Published: May 2023

The 1945 Constitution is the highest law in Indonesia. From 1999 to 2002, the MPR underwent four stages of change which were carried out democratically, constitutionally and institutionally. Arrangements that have undergone changes include Article 18 concerning arrangements for the administration of regional government. The implementation of the provisions of Article 18 of the 1945 Republic of Indonesia Constitution is currently carried out by Law Number 23 of 2014 concerning Regional Government as the basis for political reference for regional autonomy law in Indonesia. The problems in this study are how is the implementation of regional autonomy in Indonesia, what is the impact of regional autonomy on the development of Indonesia's regions, and how are changes in the culture of society in the implementation of regional autonomy in Indonesia. The conclusion that can be drawn from these results is that the implementation of regional autonomy in Indonesia must have a sense of confidence from the central government, local government and the community, with decentralization which is expected to optimize community pre- cons, the impact of regional autonomy opens up opportunities to implement wide-open economic democracy, and so that it can advance the people's economy, as a result of the reform euphoria that can lead to counter-productivity. This must become a productive and constructive culture and behavior to realize healthy and balanced regional autonomy.

Porang nowadays has become a commodity that is claimed to have high export potential because it is the basic ingredient for making sirataki, a healthy food that is currently trending. In the market, Sirataki has a high price, so many people assume that the price of porang as a raw material is also high. But unfortunately this contrasts with the reality experienced by the farmers in Ngrayun Village, Ponorogo. Where the price of porang among farmers actually experienced a very drastic price drop. Therefore this study aims to identify the factors that cause this phenomenon to occur, that by helping Porang farmers in the village of Ngrayun Ponorogo the results are: 1.) Limited knowledge of farmers about supply chain management, 2.) Limited to human resources who lack knowledge planting Porang, and 3.) Dependence of farmers on collectors.

Nas margens de uma cidade sem deus: da reificação ao reconhecimento em Cidade de Deus de Paulo Lins – uma interlocução entre Literatura e Direito
Authors:   , Raposo Rafael Ramos
Published: May 2023

O presente trabalho realiza um estudo sobre a narrativa ficcional Cidade de Deus, do escritor brasileiro contemporâneo Paulo Lins, assumindo o pressuposto de que este é um texto significativo para reflexões sobre as relações entre a Literatura e o Direito, principalmente, no que concerne ao fato desta ficção representar com ímpeto situações e problemas que concernem ao tema direito das minorias na sociedade brasileira contemporânea. Por intermédio de um diálogo interdisciplinar, que parte da análise da obra literária, evidencia-se como o embate social e o enfrentamento às relações de poder, pode culminar no reconhecimento das chamadas minorias sociais enquanto membros de uma sociedade, dotados de noções como pertencimento e cidadania. O estudo tem como principal amparo os conceitos de Reconhecimento e Reificação propostos pelo filósofo alemão Axel Honneth, e é construído com base em uma abordagem teórico-crítica do romance escolhido como elemento central do corpus, bem como de textos que elucidam conceitos e conteúdos relacionados à proposta nos âmbitos da teoria da literatura, das ciências jurídicas e sociológicas. Em uma perspectiva dialógica, o trabalho contrasta as representações sociais evidenciadas no romance com a conjuntura das minorias enquanto sujeitos de direito no contexto jurídico brasileiro. A partir da leitura da obra de Paulo Lins, promovemos uma reflexão acerca de como se dá o reconhecimento das minorias no âmbito do Direito, tendo como base o texto constitucional e outros textos com enfoque na temática "direito das minorias". Analisamos os personagens de Cidade de Deus como figuras que representam a reificação do sujeito na vida social. Palavras-chave: Literatura. Direito. Reconhecimento. Reificação. Minorias. Paulo Lins.
Investigating Rural Pre-Service Teachers' Mathematics Anxiety Using the Revised Mathematics Anxiety Scale (RMARS)
Authors: Wilson Sue
Published: May 2023

