Perceptions of Residents in Relation to Smartphone Applications to Promote Understanding of Radiation Exposure after the Fukushima Accident: A Cross-Sectional Study within and outside Fukushima Prefecture
Authors: Kuroda Yujiro , Goto Jun , Yoshida Hiroko , Takahashi Takeshi
Published: July 2022

Background: We conducted a cross-sectional study of residents within and outside Fukushima Prefecture to clarify their perceptions of the need for smartphone applications (apps) for explaining exposure doses. The results will lead to more effective methods for identifying target groups for future app development by researchers and municipalities, which will promote residents’ understanding of radiological situations.Materials and Methods: In November 2019, 400 people in Fukushima Prefecture and 400 people outside were surveyed via a web-based questionnaire. In addition to basic characteristics, survey items included concerns about radiation levels and intention to use a smartphone app to keep track of exposure. The analysis was conducted by stratifying responses in each region and then cross-tabulating responses to concerns about radiation levels and intention to use an app by demographic variables. The intention to use an app was analyzed by binomial logistic regression analysis. Text-mining analyses were conducted in KH Coder software.Results and Discussion: Outside Fukushima Prefecture, concerns about the medical exposure of women to radiation exceeded 30%. Within the prefecture, the medical exposure of women, purchasing food products, and consumption of own-grown food were the main concerns. Within the prefecture, having children under the age of 18, the experience of measurement, and having experience of evacuation were significantly related to the intention to use an app.Conclusion: Regional and individual differences were evident. Since respondents differ, it is necessary to develop and promote app use in accordance with their needs and with phases of reconstruction. We expect that a suitable app will not only collect data but also connect local service providers and residents, while protecting personal information.
Voices of the invisible: Education policy promoting Asian American youths
Authors: Jang Soo Bin
Published: July 2022

The objective of this commentary is to call attention to the importance of education policy that promotes Asian American (AA) communities. I argue AA communities have not received enough attention in the domain of education policy primarily due to the stereotypes embedded in the dominant “model minority myth” and “perpetual foreigner ideology.” Furthermore, I discuss how the exclusion and misrepresentation of AA communities lead to civic and political alienation of AA youths, in addition to physical and psychological violence toward these populations. I conclude by proposing research questions related to promoting AA actors in education policymaking.

Published: July 2022

Se presenta una primera revisión sistemática de la investigación psicológica sobre
la pandemia de la COVID-19 realizada en España. Dado que esta investigación se ha
centrado en el impacto emocional de la pandemia, se presenta también una revisión
sistemática de los estudios sobre la prevalencia de la depresión, la ansiedad, el estrés
postraumático, el estrés y el malestar emocional durante la pandemia en la población
general adulta española. Se realizó una búsqueda en PsycInfo que identificó 18 estudios
en los que, en conjunto, se había evaluado a 57 681 personas. Los resultados permiten
estimar que la prevalencia de la sintomatología moderada-grave en la población general
adulta española durante la primera ola de la pandemia fue de 18.6% para la depresión,
12.7% para la ansiedad, 33.1% para el estrés postraumático, 21.5% para el estrés y 29.5% para
el malestar emocional. Estos resultados se discuten en el contexto de las limitaciones
de los estudios realizados durante la pandemia, ya que la inmensa mayoría se realizaron
por internet y con muestreos no probabilísticos con el método de bola de nieve y, por
tanto, son susceptibles a los sesgos derivados de la autoselección y de la exclusión de las
personas sin acceso a internet.

Finite element analysis of the soil and foundations of the Al-Kufa Mosque
Authors: Al-Jiboury Hasan Mahdi , Fakhraldin Mohammed Kadum
Published: July 2022

The Great Mosque of Kufa, built in 639 CE and located in Al-Kufa, Iraq, is considered one of the most important mosques in the Islamic world. Because cracks appeared in the historical walls of the Al-Kufa Mosque during the construction of the Muslim Bin Aqeel Underpass, the values and locations of bending moment and shear force may be useful for wall maintenance. So, this study aims to determine the maximum and minimum values and locations of settlement, bending moment, and shear forces under the mosque walls’ foundations. Historical references are used to know the previous architectures of the mosque. Also, archaeological investigation reports are adopted to find out the characteristics of the foundations like their dimensions, depths, and materials. Soil investigation reports are used to know the soil layer’s properties and parameters. For non-mentioned soil parameters in soil investigation reports, they are determined depending on the theoretical equations, charts, statistical correlations, and models. A model of soil layers, foundations, and walls is conducted and analyzed using finite element software to determine the deformations of soil layers under the mosque’s brick foundations and walls. According to the analysis, maximum bending moment and shear force were found under the minaret near the Al-Thuaban gate.

