Self-training and self-education in the professional formation of a Ukrainian citizen
Authors: Prytula Olexandr
Published: November 2024

Carrying out self-training and self-education in the process of professional development, a citizen of Ukraine should use methods and means of self-assessment of his beliefs, knowledge, actions, etc. In this process, the adequacy of the performed self-assessment, its constructive, psychologically positive and pragmatic nature is important. Every person from childhood should not only form a certain basic philosophical culture, which will help him to achieve better self-esteem, but also strive to constantly find a community of those interested in philosophy. This community of philosophical self-education will change during life, however, it should be constantly present in a person’s life – a community of people who are informally interested in the philosophical questions of their life. It is noted that the methods and technologies of self-training and self-education, which are formed during education and implemented to a greater extent in adult life, in particular, in the professional development of a Ukrainian citizen, play a special role in the education of civic qualities of an individual. Carrying out professional activity, a person should not only master professional skills, but also expand his worldview and value, civic potential. In the process of professional development, a citizen must learn the principles of self-training and self-education, which were formed by the entire history of Ukrainian culture development. It is emphasized that self-training as a phenomenon of individual existence is impossible without self-education, which is based on the worldview position of a person regarding the importance and necessity of updating one’s own cognitive competencies, in particular in the field of professional development. Skills and methods of self-education are usually formed during studies in school and student environments. Also, self-education is based on the achievements of Ukrainian culture and science, those psychological and pedagogical standards that have developed in our country and are the gained collective experience of the Ukrainian people.

Published: November 2024

Betalains are natural pigments that include betacyanin and betaxanthin, found in plants such as beets and cacti. In the food industry, betalains are used as natural colorants due to their color stability and health benefits, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that support the prevention of degenerative diseases. With increasing demand for natural ingredients, betalains are also being promoted in the cosmetics and health product industries. In the healthy food sector, new extraction techniques like microwave-assisted extraction and aqueous two-phase technology have improved the purification efficiency and quality of betalain pigments. In cosmetics, betalains are utilized as anti-aging and anti-inflammatory components, with innovative approaches like biopolymer encapsulation to enhance product stability. Geographical trends show significant interest in betalain use in natural cosmetics and healthy foods in Europe and Asia, while research in Latin America focuses on its potential as a supplement and food colorant. In renewable energy technology, betalains act as photosensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), though their stability still requires optimization, such as through co-sensitization with other pigments. These innovations suggest that betalains hold considerable potential in the food, cosmetics, and energy industries, making them a versatile and globally relevant natural material.

Authors: Mubarok Zakky , Fikroh Retno Aliyatul
Published: November 2024

The corrosion of ferrous metals is a serious issue that can reduce material durability and lead to significant economic losses. Melinjo seed extract was selected for investigation due to its potential as a corrosion inhibitor, attributed to the presence of tannin compounds capable of forming complexes that coat metal surfaces. This research aims to explore the use of melinjo seed extract as a bioinhibitor for iron, providing an effective and environmentally friendly solution. The extraction of melinjo seeds was performed using the maceration method. The melinjo seed extract was mixed with 70% ethanol to obtain an inhibitor solution. The study evaluated the corrosion rate and inhibition efficiency of iron immersed in melinjo seed extract solution at varying concentration. The results showed that melinjo seed extract has the potential to inhibit corrosion in iron. A higher concentration of melinjo seed extract correlated with a lower corrosion rate. The highest corrosion rate was 6.7x10-2 g/cm² day at 0% concentration. The lowest corrosion rate was 1.6x10-2 g/cm² day at a 15% concentration of melinjo seed extract. The optimum inhibition efficiency was achieved at the 15% concentration, which amounted to 76%. These results indicate that melinjo seed extract is an effective bioinhibitor for ferrous metal corrosion.

