor019@gmail.com, Wei Zihang
Published: October 2023

This paper employs a new historicist approach to analyze Yiyun Li's short story “Extra” from her collection A Thousand Years of Good Prayers, examining the impact of Chinese Reform and Opening-up on marginalized communities. Through the technique of undoing language, Li deconstructs historical events and narratives, thereby delaying the attainment of ultimate truth. By recounting the story of Granny Lin, a factory worker who was laid off, Li sheds light on the challenges faced by marginalized communities during China's Reform and Opening-up period.Ultimately,“Extra” is a poignant and thought-provoking work that illuminates the inherent complexities in both history and human experience.

‘The Wise Let the Sword Rest, but not Rust’: Celebrating an Armed Peace on a Civic Guard Portrait
Authors: van der Molen Tom
Published: October 2023

Amsterdam civic guards are posing as armed keepers of peace and order on Govert Flinck’s Company of Captain Joan Huydecoper and Lieutenant Frans Oetgens van Waveren from 1648-50. That peace and order was deeply rooted in self-interest and conceived by them as a prerequisite for the arts. This deliberate portrayal of the men as peacekeepers actively silences the fact that they also participated in trade wars and colonial activities and/or profited of them, either directly or indirectly. In depicting these men in this way Flinck addressed to their needs as well as his own. The painting proved a very important step in the course of his successful career. Flinck – and other artists from the 17th century – played their part in immortalizing the 17th century in Amsterdam as a peaceful and prosperous ‘golden age’. The stories of war and conflict meanwhile were at the same time effectively silenced by the same people that profited of them.

A Report on the C-E Translation of Running Like Wind (Excerpts) Based on Reception Aesthetics
Authors: Zhu Yahui , Qing Ziye
Published: October 2023

This is a report on Chinese-English translation. The source text is selected from the children’s literature Running Like Wind by Deng Xiangzi, a Hunan children’s literature writer. There is no English translation of this book yet. The book tells the life experience of the fifth-grade girl Juduo in her grandmother’s hometown, Hongfengping. It depicts Juduo’s kindness and diligency, guiding children to find the truth of life. Under the guidance of Reception Aesthetics, this translator fully considers children’s mind, thought and reception level. The translation keeps the subjectivity of target readers, meeting their horizon of expectation, and balancing the indeterminacy and vacancy of text meaning. The difficulties in the translation are discussed in case analysis from three levels of vocabulary, sentence and rhetoric, which aims to provide certain reference for the translation of similar children’s literature.

TIKTOK SHOP: CONSUMER CULTURE TRANSFORMATION IN THE ERA OF SOCIAL MEDIA
Authors: Prasetyorini Ema , Suprajang Sandi Eka
Published: October 2023

Background. The presence of social media has transformed human communication and interaction patterns. Communication typically occurred through face-to-face interactions. However, in the modern era, thanks to technological advancements, communication can take place without the need for physical meetings.
Research Purpose. This research aims to analyze changes in consumer culture in the context of TikTok Shop, a social media-based video platform connecting users to virtual stores, particularly among millennial female students in the Blitar Raya area.
Research Method. This study employs a qualitative descriptive method. Data collection is carried out through unstructured interviews using purposive sampling. This research was conducted on students in the Blitar Raya area using sample selection criteria. The data analysis in this research is conducted using scaling measurement.
Findings. Consumption patterns on the TikTok Shop social media platform include the intensity of watching live streaming and short videos containing product reviews from buyers. Millennial students in Blitar tend to consider online shopping as an effective and efficient method. They trust the authenticity of products more because promotions on the TikTok Shop social media platform create the impression that they can see the products as if in a physical store.
Conclusion. Through this research, it is hoped that society can become more aware of the influence of social media on consumer behavior, avoiding falling into false consciousness and resisting the allure of advertising. Furthermore, the role of capitalism in fostering consumer behavior by blurring the line between wants and needs should also be given attention.

