Decolonizing Higher Education in Norway: Critical Collaborative Autoethnographic Reflections on a University Pedagogy Course
Authors: Olsson Fredrik , Fylkesnes Sandra , Sørlie Yri Jørgen
Published: March 2024

Globally, there is a trend in academic development to centralize the importance of decolonizing curriculum and pedagogical practice in higher education (HE). In Norway, despite internationalization, diversity and inclusion being highly regarded values in HE policy documents, efforts towards decolonial change and transformation of curriculum and pedagogical practice in HE seem to be largely ignored. Understanding university teacher education as a driver of institutional educational transformation, this article contributes to the effort of decolonizing HE in Norway. Utilizing critical collaborative autoethnographic methodology, we reflect on our own roles in our early attempts to decolonize a course on decolonization and pedagogical practice offered to teaching staff at a Norwegian university college. Taking our point of departure in decolonial theory and the concept of modernity/coloniality, we critically discuss and question the potency of our own roles—as two middle-aged white cis-men and one middle-aged cis-woman, all lecturers with expertise mainly in decolonial theories, decolonial learning and teaching practices, and critical whiteness and critical discourse analysis perspectives—in transforming the ways that Western epistemology prevail in our pedagogical practices. We also address the implications for university pedagogy courses with respect to future decolonizing efforts in HE in Norway.
The challenge of the global ecological crisis for world politics
Authors: Castro Pereira Joana
Published: March 2024

The ecological crisis is one of the greatest challenges humanity faces in this century. Climate change and ecosystem degradation pose real threats to the future of life on the planet. However, despite global security and survival being key themes in the study of international relations, environmental issues have remained on the sidelines of the discipline in recent decades. This reality seems to be changing with the publication of an increasing number of works that seek to rethink the discipline and the practice of world politics through the lens of ecology. These works call for a political transformation to address the crisis and challenge the traditional institutionalist approach dominant in the literature, which focuses on the analysis of intergovernmental cooperation and the effectiveness of international environmental institutions, such as the United Nations (UN) climate and biodiversity regimes.

Published: March 2024

Ramsay-Hunt syndrome corresponds to a Varicella zoster infection recurrence in the facial nerve’s sensory ganglion cells in patients with primary varicella infection. It manifests by coetaneous lesions of the sensitive Ramsay-Hunt zone, peripheral facial paralysis, and audiovestibular signs. The prognosis is usually good with well-conducted anti-viral treatment. We report the case of a 49-year-old lady who presented with several cranial nerve injuries, including impairment to cranial nerves V, VII, VIII, IX, and X, along with left facial paralysis, vesicles, discomfort in the left ear, dysphagia, and dysphonia. Her work-up in the search for an immune deficiency objected to an HIV infection. This case study aims to raise awareness among doctors to evaluate Ramsay Hunt syndrome in a patient with HIV who presents ear discomfort and insists on a diversified approach to patient care.
Prospects of the Bug mining district as an agglomeration of ore and non-ore mineral deposits for the reconstruction of the national economy of Ukraine in the post-war period

Published: March 2024

The role and capabilities of Ukrainian geological science, production and investment capital in the reconstruction of the national economy of Ukraine during the war and post-war period are considered here using the example of the Bug mining district (BMD) of the Ukrainian Shield (USh).

BMD is characterized by an extremely wide range of deposits and ore of minerals relatively close to the surface, among which the most important ones are graphite, iron ore and iron-manganese, nickel-chromium-cobalt deposits, deposits and ore occurrences of gold discovered by geologists and geophysicists for many years. Numerous deposits of building materials and kaolin are also known here. There are prospects for obtaining local agrochemical raw materials based on the development of apatite-containing ores and calcifers.

The article lists and shows the location of mineral deposits and ore occurrences which arethe most well-prepared for industrial development and investments. The composition of ores and the content of useful substances are given for some of them.

Two powerful industrial enterprises are located on the BMD square, i.e., the Zavallye graphite factory and the Bug ferronickel plant (currently repurposed for other products). They can be used to process the above-mentioned ore raw materials, with some improvement of technological processes. In this regard, the possibility and practicality of creating two centers (clusters) of integrated mining and industrial development of these useful resources were considered. One of them can be created on the basis of nickel-cobalt and iron ore deposits of BMD with an orientation towards the Bug ferronickel plant. The second center can be created based on the enrichment of iron-manganese oxide ores using the technical capabilities of the Zavallye graphite plant.

