Muhammad Iqbal and Grman Idealism: A Comparative Review
Authors: Tahir Sobia , Maqsood Sidra
Published: June 2023

The phrase Idealism is not new for the students and readers of Philosophy, however, when the prefix German is added before it, it acquires a different meaning, mood, taste and inclination. German Idealism is distinguished from all other forms of European Idealisms. It concentrated on mind as an active and self-conscious entity. German Idealists suppressed the traditional ontologies based on substances and their accidents. The most prominent German Idealists include I - Immanuel Kant (1724-1804), II- Johann Gottelib Fichte (1762-1814), III-Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Von Schelling (1775-1854) and IV- George Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770-1831).

Kant, though an empirical rationalist, could not deny the supremacy of mind over matter and of human beings over the external world. For him space, time and causality were the categories of mind, which it imposed on the outer world. However, he did believe in the dichotomy of mind and matter though he combined rationalism and empiricism in his Transcendental Idealism, which is an unconscious move towards unity despite the belief in noumena and phenomena. Later thinkers, however, gradually moved closer and closer to the Idealism and especially Monism.

Some salient features of German Idealism which give it a distinct identity separate from the rest of Western Philosophy include: i- Idea of the Absolute, ii- Beginning of the world in the Absolute, iii- Stages and phases of Self- consciousness, iv- Unity of the Subject and Object, v-First traces of Philosophical Anthropology (What man is in itself beyond all physical things and the universe?), vi- Intellectual intuition as a source of knowledge and a tendency towards esotericism, vii – Enthusiastic interest in Dialectics, viii- Freedom and Determinism, ix- Self as an entity free of external and causal determinants , x- Ideas of Ego and Spirit, xi- World Spirit and xii- Existence as a whole or a Unity.

 

These eternal, perennial, deep, highbrow, captivating, serious, scholarly, cherished, enthralling and fascinating ideas were presented and discussed at length by Muhammad Iqbal too in his Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam. Only one glance at the salient features of German Idealism brings into mind the familiar philosophical topics on which Muhammad Iqbal has written extensively. Besides his Urdu and Persian poetry, his political ideas bear profound stamps of these ideas. Therefore, this comparative study is academically justified, intellectually stimulating and scholastically enriching.
ГАЯЗ ИСХАКЫЙ ӘСӘРЛӘРӘ ХХI ГАСЫР ТАТАР СӘХНӘСЕНДӘ
Authors: KHABUTDİNOVA Mileuşe
Published: June 2023

Мәкаләдә татар сәхнәсендә Гаяз Исхакый әсәрләренең куелыш тарихы буенча фактлар системалаштырыла. «Гаяз Исхакый һәм театр» темасы үзенең чиксез тирәнлеге белән фәнни мәйданда аерылып тора. Әлеге тема турында озак фикер йөртергә мөмкинлек туа. Бөек татар язучысы әсәрләренең сәхнәләштерү традицияләре театрның үсеше белән тирән бәйләнештә булганы ачык күренә. Әгәр беренче театр куелышларында режиссерлар темалар һәм образларны эшләүдә «автор артыннан» барсалар, тора-бара, төрле театраль стилистикасындагы иҗади экспериментлар юлына басалар. Гаяз Исхакый әсәрләренең татар сәхнәсендә сәхнәләштерү тарихы үз эченә ике этапны ала: 1) 1906 – 1923 еллар; 2) 1990дан – хәзерге көнгә кадәр. Татар театры үсеш алган саен үзгәрә бара, әмма иҗат әһелләре һәм тамашачыларның бөек язучы мирасына кызыксынуы үзгәрми. Г.Исхакый мирасын пропагандалауга татар сәхнәсендә режиссерлар Празат Исәнбәт (1927 – 2001), Ренат Әюпов (1964 елда туган), Фәрит Бикчәнтәев (1962 елда туган), Айдар Җаббаров (1991 елда туган) зур көч салганнар. Празат Исәнбәтнең иҗат портфелендә – Г.Исхакыйның «Зөләйха» (1993), «Брачный контракт» (1994), «Җан Баевич» (1995) спектакльләре. Фәрит Бикчәнтәев язучының прозасы белән кызыксынды. Ул «Көз» (1993), «Курчак туе» (2009) спектакльләрен куйды. Режиссер Ренат Әюпов та Гаяз Исхакый иҗаты белән тыгыз элемтәдә. Ул аның прозасын сәхнәләштерүдә зур тәҗрибә туплаган: «Кәләпүшче кыз (2002), «Остазбикә» (2005), «Сөннәтче бабай» (2005, 2021), «Кәҗүл читек» (2018). Чын революцияне, постмодернистик манерада спектакльләр куеп, яшь режиссер Айдар Җаббаров ясады. Ул, язучының башлангыч чорында язылган әсәрләренә нигезләнеп, ике спектакль тудырды: «Тормышмы бу?!» (2018), «Ул әле өйләнмәгән иде» (2022).

