Authors: Leong Siew Yong , Yip Man Yee , Tan Chi Hau , Chan Man Seong
Published: February 2024

Although the demand for men’s skincare products is becoming increasingly popular in Malaysia, previous studies of social media marketing have shed little light on the effect of social media influencers on men’s skincare purchase intention. Therefore, this research investigates the effects of social media influencers’ attractiveness, trustworthiness, expertise, likability, similarity, and familiarity on purchase intention in men’s skincare products among Generation Y in Malaysia. An online questionnaire was implemented, and 279 respondents were gathered using the snowball sampling technique. After obtaining the desired responses, multiple regression analysis was adopted to examine the research model and hypotheses. The findings showed that social media influencers’ attractiveness, similarity, and familiarity positively affect the purchase intention of men’s skincare products. However, this paper found that the effects of social media influencers’ trustworthiness, expertise, and likability on purchase intention of men’s skincare products among Generation Y in Malaysia are insignificant. The research findings contribute to the current research literature by determining the six characteristics of social media influencers and purchase intention with new empirical insights from Malaysia in the context of men’s skincare products.

Authors: Ho Jen Sim , Sri Nusa Ahmad Lili Yuzrina , Tan Booi Chen
Published: February 2024

Mobility is evolving globally. Automated vehicle technology is consistently advancing with the development of Artificial Intelligence and information communication technology. The Autonomous Vehicle is acknowledged with the benefits of reducing traffic fatalities, reduced emissions and convenience. If autonomous vehicles are widely adopted, the Sustainable Development Goals could be achieved. Various studies have been conducted to investigate the psychological factors (internal) as well as assess the efforts of institutions (external) in promoting the adoption of autonomous vehicles. Nonetheless, there is very few studies examined the impacts of internal and external factors on the acceptance of autonomous vehicles simultaneously. Therefore, this study is taken to close the gap in understanding the acceptance of autonomous vehicles in Malaysia by integrating the internal factors and external factors in a model. By reviewing the past studies, a conceptual framework which can offer a comprehensive insight to the policymakers and car makers from the public’s perspective is proposed. Implications from this study can serve as a basis for prioritising the budget resources and development guidelines for the successful implementation of autonomous vehicles in Malaysia.

Authors:   Korean Association For Political And Diplomatic History, Hwang Cheol Gyun
Published: February 2024

This study examines and applies the diplomatic strategy of Seo Hee, a renowned Goryea diplomat, in resolving Northeast Asian diplomatic challenges that remain unresolved in the 21st century. The examination focuses on Seo Hee’s diplomatic negotiations in the wake of Goryeo’s territorial dispute with the Khitans.
Seo Hee’s diplomatic resolution with Khitan general Xiao Sunning, leading to the acquisition of six provinces east of the Aprok River(Yalu River), may offer clues to resolving presentday diplomatic issues in Northeast Asia involving Korea. Based on the framework of Seo Hee’s diplomatic resolution with Xiao Sunning, this study proposes solutions to conflicts over the Northern Limit Line (NLL) interpretation between South Korea and North Korea, territorial claims to Dokdo between South Korea and Japan, and the exclusive economic zone between South Korea and China.
Furthermore, the study advocates benchmarking South Korea’s foreign policy and strategy Seo Hee’s diplomatic resolution in the current international politics in the contradiction and persuasion, terming this diplomatic strategy Seo Hee’s diplomatic strategy for the contradiction and persuasion. Two key proposals emerge from Seo Hee’s diplomatic strategy: first, the importance of training and contradiction and persuasion style diplomatic experts; and second, the adoption of a pragmatic foreign policy with a win-win strategy in which the country and its diplomatic counterpart create mutually favorable outcomes together, rather than a one-sided win or loss. The study posits that South Korea’s diplomacy will make further progress with proper application of these proposals.

This study aims to evaluate the frequency of domestic violence based on court orders for treatment issued against perpetrators of domestic violence under Law No. 6284 on the Protection of Family and the Prevention of Violence against Women. We retrospectively analyzed violence cases reported by the court to the provincial health directorate under Law No. 6284 and information recorded by health workers about women who stated they were subjected to violence in 2019, 2020, and the first 6 months of 2021. The data were presented using descriptive statistics. Compared to the pre-pandemic period, the number of court orders for medical evaluation and treatment under Law No. 6284 increased by 333.4% in the first year of the pandemic. In the first 6 months of 2021, this number exceeded the total for 2020. More than half of the perpetrators had at least one addiction. Although health workers continue to provide service under the extreme circumstances brought about by the pandemic, they have a social responsibility to act with an awareness of violence in all areas of service provision (even contact tracing) and remain vigilant for signs of violence, especially in women.

