Published: July 2022

Orthopantomograms of different individuals were studied to understand the prevalence of morphological variants in styloid process. New types of styloid processes were identified other than that found in the existing classification while proceeding with the study. Thus, a deeper examination of this topic felt interesting.

To identify the anatomical variations of styloid process and its distribution according to age and gender on digital panoramic radiographs.

A total of 1000 panoramic radiographs from the database were analyzed for the types and distribution. Langlais classification with modification is used for the study.

The tapered and wavy forms were identified apart from Langlais classification of styloid process, in elongated category. Among total population under study elongated category were predominant compared to other types and gender wise distribution manifested the predilection of elongated category among male. Moreover, the elongated variant dominated among the older individuals than adult and younger age groups. Considering age as the parameter Type IV category prevails in younger age group.

1):The two new morphological variants among the elongated variant of styloid process categorized as tapered and wavy were identified, which is to be included in existing classification. 2): Elongated variant is most predominantly seen, of which tapered variety is common among elongated variety, 86.6% was seen in females and 83.8% was seen in males; 3): Wavy variant was dominant in males with 16.1%, whereas in females it was 13.3%. 4): Contemplation of gender as parameter, manifested male predilection to elongated category. 5): Relatively high prevalence of type IV category was analyzed next to elongated variant among age group upto 20 years.

The perception of the other for identity-building: the construction of a threat through the American identity.
Authors: Maffei Michelle
Published: July 2022

The concept of threat is a wide concept to embrace because it can be associated with something unknown or something evil. However, the main idea of the concept is that it produces an existential fear. Hence, it must be eliminated or at least tried to be eliminated. These assumptions are quite limited because they cannot apprehend the polarity of things. The concept of threat and identity even though they seem mutually exclusive, are in reality mutually sustaining. Hence, this qualitative article shall argue that there is an existential need to have a threat or fear of the unknown for the construction of a strong identity. It explores the need to have a threat as a scapegoat and how these sorts of threats are pivotal to categorially understand our own identity.

Published: July 2022

El síndrome de opsoclonia mioclonía es una entidad neurológica poco frecuente que afecta a los niños en la etapa preescolar. Clínicamente se caracteriza por una triada clásica de opsoclonía, mioclonía y ataxia aguda, con una evolución progresiva o incluso de manera incompleta. Su etiología puede ser paraneoplásica, en la mayoría de los casos en asociación con neuroblastomas, así como postinfecciosa o parainfecciosa, autoinmune o idiopática. En objetivo del tratamiento es la inmunomodulación con terapia de primera línea con esteroides endovenosos aunque pudiendo asociarse a recaídas y secuelas a largo plazo en el ámbito neurológico y conductual. El síndrome de opsoclonia mioclonía representa un reto diagnóstico en los pacientes con ataxia aguda dada la variedad de presentación clínica, por tanto es importante tener una alta sospecha diagnostica para garantizar un tratamiento oportuno y evitar secuelas futuras.
Feature Extraction of Hyperspectral Images Based on Subspace Band Selection and Transform-Domain Recursive Filtering
Authors: Cui Zhi , Cai Zhenhua
Published: July 2022

During the feature extraction of hyperspectral images, a single filter cannot acquire complete information. To solve the problem, this paper proposes a feature extraction method based on subspace band selection and transform-domain recursive filtering. The proposed method contains three steps: Firstly, the target hyperspectral image is divided into multiple subsets of adjacent bands. Secondly, the Lasso-based band selection approach is adopted to compute the sparsity coefficient of each band. The bands in each subset are then ranked by the coefficient. Based on the ranking, the band with the highest coefficient is extracted from each subset, and used to reconstruct the hyperspectral data. Finally, the reconstructed hyperspectral image is processed through transform-domain recursive filtering, producing the features to be classified. Taking the support vector machine (SVM) as the classifier, our method was tested on several real hyperspectral image datasets. The results show that our method has a better classification accuracy than the other band selection methods.
Novel Dominant Color Subband Image Encryption in Visual Sensor Network for Smart Military Surveillance System
Authors: Nithya Rajendiran , Dhanasekaran Devaraj
Published: July 2022