Published: July 2022

We present a new corpus-based resource and methodology for the annotation of Latin lexical semantics, consisting of 2,399 annotated passages of 40 lemmas from the Latin diachronic corpus LatinISE. We also describe how the annotation was designed, analyse annotators’ styles, and present the preliminary results of a study on the lexical semantics and diachronic change of the 40 lemmas. We complement this analysis with a case study on semantic vagueness. As the availability of digital corpora of ancient languages increases, and as computational research develops new methods for large-scale analysis of diachronic lexical semantics, building lexical semantic annotation resources can shed new light on large-scale patterns in the semantic development of lexical items over time. We share recommendations for designing the annotation task that will hopefully help similar research on other less-resourced or historical languages.
Barriers to maternal and reproductive health care in India due to COVID-19

Published: July 2022

COVID-19 and its associated lockdowns and restrictions on movement may be impacting women and men’s access to and use of health care services including contraceptive, prenatal, and postnatal care. Yet we know little of its impact to date, especially in low- and middle-income countries, including India. Understanding how COVID-19 impacts the use of these services now, and as it persists, is essential for improving access and use today. Additionally, these data are necessary to understand fertility and other health-related outcomes we may see in the future. The objectives of this study are to understand a Facebook sample of respondent’s perceived barriers to contraceptive, prenatal, and postnatal care in India and how these changed over 4 months of the COVID-19 pandemic. To meet this need, we conducted four rounds of monthly online surveys with men and women (N = 9,140) recruited using Facebook ads in India between April and July 2020, a period when the national lockdown was tapered from the strictest to restricted. While about 75% of respondents reported no barriers to contraception due to COVID-19, about half of those pregnant or postpartum reported barriers to pre- and postnatal care. Barriers to care for contraception, prenatal, and postnatal care increased significantly over time. Most respondents reported some change on fertility preferences, with more respondents reporting desire to delay, rather than to have a child sooner, due to COVID-19. Overall, as the early COVID-19 pandemic persisted, barriers to reproductive and maternal health care increased in India, suggesting that as the pandemic continued there have likely been additional challenges for people seeking these services. It is essential that health care providers begin to address these barriers to ensure access to care throughout these important time periods.
The Urgency of Completing Revision of Indonesia's Anti-Terrorism Law
Authors: Tastama Ridho Dwiki
Published: July 2022

On 18 October 2002, Anti-Terrorism Law was signed into law by Megawati Soekarnoputri This kind of law has caused a significant legal controversy in because this law signed only six days after the unfamous Bali Bombings took place on 12 October 2002. The Law itself had first been drafted in 2002 more precisely in April on response to the then most recent terrorist incident which opened the eyes of global citizen from the danger of terrorism, the 9/11 incident in New York 2001. From 2002, The Anti-Terrorism LAW has been used to punish and investigate those who involved in the many incidents such as the bombing of the Marriot Hotel in 2003, the Australian Embassy incident in September 2004, and the round two of Bali bombing which take place in October 2005. Since 2005 the proposed revision of the Anti-Terrorism Law getting stronger. The proposed revision mainly talks about the addition of term of arrest and detention.