Engaging successfully in the modern technological society requires a command of mathematics. Hence, successfully engaging with mathematics has social, economic and political implications. There has been a history over a long period of time of significant numbers of people not forming productive relationships with learning mathematics. Failure in mathematics can have an impact that may extend far beyond the classroom. Mathematics anxiety leads to avoidance of mathematics, limiting opportunities for people to reach their full potential.
Mathematics anxiety is an important research topic in the mathematics education community. Significant numbers of students come to their tertiary teacher education with limited mathematics understandings, and a pattern of avoidance and anxiety. International researchers of primary pre-service teachers report high levels of mathematics anxiety, low confidence levels to teach mathematics and low mathematics teacher efficacy. Pre-service primary teachers‘ mathematics anxiety affects their engagement with and future teaching of mathematics, as high levels of teacher mathematics anxiety can be perpetuated in classrooms (Martinez, 1987, Furner & Berman, 2005).
The project investigated the range of mathematics anxiety in a sample of pre-service teachers (PST) starting a teacher education course in an Australian university. 219 first year primary PST enrolled in the Bachelor of Education (Primary) degree course from two campuses completed the survey in the first few weeks of the first semester of their university course. PST responded to the Revised Mathematics Anxiety Scale (RMARS) (Alexander & Martray, 1989) and a set of demographic questions. Sample 1 was from a campus in a regional city and Sample 2 from a metropolitan campus. Age differences in anxiety were found to be significant, and relationships were found between the RMARS scores and students‘ self-perceptions of their current mathematics anxiety levels. Pre-service teachers who had attended rural high schools demonstrated a range of levels of mathematics anxiety. This research showed that these anxieties may present differently when taking a mathematics test, doing mathematical computations, or undertaking a mathematics course. Teacher educators should be aware of the extent of range of anxiety that PST may present with at the beginning of their teacher education course, and hence that the needs of students coming to their teacher education mathematics units may vary considerably.
Exploring Cultural Horizons

The need for Australian school students to develop a strong understanding of Asian culture has been recognised in the cross-curriculum priority, Asia and Australia's Engagement with Asia, of the Australian Curriculum. School students in rural and remote Australia have limited opportunities to engage with Asians and learn about their culture. The Australia-Korea ConneXion (AKC) Program digitally connects Australian and Korean schools to develop cultural exchange. In particular, lessons incorporating videoconferencing enable interactions that enhance the cultural values and attitudes of the students involved. While recognising the potential of videoconferencing to enrich their students‘ experiences of other cultures, teachers in rural and remote schools may not feel confident in the practicalities of incorporating videoconferencing into lessons to connect their students with students in other countries. This paper aims to inform teachers on the analysis of AKC Program lessons utilising videoconferencing. Although there is a cultural focus, each pair of teachers has flexibility in the choice of lesson content. Guidance is provided for teachers who might want to begin videoconferencing with classes in another country, including steps from making first contact with the teacher to planning the learning, setting up the technology and finally facilitating the lessons. As part of research evaluating this program, a rubric was developed to code the quality of a videoconferencing lesson. Analysis of data from lessons between four pairs of schools provides insight into the videoconferencing lessons and a range of pedagogical and technological advice to assist teachers to improve the quality of their future use of videoconferencing to connect students and allow them to explore new cultural horizons.

This paper discusses an initiative titled UniReady Program for Multicultural Groups that was conducted at the University of South Australia‘s Centre for Regional Engagement located in the city of Whyalla. Immigrant families are currently being attracted to the city due to regional employment opportunities and are potential university students. The aim of the program is to attract these non-traditional students into higher education. The program explores the opportunities available for community members from diverse backgrounds to study at the regional university campus. The pilot session introduced the participants to university study, pathways into university, the degrees available, and assisted them in planning their future at the campus. The Harvard Questionnaire was administered to evaluate this new initiative.
Eighteen community members participated in the inaugural program. The paper draws on the experiences of the immigrants and staff members who contributed to the program. For the participants, what was beneficial was learning about how to gain entry to university as well as clarifying the wide variety of support available to assist students become successful learners. For the staff, it was determining the barriers of taking up university for the immigrants and following through their expressed interest in undertaking university studies.
Reasons and Motivations of School Leaders who Apply for Rural, Regional and Remote Locations in Australia
Authors: Halsey R. John , Drummond Aaron
Published: May 2023

