This paper aims to measure and forecast salt price based on cost and price rationality. The research employed quantitative method with Ordinary Least Square Model for measuring the rationality of salt and ordinary least square for forecasting salt cost and price in order to describe salt cost and price behaviour. Although the demand for salt increases every year, the abundant and cheap raw materials as well as the growth of the domestic production of salt business do not correlate positively with the growth of demand. We focus on measuring and forecasting price rationality as a proxy for the salt business prospects in Indonesia. We found that salt price formed at the time of the study was higher than the normal one. This is contrary to the motive theory of entrepreneurs, making the salt business in Indonesia remain a mystery.

This study is based on the abundant damaged house building during the earthquake. Wall is an important part of a non-engineered house. It is constructed by clay bricks and mortar. The damage happened to the house building is not separated from the specification of the clay bricks used. Dynamic simulation towards the non-engineered construction would reveal the displacement value that happened to the structure of mansory that applies the guidelines from SNI, ACI, and condition in the field. The dynamic simulation of an ordinary non-engineered house employed finite element method. The purpose of this research is to find out the mechanical performance of the mansory when the earthquake is occurring. The method implemented in this research is scientific analysis through collecting the available theories and data from the previous research. A scientific method is started with deciding a concept based on the events frequently and generally happened in the field which are also considered a novelty. The following step is conducting data analysis by using finite element method where the maximum deformation displacement value reached ux 0.008 cm, uy 0.044 cm and uz 0.008 cm. From the simulation it can be concluded that the biggest displacement happened to mansory constructed based on the field condition.

Nowadays, using recyled aggregate and seawater as replacing natural aggregate and freshwater in mixing have been main priority to be a new concrete construction material. However, in order to asses their strength performance in fast and accurate, an appropriate method needs to be determined. Therefore, the aim of this research is to evaluate and predict the compressive strength of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) mixed seawater using Schmidt rebound hammer test (SRH) and the result value was corresponded to concrete compressive testing machine (CTM) as control test of concrete specimens. Total 72 samples divided into three concrete mixtures were designed and prepared in cylindrical samples with w/c ratio of 0.45 and target compressive strength of 25 MPa. The first mixture was named natural aggregate concrete (NAC) or BAN as control concrete with 100% natural aggregate and fresh water. The second and third mixtures were named BAR-50 and BAR-100 with the BAN replacement of 50% and 100% RAC respectively. Seawater as mixing was performed in mixture concrete of BAR-50 and BAR-100. All sample mixtures were then wet cured at different age of 7, 28, 56 and 90 days in fresh water. The results show a good correlation between SRH and CTM tests with having high correlation of R2=0.9908. Also, a proposed mathematical model, equation 1, is created for quick calculation in predicting compressive strength of RCA. Therefore, the usage of SRH test is a realistic alternative to predict the compressive strength of recycled concrete with different percentage of replacement of NAC and mixing seawater.

Generally, local precast U-ditch does not yet have consistent dimensions and quality. The dimensions of the u-ditch are too large or too small with low power, making the u-ditch inefficient. This is because there is no design standard for U-ditch. This study aims to determine the strength of local precast U-ditch based on SNI 1725: 2016. The results of this analysis show that the flexural resistance of local U-ditch products is smaller than the external loads (ð“ Mn < Mu).

Citarum River is one of the biggest rivers in Java Island and the primary source of Jakarta's water supply. Named the dirtiest river globally in 2013, the Indonesian government is committed to improving the Citarum River's water quality by 2025. However, the Majalaya District, the center of the textile industry area in the upstream part of the Citarum River, is indicated to have significantly contributed to the river pollution. Hence, it is essential to conduct a study to evaluate the water quality in the Citarum River, especially in the Majalaya District. The results showed a considerable decrease in water quality from upstream to downstream of the Citarum River in 2013-2021. Concurrently, it was also found that the factory effluent far exceeded the permissible limit.
The Way is in Training: Martial Arts-informed Compassionate Mind Training to enhance CFT Therapists’ Compassionate Competencies
Authors: Clapton Neil , Hiskey Syd
Published: January 2023