Internet of Things plays a major role in improving the levels of intelligence for several defense and military applications. There are myriads of visual sensor nodes deployed in various domain areas to acquire complete situational awareness. These sensor nodes must transmit the real-time information obtained from multiple locations to identify the threats in the danger-prone zones. The keyframes obtained from the visual sensor nodes should reach the command and control room in a confidentially manner. The lightweight scheme proposed for encryption in the visual sensor network is the novel Dominant color subband image encryption. This scheme involves encrypting only the dominant subband from an entire RGB image using the novel hybrid Chaotic method. The hybrid chaotic method combines the distinctive features of Quadratic, Ginger breadman, and Baker’s map. This hybrid scheme develops a complex, diverse chaotic structure that is unpredictable. A comparative analysis of this encryption scheme against other chaotic methods was done. It was found that the Novel Dominant color subband image encryption algorithm performs significantly better than the other existing methods to achieve real-time security in vision sensors. This method takes advantage of having lesser computation time and increased PSNR values, which indicates the higher quality of the images after decryption.
Hybrid Transform Based Speech Band Width Enhancement Using Data Hiding
Authors: Koduri Sunil Kumar , T Kishore Kumar
Published: July 2022

The limited narrow band (LNB) speech signal spread in the range of 300 to 3400Hz used in public switched telephone networks results in poor-quality telephony speech. Bandwidth extension techniques are performed to expand the frequency range from LNB speech to a clear wideband (CWB) speech signal range of 50Hz-7000Hz over existing public telephone networks. In this paper, a novel robust speech bandwidth extension algorithm by Discrete Wavelet Transform- Discrete Cosine Transform- Based Data Hiding (DWT-DCT-DH) Hybrid transform model was used to spread the out-of-band (3400Hz to 7000Hz) speech frequencies over the LNB speech. In this proposed technique the out-of-band speech frequencies are embedded in LNB speech and imperceptibly spread over the network. These Embedded out-of-band speech frequencies are recovered steadily at the receiver end to generate a restored CWB telephony speech of considerably better quality. The proposed technique simulation results show more intelligible and better-quality telephony speech generated compared to the other bandwidth extension techniques.
Android Device Malware Classification Framework Using Multistep Image Feature Extraction and Multihead Deep Neural Ensemble
Authors: Naeem Hamad , Alsirhani Amjad , Alshahrani Mohammed Mujib , Alomari Abdullah
Published: July 2022

The incidence of malicious threats to computer systems has increased with the increasing use of Android devices and high-speed Internet. Malware visualization mechanism can analyze a computer whenever a software or system crash occurs because of malicious activity. This paper presents a new malware classification approach to recognize such Android device malware families by capturing suspicious processes in the form of different size color images. Important local and global characteristics of color images are extracted through a combined local and global feature descriptor (structure based local and statistical based global combined texture analysis) to reduce the training complexity of neural networks. A multihead ensemble of neural networks is proposed to increase network classification performance by merging prediction results from weak learners (convolutional neural network + gated recurrent unit) and using them as learning input to a multi-layer perceptron meta learner. Two public datasets of Android device malware are used to evaluate the classification and detection performance of the proposed approach. A baseline is established to compare the classification performance of the proposed approach with those of state-of-the-art and previous malware detection approaches. The proposed multihead ensemble improved the malware classification performance, with up to 97.8%, accuracy with the R2-D2 dataset and 94.1% accuracy with the MalNet dataset. The overall results show that a multihead ensemble with multi-step feature extraction is a practical approach to classify and detect Android malware.

Published: July 2022

In the recent years, petabytes of data is being generated and uploaded online every second. To successfully detect fake contents, a deepfake detection technique is used to determine whether the uploaded content is real or fake. In this paper, a convolutional neural network-based model is proposed to detect the fake face images. The generative adversarial networks and data augmentation are used to generate the face dataset for real and fake face classification. Transfer learning techniques from pretrained deep models such as VGG16 and ResNet50 are employed in the proposed model. The proposed model is evaluated on three benchmark datasets, namely 140k Real and Fake Faces, Real and Fake Face Detection, and Fake Faces. The proposed model attained accuracies over the three datasets are 95.85%, 53.25%, and 88.63%, respectively. Moreover, to improve the obtained results of the proposed model, we combine it with other pretrained models of VGG16 and ResNet50 to construct deep ensembles. The overall performance is greatly improved with the ensemble model achieving accuracies on the three datasets as 98.79%, 75.79%, and 95.52%, respectively. Furthermore, the obtained results also show that the proposed models have superior performance than existing models.
Knowledge Lost, Knowledge Gained

