Prezados leitores, os protocolos de teste rápido do antígeno da COVID-19 usando swab nasofaríngeo desempenham um papel crucial no controle da propagação da doença. Nesse contexto, é importante destacar que os testes de antígeno têm limitações, como menor sensibilidade em comparação com os testes de RT-PCR, especialmente em casos de infecção recente ou em pessoas com carga viral mais baixa.
Portanto, em situações de alta suspeita ou quando os resultados dos testes de antígeno são negativos, é aconselhável confirmar com um teste de RT-PCR. No entanto, a disponibilidade de testes de antígeno desempenha um papel significativo na estratégia geral de combate à COVID-19, permitindo uma detecção mais rápida e uma resposta eficaz.
Ademais, os testes de antígeno permitem identificar rapidamente pessoas infectadas com o SARS-CoV-2, o vírus que causa o COVID-19. Isso é fundamental para isolar indivíduos infectados, rastrear seus contatos e conter a propagação do vírus. Além disso, os testes rápidos de antígeno são frequentemente usados em locais com surtos de COVID-19, como escolas, casas de segurança e locais de trabalho, para identificar casos rapidamente e tomar medidas preventivas para evitar a propagação do vírus.
Esses testes são relativamente simples de administrar e podem fornecer resultados em um curto espaço de tempo, geralmente em 15-30 minutos. Isso é importante para identificar casos rapidamente e tomar decisões baseadas em evidências. Os testes de antígeno também são usados em programas de rastreamento em massa, como testagem em aeroportos, eventos esportivos e outras reuniões em massa. Isso ajuda a identificar casos assintomáticos ou presintomáticos que de outra forma passariam desesperados.
Muitas pessoas infectadas com o SARS-CoV-2 são assintomáticas ou apresentam sintomas leves. Os testes de antígeno podem identificar esses casos, permitindo que medidas de isolamento sejam tomadas, impedindo a propagação do vírus. Embora os testes de RT-PCR sejam considerados o padrão ouro para diagnóstico da COVID-19 devido à sua alta sensibilidade, eles geralmente levam mais tempo para fornecer resultados. Os testes de antígeno são mais rápidos e podem ser usados em conjunto com os testes de RT-PCR para obter resultados mais rápidos em situações de alto risco.

The RFA Magazine is an extension project of the Herbarium at the Institute of Biology, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (RFA). The concept of a herbarium as a collection of dried plants is well-established in teaching and research. However, this knowledge is not widely disseminated among the general population. The project's objectives encompass popularizing science and addressing the lack of awareness regarding botany through the creation of educational games, accessible texts, and engaging activities. To promote the democratization of dialogue between academia and society, the project has developed activities involving the general public. This interaction occurs through our social media channels, where we publish activities on the Facebook page @Herbario.RFA and Instagram @herbariorfa.ufrj. The project has already published five volumes with themes such as "herbarium," "associated collections," "angiosperms," and "gymnosperms." Additionally, the first two volumes have been translated into English. This particular work is an adaptation of the third volume into English, and it is filled with curiosities and activities suitable for all audiences. The digital version is available for everyone to access, while the possibility of printing copies is exclusively reserved for use during extension activities and for visitors to the herbarium.
Case Report: Carotidynia Correlated to Cancer Treatment?
Authors: David Askmyr , Fredrik Tjernström
Published: October 2023

Carotidynia refers to an idiopathic, self-limiting, benign condition of head and neck pain emanating from a tender carotid artery. We report a case where a patient presenting with carotidynia combined with fever elevated white blood count and C-reactive protein (CRP), nine days after treatment with chemotherapy (paclitaxel-carboplatin) and granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF). The condition resolved after treatment with glucocorticoids in combination with antibiotics. The radiological findings were congruent with caritodynia and the conclusion from the case was that the anti-cancer treatment was causative, supported by the literature reviewed, although paclitaxel has previously not been implicated.