Traditional Martial Arts practice(s) can be construed as forms of fully embodied Compassionate Mind Training (CMT). Integration of these body-mind systems can be a powerful means to cultivate and entrain important therapist competencies in compassionate engagement and action. Through such training and personal practice, compassion-focused therapists can develop and enhance their abilities to stimulate and access compassionate motivation at a deeply embodied level. Martial arts-informed CMT thus has the potential to afford therapists greater sensitivity, attunement, distress tolerance, courage and compassionate responsiveness, particularly in difficult therapeutic encounters such as alliance ruptures.
Retracted: Performance of Grouted Coupler Embedded in Reinforced Concrete ABC Bridge Pier at Vehicle Impact
Authors: Roy Suman
Published: January 2023

Increased occurrence of dynamic loading on bridge piers caused by seismic, blast and vehicular impact incidences have been increasingly reported. Statistical data shows that while seismic and blast have received significant attention in the literature, whereas the frequency of occurrence of vehicular impact is remarkably higher but contemplating little consideration. With the newer construction methods like accelerated bridge construction (ABC) and its response against vehicle impact performance needs an additional study before widespread use. Static and dynamic performances of the coupler are investigated. A representative circular RC bridge with circular cross-section is considered and hollow cylindrical splice-sleeves filled up with concrete grout is embedded in the foundation. Finite element model (FEM) of single grouted coupler is developed based on the manufacturer data. Apportioned load through load ratio is considered and applied to the individual coupler. Numerical simulations are also performed using commercial finite element software package, ANSYS. This research is led by mesh independent studies to precisely accomplish sensitivity analyses. The results from numerical simulations are compared with the corresponding analytical solution. Stress-strain resulted from conservative dynamic simulation are plotted followed by integrity analyses to capture material performance at high deformation. Quasi-static strain rates are utilized for steel re-bars with connected coupler and validated with the finite element (FE) results to determine dynamic impact factor (DIF) of steel. This is further validated through utilizing experimental data from published journal. This study instills a good agreement by providing valuable information to aid in the selection of appropriate coupler connections, addressing material properties at various performance level, and contributes useful guidelines for the researchers, practitioners, and structural engineers.

Published: January 2023

Background: Osteoporosis is one of the degenerative diseases in the elderly which is still a priority health problem in Indonesia. There are several precautions that can be taken to prevent the occurrence of osteoporosis, one of that is vitamin D. Vitamin D can be obtained through exposure to Ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun and from nutritional sources of food. Vitamin D can slow down the process of osteoporosis, because vitamin D is able to maintain bone health by increasing the absorption of the mineral calcium.

 

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to see the comparison of vitamin D intake and UV exposure in pre and postmenopausal women during the pandemic.

Methods: This research was an analytic study conducted with a cross sectional research design, which compares predictor variables and outcome variables that are viewed simultaneously. The study was conducted on women aged 35-65 years at the Elderly Posyandu, Padang City. Then the results of the data obtained will be analyzed using the Anova test.

Results: The results showed that the percentage of menopausal respondents exposed to UV light was higher (87.5%) compared to those who were not exposed to UV light (12.5%). Then the percentage of menopausal respondents based on the consumption of Vit D < RDA was higher (52.5%) than the consumption of Vit D > RDA (47.5%).
Conclusions: There was no significant difference (p<0.05) between the incidence of menopause and levels of vitamin D intake (p=0.381) and UV light exposure (p=0.462) in the elderly at the Posyandu Lansia, Padang City

Published: January 2023

BACKGROUND

With the improvement of the survival rate of patients with breast cancer (BC) , the problem of social isolation (SI) began to attract public attention，However, few studies explore the internal heterogeneity of SI and ignore the heterogeneity among patient groups at different levels.

OBJECTIVE

The goal of this study is to investigate the SI subtypes of patients with BC and to explore the influencing factors of it.

METHODS

A sample of 303 BC patients participated in the study from September to December, 2021. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was performed to identify SI clusters based on the three sub-scales of the Chinese version of the Social Anxiety Scale, the Chinese version of the Social Avoidance and Distress Scale, and the Chinese version of the Loneliness Scale.

RESULTS

We found that SI can be divided into three categories: high-level (Class 1), middle-level (Class 2), and low-level (Class 3), accounting for 20.46%, 33.00%, and 46.54%, respectively. Compared to Class 3, Class 1, which had the lower average monthly income per family member (RMB) (< 3000: OR = 5.298, P = .021; 3000~5000: OR = 5.320, P = .018), was more likely to suffer from SI due to occupation (Laborer: OR = 12.023, P = .009). Surgery (OR = 14.138, P < .001; OR = 2.777, P = .020), chemotherapy (OR = 10.224, P = .001; OR = 3.545, P = .001); poorer family functioning (OR = .671, P < .001; OR = .801, P = .002), and lower levels of self-transcendence (OR = .806, P < .001; OR = .911, P <.001) were important influencing factors for SI in Class 1 and Class 2 compared to Class 3.