Published: July 2022

Migrating archival description from paper-based finding aids to structured online data reconfigures the dynamics of archival representation and interactions. This paper considers the knowledge implications of transferring traditional finding aids to Discover Archives, a university-wide implementation of Access to Memory (AtoM) at the University of Toronto. The migration and translation of varied descriptive practices to conform to a single system that is accessible to anyone, anywhere, effectively shifts both where and how users interface with archives and their material. This paper reflects on how different sets of knowledge are reorganized in these shifts. Discover Archives empowers researchers to do independent searches using the full breadth of their domain expertise, seemingly unbound from archival gatekeeping. At the same time, these searches are performed in the absence of archivists' unstructured mediation, where searches benefit from human interaction and the kinds of knowledges that reference staff draw on to handle complex reference questions, especially those from novice archival users. We explore the extent to which that lost knowledge can be drawn back into archival interactions via rich metadata that documents contexts and relationships embedded within Discover Archives and beyond. Internal user experience design (UXD) research on Discover Archives highlights a gap between current online description and habitual user expectations in web search and discovery. To help bridge this gap, we contributed to broader discovery nodes such as linked open "context hubs" like Wikipedia and Wikidata, which can supplement hierarchical description with linked metadata and visualization capabilities. These can reintroduce rhizomatic and serendipitous connections, enabled by archivist, researcher, and larger sets of community knowledges, to the benefit of both the user and the archivist.
Réexamen de l'hypothèse des dèficits jumeaux dans les pays en développement : cas du Congo
Authors: Ngakosso Antoine
Published: July 2022

L'objectif principal de cette recherche est de réexaminer l'hypothèse des déficits jumeaux au Congo en faisant, à la fois, appel à un modèle linéaire et à un modèle à effet de seuil avec la dette publique comme variable de seuil. Les résultats obtenus des deux modèles convergent et confirment l'hypothèse des déficits jumeaux au Congo. A la seule différence, le modèle à effet de seuil a permis de déterminer le seuil de la dette publique de 102,94% à partir duquel le déficit budgétaire fait changer la trajectoire du déficit externe. Ce seuil de la dette publique est largement supérieur au seuil de soutenabilité de la dette publique qui se situe autour de 40%. Cette différence entre les deux seuils de la dette publique a une forte implication en matière de politique économique. Ainsi, pour les niveaux de dette publique inférieurs à 40%, le problème de rééquilibrage du solde extérieur ne se pose pas. Entre 40% et 102,94%, une consolidation budgétaire graduelle est conseillée pour retrouver l'équilibre externe. Au-delà de 102,94%, c'est la thérapie de choc qui devra d'abord être envisagée, par la suite complétée par une consolidation budgétaire graduelle lorsque la dette deviendra inférieure à 102,94%.
Effets de la corruption sur l'activité bancaire en Afrique subsaharienne (AfSS)
Authors: Sawadogo Hamidou
Published: July 2022

Ce papier analyse l'effet de la corruption sur l'activité de crédit bancaire dans un échantillon de 302 banques privées reparties dans de 25 pays d'Afrique subsaharienne sur la période1995 à 2018. Des estimations faites avec la méthode des moments générali- sés, il ressort un effet négatif de la corruption sur le crédit bancaire d'une part, et d'autre part un effet positif de la corruption sur les créances douteuses. Cet effet négatif est vérifié empiriquement même si l'hétérogénéité liée à l'appartenance à une Communauté Écono- mique régionale dans laquelle l'intégration est poussée (CEDEAO) et l'appartenance de la zone Franc CFA est prise en compte. Ces résultats suggèrent que les politiques de lutte contre la corruption sont cruciales pour réduire les retombées négatives générées par un environnement institutionnel de mauvaise qualité sur l'accès au crédit bancaire et la qualité du crédit bancaire.

