Published: March 2024

This study aimed to develop and establish the validity and reliability of the Preschool Peer Aggression Scale (Teacher Form) (PPAS-TF). The study employed two distinct sample groups. The scale's factor structure was established through Principal Components Analysis on the initial group, which comprised 1106 children (F=508; M=597). The second sample group, which included 551 children (F:255; M:296) was utilized to conduct Confirmatory Factor Analysis to validate the factor structure. The scale's validity was also assessed through content and external criterion validity. For content validity, a literature review and expert consultation were employed. Convenience validity was used for criterion validity. For reliability internal consistency coefficients, item-total correlation coefficients, and correlations between the factors were examined. As a result, the 28-item PPAS-TF for 4-6-year-old children was categorized into three sub-dimensions: social aggression, physical aggression, and verbal aggression. Teachers can use this form to assess aggression levels, with each sub-dimension's score indicating the extent of that specific aggression type. Higher scores in the sub-dimensions signify a greater propensity for that type of aggression. Additionally, an overall assessment can be made using the total score. The distinctiveness of the PPAS-TF arises from its development with a Turkish sample and its incorporation of three sub-dimensions.

Published: March 2024

The finite element method is used to carry out modal analysis of rotating cantilever beam. The virtual work method is then used to derive the stiffness matrix of a rotating beam element. The stiffness matrix of a rotating beam element is simply seen to be sum of the stiffness matrix of the non-rotating beam and an incremental stiffness matrix induced by rotation. This work presents a novel generalized incremental stiffness matrix that takes care of any element at any distance from the rotation axis. The established rotational stiffness matrix is then used together with consistent mass matrix (not affected by rotation) to carry out modal analysis of rotating cantilever beam. Theoretical computations were validated by simulations from ANSYS. It is seen that the contribution to modal frequencies and shapes of the blade of rotation via incremental stiffness matrix is very marginal at low rotational speeds. For example it is seen for a numerical case study that five-element model computes slight increase in fundamental natural frequency due to rotation relative to that of the non-rotating blade as 0.000195% for rotational speed of 300rpm. It is also seen that ten times increase in speed leads to about hundred times increase in rotational contribution meaning that it becomes more imperative to model rotation as speed of the blade increases. Points are also made regarding application to avoiding resonance of rotating cantilever beam.

Relevance of near-surface soil moisture vs. terrestrial water storage for global vegetation functioning
Authors: Khanal Prajwal , Hoek Van Dijke Anne J. , Schaffhauser Timo , Li Wantong , Paulus Sinikka J. , Zhan Chunhui , Orth René
Published: March 2024

Abstract. Soil water availability is an essential prerequisite for vegetation functioning. Vegetation takes up water from varying soil depths depending on the characteristics of its rooting system and soil moisture availability across depth. The depth of vegetation water uptake is largely unknown across large spatial scales as a consequence of sparse ground measurements. At the same time, emerging satellite-derived observations of vegetation functioning, surface soil moisture, and terrestrial water storage present an opportunity to assess the depth of vegetation water uptake globally. In this study, we characterize vegetation functioning through the near-infrared reflectance of vegetation (NIRv) and compare its relation to (i) near-surface soil moisture from the ESA's Climate Change Initiative (CCI) and (ii) total water storage from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission at a monthly timescale during the growing season. The relationships are quantified through partial correlations to mitigate the influence of confounding factors such as energy- and other water-related variables. We find that vegetation functioning is generally more strongly related to near-surface soil moisture, particularly in semi-arid regions and areas with low tree cover. In contrast, in regions with high tree cover and in arid regions, the correlation with terrestrial water storage is comparable to or even higher than that of near-surface soil moisture, indicating that trees can and do make use of their deeper rooting systems to access deeper soil moisture, similar to vegetation in arid regions. At the same time, we note that this comparison is hampered by different noise levels in these satellite data streams. In line with this, an attribution analysis that examines the relative importance of soil water storage for vegetation reveals that they are controlled by (i) water availability influenced by the climate and (ii) vegetation type reflecting adaptation of the ecosystems to local water resources. Next to variations in space, the vegetation water uptake depth also varies in time. During dry periods, the relative importance of terrestrial water storage increases, highlighting the relevance of deeper water resources during rain-scarce periods. Overall, the synergistic exploitation of state-of-the-art satellite data products to disentangle the relevance of near-surface vs. terrestrial water storage for vegetation functioning can inform the representation of vegetation–water interactions in land surface models to support more accurate climate change projections.