Published: July 2022

The rise of fake news (hoax) circulating in the community is a serious threat to the Indonesian nation, because it can divide the unity of Indonesia. Indonesia, which is a multi-cultural country consisting of various religions, ethnicities, races, and ethnicities, is vulnerable to conflicts between community groups. Fake news is news that contains information that is not in accordance with the actual situation. Fake news aims to deceive, cause hatred, or hostility to certain individuals or groups of people based on religion, race, and between groups. This paper explains how fake news or hoaxes can break Indonesian unity. How is fake news in the perspective of criminology to find out the motives and goals of the perpetrators of spreading fake news, fake news in the perspective of Pancasila, as well as the efforts that can be made by the community and government to prevent and overcome the spread of fake news. The thing to do to prevent fake news is to sort out the news in order to prevent believing in fake news (hoax), by not only reading the news title, but also paying attention to the URL address of the site, and checking the facts, whether the content of the news is credible and sourced from official institution.
International Refugees in The Protection of Human Rights: A Discourse of International Humanitarian Law and Human Rights Law
Authors: Supriyadi Slamet
Published: July 2022

Refugees are defined as people who are due to a reasonable fear of persecution, caused by reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership in certain social groups and political parties, are outside their nationality and do not want protection from the country. When refugees leave their home country or residence, they leave their lives, homes, possessions and family. The refugees cannot be protected by their home country because they are forced to leave their country. Therefore, protection and assistance to them is the responsibility of the international community. In countries receiving refugees, they often experience inhumane treatment such as rape, assault, discrimination, repatriated by force, those lead to the violation of human rights. There has been regulation for human rights in refugee issues both internationally and regionally, for instance Convention related to Status of Refugee 1951 and The Protocol related to the Status of Refugee 1967. There are at least five basic rights of refugees, they are the right to be protected from returning to the country of origin forcibly (non refoulement), the right to seek asylum, the right to obtain equality and non-discrimination, the right to live and to be secured, as well as the right to return home.
Individual Freedom in the Legal Discourse in Indonesia
Authors: Agustinus Eko
Published: July 2022

Indonesia is one of the countries included in the state law. Law is a rule that can not be separated from our daily life where every joint of our lives is in the shade of law. Laws other than to protect us from abuse of power, the law is also used to uphold justice. This freedom is the hallmark of modern society today. But freedom has certain qualities. A free individual does not mean that they can do things themselves, such as damaging their surroundings, destroying other people's goods, harassing a man's wife or husband and so on. Of the 1945 Constitution Article 28 E is Everyone is free to embrace religion and worship according to his religion, choosing education and teaching, choosing a job, choosing citizenship, choosing a residence in the territory of the country and abandoning it, and the right to return, Everyone has the right to freedom of belief, expression of thoughts and attitudes, in accordance with his conscience, Everyone has the right to freedom of association, assembly, and expression.

Serat Baron Sakendher: Sejarah Legitimasi Kolonial di Tanah Jawa pada Abad XIX
Authors: , Widodo , Pujiastuti Titik , Sihombing Priscila Fitriasih , Sudibyo Sudibyo
Published: July 2022

Serat Baron Sakendher (SBS) is one of the classic Javanese works that narrates the relationship between the Javanese and the Belanda. The SBS script was written in the post-Java war of 1830, when the south-central part of Java was politically completely controlled by the Belanda. The kings and aristocrats in the four Javanese palaces were very submissive to the authority of the VOC as well as being an extension of the power to suppress and explore the population. SBS became the legitimacy of the Javanese king's power over his people as well as the history of the presence of white people. SBS was written by Ngabei Yudasara and later developed by Carik Sasanapustaka. In four Javanese courts, the SBS script was rewritten by different authors during the reign of the same king and duke. Until now, through catalog searches, 21 SBS scripts were found with different panedhak and in different years. It is narrated that at first the presence of Baron Sakendher (BS) to Java was to trade and expand the territory. But when he arrived in the Mataram area, he lost to Panembahan Senopati, the first Mataram King. Finally, BS and his brother made up their mind to serve the Javanese rulers by changing their form into subtle creatures who served and protected the King of Mataram. This narrative reverses with the orientalism narrative which is echoed by the west against the east. West as the ocean and east as the other. Javanese poets view the presence of westerners on the contrary from the discourse of orientalism. West was seen by Javanese poets as someone who came to serve the Javanese rulers.
Does anti-nerve growth factor monoclonal antibody treatment have the potential to replace nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and opioids in treating hip or knee osteoarthritis? A systematic review of randomized controlled trials
Authors: Zhao Di , Zeng Ling-feng , Liang Gui-hong , Pan Jian-ke , Luo Ming-hui , Han Yan-hong , Liu Jun , Yang Wei-yi
Published: July 2022

Purpose

Considering the adverse effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and opioids for treating osteoarthritis (OA), development of drugs that are more effective and better tolerated than existing treatments is urgently needed. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anti-nerve growth factor (NGF) monoclonal antibodies vs active comparator therapy, such as NSAIDs and oxycodone, in treating hip or knee OA.