Plusieurs programmes de subventions ont été initiés au Sénégal pour améliorer la productivité agricole. Ainsi, cet article se propose d'analyser l'impact des subventions de l'engrais sur la productivité des agriculteurs de la Vallée du Fleuve Sénégal. Pour cela, nous utilisons dans un premier temps l'approche des frontières stochastiques pour calculer les scores d'efficience et dans un second temps, un modèle Tobit censuré à deux étapes pour capter l'effet des subventions sur la productivité des producteurs. Les résultats obtenus à partir des données d'enquête collectées auprès de 125 ménages de la Vallée du Fleuve Sénégal indiquent que les programmes de subvention d'engrais ont significativement amélioré la productivité rizicole. Les résultats suggèrent plusieurs mesures allant dans le sens de rendre davantage efficaces ces programmes.
Effet de l'émigration sur la transformation structurelle de la Communauté Économique des États de l'Afrique de l'Ouest
Authors: Gniniguè Moukpè , Tchalim Tom-Irazou
Published: July 2022

L'objectif de cet article est d'étudier l'effet de l'émigration sur la transformation structurelle de la Communauté Économique des États de l'Afrique de l'Ouest (CEDEAO). La transformation structurelle est mesurée par la réallocation de la main-d'œuvre du secteur industriel et du secteur des services. La méthode des moindres carrés ordinaires dynamiques est utilisée et a révélé que l'émigration contribue négativement à la réallo- cation de la main-d'oeuvre du secteur industriel. Seul le taux d'émigration total affecte négativement la réallocation de la main-d'oeuvre du secteur des services. Aucune relation statistique n'existe entre les autres taux d'émigration et la réallocation de la main-d'oeuvre du secteur des services. Les pays de la CEDEAO doivent encourager les politiques axées sur la capitalisation des compétences des émigrants à travers les écoles d'été à l'instar de la Banque Africaine de Développement. Ils doivent également soutenir le développement industriel tout en encourageant la production agricole des biens intermédiaires destinés à la production industrielle. Cette synergie favorise la réallocation de la main-d'oeuvre du secteur agricole vers le secteur industriel puis vers le secteur des services et aboutir à la transformation structurelle des économies, tant souhaitée par l'Union Africaine.

Published: July 2022

L'objectif de ce papier est d'analyser les principaux déterminants susceptibles d'influencer le statut nutritionnel des enfants de moins de cinq ans au Togo. La régression logistique est utilisée pour analyser l'effet des facteurs socioéconomiques sur la malnutrition et ensuite, une méthode de décomposition des facteurs (décomposition d'Oaxaca et de Blinder) a permis d'analyser les sources de l'écart de la prévalence de la malnutrition chronique dans le milieu urbain et rural du Togo. Les données utilisées proviennent de l'enquête MICS, 2017. Les enfants résidant en milieu rural et dont l'âge est compris entre 6 et 59 mois sont susceptibles de manifester le retard de croissance. La richesse des ménages et le niveau d'éducation des mères sont également liés à la malnutrition chronique. Un enfant né avec un intervalle de naissance inférieur ou égal à 2 ans a 59% de chance de manifester le retard de croissance. Les résultats de la décomposition montrent que la différence dans la prévalence du retard de croissance provient des caractéristiques spécifiques à ces milieux. L'écart expliqué dans cette décomposition est en majorité l'inégalité des revenus mesurée par l'indice de richesse.

Published: July 2022

Cet article analyse la concurrence entre les banques et les opérateurs de téléphonie mobile (OTM) dans l'inclusion financière en République Démocratique du Congo (RDC) sur un marché où les services sont différenciés horizontalement. Nous utilisons le modèle de Hotelling (1929), pour étudier les conséquences de cette concurrence sur le développement des services financiers. La conclusion est que la concurrence entre les banques et les OTM ne favorise ni la baisse des prix, ni l'inclusion financière massive. Elle accentue plutôt une diffusion polarisée des services financiers à travers le territoire national, compte tenu des faibles niveaux de revenus de la population et de l'importance du secteur informel qui caractérisent l'économie congolaise.

Published: July 2022

L'objectif de ce papier est d'analyser les déterminants des dépenses publiques de santé en Afrique subsaharienne. A cet effet, un modèle de panel dynamique a été utilisé pour un échantillon de 32 pays d'Afrique subsaharienne couvrant la période 2009 à 2018 subdivisé ensuite en quatre sous-groupes pour une analyse approfondie. L'estimation du modèle à effet fixe et l'approche par l'estimateur SGMM ont été utilisés pour obtenir les résultats dans le contexte africain. Cependant, l'estimateur LSDV-corrigé a été utilisé pour les résultats concernant les différentes régions. Les résultats issus des estimations montrent que les dépenses publiques de santé sont principalement influencées positivement par le produit intérieur brut, les politiques qui visent à améliorer l'état de santé de la population telle que mesurée par les taux de mortalité infantile et infanto-juvénile, la proportion de la population de moins de 15 ans et la densité de la population en milieu rural.
Effets de la stratégie de relance post-COVID-19 de la BCEAO sur les agrégats économiques au Togo
Authors: Aguey Segnon , Ali Yézidou , Agbodji Akoété Ega
Published: July 2022

