Published: July 2022

This study aims to examine and analyze the Judge’s application of imprisonment to kleptomaniacs based on Decision No. 574/Pid.B/2019/PN.Dps. This study uses a normative juridical research method. The data was collected using literature study techniques on primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. The collected legal material is then analyzed using qualitative data analysis methods with a statute approach and a case approach which will then conclude the object of the research. The results show that the Judge’s application of imprisonment to the accused is based on Decision No. 574/Pid.B/2019/PN.Dps was the right decision. In this case, the problem of kleptomania currently ongoing in court should be proven with a Psychiatric Visum et Repertum. While the Letter of Statement No. 01/II.MR/RSPI/2019 cannot be the basis for the implementation of eliminating punishment. To determine that a person has kleptomania must undergo a process of examination for a minimum of two weeks to three months. Therefore, it is recommended that investigators provide the opportunity or take the initiative to prove the suspect’s mental condition before being processed to the following legal proof stage. So no more accused who prove their status as kleptomaniacs using the letter of statement. The Judge is also recommended to decide by giving measures sanction to the accused if proven to have kleptomania to avoid the recurrence of the crime of theft in the future.

Published: July 2022

The problem in this research is the public response against the Balinese ngurek tradition. This research discusses the reinterpretation of a Hindu religious ritual in Bali, namely the ngurek ritual or often referred to as ngunying. This religious ritual is quite unique and extreme so it has many meanings. This type of research is a qualitative research with reference to Stuart Hall's encoding-decoding theory. This data collection was obtained through youtube with comments and also the results of interviews with one of the informants. Data analysis with data reduction, data presentation and conclusion drawing. The results of this study indicate that the topics that appear in the comments are not limited to traditional rituals. The material also involves involvement and controversy between the religious rituals of ngurek and Hindu rituals in Bali simultaneously. The new thing that can be known is that the ngurek tradition is an ancient Balinese custom, where a spirit invitation ceremony is held. The spirits are asked to enter into the designated body and be a sign that the invited spirit will be present. The ngurek tradition is also believed to invite Ida Bhatara and Rereancang (his soldiers) to receive offerings during the ceremony.

Published: July 2022

Effect of Pantogam active subchronic administration (200 mg/kg/day, i.p.) on the behavior of outbred CD-1 mice in the experimental model of attention deficit disorder was studied in the "closed enriched cross maze" test. Pantogam active corrected the initial attention deficit of ED-low rodents subpopulation without changing other parameters of their behavior. Analysis of the results of radioligand binding revealed statistically significant differences in the distribution of D2 and GABAB-receptors in the brain structures of outbred CD-1 mice subpopulations. In the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of ED-low control group with reduced attention level, compared with ED-high control, density of D2 receptors was higher by 18 %, while density of GABAB receptors was lower by 35 %. Administration of pantogam active resulted in decreasing of D2 receptors density by 23 % and increasing of this indicator by 42 % for GABAB- receptors in the PFC of ED-low animals, respectively. Thus, this studied drug has potential efficacy in treating attention deficit in experimental animals, normalizes behavior and possible molecular markers of this pathology.

METHOD OF SUBSTANTIATION OF REQUIREMENTS FOR SURVIVABILITY OF A PROMISING AUTOMATED TROOP CONTROL SYSTEM
Authors: Kirsanov S.
Published: July 2022

