Published: June 2024

As online distance learning continues to gain popularity, it becomes increasingly essential to gain insights into the distinctive motivations and preferences of adult learners. These insights are critical for the development of effective and engaging educational programs. This article conducts an examination of the motivations and preferences of adult learners, highlighting how program designers can tailor their approaches to enhance the educational experience. The study adopts a mixed methods research design, drawing upon both quantitative and qualitative data collected from a participant group consisting of 1582 students affiliated with the Institute of Continuing Education & Professional Studies (iCEPS). Among these participants, 72.3% endorse the concept of a fully online distance program (ODL), while 21.4% express a preference for a blended program, and 6.3% express a strong inclination toward exclusively face-to-face learning. When delving into the motivations behind the ODL program, the respondents emphasise certain factors. The most prominent of these is the effectiveness of cost reduction in education, garnering a substantial score of 57.4%. Additionally, 51% of participants prioritize time efficiency, encompassing reduced commute times and the flexibility to utilize various devices for learning. In contrast, the two aspects that receive comparatively lower scores are student satisfaction through ODL (37.6%) and the efficiency of data presentation (35.8%). Qualitative content analysis unearths dissatisfactions within the realm of ODL, attributed to factors such as social isolation, limited adaptability for dynamic interaction, challenges related to technological infrastructure and access, as well as perplexities associated with assessment methods in the ODL context. To address these learning preferences and enhance the overall satisfaction of students engaged in ODL, educational institutions and policymakers are encouraged to contemplate a range of support measures. These measures encompass ensuring equitable access to technology, providing comprehensive academic and student support services, crafting responsive course materials, and fostering a sense of community and engagement among learners.

Published: June 2024

The absence of human face-to-face communication during the COVID-19 pandemic has raised the concern of online learning motivation among students due to the sudden emergency remote teaching and learning in Malaysia. The three aspects of learning motivation that are often studied in the field of education are value, expectancy, and affective components. Hence, this paper presents the relationship between the three variables for online learning motivation among undergraduates during the emergency remote teaching and learning period. A set of questionnaires comprising three sections and 24 items was employed in this quantitative study. The survey was conducted online to 151 respondents from a Malaysian public university, and the data collected were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings indicated that online students provided positive responses for all the three components of online learning motivation: namely, value, expectancy, and affective. Meanwhile, correlations tests yielded a strong positive relationship between value and expectancy components and a weak positive relationship between value and affective components. This paper also discusses pedagogical implications and future research of the study.

Authors: Mohamad Syamsul Nor Azlan , Nazlan Nadia Hanin
Published: June 2024

In the rapidly changing landscape of higher education, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as an instrument with the potential to transform traditional pedagogical methodologies, particularly in the context of academic assessments. While the incorporation of AI can improve the objectivity, scalability, and personalization of assessments, it also raises challenges and concerns that require a thorough investigation. This study provides an empirical analysis of the status of AI integration within higher education assessment. A survey of academically diverse educators from various institutions of higher education was conducted to examine four dimensions: 1) the pace and methods of AI adoption in assessments; 2) ethical concerns tied to fairness, bias, and data privacy; 3) educators’ digital competence in effectively utilizing AI tools; and 4) educators’ overall receptivity and openness towards the prospect of further AI advancements in assessment. Preliminary findings indicate a growing interest in AI-based educational tools, along with a demand for rigorous training and ethical standards for their equitable application. In addition to shedding light on the educational incorporation of AI, this study lays the groundwork for future research, policies, and best practices. As higher education teeters on a technological precipice, it becomes increasingly important to comprehend educators’ AI perspectives. This research aims to enrich global discourse by employing AI’s potential in higher education responsibly and creatively.
THE UNFINISHED “KHACHATUR ABOVYAN” NOVEL BY AKSEL BAKUNTS
Authors: DOLUKHANYAN AELITA
Published: June 2024