Methods

Databases were comprehensively searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published before January 2022. Efficacy and safety outcomes were assessed.

Results

Six RCTs that included 4325 patients were identified. Almost all the RCTs indicated that moderate doses of anti-NGF monoclonal antibody treatment significantly improved efficacy outcomes based on the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain score, the WOMAC physical function score and the Patient’s Global Assessment compared with those of the active comparator. At least half of the RCTs indicated that the incidence of severe adverse events, withdrawals due to adverse events (AEs) and total joint replacement were not significantly different between anti-NGF monoclonal antibody treatment and active comparator therapy, but the outcomes of some studies may have been limited by a short duration of follow-up. Most RCTs suggested that anti-NGF monoclonal antibody treatment had a lower incidence of gastrointestinal and cardiovascular AEs. However, the majority of RCTs reported a higher incidence of abnormal peripheral sensation with anti-NGF monoclonal antibody treatment. Furthermore, the higher incidence of rapidly progressive osteoarthritis (RPOA) with anti-NGF monoclonal antibody treatment should also not be overlooked, and the identification of patient characteristics that increase the risk of RPOA is critical in further studies.

Conclusion

Based on the current research evidence, anti-NGF monoclonal antibodies are not yet a replacement for analgesic drugs such as NSAIDs but might be a new treatment option for hip or knee OA patients who are intolerant or unresponsive to nonopioid or opioid treatment. Notably, however, considering the inconsistency and inconclusive evidence on the safety outcomes of recent studies, more research is needed, and long-term follow-up is required.

Despite the high incidence of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), treatment is very diverse. Therefore, the Dutch Orthopedic Society developed a clinical practice guideline with recommendations for optimal and uniform treatment of DDH. This article summarizes the guideline on centered DDH (i.e. Graf types 2A–C).

The guideline development followed the criteria of Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II. A systematic literature review was performed to identify randomized controlled trials and comparative cohort studies including children <1 year with centered DDH. Articles were included that compared (1) treatment with observation, (2) different abduction devices, (3) follow-up frequencies, and (4) discontinuation methods. Recommendations were based on Grading Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation, which included the literature, clinical experience and consensus, patient and parent comfort, and costs.

Out of 430 potentially relevant articles, 5 comparative studies were included. Final guideline recommendations were (1) initially observe 3-month-old patients with centered DDH, start abduction treatment if the hip does not normalize after 6–12 weeks; (2) prescribe a Pavlik harness to children <6 months with persisting DDH on repeated ultrasonography, consider alternative abduction devices for children >6 months; (3) assess patients every 6 weeks; and (4) discontinue the abduction device when the hip has normalized or when the child is 12 months.

This paper presents a summary of part 1 of the first evidence-based guideline for treatment of centered DDH in children <1 year. Part 2 presents the guideline on decentered DDH in a separate article.

Authors: Machovenko Jevgenij
Published: July 2022

This article determines, based on legal norms, case law, and the scientific doctrine, the significance of legal customs in Lithuania in 1918–1940: it describes the legal customs in the status quo res erant ante bellum, i.e., in relation to which social groups and to what extent were the customs applied in Lithuania under the law of the Russian Empire. The significance of the constitutional provision on the reception of pre-war law for legal customs is revealed. The paper also describes the policy of the legislator with regard to legal customs, the limits of the application of customs by law, and the tendencies of legislation in this regard.
Heavy cluster radioactivity and decay mode of Superheavy element 306^120
Authors: SANTHOSH K P , Jose Tinu Ann , Deepak N. K.
Published: July 2022