Les conséquences des mesures barrières anti COVID-19 ont été dommageables sur l'activité économique. Afin de stimuler la relance économique, la BCEAO propose une réduction de 20% de son taux directeur (2,5% à 2%). Notre étude propose une pré-évalua- tion des effets de cette politique monétaire sur les agrégats économiques au Togo. À partir d'un modèle DSGE intégrant les restrictions d'accès au crédit de l'informel, nous analysons les canaux de transmission de la baisse du taux directeur de la BCEAO jusqu'aux agrégats économiques. La réduction de 20% du taux directeur engendrerait une baisse du taux de base des banques commerciales de près de 3%, ce qui stimulera l'investissement pour un effet additionnel de 2% sur la croissance du PIB. Toutefois, la croissance sera essentiellement drai- née par le secteur formel, principal bénéficiaire du crédit additionnel. Le secteur informel en sera même négativement affecté, sous l'hypothèse de la substituabilité des facteurs entre les secteurs d'activité. On note une baisse de 0,9% de l'emploi informel et une réduction de 0,7% de la production informelle. La stratégie de relance de la BCEAO pourrait ainsi permettre aux États de la zone ouest-africaine d'initier un changement structurel pour un meilleur développement autre que celui à forte propension informelle.
Medellín también es rural: experiencias de líderes culturales y artísticos de las montañas
Authors: Ruiz Manco Yorley , Marín Ochoa Beatriz Elena
Published: July 2022

La idea de escribir estas historias nació luego de leer el libro Medellín: memorias de una guerra urbana del Centro Nacional de Memoria Histórica, que acercó a la joven investigadora y a su orientadora y coinvestigadora a esos momentos de violencia que golpearon a la ciudad entre 1980 y 2014, dejando alrededor de 132.000 víctimas. Esta lectura las incitó a formularse nuevas preguntas, tales como: ¿había para ese momento procesos culturales en la zona rural de Medellín?, ¿algunos de esos ayudaron a las comunidades en sus procesos resilientes frente a la violencia?, ¿cómo afectó a estas comunidades esa época de violencia? Fue entonces cuando surgió la idea de recordar que Medellín no solo es una de las ciudades más pobladas del país, sino que también ¡es rural!, pues el 70% de su territorio lo es, distribuido en cinco corregimientos. Así fue como con hambre de historias surgió este proceso.

Authors: ÜNAL Simay , KARAGÖZOĞLU COŞKUNSU Dilber , HATIK Sefa Haktan , ÖZDEN Ali Veysel
Published: July 2022

Objectives: To evaluate the effect of auricular vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) applied in addition to ischemic compression and stretching exercises on pain, trigger point (TP) sensitivity, grip strength, quality of life and autonomic functions in patients with myofascial pain syndrome (MPS).
Methods: Sixty patients, who had neck pain, met the diagnostic MPS criteria of Travell and Simons were included in the study. The subjects were randomly divided into VNS group (n = 30) or control group (n = 30). Each group performed 10 sessions of TP ischemic compression and stretching exercises (5 days/week). Ten sessions of 30-minute long auricular VNS were added to the treatment in VNS group. Pain severity [Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)], TP sensitivity (algometer), grip strength (Jamar dynamometer), quality of life [Short Form-36 (SF-36)] and autonomic function [Composite Autonomic Symptom Scale-31 (Compass-31)] were evaluated before and after 10 sessions of treatment.
Results: The VAS, algometer and Jamar measurements showed significant improvement in both groups. A statistically significant improvement was found in orthostatic intolerance, secretomotor and pupillomotor subscales of Compass-31 scale in the VNS group following the treatment (p < 0.05) while no significant difference was observed in the control group (p > 0.05). The control group showed significant improvement in all parameters of SF-36 scale, while the VNS group showed significant improvement in physical function, social functionality and pain parameters (p < 0.05). The changes in the VAS, algometer, Jamar scores and secretomotor subscale of the Compass-31 scale were statistically higher in the VNS group than in the control group (p < 0.001, p < 0.001, p = 0.001 and p = 0.011, respectively).
Conclusions: It can be argued that auricular VNS increases the effectiveness of ischemic compression and stretching exercises in patients with MPS. Further and detailed studies are needed in which the effect of VNS alone or in combination with other treatments in patients with MPS is examined and the physiological mechanisms are investigated.

