A Reflexive Account of Fieldwork Experiences: Interviewing Tourist Guides about the Meaning of Work During a Pandemic
Authors: Ng Yen Phin , Kaur Balvinder , Dousin Oscar
Published: December 2023

Reflexivity is a methodological practice for qualitative researchers to show how their own subjectivity influences the entire research process by conducting self-critique and self-appraisal in order to justify knowledge creation. Situated within the axiological assumptions, values are an unusual albeit important subject of discussion. Positionality influences the decisions taken to conduct a study. This paper presents a reflexive account of the fieldwork experiences of a doctoral student undertaking semi-structured interviews focused on the Meaning of Work for tourist guides. Literature on unexpected circumstances during fieldwork remains limited and provided the impetus for this paper. Unforeseen contextual factors can alter well-laid-out research designs. In March 2020, the participants in this study, tourist guides, lost their source of income as borders closed due to the pandemic. The construct of inquiry, the Meaning of Work had taken on a different meaning, literally. Amidst the backdrop of a pandemic, this doctoral study proceeded to remain cognisant of the situation at all times. The method used to structure reflexive accounts was to apply four typologies of reflexivity focusing on contextual, personal, interpersonal and methodological reflexivity. Accounts presented include a short biography of the researcher, an appraisal of being an outsider with insider knowledge, the use of Zoom to conduct semi-structured interviews, obtaining a purposive sample, selecting and gaining access to participants. Additionally, the relationship between the researcher and participants was appraised and provided useful insights on making choices. Interviews were akin to therapy for the tourist guides and the researcher showed empathy and respect toward their role in the tourism industry. This novel paper will be of interest to novice researchers who have yet to embrace reflexivity as a necessary component of trustworthiness.

What is Monehedonism? Evaluation of the Concept of 'Monehedonism' from the Perspective of Economic Sociology
Authors: Sağır Semih
Published: December 2023

Monehedonism is a conceptualization obtained by Muhammet Caner Ilgaroğlu, a specialist in moral philosophy, by combining the concepts of Monetarism, which is a monetary economic theory, and Hedonism, which is a hedonistic moral theory. Monehedonism, which is expressed in Turkish as “Parasalhazcılık”, is an economic theory that starts out with the claim that the amount of money and its supply to the market will correct the economic balances, making money more valuable than ever before in history, and that it is the basic value that determines the market, gradually increasing economic, social and economic aspects in social life. The concept in question reflects many problems that arise on the axis of economy-society-moral relations. We consider that Monehedonism is a conceptualization that allows the unbalanced income situations, consumption habits and social relations that occur in economic and social structures where money is positioned as an object of pleasure to be addressed from the perspective of economic sociology. In this article, by evaluating it from the perspective of economic sociology, it will be discussed whether the concept in question is functional in defining and solving socio-economic and socio-psychological problems.

The impact of dynamic meteorological conditions in the ATU Gagauzia on the growth and development of grapevines
Authors: CARA Serghei
Published: December 2023

The southern region of the Republic of Moldova, specifically ATU Gagauzia, offers highly favourable conditions for cultivating diverse grape varieties with multiple harvest utilization options, including wine, brandy, juices, and fresh or dried consumption. Grapevines, adaptable yet sensitive to environmental changes, were the focus of our analysis regarding meteorological fluctuations' impact on the growth of grape shoots and the development of leaf surfaces. Our research aimed to assess the changes in meteorological conditions in the ATU Gagauzia and their impact on the growth dynamics of grapevine shoots, as well as the development of leaf surfaces, yields of introduced clones of European selection. Temperature and precipitation levels significantly impacted the growth of grapevine shoots and the development of shoot leaf surfaces, vines, and vineyards. Aligning these factors with the requirements of grapevines optimizes the growth and development of the annual grapevine growth. Meteorological conditions varied across study years, benefiting grapevine growth in certain years (2017-2018) but proving less favourable in others due (2019-2020) to reduced precipitation and higher temperatures during the growing season. The research findings indicate that the growth parameters of shoots, the development of leaf surfaces, LAI, and yield of clone R5 Cabernet Sauvignon in the agroecological conditions of ATU Gagauzia depend on both the rootstock variety and the fluctuating meteorological conditions. It has been established that when grafting the investigated clone onto RхR 101-14, growth indicators, the development of annual shoot growth, leaf surface and yields were lower compared to the vines grafted onto BxR Kober 5BB. This difference was evident throughout the entire research period but was particularly pronounced during periods of adverse meteorological conditions. Specifically, in 2020, these indicators decreased by 1.1-1.2 times compared to the experimental option BxR Kober 5BB.
Regarding the prediction of fruit yield dynamics
Authors: CURAXINA Svetlana , IANIOGLO Nadejda
Published: December 2023