The more electric vehicles emerge, the more electricity demand will increase in each region. This will encourage electricity providers to increase the number or capacity of generators. The construction of a new power plant requires load forecasting to determine how much capacity the plant will build. This study aims to predict the electrical load in Pesisir Selatan, West Sumatra until 2031 using linear regression analysis and time series. Forecasting is done on each sector of PLN customers. Forecasting is done based on the PLN customer sector. The forecasting sectors are the household, business, social and government sectors. The four test criteria were carried out are namely the coefficient of determination test (R2), the F test, the T test and the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE). The forecasting results show that in 2031 the electricity load for the household sector is 120.1 MW, the business sector is 5.7 MW, the social sector is 56.9 MW and the government is 9.5 MW.

Edema pulmonar por reexpansión. Reporte de Caso
Authors: Pino-Marín Antonia , Rey-Ayala Milena , Meza-Cabrera María del Mar , Carrillo-Bayona Jorge Alberto
Published: October 2023

Introducción. El edema pulmonar por reexpansión es una complicación poco frecuente, secundaria a una rápida reexpansión pulmonar posterior al drenaje por toracentesis o toracostomía cerrada. Al día de hoy, se ha descrito una incidencia menor al 1 % tras toracostomía cerrada, con mayor prevalencia en la segunda y tercera década de la vida. Su mecanismo fisiopatológico exacto es desconocido; se ha planteado un proceso multifactorial de daño intersticial pulmonar asociado con un desequilibrio de las fuerzas hidrostáticas.
Caso clínico. Presentamos el caso de un paciente que desarrolló edema pulmonar por reexpansión posterior a toracostomía cerrada. Se hizo una revisión de la literatura sobre esta complicación.
Resultados. Aunque la clínica sugiere el diagnóstico, la secuencia de imágenes desempeña un papel fundamental. En la mayoría de los casos suele ser autolimitado, por lo que su manejo es principalmente de soporte; sin embargo, se han reportado tasas de mortalidad que alcanzan hasta el 20 %, por tanto, es importante conocer los factores de riesgo y las medidas preventivas.
Conclusión. El edema pulmonar de reexpansión posterior a toracostomía es una complicación rara en los casos con neumotórax, aunque es una complicación que se puede presentar en la práctica diaria, por lo cual debe tenerse en mente para poder hacer el diagnóstico y un manejo adecuado.

Reproducing the Mid-Piacenzian Warm Period Climate in the 2020s.
Authors: BLABER Richard
Published: October 2023

The current expectation of climatologists is that levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases, such as methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O), will correspond, in the 2020s, to an increase in mean annual global near-surface atmospheric temperature of less than 1.5°C above the pre-industrial Holocene norm (1750 baseline; atmospheric CO2 = 278 ppm). This paper will argue, contrarily, that it is not possible to reproduce the atmospheric chemistry of the Mid-Piacenzian Warm Period (3.3-3 Mya) of the Pliocene Epoch, 5.3-2.588 Mya, without also reproducing its climate, and that – consequently – we can expect to see global warming of 3°C this decade.
Anhedonia is Associated with Overgeneralization of Conditioned Fear during Late Adolescence and Early Adulthood
Authors: Rosenberg Benjamin M , Young Katherine Seaton , Nusslock Robin , Zinbarg Richard , Craske Michelle G.
Published: October 2023