Accounting is a set of practices that are influenced by the world and social realities. Therefore, the values of people's beliefs are needed in its application. The problem in this study is how accounting practices are based on the Ahlussunnah Wal-Jama'ah (Aswaja) values. This study aims to construct accounting practices derived from the values of Ahlussunnah Wal-Jama'ah. This research used an interpretive paradigm and a case study approach at the Nahdlatul Ulama College. The data analysis modified the Seidel and Yin approaches. The findings of this study are the basic values of Ahlussunnah Wal-Jama'ah An-Nahdliyah have an impact on social behavior which consists of the values of I'tidal, Tawassuth, Tawazun, Tasamuh and amar ma'ruf nahi munkar. Accounting that reflects these values includes obedience to principles, conformity of the budget with work programs and strategic plans, clarity of the accounting system, use of the concept of budget deliberation, fikroh islahiyah, principle of balance, accounting markaziyah, taqiya, and honesty.
REFORMULATION OF THE SOCIAL SAFETY NET: A CONCEPTUAL APPROACH BASED ON QUR’ANIC VALUES
Authors: Hidayati Tri Wahyu
Published: July 2022

This paper aims to find out a conceptual approach to the social safety net in the Qur’an and some essential values that can be realized as role models in contemporary modern life. This study investigates several significant questions, such as how the Qur'an argues for taking sides with the disadvantaged people, and what instruments are outlined by the Qur'an as the main support for the implementation of social safety nets. These questions are approached contextually and critically by examining primary texts, such as verses of the Qur'an that talk about the topic, to be interpreted thematically-contextually. Meanwhile, secondary texts are used as interpretive supports to enrich perspectives in reconstructing and reformulating the idea of a social safety net based on the Qur'anic values. This study concludes; first, even though the Qur’an does not mention explicitly the term social safety net, the teachings of the social safety net are implicitly embodied in the Qur’an. Second, some fundamental instruments in the Qur’an can be realized as supporting systems for social safety nets, such as zakah, kafarat, infaq, sadaqah, qurban, dam and fidyah, fai’, and ghanimah. Third, the Qur’anic concept of social safety net engages with five principles, namely expanse and balance, justice and equity, spirituality and productivity, sustainability and empowerment, and dynamic and systematic. Thus, the concept of the social safety net in the Qur’an is a comprehensive approach, not only for the short term but also for the long term, not only consumptive-giving but also productive-empowering.

Disease prevention is almost always done with a modern approach through medical science or other public health sciences. This approach is the primary reference in mitigating the spread of the disease. In fact, in Indonesian society, there are local wisdoms in the traditions of each ethnic group in tackling the spread of disease, for example, the Javanese tradition. Javanese culture has local wisdom in dealing with pandemics passed down from generation to generation. This study attempts to answer how the mitigation pattern in Javanese culture is. Anthropologically, pandemics can be studied under health anthropology on disease. By taking the case of the Javanese people in Indonesia, this article describes local ways of preventing and overcoming disease outbreaks or mitigating disease outbreaks. The data source of this article is produced from qualitative research through interview techniques, focus group discussions, online seminars, and the study of manuscripts from magazines published in Java. The results showed that local communities, in addition to knowing the causes of disease, also developed ways to prevent and eliminate diseases, and mitigate outbreaks and pandemics. Javanese people see the mitigation of diseases physically and psychically. Physical mitigation tends to be in line with modern medical methods and the application of new normal. The mitigation of psychics is done by using mantras and songs and developing Javanese attitude of “narima ing pandum”  (take it as it comes).