Evidence suggests that there are significant difficulties associated with the attraction and retention of appropriately qualified, high quality teachers and educational leaders (e.g., principals) for rural1, regional and remote locations in Australia. Further, educational leadership in these areas carries complex demands, and educational leaders are often under prepared for the work and demands expected of them. Why then, do educational leaders apply for R3 positions? Herein, we use qualitative reports from 426 school leaders employed in rural Australia for an average length of 10.6 years (SD = 7.3 years) and frequency data to identify the most common reasons and motivations for applying to work as an educational leader in a R3 context. Given the leaders’ length of R3 employment, we argue that examining their reasons and motivations for applying can assist in understanding how to enhance the recruitment of educational leaders for rural, regional and remote areas. Further, by examining reasons and motivations, policy makers and administrators may benefit from the findings of this research about why educational leaders choose to work in country areas.

This study aims atexpressing the difficulties that the media have in the spelling of the Albanian language. More precisely, the written media, that is, the newspapers that are published in physical form and those that are only found in the online version. The unified orthography of a language, in our case of the Albanian language, is a term of the crystallization of the national literary norm in all the main chains of the phonetic, word formation,grammatical, and lexical structure. It reflects the current state and general trends of the development of our literary language. Today's orthography aims for further unification of the national literary language norm on the basis of the common forms that have been adopted and are being adopted by it. Given that the basic principle of Albanian orthography is the phonetic principle followed by the grammatical one, and seeing the constant spelling errors of the speakers and those who write in the Albanian language, weexamined a daily newspaper, which has many readers and has a huge impact on Albanian speakers.In order to see the most frequent spelling errors, we will outline and analyze the wrong cases and give the correct forms based on the Albanian standard. Thus, from the results that will be brought, we will see the greatest difficulties faced by journalists of this daily newspaper, as well as their challenges on using the correct forms.
Transport chains in the time of the Egyptian Pharaohs: a still unknown organizational efficiency
Authors: Paché Gilles
Published: May 2023

The Egypt of the Pharaohs has been the subject of a huge deal of research by historians, archaeologists, and engineering specialists over the past decades. The construction of immense pyramids is largely the focus of attention insofar as it bears witness to the human genius capable of erecting monuments that have survived the millennia. The question of the logistics management involved in these majestic constructions is still little known, or at least rarely addressed. It is however undeniable that without a perfect organization of transport chains, the construction of the pyramids could not have been achieved. This article uses the example of the Great Pyramid of Giza to illustrate this point, the importance of which must be recognized by researchers specializing in management science.

The theoretical basis of internal communication as an active process of information exchange
Authors: Zdravkovska Suzana , Haque Sabir
Published: May 2023

Communication is a broadly exploited concept or, more precisely, a social phenomenon for which in contemporary science there are various discursive approaches. But, regardless of the access discourse, in each of them, communication confirms the unconditionality of its existence as a prerequisite for the functioning of man as a being, and of society as a system. The approach used in this paper supports the thesis that information is the basis of communication, and hence communication is an active process of information exchange, the process of creating and exchanging messages within a network with mutually dependent relations. Referring to the theoretical aspects of communication as a process for information exchange, this paper puts special emphasis on internal communication and its essential importance for development, management and efficient functioning of an organization. The research done by analyzing different theoretical approaches to communication confirms the initial research hypothesis that communication and information are pair categories that inevitably go side by side, and exchange of information as a part of the communication process is of increasing importance, especially in the conditions when it brings and gives knowledge that corresponds to the needs of a particular individual, group or organization. Hence, well-established rules of internal communication from the aspect of information exchange have priority and are set as a condition for the successful functioning of an organization.

