Published: December 2024

Bagi pelajar dan mahasiswa, metode belajar sangat dibutuhkan demi kelancaran dalam dunia pendidikan. Salah satu metode belajar yang kini banyak digunakan yaitu metode Feynman yang digagas oleh Richard Feynman. Metode belajar ini bersistem seolah-olah mengajarkan suatu pembelajaran kepada orang lain yang telah paham sehingga orang lain dapat menganalisis tingkat pemahaman pengguna teknik Feynman, namun adanya ketidak cocokan mitra belajar menjadi masalah utama dalam metode ini. Sehingga dibutuhkannya media inovatif untuk mendukung keberlangsungan pengguna metode Feynman. Dalam mengembangkan gagasan tersebut menggunakan metode penelitian dan pengembangan, melalui adanya peluang dari kecerdasan buatan atau AI (Artificial Intelligence) dan penggunaan IPTEK yang semakin menggunung. Aplikasi ini diinisiasi sebagai suatu terobosan baru bagi pengguna teknik Feynman untuk mendapatkan mitra belajar melalui pengiriman dokumen berformat PDF (Portable Document Format) dengan AI yang memberikan panduan dan umpan balik yang disesuaikan. Algoritme AI yang diterapkan dalam aplikasi ini dapat memindai dokumen dan mengadaptasi materi yang kemudian dilakukan tanya jawab dan saling mengajarkan sesuatu menggunakan suara yang diprogram oleh voice assistant yang ramah untuk disabilitas sensorik netra. Melalui Study with Feynman, diharapkan dapat menjadi mitra belajar dalam dunia maya yang mampu memberikan pendampingan dan bimbingan belajar yang dipersonalisasi untuk mengembangkan pemahaman mendalam terkait dokumen yang dikirimkan .

Published: December 2024

Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi perilaku pengelolaan keuangan, dengan fokus pada literasi keuangan dan teknologi keuangan (fintech). Locus of control diteliti sebagai mediator yang menghubungkan faktor-faktor tersebut. Dengan menggunakan metode non-probabilitas sampling, melibatkan 150 mahasiswa dari UIN Raden Mas Said Surakarta, dengan menggunakan SmartPLS untuk analisisnya. Hasilnya menunjukkan adanya pengaruh langsung literasi keuangan terhadap perilaku, namun tidak terhadap locus of control. Literasi keuangan secara tidak langsung mempengaruhi perilaku melalui fintech. Locus of control tidak menjadi mediator bagi literasi keuangan, tetapi sebagian memediasi pengaruh fintech. Studi ini menekankan pentingnya meningkatkan literasi dan pengetahuan teknologi untuk pengelolaan keuangan yang bijaksana. Pengetahuan ini membantu mahasiswa menghindari penipuan digital serta memahami pentingnya literasi keuangan, teknologi, dan locus of control dalam perilaku keuangan. Pengetahuan tersebut mendukung pengambilan keputusan yang terinformasi dan masa depan keuangan yang berkelanjutan.

Temperature Prediction of Lithium-ion Battery by CPSO-UKF
Authors: Taş Göksu
Published: December 2024

In this study, the temperature estimation of lithium-ion batteries is proposed by Chaos Particle Swarm Algorithm-Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF). 18650-type lithium-ion batteries are widely used in electric vehicles due to their compact design and long life. The accurate estimation of the temperature parameter of these batteries is critical for reasons such as balancing the performance and predicting chemical degradation. Therefore, in this study, the temperature parameter estimation of an 18650-type lithium-ion battery is made by UKF-based methods. Due to the intensive and mathematical processing load of the UKF method, the parameter values are determined by Chaos Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) methods, and their estimation performances are compared. The parameter values such as alpha, kappa, and R matrix of the UKF method are determined by Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Chaos Particle Swarm Optimization (CPSO), Comprehensive Learning Particle Swarm Optimization (CLPSO), and hyperparameter values determined by trial and error. The hyperparameter values obtained from these four different methods were applied to the UKF method separately and their estimation performances were compared. The CPSO-UKF method became the most successful method by reaching an accuracy of 99.99228% in estimation according to the R2 metric. The success of the proposed method is also given with other regression metrics.

