Authors: Ardi Zadrian , Ifdil Ifdil , Orji Chibueze Tobias , Zola Nilma
Published: April 2023

Students are susceptible to feeling pressure as a manifestation of the changes experienced during their educational process. These changes present themselves in a variety of different ways. This state is reasonably frequent among students, mainly when supporting causes of pressure are present. Some examples of these circumstances include living away from parents, shifting patterns of academic interactions from high school, differing academic expectations, and socio-cultural shifts. Moving beyond the theoretical foundation, empirical investigations, and phenomena in the area, there is a need for in-depth research and studies about attempts to identify models that alleviate the academic stress experienced by students. The Solution Focused Brief Counseling (SFBC) technique combined with the internet, and online media is one of these approaches. The goal of this research was to determine whether or not the SFBC method combined with the model of distant counseling might successfully alleviate the academic stress experienced by first-year students. The number of participants in this research was cut down to five college students to meet the research requirements. The design and analysis of the research adhere to the premise of using a single-subject experimental design combined with visual analysis. The findings demonstrated an overall reduction in the amount of academic stress experienced by students after two sessions, as well as an improvement in their condition by the time the session was through

Published: April 2023

The textile industry is the main source of environmental pollution in terms of quality and quantity. It consumes large amounts of water (200 m3/ tonne of products), and around 90% of the quantity is wastewater. Improper disposal of textile wastewater will cause serious environmental problems due to the presence of heavy metals in the waste which will adversely affect aquatic organisms. To analyze, the concentration of heavy metals in textile (batik) wastewater was collected from 15 small, medium, and large-scale textile industry waste disposal centers located at the Batik Industry Center of Kampoeng Batik Laweyan Surakarta, Indonesia August 2019. Standard methods of 22nd Edition 2012 APHA -AWWA-WEF with inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) was used to analyze the concentration of Iron (Fe), Copper (Cu), Chromium (Cr), Cadmium (Cd), Lead (Pb) and Nickel (Ni) in the sample. The results of the analysis showed that from 15 sample locations, several locations had levels of Cu, Pb, Ni, Cr, and Cd below the detection limit, i.e.  2 (<0.01 ppm), 13 (<0.02 ppm), 13 (<0.01 ppm), 15 (<0.01 ppm), and 15 (<0.02 ppm) locations for each metal respectively, while Fe levels were above the detection limit at all locations. The mean levels and number of locations for Fe, Cu, Pb, and Ni were 2.63 ± 5.01 (n = 15), 0.48 ± 0.99 (n = 13), 0.05 ± 0.03 (n = 2) and 0.02 ± 0.00 (n = 2) and the ranges of each metal level were 0.07-19.4 ppm, 0.01-3.73 ppm, 0.02-0.07 ppm, and 0.01-0.02 ppm respectively. Among these heavy metals, the highest concentration was Fe, and all samples had Cr and Pb levels below the detection limit. By comparing the results of this study with the safe limit for industrial wastewater according to Central Java Provincial Regulation No. 5 of 2012, only wastewater originating from two sampling locations can be used for irrigation and aquaculture, namely at locations B2 and B5

The problem of the availability of clean and safe water in Indonesia has increased during global climate change. The conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic also have an impact on increasing domestic water use. This study aims to assess drinking water access in household during COVID-19 pandemic. This study using data of National Household of Drinking Water Quality Survey. The survey conducted in 2020 of 21,829 household in Indonesia. Many households have increased water consumption, households for hand washing (49.6% HH), personal hygiene (37.2% HH), clean house (29.2% HH), and washing (33.9% HH). There are only 1.6% of HH have difficulty accessing drinking water source, 1.3% in urban area and 2.0% in rural area. The cause is 76.1% because of decreased water flow and 42.1% because of economic problems. Drinking water sources used by household who has difficulty accessing drinking water are piped water (26.8%), refill water (16.8%), and bore hole (13.6%). Only few of household difficult to access drinking water during COVID-19 pandemic, meanwhile there are increasingly of drinking water needs. It is suggested that the municipal government form a public-private partnership (PPP) to invest in immediate and long-term water infrastructure in order to strengthen the resilience of drinking water systems against future pandemics.

