Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami dinamika penyelesaian masalah dalam masyarakat melalui analisis kausalitas dalam pembentukan produk hukum. Teori demokrasi dan ketergantungan pada lembaga, baik internal maupun eksternal, menjadi landasan dalam penelitian ini. Metodologi yang digunakan adalah pendekatan normatif-empiris, di mana norma dan fenomena sosial dalam masyarakat diteliti secara mendalam. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa produk hukum sering kali lebih mengutamakan kepentingan khusus daripada kepentingan umum, dengan contoh konkret seperti undang-undang yang mengatur hak cipta dan paten, yang cenderung lebih menguntungkan perusahaan besar daripada kepentingan umum dalam akses terhadap informasi dan teknologi. Kebijakan yang berasal dari proses politik, bukan dari realitas sosial, menghasilkan hukum yang tidak stabil, seringkali tidak sesuai dengan peranannya sebagai panduan masyarakat, dan dapat memicu konflik antar warga dan pemerintah. Meskipun undang-undang yang baik seharusnya memberikan perlindungan bagi semua lapisan masyarakat, undang-undang yang dirancang untuk memenuhi kepentingan tertentu seringkali menimbulkan ketidakadilan dan kerusuhan sosial.

Authors: Khofifah Khofifah , Sudaryanti Dwiyani
Published: August 2024

Sharia Bank is a banking institution that operates its business with sharia principles. There is a fundamental difference between Islamic banks and conventional banks, namely Islamic banks do not use the interest system (usury) in every transaction, besides that Islamic banks also use a profit-sharing system in profit sharing. However, there are still many who do not know about this, this can be seen from the results of the Islamic financial literacy index in 2019 which shows that public literacy regarding Islamic finance is still low, with a value of only 8.93%, meaning that out of 100 people only 8 people are eligible. know about Islamic finance. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effect of knowledge about usury and profit sharing on interest in savings in Islamic banks. This research uses a questionnaire method and is a quantitative research. The population in this study were students of the Islamic University of Malang. From the results of the study, it is known that knowledge of usage & profit sharing has a positive and significant effect on interest in savings in Islamic banks.
Comment on “Why High-Order Polynomials Should Not Be Used in Regression Discontinuity Designs”
Authors: Albada Melle R.
Published: August 2024

Gelman and Imbens (2019) argue against using global high-order polynomial models in regression discontinuity designs, recommending local linear or quadratic models instead. This comment revisits two of their arguments, showing they are contingent on specific contexts and interpretations. First, the extreme weights associated with global high-order polynomial models only occur if the distribution of the running variable has parts with few observations. Moreover, a bootstrap aggregating procedure shows that their impact on the estimated treatment effect is relatively small, approximately 13% for the most affected models. Second, I establish that local models can also yield excessive false positive findings, even when using best-practice modeling methods, and that this problem worsens as the sample size grows. These results improve our understanding of the limitations of global high-order polynomial models and suggest that researchers should routinely investigate false positive rates in their study.
Forward Mentoring: A Reverse Mentoring Initiative to Enhance Cultural Competency and Promote Academic Leadership Capacity
Authors: Doles Mali , Dasgupta Aneesha , Ribera Amy , Doles Jason
Published: August 2024

Inadequate cultural competency is a significant barrier that hinders inclusivity, acceptance, and belonging. Programming to enhance cultural competency in the workplace often involves trainings, workshops, seminars, or other group-based didactic offerings. While helpful, these options are often not set up for engaging in robust individual exploration and self-reflection – both critical aspects of developing cultural competence. Reverse mentoring leverages the often more diverse composition of the greater workforce to help broaden the perspectives of senior leaders through honest, personal, and reflective discourse. If approached with curiosity, humility, and openness, reverse mentoring can be a powerful tool to enhance cultural competency among senior leaders/faculty as well as to promote mentor (junior colleague) self-efficacy. Here we describe the initial design and implementation of a reverse mentoring program (Forward Mentoring) at the Indiana University School of Medicine. We introduce the Forward Mentoring framework, outline the programmatic design, and present an evaluation plan that assesses learning, growth, satisfaction, and program efficacy. Evaluation data from a limited pilot is presented and future directions discussed.