Abstract. The climate science community aims to improve our understanding of climate change due to anthropogenic influences on atmospheric composition and the Earth's surface. Yet not all climate interactions are fully understood, and uncertainty in climate model results persists, as assessed in the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assessment report. We synthesize current challenges and emphasize opportunities for advancing our understanding of the interactions between atmospheric composition, air quality, and climate change, as well as for quantifying model diversity. Our perspective is based on expert views from three multi-model intercomparison projects (MIPs) – the Precipitation Driver Response MIP (PDRMIP), the Aerosol Chemistry MIP (AerChemMIP), and the Radiative Forcing MIP (RFMIP). While there are many shared interests and specializations across the MIPs, they have their own scientific foci and specific approaches. The partial overlap between the MIPs proved useful for advancing the understanding of the perturbation–response paradigm through multi-model ensembles of Earth system models of varying complexity. We discuss the challenges of gaining insights from Earth system models that face computational and process representation limits and provide guidance from our lessons learned. Promising ideas to overcome some long-standing challenges in the near future are kilometer-scale experiments to better simulate circulation-dependent processes where it is possible and machine learning approaches where they are needed, e.g., for faster and better subgrid-scale parameterizations and pattern recognition in big data. New model constraints can arise from augmented observational products that leverage multiple datasets with machine learning approaches. Future MIPs can develop smart experiment protocols that strive towards an optimal trade-off between the resolution, complexity, and number of simulations and their length and, thereby, help to advance the understanding of climate change and its impacts.

Published: March 2024

Abstract. In this paper, a novel series three-axis stable platform (STSP) is proposed, and its azimuth angle structure, pitch angle structure, roll angle structure, overall system structure scheme, and control scheme are designed. The platform is a universal one. The forward and inverse kinematics and dynamics models of the STSP pitch-and-roll mechanisms are established, and the motion rules of the platform and the force conditions of the main components are analyzed. Establish a mathematical model of the platform control system, analyze the performance of the pitch-and-roll system of the STSP, propose a position velocity dual-closed-loop control strategy, and determine the controller parameters through simulation analysis of the control system. A comprehensive experiment is carried out to install the STSP on the swing platform; simulate the actual operating environment, verify the rationality and dynamic accuracy of the kinematic model, dynamic model, and control strategy; and verify the feasibility and stability of the system control scheme and platform configuration.

What Are Picture Books About Autism Telling Our Children?
Authors: Belcher Christina , Maich Kimberly , Legault Kristin , Torraville Bethany
Published: March 2024

This article investigates how picture books published in of 2019 represent Autism to children, with special attention as to whether those representations overtly include terminology around autism or covertly present autistic characters. Although both overt and covert representations occur in children’s literature, covert representation may or may not come to the attention of children. Overt and covert uses of language convey different elements of personhood to readers, portraying what we, the authors, feel is important. Our analysis of these four samples of 2019 picture books was framed by critical disability studies, labelling theory and camouflage and by developmental bibliotherapy, providing evidence that the distinction between overt and covert labelling can have influences on the perceptions of readers.

Published: March 2024

In Indonesia, malaria remains a problem, with 94,610 active cases in 2021 and its current therapy includes chloroquine and artemisinin; however, resistance has been commonly reported. To overcome this problem, studies about potential medicinal plants that can be used as antimalaria, such as moringa (Moringa oleifera) started to receive more attention. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of moringa in parasitemia, monocyte activation, and organomegaly on animal model malaria. This experimental study used male Mus musculus, infected by Plasmodium berghei ANKA, as an animal malaria model. The extract was made by maceration of dry moringa leaves, which were then divided into three concentrations: 25%, 50%, and 75%. Dihydroartemisinin-piperazine was used as a positive control treatment, and distilled water as a negative control treatment. The animals were observed for six days to assess the parasitemia count and the number of monocyte activation. On day 7, the animals were terminated, and the liver, spleen, and kidney were weighed. The results showed that the effective concentrations in reducing parasitemia and inducing monocyte activation were 50% and 25% of moringa leaf extract, respectively. The smallest liver and spleen enlargement was observed among animals within the group treated with a 50% concentration of M. oleifera extract. In contrast, the smallest kidney enlargement was observed in the group treated with 25% of M. oleifera extract. Further analysis is recommended to isolate compounds with antimalarial properties in moringa leaves.

It has long been known that play allows students to discover their capabilities in an immediate environment. Many famous teachers and psychologists have spoken and continue to speak about the role of play in the learning process. It is through play that children learn to assimilate social functions and norms of behaviour as games encourage development. The developmental significance of play is inherent in its very nature since play is always about emotions; and where there are emotions, there is activity, there is attention and imagination, there is thinking. The basis of teaching a foreign language is a game, which is a psychological justification for the transition to a new language of instruction.
The purpose of this article is to assess the methodology of using language games to develop lexical speaking skills.

The present study describes the construction of a new inventory that measures parenting style along five independent dimensions: 1) empathic communication; 2) authoritarian leadership; 3) valuation/compassion; 4) avoidant leadership and 5) mentalization. Existing models and inventories do not capture the same breadth and complexity of parenting skills as the present form. This inventory could potentially provide a more nuanced picture of the individual’s parenting style and a more accurate indication of relevant areas of development. The results from our exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis with two different parent samples (n = 592 individual parents) revealed that the five-factor structure demonstrated a significant model fit of the five parental dimensions.