The article is devoted to the development of a method for substantiating the requirements for the survivability of a promising automated command and control system. It is known that one of the priority tasks of the country's defense is the creation of an effective command and control system for the Armed Forces of Ukraine based on modern information technologies. But, despite this, its current state, for a number of reasons, does not fully meet the requirements for it. An important reason for this state of the command and control system of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is the imperfection of the methodological apparatus that is used in the study of the command and control process and the justification of the requirements for a promising ACS. One of these important requirements is the requirement for its survivability. The currently existing methods for substantiating the requirements for the survivability of a promising ACCS do not have a single ideology of construction and do not allow studying the functioning of the ACCS in time under the conditions of the complex active influence of the enemy. To achieve the goal of the article, its author has developed a new method, the feature of which, which determines its novelty, is that it provides a comprehensive account of the enemy’s influence on the survivability of control points of a promising automated control system in two main areas: fire damage to control points and radio suppression of ultrashort-wave, short-wave radio communication channels with control points. The method is based on a mathematical model of failure of the control points of a promising automatic control system due to fire damage by the enemy and its restoration. This model, unlike the existing ones, allows you to determine the change in the state of the control system over time. Also substantiated is the relationship between the number of required ultra-shortwave, short-wave radio communication channels with the launcher of a promising automated control system and their reliability.

Published: July 2022

One of the unpublished letters of S. P. Shevyrev is stored in the RGALI with a note — “to an unidentified person with the address ‘Mikhail Nikolaevich’ dated January 11, b/g”. References and mentions in the letter allow us to name the addressee and the date of the address to him with absolute accuracy: Shevyrev wrote to Mikhail Nikolaevich Pokhvisnev, censor of the Moscow Censorship Committee, on January 11, 1855. In turn, the real circumstances of its origin disclosed in the commentary to the document shed light on several not quite clear episodes from the history of Russian culture in the mid-19th century, including preparations for the centennial of Moscow University, and also provide important details of the last decade of Shevyrev's life.
Tragedy of self-awareness of man of culture in “Trefoils” by I. F. Annensky
Authors: Shevchuk Yulia V.
Published: July 2022

The paper suggests new interpretations of the final “Trefoils” from the poetic book of I. F. Annensky “Cypress Chest”. The author emphasizes that the issue of self-awareness of a contemporary and, accordingly, the task of comprehending the origins of the tragic worldview of human culture of the late 19 – early 20 century is a structure-forming in the final work of Annensky. This work does not touch upon the contents and composition of the book published after the death of the poet, but proposes a general concept of the interpretation of “Trefoils” and — in general terms — the entire “Cypress Chest”, in lyrical form generalizing the cultural, sociological and philosophical reflections of the author, appearing as a deep intellectual and sensitive symbolist lyricist. To capture the multifaceted and rationally verified accuracy of Annensky's lyrical works, combined on the principle of including them in large cycles (“Trefoils”, “Folders”, “Marked Sheets”) and mini-cycles (three and two poems each), is possible involving the artist's entire heritage. Interpreting motifs and individual images that gain additional meaning at each new level of the book's structure, and within the framework of a separate poem sound self-sufficient and full-fledged, is necessary primarily in the context of literary criticism of Annensky and his works in terms of the study of antiquity. The confessionality of the poet's tragic lyrics lies in а complex representation of the inner world of a man of culture at the turn of the century, who conquered the spiritual peaks of the world of “ideas”, but lost direct perception of the world of “ideas”, without which love, beauty and virtue born in torment become conditional categories.
Alphabet of trees of Russian literature: image of the white willow and its folklore parallels
Authors: Dudareva Marianna A.
Published: July 2022

The paper attempts to comprehensively describe the image of the white willow in Russian literature and folklore. This image is embedded in the world “tree alphabet”, which was written by the English ethnographer and poet Robert Graves. The scientist recreated such an alphabet, referring to different cultural traditions and paying great attention to Greek culture. In the Russian national image of the world, the archetype of a tree occupies a special place; the tree embodies world axis and symbolizes a certain border between the worlds. The white willow is related to willow and rakita, which is associated with the “other kingdom” (the texts of lullabies are indicative of this). In Russian literature, the image of the willow is frequent: it is found in the works of V. Zhukovsky, I. A. Bunin and M. Gorky, and in poetry of the 20th century, as well as in modern literature, in the artistic world of V. Dudarev. The methodology of this study consists in a holistic analysis of a literary text using structural, typological and comparative methods of research. The concept of “folklore” is not understood narrowly, since we are going beyond verbal forms of creativity, taking into account myth, ritual, and ritual. The image of the veil is placed in a wide context of the world culture.
Comprehension of linguocultural potential of Slavic mythological birds` names in Russian lyrics of the 20th century
Authors: Zaitseva Irina P.
Published: July 2022