Authors: Kopuz Koray , Akman Eren , Orhan Seyfullah
Published: December 2024

Objective: Burnout is stated as a major problem for nurses. The relationship between work overload and burnout, another problem experienced by nurses, has been examined by different authors. However, the effect of mediation and moderation mechanisms that may affect the relationship between work overload and emotional exhaustion in nurses has yet to be clarified to a great extent. This study aims to fill this research gap by examining the mediating role of compassion fatigue and moderating role of emotional contagion in the relationship between work overload and emotional exhaustion.
Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in Istanbul, Turkey, with the participation of 330 nurses. The research model was tested with Hayes' PROCESS macro.
Results: The result shows that the indirect effect of work overload on emotional exhaustion through compassion fatigue is positive and significant (b = 0.335, 95% confidence intervals (CIs) = (0.243, 0.430)). Also, the indirect effect was found to vary depending on emotional contagion (Index of moderated mediation (IMM) = 0.076, 95% CIs = (0.029, 0.132)). In this context, the effect of work overload on emotional exhaustion through compassion fatigue is stronger in nurses with high emotional contagion levels.
Conclusions: The study's findings revealed that emotional contagion and compassion fatigue variables are important mechanisms for clarifying the relationship between work overload and the emotional exhaustion of nurses.

Published: December 2024

Background: This study aimed to investigate the attitudes of physicians towards death and cancer patients as well as to examine the relationship between physicians' demographic variables, their death anxiety, their attitudes and avoidance behavior towards informing patients about their diagnoses, and physicians' opinions about the necessity of education on how to approach patients with terminal illness.
Methods: The study involved 90 physicians who completed a questionnaire on sociodemographic information, the Death Anxiety Scale, and a 21-item questionnaire prepared by the authors to evaluate physicians' attitudes. 
Results: The results showed that 87.8% of the physicians believed that patients had the right to be informed of their diagnoses and disease condition completely. However, only 52.2% of the physicians accepted that the diagnosis should be announced. Moreover, when the patient was a physician themselves with cancer, 94.4% of the physicians agreed that they prefer to be informed about the diagnosis and survival. This ratio decreased to 56.7% when the patient was a physician's relative. Additionally, 94.4% of the physicians (n=287) agreed that education on how to approach death and cancer patients should be given during or after medical education. The responses to the questionnaire differed according to the variables of death anxiety, practice area, gender, and marital status.
Conclusion: According to the results, this paper shows the importance of the socio-demographic factors and the physicians attitude toward dealing with patients and giving bad news, and try to unify it by using a written training program in dealing with patients and giving bad news and reducing the effect of individual factors of physicians in dealing with Patients.

Authors: Dehghani Tafti Arefeh , Jahani Yunes , Jambarsang Sara , Bahrampour Abbas
Published: December 2024

Background: the urban Health Commission of Wuhan City, China, issued an emergency notice due to an incidence of viral pneumonia of unknown cause in December 2019. The World Health Organization officially named it the 2019 novel coronavirus. Since the course of the disease is not the same in the countries and regions of the world, and the study of this diversity is an important source of information for policymakers and researchers. The current study aims to cluster selected countries of the world based on its incidence and it was done according to the trajectories shape.
Methods:  the data set analyzed, included new cases of COVID-19(per million people) in 13 countries of the world, which were published on the World Health website from March, 2020, to October, 2021 monthly then analyzed by the k-means clustering method using Fréchet distance and R software V4.0.5. in addition, clustercrit and kmlshape packages were utilized for trajectory clustering.
Result: Research results show that, 13 countries of the world were classified into 2 clusters with high and low incidence. The cluster with high incidence included 8(62%) countries. The 2 cluster exhibits the highest outlier in COVID-19 incidence. In the analyzed nations, United States and Brazil exhibited the highest incidence rate in clusters 1 and 2, respectively.
Conclusion: The present findings showed that there are 2 patterns in the epidemic of COVID-19. The first pattern includes severe fluctuations and the next pattern includes low fluctuations. The results revealed that the method used in this article has the potential to understand incidence trends regardless of the time of disease onset. Since the Covid-19 infection process experiences fluctuations over time that vary based on when the pandemic began in each country, it's essential to analyze the similarity and shape of infection trends collectively, independent of their starting points.