Published: October 2023

Com o surgimento do Ministério do Turismo, em 2003, houve a implementação do Programa Nacional de Regionalização do Turismo (PRT), que busca fortalecer e desenvolver o turismo regional e descentralizado em todo o território brasileiro. Passados mais de vinte anos da implementação do programa em Mato Grosso do Sul, surgiu a necessidade de saber como está o desenvolvimento do Programa no estado. Desta forma, o objetivo da pesquisa foi avaliar como evoluiu a descentralização dos recursos nas diferentes regiões turísticas ao longo da vigência do programa. Os dados utilizados foram retirados da plataforma Portal da Transparência, referente ao período de 2003 a 2020. A pesquisa concentrou-se nos municípios que constituem as oito Regiões Turísticas, além de um conjunto de municípios que não integram o Mapa, mas que receberam recursos. Dentre os principais resultados encontrados, estão as grandes concentrações de recursos intra e inter-regional, chamando atenção para a capital do estado. Outro fato importante, é como o grupo de municípios não integrantes do Mapa recebeu investimentos, apresentando inconsistência com as diretrizes da política federal e enfraquecendo o propósito das Instâncias de Governança Regionais.
Hukuman Mati Bagi Murtad Perspektif Syekh Ali Jum'ah
Authors: Al Ayyubi M. Sholahuddin , Aprilia Try Heni
Published: October 2023

The existence of Islam as a religion that is clean from all forms of coercion, including embracing religion, is shaken by the concept of fiqh which punishes death for apostasy. In addition, the law is claimed as part of the ijma 'ulama. This journal attempts to unravel the death penalty polemic through the approach brought by Shaykh Ali Jumah. The research model used in this study is a literature review through a qualitative approach. The results of this study indicate that the death penalty for apostasy is not actually based on the person's attitude of choosing to leave Islam. However, there are other attitudes that carry the consequence of death, namely because of ḥirabah (fighting Muslims) and/or betrayal of Islam (mufāriq lil jamā'ah). The claim of ijmaat in this case deserves to be doubted if one sees the motive for leaving Islam just because of disbelief. Because the two cases carried out by Rasulullah SAW. ever ordered his companions to kill the perpetrators of apostasy not solely for the motive of kufr. Rather, because there is a form of betrayal in that case. In addition, the ijma' claim regarding the consequences of death for apostates is strongly suspected of applying the pattern of saddan li al-dzariah or saddan li al-bab. This is meant to close the door on the opportunity for religion to be harmed by apostates.
The need to clarify the understanding of the category of public-private partnership in domestic legislation
Authors: Makarov Ivan Nikolaevich , Shelud'ko Artem Sergeevich , Drobot Elena Valer'evna
Published: October 2023

The subject of the study is public-private partnership as a legal category. It should be noted that the introduction of the PPP system into the Russian legal system (practice) has become one of the most important decisions taken by the government to stimulate the economic growth of the country. The authors analyze the essence and interpretation of public-private partnership as a complex economic and legal phenomenon that constitutes the interaction of the state and private sector entities in the framework of the implementation of socially significant projects. The research methodology is based on the use of general scientific and private scientific methods (analysis, comparison, generalization, etc.), methods of studying the genesis of the phenomenon, interpretation of the structure and content of political and legal doctrines, as well as comparative and structural analysis, allowing to reveal the essential characteristics of the phenomenon under study. As a scientific novelty, the authors propose a number of additions to the Federal Law-224, including an augmented approach to the definition of public-private partnership. The authors noted that the criterion for generating goods (public, as well as mixed and mixed communal goods), in particular, during the implementation of other forms of agreements, should become a criterion for separating other forms of agreements between the state and representatives of the private sector – economic entities and what can (should) be classify it as a quasi-PPP, and the presence of 2 other signs is a dividing line between a quasi–PPP and a "full-fledged" public-private partnership.
To the question of the typology of the mechanisms of criminal law influence and the possibilities of their criminological support
Authors: Shikhanov Vladimir Nikolaevich
Published: October 2023

