Published: April 2023

Media is very useful in increasing knowledge, especially in adolescents. Animated media is one of the ways in which education

and information can be conveyed properly to adolescents. Therefore, the researchers wanted to see the effectiveness of motion graphics on the knowledge and attitudes of adolescents regarding fast food.

This study used a cross sectional study design with a sample size of 120 samples. The instrument for this study used questionnaire pre-test and post-test. The analysis used in this study is the Wilcoxon test. There is a change in the attitude of adolescents after being given counseling using motion graphics, namely a p-value of 0.000 and knowledge did not experience a significant change p-value 0.165. Based on these results, it is certain that there is a need for changes in healthy living behavior to avoid obesity which has an impact on degenerative diseases. In addition, there is a need for new ways to provide counseling to

adolescents, namely using motion graphics which are quite effective in providing information.

在物理学里，接受爱因斯坦的真空中光速不变原理、等效原理等信念，以两个参照系之间的“距离”作为自变量，可以仿照爱因斯坦，采用距离的“第n阶”导数来构造对应的“第n阶”相对论。显然，第1阶相对论就是爱因斯坦的“狭义相对论”，第2阶相对论大体上对应爱因斯坦的“广义相对论”。这是对相对论的一种采用泰勒级数思路的推广。
Similarity-based compression in working memory: Implications for decay and refreshing models
Authors: Kowialiewski Benjamin , Lemaire Benoit , Portrat Sophie
Published: April 2023

The ability to compress information is a fundamental cognitive function. It allows working memory (WM) to overcome its severely limited capacity. Recent evidence suggests that the similarity between items can be used to compress information, leading to a rich pattern of behavioral results. This work presents a series of simulations showing that this rich pattern of WM performance is captured using the principles of TBRS*, a decay and refreshing architecture. By assuming that similar items are compressed, the architecture can explain the beneficial effect of similarity on the items themselves. The architecture also explains the fact that when similar items are mixed with dissimilar items, this provides a proactive - but no retroactive - benefit on WM performance. In addition, the model captures fine-grained patterns of transposition errors recently reported. Several analyses are reported showing the robustness of the model’s predictions. We reached the conclusion that decay and refreshing theories provide a plausible explanation for compression effects in WM. These conclusions are discussed in light of recent experimental results. The importance of computational modeling for testing theories is emphasized.
Benchmarking Librarian Support of Systematic Reviews in the Sciences, Humanities, and Social Sciences
Authors: Lê Mê-Linh , Neilson Christine Joann , Winkler Janice
Published: April 2023

Systematic reviews, along with other types of knowledge synthesis, are a research methodology that attempt to find all available evidence on a topic to help answer specific questions. Librarian involvement in systematic reviews is well established in the health sciences and in recent years there has been growing awareness of, and literature about, librarians outside of health supporting systematic reviews. This study benchmarks librarian support of systematic reviews in the sciences, humanities, and social sciences (SHSS) by looking at the growth of demand for support, the disciplines requesting this kind of librarian support, and the specific types of support needed. It also delves into what SHSS librarians need to be successful in this type of work, including administrative support and workload adjustments.
Negativity is Key for Understanding the Interplay between Rumination’s Features, Attention Control, and their Ever-changing Nature: A Temporal Network Approach
Authors: Hoebeke Yorgo , Blanchard M. Annelise , Bernstein Emily Ehrich , McNally Richard J. , Heeren Alexandre
Published: April 2023