The idea of the “Khachatur Abovyan” novel occupied Aksel Bakunts’s mind for several years leading him to studiously examine the writings of the great educator, as well as to research the archival materials about Abovyan’s life.
Numerous remarkable literary critics, including Edvard Jrbashyan, Suren Aghababyan, and Hrant Tamrazyan, have analyzed the novel “Khachatur Abovyan.”  They have all considered it a historical novel (Tamrazyan H., 1984).
This unfinished novel reflects the joint evaluation of Bakunts and Charents regarding
the tragic issues and barriers that Abovyan had to fight for bringing his vision to life, as noted by Suren Aghababyan (Nalbandian V., 1978).
Yeghishe Charents tremendously admired the “Khachatur Abovyan” novel.  On one occasion, he told Ruben Zaryan, “Wait, wait a bit more, and then you will see what our friend will accomplish.” (Aghababyan S., 1986).
Bakunts succeeded in bringing to life the period of Abovyan’s life when he was studying in Dorpat (present-day Tartu in Estonia), vividly describing Abovyan’s university environment and longing for his distant homeland.
The novel “Khachatur Abovyan” has accurately represented the changes in the life of Eastern Armenia after it joined Russia.  Had the novel “Khachatur Abovyan” been completed, it would have greatly enriched the modern Armenian literary heritage and would have been considered a masterpiece created by Aksel Bakunts.
SELF-DEFENSE IN 1904 ON THE PAGES OF THE MAGAZINE “DROSHAK”
Authors: HOVSEPYAN KARINE
Published: June 2024

The self-defense of Sassoon in 1904 occupies a unique place in the Western Armenian national-liberation struggle.
This is one of the unique episodes of the liberation struggle, when the struggle had united, both to all the Hayduks and to the national parties: Hnchakyan, Dashnaktsutyun, despite their obvious differences. The struggle is presented in the article according to "Droshak", which reflected the events of those years with the greatest accuracy, because his information was supplemented by the direct participants of that struggle and with letters from leading figures, which were written in the mess of events under new impressions. This fact has great importance, as the memoirs of the liberation figures were written years after the events and many details are left out . “Droshak"comes to fill that gap.
In article is discussed the well-prepared siege of Sassoon by the Turkish government, which presented for many years as a revolt, rather than self-defense. Besides the Turkish government, that point of view was also advanced by the tsarist authorities. However, the fact that rebellions took place in Sassoon in 1894 and 1904 is a falsification of historical events and the birthplace of that falsehood was ottoman court Yltzn. The purpose of the forgery Sassoon's responsibility for the epic events put on the Armenians (Poghosyan S. 1989).

Published: June 2024

Seven years ago I had the privilege to found the Italian Journal of Public Health. I did so on the ground that in Italy we needed a Journal, written in English, to disseminate scientific knowledge relating all the aspects of public health. The aims I had in mind were to: • encourage research and promote knowledge relating to the problems, needs and development of public health • to promote and provide a forum for the regular exchange of views and information • to promote the development and education of public health workers • to involve anyone interested in public health activities and programmes. Seven years later, I am finally handing over this task to my successor, professor Giuseppe La Torre. I could not wish for a more worthy successor. Giuseppe is one of Italy’s leading public health researchers. He has contributed greatly to our understanding of the impact of epidemiology in Public Health Technology Assessment and he shares my commitment to the added value of comparative research, taking advantage of the rich diversity of health and health policy that exists in Italy and Europe. I will not, however, be escaping entirely as I have agreed to stay on as Founding Editor and I look forward to continuing to work with Giuseppe and with my colleagues who have done so much to support me over the past seven years, Stefania Boccia, Roberto Bucci, Roberta Siliquini, Pietro Folino Gallo, Laura Murianni, Patrizia Laurenti and Wendy Morotti and Claudia Corsetti, from the editorial team, Maria Teresa Pesenti, who produces the journal and Pietro Bruschi at Prex.

Authors: Statharou Angeliki , Galatou Crysodimitra , Pergadas Evangelos
Published: June 2024

Introduction: Ketamine was used for the first time in 1962 in Veterinary Medicine as an anesthetic and analgesic drug. For decades it was used as a narcotic substance, more widely known as “Special K”, i.e. a recreational drug. In recent years, the scientific community has focused on its remarkable and immediate therapeutic effect on depressed patients, who showed a remission of symptoms in a short period of time compared to antidepressant drugs. Purpose: The effectiveness of ketamine in psychiatric pharmaceutical therapy is investigated, even with the co-administration with other antidepressants. Methodology: The work is a literature review. The international literature was searched using the following keywords: psychiatric therapeutics, resistant depression, ketamine, esketamine. Results: In the treatment of major depression, the forms of ketamine administered are intravenous and inhaled. Intravenous is done with repeated injections at intervals to maintain the therapeutic effect and esketamine, the nasal spray, in the same way and for the same reason. Both forms have contraindications and side effects during their administration. The therapeutic benefit to the patient is weighed. Its effectiveness in psychiatric treatment has now been proven worldwide, mainly in mood disorders and in various pain conditions. Conclusions: Ketamine was used as an anesthetic in wars and surgeries. Its analgesic properties led to its use as a recreational drug. Today, it is a promising treatment for major depressive disorder, a disease that is a leading cause of disability worldwide. Its rapid action can also contribute to the prevention of suicide.