In case of realization of the entire economic potential of the industrial development of graphite ores of the region, Ukraine could become a world leader in this field and receive significant funds to reconstruct the industry disrupted by the war.

The BMD also meets all the geological and economic prerequisites to become the first region on the Ukrainian Shield for industrial gold mining.
The correctness of the finite-difference problems of the time- and wave fields continuation for the migration image of the basement boundary
Authors: Verpakhovska O. , Chorna O.
Published: March 2024

In modern seismic exploration, the migration procedure plays an important role for further interpretation of the observed data. It is the migration that makes it possible to display the deep structure of the geological section based on the dynamic characteristics of the registered wave fields.

When processing WARRP (wide angle reflection/refraction profiling) seismic data, standard migration methods are ineffective, which is due to the peculiarities of observation systems. All existing migration methods are mainly based on reflected waves, which have a limited registration interval. The wave field on WARRP is observed at distances from sources that reach several hundred kilometers, and the uneven step between receivers is on average 1—3 km. Under such conditions, it is difficult and sometimes impossible to separate the reflected waves.

The finite-difference reflection/refraction migration developed at the Subbotin Institute of Geophysics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine has proven its effectiveness in constructing migration images of the depth structure of the section based on WARRP data observed in various regions of the world. The main difference of this migration method is the use of refracted waves as reference waves registered in the large offsets. At the same time, there is a question of the correctness of the reproduction of the depth structure of the section on the migration image, which depends on the correctness of the calculation methods. The algorithm of finite-difference reflection/refraction migration contains a continuation of the time and wave fields.

The article presents a proof of the mathematical correctness of the solution of the eikonal differential equations and the scalar wave equation by the finite-difference method, on which are based the continuation of the time and wave fields, respectively.

The given comparison of the formed migration images and the velocity models, calculated by the ray-tracing method, of the upper crust along the PANCAKE and TTZ-South profiles allows us to assert that the combination of the results of kinematic and dynamic processing of WARRP data allows to increase the informativeness of their further interpretation
Characteristics structures of the mélange zones in the Ukrainian Carpathians
Authors: Hnylko O. , Murovskaya A. , Bohdanova M.
Published: March 2024

Mélange is characterized by the block-in-matrix fabric in which rigid blocks of different sizes, lithologies, and ages are distributed in a ductile matrix. Though mélange is a significant component of orogenic belts, in the Ukrainian Carpathians, mélanges of tectonic origin have not been reported. We have described the mélange zones widespread in the Pieniny Klippen Belt, Marmarosh Klippen Zone, and the inner nappes of the Outer Ukrainian Carpathians, as well as the typical deformation structures developed within them.

The mélange matrix is characterized by a scaly fabric formed by cleavage surfaces and somewhere arranged in S-C structures. Lenticular clasts within the matrix show their long axis aligned to the tectonic foliation. Rotation of the boudins occurs against the shear direction following the formation of the S-C structures. The rigid clasts somewhere demonstrate sigma-type rotation structures. Some blocks within the mélange are highly fractured up to tectonic breccias.

The study of tectonic slicken-sides and other deformation structures within the Pieniny belt demonstrates the presence of regular stress fields correlated with the geodynamics of the Carpatho-Pannonian region. The main stress field indicates the SW-NE regional compression related to the formation of Carpathian nappes and S-N — trending dextral strike-slip faults. Our study in the Priborzhava quarries records the Oash right-lateral strike-slip fault zone. In the Pieniny Klippen Belt some oblique normal faults of the Carpathian direction are related to the Transcarpathian Depression formation. The study showed that the mélange zones in the inner part of the Ukrainian Carpathians were formed largely due to strike-slip movements. In contrast, in the outer part of the Carpathian orogen, they formed mainly due to thrusting.
Long-term forecasting methods of dates of ice break-up and disappearance at the Dnipro Cascade Reservoirs by teleconnection indicators
Authors: Khrystiuk B. , Gorbachova L.
Published: March 2024

Long-term forecasting of the ice regime at the Dnipro Cascade Reservoirs is very important, first of all, for the operation of hydroelectric power stations. In addition, such forecasts also ensure the work of other sectors of the economy, namely shipping, fisheries, municipal engineering, etc. At present, the Department for hydrological forecasting of the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center uses techniques developedin the middle and in thesecond half of the 20th century to compile long-term forecasts and advices about the ice regimeof water bodies of Ukraine. These techniqueswere developed only for rivers;for reservoirs,they are currently lacking.