The paper analyzes the principles of introducing in lyrical contexts (in individual author’s interpretation) of the images of magic birds, representing one of the sectors of the East Slavic mythological space: images of Sirin and Alkonost. Based on the material of lyric works of a number of authors of the twentieth century. (B. K. Semenov, V. A. Rozhdestvensky, M. Vega) the study demonstrated how poets develop the tradition of a “twofold” (in their close relationship) understanding of these images, laid down by the lyrics of A. Blok, which, in turn, goes back to ideas formed over a long period of time in a linguistic picture of the world of the Eastern Slavs. In keeping with this tradition, Sirin and Alkonost symbolize opposite states of the human soul, which the representative of the Slavic culture often experiences as interacting inextricably, complementing and conditioning each other. The development of this tradition by lyricists of the twentieth century is carried out in accordance with an individual author's way, which in each case gives the lyrical work a conceptual aesthetic and linguistic-stylistic originality. It appears that the results obtained represent an interest for further research both in the field of stylistics of artistic speech as in the field of ethnolinguistics.
Spiritual and aesthetic nature of Russian art
Authors: Tsvetaeva Marina N. , Gubareva Oksana V.
Published: July 2022

The paper examines theoretical foundations of the Russian culture and art, for which the authors propose the term “theology of secular art”. This approach acts as an organic analytical view of the past of Russian culture, which opens up the prospect of its development in the future. Using the example of Russian art at the turn of the century, the authors talk about the issues of the ideal, the search for the highest truth, and God-seeking as the key ones, showing that at any stage, even when art seems to completely turn away from God in his Christian understanding, it does not ignore the problems of spirituality and God-seeking. The authors call these critical moments the key ones, metaphorically defining them as a “descent into hell”, necessary to discern the stages of God-making and God-fighting that have Christian origins. In the same theological vein, the study highlights the peculiarities of the national psychologism of the Russian culture of the 19th–20th centuries on the example of the portrait and landscape genre. Therefore, the ontological meaning of the works, their main distinguishing feature is connected with the reflection of spiritual life, the relationship between man and God. The systematic theological approach to secular Russian culture, based on the principle of integrity and Christian trichotomy, most fully reflects the genesis of its cultural and religious meanings, the spiritual and aesthetic continuity of its development, the complex movement towards Truth and utopias.

Published: July 2022

Historical textiles of folk costume is a cultural heritage of Russia. Each area, each nationality has its own features of cut and decorative decorations in the form of embroidery. Embroidery is one of the folklore directions of folk art that was expressively manifested in a historical peasant costume. This paper examined a woman's shirt from the Tver province, sewn in the 19th century. Rubakha is essential to peasant clothes — it plays the role of both everyday work clothes and an element of a festive costume. A special place is occupied by embroidery, which is a kind of symbolic, sacred language, not only protecting the wearer of clothing from evil forces, but transmitting information from the deep antiquity and indicating the geography of origin. It seems noteworthy that embroidery is a kind of chronicle of generations, a cipher that is in fact a message for the future. There are obvious signs, such as the sun, the tree of life, and there are those that must be interpreted and understood in terms of the era when these symbols were embroidered. During the restoration of the studied shirt, the task was not only to restore the appearance with minimal interference with the material, but also to investigate the origin of the embroidery patterns. A comparative study of the features of embroidery of various districts and shirts` cuts made it possible to attribute the object under study and discover interesting facts from the life of the area under study. Restoration work on this shirt is also aimed at removing spots of various origin (rust, sweat, sharpening), to eliminate breaks and deformation.
Features of mass culture in works for guitar by Russian composers of the 20th century
Authors: Finkelshtein Yulia A.
Published: July 2022