Authors: TÜREDİ Gamze , ALTUNTAŞ Serap
Published: February 2024

Nurses encounter various situations in their work that can affect their emotional status, and they can contagion these emotions to others. These emotions experienced by nurses can influence nursing care. The study used a cross-sectional, descriptive, and correlational design to explore the impact of emotional contagion among nurses on unmissed nursing care. The research was conducted with 304 volunteer nurses through an online survey. Data were collected using a survey form consisting of a Demographic Information Form, Emotional Contagion Scale, and Missed Nursing Care Needs Scale. The data were analyzed by the researchers. The study revealed that nurses had a moderate level of emotional contagion. Differences in emotional contagion levels were found based on gender, age, educational level, type of institution, marital status, working hours, institutional experience, unit of work, and voluntary choice of job (p < 0.05). Additionally, the study showed that the level of missed nursing care among nurses was low. "Communication" was identified as the most significant factor causing missed nursing care. The level of missed nursing care varied according to gender, age, educational status, type of institution, professional and institutional experience, marital status, working hours, unit of work, and duration of employment (p < 0.05). Emotional contagion had a negative impact on the need for missed nursing care (β = -0.150, t = -2.636, R2 = 0.022, p < 0.05), its causes (β = -0.193, t = -3.411, R2 = 0.037, p < 0.05), especially workforce resources (β = -0.249, t = -4.470, R2 = 0.062, p < 0.05), and material resources (β = -0.271, t = -4.898, R2 = 0.074, p < 0.05). To reduce the level of missed nursing care, fostering positive emotions among nurses and promoting their transmission can be utilized as a strategy.

A Consensual Qualitative Research on the Field Experience of Sexual Violence Counselors: Focusing on the Personal and Professional Domains
Authors:   Korean Correction Counseling Psychological Association, Choi Min Jung , Joo Eun Sun
Published: February 2024

This study aimed to explore the field experiences of sexual violence counselors. It included 11 sexual violence counselors, and the research was conducted from March to June 2019. Data were analyzed using the Consensus Qualitative Research(CQR) method. The results revealed 5 central concepts, 13 domains, 39 categories. In the personal domain, psychological exhaustion due to various factors, efforts to continue the work, and the driving force of 'sense of mission' were identified. In the professional domain, the importance of multifaceted efforts as professionals, assistance needed for professional improvement, and the recognition of the connection between sexual violence and socio-cultural structures were emphasized. Through this, it was evident that sexual violence counselors experienced psychological burnout in the personal domain due to vicarious trauma, competence gaps, limitations of specialized counseling, heavy workloads, and recruitment challenges due to low pay and high turnover. Although counselors overcome these challenges through a sense of mission, sustaining work for an extended period is challenging through individual efforts alone, challenging work environments. In the professional realm, there was a consensus that continuous personal efforts are being made for professional improvement, but it was emphasized that social support should accompany these individual endeavors. Therefore, active support on a societal level is necessary, and improving their working conditions is crucial. This study is significant as it delves deeply into the experiences of sexual violence counselors, laying the groundwork for improving their professionalism.

Authors:   Korean Correction Counseling Psychological Association, Kwon Young Soon , Byun Sang Hae
Published: February 2024

In this study, we aimed to examine whether attachment-anxiety and attachment-avoidance affect emotional expression ambivalence in maladaptive multicultural youth, and to confirm the mediating effect of interpersonal problems in the relationship between maladaptive multicultural youth attachment style and emotional expression ambivalence. In the study, based on previous research suggesting that understanding the level of attachment of close others is more important than understanding the attachment pattern with parents, the subjects of the study were multicultural adolescents attending 10 high schools located in Gyeonggi-do. A survey was conducted on a total of 176 participants, analyzing 78 male and 98 female adolescents. The self-report questionnaires ECR-R, AEQ-K, and IIP were used for measurement. For the analysis, descriptive statistics and correlation analysis were conducted using the SPSS/WIN 24.0 program, followed by regression analysis and Sobel tests to verify the mediation effect. The results of the study showed firstly significant differences in the correlation between interpersonal relationship problems and emotional expression ambivalence according to the attachment type of maladaptive multicultural youth. Secondly, it was found that interpersonal problems had a mediating effect in the relationship between emotional expression ambivalence, according to the attachment type of maladaptive multicultural youth.