Pomology serves as a source of essential food products and raw materials for industry. Fruits possess unique medicinal properties, offering undeniable nutritional and dietary benefits due to their content of fructose, glucose, organic acids, vitamins, pectins, and mineral salts. The function of the fruit is to preserve the seeds that contribute to the spread of flowering plants, i.e. the seeds are a way of propagating plants. Fruit is a valuable food containing an irreplaceable complex of vitamins, enzymes and other biologically active substances necessary for maintaining human health. This study covers the period of fruit growing in farms of all categories of autonomy for the years 1995-2018, i.e. the last 24 years. A brief analysis of production indicators shows that from 1995 to 2018, with an increase in yield by 119.4 c/ha, the cultivated area decreased by 58.4%, while the gross grain harvest increased by more than 3.7 times. The positive dynamics in fruit production are not only due to their social significance, which allows for assessing the country's food security, but also to their reasonably acceptable efficiency in the food market.
Dynamics of a diffusive two predators- one prey system
Authors: Mukherjee Debasis
Published: December 2023

This paper analyses a diffusive predator-prey model consisting of a single prey species and two predator species with modified Leslie-Gower term Holling type II functional response subject to the homogeneous Neumann boundary condition. Local stability condition is derived by the application of Routh-Hurwitz criterion. Global asymptotic stability of the unique positive steady state is shown by constructing a suitable Lyapunov function when self diffusion is allowed where as non-constant positive steady states can exist due to the presence of cross-diffusion, that means, cross-diffusion can induce stationary pattern. Taking the cross diffusion as a bifurcation parameter, one can show the existence of positive non-constant solutions with the help of bifurcation theory. A brief conclusion completes the paper.

Published: December 2023

This study examines the thinking process of comedians in creating Stand-Up Comedy material and highlights the similarities between comedy structures and mathematical thinking. Incorporating comedy structures into classroom learning can create a fun and engaging atmosphere while effectively conveying concepts and achieving learning objectives. Stand-Up Comedy, as a solo performance, allows comedians to present their material independently (Utami, 2018). In line with an Islamic perspective, this study aims to explore how the comedian's mathematical thinking process aligns with the inductive, deductive, and analogical methods, while considering the values and principles of Islam. By analyzing the intersection of humor, mathematics, and Islamic teachings, this research seeks to provide insights into utilizing comedy techniques to enhance teaching and learning experiences, promoting an inclusive and enjoyable educational environment that respects Islamic values and objectives.

Authors: Catbagan Adrian , Ignacio Glenn Marc , Gaffud Byron , Elepano Imarzen
Published: December 2023

Introduction: Studies have shown that Asian cervical pedicles are significantly smaller, thus increasing the technical difficulty of screw insertion when using standard 3.5 mm pedicle screws. Cervical pedicle morphology of a sample of Filipino patients was assessed using computed tomographic measurements. Objective: The study was carried out to measure the cervical pedicles and assess the feasibility of transpedicular screw fixation in the local setting. Methods: CT scans of bilateral C2 to C7 pedicles of 94 Filipinos with a mean age 52.9 years old (range: 18 to 82) composed of 37 females and 57 males were evaluated for inner diameter, lateral wall, and medial wall thickness. Results: The inner diameter of male pedicles was significantly wider compared to females. The medial wall and lateral wall thickness of males was also significantly greater except for C2-C5 and C2 & C6 respectively. C3 to C5 of male pedicles had a mean inner diameter of < 3.1 mm compared to C2 to C6 in females. For mean lateral wall thickness, only the right C4 and C5 lateral wall thickness in females was< 1.0 mm. All cervical spine levels in both males and females had a mean medial wall thickness of > 1.0 mm (range 1.47 to 1.89mm). Conclusion: The cervical pedicles of Filipinos are smaller than those reported in Euro-American populations and may be too small to adequately accommodate transpedicular screw fixation using 3.5 mm screws. It is recommended that pre-operative imaging for all levels should be performed when transpedicular screw insertion is indicated.