The influence of subculture is characteristic for academic works of the 20th century, including those written for a six-string guitar and compositions with a guitar part. Many authors have recognized the instrument as an attribute of mass culture since the Middle Ages. Democracy as a historical property of the guitar leaves its mark on academic music that addresses it. Having never been a part of orchestras before, guitar becomes a permanent and almost the main member of the jazz ensemble. The paper discusses the diversity of embodiment of the features of mass culture in academic Russian guitar works of the 20th century. Melodic and harmonic features of the proletarian song are introduced by composers of the Soviet period (Asafyev, Shebalin, Retchmensky, Kamaldinov) into guitar opuses. The author shows that the instrument is perceived by composers of the second half of the century as a phenomenon of mass culture, and therefore the introducing of guitar into the score entails the use of means from its arsenal — melodic-harmonic, rhythmic, textured, compositional. The specifics of the film industry express themselves in the introduction of a part of the soundtrack into the work, the use of montage techniques. The study revealed that the influence of pop music and jazz styles manifests itself in pieces for the guitar solo by composers of the second half of the 20th century, whose style is formed on the basis of performance (Vinitsky, Rudnev, Koshkin, Kozlov).
Perlis State Soil Series: Plant Available Water, Field Capacity, Permanent Wilting Point, and its Uncertainty
Authors: Sunny Goh  , Mohammad Fadhli Ahmad
Published: July 2022

Hydrological cycle is affecting the recycling of water in the human sphere. A smaller scale of the environment like Perlis state is also in constant exchange of water with its surrounding environment like atmospheric air, soil, groundwater, lake, and river. This study focusses on the Perlis state soil. Water enters the soil because of rainfall event. The event is known as water infiltration. However, human activities like irrigation have speed up the exchange of water in the soils resulting not only bulk water movement but also chemical transports such as pesticide, herbicide, nutrients, and other soluble substances. This study is intended study the water carrying capacity of the Perlis soils, i.e. field capacity, permanent wilting point, and plant available water to demonstrate the amount of water that can be supplied to the soil without any wastage. The study identifies ten soil series in Perlis state that can be broadly divided into five categories. Among the soil series, Chengai, Kangar, Hutan, Sogomana, Gajah Mati, Kundor, and Tualang soil series were found to constitute the highest plant available water that it could store more water for crop usage than the other soil series. Also, the study investigates the uncertainty of plant available water caused by different input parameters within one standard deviation. The study concludes that crop irrigation at field capacity was necessary to avoid water wastage than irrigation at fully saturated soil water content.

The drying system is an important part for food and herbs preservation. Therefore, an effective drying system are needed to ensure the increase the shelf life of the food and herb without degrade its good nutrient and bioactive compound. In this study, Orthosiphon stamineus herb was used to dry using an Infrared dryer and combination of Pulsed UV light treatment + Infrared drying. Infrared drying involves transferring heat by radiation from a hot source to a lower-temperature substance that has to be heated or dried, meanwhile the pulsed UV light is a non-thermal treatment. The temperature of the heated element determines the peak wavelength of the radiation. The objective of this study is to design an infrared dryer system and analyze the quality of the dried herb. The Orthosiphon Stamineus have been dried using a 200W Infrared dryer system at 60°C. Total phenolic compounds and antioxidant capacity were determined using the Folin-Ciocalteu method and the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging activity assay measured using a UV/VIS Spectrophotometer. A moisture analyzer was used to look at the changes in moisture content, and a colorimeter was used to look at the colour changes. The result showed that drying Orthosiphon stamineus by using an Infrared dryer and combination of Pulsed UV light treatment + Infrared drying under 60°C has significantly affected the herbal leaves quality in terms of moisture content, colour properties, Antioxidant capacity, and Total phenolic content.