A Salamon trónja, a Targum Sheni Eszter tükrében
Authors: MÁRTON János
Published: December 2024

The Throne of Solomon as Reflected in Targum Sheni. The Hebrew and Aramaic targum means ‘translation’, ‘variant’. They are extremely readable, if only because they are not literal translations but also include an explanation of the text, including aggadic material from various rabbinic sources. In the Second Temple period, Aramaic as a spoken language slowly superseded Hebrew. Although we do not know when exactly when this shift took place, but we can be sure that by the Second Temple period it had become sacralized and was on a par with Hebrew. The description of the throne of Solomon has a theological role to play in describing Solomon’s reign of peace. The king’s wisdom is also reflected in the fact that, according to the Targum, he understands the language of the animals and controls them. The throne in its fullness is nothing more than an expression of wealth and splendour, which in turn refer to the King of Kings: God. And its mysterious workings suggest that the Creator God, the redeemed, is allowed to create mysterious things that no one else can ever replicate. That is why the description concludes, “This is King Solomon’s throne, the like of which has never been seen in all the world.”
Possibilities of Language Technology in Lexical Analyses of Canonical Hungarian Bible Translations
Authors: M. PINTÉR Tibor , P. MÁRKUS Katalin
Published: December 2024

The paper tries to attempt an unorthodox analysis of contemporary Hungarian Bible translations by using the software Sketch Engine. An important condition for computer-assisted linguistic analysis is a sufficient amount of textual data. In the case of Bible translations, “sufficient quantity” is easily attainable, since in this case a single translation represents the whole corpus. The corpus in this case is a properly annotated text: six Hungarian Bible translations. The paper highlights the fact that the computer-based text analysis can still reveal new features of Bible translations that are not found in the linguistic and hermeneutical analyses. In addition to the various layers of analysis of language use, it focuses on data like type-token characteristics, unigrams, bigrams, possible collocations, terms, orthographic error types, and orthographic variations of the chosen translations. Analyses show new correlations between translations or prove the well-known connections between translations, denominations, and sacred language use. Data and statistics can be used for several purposes – here, to gain more knowledge about Hungarian Bible translations. Statistics do not influence the work of the translators, and no far-reaching conclusions can be drawn from them. But they do provide a basis for a more detailed interpretation of a kind that is not possible during human reading.

Value-Driven Training of Leaders in the Service of Reformed Public Education. Our paper focuses on a specific subsystem of the Hungarian public education system, the Reformed educational network. After a theoretical foundation, the study will review the characteristics and legislative environment of Reformed public education management and leadership training, and then examine the concept, reception, results, and further development potentials of the accredited training in Value-Driven Leadership, a relatively new element of the range of trainings. Some basic conclusions can be drawn from the survey as: (1) The target group is very interested in modern knowledge about Christian leadership, which is considered a priority area, which also coincides with the needs of the maintenance. (2) The management powers of headmasters of ecclesiastical institutions are much broader than those of headmasters of public institutions, but their knowledge and interest in these areas are insufficient. (3) More than ever before, the organization of training should aim at modularity and a variety of organizational methods.