Background: Many theoretical studies and experimental attempts are conducted to synthesize SHN with Z =120 being an element with a proton magic number. The prediction of the island of stability also encourages scientists to search for the existence of super heavy nuclei near Z=120.Purpose: Main aim of our work is to predict all heavy cluster emissions from superheavy nuclei (SHN) 306120. Methods: Modified Generalized Liquid drop model (MGLDM) with Q value dependent pre-formation factor [Phys. Rev. C, 99, 064604 (2019)] is the theoretical model used to calculate the alpha and cluster decay half-life of SHN 306120. The spontaneous fission half-life is predicted using the shell effect and mass inertia dependent formula by our group [Phys. Rev. C, 104, 024617 (2021)].Results: We investigate all cluster emissions from 306120, and the fragment combination 123Cd (Z=48) leading to 183Hf daughter nucleus is predicted to be a probable heavy cluster decay with halflives comparable with alpha decay half-lives. The heavy cluster 137Xe (N=83) with 169Dy daughter nucleus is predicted to be the most probable cluster decay with the least half-life among all fragment combinations. Thus, our study shows the role of the magic number of proton and neutron in cluster decay. We also predict that the superheavy element 306120 decays by 4 alpha chains followed by spontaneous fission.Conclusions: The predicted half-life in the case of alpha decay and heavy cluster emission from SHN 306120 are within experimental limits and we hope that our predictions will guide future experiments.

Published: July 2022

In this scientific paper, thermochemical conversion of redwood (RW) was studied. Using the thermogravimetric analysis' technique (TGA), the thermal behavior of RW samples was examined at four heating rates ranging from 5 to 20 K min−1 in inert atmosphere between 300 and 900 K. Two main objectives have been set for this study; the first one was the determination of the kinetic decomposition parameters of RW (Pinus sylvestris L.), and the second one was the study of the variation of characteristic parameters from the TG-DTG curves of the main RW's components, such as; cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. The kinetic analysis was performed using three isoconversional methods (Vyazovkin (VYA), Friedman (FR) and Flynn-Wall-Ozawa (FWO)), Avrami theory method and the Integral master-plots (Z(x)/Z(0.5)) method to estimate activation energy (Ea), reaction order (n), pre-exponential factor (A) and model kinetic (f(x)) for the thermal decomposition of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin components.

The DTG and TG curves showed that three stages identify the thermal decomposition of RW, the first stage corresponds to the decomposition of hemicellulose and the second stage corresponds to the cellulose, while the third stage corresponds to the lignin's decomposition. For the range of conversion degree (x) investigated (0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.7), the mean values of apparent activation energies for RW biomass were 127.60–130.65 KJ mol−1, 173.74–176.48 KJ mol−1 and 197.21–200.36 KJ mol−1 for hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin, respectively. Through varied temperatures from 550 to 600 K for hemicellulose, from 600 to 650 K for cellulose and from 750 to 800 K for lignin, the corresponding mean values of reaction order (n) were 0.200 for hemicellulose, 0.209 for cellulose and 0.047 for lignin. The pre-exponential factor's average values for three components of RW ranges from 0.08 × 1012 s−1 to 2.5 × 1012 s−1 (Ahemicellulose = 1.09 × 1012 s−1), 0.10 × 1014 s−1 to 0.28 × 1014 s−1 (Acellulose = 0.17 × 1014 s−1) and 3.07 × 1016 s−1 to 3.69 × 1016 s−1 (Alignin = 3.33 × 1016 s−1), respectively. The experimental data of RW had overlapped the D4, D2 and F3 in the conversion degree of 10–30%, 30–55% and 55–70% for the three components, respectively.
As escolas cristãs de Jean Baptiste de La Salle e as transformações políticas e religiosas na França dos séculos XVII e XVIII
Authors: Alves Jhonatan , Toledo Cézar de Alencar Arnaut de
Published: July 2022