Background. Rumination is a transdiagnostic correlate and risk factor for mental disorders. However, few studies have explored rumination and its components in everyday life, or their associations with other transdiagnostic processes, such as deficits in attention control, which may be an explanatory mechanism or consequence of rumination. Inspired by the Nolen-Hoeksema’s operationalization of rumination, we investigated the associations between five features of rumination and attention control.Method. We conducted a study relying upon experience sampling methodology: forty participants answered six items four times per day over a two-week period. Using a multilevel vector autoregressive approach, we computed three networks representing temporal, contemporaneous, and between-subjects associations. Results. The results showed that negativity of thoughts temporally drives all other features of rumination and was the only feature impoverishing attention control over time. Negativity was also the only feature negatively associated with attention control within the same time frame. In contrast, brooding was the only rumination feature to be associated with attention control in the between-subject network (i.e., similar to cross-sectional approach). Conclusion. These results highlight negativity as a driving force of rumination and as a potent pathway in the interplay between rumination’s features and attention control. Although these results appear inconsistent with the hypothesis that impoverished attention control drives rumination, they fully align with the resource allocation hypothesis that engaging in negative thoughts depletes attentional resources.
Differential effects of prior outcomes and pauses on the speed and quality of risky choices
Authors: Chen Zhang , Eben Charlotte , Verbruggen Frederick
Published: April 2023

Failures to obtain rewards influence what people choose to do next and how quickly they execute a chosen action, which are two components of motivated behavior. For instance, in risky decisions, losses can induce faster responses and sometimes increase risk-taking, which may lead to detrimental consequences in some situations (such as gambling). Pauses might reduce these motivational influences of prior outcomes. To examine this question, participants alternated between a guess game, in which they won or lost money, and a choice game, in which they chose between a high probability of winning a small amount of money and a low probability of winning a large amount of money. The pause between a guess and a choice game was made either short (0 or 300 milliseconds) or long (3000 milliseconds). In four experiments, prior outcomes consistently influenced decision speed, such that people chose faster after a loss than after a win. However, prior outcomes did not consistently influence people’s choices. In contrast, pauses increased decision quality, such that participants chose the option with a higher expected value more often, without substantially reducing decision speed. Pauses may improve decision quality by influencing predecisional attention allocation to relevant information, as its effect was absent when the overall task attention was high (Experiment 3). These findings have implications for both safer gambling and risky decision research. Future work can examine the underlying computational and cognitive processes, and the generalizability of these findings to other contexts and populations.
Perceived community alignment increases information sharing

Published: April 2023

It has been proposed that information sharing, which is a ubiquitous and consequentialbehavior, plays a critical role in cultivating and maintaining a sense of shared reality. Acrossthree studies, we tested this theory by investigating whether or not people are especially likely toshare information that they believe will be interpreted similarly by others in their social circles.Using neuroimaging while members of the same community viewed brief film clips, we foundthat more similar neural responding of participants was associated with a greater likelihood toshare content. We then tested this relationship using two behavioral studies and found (1) thatpeople were particularly likely to share content that they believed others in their social circleswould interpret similarly and (2) that perceived similarity with others leads to increased sharinglikelihood. In concert, our findings support the idea that people are driven to share information tocreate and reinforce shared understanding, which is critical to social connection.
EFL Student-Directed Feedback for Improving Academic Writing Skills in Thailand
Authors: Phothongsunan Sureepong
Published: April 2023

Exploring how written corrective feedback can help learners optimize their writing skills has always been an interest to teachers in the field of English language teaching. This action research involves a group of 28 intermediate English as Foreign Language students in the English as a Foreign Language Grammar course with an emphasis on academic writing development at an international university in Thailand. The study focuses on two academic essays produced by the learners over a 14-week semester in which students are required to submit two drafts of each of the essays on the assigned topics. Student-Directed Feedback is used to allow the students to choose between various delivery formats for the feedback and ask some specific questions about their work to which the students need answering. With questionnaires also surveying students’ attitudes given at the end of the course, it is revealed that Student-Directed Feedback has had perceived positive effects on most of the students in terms of feedback particularity, personalisation and higher learner autonomy.

