Authors: Mahande Ridwan Daud , Setialaksana Wirawan , Abdal Nurul Mukhlisah , Lamada Mustari
Published: January 2024

Equity is an important issue in student learning. HyFlex as a learning modality provides students an equitable opportunity to access learning through several modalities, which correlate with students’ cognitive styles. The study investigates the relationship between student learning and cognitive styles, student-preferred modalities, and their equity in learning. The digital survey was sent to students and 451 students filled out the survey voluntarily. A structural equation model was developed to investigate the relationship between variables. The results indicate that students with innovation styles had a higher impact than students with an adaption style on the choice of three HyFlex learning modalities. The findings also show that student-preferred modalities encourage them to have equity in their learning. The current research provides novel knowledge on fostering learning equity by developing and adjusting students’ cognitive styles to choose HyFlex learning modalities.

“The Father of the Bosniak Nation”: Personality and Politics of the President of Bosnia and Herzegovina Alija Izetbegović
Authors: Bezruchenko Viktor
Published: January 2024

The article covers the personality and activities of the first President of independent Bosnia and Herzegovina Alija Izetbegović. The article is based on original Bosniak and Serb sources and English-language literature and aims to analyze the political views and values of A. Izetbegović, establish the basic facts related to his political and military activities. The author examines Izetbegovic’s political career, his role in the pan-Islamist organization “Young Muslims”, and the formation of his political views. He examines and analyzes Izetbegović’s main works – “The Islamic Declaration” and “Islam between East and West” that belong to the trend of political Islam. The author also analyzes Izetbegovic‘s political platform, the armed putsch in April 1992, and Izetbegovic‘s military and political activities during the 1992–1995 war in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Faced with inevitable social and political changes, Izetbegovic’s regime was incapable to accept them and relied on conservative nationalist ideas. The ideology of Izetbegovic’s Party of Democratic Action was based on political Islam and pursued the goal of building a unitary Islamic state. Izetbegović initiated the referendum for independence that led to a civil war. Izetbegovic regarded any demands of national autonomy for Serbs and Croats as “a partition of Bosnia and Herzegovina” and rejected all plans for a peaceful settlement that were offered by international mediators. The strategic objectives of A. Izetbegovic’s regime were creation of an Islamic state, destruction the Republika Srpska, and expulsion of Serbs from the BiH territory.

French adaptation and validation of the Niigata PPPD Questionnaire: measure of severity of persistent postural perceptual dizziness and its association with psychiatric comorbidities and perceived handicap
Authors: Meletaki Vasiliki , Maélis GOBINET , Léonard Jacques , Elzière Maya , Lopez Christophe
Published: January 2024

Background and Objectives: Postural Perceptual Persistent Dizziness (PPPD) is a functional vestibular condition. Despite being the most common chronic neuro-otologic disorder, it remains underdiagnosed and under-treated. The Niigata PPPD Questionnaire (NPQ), developed by Yagi et al. in 2019 to assess the severity of PPPD, could be a useful tool to help the screening and diagnosis of this condition. This study aimed to validate a French version of the NPQ and make it an available diagnostic tool. Moreover, we aimed to better understand the characteristics of PPPD patients.Methods: The NPQ was translated and adapted into French. 50 PPPD patients, 50 patients with vestibular disorders without PPPD, and 50 healthy controls were included. They answered the adapted NPQ and additional questionnaires assessing trait (STAI) and state-anxiety (HADS-A), depression (HADS-D) and handicap related to dizziness (DHI). The NPQ’s reliability was assessed by Cronbach’s alpha. Intergroup comparisons examined the characteristics of PPPD patients compared to vestibular patients and healthy controls, and to validate NPQ’s reliability. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were carried out to determine the diagnostic values of the NPQ total score and sub-scores. Relations between NPQ and reported handicap, depression and anxiety were evaluated by correlations between questionnaires scores.Results: The internal consistency was high (> 0,8) for all NPQ subscales and the total score. Intergroup comparisons showed a significantly higher NPQ total score and sub-scores in the PPPD group compared to the two others. Exploratory analysis showed an effect of antidepressant treatment on NPQ score differences between groups. The ROC curve analysis showed a significant, but poor, discrimination of NPQ (AUC = 0.664) and its subscales. DHI scores, depressive symptoms and trait anxiety were significantly higher in PPPD patients than in vestibular patients and healthy controls. State anxiety did not differ between PPPD and vestibular patients. Finally, there was a significant correlation between the NPQ and the DHI.Discussion: Our study provides a better understanding of PPPD symptomatology and its assessment. It showed that the NPQ is a reliable tool that can assist in PPPD diagnosis and symptom assessment for a French speaking population.
I Forgot That You Existed: Role of Memory Accessibility in the Gender Citation Gap
Authors: Yan Veronica X. , Muenks Katherine , Henderson Marlone De Shaun
Published: January 2024