CONCLUSIONS

SI is classifiably heterogeneous among patients with BC. Strategies that identify characteristics of SI and give targeted intervention focusing on family functioning and improving self-transcendence levels contribute to the prevention of SI among patients with BC.
The Influence of Job Insecurity on Employee Safety Behavior: The Mediating Effect of Meaningfulness of Work and, the Buffering Role of Ethical Leadership: Three Wave Time-Lagged Web-Based Self-report Survey (Longitudinal Approach) (Preprint)
Authors: Kim Byung-Jik , Kim Min-Jik , Lee Julak
Published: January 2023

BACKGROUND

Although many previous studies examined the influence of job insecurity on organizational outcomes, research gaps remain. First, the existing research focused less on the importance of safety behavior. Second, previous studies underexplored the importance of positive psychology-associated mediators and moderators. Third, we need extant studies to investigate leaders’ critical roles in job insecurity.

OBJECTIVE

To supplement the above research gaps, we aim to explore the mediator and moderator in the relationship between job insecurity and safety behavior from the perspective of positive psychology

METHODS

With three-wave time-lagged data from 235 South Korean workers, we built a moderated mediation model by using structural equation modeling (SEM).
Based on Anderson and Gerbing’s (1998) suggestion, we took a two-step approach that consisted of the (1) measurement and (2) structural model. In the first step, we performed a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to test the validity of the measurement model. In the second step, based on SEM, we performed a moderated mediation model analysis with the maximum likelihood estimator using the AMOS 23 program to test the structural model.

RESULTS

We empirically demonstrated that the meaningfulness of work mediates the job insecurity–safety behavior link. In addition, ethical leadership plays a positive moderating role which diminishes the negative impact of job insecurity on the meaningfulness of work.

CONCLUSIONS

This result indicates that the meaningfulness of work (as a mediator) and ethical leadership (as a moderator) are the critical underlying mechanisms and contingent variables in the relationship between job insecurity and safety behavior.

BACKGROUND

Achieving the target for eliminating tuberculosis (TB) in India by 2025, 5 years ahead of the global target, critically depends on strengthening the capacity of human resources as one of the key components of the health system. Due to the rapid updates of standards and protocols, the human resources for TB health care suffer from a lack of understanding of recent updates and acquiring necessary knowledge.

OBJECTIVE

Despite an increasing focus on the digital revolution in health care, there is no such platform available to deliver the key updates in national TB control programs with easy access. Thus, the aim of this study was to explore the development and evolution of a mobile health tool for capacity building of the Indian health system’s workforce to better manage patients with TB.

METHODS

This study involved two phases. The first phase was based on a qualitative investigation, including personal interviews to understand the basic requirements of staff working in the management of patients with TB, followed by participatory consultative meetings with stakeholders to validate and develop the content for the mobile health app. Qualitative information was collected from the Purbi Singhbhum and Ranchi districts of Jharkhand and Gandhinagar, and from the Surat districts of Gujarat State. In the second phase, a participatory design process was undertaken as part of the content creation and validation exercises.

RESULTS

The first phase collected information from 126 health care staff, with a mean age of 38.4 (SD 8.9) years and average work experience of 8.9 years. The assessment revealed that more than two-thirds of participants needed further training and lacked knowledge of the most current updates to TB program guidelines. The consultative process determined the need for a digital solution in easily accessible formats and ready reckoner content to deliver practical solutions to address operational issues for implementation of the program. Ultimately, the digital platform named Ni-kshay SETU (Support to End Tuberculosis) was developed to support the knowledge enhancement of health care workers.