Authors: Alsehibany Raniya Abdullah , Abdelhalim Safaa M.
Published: April 2023

Using corpora as a learning tool in Second Language writing has gained popularity recently. The present study aimed to explore how Saudi EFL students perceive and engage with direct corpus consultation activities in academic writing as an effective method of overcoming their vocabulary errors. Hopefully, this study will provide insights into the issue of raising awareness among both EFL university students and writing teachers about the benefits of direct corpus consultation in academic writing, as well as highlighting the potential challenges students might face. Two specific questions were addressed in the study: How do Saudi EFL students perceive direct corpus consultation as a method for overcoming vocabulary errors in academic writing? What are the challenges that EFL students encounter when they use direct corpus consultation? Based on convenience sampling, a total of 32 Saudi female students majoring in English participated in the study. The study employed a mixed-method approach to increase the credibility of the study results. The study data were collected from a structured questionnaire based on a 6-point Likert scale and semi-structured interviews. The corpus used was the Corpus of Contemporary American English. The findings of both the quantitative and qualitative analysis revealed that the participants were positive about using direct corpus consultation to improve vocabulary and academic writing. In addition, some challenges associated with using direct corpus consultation were outlined in the study findings. The study concluded with several recommendations for future research and pedagogical implications.
How to Promote AI in the US Federal Government: Insights from Policy Process Frameworks
Authors: Khan Muhammad Salar , Shoaib Azka , Arledge Elizabeth
Published: April 2023

When it comes to routine government activities, such as immigration, justice, social welfare provision and climate change, the general perception is that the US federal government operates slowly. One potential solution to increase the productivity and efficiency of the federal government is to adopt AI technologies and devices. AI technologies and devices already provide unique capabilities, services, and products, as demonstrated by smart homes, autonomous vehicles, delivery drones, GPS navigation, Chatbots such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Bard, and virtual assistants such as Amazon’s Alexa. However, incorporating massive AI into the US federal government would present several challenges, including ethical and legal concerns, outdated infrastructure, unprepared human capital, institutional obstacles, and a lack of social acceptance. How can US policymakers promote policies that increase AI usage in the face of these challenges? This will require a comprehensive strategy at the intersection of science, policy, and economics that addresses the aforementioned challenges. In this paper, we survey literature on the interrelated policy process to understand the advancement, or lack thereof, of AI in the US federal government, an emerging area of interest. To accomplish this, we examine several policy process frameworks, including the Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF), Multiple Streams Framework (MSF), Punctuated Equilibrium Theory (PET), Internal Determinants and Diffusion (ID&D), Narrative Policy Framework (NPF), and Institutional Analysis and Development (IAD). We hope that insights from this literature will identify a set of policies to promote AI-operated functionalities in the US federal government.
A Corpus-based Pronunciation Teaching Model: A Conceptual Paper
Authors: Qian Bojie , Deris Farhana Diana
Published: April 2023

Learning a second language is challenging, but mastering pronunciation is even more difficult. Researchers continuously seek new ways to improve students’ English abilities, such as listening and speaking, while ignoring the importance of pronunciation. After conducting a literature review, this article investigates the impact of corpora and two instructional methods on improving students’ pronunciation. The paper addresses how to teach pronunciation effectively in the context of English as a second language. According to the review, corpus resources, critical listening, and shadowing can all be used independently to enhance students’ proficiency in second language learning. Hence, an innovative Corpus-based Critical Listening and Shadowing model has been devised as an aid in the teaching of pronunciation by providing more specific suggestions for teachers and students, with the expectation that students will perform better once they have been taught pronunciation using the methodology. The current study’s findings have pedagogical and methodological implications for pronunciation teaching, learning and research. The implications and future directions of the innovative Corpus-based Critical Listening and Shadowing model are also discussed.

Authors: Deptulska Aleksandra
Published: April 2023

This paper aims to present the fundamental problems arising from the adoption of “the farm to fork” strategy. This strategy poses a challenge both to Polish legislators and, especially, to Polish farmers. The objectives presented in the Communication from the European Commission – A Farm to Fork Strategy for a fair, healthy and environmentally-friendly food system – are revolutionary and quite ambitious, given the time allocated for their achievement. Undeniably, changes in food law are necessary, but it is difficult to say whether those advocated by the European Commission are feasible.