Published: June 2023

The Covid-19 Pandemic has accelerated mass digitalization in most human activities, including in the construction industry. As a response to the social restriction policy during the pandemic, customers and companies have preferred doing business online. Company X has already launched an online customer service platform that could be maximally used during the social restriction policy. This platform uses SST (Self-Service Technology) to let customers perform their service independently. However, the platform was ineffectively utilized due to a lack of sense of two-way interaction. The stakeholders suggested adding a new feature based on the customer’s aspirations and the company’s considerations. During the development, understanding the relationship between the user and the system must be learned through HCI (Human-Computer Interaction). This research is primarily focused on the factors that affect layout design. The method to obtain a new feature in this customer service platform is using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) to minimize inconsistencies while considering the new features.

Published: June 2023

The purpose of this study was to compare the immediate effects of a plyometric warm-up protocol (PWU) and a sprint warm-up protocol (SWU) on jumping performance in female volleyball players aged 14-16 years. Through a cross-over experimental design, 18 female players were randomly divided into two groups, each receiving both warm-up protocols (PWU and SWU). Before and after each protocol, height and jumping power were evaluated in squat jump (SJ), countermovement jump (CMJ), and Abalakov (ABK) tests using the DM jump® contact mat. Both warm-up protocols significantly improved SJ, CMJ, and ABK performance (p<.05), although mainly for jump height. The comparison between both warm-up protocols in the post-test showed no significant differences (p>.05), although the greatest percentage increase in jump height and power was obtained with the SWU. The ANOVA showed significant differences in group 1 (initially assigned to PWU) for all tests except for CMJ and ABK power. In group 2 (initially assigned to SWU), the ANOVA also showed significant differences, except for SJ and CMJ power. It is concluded that both warm-up protocols improve jump height and power; however, SWU shows a more favorable trend than PWU. From a practical perspective, the preliminary findings of this pilot study can provide useful guidelines for the warm-up process; however, further randomized controlled studies with adequate statistical power are required for more robust conclusions.

Authors: YILMAZ BODUR Zeynep , AKTAN Sümer
Published: June 2023

The aim of this research is to adapt The Responsive Environmental Assessment for Classroom Teaching (REACT) scale developed by Nelson, Demers, and Christ (2014) into Turkish for EFL classrooms and to test its applicability in Türkiye on a group of secondary school students studying in the 6th, 7th, and 8th grades. Construct validity of the scale was tested with exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). As a result of the exploratory factor analysis, a structure with 22 items and four factors was obtained. The fit indices of the 4-factor structure as due to CFA show that the model is at a reasonable level. Test-retest method was used for the stability of the scale. A correlation of .910 was obtained between the two applications. To determine the scale reliability, item-total correlations and correlation analysis were used, and Cronbach alpha and composite reliability were calculated. The correlation between the sub-dimensions of the scale ranged between .420 at the lowest, .687 at the highest, and item factor loads between .51 and .88. Corrected item correlations range from .44 to .67, and the difference between the means of the 27% lower and upper groups is significant for all items. The Cronbach α internal reliability coefficient calculated to determine its internal reliability was found to be .925. The composite reliability coefficient was calculated as .957. As a result, it can be said that the REACT scale is a valid and reliable scale that researchers can use.