CONCLUSIONS

The development of staff capacity is vital to the success or failure of any program or intervention. Having up-to-date information provides confidence to health care staff when interacting with patients in the community and aids in making quick judgments when handling case scenarios. Ni-kshay SETU represents a novel digital capacity-building platform for enhancing human resource skills in achieving the goal of TB elimination.
Promoting Well-being Among Informal Caregivers of People With HIV/AIDS in Rural Malawi: Community-Based Participatory Research Approach (Preprint)
Authors: Sbaffi Laura , Zamani Efpraxia , Kalua Khumbo
Published: January 2023

BACKGROUND

People living with HIV/AIDS and their informal caregivers (usually family members) in Malawi do not have adequate access to patient-centered care, particularly in remote rural areas of the country because of the high burden of HIV/AIDS, coupled with a fragmented and patchy health care system. Chronic conditions require self-care strategies, which are now promoted in both developed and developing contexts but are still only emerging in sub-Saharan African countries.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to explore the effects of the implementation of a short-term intervention aimed at supporting informal caregivers of people living with HIV/AIDS in Malawi in their caring role and improving their well-being. The intervention includes the dissemination of 6 health advisory messages on topics related to the management of HIV/AIDS over a period of 6 months, via the WhatsApp audio function to 94 caregivers attending peer support groups in the rural area of Namwera.

METHODS

We adopted a community-based participatory research approach, whereby the health advisory messages were designed and formulated in collaboration with informal caregivers, local medical physicians, social care workers, and community chiefs and informed by prior discussions with informal caregivers. Feedback on the quality, relevance, and applicability of the messages was gathered via individual interviews with the caregivers.

RESULTS

The results showed that the messages were widely disseminated beyond the support groups via word of mouth and highlighted a very high level of adoption of the advice contained in the messages by caregivers, who reported immediate (short-term) and long-term self-assessed benefits for themselves, their families, and their local communities.

CONCLUSIONS

This study offers a novel perspective on how to combine community-based participatory research with a cost-effective, health-oriented informational intervention that can be implemented to support effective HIV/AIDS self-care and facilitate informal caregivers’ role.
Birth rate, perinatal mortality and infant mortality in Ukraine: evolution from 1991 to 2021 and current risks

Published: January 2023

Ukraine is one of the poorest countries in Europe and currently is under attack of Russian troops. In recent decades, birth rate in Ukraine has been steadily declining by 47 %, and infant and perinatal mortality rates remain among the highest positions in Europe. Infant mortality, perinatal mortality, early neonatal mortality, and stillbirth rates in Ukraine have more than halved in 30 years and are lower than in the CIS countries, but still exceed those in the European Union. There is a downward trend in characteristics of all components of perinatal mortality; more for intranatal mortality, less for early neonatal mortality, whose share in the structure has increased in recent years, which requires improving the quality of medical care for newborns and taking measures for antenatal protection of the fetus. The fact that early neonatal mortality rates in Ukraine may be underestimated due to shortcomings in the registration of live births and stillbirths is worrying. Congenital malformations and conditions that appeared during pregnancy and childbirth in women who give birth to children with very low and extremely low body weight dominate among the causes of perinatal mortality in Ukraine. An effective way to reduce child losses in Ukraine during the last decade was the introduction of modern perinatal technologies to prevent pathological conditions in mothers and babies with extremely low and very low body weight, the continuation of the creation and restoration of a network of perinatal centers and proper conditions for safe childbirth in the regions of the country with the help of international aid, timely diagnosis and treatment of conditions that occur in the perinatal period and congenital malformations. An important resource for reducing infant and perinatal mortality in Ukraine and increasing the birth rate will be the stabilization of the sociopolitical situation in the country and appropriate international assistance in restoring the health care system, aimed at improving both somatic and reproductive health of future parents, especially mothers, forming in them a conscious and proper attitude to parenthood and care for the newborn.

Published: January 2023

Background. Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common rheumatological disease of childhood (1 : 1,000 children), which involves many organs and systems, primarily cardiovascular, with the gradual development of chronic heart failure. As you know, when the functional capacity of the heart decreases, a cascade of reactions of the neurohumoral regulation system is triggered and, first of all, the sympathoadrenal system is activated with an increase in the catecholamine production, the development of tachycardia. Due to this, the level of brain natriuretic peptide in the blood is increased. In children, chronic heart failure is asymptomatic. Therefore, determining tolerance to physical exertion plays an important role in its diagnosis. The purpose was to determine the functional state of the cardiovascular system and the tolerance to physical exertion in adolescents with JIA, taking into account the level of catecholamine excretion in the daily urine and the level of natriuretic peptide in the blood. Materials and methods. Fifty-six patients with JIA aged 12–17 years (13.28 ± 0.38 years) were examined. The control group consisted of 46 apparently healthy peers of the corresponding age. A heart ultrasound was performed to establish the functional state of the myocardium. To study tolerance to physical exertion, a six-minute walk test was performed with calculation of Kerdo index before and after the test. The level of catecholamine excretion in the urine and the level of natriuretic peptide in the blood were studied. Results. Patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis had early signs of right ventricular myocardial systolic dysfunction (a decrease in the right ventricular ejection fraction). At the same time, we detected a decrease in the catecholamine level and an increase in the content of natriuretic peptide, which has a neuromodulatory effect at different levels of the sympathoadrenal system. Conclusions. Activation of the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system (increased Kerdo index) in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis does not ensure the effectiveness of minimal physical exertion in a six-minute walk test.