Published: April 2023

This study aims to assess the impact of computer simulations (CSs) within an inquiry-based learning (IBL) environment on grade 11 students’ performance in Newton’s second law of motion (NSLOM). The study sample consisted of 90 male and female students selected from a population of two public schools in Al Ain city in United Arab Emirates (UAE). The study employed a pre- and post-test quasi-experimental design involving four equally distributed grade 11 physics classes: two as experimental groups (EGs) (including 45 CS-bound students studying under scientific inquiry instructions) and the other two as control groups (including 45 CSs-free students studying under traditional face-to-face instructions). Newton’s second law of motion achievement test (NSLMAT) was used to evaluate students’ performance in NSLOM. Descriptive analysis was conducted using effect sizes and a paired-sample t-test. Overall, results suggested that, compared to face-to-face instruction, CSs were more successful in promoting students’ understanding of NSLOM topics. Moreover, EGs showed noticeable conceptual and procedural performance gains. The results indicated that CSs within an IBL environment helped female (d=2.10) and male (d=2.94) students better understand NSLOM conceptual topics. CSs within an IBL environment also helped male (d=0.88) and female (d=0.72) students better understand NSLOM. Finally, if properly designed, CSs within an IBL environment can significantly improve student learning of NSLOM. Therefore, the study recommends creating a supportive learning environment to encourage the use of CSs for purposes other than information presentation. Incorporating simulations into practical activities, problem-solving exercises, or group discussions could improve students’ critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. Allowing students to practice using the simulation before implementing it in actual learning activities is also crucial.

Antifungal activity of Chitosan Synthesized from Shrimp Shells (CSSS) was evaluated at different concentrations of 0.25mgml-1, 0.50 mgml-1, 0.75 mgml-1 and 1.0 mgml-1 against Aspergillus flavus. Shrimp shell synthesized chitosan gave off-white to light brownish semi-crystallized product. The protocol for the synthesis yield chitosan with 98.9% degree of deacetylation and Ultra Violet-visible spectra (UV-vis) at a wavelength of 232 nm. There were variations in mean mycelia growth of A. flavus at different concentrations of CSSS and incubation days. With increasing incubation days there was accompanying increase in mean mycelial growth of A. flavus. At day one mean mycelia growth were 0.75±.05, 1.40±.10, 1.55±.15 and 1.60±.10cm whilst at the fifth day of incubation, mycelia radial growth were 7.55±.55 3.10±2.4 , 6.45±.15 and 6.95±.95cm respectively at concentrations of 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1.0 (mgml-1) of CSSS. Control had highest mycelia radial growth (8.05) as compared to the different concentrations of treated samples. Highest Percentage Inhibition of A. flavus (61.7%) by CSSS was recorded in 0.5mgml-1, however 6.80%, 20.4%, 14.2% inhibition were recorded in 0.25, 0.75 and 1.0mgml-1 concentrations respectively which were significantly different. It is evident from the study that shrimp shell synthesized chitosan are likely biocontrol agent capable of preventing A. flavus growth and toxin production.

The practice of medicine in the modern era is exclusively evidence based, focuses on justifiable laboratory reports contributing effective and opportune patient management. For many years, clinical laboratories have picked up astounding significance in medical care services. Laboratory investigations are essential for medical diagnosis in patient care as well as medical research. Reliability of laboratory data/report is therefore of paramount importance. Good Clinical Laboratory Practices (GCLP) is essential to be implemented in the field of medical research and health care services to ensure reliability of laboratory data. Medical Laboratory Professionals endorse the decency, decorum, honour, morality, and self-respect of the profession and maintain a integrity, competence, reputation of honesty, authenticity, and accuracy. All laboratories engaged in testing of biological samples need to establish confidence in the quality and reliability of the results of these tests. In the current time, ethical concerns exist everywhere whether it is a medical field or life science. Medicine, at the center of which is the sick and dying man, has developed humanism and the morality of pity for the afflicted "Noli noceri",(First do no harm)"Salus aegroti - supreme lex"( let the welfare of the people be the supreme law ). It coincides with the motto of the World Academy of Medical Sciences mission. "Dedication to duty in a mission for mankind".
Efficiency and Effectiveness of the Hotels in the Covid-19 Period: Evidence from Cappadocia in Türkiye
Authors: KAYA Tekiner
Published: April 2023

Performance of the accommodation facilities should be measured and monitored periodically for sustainability in many dimensions which have potential to affect profitability directly. In this study, efficiencies of 88 hotels from Cappadocia/Türkiye are measured via data envelopment analysis. Four inputs and five outputs are considered to measure efficiencies and effectiveness in 2020 during the COVID-19 period. The data are collected via phone calls, hotels’ web pages and Tripadvisor in 2020. 83% of these hotels (73 hotels) are small-sized hotels which have equal or less than 20 rooms. Constant return to scale, variable return to scale and scale efficiencies of hotels are exposed via input-oriented data envelopment analysis. The findings show that facilities which have higher scale had lower classical efficiency. Additionally, it is observed that one of the main reasons for the inefficiency is revenue per available room. In terms of effectiveness, hotels working with travel agencies had a lower performance.
Bitcoin ile Karbon Emisyonu İlişkisi: Doğrusal Olmayan Eşbütünleşme Analizi
Authors: FELEK Şencan , KARADEMİR Cihat , CEYLAN Reşat
Published: April 2023