Este artigo tem por objetivo discutir a fundação das Escolas Cristãs e do Instituto dos Irmãos das Escolas Cristãs, iniciada por São João Batista de La Salle em 1694 na França. Apesar de comumente associados a uma instituição unicamente confessional, o que se observa na proposta pedagógica de tais escolas é um ensino reformista mas atento às necessidades sociais e que ia além da proposta tradicional de educação cristã presente nas demais instituições confessionais. La Salle arquitetou o ideal responsável pela condução das práticas pedagógicas encontradas em suas “pequenas escolas”, bem como na vida e formação dos primeiros mestres-irmãos. Sua originalidade se deu não apenas no campo pedagógico, mas também eclesial, reforçando o modelo congregacional de vida consagrada, formado exclusivamente por leigos, cujo propósito era o de prepará-los para a tarefa de alfabetizar os filhos dos pobres e artesãos, a partir de um projeto aristocrático de ensino. Em seu trabalho, juntamente com os Irmãos das escolas, o que se viu foi uma educação que, apesar da rigidez no cumprimento das regras, viabilizou uma expansão da educação elementar para os mais pobres ao longo do século XVIII especialmente na França.
Yok Olmuş Bir Yapının Bellekteki Yeri: Trabzon Opera Binası
Authors: YANILMAZ Zeynep , YALÇINKAYA Şengül
Published: July 2022

Bu çalışmada amaç, sosyo-kültürel yaşam içerisinde yer alan mimari yapıların kent kimliğinin ve toplumsal belleğin oluşması için korunması gerekliliğine dikkat çekmektir. Problem 1958’de yıkılan Trabzon Opera Binası özelinde ele alınmış olup, kent tarihinde önemli bir yere sahip olmasına karşın yok olan bir yapının toplum belleğinde ne ölçüde ve nasıl taşındığı irdelenmiştir. Buradan hareketle yapının kent yaşamı ve kimliği için önemini tespit edebilmek adına yapıyı görmüş-kullanmış kişiler ve araştırmacılardan oluşan 8 kişi ile görüşme yapılmıştır. Bu görüşmeler sonucunda kentlerde yer alan yapıların, kente ve kentliye sundukları işlev ve sağladıkları sosyal değerlerin önemi irdelenmiş ve bu yapıların fiziksel olarak yok olmasının zaman içerisinde yapının kente kazandırdığı değerlerin de yok olmasına neden olduğu ortaya koyulmuştur. Kentsel çevre içerisinde yer alan yapıları sadece işlevsel bir görevin karşılığı olarak görmemek gerekmektedir. Onlar bir dönemin tanıkları, yaşanmışlıkların ara yüzleri olarak birer hatırlatma, unutturmama araçlarıdır. Bir yapının eskimesi, işlev kaybı veya kapasite olarak yetersiz kalmasının yıkılması için bir gerekçe olarak sunulmaması ve kent için öneminin iyi sorgulanması gerekmektedir. Bu bağlamda yapılan çalışma ile kent kimliği için önem arz eden bir yapı ile ilgili veri elde etmenin yanı sıra kent kimliği ve sürekliliği açısından bu tür yapıların fiziksel varlığının korunabilmesi gerekliliğine de vurgu yapılmıştır.
Model of acceptable and sustainable development of social-ecology-economic systems based on the circularity principle in biosphere cycles
Authors: Dolgushin A. B. , Mazina S. E. , Larionova I. A.
Published: July 2022

The article presents the model for social-ecology-economic acceptable and sustainable development based on the mutual subordination of subsystems. The model was created within the concept of sustainable development and is based on the principle of use of matter and energy by living organisms and the principle of circularity of matters in the biosphere. The authors study the problem of the sustainable development evaluation of the systems and their integral indicators. The most popular and even globally recognized methods have one major flaw that is applying financial indicators in sustainability evaluation. The authors suggest using universal units of measurement for quantitative characteristics of evaluation of development sustainability both of the biosphere as a whole and of socio-economic-environmental systems or social, economic and environmental systems taken separately.
Regional integration in Africa: Proposals for an Africa-wide payment system
Authors: Monye Ogochukwu , Monye Ebelechukwu
Published: July 2022

Regional integration remains a priority in Africa. Fuelled by the call of Pan-African leaders including Kwame Nkrumah and the recognition of the potential within the continent to transform intra-African trade and achieve global competitiveness, the Africa Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA) was conceived. The African Union, in collaboration with the Africa Export-Import Bank (AFREXIM), has accordingly proposed the Pan-African Payment Settlement System (PAPSS). This system is expected to facilitate crossborder financial flows in local currencies and in real-time across the region, address the multiplicity and inconvertibility of currencies, reduce transaction costs, and decrease the use of correspondent banks. The authors analyse the necessity of getting this system right, alluding to the theory of developmental regionalism. The article concludes with recommendations that could make this unified payment system formidable enough to enable direct and seamless transactions between Amari in Addis and Wale in Lagos.