„Jak to inna?” – o dramacie "Renata Słuczańska" Zofii Nałkowskiej
Authors: Wroniewicz Julia
Published: April 2023

The paper discusses the play by Zofia Nałkowska entitled Renata Słuczańska. The author analyzes and interprets the male viewpoints on two protagonists: Renata Słuczańska and Agnieszka Blizbor. In the story about an affair, the affair itself is somehow not crucial – more interesting are the men’s expectations and ideas about women (as sexual objects, as mothers or wives, as guardians of the hearth and home), which influence how they are portrayed. The play proves that not only Nałkowska’s characters are distinct but that her playwriting itself is also different from the known Polish plays from this period.
Wcielenia martwego ciała w twórczości Elizy Orzeszkowej. Rekonesans
Authors: Romanowska Magdalena
Published: April 2023

The article analyses the various ways of depicting the dead body and its functions in the literary works of Eliza Orzeszkowa. Due to the ambiguity of the very concept of a dead body (corpse, cadaver) and the special approach to this issue in Polish positivism (with all its dimensions and complexity), many of the author’s works contain interesting perspectives and opportunities to interpret the problem. The analysis of individual cases (the corpses of a young man, a young woman, an old woman, an insurgent, and an animal), using the tools of anthropology and ecocriticism, offers new conclusions about the issue of the dead body and death in Orzeszkowa’s On the Niemen.

The Early Relations between the Ottoman State and the Orthodox Church: An Instance of "Istimâlet"
Authors: Detrez Raymond
Published: April 2023

Shortly after the capture of Constantinople in 1453, Sultan Mehmed II made Gennadios Scholarios the new ecumenical patriarch, defining at the same time the rights and privileges of the Orthodox Church under Ottoman rule. When in the 1530s, some Muslim leaders demanded that the city’s remaining churches be closed, Sultan Süleyman the Magnificent refused on the basis of (a travesty of) a legal inquiry. A close reading of Greek and Ottoman sources sheds light on the accommodating policy, called istimâlet, which the Ottoman state pursued toward the Orthodox Church.

Exploring the Process and Strategies of Chinese–English Abstract Writing Using Machine Translation Tools
Authors: Sun Yu-Chih , Yang Fang-Ying
Published: April 2023

The present study explores English as a foreign language (EFL) learners’ processes and strategies when using machine translation (MT) tools in academic abstract writing. Eight EFL graduate students were introduced to translation-friendly writing strategies using Google Translate and were required to produce an English abstract with the aid of a machine translation tool. The study used qualitative and quantitative approaches in data collection and analysis. A triangulation process was developed and implemented, including think-aloud protocols during the writing session, surveys, and individual interviews after the writing session. The findings suggested that the translation-friendly writing strategies introduced to the participants were useful in enhancing the quality of their writing. Each participant demonstrated individual strategic uses of MT. Among the various strategies reported, back translation was the most commonly adopted one; that is, they first composed an abstract in Chinese (L1) and engaged in multiple rounds of translation between Chinese and English using MT; when problems were identified in the English abstract, they modified the Chinese abstract using translation-friendly writing strategies to enhance the quality of MT translation output. Most of the translation problems identified by the participants were related to non-academic expressions. While participants were satisfied with the quality of the abstracts produced with the aid of MT, they raised ethical concerns regarding the use of MT in academic writing. These findings suggest that MT has fundamentally changed the process of academic writing in English and call for the re-examination of the purpose of academic writing instruction and the approaches employed.
ФІЛОСОФІЯ ЖИТТЯ ТА СМЕРТІ В ДУХОВНОМУ ДОСВІДІ УКРАЇНСЬКОГО НАРОДУ
Authors: Патлайчук Оксана Віталіївна , Хромова Ольга Ігорівна
Published: April 2023