BACKGROUND: Pavlovian fear paradigms involve learning to associate cues with threat or safety. Aberrances in Pavlovian fear learning correlate with psychopathology and are especially prominent among individuals with anxiety disorders. This study evaluated symptom dimensions of anxiety and depression in relation to Pavlovian fear acquisition and generalization.METHODS: 256 participants (70.31% female) completed a Pavlovian fear acquisition and generalization paradigm at ages 18-19 and 21-22 years. Analyses focused on indices of learning (self-reported US expectancy, skin conductance). Multilevel models tested associations with orthogonal symptom dimensions (Anhedonia-Apprehension, Fears, General Distress) at each timepoint.RESULTS: High Anhedonia-Apprehension correlated with high US expectancies for the CS- and with overgeneralization to stimuli resembling the CS+ or CS-. Results were significant at both time points. In contrast, Fears was associated with overgeneralization in young adulthood, but not in late adolescence.CONCLUSIONS: Anhedonia-Apprehension may reduce inhibition of fear to safe cues, thereby disrupting Pavlovian fear acquisition and contributing to overgeneralization of fear. These effects may emerge during adolescence and remain robust into young adulthood. Fears may also contribute to overgeneralization of fear, but these effects may not emerge until early adulthood. Targeting anhedonia symptoms may boost the effectiveness of interventions built on Pavlovian principles, such as exposure therapy.
Featural blindsight in a 2-Interval Forced-Choice task

Published: October 2023

The comparison between conscious and unconscious perception is a cornerstone of consciousness science. However, most studies reporting above-chance discrimination of unseen stimuli do not control for criterion biases when assessing awareness. We tested whether observers can identify subjectively invisible offsets of Vernier stimuli when visibility is probed using a bias-free task. To reduce visibility, stimuli were either backward masked or presented for very brief durations (1-3 milliseconds) using a modern-day Tachistoscope. We found some behavioral indicators of perception without awareness, and yet, no conclusive evidence thereof. To seek more decisive proof, we simulated a series of Bayesian observer models, including some that produce visibility judgements alongside type-1 judgements. Our data are best accounted for by observers with slightly suboptimal conscious access to sensory evidence. Overall, the stimuli and visibility manipulations employed here induced mild instances of blindsight-like behavior, making them attractive candidates for future investigation of this phenomenon.
Misophonia reactions in the general population are correlated with strong emotional reactions to other everyday sensory-emotional experiences

Published: October 2023

Misophonic experiences are common in the general population, and they may shed light on everyday emotional reactions to multi-modal stimuli. We performed an online study of a non-clinical sample to understand the extent to which adults who have misophonic reactions are generally reactive to a range of audio-visual emotion-inducing stimuli. We also hypothesized that musicality might be predictive of one’s emotional reactions to these stimuli because music is an activity that involves strong connections between sensory processing and meaningful emotional experiences. Participants completed self-report scales of misophonia and musicality. They also watched videos meant to induce misophonia, autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR), and musical chills, and were asked to click a button whenever they had any emotional reaction to the video. They also rated the emotional valence and arousal of each video. Reactions to misophonia videos were predicted by reactions to ASMR and chills videos, which could indicate that the frequency with which individuals experience emotional responses varies similarly across both negative and positive emotional contexts. Musicality scores were not correlated with measures of misophonia. These findings could reflect a general phenotype of stronger emotional reactivity to meaningful sensory inputs.
Category-selective representation of relationships in visual cortex
Authors: Abassi Etienne , Papeo Liuba
Published: October 2023

Understanding social interaction requires processing social agents and their relationship. Latest results show that much of this process is visually solved: visual areas can represent multiple people encoding emergent information about their interaction that is not explained by the response to the individuals alone. A neural signature of this process is an increased response in visual areas, to face-to-face (seemingly interacting) people, relative to people presented as unrelated (back-to-back). This effect highlighted a network of visual areas for representing relational information. How is this network organized? Using functional MRI, we measured brain activity of healthy female and male humans (N=42), in response to images of two faces or two (head-blurred) bodies, facing toward or away from each other. Taking the facing>non-facing effect as signature of relation perception, we found that relations between faces and between bodies were coded in distinct areas, mirroring the categorical representation of faces and bodies in visual cortex. Additional analyses suggest the existence of a third network encoding relations between (non-social) objects. Finally, a separate occipitotemporal network showed generalization of relational information across body, face and non-social object dyads (multivariate-pattern classification analysis), revealing shared properties of relations across categories. In sum, beyond single entities, visual cortex encodes the relations that bind multiple entities into relationships; it does so in a category-selective fashion, thus respecting a general organizing principle of representation in high-level vision. Visual areas encoding visual relational information can reveal the processing of emergent properties of social (and non-social) interaction which trigger inferential processes.
Three Auditory Conflict Tasks to Measure Individual Differences in Attention Control
Authors: Burgoyne Alexander P. , Seeburger Dolly Tan , Engle Randall W
Published: October 2023