Refocusing on Listening Skills and Note-Taking: Imperative Skills for University Students’ Learning in an L2 Environment
Authors: Ngwoke Festus Uwakwe , Ugwuagbo Walter , Nwokolo Basil Okwudilichukwu
Published: July 2022

Listening as the foremost language skill remains an indispensable language skill in human communication, language teaching, and learning. Its indispensability lies in its being the pillar upon which other language skills are built (Obiweluozo & Melefa, 2013). Note-taking as a post-listening activity is a very crucial step for remembering what has been captured through listening since information retention lasts shortly. Irrespective of the glaring importance of listening skills and note-taking strategies to language learning, university students from very common observations have continued to neglect these skills, hence the poor performance in other language skills and other learning activities. For this reason, this paper is set to investigate the importance of listening skills for effective language teaching and learning of university students, examine to what extent listening skills have been neglected/overlooked by university students, and explore the positive effects of note-taking strategies on listening skills as well as language learning. The data for this study will be elicited from first-year undergraduates of University of Nigeria, Nsukka using a well-structured questionnaire with 31questionnaire items based on the aspects of listening skills and note-taking strategies. The paper shall be descriptively analysed and findings exposed with proper recommendations.
Animalising and Mechanising Self-Determined Women Characters Regardless of Their Class Structure in Jasoda — A Feministic Perspective
Authors: J. Caro Velma , G. Alan
Published: July 2022

The study illustrates that sexual harassment endured by women, is no way related with their class, position, hierarchy, culture, place or security. Jasoda contributes to this research by exhibiting the women characters belonging to varied societal standards undergoing abuse and oppression regardless of the hierarchal structure. The author surprises the readers by drafting women characters with self-determined characteristics and stooping to bear the patriarchal pressure exerted over them. The study throws light on the complex psychic behaviour of the independent woman protagonist, successful in sustaining herself and the family all by her own, yet subduing to her husband’s patriarchal oppression. Patriarchy steps forward in every situation where women are objectified or animalised. The paper further studies the animalisation and mechanisation of the female body by the male patriarch and also focuses on the breakage of stereotypes, built by the patriarchal power, over women society and femininity.
Epistemic Modality in English-Medium Artificial Intelligence Research Articles: A Systemic–Functional Perspective
Authors: Bo Gefei , Ma Jianjun
Published: July 2022

Epistemic modality is a crucial tool for describing the speaker's judgment—or request for the judgment of the listener—that has gained broad recognition and been widely investigated in academic writing. This research investigates the use of epistemic modality in 50 English-medium artificial intelligence (AI) research articles (RAs) from a systemic–functional perspective. Our research focuses on the frequency and function of the value, orientation, and polarity of epistemic modality in AI RAs. The results reveal that these AI RA writers tend to use both high- and low-value modality with explicitly objective orientation and positive polarity and that the epistemic modality performs the interpersonal function. This indicates that AI RA writers tend to ensure the objectivity of their results and that these writers adopt varying attitudes and hold differing views toward AI technology and thus have not yet achieved consensus. The study furthers the understanding of scholars’ attitudes toward AI statements in recent years.
Toni Morrison and Susan Abulhawa Writing Female Characters Amidst Conflict and Warzones: Towards a Literary Matrilineal Lineage
Authors: Khatir Hadjer , Mukattash Eman
Published: July 2022

The present article examines cases of sexual violence that are projected from wars and conflicts on women in Morrison’s Beloved (1997) and Abulhawa’s The Blue Between Sky and Water (2015). As we intend to study the violence projected on some female characters and trace the connection between Morrison’s Sethe and Ella and Abulhawa’s Nazmiyeh and Nur in light of Gilbert and Gubar’s theory “The Anxiety of Authorship” (2000), we endeavour as well to trace the connection between Morrison and Abulhawa’s treatment of “high themes” such as sexual harassment which, in return, helps ascertain their “artful foliage” as Gilbert and Gubar argue and overcome the hierarchical literary tradition of their forefathers to establish a literary matriarchal tradition that is inclusive of ethnic diversity.