У статті досліджуються особливості та прояви філософії життя та смерті в духовному досвіді українського народу. Зʼясовано, що духовне життя є однією з істотних властивостей людини. Установлено, що з-за дохристиянських часів українська духовна культура сприймала смерть як перехід до першооснови всього сущого, як доказ універсального зв’язку всього з усім матеріальним, духовним, емпіричним і трансцендентним. Визначено, що для українського національного характеру властиві з давніх-давен господарність, працьовитість, гостинність і доброзичливість у стосунках як із співгромадянами, так і із чужоземцями; обережність, сентиментальність, але водночас винахідливість і хоробрість, рішучість і незламність, героїзм і самопожертва, коли необхідно встати на захист свого світу. Зʼясовано, що філософія української національної думки значною мірою пов’язана з аналізом особливостей середовища проживання та культури українців як визначального чинника українського національного характеру. Зʼясовано, що Г. Сковорода вважав філософію самим життям. Мета життя може бути різною – хтось прагне кращого для свого тіла, а хтось – для душі. Посилаючись на вчення Г. Сковороди, зауважуємо, що український народ із покоління в покоління вирізнявся своїм духом до незламності, самобутності, прагне до вільного буття, адже коли маєш таку духовну ідею, можна досягти «кращого для тіла», тобто кращого для життя у вільній незалежній державі. Виявлено, що український народ у сучасному суспільстві переживає складний період зміни свідомості, розуму та духу, який спостерігається на мікросоціальному рівні, у міжрелігійних стосунках, у суспільстві загалом, а також у сімейних колах, стосунках між родичами. Установлено, що філософія життя в духовному досвіді українського народу виявляється в самобутності, незламності, прагненні до вільного буття українського народу у вільній незалежній державі, водночас філософія смерті поглиблює таємницю існування і проливає нове світло на сенс існування.

Legislação sobre alternativas à experimentação animal e métodos reconhecidos entre 2014 e 2022 no Brasil
Authors: Pedro Desenir Adriano , Bento Tays Freitas Martins
Published: April 2023

Alternative methods aim to replace the use of animal models in scientific activities or to reduce and refine their use when replacement is not possible, which is in line with the principle of the 3Rs – replacement, reduction, refinement. In Brazil, alternative methods to the use of animals are recognized by the Conselho Nacional de Controle de Experimentação Animal (National Council of Animal Experimentation Control) – Concea, which, together with the Rede Nacional de Métodos Alternativos (National Network of Alternative Methods) – Renama and the Brazilian Center for the Validation of Alternative Methods – Bracvam, regulates and coordinates this theme in the country. In this way, the present study aimed to present the Brazilian legislation available on the Concea website that provides alternative methods to the use of animals in Brazil, and to identify the validated methodologies recognized in the country. After consulting the national legislation in force in April 2023, it was verified that of the 34 normative acts available on the Concea website, of which 82% (28/34) are Normative Resolutions (NRs) and 18% (6/34) are Guidelines, Techniques, Laws, Decrees, Ordinance and Resolution of the Collegiate Board, 21% (7/34) provide for alternative methods to animal experimentation. It was possible to identify that, with the publication of NRs no. 18, no. 31, no. 45 and no. 56, from 2014 to 2022, Concea recognized 41 validated alternative methods, which present a total of 14 experimental outcomes. Brazilian legislation establishes a period of five years from the recognition of the alternative method for its use to be mandatory. It is possible to conclude that, although the use of animals in various experimental activities is still necessary for the advancement of science, research for the development, validation and recognition of new alternative methods has increased in recent years in Brazil, which represents great advance for the country.
Sistema de gestão da qualidade aplicado ao laboratório veterinário forense: Revisão
Authors: Do Amaral Jackson , Tremori Tália Missen
Published: April 2023

In recent years there was great growth in forensic investigations in Brazil. Forensic biology has become an area of great impact in civil and criminal investigation which encompasses several fields, among them, laboratory analysis of livestock. This article aims to present concepts, demands and ways to develop activities of a quality management system in forensic veterinary work. Forensics can be used to help in the civil and/or criminal spheres, and in studies and research in the areas of animal, public, environmental and individual health (one health). In investigations, evidence is generally present and may be physical, chemical or microbiological in nature. The collection of evidence must be based on biosecurity standards and respect the chain of custody, which refers to the capacity of guaranteeing the identity and integrity of residues of any nature.  It comprises tracing and allows for its chronological order to be documented and maintained. The demand for forensic veterinary work can be implemented in public research and teaching institutions or in private services, all of which have trained professionals and specialized laboratories that can perform tests and counter tests for technical-scientific expertise. The quality of a product or service is a fundamental factor for its insertion in the market. Forensic veterinary work can develop technical-scientific activities to meet the demands in facilitating justice through research of infectious agents of diseases in animals, toxic substances and contaminants, or the occurrence of crimes involving animals, contamination of environmental fauna, and fraud in foods of animal origin for human or animal consumption. The Quality Management System (QMS), including Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) and ISO 17025, enables forensic veterinary laboratories to adopt analyses using technical-scientific procedures with quality, reliability, punctuality and biosecurity, which are important in legal proceedings.