Dedicated Complimentary Copies of 17th-Century Disputations in the Great Library of the Sárospatak Reformed College. In the 17th century, Hungarian Calvinist students in the universities of Germany and the Netherlands held numerous scholarly disputations on medical, philosophical, and theological topics. The Great Library of the Sárospatak Reformed College has several hundred works of this kind in its collections. Many of these are unique copies, and the special feature of many of them are the annotations on the title pages or on the last page, which contain the dedication of the respondent and inform about the sending of a complimentary copy. The Great Library of Sárospatak owns seven composite volumes with a lot of entries. The following students have received dedicated disputations from their fellow students: Jakab Alistáli Farkas, Pál Diószegi Kalmár, Ferenc Domjáni, András Egrespataki, Tamás Lévai Suba, Márton Dús Muraközi, István Szikszai D., András Tarpai Szilágyi, and Mihály Tatai P., to whom their friends in peregrination and former schoolfellows in Hungarian and Transylvanian colleges sent their published dissertations. The thirty-seven dedicated disputations provide insight into the network of relationships of the university students who studied abroad in the early modern period. And entries sometimes demonstrate close friendships and examples of respect towards each other and the signs of recognition.
A vallás és spiritualitás mint védőfaktor a kolozsvári RTZK vallástanárszakos hallgatóinak mentális egészsége szempontjából

Religion and Spirituality as Protective Factors for the Mental Health of the Students at the Faculty of Reformed Theology and Music. This study focuses on certain aspects of spiritual well-being and examines how religiosity and spirituality can serve as protective factors in maintaining mental health and function as coping mechanisms. After a (non-exhaustive) review of the relevant literature on this subject, we present some practices and reflections used during group activities with the students of the Faculty of Reformed Theology at Cluj-Napoca. Ideally, the work of a religion teacher also has spiritual dimensions. It is important that the training includes reflections on religious, Christian spirituality. Reflecting on spirituality serves a dual purpose: on the one hand, it helps students view their spirituality as a resource for the protection of their mental health, and, on the other hand, it helps them recognize that the awareness and development of religious spirituality is also their professional duty, as it has a direct impact on the students entrusted to them.
During groupwork with the future religion teachers, our primary focus was on clarifying and deepening their awareness of spiritual capabilities and reflecting on key concepts of religious spirituality (such as prayer and the image of God), which can serve as resources in protecting their mental and spiritual health.

The Individual and Social Aspects of Violence, the Desire for Dominance, and the Mechanisms of Victimization. Some Anthropological Perspectives. Where does violence come from? Is it an inherent or a learned trait? Has there always been this much violence? What role does the Church play in this context? These are all questions to which we continually seek and manage to provide partial answers. The theological-anthropological perspective is just one of them. We also turn to sociological, philosophical, anthropological, and psychological viewpoints to formulate a complex answer by examining the intersections of these disciplines to understand the source of this corruption in human nature.

The article provides an analysis of the main ideas put forth by intellectual leaders of the May Fourth Movement, with a focus on the writings of Hu Shi and Chen Duxiu. These leaders advocated for China’s modernization, promoting the abandonment of traditional Chinese cultural values in favor of adopting European models of development. Their views gained significant influence among the Chinese intellectual elites of the time. Nevertheless, it is crucial to acknowledge the existence of dissenting voices who argued for the preservation of traditional Chinese culture and its values. Interestingly, some of these critics, such as Gu Hongming and Yan Fu, were highly educated in Western culture and science themselves. They presented alternative viewpoints that challenged the notion of Westernization as the only path to modernization. Gu Hongming, in particular, recognized the multifaceted nature of Western modernity and offered a comprehensive critique of Western civilization. This perspective resonated with other Chinese critics who believed that modernization should not be equated solely with the adoption of Western values and ideals.

