Are You an Early Dropper or Late Shopper? Mining Enrollment Transaction Data to Study Procrastination in Higher Education
Authors: Borchers Conrad , Xu Yinuo , Pardos Zachary A.
Published: May 2024

Educational data mining increasingly leverages enrollment data for higher education applications. However, these data describe final end-of-semester course selections, not the often complex enrollment activities leading up to a finalized schedule. Fine-grain transaction data of student waitlist, add, and drop actions during academic semester planning can explain the decision-making processes that lead to mismanaged course selection (e.g., dropping a course late with an institutional penalty). The present study investigates student late drops through the lens of procrastination. Results suggest that students who procrastinate on enrolling in courses are likelier to drop courses late. Further, students who enrolled late had a larger predicted workload than their nominal enrollment based on credit hours would suggest, pointing to potential mismanagement in the workload these students take on. These findings motivate the hypothesis that academic advising interventions that support students in academic planning could mitigate the adverse effects of procrastination on academic outcomes.
SECURE ROAD TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT (SRTM) SYSTEM FOR TRAFFIC VIOLATION DETECTION AND RECORDING USING BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY
Authors: Omar Mohamed Hasan , Taj-Eddin Islam A.T.F. , Omar Nagwa M. , Ibrahim Hosny M.
Published: May 2024

Traffic road violations are increasing continuously in crowded and big cities, which requires an automatic system for monitoring and detecting. This system should be accurate and secure against poisoning attacks that intend to delete some or all traffic violations. Accordingly, this study proposes a secure road traffic management system using the Internet of Things (IoT) and blockchain technology. The system uses a network of sensors, traffic signals, and cameras to track violating vehicles and record their violations in the blockchain. In the proposed system, we used deep learning models to recognize the vehicle identification number and type of traffic violations, and we stored the traffic violation data on the Ethereum test network. The proposed system consists of three steps: (1) vehicle information detection. (2) Type of violation detection. (3) Violation storage in the blockchain. The proposed secure road traffic management system uses blockchain, IoT, encryption, and authentication to increase violation detection and recording, processing speed, and communication delay, ultimately improving service quality and customer experience. The experimental results show that the proposed system is more accurate and secure than the other systems that have been proposed in recent research.

This paper describes a new idea of implementing multiple themes to provide personalization for autistic users when using the Visually Interactive Communication and Reading Aid (VICARA) application. This study aims to improve the usability of VICARA 2.0 by introducing a concept of multiple themes that consider sensitivity to sounds and visuals and ease of use for its new version. VICARA is a mobile-based Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) application that enables autistic children to communicate through visual images and picture-aided symbols with text and sound in Bahasa Indonesia. However, the previous version of VICARA has some limitations, namely, a lack of interactive communication features and user interface/user experience (UI/UX) suitable for autistic children with communication difficulties. This group of users needs special features and designs corresponding to their characteristics. Therefore, an application needs easy customizing adjustable to the unique qualities of its users. Design thinking methodology involved developing four UI/UX prototypes or themes carefully designed by following guidelines for developing and evaluating program applications targeting autistic users and using feedback from people interacting directly with autistic children. The evaluating prototypes involved qualitatively focus group discussions and quantitatively the System Usability Scale (SUS). The results show that each theme has an appealing and well-thought-out design and covers all the bases of the guidelines and standards used when creating an application for autistic users. These positive results lead to good usability with an SUS score of 84.44, which falls into the excellent category. Therefore, the concept of multiple themes improves the usability of VICARA and applies to developing a more inclusive AAC application.

Published: May 2024

Deep learning (DL) is becoming common in the financial and banking sectors. A detailed review of DL’s applications in banking and finance is still lacking in the body of existing literature. The literature on the use of model preprocessing evaluation, input data evaluation, and model evaluation is analyzed and evaluated in this study. This study provides direction and insight into the current state of DL model application in the banking and finance sectors for academics and practitioners. In this study, we compare the recurrent neural network (RNN), long short-term memory (LSTM), and gated recurrent units (GRU) as three RNN architectures. According to the findings, DL is more effective in predicting financial crises. With a precision of 99.6%, the GRU was the most precise model.