Training Against Human and Generative-AI Social Engineering Attacks with Cognitive Models
Authors: Malloy Tyler , Ferreira Maria José , Fang Fei , Gonzalez Cleotilde
Published: August 2024

Social engineering attacks are commonly used by cybercriminals to gain valuable and sensitive data. Although the concern of attackers using AI-generated content is serious, training against social engineering attacks is typically based on simple human-designed emails. Our research introduces an experimental paradigm to determine whether there is a difference in the detection of human-generated and AI-generated emails. The behavioral results show that emails written by humans and stylized by Generative-AI models are more challenging for end-users. Alongside this novel experiment, we propose a cognitive model that can be used to predict end-user behavior during training, with the potential to improve the quality of examples used during training and the training feedback. Overall, the contributions of this work are, first, the outline of some limitations to current social engineering training methods and, second, pinpointing a potential solution to these limitations through the use of a cognitive model to improve learning outcomes.

Authors: de Moor Elisabeth Louise , Bodden Denise , Branje Susan
Published: August 2024

Psychopathology can play an important role in the lives of adolescents. However, no research has as of yet examined the role of psychopathology centrality in the course of psychopathology and well-being in adolescence. The present study examined the role of psychopathology centrality in the stability of psychopathology and in the association between psychopathology and satisfaction with life, both across a one-year period, using a sample of 82 Dutch adolescents (M = 16.5 years-old, 74.4% girls) diagnosed with a depressive, anxiety, and/or eating disorder. Psychopathology centrality was correlated positively with psychopathology and negatively with satisfaction with life. Psychopathology was less stable and, tentatively, the link between psychopathology centrality with satisfaction with life less strong for adolescents with higher psychopathology centrality.

There is a critical gap in minority stress research in Kazakhstan, where the rights and dignity of sexual and gender expansive (SGE) people have been under increasing threat. This brief report investigated minority stress processes in a sample of cisgender gay, bisexual, and other men (MSM) and transgender and nonbinary individuals who have sex with men (TSM) enrolled in a behavioral HIV prevention trial in Kazakhstan. Baseline data from 629 MSM and TSM were used to analyze the rates of and associations between victimization, discrimination, and internalized stigma and symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress. Descriptive analyses showed that 68% of the study participants experienced at least one of 16 forms of victimization and 32% one of 8 domains of discrimination within the past six months. Meanwhile, 28%, 37%, and 21% of the study participants reported experiencing at least moderate levels of depression, anxiety, and stress, respectively, within the past one week. Multivariable regression analyses identified victimization and discrimination as significant predictors of all psychological distress indicators. Internalized stigma significantly predicted depression. The study findings corroborated the minority stress model for MSM and TSM in Kazakhstan.

Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This disease represents a significant global public health challenge. Consequently, a stochastic differential equation model of tuberculosis has been developed. In this context, an analysis examines the impact of complete treatment on the disease-free population distribution, duration of disease-free status, and the probability of remaining disease-free. The analysis shows that as the rate of complete treatment increases, the probability of achieving disease-free status rises, the duration of remaining disease-free shortens, and the number of disease-free individuals grows over time.

In mathematics education, problem-solving is a core element that involves stages for analyzing the problem, planning a solution, applying strategies, and reviewing the results. In the Industrial Engineering Study Program, the ability to problem-solve in optimization mathematics plays a crucial role. This ability can be used as a foundation for minimizing costs, designing production processes, and more. The aim of this research is to determine students' problem-solving abilities in solving problems related to multivariable optimization mathematics analytically without constraints. This study is a descriptive qualitative research and was conducted with six students as research subjects. The instruments used include test questions and interview guidelines. The results show that subjects with low problem-solving abilities tend to only perform two problem-solving stages: understanding the problem and planning the solution. However, they do not execute the plan smoothly and fail to review it. Subjects in the moderate category perform three problem-solving stages, including understanding the problem, choosing a solution strategy, and implementing the plan. Subjects in this category often lack precision in calculations and miss the step of reviewing their answers. Subjects with high problem-solving abilities effectively perform all four problem-solving stages: understanding the problem, creating a solution plan, executing the plan, and reviewing the steps until the final result.