Authors: Song Yun Hyeok , Lim Ji Min , Khot Sagar , Jung Dongmyung , Kwon Yongwoo
Published: February 2024

In this study, the architecture of an interfacial switching memristor, which has a metal-insulatormetal structure of Pt/SrTiO3/Nb-SrTiO3 was investigated. The performance of a neural network that uses memristors as its synapse components was also examined with system-level simulations. A finite element solver, COMSOL Multiphysics, was used to simulate synaptic device characteristics, specifically, the conductance change, using a series of pulses for a given architecture. An open-source software, NeuroSim, was used to simulate the ability of the neural network to recognize and identify handwritten digits. Electrostatics, mass transport, and thermionic emission equations were numerically solved in a fully coupled manner to model the Schottky barrier height modulation at the Pt/SrTiO3 contact using the applied bias. The barrier height is a function of the oxygen vacancy concentration in the SrTiO3 near the contact. The gradual change of the oxygen vacancy concentration profile caused by successive pulses results in the gradual change of conductance. Utilizing the simulations, the influences of device structure modification, and more specifically, changing the size of the Schottky contact, on long-term potentiation and depression were analyzed for planar devices. The results show that a smaller Schottky contact yields a higher digit recognition rate. Based on this finding, a three-dimensional device architecture that is vertically stackable was designed.

This review provides an overview of recent advances in the materials and structural design of flexible piezoresistive sensors, which are of significant interest as smart devices in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Recent research has focused on addressing demand for a wide pressure range and high sensitivity for use in diverse applications. In terms of sensor materials, this review begins by introducing elastomers used for matrix and substrate, which provide exceptional conformability to curved surfaces and mechanical flexibility to withstand stretching and bending. They can also incorporate sensing materials in various forms of nanostructures capable of effectively transmitting electrical signals, exploiting the nanomaterial’s electrical properties and conductivity pathways formation mechanisms under pressure, which define the sensor’s characteristics. Additionally, this review explores structural design considerations, including different types of microstructures that can deform easily even under low pressure, enhancing sensor sensitivity, as well as hierarchical structures capable of gradual changes in contact area to provide a wide range of operating pressures. Moreover, the review discusses time- and cost-efficient microfabrication techniques to facilitate practical utilization of the device. This review then summarizes the applications of high-performance sensors in fields such as health monitoring, including pulse detection and motion tracking, robotics, and human-machine interaction involving components such as touch screens and keypads.

La Teoría de la Mente (ToM, del inglés Theory of Mind) se define cómo la capacidad de atribuir estados mentales o emocionales a los demás y a sí mismo. El desarrollo de esta capacidad está altamente asociado con la estructura y dinámica familiar. Poco se ha estudiado el papel de la familia en el funcionamiento de la ToM en los niños, directamente en niños con Trastorno de Déficit de Atención e Hiperactividad (TDAH). Este estudió se realizó tiene como objetivo establecer la asociación entre la estructura familiar y el funcionamiento de la ToM en niños con el trastorno. Se trabajó con 63 niños con TDAH y 63 niños con Desarrollo Típico (DT), todos escolarizados, en edades entre 7 y 12 años. Las medidas de ToM se tomaron empleando una batería de ToM basada en tareas de falsa creencia, el test de miradas y el faux pas test. Los datos se analizaron empleando modelos de regresión lineal. Se halló que la posición y la cantidad de hermanos resultaron como predictores de la ToM avanzada en niños con TDAH en tanto que la convivencia con los hermanos fue la predictora de la ToM básica en niños con desarrollo típico. Se confirma la relevancia de la familia para el funcionamiento de la ToM tanto para niños con TDAH como para niños con desarrollo típico. Así mismo se determina que es la interacción con los hermanos y no con los padres lo que más efecto tiene en la ToM.

Published: February 2024

Este artigo apresenta um  estudo que teve como objetivo compreender o processo de afiliação à vida universitária. Para isso, se fundamentou na perspectiva da Psicologia Cultural Semiótica que enfoca a análise das trajetórias desenvolvimentais e a produção de significados na relação entre pessoa e ambiente. Como método, foi realizado um estudo de caso de perspectiva qualitativa, idiográfica e microgenética. Os dados foram coletados no final do ano de 2021 através de entrevista semiestruturada e foram analisados a partir da elaboração de categorias temáticas. Como resultados, encontrou-se que o contexto universitário pode catalisar a sensação de não pertencimento ou de não lugar para o estudante, caracterizando-se como um local passível de reproduzir preconceitos e discriminações de raça, gênero, classe e orientação sexual. Além disso, a experiência construída no contexto universitário possui alta carga afetiva, sendo, portanto, experienciada na dimensão afetivo-semiótica. Sugere-se o aprofundamento de mais investigações com esse objeto de estudo, visando a contribuição para a permanência no estudante na universidade, bem como para a construção de políticas públicas de assistência ao sofrimento psíquico do estudante.