Authors: Thongkom Sommart , Boonraksa Promphak , Boonraksa Terapong
Published: May 2024

This study introduces a cost-effective portable electric towing system designed by researchers to facilitate mobility for individuals with lower limb disabilities. The system enables users to supplement their standard wheelchairs with an electric towing mechanism, enhancing the ease of movement at an affordable price point. After the design and construction phase, the system was tested to ensure functionality and performance. Testing criteria included a minimum user weight of 80 kg and a driving distance of at least 20 km per charge. The driving tests, conducted five times, occurred at the Seeniare Complex, Bangkokthonburi University (Nursing and Public Health Practice Center). Testing started by navigating a 3.5-m radius curve from a 15-km distance, simulating regular road conditions. Subsequently, the system’s ability to ascend a 1:12 gradient (in compliance with Thai accessibility standards) was evaluated. Additionally, the braking system was assessed to ensure that the electrically towed wheelchair could come to a static stop within a 10-m distance continuously along a 1:12 gradient without slipping or tipping. The results demonstrated compliance with specified standards on each occasion. Furthermore, cost comparison analysis with market-available electric wheelchairs revealed the lowest-priced towing system to be $382.16. User satisfaction evaluations indicated an overall satisfactory rating. This research underscores the potential of the developed electric towing system to significantly enhance mobility and independence for individuals with lower limb disabilities, offering a practical and cost-effective solution. Further studies and refinements could reinforce its efficacy and applicability in real-world scenarios, and upon analyzing the production costs, it can be seen that the towing kit developed is priced low, allowing people with low incomes to easily access assistive devices.
IMPACT OF A BRAIN-DIRECTED MOTOR PROGRAM ON THE ACCURACY SKILLS OF JORDANIAN UNIVERSITY STUDENTS IN THE ACADEMIC YEAR 2022/2023
Authors: Al-Jbour Nayef Muladi
Published: May 2024

This study aimed to identify the impact of a brain-oriented motor program on the accuracy element of Jordanian university students. The sample of the study consisted of 50 students from the study community. The researcher used the pilot curriculum to suit this study and the proposed program of 53 paragraphs, using the Statistical Packages Program for Social Sciences (SPSS) for data analysis and one-way ANOVA test to detect statistically significant differences at indicative level (α ≤ 0.05) in the accuracy level of the handball test and arrow throwing test, reaching the study results. One of the most important findings of the researcher was that there were no differences in accuracy in the handball test and the arrow throw test between the control group tribal and post measurements, where the t-value did not reach the statistical indicator level. There were also differences in the accuracy level of the handball test and the arrow throw test between the tribal and post measurements of the experimental group according to the tribal and post arrow test where the value t = 6.967 and statistically indicative 0.000 were in favor of remote selection, with the arithmetic average 16.84 and standard deviation 6.69. One of the essential recommendations by the researcher is the need to adopt a brain-oriented exercise program in universities requiring focus and to adopt a brain-oriented exercise program in universities with the beginning of practical lectures for students of colleges of sports education (practical materials) as a form of preparation (warm-up).

Authors: Suzuki Issei , Hanna Jun-ichi , Iino Hiroaki
Published: May 2024

We have investigated the fabrication of crystalline thin films of a liquid crystalline organic semiconductor (2-decyl-7-phenyl[1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophene: Ph-BTBT-10) by high-speed blade-coating at 140 mm s−1. Uniform crystalline Ph-BTBT-10 films were fabricated at temperatures over 50 °C, which is the temperature of the liquid crystal phase, without inhomogeneous recrystallization, despite the high-speed blade-coating. Transistors fabricated using these films showed a high average carrier mobility of 4.8 cm2 Vs−1 for 26 devices, with a coefficient of variation of only 7.3%. We concluded that liquid crystalline organic semiconductors are useful materials for high-speed meniscus-guided-coating for practical use.

Ashley on Gender Identity1
Authors: Bogardus Tomás , Byrne Alex
Published: May 2024

‘Gender identity’ was clearly defined sixty years ago, but the dominant conceptions of gender identity today are deeply obscure. Florence Ashley’s 2023 theory of gender identity is one of the latest attempts at demystification. Although Ashley’s paper is not fully coherent, a coherent theory of gender identity can be extracted from it. That theory, we argue, is clearly false. It is psychologically very implausible, and does not support ‘first-person authority over gender’, as Ashley claims. We also discuss other errors and confusions in Ashley’s paper.
What If Perceived Discrimination in Medicine Isn’t the Same as Real Discrimination?
Authors: Justman Stewart
Published: May 2024