Early work on selective attention used auditory-based tasks, such as dichotic listening, to shed light on capacity limitations and individual differences in these limitations. Today, there is great interest in individual differences in attentional abilities, but the field has shifted towards visual-modality tasks. Furthermore, most conflict-based tests of attention control lack reliability due to low signal-to-noise ratios and the use of difference scores. Critically, it is unclear to what extent attention control generalizes across sensory modalities, and without reliable auditory-based tests, an answer to this question will remain elusive. To this end, we developed three auditory-based tests of attention control that used an adaptive response deadline (DL) to account for speed-accuracy tradeoffs: Auditory Simon DL, Auditory Flanker DL, and Auditory Stroop DL. In a large sample (N = 316), we investigated the psychometric properties of the three Auditory Conflict Tasks, tested whether attention control is better modeled as a unitary factor or modality-specific factors, and estimated the extent to which unique variance in modality-specific factors contributed incrementally to the prediction of dichotic listening and multitasking performance. Our analyses indicated that the Auditory Conflict Tasks have strong psychometric properties and demonstrate convergent validity with visual tests of attention control. Auditory and visual attention control factors were highly correlated (r = .81)—even after controlling for perceptual processing speed (r = .75). Modality-specific attention control factors accounted for unique variance in modality-matched criterion measures, but the majority of the explained variance was modality-general. The results suggest an interplay between modality-general attention control and modality-specific processing.
Automatic Temporal Analysis of Speech: A Quick and Objective Pipeline for the Assessment of Overt Stuttering
Authors: Yawatkar Vishruta , Chow Ho Ming , Usler Evan Richard
Published: October 2023

Purpose: Developmental stuttering is a communication disorder characterized by the production of stuttering disfluency, such as blocks, repetitions, prolongations. Accurate measurement of overt stuttering behavior can aid in diagnostic evaluation, determination of the optimal course of treatment, and for tracking progress in that treatment. In this study, we propose a novel method for the assessment of speech fluency, based on the automatic detection and quantification of discrete pause and vocal events in continuous speech. Our first hypothesis is that adults who stutter (AWS) will exhibit more pausing or hesitancy in speech compared to adults who does not stutter (AWNS). Our second hypothesis is that the speech of AWS will be more temporally irregular than AWNS, as evidenced by greater variability in the duration of pause and vocal events. Our third hypothesis is that our ATAS metrics will be accurate in predicting status of each participant as either an AWS or AWNS grouping. Methods: We have constructed a novel methodology, Automatic Temporal Analysis of Speech (ATAS), to quantify the temporal regularities of pause and vocal events within the speech stream. Our seven ATAS metrics relevant to this preliminary study include: speech rate, total pause time, pause count, mean pause duration, mean vocal duration, pause duration variability, and vocal duration variability. Oral reading audio samples from a total of 35 English-speaking participants were used: 17 AWS and 18 AWNS.Results: AWS, in general, exhibited more pausing or hesitancy in speech compared to AWNS, as evidenced by slower speech rate, greater total pause time, and longer mean duration of pause events. Numerous pause and vocal metrics acquired from ATAS were correlated with stuttering frequency, which is suggestive that automatically detected temporal metrics of pause and vocal events within continuous speech are highly associated with stuttering.Conclusion: The automatic and instrumental detection and quantification of pause and vocal events during speech may provide an alternative and complementary method that SLPs and other health professionals can use in the assessment of fluency disorders, such as stuttering.
FDI, financial constraint, and partial ownership
Authors: Ito Tadashi , Ryan Michael , Tanaka Ayumu
Published: October 2023