A cerebral aneurysm is the dilation of an arterial wall and mostly occurs at the weak point in the arterial circulation in the brain. Approximately 85% of aneurysms are in the anterior circulation, predominately at junctions, or bifurcations along the circle of Willis. Several studies have been conducted by researchers to analyse the blood flow characteristic and flow on the aneurysmal wall, however, there are small numbers of research focus on the fusiform aneurysm and the effect of temperature on the blood flow inside the aneurysm. Thus, this study aims to analyse the body temperature effect on hemodynamic parameters in the fusiform aneurysm. Three different models of the fusiform aneurysm based on patient-specific geometries have been developed and simulated. The computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method was imposed in this study to analyse the effect of hemodynamic variables on the different body temperatures by analysing the Wall Shear Stress (WSS) and Oscillatory Shear Index (OSI) at the fusiform aneurysmal wall. The result shows that the WSS values fluctuate with the temperature variations and were observed lowest low at the anterior fusiform aneurysm. The OSI indicates similar results for each physiological condition with the variation of temperature. The high value of WSS and low value of OSI increase the possibility of an aneurysmal wall being ruptured.

This study aimed to analyze the effect of inlet temperature and airflow direction variation of a spray dryer on the product’s water content and minimum droplet temperature using the means of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The airflow direction types were mixed and co-current. To simulate the flow, the k-ω SST and standard k-ε models were utilized, and the Eulerian-Lagrangian approach was used to estimate particle motion. The simulation results showed that water content reduced as temperature climbed for both airflow directions and vice versa for the minimum droplet temperature. With droplets diameters of 10 μm and 30 μm and an inlet temperature of 180°C, both mixed flow and co-current flow spray dryer generated the lowest water content (0%) output. The lowest minimum droplet temperature (32.73°C) occurred in the mixed flow spray dryer with an inlet temperature of 100°C.

Published: July 2022

Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) is a renewable technology application for vehicle power sources that is a viable challenger for a safe and efficient power generation. Nanofluids adoption is one of the advancements in PEMFC heat management. In addition to that, Bio Glycol is also introduced as a non-toxic, renewable fluid with 30% lower viscosity than regular petroleum-derived propylene glycol at low temperatures. The 0.5% volume concentration of hybrid nanofluids of Aluminium Oxide (Al2O3) and Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) in water:BG at 60:40 volume ratio was investigated in this work. This paper investigated the heat transfer improvement and the pumping power effect in mini channel of PEMFC distributor and serpentine cooling plate with the adoption of hybrid Al2O3 and SiO2 nanoparticles in water: Bio Glycol (BG). The simulation conducted using ANSYS Fluent, under laminar region of 300 to 1800 and constant heat flux of 6500 (W/m2) to imitate the heat generation in a PEMFC bipolar plate. The : ratios used were 10:90, 30:70, 50:50, and 70:30. The findings suggested that : (30:70) in water: BG provides the highest improvement of 14.4% in the serpentine cooling plate and 20.9% in the distributor cooling plate at Re 1800. However, the pressure drop for both plates was increased up to 7 times greater than the base fluid. The advantage ratio was then calculated to assess the feasibility of nanofluids in PEMFC cooling plates. As a conclusion it was recommended that the serpentine cooling plate outperforms the distributor cooling plate in terms of both heat transfer and pumping power need

Published: July 2022

El propósito de este trabajo es analizar la relevancia que tuvo la prensa de mediados del siglo XIX e inicios del XX para el proceso de conformación de la esfera artística local, puntualmente en su rama de las artes gráficas. Para ello, se revisa en detalle lo acontecido a mediados del 1800 con El Correo Literario, e inicios del 1900 con Zig-Zag, en las cuales se desempeñaron como dibujantes Antonio Smith (1832-1877) y Pedro Subercaseaux (1880-1956), respectivamente. Ambas publicaciones introdujeron las ilustraciones y la sátira, marcando una auténtica innovación tanto para el circuito general de la prensa, como para los públicos lectores de dichos momentos históricos. El supuesto de este artículo plantea que el beneficio inmediato que esto produjo para la producción periodística impulsó también el surgimiento e instalación de un circuito de caricaturistas reconocidos, quienes en su mayoría provenían del mundo de las artes plásticas.