Given the fallibility of human perception, it ought to be uncontroversial that reality is not necessarily as we perceive it. However, the medical literature waives this elementary principle in one instance – that of discrimination perceived by minority patients. Judging the perception of discrimination in such cases as equal to discrimination per se, the literature maintains that black patients in particular accurately discern the same insidious bias in medicine that permeates a society that no longer tolerates overt racism. In reality, however, the supposed signals of implicit bias in the clinical encounter are too ambiguous, too uninterpretable, and too conflicting to be discerned with any certainty by anyone. What is clear is that if the perception of bias can lead patients to forgo treatment, so can the misperception of bias. Literature that assumes that medicine is polluted with concealed bias validates misperceptions, foments mistrust, and sends the incautious message that black patients can expect poor treatment.

Headache is a symptom which people often self-medicate and community pharmacies are often places where self-medicating patients with headache obtain the medicines. Therefore, community pharmacists played an important role in providing appropriate advice for these patients. A cross-sectional study design was used. A questionnaire consisting of (1) pharmacy and pharmacists characteristics, and (2) two vignette cases of headache (tension headache and migraine due to an oral contraceptive) was developed. Data was collected using a structured interview with community pharmacists in an East Javan district. Data was analysed using content analysis. Appropriate recommendation was determined based on the literature and expert panel opinion. The total population was 81 community pharmacists. Of these, 47 agreed to participate. Of 47 participating pharmacists, 36 (77%) and 23 (49%) pharmacists provided appropriate advice in the case of tension headache and migraine due to the use of an oral contraceptive respectively. Appropriate recommendation provided by pharmacists varied according to the cases. Optimization of pharmacists’ recommendation in a case of headache requiring medical referral is needed.

O sucesso do tratamento endodôntico depende da descontaminação eficaz dos canais radiculares, complicada pela anatomia complexa e presença de microrganismos patogênicos, como o Enterococcus faecalis. Este estudo tem como objetivo avaliar a eficácia da terapia fotodinâmica (PDT) como coadjuvante no tratamento endodôntico para reduzir esses microrganismos. A revisão de literatura revela que a PDT demonstrou potencial em estudos recentes, especialmente quando combinada com agentes como quitosana, e como adjuvante ao tratamento convencional. No entanto, a padronização dos protocolos clínicos é essencial para otimizar sua aplicação, considerando variações nos microrganismos e métodos de tratamento. A PDT surge como uma estratégia promissora para aprimorar a desinfecção dos canais radiculares e melhorar os resultados do tratamento endodôntico, desde que integrada de maneira adequada aos procedimentos convencionais.

No Brasil existe aproximadamente uma frota de 1,8 milhões de caminhoneiros. E por seu excesso de trabalho originam-se vários problemas de saúde, como a hipertensão arterial, que é a elevação da pressão exercida pelo sangue dentro dos vasos sanguíneos. Considera-se atualmente a hipertensão como um dos fatores que designa “doença das responsabilidades”, e sabe-se que grande maioria dos caminhoneiros tem dia e horário para entrega de suas cargas, portanto enfrentam uma rotina de trabalho na qual apresentam horários irregulares para descansar e alimentar-se corretamente. Então tornam-se uma clientela de difícil acesso para os profissionais da saúde. Tem como objetivo principal analisar as condições de saúde dos caminhoneiros, cuja metodologia consiste em uma pesquisa de campo descritiva com enfoque quantitativa no qual seus resultados servem de base para a realização da avaliação das condições de saúde dos caminhoneiros, que transitam pela BR-316 Maranhão, com aplicação de questionário como instrumento de coleta de dados ao qual obteve-se que dos 115 motoristas caminhoneiros entrevistados, 98% eram do sexo masculino, 29% com idade maior 41 anos, 44% fazem uso de medicamentos para alterar o sono, 61% se alimentam com comida enlatada, 84% só vão a Unidade Hospitalar quando estão doentes, 51% fez sua última consulta há alguns anos, 22% referiram praticar atividades físicas. Diante disto, conclui-se que 64% dos caminhoneiros não sofrem de hipertensão, mas a grande maioria está exposta a riscos que venham contribuir para que os mesmos adquiram a patologia.