This study uses matched firm-bank-FDI data from 1989 to 2016 to explore how a firm's financial constraints affect its foreign affiliate ownership structure choice. Importantly, it tests the hypothesis that parent firms with banks as their largest shareholders hold lower ownership shares in their foreign subsidiaries, in part due to typical bank risk-averse behavior. The empirical analysis confirms that foreign subsidiary ownership ratios are negatively associated with parent firms’ debt ratios. Moreover, this study finds evidence that greater bank ownership of the investing parent leads to lower foreign affiliate ownership shares. However, this result is not robust to two specifications: "crisis times" when bank lending is greatly restricted to all borrowers, and a follow-the-customer relationship where the bank already has an overseas subsidiary in the host country.

A Bibliometric Analysis of Book Reviews Published in Translation Journals between 2010 and 2021
Authors: Li Lei , Liang Linxin
Published: October 2023

Contrary to the emphasis placed on the importance of book reviews as influential drivers of intellectual exchange in the social sciences and humanities, there is a lack of attention by researchers toward the potential of this academic form as a valuable research material and data source. This study aims to bridge this research gap by conducting a bibliometric analysis of 1814 book reviews published in fourteen reputable translation journals during the 2010–21 period. Four major findings were outlined: a slight decline in the number of book reviews in the translation discipline, a propensity among translation journals to favour highly organized yet somewhat mundane book reviews, an evident geographical concentration of contributors toward book reviewing, and prestige and topic biases involved in the proliferation of multiple reviews for a book.

The study employed the phenomenological design, one of the qualitative research designs. The study group of the current study was determined by using the convenience sampling method and consists of ten participants. In the study, data were collected through a semi-structured interview form developed by the researchers. The collected data were analyzed by using the descriptive analysis technique. According to the findings of the study, homeschooling services has some advantages such as the establishment of teacher-student-parent communication, yet, has many disadvantages such as lack of educational planning, lack of materials, transportation problems, low student motivation, low wages and unsuitable physical environment. In the study, it was also concluded that for the improvement of homeschooling services, many public and private institutions should carry out joint work for homeschooling services, teachers should be aided in issues such as wages and transportation and families should be supported in terms of physical conditions and materials.
Examination of Fair Play Approaches of High School Students who Participate in School Sports and not
Authors: TAN Çetin , CEYLAN Yusuf
Published: October 2023

In order to improve people's behavior in line with the spirit of fair play, both in the world of athletics and in the social sphere, it is vital to challenge the phenomenon of fair play at all educational levels. All social actors agree that it is possible to establish communities in which fair play behaviors are common, but only with the education that must be provided from a young age. This study aims to investigate high school students’ perceptions of fair play, both among those who participate in and among those who do not participate in school sports. A total of 145 female students make up the study’s sample, including 104 female students studying in the Mardin province who have previously participated in volleyball at their schools and 41 female students who have not. Aside from the demographic information form created by the researchers, the “Multidimensional Sportsmanship Orientation Scale” was used as a data collection tool in the study. The package program SPSS 21.0 was used to analyze the information that had been gathered. The information collected from the participants was interpreted using frequency, percentage distributions, and nonparametric tests. Significant differences were found in the variables of age (in favor of older age), school type (in favor of imam hatip high school), and mother's employment status (in favor of non-working). Variables such as involvement in school sports, family income, mother’s education level, and father’s occupation were not found to differ significantly.
Development of Turkish Reading Anxiety Scale
Authors: KASAP Suleyman , AYAZ Mahmut , ATAŞ Mehmet Sena
Published: October 2023