Authors: Martinez Marlon
Published: December 2023

This is a systematic review and meta-analysis on the efficacy of on demand tramadol for the treatment of lifelong premature ejaculation. Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis with meta regression of trials evaluating the use of tramadol to treat premature ejaculation using intravaginal ejaculation latency time as a measure. Relevant studies were identified using PubMed, Ebscohost, MEDLINE, EMBASE and the Cochrane Collaboration Library. Results: This analysis included 8 publications. Study of the intravaginal ejaculation latency time (IELT) among 599 patients showed that tramadol was effective in subjects with premature ejaculation as seen by the significant difference in mean IELT of tramadol treated patients versus those receiving placebo (mean difference 2.43 minutes; 95% CI 0.93-3.93; P=0.002). The effect on IELT between tramadol and paroxetine was not statistically significant (mean difference -0.58; 95% CI -5.81 to 4.65; P=0.83). Meta-regression analysis showed that the lower the dose of tramadol, the higher its benefit in the prolongation of IELT, however, there was no significant difference (95% CI regression coefficient -0.0956 to 0.0322). There was a significant difference in adverse effects profile of tramadol versus placebo (risk ratio 2.48; 95% CI 1.55-3.98; overall effect Z= 3.79; P< 0.0002) and overall therapeutic effectiveness between tramadol compared to placebo (risk ratio 0.55; 95% CI 0.46- 0.67; P< 0.00001). Conclusion: On-demand tramadol is an effective treatment for lifelong premature ejaculation. It significantly prolongs the intravaginal ejaculation latency time. The overall adverse events and overall therapeutic effectiveness are significantly greater during treatment with tramadol. Key words: Key words: Premature ejaculation, tramadol, intravaginal ejaculation latency time (IELT)

Published: December 2023

Introduction: The objective of the study was to describe the incorporation of breast cancer screening program in the medical curriculum of a medical school and determine its feasibility in finding breast cancer. Methods: From school year 2011 – 2012, a 3-hour module that assesses third year medical students’ proficiency in clinical breast examination (CBE) was incorporated into the pre-clinical clerkship program at the Cebu Institute of Medicine. The students who have satisfactorily completed the module were invited to participate in the Breast Cancer Control Outreach Program (BCAcop). Pertinent data included: number of participating consultants and students, number of patients seen as well as their demographic and clinical profile, breast cancer cases found. Results: Four BCAcop were conducted and 6 consultants supervised the medical students in the CBE modules and BCAcop. Seventy-seven medical students passed the CBE module and participated in BCAcop. A total of 254 patients with age range of 8 to 80 (mean32 years) attended the lay forum while 246 patients (96.9%) consulted at the on-site breast clinic. Among those examined, 146 patients (59.3%) had essentially normal breasts. Fibrocystic change was the most frequent diagnosis with 49 patients (19.9%), followed by fibroadenoma with 34 patients (13.8%). Six patients (2.4%) were suspected to have breast cancer. Four patients (66.7%) proceeded to have a biopsy and were confirmed. Two patients availed of treatment. Conclusion: Incorporating breast cancer screening program in the medical school curriculum encourages medical students to participate in breast cancer control outreaches where their basic knowledge and skills on clinical breast exam are reinforced with actual patient contact. Furthermore, women with breast cancer are found and offered treatment through this program. Key words: Breast cancer awareness, community outreach, clinical breast exam, medical students

Mean-Variance Serum Sodium Associations with Diabetes Patients
Authors: Das Mahashweta , Das Rabindra Nath
Published: December 2023