Published: January 2023

Si bien el tema de las revistas depredadoras y piratas es algo que debe llamarnos la atención y revisar con cuidado; es importante contextualizar y entender por qué llegamos a esto antes de analizar sus detalles. Los artículos científicos son la evidencia concreta de la producción de conocimiento, y hoy requisito obligatorio para la difusión de resultados de investigación. Las modificaciones estructurales que trajo la ola neoliberal de los años noventa, produjeron un cambio significativo y paulatino en la concepción de lo que entendemos como sociedad del conocimiento, donde las reformas de las políticas públicas que se vinculan con el desarrollo de la investigación y la docencia se hicieron eco del capitalismo académico, creando la idea de una universidad con visión empresarial, donde la producción científica tiene valor económico. En este nuevo escenario deben actuar las personas que se dedican a la docencia y a la investigación, un contexto plagado de cambios.

Results The main results of the analysis based on the criteria presented in the previous research on project-based learning showed that the project types were in the order of making, problem-solving type, research type, and experiential type. Also, more than half of the studies dealing with learners' affective outcome were in the order of behavioral outcome and cognitive outcome. Most of the learning outcomes were measured through self-report questionnaires.
Conclusions Based on the findings, it can be used as basic data necessary for future project-based learning design and follow-up research.

Published: January 2023

Objectives The purpose of this study is to develop the practice program of ‘Establishment of marketing strategy based on field research’ for the face-to-face and non-face-to-face ｢Principles of Marketing｣ PBL classes, respectively.
Methods After developing a practice program according to the meaningful learning experience-oriented course design method, it was operated for 4 years (2 years of face-to-face class, 2 years of non-face-to-face class), and has been improved through action research. The researcher's participant observation log (reflection diary), student's learning log and interview data were analyzed using content analysis methods. Causal chains analysis and class structure analysis were also applied.
Results The practice program used two linked PBL modules: From the perspective of a company, each team 1) finds consumer pain points based on field research results and 2) establishes marketing strategies that can resolve/improve them. The face-to-face class program focused on problem-solving practice based on field research data. The non-face-to-face class program was structured around the use of CIT (critical Incident Technique) and mini-survey in connection with ZOOM-based interviews instead of participant observation. In the final non- face-to-face ｢Principles of Marketing｣ class to which this method was applied, the result of the lecture evaluation portrayed a high satisfaction level (98.8/100 points).
Conclusions The final completed non-face-to-face class and face-to-face class practice program was presented using the ‘course structure diagram’ to make it easier to understand the overall structure. Methods of application in mixed classes (classes using both face-to-face and non-face-to-face instruction), which are expected to increase in the future, are also presented.

Вязкоупругий отклик полимеров для применений в композитах определяют обычно путем испытаний с контролируемой одноосной деформацией или напряжением. Однако при анализе конструкций из нескольких материалов методом конечных элементов (МКЭ) или других численных или аналитических инструментов необходима модель материала с полным набором функций податливости и/или функций релаксации. В настоящей работе представлена методика и точные аналитические выражения для расчета всего набора вязкоупругих функций на основе модуля релаксации и коэффициента Пуассона, определенных в испытаниях с контролируемой деформацией. Метод основан на преобразованиях Лапласа, когда возможно точное обратное преобразование при использовании линейной вязкоупругой модели с функциями в рядах Прони. Результаты аналитической модели сравнили с результатами моделирований МКЭ, в которых использовали конкретные граничные условия для определения каждой конкретной вязкоупругой функции. Исследовали применимость так называемого квазиупругого метода, в котором для вычисления заданной вязкоупругой функции в момент времени tk по мгновенным значениям E(tk ) и ν(tk ) использовали выражения теории упругости. Для изотропных материалов эти три подхода дали почти совпадающие результаты.