This study aims to develop a Turkish reading anxiety scale (TRAS) for secondary school students whose mother tongue is not Turkish. In addition, since the subject of our study is people who do not receive education in their mother tongue, but receive education in a second language, it aims to develop a measurement tool to determine the effect of this difference on second language learning anxiety. The data of the study were applied to 432 8th grade secondary school students whose mother tongue was Kurdish and who learned Turkish afterwards. As a result of the exploratory factor analysis (EFA), it was seen that the items in the scale were collected in three factors and consisted of 19 items. These three factors are: “Fear”, “Anxiety” and “Preference”. It is seen that the three-factor structure obtained as a result of EFA was confirmed as a result of CFA. It is seen that the three-factor structure obtained as a result of EFA contributed 46.280% to the total variance. It is seen that the factor load values of the items ranged from 0.487 to 0.789. As a result of the item analysis, it is seen that the items in the scale are distinctive. As a result of the ANOVA analysis, it was concluded that students’ Turkish reading anxiety differed significantly according to gender, mother's knowledge of Turkish, and the language that parents wanted to be spoken at home. However, it was concluded that there was no significant difference between the father's knowledge of Turkish and the language spoken at home preference. The Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficients of the three-factor structure obtained from the TRAS were calculated as .81, .75 and .70, respectively, and the alpha coefficient for all items of the scale was calculated as 0.87. As a result, considering the validity and reliability analyzes, it was concluded that the TRAS is a reliable and valid measurement tool.
Seventh-Grade Students’ Perspective on Non-Governmental Organization
Authors: CİNCİL Fidaye , ÇOLAK Kerem
Published: October 2023

Individuals can encounter non-governmental organizations (NGOs), one of the most significant experiences of citizenship, during the early stages of their education. Individuals with foundational experiences at the primary school level, as they reach the middle school level, gain the opportunity to better understand the meaning and importance of NGOs through social studies and equivalent courses. Determining how students perceive NGOs at the end of this educational period is crucial in shaping education about NGOs and citizenship education. This study aimed to reveal the middle school 7th-grade students’ point of view on the NGO and NGO-citizen relationship. The study was carried out as a qualitative study. The qualitative study sample consisted of 39 (20 females, 19 males) 7th-grade students selected with purposive sampling methods. The data collected with open-ended questions were analyzed with content analysis. As a result of the study, it was determined that the students considered NGOs in terms of helping people and volunteerism. On the other hand, it was also seen that the students did not mention the political characteristics of the NGOs. It was found that students have a perspective of looking out for mutual benefit in the relationship between the NGO and the citizenship. In addition, all the students emphasized the responsibility to support the NGOs. Nevertheless, this mentioned support was more financial, and there was not enough emphasis on the support provided by social and political participation
Change in the Learning Motivations and Attention Orientations of Students in the Pre- and Post-COVID-19 Periods: A Longitudinal Study
Authors: PALANCI Mehmet
Published: October 2023

The purpose of this research is the longitudinal examination of the change in learning motivation (LM) and attention level (AL) of students continuing formal education at secondary school in the pre-pandemic period (PreP), in the pandemic period (PP) during the process of online education, and in the post-pandemic period (PostP) during the new school year of face-to-face education. The data for the research was collected through the Persona 360 software, which is used to support guidance and psychological counseling services in K-12 and follows the development of students. It is known that the students’ psycho-social and educational developments are followed at school by the psychological counselors. The data for the research was collected through the Persona 360 school guidance software used for this purpose from 1,183 students continuing education in 9th and 10th grades at private and state schools in Azerbaijan and Turkey. Within the longitudinal research model, the data was collected three years in a row by the Burdon Attention Test, Learning Motivation Scale, and Temperament-Enneagram 9-Factor Personality Test (MEM-9). The analyses were performed using SPSS 23.0/Windows software pack and ANOVA, two-way ANOVA, and MANOVA tests. Pursuant to the findings obtained, it was found that the students’ learning motivations and attention levels changed negatively in the COVID-19 period for the three different time frames. The findings were discussed in the context of temperament and traumatic stress experiences affecting the students’ learning motivations and attention levels.