Authors: Li Anqi
Published: June 2023

Starting from 2022, with two consecutive quarters of negative GDP, United States has by definition entered a recession. Previous research in this field has already pinned down the basic causes and the history of this recession, yet with the effects of it still unfolding, it’s important to understand the U.S. public perception on this topic, in order to better predict its future consequences. Using the method of online survey, this paper will seek to capture the working U.S. citizens’ economic identities and their opinion on the existing issues within the American economy, and how they should be remedied. Survey figures are generated for analyzation, in which participants will be grouped by their age and income, to better understand their difference in perspectives. The survey results indicate perceptions of lower class, middle class, and upper class American citizens, in regards to their perceptions on inflation, the Federal Reserve Bank, their own spending habits, and the Biden’s Administration’s response to address the current economic conditions.
Investigating Acoustic Similarities of Auditory Elephant Deterrents to Optimize Current Techniques
Authors: Shrivastava Suhana , Buchholtz Erin
Published: June 2023

One of the primary reasons elephants are endangered is human-elephant conflict (HEC), the opposition that occurs between elephants and the humans living nearby. The violence that erupts in settings of HEC, such as crop fields, often results in both human and elephant deaths as both species struggle to coexist. Many methods are being researched to mitigate HEC, including playing audio playbacks that trigger flight responses in elephants near crop fields and reduce chance of contact and destruction. Habituation to these stimuli creates the demand for a greater number and more types of auditory deterrents, but it would be unethical and inefficient to immediately jump to tests with crop fields without first verifying these playbacks are at least somewhat effective. Thus, this paper aims to analyze currently used auditory deterrents to determine if any acoustic similarities exist between them, and create a generalization for what characteristics make up an effective auditory deterrent. The results will help optimize current playbacks and help create a threshold of characteristics to use before future testing, to reduce habituation and human-elephant conflict.
A Comprehensive Review of the Mechanisms of NMT For Reversing Neurodegenerative Disorders
Authors: Tummala Arjun
Published: June 2023

This paper reviews the literature concerning the mechanisms of music therapy that improve the quality of life for patients with neurodegenerative diseases. Music therapy is a remedial practice involving music to help improve health. Certain professional therapists practice Neurologic Music Therapy (NMT) as an allied health profession that provides evidence-based care to hospitalized patients, not just as a source of comfort, but also as a source of healing. This is especially the case for patients with neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson’s disease, and expressive aphasia. The current growing body of researchers is investigating the effects of music therapy on memory, speech, motor control, and behavior. However, various questions remain unanswered. In this review paper, we gathered primary literature to evaluate the use of music therapy and the mechanisms that lead to successful outcomes. Music therapy is important because it provides a way to enhance comfort for diseased patients, whether in a hospitalized state or an average daily scenario. In patients with neurodegenerative diseases, music increases plasticity in areas of the brain that may improve speech, memory, behavior, and more. As we better understand the mechanisms and optimize music therapy, it may provide more ease to patients and even treat and cure certain disorders in the future.

Published: June 2023

The search for pharmaceutical treatment for COVID-19 has been progressive. Currently approved medicines include therapeutic antibodies and antiviral drugs. However, the effectiveness of current antiviral drugs is far from satisfactory, which suggests the necessity for improvement. In this research, we selected the non-structural protein complex Nsp16-Nsp10, which is responsible for methylating SARS-CoV-2’s RNA, as a drug target. With computer-aided drug development technology, we screened two potential drugs either by inhibiting the SAM catalytic pocket on the complex or inhibiting the binding between Nsp16 and Nsp10 from preventing the Nsp16-Nsp10 complex helping SARS-CoV-2 duplicate, and that will work in COVID-19 treatment.

In recent years, public and global health officials have come to the consensus that fostering sustainable eating habits is a crucial step towards preserving healthcare outcomes worldwide. This publication aims to explore the advent of new cell-based meat (CBM) and plant-based meat (PBM) alternatives, and their capacity to improve the health and wellbeing of global populations. These products present consumers with replacements for animal-based meat (ABM), a staple aspect of diets worldwide. CBM and PBM can be applied toward the production of animal products, allowing global communities to utilize more sustainable farming techniques. They can reduce the health impacts of climate change and also provide healthier alternatives to ABM. However, potent obstacles when it comes to the production, development and marketing of these products may impede upon their capacity to truly benefit the health of people and the planet. But if CBM and PBM can overcome these challenges, these feats of bioengineering may provide the world’s growing population a healthier and more sustainable diet.