In the cattle fattening business, feed is the main factor determining cattle growth. Providing quality feed is a challenge for ruminant breeders, both large ruminants and small ruminants, especially during the dry season where availability is very limited. Therefore, breeders are required to create other alternatives for providing quality feed, with good shelf life, at lower costs. One application of simple technology that could be a solution is through feed fermentation. This research aims to analyze: the effect of fermented feed on cattle fattening performance. The material used was 15 cows, consisting of 8 imported/foreign crossbreed cattle and 7 local cattle. The location of this fattening process is carried out at the Ibnu Hikam Tani Farmer's Cage, Kulur Sindangkasih Village, Majalengka. The method used is Operational Research (RO). The results of the research showed that by using fermented feed, the increase in body weight (ADG) of foreign breed cattle was 0.5-0.7 kg per day, while the growth of local cattle was 0.5 kg per day. Meanwhile, the average daily feed cost is IDR 20,000-25,000 per day per head. Farmers' perceptions vary regarding the price of feed and feed ingredients. Even though this self-mixed fermented feed is still below SNI standards, it does not reduce the nutritional quality for the nutritional intake needed by ruminants. This research concluded that by using fermented feed, foreign-breed cattle absorb more nutrients than local cattle. So it is recommended to improve feed quality by adding or changing the feed formula currently used.

Toilet Training Methods for Toddlers and Preschool-Age Children: A Scoping Review of Current Evidence
Authors: Dewi Kurnia Meishinta , Rakhmawaty Windy , Mardhiyah Ai
Published: November 2024

Independence in toileting is a skill that must be achieved throughout the stages of child growth and development. Toilet training (TT) is an important part of child development that can increase independence and minimize disturbances in bowel and bladder control in children. In general, this exercise is performed on children aged 12-36 months (toddlers) and children aged 48-60 months (preschool) depending on each child's readiness. This readiness is commonly shown by the emergence of a child's instinct to defecate or urinate independently. In this process, parents and caregivers play an important role in stimulating independence in children through TT. Unfortunately, most parents and caregivers may find it difficult to initiate, instruct, guide, and demonstrate TT for their child. This review aims to evaluate the effectiveness and applicability of various TT methods based on recent evidence. This review uses the scoping review design by including 3 databases in the search strategy: EBSCO-host, PubMed, and Scopus. All keywords used are synthesized from the PICO were “Toddlers” AND “Preschool Children” OR “Preschool Child” AND “Toilet Training” OR “Potty Training” AND “Toileting”.  This study only reviews the results of primary studies from the past five years (2018-2023), published in English or Bahasa, and with experimental designs. Children with a history of functional gastrointestinal and urinary tract disorders were excluded from the study. The methodological validity and risk bias of each study is included in this review using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) instrument. The main findings in this review study indicate that there are 7 types of toilet training interventions that have been developed and implemented. There are The AAP Guideline, The DAP Guideline, The Application of TT, AI Technology, Storytelling Treatment, Hypnoparenting, and TT Demonstration. Findings show that most interventions focus on individual or group settings with additional techniques like demonstration and storytelling. Parents and caregivers, including pediatric nurses, can consider TT method adapted from The AAP Guideline to improved toilet training process among toddlers and preschool-age children.

Static Versus Dynamic Accessibility. Accessibility Management as a Tool to Enable Its Permanence over Time
Authors: Jiménez-Martín Delfín , Iglesias-Cadarso Carmen
Published: November 2024

An accessibility monitoring or audit of an environment provides information at a given point in time (static view of accessibility). But accessibility, to be really effective, must be maintained over time. Therefore, it must be considered throughout all phases of the design process (different phases of the project) and construction (different phases of the work). But it is also essential that, once built, it is possible to maintain or even increase the level of accessibility initially achieved. There are many cases in which, despite a good accessible project, during the life of the building the accessibility conditions worsen substantially because the need for a system that guarantees the permanence of accessibility over time is not contemplated. This requires the adoption of a Universal Accessibility Management System (UAMS) which, as is done with other disciplines such as Quality or Sustainability, allows those responsible for the management of this environment to implement, prevent or correct the accessibility actions that correspond in each case. For the development of a UAMS, the first thing to be defined is the scope to be considered and the scope. Furthermore, from the point of view of use, accessibility can be considered from the visitor’s point of view (customer service; customer’s perspective) or from the worker’s point of view (workstation; employee’s perspective). In this article we will take as a reference two methodologies that have been widely used on numerous occasions, to analyse the strengths and weaknesses of each of them and their parts from a deep theoretical (processes and indicators) and practical (disruptors) knowledge. The ultimate aim of this work is to identify the aspects to be considered in the definition of a UAMS, in order to be able to define and specify the keys to approach an accessibility audit from a dynamic perspective, that is to say. one that really guarantees the sustainability of the accessibility of that place over time.

