Published: August 2023

Pragmatic is one of the important competencies that should be mastered by language learners because it focuses on utterance and speaker meaning. With regard to its focus, pragmatics deal with language functions-that is what language expression is commonly used in a particular situation. As language function, there are some aspects of pragmatics to be known by language learners during communication. However, this idea is not in line with the real condition because most English teaching in Indonesia does not focus on it.  The aim of this research is to know the lecturer’s view on the pragmatic failures phenomenon, students’ pragmatic competence, and the way to solve producing pragmatic failures in communication.

Published: August 2023

Abalone (Haliotis squamata) is a species of mollusk that has important economic value. The high market demand causes an increase in the level of exploitation in nature. Therefore, abalone cultivation activities in controlled containers must be carried out to meet market demand and prevent over-exploitation in nature. One of the parameters that must be considered for the success of abalone cultivation is temperature. This study aims to determine the effect of different temperatures on the survival rate of abalone shellfish. This study used a completely randomized design with 3 treatments, A (temperature 24 oC), B (temperature 27 oC), C (temperature 30 oC) and temperature 29 oC as a control. The parameters measured were the survival and weight growth of abalone mussels. The results showed that the highest survival rate was in treatment A with a value of 70% and B with a value of 50%. The lowest survival rate was in treatment C with a value of 40% while the weight growth of abalone mussels in treatment A increased more with the growth value of abalone weight 8.91 gr. Based on the results of the analysis of variance ANOVA showed that the temperature difference treatment had a significant effect on the survival of abalone shells where F count 2.126 F table 0.219 and the results of calculating the weight of abalone shells that were kept at different temperature media obtained F count 3.385 F table 0.140, which means there was a significant difference in the survival and growth of abalone shell weights.

A convenience sampling technique distributed 329 self-administered questionnaires to the Malaysian Army and training establishment Muslim military personnel. Then, the survey questionnaire data were analyzed using SmartPLS path analysis.
Finding – The outcomes of hypotheses testing showed these interesting findings: training motivation does act as an important mediating variable between training syllabus and instructors' roles in the relationship with training transfer. At the same time, there is no mediation effect in the relationship between superiors' support and training transfer.
Novelty –The confirmatory factor analysis results showed that the instrument used in this study satisfactorily met the standard of validity and reliability analyses. Furthermore, the SmartPLS path model analysis outcomes proved that training syllabus and instructors' roles were important predictors of trainees' training motivation in the organizations.

Problemi connessi alle dimissioni dell'unico trustee e la temporanea gestione del guardiano (Trib. Milano, 11 novembre 2022)
Authors: Valas Igor
Published: August 2023

Tesi
La sentenza in commento è l’ulteriore evidenziazione di quanto ancora solo si “intuisca” del trust e di quali danni possa portare la sua non corretta metabolizzazione. Sul presupposto del nostro ordinamento per il quale il Giudice non può pronunciarsi ultra petita, il provvedimento è dunque la diretta conseguenza delle domande formulate e, soprattutto, della loro causa giuridica. Da una aberrante clausola dell’atto istitutivo per la quale il guardiano sarebbe onerato non solo della nomina del trustee, ma anche della “gestione temporanea” del trust, si è giunti ad un peculiare quanto non corretto provvedimento che, per tacer della sua ineseguibilità, anziché risolvere e sopperire alla totale carenza di un trustee del trust per un lungo lasso di tempo, la attesta e di conseguenza la dichiara. Questa pronuncia è aberrante in forza della legge regolatrice, ma anche nell’ambito del nostro ordinamento: in questo periodo, da chi e con quale titolarità sono stati posti in essere atti e fatti relativi al fondo in trust?
The author’s view
The judgment under review is further highlighting how much we still only “sense” about the trust and what damage its incorrect metabolization can bring. On the assumption of our system for which the judge cannot pronounce ultra petita, the ruling is thus the direct consequence of the questions formulated and, above all, of their legal cause. From an aberrant clause in the deed of trust for which the guardian would be burdened not only with the appointment of the trustee but also with the “temporary management” of the trust, we have arrived at a peculiar as well as incorrect measure that, to say nothing of its unenforceability, instead of resolving and making good the total lack of a trustee of the trust for a long period of time, attests to it and consequently declares it. This pronouncement is aberrant by virtue of the governing law, but also in the context of our legal system: during this period, by whom and with what proprietorship were acts and deeds relating to the trust in trust enacted?
I beneficiari di trust 'commerciali' secondo la Circolare 34/E
Authors: Stevanato Dario
Published: August 2023

Tesi
È noto che, con la Circolare n. 34 del 2022, l’Agenzia delle Entrate ha mutato orientamento con riguardo al regime fiscale dei redditi conseguiti da trust commerciali di natura “opaca”: secondo l’Agenzia la distribuzione di redditi ai beneficiari darebbe luogo, in capo ad essi, a un utile da partecipazione tassabile nell’ambito dei redditi da capitale. La tesi erariale appare tuttavia criticabile, principalmente per la seguente ragione: i beneficiari di un trust non effettuano di norma alcun apporto o impiego di capitale nel trust, dunque non è possibile assimilarli ai soci di una società di capitale e ritenere che i redditi loro erogati vadano tassati come “dividendi”.
The author’s view
It is well known that, with Circular No. 34 of 2022, the Internal Revenue Service has changed its orientation with regard to the tax regime of income earned by business trusts of an “opaque” nature: according to the Agency, the distribution of income to beneficiaries would give rise, in their hands, to a participation profit taxable under capital income. However, the Treasury’s thesis appears to be objectionable, mainly for the following reason: the beneficiaries of a trust do not normally make any capital contribution or employment in the trust, so it is not possible to assimilate them to the shareholders of a capital company and consider that the income distributed to them should be taxed as “dividends”.