The main objective of our research is to develop methods for long-term forecasting of ice break-up and disappearance at the Dnipro Cascade Reservoirs by teleconnection indicators. The research was based on the recordsfor 35 water gauges located on 6 reservoirs of the Dnipro Cascade, including the destroyed Kakhovka reservoir. The dates of the ice break-up and disappearance were used for the period from the beginning of observations at each water gauge to 2020. Moreover, the teleconnection indicators were used, namely 34 atmospheric indices, sea surface temperature indices, teleconnection indices and patterns determined by the National Weather Service (NWS) of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration of United States of America (NOAA USA).

Methods of the long-term forecasting of the ice break-up and disappearance at the reservoirs of the Dnipro Cascade have been developed by searching for the best correlation or regression relationship between dates and teleconnection indicators. The probable of accepted errorsof the developed methods are in the range of 62—71 %, which corresponds to satisfactory method quality that makes it possible to recommend them for use.
Gravity data reduction, Bouguer anomaly, and gravity disturbance
Authors: Nazan Yi.
Published: March 2024

Each point on the earth has a gravity and gravity potential value. Surfaces formed by connecting points with equal gravity potential values are called equipotential surfaces or level surfaces. Determination of gravity field of the earth and the geoid which is one of the earth’s equipotential surfaces is very important for physical geodesy. Gravity values measured on the physical earth are not directly included in studies; firstly, they must be converted into gravity anomalies. For this, in this study precise leveling, gravity and GPS measurements were made in the field. Heights (H) with precise leveling measurements, gravity values (g) with gravity measurements and geographical latitudes (j) with GPS measurements were recorded. Then, gravity reductions (free-air, Bouguer) were calculated at the points. The actual gravity g measured on Earth is not immediately directly comparable to the normal gravity of the ellipsoid surface. Gravity values must be reduced to the geoid. Since there are masses outside the geoid, reduction methods differ according to the way these topographic masses are handled. Bouguer gravity anomalies and gravity disturbances are derived. The gravity anomaly (Dg) is defined as the scalar difference between the Earth’s gravity on the geoid and normal gravity on the surface of the reference ellipsoid.  Gravity disturbance (dg) is defined as the difference between the actual gravity magnitude measured on Earth and its equivalent normal gravity in the normal gravity field for the same point. The changes and magnitudes of the calculated quantities are compared. Changes such as the observed gravity and height data, observed gravity changes versus calculated normal gravity changes, normal gravity on ellipsoid versus geographic latitude, observed gravity changes versus latitude changes, Bouguer gravity anomaly and gravity disturbance versus latitude and elevation, free-air reduction and Bouguer gravity reduction versus latitude and elevation have been investigated.

Published: March 2024

The study analyzes unity in descriptive paragraphs written by Saudi EFL learners at King Khalid University to find out the causes of unity errors in descriptive paragraphs. Paragraph writing is one of the most essential aspects of second language learning writing because it allows students to put their knowledge into practice and systematically convey their ideas. A random sample of fourteen English language teachers and ten EFL students is selected. The study employs testing and structured interviews for data collection. Sample paragraph analysis shows that 70 % of the learners do not compose unified descriptive paragraphs, whereas 30 % of the students write unified paragraphs that discuss only one topic. The interview analysis demonstrates that the lack of unity in the student’s writing is a result of various factors, including the impact of the EFL university learners’ mother tongue on target language writing, as well as a lack of activities and practice of basic writing techniques. Most EFL instructors believe that the challenges significantly impede students writing proficiency and influence their ability to construct unified descriptive paragraphs. The study concludes with several recommendations for both EFL teachers and students, hoping that they address the students’ challenges in the descriptive paragraph unity.