Published: June 2024

Objetivo: Avaliar a autopercepção e práticas de prevenção sobre a COVID-19 em um município do estado do Pará. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo epidemiológico transversal e prospectivo, com uma amostra de 120 suspeitos de infecção pelo referido vírus. Resultados: Destes, 64,17% apresentaram diagnóstico “detectável” para a presença do SARS-CoV-2 e os demais 35,83% apresentaram resultado “não detectável”. A bioestatística analítica foi utilizada para os testes com duas amostras independentes: Qui-Quadrado, Exato de Fisher e G. Conclusão: Quanto ao conhecimento sobre a COVID-19, duas hipóteses de associação com o resultado laboratorial foram aceitas: a autopercepção do atual estado de saúde e se o participante fazia parte do grupo de risco para a COVID-19. Já quanto a autopercepção e práticas de prevenção sobre a COVID-19, encontrou-se uma das associações mais significantes: participantes com diagnóstico laboratorial “detectável” encurtam o espaço de tempo com que fazem as lavagens das mãos com água e sabão. Também, baixar a máscara “as vezes” diante das pessoas contribui consideravelmente para o aumento da proporção entre os com resultado “detectável” para o SARS-CoV-2.
Uncovering the Compulsion Behind Pica: A Case of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Geophagia: A Case Report
Authors: Sidhu Manpreet Kaur , Ghosh Soumitra , Bora Kavery , Mondal Aritra
Published: June 2024

The extended ingestion of nonfood substances like paper, ice, clay or soil – which is prohibited in some cultures – is known as pica. Pica – so named because of the magpie, which is known for consuming nonfood objects. Aristotle called this consumption of earthly things “Geophagia.” A 15-year-old displayed an obsession with consuming mud and wall paint. She has unsettling, intrusive thoughts about this behavior. She was diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) with good insight with Pica, and she improved favorably to cognitive behavioral treatment and fluoxetine. Pica can manifest within the OCD spectrum and is frequently associated with nutritional deficits and stress. This example demonstrates effective selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) treatment, confirming earlier research. Even if pica’s etiology and treatment plans are still unknown, it is possible to classify pica as OCD in those cases where there is no developmental impairment.

Published: June 2024

Unlocking the potential of weak interactions to govern the electronic structure of organic molecules remains a significant challenge. This study constructs a quantitative relationship between conformations and strength of electronic through-space interactions (TSI) for tetraarylethanes (TAEs). To identify long-wavelength emitters, a sophisticated virtual screening is executed for TAE by constructing a TSI-based database. Consequently, an ultra-small emitter (o-2Md), distinguished by a highly concentrated n-electron configuration, is synthesized and shows a remarkable near-infrared (NIR) emission with a luminescence quantum yield of 25% and an emission wavelength extending beyond 800 nm. Notably, the o-2Md stands out as one of the smallest known organic NIR emitters, showcasing the robustness of n-n TSI in designing efficient emitters. This work not only systematically reveals the important role of weak interactions in manipulating the electronic structure at the single-molecule level but also provides a new platform, the TSI database, for designing advanced optoelectronic materials.

Published: June 2024

Nanoparticles have emerged as promising materials for a wide range of applications, including biomedicine, energy, and electronics. However, controlling their surface chemistry is essential to fully harness their potential, as it affects their physicochemical properties, stability, and interactions with biological systems. Surface functionalization is a key process enabling the adaptation of nanoparticle properties for specific applications. While introducing ligands during nanoparticle synthesis may not always be feasible, ligand exchange offers versatility in controlling surface chemistry. However, the direct replacement of negatively charged citrate on gold and silver nanoparticles with positive counterparts often leads to particle aggregation. Here, we present a straightforward one-step ligand exchange method to functionalize citrate-coated gold and silver nanoparticles with cationic ligands. By controlling citrate molecule protonation, we prevent nanoparticle aggregation, enabling successful displacement with positively charged alkanethiol ligands. Dynamic light scattering, zeta potential measurement, transmission electron microscopy alongside theoretical models provide comprehensive insights into the mechanism and dynamics of ligand exchange. Furthermore, we demonstrate the impact of surface functionalization of nanoparticles on the cytotoxic activity of nanoparticles in model cell lines, underscoring the significance of surface chemistry of nanoparticles for their biomedical applications.