Additionally, we explore the moderating role of organizational support in the relationship between perceived training and development and intentions to stay with/leave organizations. Design/methodology/approach –The sample size for this study was 204 questionnaires from the different textile industries in Pakistan and use convenience sampling technique to collect data from respondents. Therefore, the population of this research is all the managers of the textile sector in Faisalabad. We use a correlation matrix and regression analysis to analyze the relationships between variables. We also explore work attitudes as a mediator in the relationship between perceived training and development and intention to stay. Findings – The results of this study reveal that training and development activities increase the employees’ intentions to leave if the organization has a weak employee retention system. Furthermore, employees who experience higher levels of organizational support may stay with the organizations longer. These findings show the usefulness of explaining the link between training and development and employee retention. Moreover, the findings collectively suggest that studies examining employee retention should include a wider range of work attitudes that highlight pleasant forms of affect. Originality/value – This study is one of the first to investigate the effect of perceived training and development on intention to stay by using the moderating role of organizational support.

Authors: Syed Zain-Ul-Abedeen  , Qlander Hayat  , Rauza  , Shah Syed Arshad Ali
Published: April 2023

The study validated the association of organizational justice, and knowledge hiding with moderating role of self-monitoring in the cross-cultural environment. The empirical validity was searched and tested from the banking sector of Pakistan by collecting data through research questionnaires which evaluated that organizational justice; knowledge hiding, and self-monitoring are associated with one another. Non-probability sampling technique was used due to limitations in the generalizability of the hypothesis. The research questionnaires were distributed to 150 banking sector employees, while 124 employees responded. Results showed that organizational justice influences the knowledge hiding behavior in the organizations and self-monitoring moderates this relationship. It proved that in the absence of self-monitoring, organizational justice decreases the level of knowledge hiding and when employees self-monitor their behavior, the effectiveness of organizational justice reduces.
L’autonomie ne se décrète pas, elle s’apprend !
Authors: Grasser Benoît , Noël Florent
Published: April 2023

Cet article mobilise une étude de cas et le concept de capabilité pour comprendre ce qui se passe lorsqu’une organisation accorde davantage d’autonomie à ses salariés. Les résultats montrent que les marges de manœuvre dépendent de la capacité des salariés à convertir l’autonomie décrétée en opportunités réelles. Ils montrent aussi que l'autonomie, qu'elle soit accordée ou revendiquée, résulte en réalité d’apprentissages individuels et collectifs, d’expérimentations et de négociations.

Familial gastrointestinal stromal tumor with Fingers with zebra-like pigmentation
Authors: Hayashi Takuma , Konishi Ikuo
Published: April 2023

Clinical studies to date have revealed that gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are predominantly sporadic. The occurrence of GIST associated with familial syndromes is very rare, with most cases showing wild-type KIT and platelet-derived growth factor alpha (PDGFRA). To date, only 30 kindreds worldwide have been reported with a GIST associated with the germline KIT pathogenic variants. The efficacy of imatinib, a multityrosine kinase inhibitor, in GIST patients with germline KIT variants has been largely unreported. Therefore, the results of clinical trials regarding the efficacy of treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors in GIST patients with the germline KIT variants are unclear. As a result, imatinib treatment in GIST patients with the germline KIT variants is not yet recommended. This paper describes a 32-year-old male patient with a germline W557R pathogenic variant with advanced GIST throughout the upper stomach and cutaneous hyperpigmentation. The treatment with imatinib showed long-term regression of the GIST.