Bu çalışmada, 2017M1-2022M1 dönemleri arasındaki veriler kullanılarak Bitcoin (BTC) ile Karbon Emisyonu (CO2) arasındaki ilişki incelenmiştir. Son zamanlarda yapılan çalışmalara istinaden kripto para ve enerji piyasalarının spekülatif ve kırılgan yapıya sahip olduğu ve bundan dolayı değişkenlerin doğrusal olmayan bir forma sahip olabileceği konusuna dikkat çekildiği gözlenmektedir. Dolayısıyla bu bilgiler çerçevesinde çalışmada öncelikle Luukkonen vd. (1988), Harvey vd. (2008) doğrusallık testi ve Kapetanios vd. (2003) doğrusal olmayan birim kök testi ile değişkenlerin doğrusallık sınaması yapılmaktadır. Akabinde değişkenlerin doğrusal olmayan forma sahip olduğu tespit edildiği için çalışmada Kapetanios vd. (2006) Doğrusal Olmayan Eşbütünleşme analizi kullanılmaktadır. Kapetanios vd. (2006) testi bulgularına göre BTC ile CO2 arasında uzun dönemde doğrusal olmayan bir eşbütünleşme ilişkisi olduğu tespit edilmektedir. Bu durum BTC ile CO2 arasındaki ilişkinin uzun dönemde dengeye doğrusal olmayan bir şekilde yakınsadığı sonucunu göstermektedir. Değişkenler arasında doğrusal olmayan eşbütünleşme ilişkisini tespit ettikten sonra bu ilişkinin yönünü belirlemek amacıyla yapılan Granger nedensellik testi sonucuna göre ise Bitcoin’den Karbon Emisyonuna doğru tek yönlü nedensellik olduğu tespit edilmektedir. Bu bulgu, BTC üretiminde kullanılan enerjinin çevre dostu kaynaklardan elde edilmesine yönelik politikaların benimsenmesi gerektiği biçiminde yorumlanabilir.

visualizemi: Visualization, Effect Size, and Replication of Measurement Invariance for Registered Reports
Authors: Buchanan Erin Michelle
Published: April 2023

Latent variable modeling as a lens for psychometric theory is a popular tool for social scientists to examine measurement of constructs (Beaujean, 2014). Journals such as Assessment regularly publish articles supporting measures of latent constructs wherein a measurement model is established. Confirmatory factor analysis can be used to investigate the replicability and generalizability of the measurement model in new samples, while multi-group confirmatory factor analysis is used to examine the measurement model across groups within samples (Brown, 2015). With the rise of the replication crisis and “psychology’s renaissance” (Nelson et al., 2018), interest in divergence in measurement has increased, often focused on small parameter differences within the latent model. This manuscript presents visualizemi, an R package that provides functionality to calculate multigroup models, partial invariance, visualizations for (non)-invariance, effect sizes for models and parameters, and potential replication rates compared to random models. Readers will learn how to interpret the impact and size of the proposed non-invariance in models with a focus on potential replication and how to plan for registered reports.

Replication studies play a vital role in fortifying any research domain ensuring that its fundamental principles and methodologies are robust and reliable. Data visualization is a rapidly growing field with many theories, methods, and guidelines that need to be validated with replications. While most researchers in the data visualization community recognize and duly acknowledge the epistemic value of replication endeavors in establishing trust and reliability, the field has made minimal strides in encouraging and facilitating the publication of such studies. Replications are viewed to lack originality and novel contributions and are very difficult to publish. Moreover, there are no clear guidelines of what makes a study replicable and what factors constitute a good replication making it more challenging and further discouraging researchers from attempting to conduct these studies. To address these open questions, we replicate the seminal 2010 study by Bateman et al. on the effects of visual embellishments on user comprehension and memorability. We conducted four different replications of the paper in different ways to understand what constitutes a good and a bad replication study and provide guidelines to the community. We contribute detailed study designs and results of the four replications and compare them to the original study. Some of these replications validate the findings of the original study. We reflect on our experience of conducting the replications and provide actionable recommendations to avoid pitfalls when conducting such studies. With these guidelines and insights, we hope visualization researchers will be more confident and supported in designing and conducting replication studies. A preprint of this paper, along with the pre-registrations and all supplemental material, is available at https://osf.io/dferj/.