Zwischen Wissenserwerb und wahrgenommener Glaubwürdigkeit: Effekte unterschiedlicher sprachlicher Gestaltung in den Fernsehnachrichtensendungen Tagesschau, RTL aktuell und logo!
Authors: Lange Benjamin P. , Lörch Stefanie , Schwab Frank

Die vorliegende Forschung beschäftigt sich mit dem Sprachniveau von TV-Nachrichten und dessen Auswirkungen auf den Wissenserwerb von Rezipient:innen sowie auf die durch diese wahrgenommene Glaubwürdigkeit. Außerdem wurde untersucht, welche Rolle die mentale Anstrengung bei der Rezeption spielt. Nachrichtentexte, welche den drei Nachrichten Tagesschau, RTL aktuell und logo! entnommen wurden und sich in ihrem Sprachniveau unterschieden (hoch, mittel, niedrig), wurden von einer Sprecherin neu vor einem Greenscreen als Video aufgenommen, um möglichst reale Nachrichten, die sich sprachlich unterscheiden, als Stimuli verwenden zu können, und gleichzeitig zu verhindern, dass unsere Versuchspersonen durch Kenntnis der konkreten Sendung beeinflusst werden. Mittels einer Online-Studie bekamen diese randomisiert eines der drei Nachrichtenvideos präsentiert und beantworteten im Anschluss verschiedene Fragen (u. a. Wissenstest sowie Fragen zu Glaubwürdigkeit und mentaler Anstrengung). Die Ergebnisse bestätigen, dass ein niedriges Sprachniveau (logo!) zu höherem Wissenserwerb führt. Außerdem fanden sich Unterschiede zwischen dem auf RTL aktuell basierenden Nachrichtenvideo mittleren Sprachniveaus und den beiden anderen Nachrichten hinsichtlich der wahrgenommenen Glaubwürdigkeit, und zwar zugunsten der beiden Nachrichtensprachvarianten öffentlich-rechtlichen Ursprungs. Über alle Sendungen hinweg korrelierte wahrgenommenes Sprachniveau signifikant sowohl mit Glaubwürdigkeit als auch mit berichteter mentaler Anstrengung.
The present research deals with the language level of TV news and its effects on the knowledge acquisition of recipients as well as on their perceived credibility. The role of mental effort in reception was also investigated. News texts, which were taken from the three news programs Tagesschau, RTL aktuell and logo! and differed in their language level (high, medium, low), were newly recorded by a speaker in front of a green screen as a video in order to be able to use the most realistic news possible, which differ linguistically, as stimuli and at the same time to prevent our test subjects from being influenced by knowledge of the specific program. Using an online study, they were randomly presented with one of the three news videos and then answered various questions (including a knowledge test and questions on credibility and mental effort). The results confirm that a low language level (logo!) leads to higher knowledge acquisition. In addition, differences were found between the news video of medium language level based on RTL aktuell and the two other news items in terms of perceived credibility, in favor of the two news language variants of public service origin. Across all programs, perceived language level correlated significantly with both credibility and reported mental effort.

Innovations in Journalism. Comparative Research in Five European Countries is an edited book authored and edited by Klaus Meier, Jose A. García-Avilés, Andy Kaltenbrunner, Colin Porlezza, Vinzenz Wyss, Renée Lugschitz, and Korbinian Klinghardt. Given the ongoing and recurring ‘storms in a teacup,’ fixations on the new by ignoring the old, hysterias, hasty actions, or (too) late decisions in the context of profound changes and transformations of journalism, it is encouraging to find a book that offers a composed and analytical view of significant innovations in journalism. Indeed, journalism needs to deal with changes and transformations in one way or another since “innovation becomes a crucial element for journalism to adjust and to (re-)invent itself in the light of ongoing changes” (p. 1). However, for news organizations, journalists, journalism scholars, and policymakers alike, it is not always easy to decide what to focus on, what aspects to consider, and how to evaluate the importance of alleged or actual innovations in journalism. The authors provide helpful anchor points for discussions on such questions, presented throughout their compelling, intelligible, and well-written book.