Published: March 2024

The ability to speak English in public with confidence is essential for university students; both for their studies and employment purposes after graduation. Nowadays, employers seek staff who can speak English confidently. This study, therefore, aims to explore difficulties and factors that hinder effective public speaking among undergraduate students at a Malaysian university. The study employed a qualitative method through face-to-face semi-structured interviews and gathered data from a purposive sample of 44 undergraduate students. The interview data were analyzed using an inductive-thematic analysis: identifying natural units of meaning, labeling, categorizing, and organizing them, constructing narratives, and interpreting the findings. The findings showed that undergraduate students face various difficulties concerning English public speaking due to poor language skills in terms of grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and fluency. Additionally, the findings revealed several factors that hinder public effective speaking among students, including dislike for English, nervousness, low self-esteem, lack of confidence, shyness, eye contact, gender differences as well as lack of idea, practice, and audience attention. These difficulties may result in students having a high level of anxiety during public speaking. This study offers valuable insights to educators in overcoming English speaking difficulties among undergraduates to enhance learning outcomes.
Exploring Students’ Perceptions Towards 21st Century Skills Through Novel Applications: A Comparative Study among EFL Learners in Iraq
Authors: Bilgin Recep
Published: March 2024

Many initiatives have been seized to integrate 21st-century skills into the curriculum. They encompass specific competencies under five areas, which are vital subjects, 21st-century themes, innovation, career, and literacy skills. Accordingly, the present qualitative study was carried out at Tishk International University in Erbil, Iraq on 50 first-year students, aged between 18 and 23 in 10 departments through semi-structured interviews, according to the principles of phenomenological research design in the fall semester of the 2023-2024 academic year. This study aimed to explore the attitudes of tertiary-level students toward 21st-century skills through the lens of practical reflections on their social, personal, and academic lives. Specifically, it aimed to address the following question: What 21st-century skills are more significant than others? The rationale for exploring university students’ perceptions of 21st-century skills and their practical applications was that students seemed perplexed regarding the significance of practical reflections in the Iraq context. Collected data were transcribed by the Go Transcribe application and classified based on the principles of content analysis. The findings revealed that reading, productivity, accountability, creativity, technology, and financial literacy were prioritized in each category by the participants, and they had novel ways to develop them regularly. The findings of this study can shed light on some points about the implementation of 21st-century skills with clear-cut strategies at educational institutions.
Malaysian Students’ Perceptions towards Using Peer Feedback to Cultivate Evaluative Judgement of Argumentative Writing
Authors: Xie Xiao , Nimehchisalem Vahid , Fung Yong Mei , Thai Yap Ngee
Published: March 2024

Although peer feedback is a prevailing practice to promote evaluative judgement, its influence on the development of this higher-order cognitive ability has not yet been adequately explored. Specifically, there is a dearth of research that examines the benefit of providing and receiving peer feedback in developing students’ understanding of assessment standards of writing. The purpose of this study is to explore students’ perceptions of how different feedback roles influenced their three types of evaluative judgement of ESL argumentative writing, namely hard, soft and dynamic evaluative judgement. During five weeks, 24 undergraduate students enrolled in an English argumentative writing course at a Malaysian public university were randomly assigned to three distinct peer feedback roles, namely feedback provider, feedback receiver, or feedback outsider, to participate in the peer feedback activities. Thematic analysis of pre- and post-intervention surveys indicated that different feedback roles varied in facilitating the development of evaluative judgement. Despite the limitation of domain-specific knowledge, strategically integrating peer feedback into writing course design afforded students opportunities to cultivate the three types of evaluative judgement. This study translates the theoretical framework of evaluative judgement into identifiable goals within the course of English argumentative writing and sheds light on the cognitive mechanisms inherent in different feedback roles, which enables educators and researchers to better dissect peer feedback curriculum design and student-centred assessment activity.
Shift in the Use of River Transportation to Land Transportation in Banjarmasin City 2000-2020
Authors: Bachtiar Bachtiar , Subiyakto Bambang , Prawitasari Melisa
Published: March 2024