Geomorphic and ecological responses to human modification of the Fremont River, Capitol Reef National Park, Utah
Authors: Johaneman Taylor , Lininger Katherine , Schook Derek , Martin Michael
Published: May 2024

This study documents impacts to the Fremont River that were initiated by the construction of Utah State Route 24 in 1962 within what is now Capitol Reef National Park (CARE). The highway and related river modifications led to an artificial abandonment of a 4000 ft long river meander, creation of a channel bed knickpoint (i.e., waterfall), and at least 9 ft of vertical incision into the underlying Navajo Sandstone. Channel incision also appears to have translated upstream, as we found a significant trend of a deeper channel immediately upstream of the knickpoint that transitioned to being wider and shallower upstream. The rate of upstream propagation of these geomorphic changes may be as high as 20 ft/yr, with ongoing and future incision threatening the stream-riparian system further. The knickpoint and its upstream propagation through a knickzone have also affected the Fremont River riparian vegetation community within the less frequently flooded incised reach by shifting it toward more dry-adapted species. In contrast, the channel in the less incised reference reach inundates its floodplain more frequently, has a higher mean vegetation abundance, and supports more wet-adapted species. Upstream propagation of a more deeply incised channel will likely continue through the Navajo Sandstone segment and into the more vulnerable alluvial segment upstream. Reactivation of the abandoned river meander to restore the Fremont River and its riparian corridor will require channel realignment to match elevations between the current and abandoned channels. Additionally, further upstream in a sub-reach where the highway has been repeatedly impacted by overbank flows, direct observations by park staff are supported by our hydraulic modeling indicating that the highway is inundated by flows of between 1000 and 1900 cubic feet per second, which are expected to occur every 2?5 years. Mitigation to improve flood resiliency and to alleviate river-highway conflicts may also be appropriate. Overall, this study?s findings can help inform current river management decisions, state highway corridor planning, and future river restoration efforts in CARE.

Authors: Shah Satya , Ling Mao
Published: May 2024

This research is aimed to study on supplier relationship management particularly on service procurement of the oil and gas industry in Malaysia. Volatile oil price and COVID-19 pandemic required oil and gas companies to re-evaluate their supply chain strategies to minimise the impact. One of the strategies was to build better relationships with suppliers. Based on literature, services procurement is much more complex than goods procurement. The literature reviewed the topic of the oil and gas industry, outsourcing and subcontracting and supplier relationship management. In details, different elements of supplier relationship management are discussed such as its model, benefits, influencing factors and types of suppliers and relationships were discussed. From the literature review, a conceptual framework was developed. “Case study” is adopted as the research method as it provides sophisticated insight on the research topic. Four companies were interviewed to understand the supplier relationship management process. The research findings show that there are different supplier relationship management processes adopted by the four companies selected for case study. All companies agreed that they gained benefits with better supplier relationships. However, all the companies are facing difficulties in implementation of supplier relationship management. In addition, the interviewees expect their suppliers to be more competent in terms of cost, time and quality to contribute to a better buyer-supplier relationship. The conceptual framework is revised based on the research findings and presented as one of the findings.
Role of the Unproductive Money Concept in the Production of Anthropomorphic Metaphors in English-Language Financial Discourse
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Vorontsova Irina I.
Published: May 2024

The article analyses the role of anthropomorphic monetary metaphors (AMMs) in interpreting professional English-language financial information by recipients (in our case, university students). The priority direction – English-language AMMs of unproductive capital – is but sparingly represented in modern Russian and foreign linguistic papers. The article aims to study the role of AMMs in qualifying financial concepts. The subject of the study is the functioning and implementation of figurative language units exposing the concept of the category of money in the semantics of idle funds. The object of the study is the adjective + money model, where the modifier (adjective) of unproductivity imparts a pejorative meaning to the figurative expression. The new epistemological strategy of humanitarian anthropomorphism places emphasis on the relevance of studying AMMs in the linguocultural context of English-language financial discourse due to their linguistic and cultural asymmetry in Russian and English, which reduces the level of learning intuitiveness. The research method applied here is a linguistic semiological analysis of the adjective + money model with an unproductivity modifier. The material included a corpus of periodicals, archives, financial encyclopaedias and dictionaries, as well as online media. The author draws an inference that an interweaving of the conceptual domains of idleness and finance generates a metaphorical transfer from human characteristics to monetary entities with an expressive negative connotation of cognitive models that metaphorically reflect the attitude towards idle capital. Moreover, finding their way into the lexical equipment of the professional continuum, AMMs activate students’ rhetorical thinking, simplifying concepts that are difficult for them to understand and increasing their level of learning intuitiveness. The results can be of interest to linguists and experts in cultural studies and be used in the field of discourse analysis.