Assessing Grit of Emerging Adult Diocesan Seminarians in Negros Island
Authors: Abaño John Dave , Chris John Bedoria
Published: May 2023

Grit plays a crucial role in the development of emerging adult seminarians as they undergo a rigorous process in preparation for a lifelong commitment to God and the Church. It entails a combination of persistence and passion, driving individuals to pursue their long-term goals despite facing challenges and obstacles. This study aimed to assess the extent of grit in emerging adult seminarians in four diocesan seminaries in Negros Island, particularly in terms of perseverance and consistency, and its relationship with their birth order, family structure, and income. Utilizing descriptive-correlational design, 142 emerging adult seminarians in four diocesan seminaries in negros island answered the 12-item Grit scale. The study findings indicate that the respondents, as emerging adult seminarians, possess average grit. Specifically, they demonstrate higher scores in the perseverance of effort compared to the consistency of interest. Further, the demographics such as birth order, family structure, and family income were found to have no significant correlations with grit. The results suggest that while the seminarians have the drive to endure setbacks, they may struggle with maintaining consistent choices over time. The findings also highlight that the development of grit is a personal journey, independent of factors like birth order, family structure, or family income.

Published: May 2023

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the school culture-based Character Education Strengthening (PPK) program at SMP Negeri 10 Satap Tondano. This research uses a qualitative approach. Data collection in this study was carried out using in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation studies. The results of this study show that the implementation of the school culture-based Character Education Strengthening Program (PPK) at SMP Negeri 10 Satap Tondano has not been implemented optimally due to: 1) the availability of inadequate school facilities and infrastructure to support extracurricular and co-curricular activities which are mandatory components in the implementation of school culture-based KDP,  2) parental support for the child's education process that is still lacking, and 3) inadequate school financing in financing the implementation of activities and the procurement of school facilities and infrastructure. For this reason, we should: 1) schools need to coordinate with all stakeholders in the field of education, 2) the government needs to provide sufficient funds to support the implementation of school-based KDP, 3) need maximum support from parents in the form of attention and supervision of children's associations.

Published: May 2023

Objective: Exposure to stressful events is associated with the progression of white matter hyperintensity (WMH). The purpose of this study was to determine the difference in WMH depending on the presence of Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Methods: The patients who underwent brain magnetic resonance imaging and clinician-administered PTSD scale (CAPS) at the Veteran Health Service Medical Center were reviewed retrospectively. WMH were evaluated using the Fazekas scale. The patients with PTSD (n=51; age 66.25±10.43 years) were compared with patients exposed to trauma without PTSD (n=67; age 69.45±10.44 years).
Results: The scores of Beck Depression Scale, Beck Anxiety scale, and CAPS were significantly higher in the PTSD group. The PTSD group showed a significant difference on the Fazekas scale compared to the trauma-exposed group without PTSD (periventricular white matter, p=0.001; deep white matter, p=0.008). After adjusting for age, smoking and comorbidity, WMH was higher in the PTSD group than in the trauma exposed group (periventricular white matter, p<0.001; deep white matter, p=0.006).
Conclusion: The results suggests that there may be an association between PTSD and WMH as well as stressful events

Published: May 2023

Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate the association of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) e4 genotype with cognition, brain volume, glucose metabolism, and amyloid deposition in patients with Alzheimer disease (AD).
Methods: This is cross-sectional study of 69 subjects with AD. All subjects were divided into carriers and non-carriers of the e4 allele. Forty APOE e4 carriers and 29 APOE e4 non-carriers underwent neuropsychological, structural magnetic resonance imaging, [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography scans (PET) and [18F]florbetaben amyloid PET. Analysis of covariance was conducted to compare the differences on cognition, brain volume, glucose metabolism and amyloid deposition between APOE e4 carriers and non-carriers after controlling demographics.
Results: APOE e4 carriers had 50% lower scores of Seoul Verbal Learning Test (delayed recall) compared to non-carriers (0.88±1.65 vs. 1.76±1.75, p<0.05). However, APOE e4 carriers performed better on other cognitive tests than non-carriers (Korean version of Boston Naming Test [11.04±2.55 vs. 9.66±2.82, p<0.05], Rey Complex Figure Test [25.73±8.56 vs. 20.15±10.82, p<0.05], and Stroop test [color response] [48.28±26.33 vs. 31.56±27.03, p<0.05]). APOE e4 carriers had slightly smaller hippocampal volume than non-carriers (3.09±0.38 vs. 3.32±0.38, p<0.05), but greater total brain cortical thickness (1.45±1.55 vs. 1.37±1.24, p<0.05). Amyloid deposition did not differ significantly between APOE e4 carriers and non-carriers, and no significant difference in glucose metabolism was found between groups.
Conclusion: We found that APOE e4 genotype is associated with cognition, brain volume in AD, suggesting that APOE e4 genotype could play an important role in the underlying pathogenesis of AD.