Authors: Asra Ridho , Jones Alan
Published: June 2024

The development of electrochemical approaches to the valorization of abundant natural products into high value medications and metabolites is of pharmaceutical interest. In this study, we explored the electrosynthetic behavior of the abundant legal psychoactive, caffeine, a representative member of the purine alkaloid class. Initial screening of the cyclic voltammetric behavior of eleven exemplar purine alkaloids revealed a predicted structure electroactivity relationship (SeAr). Optimization of the current controlled electrochemical (CCE) reaction informed by cyclic voltammetry measurements enabled the dialing-in/out of differential oxidative metabolic products. Sequential desmethylation around the purine ring was observed both by isolation and comparison of reference standards using HPLC. Amide, imide, and a novel N-methyl heteroaryl oxidation mechanism are observed. Tractable quantities of the high-value theophylline (medication) and paraxanthine (dietary supplement) were isolated in 17% and 8% b.r.s.m. employing an electrolyte recovery strategy. This approach offers a marked improvement compared to other approaches (chemical 0.8% and enzymatic 0.97% yields) and may have potential in other natural product and drug discovery settings.

Kekatolikan Redup Karena Sekularisme?
Authors: Atawolo Andreas B. , Borgias Fransiskus
Published: June 2024

This article presents Marion’s apologetic arguments about the maturity of Catholicity in facing secularism. He believes that secularism, which impacts moral decadence and the hegemony of secular political power, does not extinguish the spirit of Catholicity but becomes a Catholic moment—a chance for her to bear witness to the radicality of love. Authors use the qualitative research method, by making comparison between the theological results-study of Marion and some other theologians’ study and research (Balthasar, Kevin Hart, and Peter-Ben Smit), after having critically read their theological arguments. The results can be put forward in the following dialectical points of theological arguments. The Catholic Church has a matured experience in living a community of love based on the generous love of the Father. The Church demonstrates its responsibility in the world while contemplating the perfect City of God. The Church is not anti-political but simultaneously does not adhere to the hegemony of power. Throughout history, it has struggled to make a clear separation between religion and the state. The Church embraces the world with its two arms, namely, the Word and the Eucharist.

Authors: Prajoth Karthika , M.G. Priya
Published: June 2024

Films are a significant part of popular culture that form the frame for exhibiting the culture of the times. Cinema shares a symbiotic relationship with culture by providing a platform for cultural representations and drawing inspiration from the cultural artefacts simultaneously. Two of the phenomenal off-centred Malayalam films, Moothon directed by Geetu Mohandas and Kaathal-The Core directed by Jeo Baby, become the recent trailblazers by unleashing the cultural transitions in exploring Homosexuality, its impact on the Malayalee audience and the necessity of comprehending the notion of queer space in the present Kerala society. Drawing theoretical insights from Eve Kosofsky Sedgewick's influential work The Epistemology of the Closet, Judith Butler’s “Gender Trouble: Feminism and the Subversion of Identity”, Gayle Rubin’s “Thinking Sex: Notes for a Radical Theory of the Politics of Sexuality” and Michael Foucault's concept of Heterotopia, this study explores the existential struggles and the trauma behind expressing one's unusual sexuality.

A NARRATIVE REVIEW ABOUT EXERCISE AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY SELF EFFICACY: HISTORY, CURRENT CONCERNS, AND GUIDELINES ABOUT MEASUREMENT (not peer reviewed)
Authors: Alves Douglas Silva , da Silva Rodrigo Silveira , Asano Ricardo Yukio
Published: June 2024

Self-efficacy was defined for the first time in 1977 as a conviction that one can successfully execute the behavior required to produce the outcomes and it is studied in physical activity sciences since 1979, demonstrating itself as a possible factor associated with behavioral changes linked to being more physically active in both healthy and non-healthy populations. However, there is a wide range of measurement tools, contributing to high variability across studies, the inability to acquire consistent knowledge about outcomes, and the importance of this concept to physical activity sciences. Thus, through a narrative approach, this review aimed to 1) review the concept and definition of the self-efficacy construct from the early approaches until currently 2) understand the most commonly used tools for measuring exercise/physical activity self-efficacy, as well as the differences between them, finally 3) attempting to formulate recommendations on how to select the most recommended one to use in different populations. To conclude, it is possible to see homogeneity in the definition approached in the published studies, however, there is heterogeneity in the used scales, making important the choice of the most appropriate one, having in mind different questions when opting to choose one.