In today's digital era, as a container that provides a place for audiences and even individuals, where they have the same interest in finding and reading information, the web is the answer to the above statement. This is in line with the rapid growth of Information Technology both in developed countries and in developing countries, namely the availability of the internet, which can be accessed anytime and from anywhere. As a new media, mass media in the form of online news can be found in Kompas and Detik News.

Framing analysis needs to be known to provide a concept for the use of images in a media report, it is necessary to look at it from various points of view. In choosing a fact has two probabilities that is what can be chosen in terms of (news section), then what can be discarded (which section is not reported). This depends on how the media sees the interesting part of news. Pan and Kosicki say that framing in media discourses is a way of social awareness that involves at least three main keys, namely the source, the journalist or reporters, and the audience. This is done to attract readers to an important part of a text in the news. The units observed in a structure there are several things that can be explained. In understanding the culture that concerns the basis of human social life is regulated, while framing analysis used by translators in testing media discourse.

ABSTRAK

Penerapan strategi komunikasi sangat dibutuhkan komitmen dan kerja sama dalam pelaksanaan  strategi interaksi antara dua orang atau LEBIH dalam kelompok, terutama dalam bentuk tatap muka. Dalam pondok pesantren sebagai salah satu pendidikan non formal yang telah  memberikan ruang  pada  santrinya dalam menghadapi kehidupan yang semakin rumit. Pondok pesantren turut andil dalam membentuk karakter yang  merupakan bentuk nilai dari perilaku manusia yang berhubungan dengan Tuhan Yang Maha Esa, diri sendiri, sesama manusia, lingkungan, dan kebangsaan yang terwujud dalam pikiran, sikap perasaan, perkaataan, dan perbuatan berdasarkan norma- norma agama, hukum, tata krama, budaya, dan adat istiadat.

zaman sekarang yang serba canggih, dengan informasi sudah mudah di dapatkan seperti media sosial. Tidak sedikit santri sekarang yang terpengaruh dengan budaya yang tidak sesuai dengan karakter yang baik.. Maka dari itu perlu adanya perhatian khusus bagi para ustadzah seperti komunikasi interpersonal. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah kualitatif (field research), penelitian kualitatif adalah jenis penelitian yang menghasilkan penemuan-penemuan yang tidak dapat diperoleh dengan menggunakan prosedur- prosedur statistic atau cara-cara lain dan kuantifikasi. Hasil penelitian ini adalahPendekatan yang dilakukan oleh ustadzah kepada para santri dilakukan dengan pendekatan komunikasi interpersonal dengan cara berkomunikasi pada saat ngobrol santai atau dalam proses belajar mengajar. Strategi komunikasi interpersonal yang dilakukan ustadzah dengan santri adalah dengan mengetahui kondisi dari anak terlebih dahulu, mealui media komunikasi dan obrolan yang intens. Faktor pendukung dalam proses komunikasi antara ustadzah dengan santri adalah keakraban dan keterbukaan. Faktor penghambat dalam proses komunikasi yang pertama adalah bahasa,latar belakang santri, perilaku santri.

First you need the farmers: The microfarm system as a critical intervention in the alternative food movement
Authors: Curtis Kent , Hand Grace
Published: March 2024

After more than three decades, the alternative food movement has developed multiple strategies, most of which are still struggling. This essay surveys the literature on six key alternative food movement (AFM) strategies, assessing their strengths and weaknesses before describing a novel strategy, the microfarm system, which is being implemented in north central Ohio. It argues that key omissions from most AFM scholarship and practices include sustained attention to training and supporting suc­cessful farmers, concerted efforts to help facilitate needed social networks or communities of prac­tices around alternative food developments, and forwarding a set of ambitions that do not appreci­ate the scale of existing food systems nor the limits of alternative food systems’ impact. It offers the microfarm system as an emerging approach to address these omissions.
Leveraging electrochemical sensors to improve efficiency of cancer detection
Authors: Fu Li , Karimi-Maleh Hassan
Published: March 2024

Electrochemical biosensors have emerged as a promising technology for cancer detection due to their high sensitivity, rapid response, low cost, and capability for non-invasive detection. Recent advances in nanomaterials like nanoparticles, graphene, and nanowires have enhanced sensor performance to allow for cancer biomarker detection, like circulating tumor cells, nucleic acids, proteins and metabolites, at ultra-low concentrations. However, several challenges need to be addressed before electrochemical biosensors can be clinically implemented. These include improving sensor selectivity in complex biological media, device miniaturization for implantable applications, integration with data analytics, handling biomarker variability, and navigating regulatory approval. This editorial critically examines the prospects of electrochemical biosensors for efficient, low-cost and minimally invasive cancer screening. We discuss recent developments in nanotechnology, microfabrication, electronics integration, multiplexing, and machine learning that can help realize the potential of these sensors. However, significant interdisciplinary efforts among researchers, clinicians, regulators and the healthcare industry are still needed to tackle limitations in selectivity, size constraints, data interpretation, biomarker validation, toxicity and commercial translation. With committed resources and pragmatic strategies, electrochemical biosensors could enable routine early cancer detection and dramatically reduce the global cancer burden.