Perovskite solar cell (PSC) technologies have recently become a popular research topic. The hole transport layers (HTL) are important in establishing stable and efficient PSC by regulating charge absorption, interlayer recombination losses, and band alignment. Spiro-OMeTAD was extensively used as the HTL to fabricate highly efficient PSCs. Despite Spiro-OMeTAD having the benefit of providing high PCEs, it is costly, hazardous to the ecology, and cannot provide high efficiencies in the lack of additional additives that can reduce their stabilities. Inorganic HTL, specifically nickel oxide (NiO), has garnered much interest due to its low-cost, enhanced mobility, and strong stability to attain high efficiency. This study investigated different precursor solutions of NiO synthesis (Method I, II, and III) and deposited using the spin coating approach. The films were annealed at different annealing temperatures (400°C, 550°C, and 700°C) and evaluated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis spectroscopy, and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to test their structural, morphological, and optical characteristics, respectively. The findings of XRD revealed that a higher annealing temperature increases the crystallite size and decreases the microstrain through the study from Scherrer’s and Williamson-Hall’s (WH) equations. From the SEM analysis, the films show uniformity, large crystals, and agglomeration of particles. The annealing temperature from 400°C to 700°C reduced bandgap energy from 3.6 eV to 2.1 eV. According to the result, NiO produced at an annealing temperature of 700°C (Method I) exhibited the best characteristics and might be a viable option for HTL in PSCs.

The effectiveness of student learning in an online laboratory environment requires appropriate measurements from the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor (CAP) domains. However, current self-reporting perceived CAP instruments are general and focused on non-technical fields, hence unsuitable for comprehensively measuring and evaluating technology and engineering (TE) online laboratory courses. This work aims to develop and validate a new instrument to measure perceived CAP learning domains in technology and engineering (TE) online laboratory courses. An initial instrument with 22 questions to assess CAP attributes was developed based on adaptation and expert consultation. About 1414 questionnaires were deployed and obtained a response rate of 25%, which meets the requirement of a confidence level of 90% with a 5% error. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) were used to further reduce the items to 13. Items reliability was verified using Cronbach Alpha. The finalized items consist of 5 cognitive, 4 affective, and 4 psychomotor items. For cognitive, the five items relate to students’ perception of self-directed learning, reproducing study guides for future students, organizing their tasks and solving problems, relating lab works with fundamental concepts and theories, and completing all tasks. The four affective items are associated with students’ perception of active involvement in learning, communication of findings, collaboration with team members, and awareness of safety and requirements. The four psychomotor items are linked to students’ perceived attainment in performing the experiment, visualizing the procedure, demonstrating technical skills, and operating the equipment. The tool is verified to self-measure CAP attainment for online laboratories.
Tax Burden and Influencing Factors During Waste Incineration Power PPP Project Operation
Authors: Yang Tong , Yuan Ziwei , Xing Chengran
Published: June 2023

Waste incineration power generation is an effective way to treat domestic waste as a resource, an effective way to reduce carbon emissions, and an important model for developing the circular economy, practicing the spirit of emission reduction promoted by COP26. The tax burden during the operation of public-private partnerships (PPPs) projects in this field directly affects the selection and development of the supply model. This paper selected the data of enterprises participating in the waste incineration power generation PPP project from the Ministry of Finance’s PPP project management database and the financial data of the company from the CSMAR database for the corresponding year and used tax burden evaluation indicators to empirically analyze the tax burden of the operation period of a waste incineration power generation PPP project from the perspectives of value-added tax and enterprise income tax. It was found that the asset-liability ratio, the income capacity from electricity sales, the profitability, and whether the preferential tax policy of “three exemptions and three halves” could significantly affect the corporate income tax burden of the project had to be considered. Combined with current preferential tax policies, this paper provided targeted optimization suggestions such as emphasizing the role of a “debt tax shield,” optimizing the output structure, and extending the duration of the “three exemptions and three halves” tax incentives. The research in this paper is helpful to find an effective way to reduce the tax burden of enterprises, improve the economic benefits of waste incineration power generation projects, and also provide a reference for the government to formulate more reasonable tax policies and promote a better tax system.