The objective of this study was to examine the fuzzy c-means clustering (FCM) method to establish the optimum cluster accuracy of zakat potential in Indonesia. A spatial mapping approach is also suggested and can be considered as the first step in knowing the distribution of zakat potential in Indonesia. Furthermore, strategies that can be implemented are formulated to increase zakat collection in Indonesia. Potential zakat data from the National Amil Zakat Agency (Baznas) in 2020 consisting of bank deposits, salaries, agricultural products, plantation products, and staple foods. Each province in Indonesia is used as the proposed variable. In this paper, firstly collecting data on indicators of potential zakat. Second, the FCM clustering algorithm. Third, the results of the FCM grouping are visualized in the form of a mapping. This novel mapping study with FCM was applied in order to analyze clustering accuracy. The FCM results confirm 2 optimum clusters for zakat potential in Indonesia where cluster 2 has more members than cluster 1. Besides, the second cluster only has one variable that has a high value, namely agricultural products, while the rest is in the first cluster. This indicates that the first cluster has a higher potential for zakat. The application of fuzzy c-means (FCM) to obtain the optimum cluster on zakat potential to produce a mapping of zakat potential is a novelty in the field of Islamic economic studies. Finally, the results of the analysis with this approach provide optimum results to strengthen the zakat collection strategy in Indonesia.
Psychosocial and Demographic Factors Associated with Requesting and Not Requesting Accommodations Among Employees with Multiple Sclerosis
Authors: Dong Shengli , Mamboleo George
Published: July 2022

Individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS) face many workplace challenges. There are various laws that are intended to protect these individuals to have equal access to employment by requiring employers to provide workplace accommodations. To achieve benefits of workplace accommodations, individuals with MS need to disclose their disabilities and request accommodations. Limited research has examined psychosocial and demographic factors associated with requesting or not requesting workplace accommodations among people with MS. The current study aimed to fill this research gap. Eighty-six individuals with MS were recruited from agencies serving people with MS. Regarding psychosocial factors, findings show that requesters, in comparison with non-requesters, reported higher scores in self-efficacy (e.g., requesting accommodation and goal setting), outcome expectancy (e.g., perceived appropriateness and personal cost of accommodation requests), positive affect, knowledge of ADA and accommodations, job satisfaction, and a lower score in negative affect. Among demographic factors, only job tenure was significant. Rehabilitation professionals may need to assist employees with MS to foster psychosocial factors to facilitate individuals with MS, especially those with a short job tenure request accommodations and fully advantage of available workplace resources to enhance their job retention and satisfaction.
Always at the Ready: Fears, Threats, and Unsafe Gun Storage in Households With Children
Authors: Warner Tara D.
Published: July 2022

Guns are present in many households in the U.S., including those with children. Safe storage of guns at home can mitigate the increased risks of both the unintentional and intentional injury that in-home gun access presents; yet estimates suggest fewer than half of gun owners store their weapon(s) safely. Unsafe storage in homes with children is especially problematic given that gun-owning parents make incorrect assumptions about both children’s awareness of firearm storage locations, and their actions upon encountering an unsecured gun. There is limited identification and understanding of why some parents do not engage in safe storage practices. Using 2019 survey data from an internet-based sample of gun-owning adults with children at home, this study explores various potential correlates of unsafe storage. Findings suggest that unsafe storage occurs not in response to crime/victimization fears, but from broader, group- and status-based threats. Understanding the complex factors preventing gun-owning parents from implementing safe storage practices has important implications for both victimization scholarship and public health/injury prevention efforts.

Children's strains, parents' pains? How adult children's union dissolution influences older parents' health
Authors: Uccheddu Damiano , Van Gaalen Ruben
Published: July 2022

Objective: This study aimed at investigating gender differences in the longitudinal associations between adult children’s union dissolution and older parents’ health.
Background: The family life course perspective and theories of social stress suggest that adult children's union dissolution may affect a parent's health. However, the extent to which parental health changes before and after a child’s separation is still barely investigated.
Method: Data from four waves of the Dutch component of the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) were linked to panel register data from the System of Social-statistical Datasets (SSD). We applied a fixed-effects approach to 4,985 parent-child dyads nested in 2,511 parents to assess the influence of children’s union dissolution on three different measures of parental health (depression, grip strength, and frailty).
Results: Results indicated that parents' health conditions worsen as one of their children gets separated. In addition, we found anticipation effects of children's union dissolution on parental health. Among parents, no clear gender differences emerged. The separation of a son exerts a stronger burden on parental health than that of a daughter.
Conclusion: This research contributes new findings, expanding the small existing body of literature to both physical and mental health outcomes. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of focusing on both the period before and after a child's separation. Gender-related differences help to understand the pathways to poor health at older ages.