The river transportation in Banjarmasin City is experiencing a shift where people prefer to use land transportation over river transportation. This is happening due to several driving factors causing the community to abandon river transportation. As Banjarmasin City is dubbed as the city of a thousand rivers, this contrasts with the abandonment of river transportation. This writing aims to understand the reasons behind the shift from river transportation to land transportation for the people of Banjarmasin City. The method employed in this research is historical methodology, which involves four stages: heuristic, comprising the collection of historical sources such as data, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. The research findings indicate several causes for the decline in river transportation usage, leading the community to shift to land transportation. These include river narrowing, construction of excessively low bridges, and accumulation of waste on the river surface, which hinder the speed of river transportation flow.

Published: March 2024

In 2018, the Money Compass Foundation has published an online financial personality test for 12-14 year olds in Hungary. Completion is voluntary, and after completing the test, respondents receive an immediate assessment of their financial personality traits based on a predefined framework. The purpose of the testing is to learn about and develop young people's self-knowledge and financial awareness. The evaluation highlights the beneficial behaviours of the respondent and draws attention to the areas where the achieved results can be further improved. The test was completed by 15,933 respondents until February 2022. The authors examine the statistical validity of the practical use of the pre-defined financial personality structure built from the questions of the questionnaire with confirmatory factor analysis in Chapter II of the study. Compared to the pre-defined factors, after processing the answers, independence, as well as bad habits and impulsive buying became an independent factor, which draws attention to the fact that independence can be used to develop financial personality, and to the special importance of attitudes with adverse outcomes.

El presente artículo presenta una serie de reflexiones que se enmarcan en la cursada que realizamos de la Diplomatura en Estudios Avanzados de Antropología de y desde los Cuerpos con Perspectiva Latinoamericana (cohorte 2023), dictada por la Universidad Nacional de Rosario por el Grupo de Investigación de Antropología del Cuerpo y Performance de la Universidad de Buenos Aires. Aquí, sintetizamos el trayecto formativo que realizamos, de manera virtual durante el año 2022, con un alto grado de implicancia y afectividad. Los diversos encuentros, las propuestas y el alto nivel conceptual desplegado, nos brindaron un amplio espectro de posibilidades para pensar y llevar adelante la propuesta metodológica que aquí presentamos. En efecto, el sentido del presente artículo es compartir una experiencia de taller que pensamos y realizamos en vinculación al entramado educación y corporalidades, en una escuela secundaria publica de la ciudad de Paraná, Entre Ríos (Argentina). En esta dirección, nos interesa pensar cómo se han construido nuestras propias genealogías corporales y gestos, los movimientos, las “materialidades-afectantes” (Citro, Rodriguez y Equipos, 2020 -en prensa-, p. 16). Entendemos que el recuerdo de experiencias de movimiento, las imágenes, los gestos van cartografiando nuestra propia historia corporal y con ello el modo de implicarnos, las maneras de conocer y sentir, que hoy nos permite tener un modo particular de acercamiento al mundo.
Insights From the Last Year’s Atmospheric CO2 Measurements in the Urban Atmosphere and the Natural Ecosystem in Southern Poland
Authors: Sensuła Barbara , Chmura Łukasz , Nęcki Jarosław , Zimnoch Mirosław
Published: March 2024

This article aims to compare the molar fraction of atmospheric CO2 measured in southern Poland, specifically in Gliwice (an urban area), Kraków (an urban area), and Kasprowy Wierch (a mountain environment) from August 2022 to March 2023. The study examines diurnal, monthly and seasonal variations in the molar fraction of CO2. Monthly and diurnal average CO2 air mole fraction data are reported for Gliwice, Kraków, and Kasprowy Wierch during the specified period. The results reveal greater fluctuations in CO2 amplitude in urban areas compared to the mountain environment. Significant differences in diurnal, nocturnal, monthly and seasonal variabilities of atmospheric CO2 are observed in the urban sites. The findings suggest that the biosphere may act as a dominant source of local CO2 in summer and fall, while other local or regional anthropogenic sources could impact CO2 levels during winter and early spring, prior to the vegetation period. Additionally, this paper discusses challenges encountered during the use of a low-cost system (CARBOCAP GMP-343) for measuring CO2 levels in the urban area of Gliwice in 2022.