Pedagogical competence development programs: tensions and challenges to meaningful participation
Authors: Hektoen Espen , Wallin Patric
Published: June 2023

Pedagogical competence development programs are gaining traction in the world of higher education teaching. In 2016, the Norwegian government issued a white paper calling for a “culture for quality” in higher education teaching. In line with earlier developments in other Scandinavian countries, the white paper proposes mandatory pedagogical competence development programs for university teachers as a new responsibility for the Norwegian universities – with new challenges for the institutions. In this article we, therefore, explore how participants in one of the new mandatory competence development programs experience tensions that challenge meaningful participation. Based on a qualitative analysis of 9 semi-structured interviews with participants, we identify three tensions: 1) between reflection and application, 2) between research and teaching, and 3) between demands and workloads. The vision of this program is a critically reflective approach to teaching. In the analysis we found that these tensions potentially halt this process. To discuss how this can challenge pedagogical competence development in higher education more generally, we employ the theoretical perspective of critical reflection, integrated with dialogue, praxis, and discourses on teaching.
Load Tests of the Renal form of Primary Hyperparathyroidism in Children
Authors: Nasirov Abdusattor Akhatovich , Faizievich Bayakhmedov Fathulla
Published: June 2023

After the introduction of calcium chloride (12.4 mg/kg) examined the levels in the blood at 20 and 120 minutes. The calcium content in a comparison group of children after 120 minutes returned to the baseline, in patients with a renal form of primary hyperparathyroidism its level was greater than 1.3 times. The test was sensitive and provided an opportunity to reveal hypercalcemia in 39 children who had been the normo[1]and hypocalcemia. The impaired renal function had no effect on the significance of the test. Osmotic hypertension develops under the influence of hypertonic sodium chloride. In osmotic diuresis, the excretions of calcium and sodium cations are interdependent. Increasing sodium in the loops of Henle and distal renal tubules stimulates sodium excretion, decreased reabsorption, which leads to increased levels of calcium in the daily urine in children with primary hyperparathyroidism. Test with sodium chloride made it possible to detect hypercalciuria in 12 (21.43%) children who have had normal levels of calcium in urine.

To date, methods of prevention and treatment of coronavirus infections have not been developed in essence. One of the reasons for this situation may be the peculiarities of the pathogenesis of coronavirus infection and the rapid development of the pandemic, which could hinder the effectiveness of ongoing research. As with any viral infection, with the development and spread of the inflammatory process, viremia develops, that is, the generalization of infection, cytokine secretion becomes uncontrolled, and the concentration of IFNy, IL-1, IL-6, IL-12 in the blood serum significantly increases, in other words, the primary inflammatory reaction enters a new phase — the cytokine storm phase, which manifests itself violently even according to clinical and laboratory parameters. In this regard, adequate therapy aimed at stopping the uncontrolled process induced not so much by viremia as by the associated inflammation is crucial. In this regard, the aim of our study was to study the effect of monoclonal antibodies, in particular the drug "Kazirivimab + Imdevimab"— a combination of recombinant monoclonal antibodies directed against S-protein on the clinical course and laboratory data in patients with a new coronavirus infection –Covid-19.
An Examination of the Land Use Determinants of Travel: A Case Study of Calicut City in India
Authors: Sreelekha M.G.
Published: June 2023

Several travel studies focus mainly on mode shifting. Again, most travel studies have focused on mandatory trips. But the influence of land use on travel is rarely verified in all these studies. This paper examines the influence of land use measures on travel in a medium-sized city, India. The travel characteristics like number of trips, person-km and person-hr of travel by various modes and for various purposes are analysed separately. Land use is characterised by population density, employment density, land use intensity, land use mix and accessibility. During the modelling process, the explanatory variables are subjected to transformation to get over the nonlinearity issue. Statistical analysis reveals that a balanced mix of various land use activities causes people to travel less by any mode and for any purpose. Such studies can help the city planners formulate effective transport policies to improve the quality of transport within the city.
Car-free Life and Factors Influencing Travel Mode Choice
Authors: Šucha Matúš
Published: June 2023

The article discusses the issues related to the choice of a travel mode. It explores factors which may lead to the decision to lead a life without a car, as well as describing the advantages and disadvantages associated with such a car-free lifestyle. A qualitative design was chosen for the research. The first group comprised respondents who had never begun to drive, the second individuals who had given up their car voluntarily, of their own accord, and the third consisted of individuals who were forced by circumstances to give up car use. Respondents from the Czech Republic and Austria participated in the survey. The results suggest that the main factors conducive to a car-free life are the lack of a perceived need for a car, financial costs, and fear of driving. The concepts of voluntariness and internal motivation also play a role.