Published: May 2023

Objective: Cognitive impairment has been an area of interest for psychiatrists. Not only do patients with dementia exhibit symptoms associated with cognitive impairment, but those with some mental disorders such as psychotic and mood disorders as well. However, differences in cognitive impairment between these disorders remain unclear. In this study, we used the Korean Mini-Mental State Examination (K-MMSE), a tool that can be easily administered to patients, to compare cognitive impairment profiles among patients with dementia, psychotic disorders, and mood disorders.
Methods: We collected demographic and clinical characteristics of 59 patients who were over 50 years old. Cognitive function was assessed using the K-MMSE. Patients were divided into three groups based on International Classification of Diseases 10th revision diagnosis codes: 1) F00-F01 Dementia, 2) F20-F29 Psychotic disorders, and 3) F30-F39 Mood disorders. We compared K-MMSE subscale scores between the three groups using one-way analysis of variance.
Results: The three groups did not differ in demographic data. The dementia group showed the lowest scores in orientation to time (standard deviation [SD]=1.45, F=3.233, p<0.05) and place (SD=1.25, F=3.388, p<0.05), as well as registration (SD=1.00, F=4.425, p<0.05) and recall (SD=0.91, F=3.364, p<0.05) of memory compared to the groups with psychotic and mood disorders. The psychotic disorder group showed significant impairment in language (SD=1.34, F=3.348, p<0.05) compared to the other groups. No significant differences were observed in calculation and drawing.
Conclusion: This study suggests that certain K-MMSE subscale scores could indicate an illness that causes cognitive impairment, especially in dementia, psychotic disorders, and mood disorders. By using K-MMSE profiles, we could provide better interventions for patients with cognitive impairment.

Hỗn hợp Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) là một loại bê tông asphalt tính năng cao được sử dụng cho những kết cấu mặt đường thường xuyên chịu tải trọng xe nặng hay mặt đường sân bay. Do SMA có cấu trúc tiếp xúc đá chèn đá và thành phần thường sử dụng phụ gia ổn định nên sức kháng hằn lún vệt bánh xe của hỗn hợp tăng lên. Có nhiều loại phụ gia được sử dụng cho hỗn hợp SMA và theo nhiều cách khác nhau, mỗi loại phụ gia sẽ có các tính năng ngắn hạn cũng như tính năng dài hạn khác nhau. Bài báo này đưa ra kết quả thực nghiệm đánh giá đặc tính kháng nứt của hỗn hợp SMA sử dụng phụ gia gốc copolymer styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) có tên thương mại là Rubber Modified Compound (RMC). Hai hỗn hợp đối chứng so sánh với hỗn hợp SMA sử dụng phụ gia RMC là hỗn hợp bê tông asphalt chặt và hỗn hợp SMA đều sử dụng bitum PMB III. Đặc tính kháng nứt được đánh giá bởi năng lượng phá hủy nứt (Gf), độ dốc đường cong quan hệ lực-chuyển vị sau phá hủy (|m75|), chỉ số kháng nứt (Cracking Tolerance Index - CTIndex) của thí nghiệm kéo gián tiếp. Kết quả thực nghiệm cho thấy rằng, hỗn hợp SMA sử dụng phụ gia RMC có đặc tính kháng nứt cao hơn so với hỗn hợp bê tông asphalt chặt, nhưng thấp hơn so với hỗn hợp SMA sử dụng bitum PMB III