Exploring the role of research in teacher education and teachers’ professional development
Authors: Alvunger Daniel
Published: March 2024

This paper explores and discusses the role of research in teacher education and teachers’ professional development. It does so by presenting some perspectives on research-based teacher education and conceptual frameworks for teacher professionalism. The relationship between theoretical and practical knowledge is discussed together with central dimensions of teacher professionalism. Three metaphors and figures of thought for the theory–practice relationship are introduced and discussed: research as a mirror, as a compass, and as a stone in the shoe. Against this backdrop, a couple of examples of models for teachers’ professional development through critical engagement and enquiry are presented. Special attention is given to a critical dialogical model for teacher education and professional development that promotes reflective learning through sharing experiences and engaging with theoretical frameworks. This model integrates reflective-analogical, critical-analytical, and interactive self-building processes, enabling teachers and students to transform their knowledge and practices based on new insights.
Challenges in teacher education
Authors: Kennedy Aileen
Published: March 2024

Teacher education is influenced by a global meta-narrative that states that improving the quality of teacher education will lead to improved pupil outcomes, which in turn will lead to economic competitiveness in the global context. Thus, teacher education is seen as a powerful lever for achieving this ambition and is therefore positioned as a policy problem. This article outlines some of the key global challenges both in terms of global teacher education policy and in relation to wider societal influences. It problematises the notion that global challenges can be addressed by wholesale global solutions, arguing that liberal democratic governance in the global north mitigates against longer-term reform that does not achieve results within one election cycle. Instead, the article suggests that certain programme/partnership-level changes can work in powerful ways to achieve the ambition of more socially progressive teacher education
Profissionalização docente e projetos em disputa na formação inicial de professores no Brasil
Authors: Silva Maria Angélica da , Almeida Lucinalva Andrade Ataide , Marinho Paulo
Published: March 2024

Considerando a docência como profissão em constante diálogo com as demandas sociais, construiu-se uma análise crítica, apoiada em referenciais teóricos, com o objetivo de trazer ao debate acadêmico condições da profissionalização docente, na formação inicial, frente aos atuais projetos em disputa no cenário brasileiro. Nessa análise, com ancoragem na teoria do discurso, assumimos que este cenário de construções discursivas expressam as lutas pela produção de sentidos em torno da profissão docente e seu processo de profissionalização. A análise dos discursos mostrou que as políticas de currículo para a formação docente, globalmente influenciadas por fatores políticos e econômicos, acabam por engendrar currículos que visam atender as expectativas desses interesses econômicos em torno desta profissão. As reformas curriculares vivenciadas nos últimos anos no Brasil, em consonância com os contextos internacionais, apontam o caráter prescritivo, regulador e conservador que os/as reformadores/as neoliberais da educação postulam como sendo a lógica necessária a uma profissionalização docente que corresponda às demandas da reestruturação produtiva global. Neste contexto, pela via da formação inicial, a constituição profissional da docência vai subtraindo a autonomia e a intelectualidade que lhe é característica, para dar espaço a obediência e a conformação primadas nos moldes reformistas.

PERDARAHAN ILIOPSOAS PADA PASIEN COVID-19 DALAM TERAPI ANTIKOAGULAN
Authors: Priyana Andria
Published: March 2024

Background: Giving anticoagulants to Covid-19 patients is included in one of the standard protocols for Covid-19 therapy. The focus on anticoagulation to prevent thrombotic events often creates a “double-edged sword” with the risk of bleeding, which is also potentially fatal. We present a rare but fatal case of iliopsoas hemorrhage.Case: A Covid-19 patient, 70 years old male, received anticoagulant therapy with unfractionated heparin instead of enoxaparine (LMWH) due to high D-dimer. As the D-dimer value improves, massive and continuous left iliopsoas hemorrhage appears which causes hemodynamic disturbances. Fluid resuscitation, vasopressors, and transfusions were administered following a CT scan of the abdomen. Follow-up CT angiography could not locate the source of the bleeding. Surgery or percutaneous intervention cannot be performed. The patient eventually died.Conclusion: The incidence of bleeding on anticoagulant therapy is low, especially iliopsoas bleeding. Given the massive anticoagulant therapy in almost all Covid-19 patients, as well as the pathogenesis of Covid-19 that interferes with vascular conditions and the coagulation system, the incidence of bleeding risk may increase. This needs to be a concern and anticipation of comprehensive management.