Recent studies have found a citation gap in psychology favoring men. This citation gap is subsequently reflected in differences in h-index scores, a crude measure, but important one for impact for career advancement. We examine a potential reason for the gap: that male researchers are more likely to come to mind than female researchers (i.e., a difference in memory accessibility). In a survey, faculty from psychology departments in R1 institutions in the United States listed up to five names they considered experts in their field, and up to five names they considered rising stars (defined as pre-tenure) in their field. Results revealed that the proportion of female experts recalled by women generally matched the percentage of more senior female faculty at R1 institutions, whereas the proportion recalled by men was much lower as compared to this baseline. With rising stars, we observed both underrepresentation of women from male participants and, unexpectedly, overrepresentation of women from female participants, as compared to the percentage of more junior female faculty at R1 institutions. For both experts and rising stars, male names were also more likely to be generated earlier in lists by male respondents, but women did not vary in the order in which they listed women versus men. Despite the differences in recall observed in our data, there was no such gap in name recognition, suggesting that the gap is one of accessibility—who comes to mind. Implications and recommendations for psychology researchers are discussed.

Authors: Baral Ekta , Adhikari Basanta Prasad , Gurung Reena
Published: January 2024

Students pursuing foreign degrees are an increasing trend and this trend is a debatable phenomenon in Nepal; Nepali undergraduates prefer foreign degrees over Nepali ones. This article examined the significant factors influencing for Nepali undergraduates to decide on seeking foreign degrees. This study applied a quantitative research approach along with the survey to view the social reality and collect data from one hundred and forty-six participants planning to go abroad for their higher studies. The survey questionnaire was used as a data collection tool and a simple random sampling method was used for this study. Principal Component Analysis was used for dimension reduction and then binary logistic regression was applied to find the association the factor driving Nepali students seeking foreign degree and their motivation. The findings indicate a positive association between broader career options and Nepalese Bachelor level students pursuing foreign degrees. But the results indicate no association between comprehensive education, progressive curriculum, prospects and growth, social influence, diverse and unique exposure, and degree relevancy and their motivation. The study’s findings imply that considering the motivational factors identified, adopting a holistic approach to higher education in Nepal could provide better support for Nepali students seeking for abroad study. This approach would foster their personal and professional development and contribute significantly to Nepal’s overall progress and advancement.