Эффект саморазогрева, обусловленный внутренним трением, — актуальная проблема при проектировании и эксплуатации циклически нагруженных элементов конструкций из стеклопластиков. Вибрация аэрокосмических конструкций с большими амплитудами и высокими частотами, а также ускоренные механические испытания могут привести к повышению температуры композита, деградации механических свойств и преждевременному разрушению. Цель исследования — изучение кинетики саморазогрева стеклопластика при знакопеременном изгибе. Для описания кинетики саморазогрева композита при нормальном конвективном теплообмене разработана малопараметрическая аналитическая модель. Для проверки результатов моделирования разработали оригинальный клиновидный образец и экспериментальную установку. Испытания на циклический изгиб провели при частотах от 10 до 20 Гц и амплитудах перемещений от 4 до 7 мм. Предложенная модель позволяет с приемлемой точностью предсказать зависимость максимальной температуры композита от времени, частоты и амплитуды.

Исследованы металловолокнистые композиты, армированные алюминиевыми листами и слоями стеклоткани, с полиэфирной смолой в качестве матрицы. Композиты изготовлены методом ручной выкладки.Проанализировано влияние расположения слоев и их количества на механические и физические свойства композитов 10 разных композиций. Рассмотрены композиты со слоями стеклоткани с разной поверхностной плотностью. Модуль упругости и прочность при растяжении и ударную прочность определили в соответствии со стандартами ASTM D3039 и ASTM D6110. Полученные результаты показали, что последовательность укладки слоев влияет на модуль Юнга и прочность композита. Результаты ударных испытаний многослойной структуры, армированной стекловолокнами, продемонстрировали значительное увеличение ударной прочности композита при введении в него слоев из стекловолокон по сравнению с контрольными образцами. Выполнено моделирование испытаний с использованием метода конечных элементов (МКЭ) с помощью программного обеспечения ABAQUS.

Изучен представительный элемент объема (ПЭО) с 11 типами регулярной упаковки волокон. Используя метод конечных элементов (МКЭ) и полуаналитическое многошаговое правило смесей, определен эффективный модуль упругости ПЭО, соответствующий разным типам упаковки волокон. Эквивалентный модуль упругости ПЭО зависит от типа упаковки. Все типы упаковки продемонстрировали наличие трансверсальной изотропии: различие численных значений эквивалентного модуля в двух поперечных направлениях менее 1%. Метод расчета, основанный на многоступенчатом правиле смесей, допускает изменение модулей упругости в случае разных типов упаковки и постоянно занижает значение эквивалентного модуля упругости по сравнению с рассчитанным МКЭ. Значение эффективного модуля упругости для случайной упаковки наиболее близко к таковому при удлиненной треугольной упаковке. Распределение напряжения на поверхности раздела волокно—матрица существенно зависит от типа упаковки и направления нагружения. Наиболее разреженный усеченный гексагональный тип упаковки продемонстрировал наибольшее значение эквивалентного модуля упругости и наибольшую концентрацию напряжений на поверхности раздела. Наиболее плотный треугольный тип упаковки обусловливает наименьшее значение модуля упругости и наименьшую концентрацию радиальных напряжений.

This research aims to comprehend the practice of dividing the inheritance in Saruaso and Sawah Tangah Villages following the distribution principle of inheritance law distribution in Islam. The problem was that there were different views on the distribution of inheritance in the Saruaso and Sawah Tangah Villages with the provisions on the distribution of inheritance based on Islamic teachings. Meanwhile, the people of Saruaso and Sawah Tangah Villages embraced Islam. This research used a survey method. The research object was Niniak Mamak (indigenous stakeholders) and Bundo Kanduang (village's mothers) in two villages, Kanagarian Saruaso and Kanagarian Sawah Tangah. The sampling technique used was the purposive sampling technique. The results of this research are the practice of dividing inheritance in Saruaso and Sawah Tangah Village; in this case, low inheritance does not conflict with the provisions that apply to inheritance law in Islamic teachings (based on Faraid law). While the division of high inheritance follows customary provisions, this is because the high inheritance belongs to the people (tribes), cannot be traded, and cannot be divided individually.