Mahasiswa tidak terlepas dari aktivitas belajar dan mengerjakan tugas yang diberikan oleh dosen dengan jangka waktu yang sudah ditentukan. Ketika menghadapi aktivitas tersebut mahasiswa seringkali menunda, mengabaikan dan memilih melakukan aktivitas lainnya, maka perilaku tersebut dinamakan prokrastinasi. Hal ini dapat mengakibatkan mahasiswa mengalami stres. Stres adalah perasaan tertekan yang dialami seseorang pada situasi tertentu dan dapat menganggu kesehatan fisik atau psikologisnya. Penelitian ini bersifat analitik observasional dengan desain cross sectional pengambilan sampel dilakukan secara purposive sampling. Subyek penelitian adalah 63 mahasiswa Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Tarumanagara yang sedang menjalankan blok muskuloskletal pada bulan Maret 2020. Pengumpulan data menggunakan kuesioner yaitu kuesioner Procrastination Assesment Scale-Student (PASS) dan Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS 42). Hasil analisis Chi-square didapatkan p value (0,011) menunjukkan hasil yang signifikan antara prokrastinasi dengan stres. Hasilnya, pada tingkat prokrastinasi kategori ringan adalah 10 responden (15,9%), tingkat prokrastinasi kategori sedang adalah 44 responden (69,8%), dan tingkat prokrastinasi kategori tinggi adalah 9 responden (14,3%). Hasil tingkat stres kategori normal adalah 9 responden (14,3%), tingkat stres kategori ringan adalah 25 responden (39,7%) tingkat stres kategori sedang adalah 21 responden  (33,3%), dan tingkat stres kategori berat adalah 8 responden (12,7%). Kesimpulan pada penelitian ini prokrastinasi dapat mempengaruhi stres pada mahasiswa Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Tarumanagara (p-value 0,011).

Berdasarkan data organisasi Kesehatan dunia, WHO, prevalensi obesitas pada anak dan remaja di dunia tahun 2016  mencapai 18% populasi dewasa. Dibandingkan tahun 1975, tercatat peningkatan prevalensi obesitas 4.5 kali lipat. Data Riskesdas menunjukan bahwa prevalensi obesitas sentral pada usia ?15 tahun sebesar 31% pada tahun 2018, didapatkan peningkatan dibanding 2013 (26,6%). Penelitian bertujuan untuk melihat hubungan antara frekuensi konsumsi, asupan energi, lemak, gula dan garam dalam fast food dengan kejadian obesitas pada siswa/i kelas 1 di SMP X di Yogyakarta. Metode : Penelitian analitik metode cross-sectional, Sampel dipilih dengan metode consecutive sampling. Subjek penelitian ini berjumlah 184 subjek. Metode pengukuran yang akan digunakan adalah mengukur IMT siswa/i  berdasarkan Indeks Massa Tubuh WHO Asia-Pasifik. Pengumpulan data konsumsi fast food, asupan energi, lemak, gula dan garam akan menggunakan kuesioner FFQ yang akan diberikan kepada para informan dan melakukan pengukuran secara daring terhadap berat badan dan tinggi badan. Hasil : Analisis chi-square dan fisher exact didapatkan hubungan bermakna antara asupan lemak, gula, dan garam dengan kejadian obesitas (p=0,00;0,00;0,021), dan tidak didapatkan hubungan bermakna antara asupan energi dan frekuensi konsumsi fast food dengan kejadian obesitas (p=0,069;0,701). Kesimpulan : Tidak didapatkan hubungan yang bermakna secara statistic antara frekuensi konsumsi fast food kurang dari 3 kali seminggu dan asupan energi dalam fast food dengan obesitas dan didapatkan hubungan yang bermakna secara statistic antara asupan lemak, asupan gula dan asupan natrium dalam fast food dengan obesitas (p=0,00; 0,00; 0,021)