The object of the study is criminal law impact – a legal phenomenon that is subject to development in domestic criminal law, but has received insufficient research due to the ongoing discussions of legal scholars about its content, place in the system of legal regulation and mechanism of action. The subject of the study is, firstly, the typology of the mechanisms of criminal law regulation, and secondly, the possibilities and methods of criminological support of such mechanisms. The typology is based on different types of criminal law rationality, which, in turn, through legal consciousness and legal culture, set different expectations from the application of criminal law in different cases. The author draws attention to the fact that the attempt to present the mechanism of criminal-legal impact as a single phenomenon, as well as the efforts of legal scholars to develop universal methods of criminological justification of criminal-legal prohibition face serious difficulties. To overcome them, it is proposed to distinguish three types of the mechanism of criminal legal impact, as well as to focus attention not so much on the justification of decisions on criminalization or decriminalization, as on criminological support of the process of criminal legal impact, taking into account the typology carried out. The main methods of criminological support of each type of mechanism of criminal legal influence are proposed. Taking into account the peculiarities of the functioning of the social control system, separate recommendations for reducing or strengthening the processes of stigmatization of offenders are proposed for each type.
Solvable collective dynamics of globally coupled Stuart-Landau limit-cycle systems under mean-field feedback
Authors: He Su-Juan , Zou Wei ,   School of Mathematical Sciences, South China Normal University, Guangzhou 510631, China
Published: October 2023

Coupled Stuart-Landau limit-cycle system serves as an important paradigmatic model for studying synchronization transitions and collective dynamics in self-sustained nonlinear systems with amplitude degree of freedom. In this paper, we extensively investigate three typical solvable collective behaviors in globally coupled Stuart-Landau limit-cycle systems under mean-field feedback: incoherence, amplitude death, and locked states. In the thermodynamic limit of \begin{document}$N\rightarrow\infty$\end{document}, the critical condition characterizing the transition from incoherence to synchronization is explicitly obtained via performing the linear stability of the incoherent states. It is found that the synchronization transition occurs at a smaller coupling strength when the strength of mean-field feedback is gradually enhanced. The stable regions of amplitude death are theoretically obtained via an analysis of the linear stability of coupled systems around the origin. The results indicate that the existence of mean-field feedback can effectively eliminate the amplitude death phenomenon in the coupled systems; furthermore, the existence of locked states is analyzed theoretically, and in particular, the boundary of stable amplitude death region is re-derived from the self-consistent relation of the order parameter for the locked states. This work reveals the key role of mean-field feedback in controlling the collective dynamics of coupled nonlinear systems, deepens the understanding of the influence of mean-field feedback technology on the coupling-induced collective behaviors, and is conductive to our further understanding of the emerging rules and the underlying mechanisms of self-organized behavior in complex coupled systems.

This study employs real-time Fourier transform spectroscopy to investigate the pulsation dynamics of soliton molecules in a mode-locked erbium-doped fiber laser, utilizing pump intensity modulation. By manipulating the driving voltage of the pump source, we systematically observe and characterize the impact of external modulation signals on the amplitude, period, pulsation frequency, and the relative phase evolution among the pulsating soliton molecules within their spectra.The results demonstrate that, under specific conditions of pump intensity modulation, the pulsation period of soliton molecule spectra can be precisely regulated by the pump modulation frequency. Concurrently, the amplitude of soliton molecule pulsations and the evolution of relative phase among the solitons are intricately tied to the pump modulation frequency. At lower modulation frequencies, such as 1 kHz, the relative phase among the pulses within the soliton molecule exhibits a sliding-type dynamics as a function of propagation time.As the modulation frequency gradually increases, e.g., to 5 kHz, a scenario emerges where three soliton molecules are generated. Notably, both the soliton spacing and relative phase undergo synchronous adjustments influenced by the pump modulation. With further escalation of the modulation frequency, such as to 20 kHz, the relative phase evolution among the pulses within the soliton molecule gradually descends into chaos. This observation suggests the plausible existence of an inherent resonant frequency associated with pulsating soliton molecules, which has direct implications for their stability.The findings of this research hold significant relevance for advancing our comprehension of soliton molecule generation and enhancing their stability. Furthermore, they offer valuable insights into the broader domain of all-optical manipulation and applications of soliton molecules, as well as their utilization in pulse encoding within mode-locked laser systems.