Authors: Aggarwal Niharika , Srivastava Ruchi , Agarwal Shelly
Published: August 2023

Since decades many trails for induction of labor have been done using different methods with different regimes to try tond the ideal induction regime which is both safe and effective. The present study was conducted among 126 participants who presented in the Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, School of Medical Sciences & Research, Sharda University, Greater Noida. It was a randomized control trial conducted over the span of 2 years with the aim to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of loading oral misoprostol with maintenance vaginal misoprostol administration on induction of labor in nulliparous women. In the case group loading oral misoprostol followed maintenance vaginal misoprostol was given. In control group only vaginal misoprostol was given. Total number of doses given in case group is less than control group with signicant p value. This shows that a lesser number of doses were required in case group for induction of labor, correlating with lesser duration from induction to rst contraction, to active phase and to vaginal delivery in case group than control group. Oxytocin augmentation was similar in both case and control group. Total 80 participants achieved vaginal delivery and 46 participants had emergency caesarean section. Although p value between groups is not signicant but proposed regime had lower caesarean rate. Maternal and fetal complication had insignicant difference between the two groups.

A PROSPECTIVE OBSERVATIONAL STUDY ON COMPLIANCE TO A 14- DAY ZINC TREATMENT FOR ACUTE DIARRHEA IN UNDER 5 YEARS CHILDREN? ARE WE FAILING AT IT
Authors: Jain Smrati
Published: August 2023

Background: Over a million children die as a result of diarrhea and dehydration every year. Provision of zinc in addition to low osmolarity ORS is still ineffectively implemented. A prospecti Methods: ve observational study was conducted on 101 children under 5 years of age with acute gastroenteritis to assess their compliance with zinc therapy from Jan 2023 to March 2023 visiting Pediatric Outpatient department of Tertiary Care Hospital, Lucknow. They were prescribed nationally advised WHO ORS and zinc treatment regimen (ie, 10 mg/day for ages 2–6 months and 20 mg/day for ages 7–59 months for 14 days) Our objective was to study the compliance of 14 day Zinc supplementation ,to nd the reasons for non-compliance ,to nd the statistical diffference in repeated episodes of diarrhea over the next 3 months among the two groups . A p-value of <0.05 was considered statistically signicant The mean age was 18.58±13.41 Results: months, 39.60% of patients completed the full 14 days of zinc therapy. Zinc was administered for an average of 8.28±2.81 days. Further episodes of diarrhoea occurred in 10.65% of the subjects. In general, diarrhoea ended (63. 9%), ignorance (14.75%), and vomiting(11.5%) were the main causes of termination. The compliance of Zinc supplementation is very poor among Conclusions: caregivers of children suffering from acute diarrhea. The results show that the syrup formulation is suitable, although more work is needed to improve adherence. These results further emphasise the signicance of ensuring zinc duration adherence while also addressing care givers propensity to stop medication once a child seems to be recovering from an acute diarrheal episode

Published: August 2023

Arch dimensions can change during orthodontic treatment. So Orthodontist should require adequate knowledge about changes in arch dimensions prior to orthodontic treatment. The aim of the study was to determine whether there is a correlation between dental arch widths & Growth pattern. The comparison of the dental arch width between the groups and the gender prediction is evaluated. The study population included 61 patients, reporting to Department of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics in Best Dental Science College, Madurai. Based on Jarabak's ratio the study subjects were divided into horizontal and vertical growers. The parameters such as Inter cuspal & Most buccal widths of canine, I & II premolars & I molar were measured in both the arches. Arch widths of the study subjects were measured from the study models. All the data were tabulated & subjected to statistical analysis (Students t test). Based on the ndings, Vertical growers have narrow arch width in both maxilla & mandible compared to the horizontal growers with p value of 0.002. Among the gender difference, Female arch widths were constricted than male arch widths in both maxilla & mandible with p value of 0.002.To conclude Vertical growers have narrow arch width in both maxilla & mandible. Ÿ Using arch wires based on each patient's pre-treatment shape of arch and widths is recommended during orthodontic treatment, since dental arch width is correlated with growth pattern.

Institutional Learning in Higher Education and Graduate Transitions
Authors: Federighi Paolo
Published: August 2023

The ‘learning exclusion equilibrium’ strategy in Italy also governs young adults’ possibilities of accessing higher education institutions (HEIs) and entering and being successful on the labour market. The upshot of this strategy has been to weaken the social role of universities and open the field to new players promoting new solutions based on stronger teaching and research partnerships. After graduation, young university leavers face a period in which they follow non-linear paths as they try to fit their skills to the labour market demand. For many professions, there has been an immense change in this demand. Now, unlike the past, life skills are considered basic competences for technical professions too. If those lacking these skills enter the labour market later, the problem arises of how to create these competences both during the period of university education and in the following years. Universities have to practise institutional learning and study with those who need knowledge in order to come up with a new strategy so that their graduates can directly manages their relations with the labour market. Knowledge of the situation and development of graduates’ professional lives is needed in order to give academic programmes a new direction and allow students to make an informed choice of which university to enrol in. The European Graduate Tracking Initiative can lead the way towards this goal.

Published: August 2023

Planning and designing lifelong teaching-learning processes requires well-educated professionals in adult and continuing education. Against the background of changing social structures, they must be able to act confidently in interdisciplinary, cooperative and unpredictable interaction situations. This requires the development of professionalism in adult education with respect to the following perspectives: 1) interdependencies within the multi-level system of adult education, 2) inference between academic knowledge and adult educational practice, and 3) mediation processes between different social logics of action. Using the example of the International Adult Education Academy, we present and discuss ways of referencing the three perspectives of professionalism in the academic professionalisation of adult education.