Serum sodium (SNa) is a critically significant component of hyponatremia and bones, has firmly been established as a risk factor correlated with many diseases such as diabetes, heart, anaemia, etc and the incidence of fragility fractures. Note that the fragility fractures are a general complication in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients, contributing to high rates of mortality and morbidity together with mounting public health costs. SNa is a fundamental component for normal physiological processes, and T2D patients may experience osmotic diuresis as a consequence of disease-related hyperglycemia, contributing to the excess excretion of sodium in the urine and resulting in hyponatremia. Dysnatremias [hyponatremia (<136 mmol/L) and hypernatremia (>145mmol/L)] can severely affect several physiologic organ systems and functions. Diabetes is correlated with many important electrolyte disorders, predominantly affecting magnesium, SNa, and potassium. However, the correlation/ association of SNa with diabetes patients is not clear. This can be confirmed based on the proper probabilistic model of SNa with diabetes status along with the other explanatory factors of the disease. On the other hand, this type of association can be obtained based on the models of fasting glucose/post glucose/random glucose/HbA1c level with SNa and other explanatory factors of the diabetes disease.
DETERMINATION of the BANK CLUSTERS WITHIN the SCOPE of the SENSITIVITY to MARKET RISK RATIOS
Authors: PAKSOY Semin , ŞAHİN Hande
Published: December 2023

Foreign capital banks operating in a country have positive and negative aspects to the country's financial system and banking activities. One of the negativities is that banks with foreign capital are not prepared for certain risks and crises; and they tend to leave the country in the face of social and political problems in the country. The aim of this study is to analyze the sensitivity of foreign banks to market risk and to test whether these attitudes of foreign banks have changed despite the impositions of globalization. In line with this determined purpose, it is investigated by cluster analysis whether public, private and foreign capital deposit banks operating in Turkey differ from each other in terms of market risk sensitivity ratios. In other words, their risk groups are investigated by cluster analysis.

Results of the analysis, for the period 2018-2020 which includes the pandemic crisis have emphasized that the banks with foreign capital did not differ significantly from other deposit banks. On the contrary, there exist similarities with other banks. This shows that the banking sector has adapted to the globalization phenomenon and does not perform much differently than local banks in terms of sensitivity to market risks.

Bu çalışmada yaşlılık olgusuna felsefi perspektiften yaklaşılmış ve bir bütün olarak yaşlılığın neliği sorgulanmıştır. Yaşlılığın ve yaşlı bireylerin ötekileştirilmesi sorunsalı, bilgeliğin yaşlılıkla süregelen ilişkisi, yaşlılıkla ölüme yakınlık arasındaki bağlantı ve hayatın son evresi olarak yaşlılığın değeri felsefi kaynaklardan yararlanılarak incelenmiştir. Bu bağlamda bilgeliğin ne olduğu, erdemlerin yaşlı bireyin hayatına ne tür katkılar sağladığı, ölüme ilişkin bakış açılarının yaşlılık algılarını nasıl etkilediği tartışılmıştır. Makalenin amacı çok boyutlu olarak ele alınması gereken yaşlılık döneminin her bir insan teki için farklı şekillerde deneyimlendiğini açımlamak, bu doğrultuda yaşlılığa ilişkin kalıp yargıları objektif, rasyonel ve tutarlı bir şekilde tartışmaya açmak ve söz konusu dönemin varoluşmakta olan birey için çok değerli bir yaşam evresi olma potansiyelini içinde barındırdığını gözler önüne sermektir. Yaşlılıkla uzlaşmanın imkânının da tartışıldığı makalede, hayatın bu son evresinin sadece onu yaşantılıyanlar için değil diğer bireyler için de erdem eksenli bir varoluşun sürdürülebilmesi noktasında değerli, eğitici bir hayat evresi olduğu ve yaşlı bireylerle samimi birlikteliğin insanın ahlaki gelişimine katkı sağladığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