Fuente Vanderbilt o la Fuente de los atlantes (1924), un emblema de la actividad escultórica femenina estadounidense en Santa Beatriz
Authors: Esquivel Ortiz Omar Gonzalo
Published: August 2024

La Fuente de los atlantes (1924), que se ubica en la quinta cuadra de la avenida Arequipa en el barrio de Santa Beatriz del Cercado de Lima, es una reproducción en bronce de una pieza original que modeló la millonaria escultora Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, en 1913. Fue el tercer monumento que se emplazó en dicho barrio, y el segundo que reiteró simbólicamente nuestra sujeción económica con Estados Unidos después del Monumento a Jorge Washington (1922). Su aparente carácter ornamental y su centenaria trayectoria, han influido en el relego de su valor escultórico durante muchos años y, probablemente, desde que fue trasladada a Lima, pues las memorias que la propia escultora escribió y los bocetos que hizo de esta pieza, sugieren que poseyó un intrínseco carácter poético que desafió la convención escultórica de cariátides griegas al reemplazarlas por atlantes. Bajo este nuevo espíritu de revisión y de análisis, el presente artículo ha sido dividido en dos secciones: 1. Sobre el contraste entre el supuesto sentido ornamental que fue atribuido a esta pieza por los gestores del monumento y la invisibilizada actividad escultórica de Gertrude Vanderbilt, también llamada Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney, nombre de su esposo; y 2. Sobre los significados personales y el progresivo trabajo artístico de composición de la Fuente Vanderbilt en la línea de desarrollo de su destacada trayectoria como escultora.

AbstractThe Fountain of the Atlanteans (1924), located on the fifth block of Arequipa Avenue in the Santa Beatriz neighborhood of Cercado de Lima, is a bronze reproduction of an original piece modeled by the millionaire sculptor Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney in 1913. It was the third monument in that neighborhood and the second that symbolically reiterated our economic attachment to the United States after the Monument to George Washington (1922). Its prominent ornamental character and its centennial trajectory have influenced the relegation of its sculptural value for many years and, probably, since it was moved to Lima since the memoirs that the sculptor herself wrote and the sketches, she made of this piece suggest that it possessed an intrinsic poetic character that challenged the sculptural convention of Greek caryatids by replacing them with atlantes. On the contrast between the supposed ornamental sense attributed to this piece by the managers of the monument and the invisible sculptural activity of Gertrude Vanderbilt, also called Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney, her husband’s name; and 2. On the personal meanings and the progressive artistic work of composition of the Vanderbilt Fountain inthe line of development of her impressive trajectory as a sculptor.

Unraveling Zinner Syndrome: Insights from a distinct case
Authors: Guerra João Ferreira , Pina João Magalhães , Andrade Vanessa , Brito Lança Miguel , Campos Pinheiro Luís
Published: August 2024

Zinner Syndrome (ZS) is a rare congenital malformation characterized by a triad of unilateral renal agenesis, ipsilateral seminal vesicle cyst, and ejaculatory duct obstruction. Typically discovered incidentally in the second to fourth decades of life, it presents with varied symptoms, including lower urinary tract symptoms, painful ejaculation, hemospermia, perineal pain, and infertility in 45% of cases.
This article describes the case of ZS, highlighting the diagnostic and management approaches. Diagnosis relies on imaging techniques: ultrasound for initial assessment, computed tomography (CT) for detailed anatomical information and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as the gold standard for its superior soft-tissue contrast. Treatment depends on symptom severity and cyst size, ranging from conservative management for asymptomatic patients to surgical intervention for symptomatic cases. The primary surgical treatment involves the removal of the seminal vesicle cysts, which can effectively relieve symptoms such as pain, urinary discomfort, and ejaculatory dysfunction, thereby significantly enhancing the patient's quality of life. Minimally invasive laparoscopic or robotic surgery is preferred for its reduced morbidity and shorter recovery time. Infertility management includes surgical relief of ejaculatory duct obstruction and assisted reproductive technologies when necessary. Regular follow-up is essential for monitoring recurrences. Future research should focus on long-term outcomes and standardized management protocols to improve patient quality of life.