Tooth Fusion in Primary Teeth: A Case Report and Literature Review
Authors: Shah Roocha , Panda Anup , Virda Mira , Shukla Balraj , Savakiya Aishwarya , Bhudharani Unnati
Published: February 2024

Fused teeth represent an abnormality in dental development in which two tooth germs merge in the crown, root, or pulp stages. This anomaly occurs within the bone formation process, resulting in a structurally irregular tooth that can impact both the primary and the permanent dentition. Aesthetic concerns, space limitations, and an increased risk of cavities commonly accompany fused teeth. It's often confused with dental twinning, which shares similar clinical characteristics but originates from a single tooth germ.
This study aimed to present a clinical case involving the fusion of two primary mandibular incisors, outlining potential treatment strategies and discussing its effects on dental development. Treatment involved extraction of the fused tooth and recommending orthodontic intervention to enhance both appearance and function. Collaborative planning between Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics facilitated a more effective treatment approach.

QUALITY ACCREDITATION OF DENTAL CLINICS: NEED OF THE HOUR (PART 3) ADDRESSING REQUIREMENTS RELATED TO CARE OF PATIENTS
Authors: Dhule Manjusha
Published: February 2024

This is the third article in the series of articles ‘Quality Accreditation of Dental Clinics – Need of the hour’. As described in the first article (Published in JIDA May 2020 issue) there are 10 chapters in NABH standards for Dental Healthcare Service Providers (DHSP). First chapter ‘Access, Assessment & Continuity of Care’ (AAC) was described in JIDA June 2020 issue. ‘Care Of Patients’ (COP) is the second chapter.
Addressing accreditation standards and implementing them in day-to-day practices is the primary objective in the preparation of DHSP for accreditation. Involvement of clinical staff is needed to address requirements of this chapter; as this chapter describes the clinical aspects of care for patients under dental treatment. This expects to provide uniform care to all patients.
This chapter covers aspects related to legal guidelines, clinical guidelines, emergency services in dental practice, dental laboratory, use of local anaesthesia and sedation in dentistry.
Aim of this article was to provide brief idea about the criteria required to fulfill in order to address requirements related to the second chapter of NABH i.e. COP.

Awareness on tobacco habits and its ill-effects amongst the low
socio-economic strata - A cross sectional study in a residential complex
of central Mumbai suburbs
Authors: Patil Richika , Tamgadge Sandhya
Published: February 2024

Objective: This is a cross sectional study containing majorly dichotomous questions designed to focus on the extent of awareness about the detrimental effects of tobacco consumption in any form present amongst the low socio-economic strata as awareness is lacking in this group.
Methods: A study group of 50 domestic workers was surveyed. A feasible method with a survey-based questionnaire was used. Emphasis was given to oral examination and the questions related to awareness on a personal level.
Results: 78% of the study group were tobacco users. All 78% continued the habit despite the awareness. 92% of the participants were aware about the ill-effects.
Conclusion: Participants were ignorant about their health despite knowing the consequences. This could mean that the awareness present is not enough.

"Assessment of Knowledge and Attitude of Parents Regarding Dental Radiography for Children: A Cross Sectional Questionnaire Study"
Authors: Shah Susmita , Dave Bhavna , Deshpande Anshula , Kariya Pratik , Chari Deepika
Published: February 2024

Background:The use of x-rays as a diagnostic module is quite useful in modern medicine and dentistry. Every radiological procedure should be justified and designed to keep the radiation risk as low as possible, although the exposure to dental x-rays is relatively small.Aim:Aim of the present study was to assess the knowledge and attitude of parents towards dental radiography for children.

Methodology A total of 60 questionnaires were distributed in three languages, based on their language preferences, to parents (English, Hindi and Gujarati). The questionnaire was completed by the participants during the same visit. The questionnaire included two sets of questions to test the knowledge and attitude of parents to x-rays.
Results:A total of 58 out of 60 questionnaires were filled completely. Only 32.3% of participants considered x-rays were harmful, while 67.2% thought they were safe. However, 58.6% of participants agreed that the dentist explained them about risk of x-rays.