TmFeO3 exhibits rich physical properties such as magneto-optical effect, multiferroicity, and spin reorientation, making it possess significant research value in condensed matter physics and materials science. In this study, we utilize a time-domain terahertz magneto-optical spectroscopy system to investigate the changes in spin resonance frequency of TmFeO3 single crystal at T = 1.6 K under external magnetic fields in a range of 0–7 T. The TmFeO3 sample is grown in an optical floating zone furnace and its crystallographic orientation is determined by using back-reflection Laue X-ray photography with a tungsten target. The measurement setup is a self-built time-domain terahertz magneto-optical spectroscopy system, with magnetic fields in a range of 0–7 T, temperatures in a range of 1.6–300 K, and a spectral range of 0.2–2.0 THz. A pair of 1 mm-thick ZnTe nonlinear crystals is used to generate and detect terahertz signals through optical rectification and electro-optic sampling technique. The system variable temperature and magnetic field are controlled by a superconducting magnet. In experiments, a linearly polarized terahertz wave is vertically incident on the sample surface, and its magnetic component HTHz is parallel to the sample surface. By rotating the sample, the angle (θ) between macroscopic magnetic moment  M  and HTHz can be tuned, achieving selective excitations of the two modes, that is, θ = 0 for q-AFM mode and 90° for q-FM mode. Terahertz absorption spectrum results indicate that as the magnetic field increases, the quasi-ferromagnetic resonance (q-FM) of TmFeO3 single crystal shifts towards high frequencies, and quasi-antiferromagnetic resonance (q-AFM) transits to q-FM under low critical magnetic fields (2.2–3.6 T). Through magnetic structure analysis and theoretical fitting, it is confirmed that the magnetic moment of the single crystal undergoes magnetic field induced spin reorientation. This study is helpful in better understanding of the regulation mechanism of the internal magnetic structure of rare earth ferrite under the combined action of external magnetic field and temperature field, and also in developing related spin electronic devices.

No preclinical experimental approach enables the study of voluntary oral consumption of high-concentration Δ

-tetrahydrocannabinol (
THC
) and its intoxicating effects, mainly owing to the aversive response of rodents to THC that limits intake. Here we developed a palatable THC formulation and an optimized access paradigm in mice to drive voluntary consumption. THC was formulated in chocolate gelatin (
THC-E-gel
). Adult male and female mice were allowed
ad libitum
access for 2 h. Cannabimimetic responses (hypolocomotion, analgesia, and hypothermia) were measured following access. Levels of THC and its metabolites were measured in blood and brain tissue. Acoustic startle responses were measured to investigate THC-induced psychotomimetic behavior.Adult mice consumed high-dose THC-E-gel (≈30 mg/kg over 2 h) and exhibited robust CB

receptor-dependent behavioral responses. High-dose THC-E-gel consumption led to parallel accumulation of THC and its psychoactive metabolite, 11-OH-THC, in brain, a profile that contrasts with the known rapid decline in brain 11-OH-THC levels following intraperitoneal THC injections. High-dose THC-E-gel consumption increased the acoustic startle response preferentially in males, and this psychotomimetic response was remarkably different from the response triggered by intraperitoneal contingent administration of THC. Comparing cannabimimetic responses elicited by intraperitoneal versus oral administration enabled a “predicted dose” model of THC triggered behavioral changes. Significantly, voluntary consumption of high-dose THC-E-gel triggered equivalent cannabimimetic responses in male and female mice but increased acoustic startle response preferentially in males. Thus, THC-E-gel offers a robust preclinical experimental approach to study cannabimimetic responses triggered by voluntary consumption in mice, including sex-dependent psychotomimetic responses.

Human H3N2 influenza viruses are subject to rapid antigenic evolution which translates into frequent updates of the composition of seasonal influenza vaccines. Despite these updates, the effectiveness of influenza vaccines against H3N2-associated disease is suboptimal. Seasonal influenza vaccines primarily induce hemagglutinin-specific antibody responses. However, antibodies directed against influenza neuraminidase (NA) also contribute to protection. Here, we analyzed the antigenic diversity of a panel of N2 NAs derived from human H3N2 viruses that circulated between 2009 and 2017. The antigenic breadth of these NAs was determined based on the NA inhibition (NAI) of a broad panel of ferret and mouse immune sera that were raised by infection and recombinant N2 NA immunization. This assessment allowed us to distinguish at least 4 antigenic groups in the N2 NAs derived from human H3N2 viruses that circulated between 2009 and 2017. Computational analysis further revealed that the amino acid residues in N2 NA that have a major impact on susceptibility to NAI by immune sera are in proximity of the catalytic site. Finally, a machine learning method was developed that allowed to accurately predict the impact of mutations that are present in our N2 NA panel on NAI. These findings have important implications for the renewed interest to develop improved influenza vaccines based on the inclusion of a protective NA antigen formulation.