Published: August 2024

У статті висвітлено педагогічні умови та схарактеризовано структурно-функціональну модель формування предметно-методичної компетентності майбутніх учителів фізичної культури. Системоутворювальним складником педагогічної діяльності сучасного вчителя фізичної культури стає предметно-методична діяльність, яка, з одного боку, пов’язана з методами навчання, з іншого – з уявленнями про педагогічну діяльність, у генезі якої з’являються специфічні дії, спрямовані на конструювання, вибір та використання цих методів як способів організації педагогом навчально-оздоровчої діяльності школярів. В авторському розумінні процес професійно-педагогічної підготовки відбувається в середовищі ЗВО, в якому студент існує і формується як особистість, опановує навички педагогічної діяльності та розвиває в собі значущі для даної професії якості та властивості особистості. Припущено, що згенеровані педагогічні умови якісно покращуватимуть функціонування студентів в освітньому середовищі ЗВО. Виокремлені педагогічні умови становлять той простір освітнього процесу, в якому студент може здійснювати саморегулювання та самовиховання себе як суб’єкта предметно-методичної фахової діяльності відповідно до вимог педагогічної професії та своїх можливостей.  Підсумовано, перелік педагогічних умов, які, потенційно, ефективно впливатимуть на динаміку формування предметно-методичної компетентності майбутніх вчителів фізичної культури (забезпечення професійної мотивації студентів до методично доцільної професійної діяльності для збереження та зміцнення здоров’я учнів; розширення й актуалізація змісту підготовки майбутніх вчителів фізичної культури з метою систематизації предметно-методичних знань студентів; створення практико-зорієнтованого предметного середовища підготовки майбутніх вчителів фізичної культури; організація педагогічної підтримки самоосвітньої діяльності студентів щодо створення власних предметно-методичних навчальних продуктів). Структурно-функціональна модель процесу формування предметно-методичної компетентності майбутніх вчителів фізичної культури в освітньому процесі ЗВО виступає засобом, спрямованим на реалізацію мети дослідження. Запропонована модель складається з п’яти блоків, кожен з яких має відповідне функціональне навантаження (цільовий, теоретико-методологічний, змістовно-технологічний, контрольно-аналітичний й характеризується взаємозв’язком всіх її структурних елементів і відображає комплексну реалізацію усіх визначених у дослідженні педагогічних умов.

Yoga and yogins in the second part of the Bhagavata Purana
Authors: Zavhorodnii Yurii
Published: August 2024

The article examines the yogic problematic, which has not yet become the subject of separate historical-philosophical research. All cases of using in the second part of the Bhagavata Purana words with the base yoga, other related terms and contexts are analyzed. It was found that the defining and dominant version of yoga in the text is its theistic version (bhakti-yoga), which is obviously a modification of the teachings of such philosophical schools as Vedānta, Sāṁkhya, and Yoga. In those cases in which it may be about yoga other than bhakti, polemical motifs appear in the work. Yogins are depicted as able to establish the necessary communication with other, non-human worlds, realizing at the same time the maximum possible for a person, the ultimate (i.e. soteriological) ideal. The Bhāgavata-purāṇa, reports not only about yoga and yogins in earthly conditions, but also about yogic practice in supermundane realities. Yoga, according to the Bhāgavata-purāṇa, appears not as a human creation, but as an eternal cosmic archetype.
China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC): Security Threats and Challenges for Pakistan and China
Authors: Ahmad Faisal , Hussain Asma , Abbas Sibtain
Published: August 2024

The two countries being strategic partners, both Pakistan and China are confronted with a number of security threats and challenges in their respective regions. Internal security threats are a burning issue for Pakistan they include; terrorism, insurgency, sectarian violence, and separatist movements. These threats are often associated with various outside agents, especially countries, and neighbors in this case India and Afghanistan. Globally, China is now perceived as an emergent power and continues to be checked, especially, by powers such as America. In its own region, China too is not immune to security threats with the territorial disputes regarding the South China Sea or the border tensions with India. It is therefore expected that Pakistan like any ally to China will actively engage in coming up with ways and means of combating the above security threats and challenges.
On the separation of powers and the separation of state and Church: Remarks on the resignation of the Hungarian president
Authors: Csink Lóránt
Published: August 2024

The resignation of the Hungarian president in February 2024 not only proved to be a political issue, but also raised important questions of constitutional law. The event raised fundamental questions about issues such as parliamentarism, the separation of powers, political responsibility, and the separation of church and state. This paper presents a theoretic analysis, examining why reality seems to differ from constitutional law textbooks. Constitutionalists have generally interpreted the separation of church and state in an institutional way, considering the relationship between the various “structures”. In this paper, however, a different aspect of the topic has emerged, namely the intertwining of church and state positions. How should situations be handled when church leaders are involved in politics? This paper concludes that the relationship between the president and the government has changed drastically, even though the text of the constitution remains unaltered. This change has introduced the political responsibility of the president, an aspect that previously seemed unthinkable. Another aspect relates to the separation of church and state. It has become evident that this relationship is not just a structural matter, but one that also involves personal relationships.
Penerapan Pendekatan Pembelajaran Berbasis Masalah dalam Meningkatkan Keterampilan Pemecahan Masalah Siswa Sekolah Menengah
Authors: Ananda Sustia , Mulhamah Mulhamah
Published: August 2024