Authors: Sapkota Mohan Prasad , Sapkota Dipak , Adhikari Gaurav , Sharma Monika
Published: January 2024

The major portion of the Nepalese economy is based on agriculture. The country’s rural areas are home to almost 80% of the inhabitants, who are engaged in agriculture. People are compelled or forced to migrate due to a variety of reasons including poverty, desperation, unfair resource distribution, and a lack of opportunity. This study’s major goal is to determine how remittances affect the socio-economic aspects of households both before and after they receive remittances. The Bhadaure, Tamagi village at Ward number 4 of the Annapurna Rural Municipality is the place where the current study was carried out. Only 50 respondents out of 200 migrants working abroad were chosen at random as a sample of the study. The research method was a case study design, the quantitative data were collected using structured questionnaire where SPSS version 20 was used for data analysis. The objective of the study was to identify the impacts of remittances on the expenditure of migrant households and compare the position of remittance holders before and after receiving remittances. The findings of the study highlight the positive impact of remittance on the living standards of households. Many households were able to construct RCC buildings and buy land in which they were previously unable to construct due to financial constraints. There was also an improvement in household assets, electronic goods, and services after receiving remittances. Moreover, the results show that the health conditions of households had improved after receiving remittances. The findings indicate that remittance has a significant impact on the socioeconomic development of the study area, contributing to the improvement of the living standards and well-being of the households. Despite this, the government must ensure protection against labor exploitation and formulate appropriate policies for Nepalese laborers.
The Impact of the Induction Programme on New Teachers’ Retention Intention in Chitwan District Nepal
Authors: Adhikari Basanta Prasad , Adhakari Rajak Nilam
Published: January 2024

This study aimed to examine the impact of the key components of the induction programme on new teacher retention intention in Nepal. Specifically, it examined new teachers’ opinions, views, perceptions, and experiences of the induction programme’s key components and how they are related to gender and new teacher retention intention in the profession. This study used an integrated mixed methods approach with the simple random sampling method as a sampling strategy. In total, 250 new teachers were randomly selected from 15 private and 15 public schools in Chitwan district, Nepal. The response rate of the survey questionnaire was 84%. Eleven new teachers in total were selected to take part in the semi-structured interviews who also already participated in the survey study. The quantitative survey instrument was a self-administered Likert-type questionnaire which was developed based on the previous studies addressing the key components of the induction programme. Principal component analysis (PCA), Student’s t-test, Mann-Whitney U-test, and Binary Logistic Regression analysis were used to analyze quantitative data, and the inductive content analysis method was applied to interpret the qualitative interview data. The results showed that 72% of new teachers stated their retention intention in the profession, and 28% stated their turnover intention, which is less than the international attrition rate of 30-50 %. The quantitative results further indicated that highly task-oriented school principal management behaviour, collegial support to increase content knowledge, high expectations of teacher performance, and emphasis on effective teaching skills have a negative association with new teachers’ retention intention in the profession. Conversely, collegial support for instructional skills, recognizing and comfortable working atmosphere, and well-working observation mechanisms have a positive association with new teachers’ retention intention in the profession. The qualitative results supported the quantitative results’ low mean values, indicating new teachers’ dissatisfaction with Nepalese induction support programme. Overall, the qualitative data contributes to a more comprehensive and nuanced understanding of the association between the perceptions of new teachers regarding the key components of the induction programme and their retention intention in the profession and validates the interpretations of the quantitative results. The findings of this study would be beneficial to school leaders, policymakers, and practitioners in finding appropriate solutions to the problem of new teacher attrition.
An Educational Study Focused on the Application of Mixed Method Approach as a Research Method
Authors: Adhikari Ramesh , Timsina Tatwa Prasad
Published: January 2024