Bu çalışma birey-örgüt uyumu ve birey-iş uyumunun duygusal emek davranışları üzerindeki etkisini araştırmak amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu amaç çerçevesinde Aydın bölgesinde bankacılık sektöründe görev yapan 324 banka çalışanına uygulanan anket sonucunda gerekli veriler elde edilmiştir. Yapılan istatistiksel analizler sonucunda; birey-örgüt uyumu ve birey-iş uyumunun yüzeysel davranış üzerinde negatif yönde bir etkisi olduğu belirlenmiştir. Birey-örgüt uyumunun derinlemesine davranış üzerinde anlamlı bir etkisi olmamakla birlikte, birey-iş uyumunun derinlemesine davranış üzerinde pozitif yönde bir etkisi olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Son olarak birey-örgüt uyumu ve birey-iş uyumunun samimi davranışı pozitif yönde etkilediği saptanmıştır.

Published: December 2023

Antalya ili sınırları içerisinde yaşamlarını sürdüren Honamlı Yörükleri kendilerine has kültürel özellikleriyle dikkat çekmektedir. Haklarında çok fazla bilgi bulunmayan Honamlı Yörükleri üzerine yapılan çalışmaların da sınırlı olduğu görülür. Özellikle bu Yörük aşireti ile ilgili olarak yapılan ağız çalışmalarının sınırlı sayıda olması eksiklerden biridir.
Bu çalışmada Antalya ilinde yaşayan Honamlı Yörüklerinin ağız özellilerine dayalı şimdiki ve geçmiş zaman kullanımları üzerinde durulmaya çalışılmıştır. Antalya ilinde yaşayan Honamlı Yörükleri’nden yapılan derlemelere dayanan malzemeler için Honamlı obalarına mensup ağız özelliklerini koruyan ve bu Yörük aşireti ilgili bilgi alınabilecek potansiyeldeki kimselerle görüşülmüştür. Derlemeler sırasında Honamlılar hakkında farklı bilgiler de edinilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmanın merkezini saha araştırmaları doğrultusunda elde edilen malzemeler oluşturmakla birlikte Honamlı Yörükleri ile ilgili yapılan araştırmalara da başvurulmuştur.
Modern yaşam ve şehir hayatı ile birlikte özellikle iletişim çağının etkisiyle kaybedilmeye başlanan ağız özelliklerinin bir an önce kayda geçmesi gerekmektedir. Çalışmanın bir amacı da kaybolmaya yüz tutan bu ağız özelliklerinin kayıt altına alınıp sonraki nesillere aktarılabilmesidir.

Under certain conditions of bubble spacing and bubble to ice distance, the motion state and ice breaking effect of horizontal and vertical bubbles under ice plate boundary conditions were studied. Bubbles are generated through underwater discharge, and the generating device is placed horizontally or vertically below the ice plate, and the experimental phenomenon is observed through an ultra-high-speed camera. Firstly, the motion characteristics and ice breaking ability of two horizontal bubbles under an unperforated ice block were demonstrated. Then, the motion characteristics of two horizontal bubbles and two vertical bubbles under a porous ice block, the breaking effect of the ice block, and the water mound phenomenon on the free surface were observed. The experiment observed unique bubble behavior, including bubble fusion, bubble collapse, and oblique jet, as well as the influence of bubble-bubble and bubble-ice interactions on the morphology evolution and ice breaking effect of bubbles. The results indicate that the ice breaking effect of the interaction between bubbles and perforated ice plates is weaker than that of non-perforated ice plates, which may be more helpful for subsequent bubble ice breaking research.

Education funds are costs that are allocated individually to meet the educational needs of children in the future. The key to success in setting up an education fund is very simple. So start preparing now and do it consistently for the duration needed by estimating costs. Estimating the cost of education will help in estimating the funds needed for the level of education, this will predict unexpected economic turmoil in the future. Cost estimation with a micro approach calculates costs based on expenditure allocations. Strategies that can be used to estimate the estimated cost of education are (1) Cost Estimation Based on Funding Sources, and (2) Using direct reports from educational institutions. The tuition fee structure is structured as follows, (1) training unit costs, (2) personal costs, (3) organizational costs and (4) training unit administration. Expenditure allocations are broken down into independently quantifiable education items (building blocks) for students, such as social assistance, teacher instruction time, and course materials.