Cốt liệu mỏ đá Sunway-Quốc Oai đã được biết đến và sử dụng rộng rãi cho bê tông nhựa polymer ở Việt Nam. Việc đánh giá sự khác biệt cũng như hiệu quả sử dụng các loại cốt liệu đá khác thay thế cho đá Sunway là cần thiết, đặc biệt là giúp hiểu rõ hơn về đặc tính thành phần hóa học và đặc tính cơ lý của cốt liệu cũng như của hỗn hợp bê tông nhựa. Bài báo tiến hành nghiên cứu thực nghiệm, chỉ ra khả năng sử dụng cốt liệu đá ở mỏ Khau Đêm-Lạng Sơn thay thế cho cốt liệu đá ở mỏ Sunway-Quốc Oai truyền thống cho sản xuất hỗn hợp bê tông nhựa polymer phụ gia Copolymer SBS. Thành phần khoáng vật của hai mẫu đá Khau Đêm và Sunway có sự tương đồng cao, đều là loại đá mácma có tính bazơ mạnh, với hàm lượng SiO2 tương ứng 43,17% và 45,24% sau khi được phân tích bằng phương pháp phổ tán sắc năng lượng tia X (XRF). BTNP12,5-Sunway và BTNP12,5-Khau Đêm qua kết quả thí nghiệm và phân tích thống kê cho thấy sự tương đương nhau về các chỉ tiêu Marshall và khả năng kháng hằn vệt bánh xe. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy mức độ phù hợp cao của một số loại đá mácma sử dụng cho hỗn hợp bê tông nhựa polymer ở Việt Nam

How to consolidate the results of poverty alleviation and establish a long-term governance mechanism for relative poverty is a major project of steady moves toward common prosperity. Based on the analysis framework of Social-Ecological Systems (SES) , this article builds a rural social ecosystem framework on poverty alleviation in the area under the context of resource constraints, uses this framework to develop a dynamic exploration and diagnosis on the poverty governance process before and after the rural collective economy is developed and expanded, and analyzes the effect of governing poverty in the development and expansion of the collective economy in rural areas. Research finding shows that: (1) The development and expansion of the rural collective economy can help to improve the ability of poverty alleviation and re-poverty prevention, to establish a long-term mechanism to achieve common prosperity, and to promote the material benefits of the villagers with more fair public resources, remitting the polarization. (2) The development and expansion of the collective economy of the rural collective economy have a positive role in regulating the poverty effected by resource constraints. The development of the rural collective economy can promote the integration of village resources and develop new resources, and improve the resource structure and resource use in poverty alleviation villages, improving the ability in poverty alleviation. Related conclusions will be helpful in providing theoretical reference and practical revelation to the Chinese-style. modernization of common prosperity and enhancing the relative poverty governance capabilities in poverty alleviation.
Analysis of the Effect of Local Foundation Scouring on the Structural Dynamic Effect of a Cable-Stayed Bridge Across The Sea

The foundation scour reduces the restraining effect of the foundation on the bridge foundation, resulting in the reduction of the lateral bearing capacity of the bridge foundation. For the cross-sea bridge, the dynamic effect of foundation scour on the bridge structure is more significant, thus affecting the safety of the structure. In this paper, the maximum possible local scouring depth of the foundation is first calculated to make the simulated foundation scouring condition conform. to the actual project. Then, the m-method is adopted to calculate the stiffness value of the foundation soil spring and establish an elastic restraint model that reflects the restraint of the foundation soil on the bridge foundation, thus setting up the finite element model of the bridge with regard to the foundation scouring. On this basis, taking Qiongzhou Strait cross-sea highway and railway dual-purpose cable-stayed bridge as an example, the effect of foundation scour on the dynamic effect of cross-sea cable-stayed bridges under the action of wind and waves is analyzed, and the influence law of the local scour depth of the foundation on the dynamic effect of the structure is determined. The maximum scour depth of 12m is considered to increase the displacement of the top of the tower by 14. 65%, mainly because the foundation scours reduces the restraint effect of the foundation soil on the bridge foundation, resulting in the reduction of the lateral bearing capacity of the bridge foundation. Therefore, for the cross-sea cable-stayed bridge without foundation soil treatment, the detection and monitoring of foundation scour should be strengthened or the preventive maintenance and reinforcement treatment of foundation soil should be done in advance to ensure the safe operation of the bridge structure.