This paper introduces and analyses a mixed-methods approach and further analyses the strengths and limitations of the convergent parallel design in the educational research studies. Our study serves a valuable purpose in clear patterns, trends, and statistical association relevant to the impact of independent variables on dependent variables throughout the course of the study. Concurrently, this research design facilitates a holistic comprehension of the research problem by enabling a complicated examination from various perspectives. The analysis of this paper is based on books, articles, dissertations, and online papers where different research methods are applied in different studies. The analysis highlights that qualitative and quantitative data are collected simultaneously and independently in a convergent parallel mixed methods design. It is followed by integrating and comparing the two data types during the analysis and interpretation phase. The analysis further highlights that a quantitative survey could be administered to a larger population sample to collect numerical data based on the research questions and other relevant variables. The analysis also suggests that once the data collection is completed, the author should independently conduct separate analyses for the quantitative and qualitative data. The analysis signifies that quantitative analysis can cover descriptive statistics, inferential tests, and binary logistic regression analysis to analyze the quantitative data and identify significant associations between the independent and dependent variables. The qualitative data analysis method is content analysis to identify codes, key codes, subcategories, and main categories within the qualitative data. The analysis shows that during the integration phase, a comparative analysis has to be conducted between the quantitative and qualitative findings to identify convergence, divergence, and contrast points between the two data sets. The results highlight that a triangulation approach supports establishing a cohesive analysis, which involves exploring the interconnections and mutual reinforcement between the qualitative and quantitative outcomes in the same format with more clarity. The analysis of this integrated analytical effort is subsequently incorporated into the discussion section. The analysis further indicates that the convergent parallel design is one of the mixed methods designs. In this section, the author’s responsibility lies in elucidating the consequences and interpretations drawn from the integrated results, encompassing theoretical foundations and practical implications.

Authors: Bhandari Samir Raj
Published: January 2024

This comprehensive descriptive research explores deeply into the intricate domain of new product development within Nepal’s Chitwan district, examining its complicated process, stages, evolving trends, and consequential implications. With a robust participant pool of Four hundred and Four (N=404) individuals spanning diverse manufacturing and service-oriented entities, the study provides a panoramic view of the subject matter. The findings reveal a substantial consensus (85.9%) among respondents, declaring the significance of stages, trends, and strategies in new product development, underscoring their pervasive acknowledgement across the district. However, a notable subset (25%) displays partial implementation, particularly regarding concept development and testing, reflecting challenges in translating design phases into seamless product launches and market integration. Yet, a considerable segment (80.6%) displays alignment with product life cycles, new product development stages, trends, and strategies, signalling adaptability and steadfast commitment among Chitwan’s enterprises. With an average knowledge score of 5.38 out of 8, the research augments the requirements of theoretical knowledge to the decision makers. These insights resonate especially in urban settings, elucidating the interplay between new product development trends and their far-reaching implications for business competitiveness, consumer experiences, and societal advancement.

Plantas de cidro Etrog Arizona 861 (Citrus medica L.) fueron inoculadas con cortezas provenientes de árboles de campo presentando síntomas de enanismo y descortezado del portainjerto y de árboles asintomáticos. A los 3 y 4 meses expresaron reducción del crecimiento, epinastia en hojas, necrosis de nervaduras, puntuaciones en peciolo y síntomas de shock. El análisis de ácidos nucleicos mediante sPAGE, slot blot e hibridación molecular, permitió detectar la presencia de tres grupos de viroides, CVd-I, CVd-II y CVd-III comunicados por primera vez a nivel nacional, asociados al agente causal de la exocortis de los citrus (CEVd). Los viroides caracterizados fueron CVd-Ia, CV-IB, CVd-IIa, CVd-IIIa y CVd-IIIb. No se ha detectado la presencia del viroide perteneciente al grupo CVd-IV. Todas las fuentes de campo analizadas presentaron una mezcla del CEVd con viroides pertenecientes a los grupos CVd-I, CVd-II y CVd-III.
Transformasi Kadaster di Indonesia: Kepastian Hukum dalam Sejarah dan Tantangan Pendaftaran Tanah