The aim of the study is to examine Problem Based Learning (PBL) studies in terms of descriptive and semantic content analysis by using topic modeling. For this purpose, descriptive and topic modeling analyzes were used together in the research. In order to include the highest number of articles on Scopus, the term "problem based learning" was searched in the title, abstract and keywords and only journal articles (research and review) were selected. Thus, 7289 articles in 1987-2021 were included in the study. Firstly, the subject area, author and country distributions are listed. In addition, it showed that the most studied topics were education curriculum (39.15%), teaching strategies (14.90%), critical thinking skill (12.29%) and patient simulation (8.88%). When examined in seven five-year periods between 1987 and 2021, it was determined that the most voluminous topic was education curriculum, and the most accelerated topic was clinical education. Considering the number of publications in five-year periods, it was determined that the topics of critical thinking skills and teaching strategies accelerated more in the percentages calculated according to the topics. It is expected that the results obtained will be important reference points for the studies to be carried out in the field of PBL

The objective of this study was to explore preschool teachers’ experiences with bullying behaviors in the classroom, their strategies for managing such behaviors, and to provide recommendations for addressing peer bullying in the classroom. Key findings from the research include: A high percentage (90.3%) of teachers reported encountering peer bullying in their classrooms. The most frequently observed types of bullying were verbal (65.6%), followed by physical (16.9%), and psychological (17.4%) bullying. Female students tended to engage more in psychological peer bullying, whereas male students were more inclined toward physical bullying.The incidence of physical and verbal bullying increased as children grew older.One of the primary approaches employed by teachers in dealing with bullying was changing classroom management practices and promoting empathy among students.Implementing a values education program within classroom activities was suggested as a way to enhance the effectiveness of anti-bullying efforts. These findings highlight the importance of addressing peer bullying in early childhood education and fostering positive classroom environments that promote empathy and values education. The study also emphasizes the need for teacher training and support to effectively manage and prevent bullying behaviors among young children.

With the introduction of the mobile phone into our life, several social media and game applications were created, and individuals began to spend their time in the virtual world. The purpose of this study was to measure the loneliness levels of students at the Faculty of Sport Sciences using mobile phones. People have been more focused on their mobile phones as technology has advanced, and this has unavoidably led to a shift away from the environment and people. The research population consists of students from Fırat University’s Faculty of Sports Sciences. The sample consists of 146 students enrolled in the faculty of sports sciences in the academic year 2022-2023. The “Problematic mobile phone use scale” established by Kutlu and Pamuk and the “UCLA loneliness scale” developed by Russell (1996) were utilized as data collection techniques in the study. The SPSS package program was used to analyze the data. Female students of the Faculty of Sports Sciences had higher mobile phone usage values than male students, and their loneliness levels were lower than male students, according to our study, and when the values of the students participating in the study were examined, they used mobile phones between 0-4 hours. As a result, in our study, it was shown that students generally spend the majority of their time alone on the phone and playing games, while female students’ PCPU (Problematic Mobile Phone Use Scale) scores are higher than men’s, and women’s values on the UCLA loneliness scale are low.

In this study, it was aimed to present the pre-service elementary mathematics teachers’ (PEMT) evaluations of meetings with expert and peer participation based on van Hiele geometric thinking levels (vHGTL). The case study method was used and the study group of the research consists of three PEMT who are studying in the third year of a state university. Data were collected with meeting records, reflection reports of the PEMTs, researcher’s field notes and interviews and were analyzed simultaneously by two researchers to ensure coding reliability with content analysis method. As a result of the research, it was seen that there was a positive change in PEMTs’ criteria for determining vHGTL. It was determined that they had difficulties in clearly distinguishing the differences between the levels at the beginning, and that in the last meetings, they insisted on the criteria related to the levels they determined and made more accurate determinations about the levels. As a matter of fact, the teacher candidates also stated that meetings enabled them to determine the achievements’, solved and unsolved problems’ vHGTL better. In addition, they stated that allowing them to freely express their ideas in meetings contributed to their professional development in geometry teaching knowledge. Suggestions regarding experts and peers participatory meetings were presented.