Voces de inmigrantes italianos en los Estados Unidos y Argentina
Authors: Sanhueza María Teresa
Published: July 2022

Este artículo describe, por un lado, el proyecto de investigación y difusión de las experiencias vividas por inmigrantes italianos que dejaron Italia para aventurarse al nuevo mundo a finales del siglo XIX y comienzos del XX; personajes que anónimamente construyeron las naciones a las que llegaron. Además, profundiza en el proceso de adopción de ciertas herramientas tecnológicas para el estudio y difusión de esta materia.
El estudio de la imagen del inmigrante italiano de comienzos del siglo XX es un tema particularmente interesante, al que hay que aproximarse desde múltiples perspectivas. Una de ellas, la historia, analiza la inmigración italiana como números; datos que globalizan el fenómeno sin presentar las narrativas individuales. Tampoco se detiene a explicar o difundir el cómo se desarrollaba la vida de la gente común durante los grandes eventos históricos, es decir, durante los pequeños momentos en los que la vida cotidiana es la protagonista. Estas historias —con su correspondiente documentación— son fundamentales para entender el proceso inmigratorio cuando se analiza en pequeña escala, a nivel de individuos. Debido a ello, con ayuda de los avances tecnológicos en digitalización, se ha creado un sitio digital académico en el cual se difunden estas historias y comparan las experiencias de estos inmigrantes en las Américas. La página digital “Voces de inmigrantes italianos: Un viaje de descubrimiento” es un proyecto que combina investigación histórica, genealógica y de archivo complementada con sociología, narrativas orales e historia social.

Published: July 2022

Elcampo de la pedagogía tiene como misión la formación del ser humano;por tal motivo, es necesario comprender las diferentes concepciones sobre didáctica que se han desarrollado a lo largo de la educación para poder cumplir con los objetivos, fines, o propósitos que gestiona cualquier currículo,como política educativa odocumento que recoge las intencionalidades de un sistema educativo.Por lo tanto,el presente artículotiene como finalidadanalizar,desdediferentes concepcionespedagógicasy filosóficas,la didácticay sus relaciones con la Educación Física en el Sistema Educativo Venezolano. En atención a ello,se recurrióa la investigación documental para el análisis de diferentes documentos, referentes teóricos y legales. De esta manera,se tiene como resultado quela enseñanza de la Educación Física es un proceso complejo,mediado por el currículo como documento que guía la práctica pedagógica;donde es necesario valorar cada uno de los momentos de la clase de la Educación Física,conjuntamente con el ciclo didáctico para laenseñanza de las conductas motrices. Del mismo modo, es vital emplear adecuadamente los principios,tanto pedagógicos como didácticos,durante el desarrollo de la enseñanza de la Educación Física,para lograr un verdadero alcance de los fines planteados en esta área. Finalmente, la reflexión seguirá siendo punto de partida para adecuar y mejorar continuamente la práctica pedagógica y los procesos didácticosque constituyen esta área de aprendizaje.
Acceptance rate of COVID-19 vaccination and its predictors in Egypt: An online survey
Authors: Salem Ghada M , Said Randa M , Abdelsalam Amira E
Published: July 2022

Introduction: Public acceptance, understanding, and trust are some significant challenges facing COVID-19 vaccine coverage. Our study objective was to assess the acceptance rate of COVID-19 vaccination and its predictors among the Egyptian adult population.

Methods: An online survey was conducted on 1,053 participants from six randomly selected governorates in Egypt between March and April 2021 using an Arabic self-administrated questionnaire, developed using the Google Form App.

Results: Out of the 1,053 participants surveyed, 321 (31.5%) reported that they would accept taking the vaccine when it is available. The main reasons for refusing COVID-19 vaccination were doubt in vaccine effectiveness (80%), lack of trust due to rapid vaccine production (70%), deficiency of information about the vaccine (66%), and fear of vaccine side effects (55%). Regression analysis concluded that previous history of influenza vaccination (p = 0.01), perceived vaccine effectiveness (0.00), vaccine price (p = 0.02), and doctors’ recommendation to take the vaccine (p = 0.03) were the only significant predictors of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance.