Conclusion: The study concluded that practicing dentists should be encouraged to follow X-ray safety regulations. Overall, parental knowledge of dental radiographs and associated factors was found to be lacking.

Keywords: parent’s awareness, dental radiograph, knowledge, radiation exposure.
Pertinence of the Tactile Controlled Activation(TCA) technique in the management of severely curved root canals - A report of two cases
Authors: Das Snigdho , Adhikari H.D. , Niyogi Abhijit
Published: February 2024

Canal curvatures such as dilacerated canals, bayonet-shaped canals, and acute curvatures in the apical third pose a therapeutic challenge to the clinician. Pre-treatment determination of the degree of curvature, usage of scrupulous instrumentation techniques facilitate successful negotiation of the bends and enhance the quality of the treatment. The following case series chronicles the application of a novel instrumentation technique known as Tactile Controlled Activation(TCA) technique in the management of sharp apical curvatures in a molar and a premolar, thus upholding its accountability in the management of canal curvatures without any iatrogenic mishaps, besides maintaining the original trajectory of the canal.

Assessment of rugaoscopic pattern to compare with gender identifi cation in Andhra Pradesh population: An institutional study
Authors: Prasanna K. Lakshmi , Kattappagari Kiran Kumar
Published: February 2024

Background: Palatal rugae are anatomically asymmetrical and irregular ridges in the anterior palatal region. The palatal ruages were demonstrated to be useful in the field of forensic dentistry. This study was taken to assess the ruage patter to compare with gender identification in those who had attended dental institutions in Andhra Pradesh.

Materials and Methods: A total of 40 subjects were included in the present study, those who attended a dental institution as a prospective cross sectional study. The rugae patterns were marked and classified according to Kapali et al., 1997, based on morphological pattern.

Results: Female participants were more numerous in study samples when compared with males. The palatal ruage in female participants showed a higher incidence of wavy, circular, and divergent patterns, while male participants showed straight, curved, wavy, and convergent rugae patterns. Comparison of gender with respect to the mean number of rugae patterns on the right and left sides using a student t-test revealed that there was no stastically significant (p≥0.05).

Conclusion: The rugae pattern can be one of the important aspects in the field of forensic odontology. The palate represents a suitable landmark for unique and identifying features, with the additional benefit of survival in most post-mortem events that can disrupt or change other body parts.

Endodontic management of Mandibular second premolar with aberrant root and canal morphology: a case report
Authors: Thakur Veerandar Singh
Published: February 2024

A proper understanding about variations in root canal anatomy and confounding nature of human pulpal system plays a significant role in success of endodontic treatment. Presence of variations should always be considered even in teeth like mandibular second premolars which show very less frequency of unusual root canal anatomy. The case report presents diagnosis and successful endodontic management of mandibular left second premolar with a very rare and peculiar type of root and canal anatomy (Vertucci type V root canal configuration).

Quantitative assessment of muscle fatigue during rowing ergometer exercise using wavelet analysis of surface electromyography (sEMG)
Authors: Daniel Natalia , Małachowski Jerzy , Sybilski Kamil , Siemiaszko Dariusz
Published: February 2024

In this paper, we present a quantitative assessment of muscle fatigue using surface electromyography (sEMG), a widely recognized method that is conducted through various analytical approaches, including analysis of spectral and time-frequency distributions. Existing research in this field has demonstrated considerable variability in the computational methods used. Although some studies highlight the efficacy of wavelet analysis in dynamic motion, few offer a comprehensive method for determining fatigue and applying it to specific movements. Previous research has focused primarily on discerning differences based on sport type or gender, with a notable absence of studies that presented results for quantifying fatigue during exercise with rowing ergometers. Developing on our previous work, where we introduced a method for determining muscle fatigue through wavelet analysis, considering biomechanical aspects of limb position changes, this current article serves as a continuation. Our study refines the research approach for a selected group, focusing on fatigue determination using the previously established method. The results obtained confirm the effectiveness of DWT analysis in assessing muscle fatigue, as evidenced by the achievement of negative values of the regression coefficients of Median Frequency (MDF) during exercises performed to maximal fatigue. Furthermore, it has been confirmed that the homogeneity of the group and, in the case of the examined group, the results previously achieved or lower limb strength do not have an impact on the results. Finally, we discuss the main limitations of our study and outline the subsequent steps of our investigation, providing valuable information for future investigations in this field.