The general water quality has a direct influence on the ability to sustain life on the Earth. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of different natural adsorbents, namely phosphate rock, clay mineral (bentonite), peat moss, and soil in wastewater treatment. The laboratory experiment included columns experiment conducted as two factorial experiments. The first factor was water quality, which involved six types of water: river, untreated sewage water, sewage water treated with phosphate rock, sewage water treated with bentonite, sewage water treated with peat moss, and sewage water treated with soil. The second factor included two types of soil (two different soil textures), the first was clay loamy soil and the second was loamy soil. The treatments were randomly distributed following a randomized complete block design with three replications. The field study was represented by a pots experiment that included two types of soil textures, namely clay loamy and loamy soil. Heavy metals such as zinc, manganese, and iron were analysed in the water output from the columns to be used in the cultivation experiment as irrigation water. Overall the treatment combinations and the obtained results showed a significant reduction in the considered heavy metals. In this context, phosphate rock led to a decrease in zinc, manganese, and iron to 60.33, 54.00 and 55.30 mg/kg compared to untreated water which gave 63.33, 62.23 and 78.8 mg/kg. From an economic perspective, phosphate rock, was the most significant among the adsorbents under study, due to its availability and sustainability.

The aim of the research was to determine the effect of 10 years of growing the perennial energy grasses giant silvergrass (GS) and tall wheatgrass (TW) on the content of main soil nutrients, under differentiated nutrition intensity. The following nutrition treatments were monitored: intensive 120 kg/ha N per year (T1), semi-intensive 60 kg/ha N per year (T2), and untreated control (T3), whereby on both treatments T1 and T2 a dose of 30 kg/ha P and 30 kg/ha K was applied before the establishment of crop stands. The small-plot experiment was conducted in soil-climatic conditions of the East Slovak Lowland on heavy Fluvic gleysol in 2013. Over the monitored 10-year period, the cumulative dry matter yield was 266.6; 212.9; 163.2 t/ha at GS, in the order of T1-T2-T3, and 120.5; 96.6; 70.2 t/ha at TW, respectively. The change status (final state of autumn 2022 vs. initial of autumn 2012) of soil main chemical parameters (total nitrogen, and available phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, and calcium content; exchange soil reaction; organic carbon and humus content; and carbon/nitrogen ratio were followed) was crop specific in general, as strongly influenced by the nutrition intensity and by crop cumulative yield as well. Total nitrogen content in soil was changed as follows: +216; +167; +207 kg/ha at GS, and +306; +230; +90 kg/ha at TW, in the order of T1-T2-T3, while soil organic carbon content: +2.036; +1.883; +1.631 t/ha at GS, and +2.743; +2.104; +1.105 t/ha at TW, respectively. The change status of further parameters was positive/negative in ratio of 17/19, thus 29/19 in total.

This study assessed organochlorinated pesticides (OCPs) residues in the muscle of frozen Atlantic herrings (Clupea harengus) and compared with the maximum residue limits set by European Union (EU), Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) and World Health Organization (WHO). Frozen fish samples were purchased from Oke Ado market in Ibadan, Oyo State Nigeria and weighed per batch. Fish sample averaged 300grams were wrapped in aluminum foil paper and placed in cooler and taken to the Laboratory for analysis. OCPs were tested in C. harengus in February, March and April, 2023. The mean concentration and standard deviation of OCP congeners detected (concentration in ng/g) for February, March and April were 1368.74±47.49, 546.07±18.45, 788.40±35.36 respectively for a-HCH. p,p'-DDT had 0.14±0.06 with other values having b-HCH 0.36±0.15, d-HCH 0.52±0.23 in February, 0.00±0.00 in March and 0.20±0.08 in April. Aldrin and Endrin aldehyde concentration were 9.11±3.65 and 42.08±16.82 respectively for February only. Methoxychlor however recorded 1.12±0.47, 0.38±0.14 and 0.25±0.06 for February, March and April accordingly. The levels of OCPs detected exceeded Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs), indicating potential risks to human health. It is recommended that regulatory measures, public awareness and continuous monitoring should be undertaken to stem the effects of this pollution.