Conclusions: Low level of COVID-19 vaccination acceptance has been shown among the Egyptian population. To expand vaccination acceptance and coverage, the government should promote vaccine confidence by increasing the availability of clear, precise, and up-to-date information addressing public concerns. It should also provide free vaccinations and should reach out to doctors for promoting the vaccine.
Congenital neurosyphilis presenting as neonatal sepsis

Published: July 2022

Introduction: Congenital syphilis involves any organs with various symptoms, including neurological signs. Neurosyphilis is a severe syphilis complication that can develop at any stage of illness.

Case presentation: A 2,520 g male infant was spontaneously born at term from an untreated syphilis mother. Physical examination revealed decreased consciousness, respiratory distress, seizure, but without neurologic abnormality sign. The serum and cerebrospinal fluid Venereal Disease Research Laboratory and Treponemal Pallidum Hemagglutination Assay TPHA tests titters were 1:16 and 1:1,280, respectively. The diagnosis at admission was respiratory failure and neonatal sepsis. The infant was mechanically ventilated and treated with early management of sepsis. Blood culture was sterile later on. Then, the infant was administered intramuscular benzathine penicillin G (50,000 units/kg/dose) for a total of three weeks. The infant's condition was improved during the treatment.

Conclusions: There are many challenges associated with screening and monitoring neurosyphilis in congenital syphilis. Congenital syphilis presenting as sepsis is easily misdiagnosed as bacterial sepsis.

Ta–Si–C–N single-layer films have been synthesized by direct current magnetron sputtering on fused quartz substrates. The structural perfection of the films has been studied using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy. The optical parameters of the films have been studied using multi-angle spectrophotometry. The spectral dependences of the transmission coefficients of substrates and structures were measured for normal incidence of light in the wavelength range 200–2500 nm. We show that the transmittance spectrum of the specimen has an oscillating pattern due to interference phenomena that are typical for layered structures. The reflectance of the films and the substrates has been measured in the 200–2500 nm region for small incidence angles. The difference between the reflection coefficient at the maximum of the interference of the film and the corresponding reflection coefficient of the substrate at the same wavelength shows that the absorption in the film is low. A formula for determination of the film absorption index based on the measured parameters has been derived. The experimental and calculated data have been used for plotting the absorption spectra of the substrate, structure and film. Discrete refractive indices in the 400–1200 nm region have been calculated for reflections at two incidence angles by determining the positions of interference maxima in the reflectivity spectral responses. The results have been approximated using the Cauchy equation. The film thickness has been estimated to be df = 1046 nm ± 13%. The spectra of film extinction coefficients have been plotted with and without allowance for reflection. Obtained values of the refractive and absorption indices with and without reflection have been summarized in a table.
When Holistic Admissions Review Is Not Enough: Barriers to Diversity
Authors: Zimnicki Katherine M. , Aaron Kristina S. , McQuillen Elizabeth P. , Palma Amanda L. , Sikora Greg V. , Carter Erik V.
Published: July 2022

Background:

Patient populations are increasingly diverse; however, the health care workforce often fails to reflect the diversity of the populations it serves. Holistic admission review (HAR) has been proposed as a strategy to diversify the student body and create a more diverse workforce.

Method:

This article describes the development, application, and evaluation of a holistic admissions process for freshman undergraduates admitted directly to a College of Nursing located in a nonaffirmative action state.

Results:

There was an increase in the diversity of applicants; however, the selected metric of SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test)/ACT (American College Test) scores resulted in a decrease in the number of qualified applicants. This decrease disproportionately affected underrepresented students, illustrating that the inability to consider race, ethnicity, or gender continues to restrict the admission of a diverse student body even with HAR.

Conclusion:

Our findings highlight the need to consider all aspects of HAR, particularly the effect of the chosen metrics on the applicant pool.