Published: January 2024

ABSTRACT
The history of the cadastre in Indonesia encompasses the periods of Dutch East Indies colonial rule, Japanese occupation, and the post-independence era. The enactment of Law No. 5 of 1960 concerning the Basic Agrarian Law (UUPA), particularly Article 19, which defines the scope of cadastre, has brought about significant changes. Nonetheless, the core issue remains the ineffectiveness of cadastre mapping in providing legal certainty, even serving as a recurring source of land-related problems, including during the periods of Presidential Regulations (PP) 10/1961, PP 24/1997, and PTSL. This research aims to comprehend the concept and historical mission of cadastre in each village or sub-district periodically and to assess its impact on land-related cases. The research employs normative legal methods and qualitative approaches. Conceptual, historical, comparative, and case study approaches are employed to gain a deeper understanding. Moreover, philosophical approaches (fundamental, comprehensive, and speculative) and ontological, epistemological, and axiological aspects are also considered for further research. The findings unveil the complexity and dynamics involved in land registration and cadastre management in Indonesia. Changes in regulations, ontological, and epistemological approaches, along with efforts to establish comprehensive registration maps, constitute vital components in maintaining effective legal certainty and land management.
Keywords: cadastral history, Legal certainty, Land-related issues, Cadastral mapping, Land registration reform.
 
INTISARI
Sejarah kadaster di Indonesia meliputi era Pemerintahan Hindia Belanda, penjajahan Jepang, hingga era kemerdekaan. Berlakunya Undang-Undang nomor 5 tahun 1960 tentang UUPA, terutama Pasal 19 yang mengatur ruang lingkup kadaster, mengubah dinamika. Meski demikian, permasalahan inti adalah perpetaan kadaster yang kurang efektif dalam memberikan kepastian hukum, bahkan menjadi sumber berulangnya masalah pertanahan, termasuk di era PP 10/1961, PP 24/1997, dan PTSL. Penelitian ini bertujuan memahami konsep dan sejarah misi kadaster di setiap desa atau kelurahan secara periodik, serta membandingkan dampaknya pada kasus pertanahan. Metode hukum normatif dan pendekatan kualitatif digunakan. Pendekatan konseptual, sejarah, perbandingan, dan studi kasus diterapkan. Pendekatan filsafat (mendasar, menyeluruh, spekulatif) dan aspek ontologis, epistemologis, serta aksiologis juga dipertimbangkan untuk penelitian selanjutnya. Hasilnya mengungkapkan kompleksitas dan dinamika dalam penyelenggaraan pendaftaran tanah dan kadaster di Indonesia. Perubahan aturan, pendekatan ontologis dan epistemologis, serta upaya mewujudkan peta pendaftaran lengkap menjadi komponen penting dalam menjaga kepastian hukum dan pengelolaan pertanahan yang efektif.

Salah satu strategi utama untuk mendorong pengembangan industri di Kabupaten Kotawaringin Timur melibatkan implementasi kebijakan tata ruang melalui Rencana Detail Tata Ruang (RDTR) di Kawasan Alih Fungsi Industri Bagendang (KPI Bagendang). Meskipun RDTR KPI Bagendang telah diterbitkan pada tahun 2021, belum ada penelitian lanjutan yang dilakukan terkait dengan kesesuaian penggunaan lahan sebagaimana diatur dalam RDTR. Studi ini bertujuan menilai status penggunaan lahan di KPI Bagendang pada 2022, mengevaluasi kesesuaian dengan ketentuan RDTR KPI Bagendang, dan mengidentifikasi ketidaksesuaian di area tersebut. Metode penelitian deskriptif kualitatif digunakan dalam kerangka keruangan. RDTR KPI Bagendang mengalokasikan 1.358,32 hektar (35,89%) sebagai Kawasan Industri, tetapi yang dominan adalah perkebunan dengan 2.937,39 hektar (77,61%). Evaluasi menunjukkan 3.719,34 hektar (98,26%) sesuai pedoman RDTR, dan 65,68 hektar (1,74%) tidak sesuai. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa sebagian besar pemanfaatan ruang di KPI Bagendang sesuai rencana, namun ketidaksesuaian terutama dari struktur bangunan di tepi sungai, jalan, dan area yang semula untuk perkebunan.