Universal Design in Sustainable Tourism Certification Schemes
Authors: Landa-Mata Iratxe , Blumenthal Veronica , Fleten Nielsen Anja
Published: November 2024

Universal design has played a modest role in Norwegian tourism policy, despite its potential for contributing to a more socially, economically and environmentally sustainable tourism industry. The increased interest in sustainability labeling schemes among tourism actors represents an opportunity to work towards universal design of tourism, provided these schemes encompass universal design criteria. Standards for universal design are important in creating recognizable solutions, not least for visitors who often consume services across different sectors in unfamiliar environments. Against this background, we investigated whether sustainable tourism labeling schemes include suggestions made in standards for universal design. Based on previous research on universal design in the transport sector, a coding structure was constructed and used to analyze a sample of 13 tourism-related standards for universal design and five sustainability labeling schemes used by Norwegian tourism actors. Findings show that labeling schemes for sustainable tourism to a very limited extent incorporate measures described in standards for universal design. Moreover, both labeling schemes and standards are primarily aimed at the physical environment rather than the organizational or social environments, and both dedicate little attention to employees. Nevertheless, standards for universal design comprise a much wider range of measures and user-groups. Integrating them into popular sustainability labeling schemes seems pertinent to raise awareness and foster practices that contribute to improve universal design of tourism.

However, there is a significant lack of both strategies and resources for teaching the use of these screen readers, and standardized teaching guidelines are notably absent. Furthermore, there is no free, universally designed, and accessible app for practicing gestures in mobile screen readers. This study aims to identify best practice strategies for teaching and practicing the use of gesture-based screen readers among visually impaired users, based on observations from an IT course directed at visually impaired individuals. Moreover, we present common challenges related to usability, attitudes, emotions, technical aspects, and user guidance and education, as well as key traits and facilitators for learning gesture-based screen readers. Lastly, we assess the feasibility of an app to practice gestures and propose a framework for a gesture practice app to enhance user accuracy and patience.

La psicología positiva, desde su creación, se ha encargado del estudio del bienestar subjetivo y el optimismo con el objetivo de mejorar la calidad de vida de la población. Particularmente, en la población de adultos mayores, se consideran de importancia por su rol en el afrontamiento de los cambios producidos en esta etapa, para lograr el envejecimiento exitoso, por eso se considera importante su estudio y el consiguiente desarrollo de estrategias para promover estilos de vida más sanos. En este trabajo se realizó una revisión bibliográfica narrativa acerca de la relación entre el bienestar subjetivo y el optimismo en la población de los adultos mayores. El bienestar subjetivo es un factor de protección de la salud, que implica experimentar estados de ánimo placenteros. Por otro lado, el optimismo se define como una expectativa generalizada de que acontecerán eventos positivos y no negativos. También es considerado un factor protector de la salud. Se investigo esta temática en base al análisis de un total de 9 artículos científicos, publicados en los últimos 15 años. A partir de la presente revisión, se ha concluido que tanto el optimismo, como el bienestar subjetivo tienen un papel importante en el envejecimiento exitoso. También se encontró que existe una relación positiva entre el optimismo y el bienestar subjetivo, es decir, cuanto mayor es el nivel de optimismo, mayor será el bienestar subjetivo.
Flood Prediction by using Artificial Neural Network: A Case Study in Temerloh, Pahang

Floods are natural disasters that can cause significant property damage and sometimes result in loss of life. In Malaysia, floods occur every year, particularly on the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia, due to the Northeast Monsoon and the impacts of climate change, which can lead to heavy rainfall at the end of the year. Temerloh, a district in Pahang, frequently experiences flooding events, especially between November and January. Despite various efforts in flood mitigation and preparation, the damage to both citizens and property each year results in costs amounting to thousands of Ringgits and the time needed to clean up the aftermath of floods. To address this issue, this research examined the hydrological and meteorological factors contributing to the floods in Temerloh and developed a machine-learning model capable of predicting future flood occurrences. The study utilized a dataset from the National Hydrological Network Management System (SPRHiN), which includes hydrological data and meteorological information for the specific location. The correlation analysis revealed a strong relationship between stream flow and water level to floods, with correlation coefficients (r values) of 0.83 and 0.76, respectively. In contrast, temperature exhibited an inverse relationship with floods, showing a correlation value of -0.28; this suggests that lower temperatures are associated with a higher likelihood of rain and subsequent flooding. The results indicated that the model, developed using an artificial neural network (ANN), achieved an impressive accuracy of 0.9909 and demonstrated strong performance, as evidenced by an area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) value of 0.888. The model also exhibited low error rates, with a mean squared error (MSE) of 0.009 and a root mean squared error (RMSE) of 0.096. Additionally, the R² value of 0.768 and the F1 score of 0.875 indicate that the model possesses high precision and recall. Furthermore, a flood monitoring dashboard was created to provide interactive data visualization. This research is essential for understanding the factors contributing to flooding in Pahang and will offer valuable insights for future studies on floods.