Abstrak: Penelitian ini merupakan tinjauan pustaka sistematis yang bertujuan untuk menyelidiki penerapan Pendekatan Pembelajaran Berbasis Masalah (PBL) dalam meningkatkan keterampilan pemecahan masalah siswa sekolah menengah. Sumber literatur diperoleh dari berbagai database akademik seperti Google Scholar, DOAJ, dan Scopus, dengan rentang terbitan antara tahun 2018 hingga 2024. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa PBL telah terbukti efektif dalam meningkatkan keterampilan pemecahan masalah siswa. Meskipun demikian, terdapat beberapa kekosongan yang perlu diteliti lebih lanjut untuk meningkatkan pemahaman dan efektivitas PBL. Salah satu kekosongan utama adalah kurangnya penelitian yang secara khusus mengeksplorasi integrasi PBL dengan kurikulum yang ada dan metode pembelajaran lainnya. Penelitian yang lebih mendalam tentang bagaimana PBL dapat terintegrasi secara efektif dalam berbagai konteks kurikulum dan dampaknya terhadap pencapaian tujuan pembelajaran menjadi sangat penting. Topik penelitian yang mendesak adalah mengenai pengaruh faktor-faktor kontekstual, seperti lingkungan belajar dan dukungan guru, terhadap keberhasilan implementasi PBL. Penelitian yang lebih komprehensif tentang bagaimana faktor-faktor ini memengaruhi efektivitas PBL dan strategi terbaik untuk mengoptimalkannya akan memberikan wawasan berharga bagi praktisi pendidikan.Abstract: This research is a systematic literature review that aims to investigate the application of Problem-Based Learning Approach (PBL) in improving the problem-solving skills of secondary school students. Literature sources are obtained from various academic databases such as Google Scholar, DOAJ, and Scopus, with publications ranging from 2018 to 2024. The results showed that PBL has been shown to be effective in improving students' problem-solving skills. However, there are some gaps that need further investigation to improve the understanding and effectiveness of PBL. One major void is the lack of research that specifically explores the integration of PBL with existing curricula and other learning methods. More in-depth research into how PBL can be effectively integrated across different curriculum contexts and its impact on achieving learning objectives is crucial. An urgent research topic is the influence of contextual factors, such as the learning environment and teacher support, on the success of PBL implementation. More comprehensive research into how these factors affect the effectiveness of PBL and the best strategies to optimize them will provide valuable insights for education practitioners.

Background: The association of moderate and severe dementia with low body mass index (BMI) is well described, but weight decline seems to also occur in individuals with preclinical neuropathologies. Considering that up to one-fifth of individuals with normal cognition meet the criteria for a dementia-related neuropathological diagnosis, autopsy studies are key to detecting preclinical neurodegenerative and cerebrovascular diseases that could be underlying weight changes. Objective: We investigated the association between dementia-related brain lesions and BMI and evaluated whether the cognitive function was a mediator of this association. Methods: In 1,170 participants, sociodemographic data, clinical history, and cognitive post-mortem evaluation were assessed with an informant. Neuropathological evaluation was performed in all cases. Linear regression models were used to investigate the association between neuropathological lesions (exposure variable) and BMI (outcome) adjusted for demographic, clinical, and cognitive variables in the whole sample, and in only those with normal cognition. Corrections for multiple comparisons were performed. In addition, a mediation analysis was performed to investigate the direct and indirect effects of cognitive abilities on the association between neuropathology and BMI. Results: Individuals with lower BMI had a higher burden of neuropathological lesions and poorer cognitive abilities. Only neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) and neuropathological comorbidity were associated with low BMI, while other neurodegenerative and cerebrovascular lesions were not. NFT were indirectly associated with BMI through cognitive abilities, and also directly, even in participants with normal cognition. Conclusions: Neurofibrillary tangles were directly associated with low BMI even in individuals with preclinical Alzheimer’s disease.