Bread spring wheat is one of the most important crops, which leads to the development of effective approaches to its cultivation both in the field and in vitro. At the same time, wheat reproduction in vitro is associated with the stage of callus formation and its further regeneration. However, not all wheat varieties are capable of morphogenic callus formation and in vitro regeneration. In this work, 5 varieties of bread spring wheat were studied for regenerative ability: Iren 2, Happy, Novosibirskaya 16, Zlata, Daria, and the effect of lighting intensity on the activity of their organogenesis was estimated. To induce callus, synthetic auxin 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) was used in various concentrations: 0.5 mg/l for Murashige and Skoog nutrient medium (MS) with L7 salts (MSL7), as well as 2.5 mg/l for MS and MSL7 media. The ability to regenerate shoots in calli was analyzed on hormone-free nutrient media MS and L7, with various lighting options: 90 or 120 μmol/m2c. It was revealed that for the effective induction of morphogenic calluses from mature embryos of the varieties of bread spring wheat used by us, it is advisable to use the MSL7 nutrient medium in the presence of 0.5 or 2.5 mg/l 2.4-D. The most promising and having the greatest regenerative potential of the varieties studied by us are the varieties of bread spring wheat Iren 2 and Happy.

Despite the fact that RT-PCR remains the “gold standard” for diagnostics of SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, reverse transcription loop isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) is increasingly being used. It has certain advantages due to the isothermal nature of the process and the relative simplicity of lamplicons detection. This allows this reaction to be positioned as point-of-care testing, including in relation to the detection of SARS-CoV-2. Methods for the results detection of any type of LAMP can be divided into specific (direct), designed to use hybridization probes, and indirect, in which the total accumulation of lamplicons or reaction by-products (pyrophosphate and protons) is controlled. For the detection of SARS-CoV-2 genetic material in clinical samples using RT-LAMP, a large number of options have been proposed, based on different detection methods. It is important to ensure high specificity of any LAMP variants, which depends on the quality of primer selection carried out using computer programs.
DA INCONSTITUCIONALIDADE À INCONVENCIONALIDADE DO PROJETO DE DECRETO PARA A DENÚNCIA DA CONVENÇÃO N. 169 DA OIT SOBRE OS POVOS INDÍGENAS E TRIBAIS

A Convenção 169 da OIT Sobre os Povos Indígenas e Tribais, de 1989, ratificada pelo Brasil em 2002, é um relevante marco normativo e o instrumento jurídico internacional mais importante na proteção dos povos indígenas. Com a previsão de instrumentos protetivos inovadores, o tratado rompe com a noção assimilacionista e integracionista do documento que lhe antecedeu e avança na salvaguarda dos direitos indígenas, em âmbito internacional. Porém, apesar de sua relevância, foi proposto, na Câmara dos Deputados, em 2021, o Projeto de Decreto Legislativo 177, que objetiva previamente autorizar o Presidente da República à denunciar a Convenção. Portanto, este trabalho, tendo o Projeto como ponto de partida, busca evidenciar que propostas normativas com fins análogos, isto é, de exaurimento dos direitos humanos de povos indígenas, além de inconstitucionais, são inconvencionais e contrárias ao sistema interamericano de proteção dos direitos humanos. Para tanto se confrontará o teor do Projeto com os standards protetivos dos direitos humanos dos povos indígenas, estabelecidos pela jurisprudência da Corte IDH nas sentenças do Caso Povo Xucuru vs. Brasil e Caso do Povo Saramaka vs. Suriname, os quais formam, regionalmente, uma verdadeira barreira de contenção contra violações e esgotamentos de direitos humanos. Espera-se que a investigação traga contribuições importantes no estudo da questão indígena no Brasil, sobretudo sob o enfoque dos recorrentes ataques sofridos pelos direitos dos povos indígenas, nos mais diversos âmbitos, ao longo das últimas décadas. O método usado é qualitativo quanto à abordagem, exploratório e descritivo, quanto ao objetivo, e bibliográfico quanto ao procedimento.