El documento a continuación es el resultado de una revisión exhaustiva de la literatura realizada en el año 2024 en búsqueda de programas y estrategias para fortalecer la asistencia, el compromiso y los factores contextuales que influyen en el compromiso escolar. Se realizó un levantamiento de estrategias y programas con evidencia científica en documentos institucionales, libros y artículos publicados entre los años 2000 y 2024 con la finalidad de identificar qué dice la evidencia científica y la literatura especializada en cuanto a estrategias para fomentar el compromiso escolar (en sus subdimensiones de compromiso conductual, cognitivo y afectivo), sus factores contextuales asociados (apoyo familiar, apoyo de pares y apoyo del profesorado) y una mejor asistencia. Con las estrategias seleccionadas se construyeron fichas que fueron revisadas y validadas por profesionales de la educación en Chile mediante un trabajo en conjunto con estudiantes de pregrado de Trabajo Social de la Universidad de Chile. Para cada estrategia se señala si es aplicable o no en un contexto no presencial, y si su implementación es de tipo personalizada (con un/a estudiante), focalizada (con un grupo de estudiantes) o universal (con todo el curso o la escuela). Este compendio es la tercera revisión de literatura realizada en la materia y viene a complementar el “Manual de intervenciones sobre el compromiso escolar: una variable clave para predecir procesos de desescolarización” (Saracostti et al., 2016), con información de distintos programas implementados a nivel internacional, y el “Manual de Estrategias de Promoción del Compromiso Escolar” (Proyecto SIESE, 2022), con contenidos sobre estrategias prácticas. Este nuevo manual considera programas y estrategias extraídas de la literatura actualizada que no fue revisada para los otros manuales y que esperamos sea de utilidad para quienes trabajan en las escuelas de manera directa o en gestión educativa.
Preservation of the Author’s Tonality as a Tool for Evaluating Translation Quality
Authors: Trofimova N. A. , Kovalenko D. D.
Published: November 2024

Introduction. This paper examines the methodology of text analysis using phono-semantic assessment based on the “VAAL-mini” program. The study includes an analysis of the original text and its translation to identify the author's tonality and its [non]preservation in the translation.

   The relevance of the chosen topic is determined by the application of psycholinguistic methods in the interpretation of V.P. Belyanin and the use of quantitative text analysis methods.

   The novelty of the research lies in employing the domestic linguistic computer program “VAAL-mini” as a tool capable of categorizing emotional elements of the text.

   Methodology and sources. The methodological foundation of the research is a psycholinguistic approach to assessing the quality of translation, which justifies the significance of the author category in the interpretation and translation of fiction texts. It also allows for an examination of how translation affects the perception and emotional response of the reader, as well as how accurately the translator conveys the cognitive and emotional aspects of the original text. The primary research method proposed is a quantitative method using the computer program “VAAL-mini”, which is capable of categorizing the emotional elements of the text. The material for the study is the novel by P. Suskind “Perfume: The Story of a Murderer” and its translation into Russian by E.V. Vengerova.

   Results and discussion. The literature review conducted allows for tracing the current state of psycholinguistics as per Belyanin and its developmental dynamics. In accordance with the identified concept, we performed a comprehensive analysis of P. Suskind's work “Perfume: The Story of a Murderer” and its Russian translation. The results of this analysis help to gain a deeper understanding of the emotional and lexical components of the text, as well as to assess the quality of the translation. The integration of a psycholinguistic approach with modern quantitative analysis methods-using corresponding computer programs enables a more comprehensive understanding of the studied work.

   Conclusion. As a result of the analysis based on determining the type of text using the linguistic application VAAL-mini, findings were obtained that refuted the external (qualitative) impression of stylistic and emotional equivalence between Süskind's original text and E.V. Vengerova's translation of the novel. This result demonstrates the viability of the proposed methodology for assessing translation quality.
